Chapter 2247: Consideration

Davis and Evelynn had only spent a short time dual cultivating when compared to their single session lasting for over a week.

After they had come out of making love, they went to see Isabella and Shirley, who was looking after their babies with intense care while occasionally cultivating.

When Davis joked that they had become mothers who forget their husband, they instantly pointed out that he had been intimate with the first wife, so there was no need or space for them to step in, causing them to laugh.

Shortly, the atmosphere became quite romantic between them as he spent some time together with them, looking after Eterna and Celestia.

His silent embrace over the babies as they slept was just an unforgettable sight to them, making their hearts feel at ease as they had no doubt that he would be a great father.

As for the others, they were no longer visible in the hallways, practically cooping themselves up in cultivation chambers and cultivating without a stop, digesting their gains from the Essence Orbs while increasing their cultivations rapidly.

With enough resources catering to their needs, their rate of improvement remained fast and unimpeded.

If only Lereza’s intentions were clear, he could host them in the Nine-Treasured Immortal Ordeal Palace and give them time advantage, allowing them to quickly catch up to his levels. However, he felt that it was too risky to place them there despite the gains. To that end, he felt that he must enter the palace once again and hound her for answers.

Nonetheless, he told the ones present, Evelynn, Isabella, and Shirley, about the proposal the Light Sky Wolf Immortal put forward, causing their eyes to widen.

“Do you like Everlight?” Shirley’s eyes became curious.

Watching her crimson eyes shine as though she had encountered something interesting, Davis couldn’t help but smile.

“I’ll be straightforward with you three. I do like Everlight in the sense that she knows what to do to protect her power, takes better decisions than most, and tried to save me even amidst an immortal battle, which not anyone would try to do, needlessly offending immortals, I mean. However, love? I don’t have that towards her, but attraction… yes. Her eyes are beautiful, having so many emotions in them towards me…”

“Temptation…” Shirley grinned, “That’s all a man needs to court a woman and get to know her, no?”

Davis nodded but shook his head a moment later.

“Only if I don’t have a woman in the first place, but I have so many of you. I need to ask myself, do I really need her?”

“…”

Looking at him seriously consider, Evelynn, Isabella and Shirley smiled at each other.

Isabella moved her crimson lips, “Davis, you might not need her but consider our survivability in the First Haven World. It is a must we must have some backing, or we would get ripped apart without even knowing how as there are Immortal Kings and perhaps, Immortal Emperors.”

“Sigh…” Davis heaved a breath, “… you’re right.”

“Don’t take it as though I’m blaming you.” Isabella’s expression became worried as she shook her hands.

“If it were not for you, I wouldn’t have been able to flourish here, perhaps only miserably surviving even to this day. I know how important to have a backing, and that was what you created for me, an imaginary backing, but in truth, it was you who protected me. We can’t do the same in the First Haven World, as some might already know about us from the ruckus we created in the Fifty-Two Territories, so we must have some sort of protection if we’re going to venture.”

She stood up and bowed towards him to her waist’s length, “For Eterna and Celestia, and for us, please make a wise decision.”

Davis blinked, “It’s not confirmed that the Starlight Jade Wolf Clan would protect us as I figure that the Light Sky Immortal does not have that kind of authority.”

“Including that, please make a wise decision.” As she looked him in the eyes, Isabella remained bowing, “Whatever it is, I will follow your will as your Empress.”

“…” Evelynn and Shirley grinned from ear to ear as they watched Isabella.

They also stood up and bowed towards him, causing Davis to be taken aback as he felt the weight of their trust, not to mention the sudden formality that they hadn’t shown ever since the time he married them.

He nodded to their bows before lowering his head and placing his hand on his mouth, his eyes entering a contemplative state.

After some time, he clenched his teeth.

‘Damn… even if I want to accept, this puts a bitter taste in my mouth. Have I ever made romantic relationships based on gains? This isn’t how I do things, even if I want to marry someone. It just doesn’t feel right to me…’

Even after making so many improvements that would shock immortals to their core, he still had to rely on a backing?

Abruptly, his eyelids trembled as he realized something.

‘Hmm… I’ve become too arrogant with achieving some otherworldly things… I must remember what it was like to run around, stay low and face enemies to death while risking my life once again…’

He recalled his life before reaching the Supreme Soul Stage. Only by staying low and disguising as much as he could in the past did he successfully emerge. If he had revealed himself from the start, he would’ve been most likely barraged from all sides, but the fact was that he would not be able to hide in the First Haven World since many would’ve come to know about him upon return.

Perhaps, they already knew about him as some hidden Peak-Level Ninth Stage Cultivators might’ve ascended before the Calamity Light’s second activity could take place or after it. He was not sure about how the ascendance worked at this moment.

After all, immortals had arrived here, unrestricted although suppressed to Level One Immortal Foundation Stage.

Davis had no doubt that he would be forced to ascend because of his overwhelming prowess upon becoming an immortal, but what about the others? The average ones?

Would they be forced to ascend if they became immortals, or would they still be here?

There was no answer to that question.

Nonetheless, if they did indeed ascend, they could spread the word about him. After all, even if he went and restricted everyone Ninth Stage Powerhouse with a Blood Soul Contract, he couldn’t seal everyone’s mouth, could he? Especially the ones they would take together with them.

In that case, he could only follow ‘a dead man tells no tales’ motto, but that didn’t sit well with him. Besides, it was unknown if these immortals who descended could leave just like that or if more immortals could pour in.

At this moment, only twelve immortals had been confirmed, but he recently had Yotan infiltrate the Spirit’s World Barrier and learned that a spirit immortal had taken control of the Spirit Ancestral Ground, although there seemed to be no incursions at the moment. This made it a total of thirteen immortals had entered the Fifty-Two Territories, although some had already died at his hands.

Considering all the possible scenarios he could imagine, Davis heaved a breath and stood up.

“There’s still time until I could give my answer. You’re all fine with it, right?”

“Would we talk about it if we’re not fine with it?” Shirley raised her brows, causing Davis to chuckle.

“If anyone is opposed to it, tell them to come to meet me before I make my decision.”

“That’ll be difficult.” Evelynn shook her head with a smile, “I don’t know if they would come out within seven days.”

“Well, if they did, then inform and ask them. I’m sure they would come to see Eterna and Celestia upon their exit.”

“Indeed~” The three of them grinned before Shirley’s eyes glimmered, “Aren’t you lusting after magical beasts now?”

“Hahaha.” Davis laughed as he walked out, “Mira and Freya, a dragon and a phoenix, are no longer safe in my presence. You two would do well to protect them.”

“…!”

Both Isabella and Shirley felt a tremor in their souls, causing them to laugh while Mira and Freya blushed hard. However, their trembling undulations were at the Peak-Level Emperor Beast Stage, and their bodies had completely matured.

Mira and Freya have grown from their teenage appearances to full-grown buxom temptresses, and it was unknown how many times they had seen their mistresses being embraced by Davis that it could be said that they knew what he meant.
