That evening, David asked Lune to rest first,
and then he indulged in the company of these noble young ladies, gaining several new bloodlines.
The Life Seed, after absorbing these new bloodlines, experienced some enhancement, gradually approaching Tier Seven.
...
Night fell.
In the mountains outside Eagle City.
David met with the hidden vampires here.
Initially, the Duke of Vampires' task was to return and locate those hidden vampires.
However, these vampires had already left Eagle City in advance, and their whereabouts were unknown.
According to the Duke of Vampires' judgment, these vampires should have already entered the mountains.
The Blood Queen slumbers there, and perhaps this Blood Queen, just a step away from Legend, is about to awaken.
"Blood Queen."
David's expression became slightly solemn.
Even now, he was not confident he could defeat this Blood Queen.
Of course, if he utilized all his resources, he was still confident he could confront the Blood Queen.
Unfortunately, in the mountains, the vampire found no traces of any vampires.
David then instructed the Duke of Vampires to continue hiding in this mountain range.
Next, Lune would remain in Lion City to manage the city, with the Duke of Vampires able to protect Lune secretly.
Meanwhile, they also needed to monitor the Blood Queen's movements.
Matters in the Eastern Territory were almost resolved, and his forces were boosted again, allowing him to better gather resources.
Now, he needed to return to Frost Wolf Ridge to continue enhancing his power.
Returning to the castle at night, David engaged in cultivation with Lune again.
Confirming Lune's desire to remain in Lion City, he took the Stone Lions, Silver Dragon Sword, Frost Wolf Knight Order, and Silver Dragon Knight Order back to Frost Wolf Ridge.
This was David's first time separating from his wife, and although he hadn't spent much time with Lune, her gentle and lovely presence was dearly missed.
He also respected Lune's choice, as he couldn't always protect her; sometimes one must learn to let go.
If he wanted to visit Lune for dual cultivation in the future, it might require more effort.
"Looks like I'll have to continue researching array inheritances upon returning."
"There is a teleportation array among them, which can connect two places."
David mused to himself.
But constructing such spatial ability arrays was extremely difficult.
The journey was smooth.
After two days, David returned to the Northern Lands with the Knight Order.
He first positioned the Silver Dragon Knight Order at the Northern Fortress.
While the Silver Dragon Knight Order had pledged allegiance to him, they certainly wouldn't want to face the Silver Moon Royal Family in direct battle; defending Jingge Kingdom was more suitable.
Moreover, the forces within the Northern Fortress and the Silver Dragon Knight Order could mutually check each other, and with the Oath of Loyalty in place, he could be at ease.
Then, some forces from the Northern Fortress could be moved to the frontline, where he could grant them land to confront the Duke of the Western Border.
After settling everything, David returned to Frost Wolf Ridge, finally seeing his nine long-awaited wives.
Absence makes the heart grow fonder; upon returning to the castle, David immediately took the nine wives for cultivation, and the Silver Dragon Princess, with slight reluctance, entered the room as well.
This was the Silver Dragon Princess's first time serving Lord Duke alongside her sisters, her face flushed with embarrassment.
But out of gratitude to Lord Duke, she endured her awkward feeling and began group cultivation with him and her sisters.
After a session of cultivation, David felt his wives' improvements, with Liya reaching Tier Four Peak Level.
Meanwhile, Hill, after absorbing those Earth Gemstones, successfully broke through to Tier Four, doubling his cultivation results.
Thus, his high-level Earth Element Talent could soon break through to Extraordinary Level and condense the Heart of Earth Element.
The Silver Dragon Princess's strength was weaker, yet she reached Tier Three Peak.
Clearly, he needs to think of ways to help his wives further enhance their strength, so they could help him elevate the intensity of his bloodline and talents more rapidly!
...
The next day.
David convened a meeting with the witches.
Primarily to understand events happening in Wizard Castle recently.
"You mentioned there's Magic Ore in Ghost Wolf Forest?"
David's eyes suddenly brightened.
Magic Ore is a valuable resource, akin to Ice Gemstone and Earth Gemstone, all forms of Magic Ore, but these Elemental Gemstone Mines are exceedingly rare.
Even the lower-tier Magic Ore, if developed, would greatly benefit not only the cultivation of wizards but also the arrangement of arrays, among other uses.
"Indeed."
"A new area in Ghost Wolf Forest has recently emerged."
"We discovered Magic Ore in that region."
"But with my current power, it's challenging to excavate."
Hill spoke.
Ghost Wolf Forest is enveloped in magic power year-round.
Under the continual accumulation of magic power, not only do magic plants thrive, but the ground itself has become extremely hardened due to the magic power concentration.
David immediately took the witches to investigate, but even with his Tier Six Spiritual Power employing Fossil to Mud, the excavation was somewhat slow.
During the excavation, his Extraordinary Perception sensed a hint of danger, indicating something might be lurking beneath the earth.
David recalled the Demon Tree in Mist Forest, which wielded both life and death energy; anything within the Black Forest must be approached with caution.
