Davis and the others all returned to the estate. On the empty streets, they gathered around each other.
They all looked at each other before the majority of them suddenly started to laugh!
However, Evelynn was no longer able to hold back and differently reacted when she saw them laugh without any care, "You dare to laugh!? Yo... You almost died if it weren’t for Princess Isabella..."
"What do you mean... died?" Davis laughingly shook his head, "Killing a Supreme Soul Stage Cultivator isn’t that easy. I can flee faster than those Martial Sage Cultivators can chase me..."
"B-But, you would lose your physical body in a direct clash!!" Evelynn screamed as her eyes became moist. Her lips quivered, and her shoulders trembled.
Davis became stunned before the other two, Princess Isabella and Natalya also stopped laughing.
Natalya thought that she was insensible for laughing at this time. Her experience was less, and she couldn’t understand that it was almost over for Davis’s physical body at that time. Her low cultivation base didn’t even allow her to witness what had happened, but looking at Princess Isabella kick Elder Towerfall around like a ball, she felt that the entire situation was to their advantage.
However, now, she didn’t expect things were this worse!
Princess Isabella, on the other hand, had just laughed about what and all happened. Crossing life and death situations became a bit frequent, although not typical for her at this point, and this situation certainly couldn’t be said to be a life and death situation because... she had the ability to protect!
Hence, she tried to convince Evelynn in a gentle manner.
"Evelynn, Davis believed in my strength and knew how to use it. I truly wouldn’t let him come to harm-"
"But!" Evelynn yelled, "So many people died! My heart stopped at that time because I couldn’t see Davis in all that rubble and smoke. If that woman, Arianna Woller, hadn’t stopped me from leaving, I would’ve come to Davis... Her action of stopping me made me come out of my impulsiveness, and I sensed Davis with the soul mark I placed on him, knowing that he was still alive...."
"I... I..." Evelynn’s lips trembled in fear.
Davis swiftly fazed out of existence and appeared beside Evelynn as he embraced her, "Don’t worry, such a thing wouldn’t happen."
He wasn’t deeply worried about losing his physical body anymore because of the presence of life-like energy. Unlike other cultivators, he felt that he could remake his entire body if he wanted to as long as he possessed a tiny piece of flesh!
It was only a matter of time.
"Besides, why would I die when there are three beauties waiting for me?" Davis teased, trying to make her laugh.
Evelynn’s face was buried on Davis’s shoulders. She beat his chests with her fists for a few times and stopped, crying her heart out into his chest.
She wasn’t blaming him, but at that point, in the smokescreen, she almost fell into despair that Davis had died. She became truly scared and almost became insane. If Arianna Woller didn’t stop her, she would’ve come to his side to die together with him as there was a chance of being blown apart by them remnant forces. No, at that point, she didn’t care about her life anymore.
’How is she even a poisonous woman?’ Princess Isabella shook her head.
Evelynn was as fragile as a flower.
Her thoughts on Evelynn constantly changed. First, she thought that she was a freeloader and a low-key burden, then she had to admit she had the potential of a terrifying expert, but now, she could tell that she deeply cared about Davis. Maybe, Evelynn’s love for Davis was even deeper than her.
Princess Isabella sighed as she mused.
"I know..." Evelynn calmed down, she separated and looked away as she said, "My thoughts are a burden on you. As a cultivator, there’s no way you would not come across so many life and death situations. I apologize, I said too much..."
"What are you saying? If you all don’t worry for me, who will?" Davis sighed.
Evelynn’s lips trembled before she threw herself to Davis again. Even after facing all this, he still had the mindset to care about her cultivation. Perhaps, Davis didn’t know how much that moved her.
Davis just patted her back and caressed, cuddling and consoling Evelynn. Natalya silently shed tears, and Princess Isabella turned away. Perhaps, they were moved by his statement, but activating his Heart Intent at this time, he inwardly sighed.
Truly, they were a handful bunch, but they were the bunch he loved and would give them his life for!
After some time, all four of them gathered in Logan’s residence.
After Davis broke the news, he became silent and mused about what Nadia told him earlier.
"I see, so we’re heading there this soon..." Claire said, but her expression said otherwise, and her eyes flashed with a shimmering flame. Her elegance was still there, but now, she looked more of the fiery type as her blonde hair flailed around with intensity.
She came back to herself and slightly bowed, "I apologize. I got ahead of myself..."
In front of her were her prided son and three daughters-in-law, and beside herself was Logan, who possessed a solemn air to his presence. It was as if he was another person, but a closer look ordained that the air around him just acted strangely.
"So if we’re going to the Alstreim Family, what would become of this estate?" Logan asked.
"It’ll stay, and the people here would move to another estate. I’ll ask Alexi Ethren a favor, and have these people secretly move to another estate somewhere in the second level rather than moving them to the third level. This way, it would not be conspicuous and Natalya’s grandfather, Agis Stirlander is a trusted subordinate of Alexi Ethren, so I’m sure that Emperor Alexi Ethren would take care of them nicely." Davis replied.
By the side, Natalya sighed. Her family was here as well, so she was worried about them. Hearing her husband’s thoughts on this matter, she became assured.
Logan raised his thumb, "Brilliant!"
"With this, we can move out without worrying much. However, what about Claire’s uncle, Daniuis Alstreim?" He asked.
"I’m going to have Granduncle Daniuis sit on this one-"
"No!" Claire interrupted, "I think my uncle should come with us. Not uncle’s family, but uncle alone..."
"In that case, wouldn’t this place be suspected that Granduncle Daniuis’s family was here, making the Alstreim Family’s trash search this place, and perhaps the whole city?" questioned Davis.
Claire seemed unfazed, as if she already considered it, "It isn’t as if uncle’s going to literally come with us. We’ll have uncle crash the Alstreim Family and demand justice for the things the Tripartite Alliance did to him. With his Law Sea Stage Cultivation, other than the elders, no one can stop him. As the Conferred Queen’s party, we’ll take the role of justice and empower him from the background."
Davis’s mouth went agape as he almost cursed, "That’s a truly brilliant plan!"
With this plan, this will also give them a reason to make trouble in the Alstreim Family. After all, they were going in as the esteemed Conferred Queen’s entourage, so it would be unsuitable for them to make problems just by revealing Claire or Daniuis. It had to be done cautiously and carefully.
Daniuis Alstreim would storm in alone, and that would make the Alstreim Family unable to find his whereabouts. This plan was completely suitable.
Davis had to admit. If Claire doesn’t let her emotions control her, she truly will become a force to reckon with, and when combined with her smarts, she would truly be a scary woman.
