Davis inclined his face and closed in on her lips, their lips almost touching. However, he could not feel her heated breath.
Feeling that she was holding her breath, Davis was about to relieve her off suspense and grant her the thrill and excitent of kissing when suddenly they both turned startled.
Davis and Princess Isabella looked in the direction of the entrance of the residence at the sa ti, feeling the undulations of a familiar yet powerful person!
Princess Isabella blinked thinking that he has to go right now but she abruptly widened her eyes, feeling the soft and passionate feeling on her lips.
She was caught off-guard!
Davis softly caressed her lips with his as he held her cheeks.
While her lips were being subjected to extensive care, they both looked at their eyes in a trance, especially Princess Isabella as she beca stiff like a statue. She didn’t know what to do but when she felt his two hands cup her face again, she responded to his lips passionately as she leaned towards him, her hands on his shoulders.
With just their lips caressing and tasting each other’s flavor, Princess Isabella felt extrely strange as blood rushed to her head, making her cheeks blush with a crimson hue.
Suddenly, she felt her mouth be pried open by his tongue but at the sa ti, she beca aware of the surreal situation.
She abruptly pushed him away and gasped for breath before saying, "... T-There’s an uninvited guest outside..."
"..."
Davis blinked as he realized how easily he was pushed away by her... He couldn’t even resist her strength. It was so forceful that he only realized after being separated from her luscious red lips.
Noticing that he had gone blank, Princess Isabella panicked. This was precisely why she was scared, that she would push him away in fear. But contrary to her fears, she really did what she feared but it was for another reason since an uninvited guest was waiting before the residence.
"I... I’m sorry... I didn’t an to..." She shook her head in disbelief at her own actions.
Davis looked at her expression that truly beca a sight to behold.
Her pure black eyes beca moist while her and her slightly quivering luscious crimson lips indicated that she beca remorseful of her actions.
He beca fairly taken aback by her look as he couldn’t help but chuckle.
"I know... My soul body is out there already, responding to the uninvited guest..."
Princess Isabella montarily beca blank as she realized that she had forgotten his powerful soul body in the heat of the mont. She couldn’t help but simultaneously feel that she had done an enormous wrong by pushing him away.
"... I really didn’t an to..."
Her expression trembled as she tried to explain but a finger fell on her lips, sealing her speech.
"Isabella, you’re a Martial Master while I’m just a Martial Ascendance Cultivator. There’s an entire stage that separates us..."
"If you really wanted to push
away, I know that my bones would have broken instead..."
Davis chuckled and extended his hand as he caressed her cheek, "You don’t need to explain yourself as I know that you’re worried about our safety."
He smiled and moved forwards amidst her stunned gaze. Then like he did in the past, he planted his lips on her forehead, "I’ll be back soon..."
He took a step back and was about to leave but suddenly, he got caught in her grasp as she held his wrist that had just left her cheek.
"Don’t leave..." Princess Isabella whispered in a ek tone.
Davis blinked, "What about the uninvited guest?"
Princess Isabella took his hand back to her cheek, feeling his rough and caressing warmth, "Isn’t your soul body already taking care of the uninvited guest?"
Davis blinked once again before a grin appeared on his lips.
======
In the entrance of Davis’s residence, a man with suave facial features waited after knocking on the door. He didn’t bother masking his undulations as that would be rude since it would co off as hiding his identity, neither did he flare his undulations since that would also co off as rude and hostile.
Besides, he didn’t dare!
The gate in front of him opened but no one stood there but he obediently suppressed his undulations, thinking that esteed person had finally co.
The man clasped his hands and slightly bowed, "Head Envoy Havle Alstreim of the Alstreim Family greets Senior!"
"Mn... What business do you have here?" A deep voice echoed.
"Senior! You have beco our Alstreim Family’s greatest benefactor!" Havel Alstreim echoed with a joyous expression on his face.
"Thanks to your help, Senior, we were able to track dissidents from the other Empires and Organizations, and punish them while we also successfully brought down the entire Zeth Empire by covertly sending our Grand Elders and nurous experts to the scene!"
Davis beca astonished.
Only two months had passed but they have already quelled the hidden yet uprising rebellion?
’The Alstreim Family’s network is sure efficient...’ Davis narrowed his eyes as he felt the need to be cautious and not slip up.
"What about the Yantra Family?" He asked in curiosity.
Hearing this question, Havle Alstreim cheerfully laughed, "Haha, not only did we capture or kill many of them hidden in the other Empires, we have captured one of their Grand Elders in the Zeth Empire!"
A curve appeared on his lips as he smirked.
"We are now negotiating with the Yantra Family for compensation in exchange for the prisoners..."
"Oh~ That’s felicitous for the Alstreim Family. You’ve co here just to inform
of this matter?" Davis’s deep voice sounded cold.
Havle Alstreim’s expression froze before he solemnly explained.
"I dare not waste our benefactor’s ti. Instead, I’ve co to inform senior the decision of our Grand Elders to grant the Conferred Queen to have a single chance at taking one treasure from our treasury."
Davis beca inwardly flabbergasted as he heard Havle Alstreim utter words like these... To grant the Conferred Queen to have a single chance at their Treasury?
’Is it because they could not bring , the senior to their side that they’re targeting the junior, the Conferred Queen to their side?’ He inwardly mused before his laughter echoed in the area.
Havle Alstreim inwardly beca confused, wondering if he said sothing wrong. However, he knew the reason why the Grand Elders made this decision is to attract the Conferred Queen to their Alstreim Family.
If they could do that, perhaps, they would have a chance at having a backer in dium-sized territories.
His confusion was along the lines that he felt that there was no need to laugh at this decision.
’Could it be that a single treasure is not enough?’ He beca confused and vexed.
"By aning a single chance, are the Emperor Grade Treasures also included?"
Havle Alstreim finally understood as he beca embarrassed, "Of course, as long as it doesn’t exceed the Low-Level Emperor Grade..."
"And we also know that the Conferred Queen can’t be disturbed when she is in seclusion..."
"But since senior is our benefactor who let us know about this insidious and concealed rebellion, I will personally ensure that the treasure is delivered to the Conferred Queen’s doorstep!"
’Oh? They’re bent on giving the treasure and don’t need the Conferred Queen to visit the Alstreim Family for the ti being?’
’So they’re fine with her walking off with their treasure but still want to leave a good impression on her to get the power behind her to take interest in them?’
Davis inwardly laughed before his deep voice echoed, "Since the treasure is given to my Young Mistress, then I can’t reject this myself."
"Wait for my Young Mistress’s reply."
Havle Alstreim beca increasingly ecstatic as he heard these words. This was why they didn’t give the treasure to the senior as they knew that he would reject it! However, if the treasure were given to the Conferred Queen instead, then the senior will have to ask for the Conferred Queen’s permission to reject.
In reality, Davis did indeed ask Princess Isabella. He was currently the Solitary Soul Avatar, so he had to contact the main body and interrupt the intimate exchange he had with Princess Isabella to ask.
However, he explained to her what had happened and additionally asked.
"Can I take the treasure for myself?"
Princess Isabella who looked taken aback because of the sudden interruption from their intimate exchange shot a disapproving gaze at him.
