Nonetheless, Davis continued to press.

"Do you want mother to turn against her only friend? Kill the only person whom she thinks of her as her sister?"

Logan trembled before he looked at Claire, "I don't want Claire to suffer, but there should always be another way, right?"

Davis shook his head, "I'm not clever. I'm just sly and devious, so I don't know if there's a better way."

Logan descended into silence, seemingly contemplating on his son's words.

After a few seconds, Davis spoke again.

"Father, I know that you are loyal towards Mother but weren't you originally a frivolous womanizer? It is not easy to push away that trait, so grab on to the opportunity Mother has given you. Nora Alstreim is a beauty who should have countless suitors, and yet, she had once confessed to you of her own will, so it's mostly a done deal."

"Father probably won't regret it."

Logan stared at Davis before he couldn't help but sigh.

"Davis, you know how to convince people. Were you scheming for a living in your previous life as a mortal orphan?" he wryly spoke, not really expecting an answer as he just said what he thought.

"Hehe..." Davis chuckled, "You could say that..."

"Anyways, I've said what I needed to say... It's up to you two to work this out. Afterward, if Nora Alstreim sneakily does something harmful to us, I'm definitely beating you two up. After all, I still haven't gotten my revenge yet."

Davis slyly laughed.

Logan and Claire chuckled together before they looked at each other, recalling the time when they ambushed the small yet impertinent Davis who embarrassed them in front of their cute little Clara.

So many years passed, making them feel abruptly nostalgic.

However, they echoed at the same time, "You can leave it to us then..."

"It's good that you are two in sync, and I hope it remains the same way..." Davis advised.

After all, what they're bringing into this play were emotions.

Claire nodded with a smile, "Don't worry, we already know what to do..."

'Well, looks like father already knows the specifics...'

Davis nodded, "Alright."

Claire suddenly looked at Logan, "Husband, you will become the Young Master of the Alstreim Family. Father has already agreed, ready to give up his position to either one of you."

"Me!?" Logan became dumbfounded, "Isn't it better if our son becomes the Young Master?"

Claire possessed a wry expression, "You know how he is... He doesn't even want to become your empire's Emperor."

Logan reciprocated with an identical wry smile, "You're right..."

Davis merely shook his head. He preferred his freedom.

Logan still possessed some doubts, "Will the others accept? I mean, I don't even have the blood of the Alstreim Family within me, not to mention that I cannot be known as your husband to the public."

"Hehe..." Claire laughed, "That's where Nora comes in... As long as you obtain her, even Ancestor Dian Alstreim would nod to it as he had said so to me in the past."

"As for the Grand Elders and Elders who are in the know, every one of them could possibly be after your legacy, even hatching a plan to introduce you to their line's woman. After all, you were none other than the other half responsible for Davis's birth."

Logan felt a chill on his back as he heard Claire's teasing voice. He didn't want to become a stud! He already had enough women and children!

"Logan, I want your blood to lead the Alstreim Family's blood in the future."

Logan and Davis's eyes went wide in shock at Claire's outrageous statement.

Claire looked towards the ceiling as if possessing a far sight, "Since our son declined, it would be perhaps your and Nora's children leading the Alstreim Family in the future."

Logan opened and closed his mouth, wanting to say something but nothing came out of it. He could only dumbfoundedly look at Claire, feeling complex as well as inspired. This would mean he would be staining a High-Level Emperor Grade's power in his blood, and somehow, it ended up exciting him, not making him feel aversed to Claire's idea at all!

"Davis still didn't change his name in his heart, and neither have I ever since I married you. That would mean Davis still has the Loret Family in his mind as his place."

"Isn't that good, husband?" Claire smiled, "This way, you can still answer to your ancestors in death that you haven't let down the Loret Family."

"That's also why... you cannot fail to completely obtain Nora's heart, husband."

While Logan was utterly flabbergasted, Davis possessed a shocked expression on his face.

While he had just said to finish Nora Alstreim's matter, Claire had planned Nora Alstreim's entire future like a good sister. Not to mention that she gave her husband to rake in different yet powerful status and achievements!

Was this a sacrifice or gain to his mother? He couldn't tell at all!

A few seconds of silence filled the hall room before Davis opened his mouth.

"That's right. I almost forgot what I came here for... I'm temporarily leaving alone to train... Oh... not alone, but with Nadia."

