Looking at these people who were fooled, Davis possessed the urge to laugh, but he held himself back. There was also a tinge of pride that these people from a hegemonic power were all bowing in reverence to his wife-to-be. Although the background he created with his wits was fake, the fact that Princess Isabella is a future immortal existence didn't change.
He had already told Princess Isabella to leave and said that again just a while ago, but she stayed and said that she would be a good daughter-in-law to which he could instantly tell that when Claire and Princess Isabella interacted when the latter helped the former, they probably talked about the former's past.
Perhaps, Princess Isabella had already promised that she would help get revenge for her mother-in-law. Thinking like this, Davis didn't say anything or urge her to leave. Instead, he was a bit happy that Princess Isabella had chosen to stay.
Princess Isabella roamed her gaze on the group of misfits demanding the nectar from her man. She didn't stay in seclusion but watched the show from inside the estate with the Solitary Soul Avatar. Hence, she knew what and all took place.
Her expression was indifferent, but her gaze remained icy, especially when she glanced at the bald elder who dared to attack her love.
"Consider yourselves lucky that my protector is in seclusion. Otherwise, I don't how many corpses would've fallen in front of my estate..." She coldly spat out.
Hearing her speech, Elder Towerfall and Elder Enye felt a chill on their backs! It was not killing intent but a type of domineering intent and the seamless might of the Earth Dragon that curbed them from talking back.
However, they didn't know that and could only see that the Conferred Queen is someone who they could mess with easily.
Davis clasped his hand and gestured with his hand as if he were explaining what had happened to Princess Isabella with soul transmission, but in reality, he was asking her.
"... Are you sure you want to do this?"
Princess Isabella didn't hesitate, "Yes, everyone needs battle experience, especially your two wives. From what I know, Evelynn only battled with magical beasts, but Natalya doesn't have much experience. It is better if they could use this chance to grow with you, with us..."
Davis descended into silence. This was why he produced a wry smile. Princess Isabella wanted to use this opportunity to temper Evelynn and Natalya.
When Princess Isabella said that she wanted to temper them, it was as if she lamented their current strength and wanted her sisters to be equal in power as her. It was as if she really put much thought into their future.
"Davis, I know you don't want trouble, but getting involved in troubles is one of the ways cultivators will strengthen their law-hearts and further their cultivation to become real experts. Are you sure that you don't want your two flowers to bloom into experts?"
Davis's heart skipped a beat.
Although he was letting Evelynn and Natalya train, that was under his watch where they know that he would save them. Even if he didn't, there would always be a subconscious notion and unwavering trust that he would come save them.
This fact alone makes them fight while knowing that they were still in safe hands, which would easily limit their battle prowess. In a battle that concerned life and death, they would easily lose their lives when he wasn't present.
Princess Isabella's words caused him to fall into deep contemplation about his ways of doing things. He could afford to be passive because of Fallen Heaven, so he could afford to wait for certain matters to trouble him before he could make a move.
But can that be applied to his wives or others he cared about? They have to struggle, learn, and adapt to every problem and battles that come their way, but if he hindered their growth by keeping them safe within his secure net, how would they grow into experts?
Princess Isabella looked away from Davis and glanced at the two elders from the Towering Cloud Hall and Falling Snow Sect.
"Do you all think we're idiots? If you want to battle for the heavenly resource, bring out something of equal value for us to truly participate in the battles. Otherwise, if I were to ever return to my family, I would be made a laughing stock, but your powers might be razed to the ground!"
"!!!"
Elder Towerfall and Elder Enye tried to hide their expressions, but the nervousness in their eyes was visible to the people present in the airspace above the estate.
Elder Havle Alstreim coldly smiled, but he was also taken aback as he truly didn't think that the Conferred Queen could be this imposing! After all, he had only seen her silent and battling side in the past. However, hearing her threat, he once again felt how keen his ancestor was to not antagonize while also deciding not to offend the Conferred Queen!
It truly made him respect Ancestor Dian Alstreim for his foresight!
Davis suddenly widened his lips as he smiled. Not at the elders but at Princess Isabella's advice to him. It truly woke him up and made him aware that he mostly cared about keeping his wives safe and not their growth as experts.
If he didn't make them into experts in this world of cultivation, then it would be truly difficult for them to stomach the difference between him and their strengths in the future!
Although he possessed the mindset that as long as he found heavenly resources to increase their cultivation bases... if they didn't cultivate their will, conviction, and mindset, they would never be able to keep up with him but would instead fall into desperation and become gloomy.
"Alright. I'll follow your lead, Isabella."
Princess Isabella blinked once before her lips slightly curved into a smile. Initially, she was afraid that Davis would refuse, but now that she had his support, she became more confident about her plans.
"I already said what I wanted to say. Bring out something of equal value or just leave... Don't waste my time..." Princess Isabella's loose purple hair slowly waved in the air before she turned around.
"Wait!" Elder Towerfall called out.
Princess Isabella stopped before glancing at them with indifference.
Elder Enye became taken aback before an intense battle could be seen in her eyes. In the end, she moved her lips, "We agree..."
'Oh? They came prepared, alright...' Davis inadvertently smiled.
His goal was to send them away without a fight, but Princess Isabella's intention was to get them to leave whatever they hold as dear as their face. She was even ruthless than him.
Her words were more like: "Since you're here demanding our valuables, leave your valuables behind instead..."
Isabella was unmistakably an Empress. On the other hand, he carefully treads each step in his life, trying not to be conspicuous as possible.
'Perhaps, Isabella looks down on my methods?' Davis inwardly chuckled.
He himself was aware that if he started a fight with these retarded people, there would be a massacre. He wasn't willing to go that far, so he mostly resorted to schemes that would hide his presence yet has the effect of defeating his enemies and gaining their spatial rings.
In the end, he would always rely on Fallen Heaven.
Davis's expression froze, 'Aren't I completely useless without Fallen Heaven!?'
