*Whoosh!~*
Davis was outside the sect headquarters, waiting for Tina and Bylai to show up.
"You sure you don't want to rejoin?"
He looked at his secret channel, shaking his head.
"You're an honorable man. I hope you don't die." Elder Aradiel Furiose sighed lightly before he disappeared, leaving Davis alone.
He thought of a few matters concerning senior sister Zora Luan, not to mention his friend Drake Blackburn who recently enrolled himself in the Aurora Cloud Gate. He also thought about Nightveil, or in other words, Iris Serenity, as he gave her a task to complete. He knew that they were fine but also wondered what they were up to now, not that he had the time to go check on them.
'I'd go if they were actually facing trouble, but Zora Luan is probably just scolded in her home, and Drake is flirting around like the playboy he is...'
He chuckled to himself, wondering how many women Drake had seduced by now.
Suddenly, Nadia appeared over his shoulder in her tiny wolf form and made herself comfortable, causing Davis to smile lightly as he caressed her back.
"If the spots don't count for contracted beasts and spirits, take Eldia and Lereza along with you and return to Evelynn. You must protect our household at all costs, understand?"
"Fhi~"
Nadia gave a sound of agreement before she turned and licked his face, rubbing her cuteness all over him.
Before long, Bylai and Tina also arrived, causing them to leave.
They didn't wait for Lea, Sophie, and Dalila because the latter two would have to undergo some tests to be selected for the secret realm before they would be transported in the Aurora Cloud Gate's battleship itself.
After boarding a flying boat, he rushed to the Starlight Jade Wolf Clan.
It was an Immortal Emperor Grade Flying Boat taken from Isabella's Earth Dragon Clan Inheritance. It didn't have any attacking prowess, but its defense and concealment were high, comparable to a Mid Immortal Emperor Grade Flying Boat.
Davis and the others eventually reached the Starlight Jade Wolf Clan, whereupon they met with the Starlight Jade Wolf King.
"Brother Davis, the powers of the world are congregating towards the Zyrus Family. Let us leave to the place we met for the first time."
Patriarch Fenren Jadelight seemed to be in a good mood as he invited Davis over and boarded the Starlight Jade Wolf Clan's battleship together.
Bylai had already made herself known somewhat as the Golden Dragon Clan was also on his tail a few times. Regardless, he introduced the two of them to his sworn brother.
"This is Tina Roxley, my ninth wife, and this is my seventeenth wife, Bylai Zlatan."
"Remarkable." Patriarch Fenren Jadelight's eyes flashed, "They're Immortal Kings at such an age. Particularly, this young lady without a bloodline is even more remarkable."
"Thanks to our husband~"
Tina politely responded, causing the Starlight Jade Wolf King to smile.
"Well, he's an emperor among emperors with his powers, so I suggest you would do well to retain his favor."
"Indeed." Tina's smile grew, "I'm trying my best, but he rarely visits me."
"Oh? Is that true?"
Patriarch Fenren Jadelight turned to look at Davis, causing him to be embarrassed, but he stretched out his hand and wrapped his arm around Tina's waist.
"Then I'll keep you by my side as it is a must for me to spend as much time possible with you, no?"
"…"
Tina's cheeks grew hotter by the second as she couldn't believe she was being held intimately like this in front of another man. If it hadn't been for her job as a receptionist, where she had to deal with a lot of people, including shady ones who would try to hit on her, she felt like she might've fainted from the embarrassment.
However, feeling a gentle kiss fall on her forehead, she couldn't help but become comfortable.
"Yes, keep me by your side; always~"
She relaxed in Davis's embrace, feeling such security that her heart ached with happiness.
Isn't this what she was waiting for? A chance to be with him amidst all the responsibilities they all had?
Bylai giggled by their side. She didn't get one bit jealous as she knew how Tina worked hard that more than half of their cultivation speed could be said that it was a result of her hard work, although she shared a quarter of that effort with Dalila.
Regardless, her gratitude knew no bounds as having an alchemist or not could be the difference between heaven and earth in the cultivation world for growth.
Soon enough, they reached the location where the Central Primesky Alliance's first summit took place.
It was the Zyrus Family's home.
They were back here again, but the moment they alighted, they were able to tell that the atmosphere and the festivities were vastly different from the last time. The market hub was bustling with stalls set up all the way from the docking platform to the center of the city, causing Davis to gawk.
However, the moment the onlookers and the stall owners all saw him, their mouths parted as much as him before they hurriedly looked away to not match gazes with him.
"…"
Davis wasn't surprised or offended by this reaction.
However, Bylai and Tina were shaken to see their man command such fear in the crowd. They blinked, recalling how he played with his children and chased them around like a silk pants young master, but here, just his very appearance struck fear in the hearts of the others.
Somehow, they couldn't help but feel their heart stir with pride.
"Haha~"
The Starlight Jade Wolf King nodded over their reaction as though he was also prideful before floating towards the destination with gait. The others also followed him until they were walking over the tall and wide stairs that led to the palace that seemed to have been newly built for this occasion.
"So, you've come."
Suddenly, a tired voice echoed out.
"I'm tired of waiting for you, Emperor of Death. If you want to die peacefully, hand over the death-attributed magical beast mount you have. Otherwise…"
An insidious cackle resounded around the area as Davis raised his head, his eyes making contact with a violet-robed person standing on top of the last step with a deranged smile.
'Wicked Tamer…'