Logan and Claire became taken aback before they smiled.

Logan couldn't help but place his hand on Davis's shoulders, "That's right, Davis. I know you don't want to lose to Princess Isabella, so cultivate hard. Your father and mother support you."

Davis's brows twitched as he looked at his mother's smile widen. Although they misunderstood his reason to train this soon, he still didn't want to lose to Princess Isabella, so he didn't correct them.

"I'll be using my avatar for another matter, so it wouldn't be staying here," he added.

Surprisingly, they didn't say anything and nodded their heads again.

Davis became taken aback, "Is that okay? My avatar wouldn't be able to protect you all as it wouldn't be here, so I could only leave a weak soul body here to look after matters, so-"

"I know, Davis." Claire suddenly interrupted and genuinely spoke, "You are your own person. I have burdened you, riding on your coattails for far too long before finally obtaining revenge. Mother still has the dream of reaching the Ninth Stage but won't burden you anymore."

"It's time you looked more after yourself..."

"Mother..." Davis felt moved, "I don't think that's a bur-"

"Because the burden would fall on your father as it should be~" Claire smiled as she reached out her hand and held Logan's shoulders.

Logan chuckled, "Davis, you don't need to worry about us. Even though we would be slow, we will still reach your cultivation base one day..."

"Well, that's..." Davis grinned, "Interesting..."

"Hoho~" Logan had his mouth agape, "You're completely looking down on us, aren't you, brat!?"

"Yes, I do..." Davis frankly answered, "That's why... just shut up and obediently take whatever I give you two in the future..."

Logan had his mouth go agape before he laughed, "Hahaha! You are completely arrogant, just like your mother when I met her for the first time as an enemy!"

Claire blushed red as she recalled some matters of the past.

"Nevertheless!" Logan smirked, "I'll also cultivate hard as to provide you in the future, my son."

'That's virtually impossible, but a good motivation to cultivate harder nonetheless...' Davis just smiled.

"Are you leaving... now?" Claire still smiled, but worry could be seen in her eyes.

"Uh... not now. Before I go, it's time I visited the Verdant Alstreim Treasure House."

"That's right! Father said that the Spirit Attribute Sources Hall is open to us alone. You should go take a look!" Claire seemed a bit excited.

Davis knew that Claire had gone to take a look and ended up returning with a Fire Essence. Logan seemed to have gone together as well, and he seemed to have taken a Light Elemental. As for a Lightning Elemental, it seemed he had no need for it since the Purple Yang Star Lightning was more powerful than the ones present.

However, Logan's Light Element's Will probably haven't been exterminated. However, considering that his father didn't ask him to eradicate it, he felt that it must be at Mid-Level Sky Grade at best. His father's soul cultivation was at Low-Level Elder Soul Stage, so he should be able to scrape the Will better than the others before finally exterminating it in a few weeks or months.

'It's a form of training as well...' Davis didn't offer his help.

"Mother and father got anything else to say? After I leave, unless there's an emergency, I won't return for months, or perhaps a few years..." Davis warned.

"Really, there's nothing..." Claire's expression became soft, "I only hope that you protect yourself."

"And don't fall in love with a new woman while you're at it..." Logan added.

Davis narrowed his eyes, "Says the one who is going to have his eighth woman..."

Logan smiled lewdly. It wasn't his eighth as he had slept with many women in the past. A fist suddenly appeared in front of his chest, sending him flying along with the chair.

"Claire! What are you doing?" Logan stood up, spit flying from his mouth.

Claire flicked her blonde hair, snorting, "Hmph! Don't think I don't know what you were thinking, you scoundrel."

Logan's expression trembled before he stared at Davis, his fists clenched, "It's all because of you, receive my fist!

Davis chuckled as he stood up, cracking his knuckles, "Let's see how father bears against a Martial Master Stage Cultivator."

"Hey... wait...!" Logan pointed his finger at them, "You two are bullying me!"

"Haha! Too late! Challenge accepted!"

*Whoosh!~*

Davis just flashed when he suddenly stopped, his expression appearing shocked as he looked at his father!

"..."

"..."

"..."

Dozens of seconds later, Davis finished bidding farewell and left, leaving a person who laid down on the ground, seemingly acting dead for the whole time until Davis left under Claire's embarrassed expression.
