Princess Isabella possessed a somber expression on her face while both Evelynn and Natalya's eyes became moist. They also gathered around Claire as they tried to comfort her. 

Davis inwardly sighed. It truly is the case of: 'That you won't realize what you have until you don't have it anymore in your grasp.'

After some time passed, he finally asked, "Does mother want to go back? No matter what decision you make, I'll follow it."

Even though he had already announced that the Conferred Queen would visit the Alstreim Family in a month, he can always choose to go back on his word, or he could also just bring Princess Isabella alone and visit the Alstreim Family for a week before leaving. 

In any case, it wasn't difficult for him to adjust his plans. After all, the whole point of going to the Alstreim Family was to obtain justice for his mother, and perhaps his mother's father.

Claire, who had already regained her bearings, shook her head, "We've come all this way, and my revenge is just a step away. Besides, I still want to see my father and even bring him back to meet him to see my children. I have no intention to die; neither will I let you all die. The only one who has to die is me."

"Claire..." Logan murmured.

"If push comes to shove, Davis, you can call your master. Even if I have to give up my life in turn as a sacrifice, I am willing." Claire's expression became a bit complex.

Davis turned hesitant, wanting to say something, but he just nodded his head.

"After I get my revenge, I'm leaving for my children's place as soon as I can. You can all do whatever you want, including you, husband, but I'm returning." She possessed a determined expression on her face.

Logan became surprised and didn't know what to say at that moment. The times she called him husband were serious moments. He thought that he could adventure the world with her after successfully getting her revenge as he initially planned, but he suddenly felt as if responsibilities were important as well.

On the other hand, Davis nodded his head, "Since Mother is clear on taking revenge, we'll leave within a month. Until then, consolidate all your cultivation systems and use this vial to have a breakthrough in Body Tempering Cultivation."

Davis gave two small vials of the nectar before explaining the effects and the precautions that needed to be taken. Logan and Claire became astonished at its effects, but he stopped them before they could thank him.

They then continued on with the plan.

After speaking and confirming almost every aspect that needed to be considered, building the initial plan after reaching the Alstreim Family as well as fine-tuning to the changes, he and his parents went to see Granduncle Daniuis while his three women went back to their places.

They sat and conversed with Granduncle Daniuis for more than an hour, convincing him to participate in their plan. 

Granduncle Daniuis, who was waiting for a chance to get justice from the Alstreim Family, which he had given up long ago, but wanted to take revenge on the Tripartite Alliance, accepted their plan. He had already entered the Law Sea Stage, so he no longer possessed misgivings about jumping into the tiger's maw.

It was just that Granduncle Daniuis asked Davis to take care of his family if something were to happen to him.

Davis's eyes vaguely flashed red as he saw that Granduncle Daniuis's lifespan was still long. He had checked every other person with him as well and could see that their lifespans were still long. Unless something changed due to his presence or actions, it was unlikely that they would die. Just when he thought of saying that nothing would happen, he digressed.

He felt that he might raise a death flag if he said that, hence, he decided to assure Granduncle Daniuis.

"It isn't a problem. We would take all of them back to the Forsaken Phoenix Realm if everything were to fail and become compromised. There, Fifth Stage Cultivators are considered powerhouses, and Sixth Stage Cultivators are almost non-existent, so I think Grand Uncle doesn't need to worry."

"Your words put me at ease..." Granduncle Daniuis let out a relaxed smile, but his expression suddenly contained few ounces of hesitation.

"What is it, Granduncle Daniuis? If it is something I can do, I can assure you that I won't hesitate to do it." Davis prompted.

Beside him, his mother imperceptibly nodded her head thinking, 'Oh how reliable has my son grown...'

Granduncle Daniuis hesitated for a few more seconds before he sighed, "It's about Lucia..." 

Davis acknowledged, "So it's about her..."

Granduncle Daniuis nodded, "That lass has been spending her time, mostly secluding herself in cultivation and has refused to heed our words. I'm afraid that she will wear herself out and damage her health. Worse, if she made mistakes in cultivation, it might even crack her foundations or even endanger her life."

Granduncle Daniuis shook his head.

"You know how she is... Cheerful and mischievous, but now, all I can see is her desolate back. I can't bear her to see like this. It's painful... She needs someone to rely on..." 

Granduncle Daniuis looked incredibly hesitant but still said, "That's why, can you marry her and make her happy?"

Davis widened his eyes as he became stunned. Logan and Claire too possessed stunned expressions on their faces, but they didn't open their mouths to say anything.

Davis didn't think he would actually be asked this... Was this because he possessed an amicable relationship with Lucia?

He could understand that since a normal cultivator's genes possessed no weak or problematic genes, so even with incest, it was difficult and almost impossible to birth a disabled or a defective child. The only thing blocking cultivators from having incest is their morals and their typical sense of disgust to act on such thoughts.

Lucia was his first cousin once removed. Nevertheless, it seems that in the cultivation world, marrying a person who is a first cousin once removed is not considered incest and not at all farfetched. 

Only sexually intimate relationships with parents, siblings, half-siblings, uncle and aunt, and their children could be considered incest in this cultivation world. At least, it seemed to be the case in the Loret Family and the Alstreim Family.

Looking at them become silent all of a sudden, Granduncle Daniuis shook his hands, "Ah, it isn't as if I'm asking you to marry her all of a sudden. It can be after-"

Davis raised his hand, stopping Granduncle Daniuis's speech, "I understand what you're trying to say, Granduncle Daniuis, but as long as Lucia's heart belongs to someone else, then no one can touch her. At least, not under my watch."

Granduncle Daniuis looked taken aback as Davis shook his head.

It was one thing if Davis and Lucia had developed their feelings for each other from the moment they met, but it was not like that. One reason was that Lucia was still a child in his eyes, and another reason was Lucia's heart belonged to Glyn in his mind.

There was no way he would marry her, especially when he was planning to do something foolish, not knowing whether if it would even successfully transpire or not.
