Chapter 1429 - I'm Coming With You All
"Oh...? No wonder you were so arrogant all this ti... It is indeed acceptable..."
Ezekiel Alstreim’s eyes flashed with curiosity.
"I want to know how I would be able to fare against a Soul King. I’ve also never fought one before, so care to entertain
sowhere else?"
Davis couldn’t help but chuckle as he was about to reply, but...
"I advise you all from wanting to challenge him to know his true prowess." Ancestor Dian Alstreim’s voice resounded out, causing everyone to look at him.
"He sneakily attacked
and was able to seal my cultivation for a few seconds with a mysterious spirit formation, and that was more than enough ti for a Soul King to kill you if you’re unlucky without any soul defenses put in place."
He shook his head, looking rueful. He wanted them not to began a fight in the na of exchanging friendly blows just when the situation had beco amicable.
Ezekiel Alstreim blinked while all the others looked shocked. Especially Claire, who couldn’t help but worry why under the heavens her son would do that. She was proud, but what if Ancestor had taken it in the wrong way?
"Why did you do that for?" She pouted.
"Just cause..."
Davis winked as he really didn’t have a valid reason. He just wanted to see what it would be like when he fought against a Law Rune Stage Powerhouse, just like how Ezekiel Alstreim wanted to see how he would fare against him.
Claire couldn’t resist hitting him by the side.
The Solitary Soul Avatar got the hit while the real Davis grinned from Niera’s side.
Looking at Logan, who smilingly shook his head, he couldn’t help but say with a teasing intent.
"Father, you’re awfully silent this whole ti..."
Logan, who already possessed a smile, deeply smiled at this mont.
"Davis, what else do I have to do when I have an excellent and capable son like you? You ca from , so whatever you do, the reputation of the outco will also naturally co to ,"
Logan looked as if he had triumphed while Davis beca flabbergasted, about to complain that it was unfair when the forr continued.
"... even the bad ones. I’m just standing here, feeling glad that you haven’t strayed to the wicked path as the people call here. I’m glad that you’re just a pervert like
and not an evil man."
Davis was extrely moved but hearing his father speak, but at the end, his expression began to twitch.
"That girl... She’s Nora’s little sister...?"
"Yes..." Davis answered, shaking his head, "She-"
"Should I call her sister-in-law or daughter-in-law...?"
Logan had a confused yet teasing smile on his face while Davis’s expression instantly froze. He looked away and let out an exasperated breath.
"The latter..."
"Hahaha! Did you think I was going to call her the forr?"
Logan teased while Davis knew he had lost this one. If it were before, he would’ve teased back his father, but after having a good ti... an extrely good ti with his sister-in-law Fiora in bed, he could only have his mouth shut. He couldn’t be two-faced about this, nor did his parents know about Fiora.
If they did, Logan wouldn’t have dared to make this cliched joke as he would know that he would’ve made things awkward! After all, it was quite common that a common family would marry off sisters to a powerful man, especially if he were wealthy, authoritative, and well-protected as well.
Claire lightly hit Logan, chastising him for making the atmosphere awkward between them.
Logan chuckled, "In any case, you’re the one making the calls, Davis. I’ll just sit back and enjoy my life, perhaps adventure with my wives like I wanted to."
"It’s not like I want to make the calls all the ti." Davis shrugged, "You can make the decisions, father, but you have to be responsible for it as I am for my own."
"Nope, I almost exhausted my life being an Emperor. I am not one, nor do I want to beco one again..." Logan shook his head, "You always think the best for us while we think the sa for you. So, all your father wants to say is don’t be bent on cultivation all the ti. With the way you’re going, it is as if though you’re going to get retribution from the heavens..!"
"We heard from father-in-law that you saved Tia from a... heavenly tribulation?"
A soul transmission fell on Davis’s head.
Logan’s tone was inquisitive and proud, while his eyes were deep with worry. Even Claire looked the sa, looking as if she was reproaching him for doing sothing dangerous like facing a heavenly tribulation, especially for soone else.
Davis’s expression beca a bit proud instead.
"I saved mother’s little sister. Don’t you two feel proud of ?"
"We do... I feel like if I died at this mont, I would have no regrets for having a son like you, but do you not know that a father’s greatest fear is to see his son die before him?" Logan narrowed his eyes.
Davis blinked, feeling like his father beca a bit emotional.
Indeed, both Logan and Claire were distraught when they heard Edgar Alstreim’s account. Davis wasn’t even at the foot of the Ninth Stage, and yet he had already faced a heavenly tribulation of the legends! Fortunately, he had crossed it, but when they heard it, they thought that Edgar Alstreim ca to announce the news of Davis’s death to them. They were practically frozen stiff at that ti, almost scarred for life.
Fortunately, Edgar Alstreim quickly said that everyone was okay.
Evan had already been born at that ti, or otherwise, sothing might’ve gone wrong with Claire.
"I’m not saying that you should not face dangers, but I’m saying that you should know your limits. I always tell Claire that you know your limits, but this... The destructiveness of the heavenly tribulation is sothing unknown to us, but you dared to face it? Could it be that you were relying on your master? No, even your master wouldn’t have dared to intervene when a heavenly tribulation appears because the ironclad rule of it is if soone else interferes, the heavenly tribulation is always going to match their strength...."
Davis could feel the heaviness in his father’s words. He understood that he was not being criticized but asked why he did that.
"True, I was almost near to death, but I won in the end. As you already know, I have unearthly healing arts that don’t leave any residues in
as dicinal pills do, so I knew that if I were to survive, I would experience a massive change in my confidence with almost no consequences."
"However, such thoughts didn’t run in my head first as I just wanted to save Tia. I knew I was reckless, but I just had to do it or watch little Tia turn into ashes. I really didn’t plan on interfering with her tribulation in any way. However, at that mont..."
Davis shrugged.
"Fine, fine... A man’s got to do what a man’s got to do..."
Logan sighed, looking as if he was sowhat satisfied with that answer.
He had saved many random won in his adventures as a youth, even had consensual one-night stands with them so in a romantic manner while so of them ended up in his harem a few years ago. So he believed that it was all his fault that Davis was like this, wanting to save damsels in distresses while even risking his life.
He really couldn’t bla his own genes, could he? It was not even a random woman but a close relative, basically another sister-in-law, so he really didn’t find fault but was just worried for his son’s life.
Claire looked at Logan, not really understanding his point as her son’s life was greater than anyone else. How can he sacrifice his life for a woman who wasn’t even his wife or daughter?
Of course, she was glad that her little sister from another mother survived, but if she had to lose her son for it, never!
However, she didn’t say anything in the end because she knew that no matter how strong he was, she was always going to worry when he faced dangers.
That was the fate of a mother.
Fortunately, he possessed extraordinary offensive and defensive prowess that would ensure his survival. Claire understood that and cald her worried heart, but she still couldn’t help but leave these four words.
"Don’t do it again..."
"I’ll try..." Davis scratched his head while looking wry.
Claire furrowed her brows, "You’re like your father. So stupid..."
She pouted and looked away before she sighed, "Davis, now that everything is settled, including the main perpetrator Faragin Yantra, has been killed, I want to return ho to see my other children, your siblings whom I have abandoned taking care of all these years."
Davis blinked, feeling like he had talked about returning two or three months later, but even he was feeling an extre urge to return so that he could see Isabella, even his little sister Clara and the other two adorable kids who had probably grown up.
"Don’t be hard on yourself, mother. So things just can’t be delayed. If you had waited, there’s a chance that Faragin Yantra and his lackies might’ve uprooted the Alstreim Family or caused imnse damage, not to ntion the Aqua Flood Dragon might’ve totally destroyed the Grand Alstreim City. Besides, I wouldn’t have t Natalya again and fell in love while she fell to danger again, nor would I have t all these wonderful won whom I know I could love dearly... Your adamance and determination gave
happiness that I didn’t know that I could’ve experienced, mother..."
"Davis..." Claire’s eyes beca moist as she beca inexplicably moved.
There wasn’t a single day she had gone by without thinking at least once about her children she left back ho. It was done for them to be safe and have a protected environnt to grow, but no matter how she twisted it, she was still abandoning her duty to nurture them.
Davis’s words lted her heart that she couldn’t help but almost cry. She wiped her eyes with her sleeves and smiled.
"Can you give us that token? I think Logan and I can go back by ourselves, or you can lead us to the spatial gate with your concealnt if you want to..."
Davis shook his head as he deeply smiled.
"I’m coming with you all to the Grand Sea Continent..."
Claire’s expression froze as her smile faded.
Like these three, the others in the hall were talking amongst themselves in groups, sharing their experiences, growing together emotionally while even Davis’s main body was interacting with Niera, Nora, and their family, watching them bond, although it was a bit hilarious for him and everyone else as Nora teased how these two stinky n captured their hearts.
It garnered humorous waves of laughter while everything, including his relationship with Niera seeming to be going smooth, not disputed by anyone. At the sa ti, Nora even said it was good for her little sister because she had approved Davis’s character.
As always, it was hard to say no to be wed to a smooth, attractive, powerful man. It was rather a common sight. However, the matter of the wedding date was not discussed, perhaps because everyone felt that it was too soon even though they may have accepted.
Davis didn’t care as it coincided with his plans while he fully took advantage of his privileges to socialize for a while before he took his leave, only leaving his Solitary Soul Avatar to take care of any remaining matters.
A few minutes later, he secretly arrived at the Dark Thunder Island along with Nadia and Eldia with his blinding speed.
*Whoosh!~*
Both Nadia and Eldia shot out from his body before one of them looked deeply excited.
"We got no ti to waste! Eldia, it’s ti for you to show your prowess in devouring this heavenly lightning!~"
Eldia’s figure flashed with black-lightning while she spun around in mid-air as if she was waiting for this treat all day long!
"Yes!~~~ Master!"
