Chapter Chapter 2130:
Davis raised his hand and patted Tia, congratulating her for improving on her cultivation.
"Of course, with the hefty amount of resources given to me, it's inevitable that I break through to the Law Manifestation Stage. Just wait for me a bit more, and I'll divine all dangers that haunt us in the future."
Tia clamored with a blush on her face, causing Davis to nod his head, although he didn't convey that she should not divine those dangers at the moment because he didn't want to demotivate her.
'Well, with her Karmic Guardian Physique that automatically protects her, she should innately know that it's not safe to divine about Divergents...'
Basically, he felt that her greatest strength was useless when it came to him and his family. However, it should be useful to divine the ongoing events of the world and even its results if possible.
Then, he unceremoniously moved away from her and began to talk with others, occasionally cracking some jokes that made the others laugh. When everyone thought he would choose someone after some time, he didn't. Instead, Davis sat down on the big round table in the hall, and they naturally gathered around him, causing him to go through their cultivations one by one, offering some advice.
It became a lesson on cultivation, causing some to secretly spill blood from cultivation deviation.
This wasn't the Davis they knew. Where are those perverted evil hands rampantly outlining their curves?
However, the more they listened to him, the more they became entranced in cultivation. They could really tell he had been working hard, learning things that he didn't need to, like knowing the advantages and disadvantages of cultivation Laws other than his in the Eighth Stage and the Ninth Stage, and only then did they realize that he was sincerely teaching them.
When Davis advised Shirley and Lea, even they felt that their comprehension of Fire Laws paled in comparison. However, Davis didn't explicitly say that he reached Level Seven Abstruse Intent in Fire Laws. If they understood, it was fine, but if they didn't, then there was no need to inflict them with karmic burden, no matter how tiny it may be.
Like this, he continued expounding the essence of cultivation for a few hours, and sometimes, he also derived insights from the way the others used their circulation method and techniques.
Their reunion became beneficial to all, increasing their knowledge and getting to know each other's strengths and weaknesses. Suddenly, they realized that they became closer to each other than before, occasionally smiling like fools when they looked at each other's faces.
They possessed an expression that said that they didn't actually realize that they enjoyed this session a lot until looking at each other's smiles.
However, as the sun was setting and the moon rose up, they thought it was time he actually chose someone. But, he stood up and smiled contently.
"Wonderful. We should have this kind of exchange once in a while. I would like to spend more time with you all, but I have some little work left to do. I'll be back soon."
Davis nodded to them before he left the main hall, causing Evelynn and the others to incline their heads.
His actions even caused Claire to blink.
Was this person still her son?
"What's this? I feel scared. Davis wouldn't usually act this way. I prefer him pouncing at me!"
Natalya placed both palms on her cheeks, making a horrified expression on her face. It made the others wryly smile as they felt the same before Fiora opened her mouth.
"Maybe it's because we're all gathered here. Husband is thoughtful to us, not wanting to harm our delicate feelings by favoring one among us."
"I don't mind it, is what I would say, but this is alright as well." Mingzhi grinned, her eyes flashing with a mischievous glint.
The gaze of Evelynn and the others flashed as they realized Mingzhi's meaning.
"Well, we have our promise to marry, so I wouldn't initiate anything like you all."
"Same here"
Sophie and Niera giggled, causing the others who had already slept with Davis to blush heavily. Only Isabella and Claire possessed a proud expression on their faces, seemingly appreciative of the harem Davis made, while Shirley remained shy to be open about these matters.
========
"So Ellia isn't here..."
Davis looked around the Golden Palace with his senses. She was not in the spiritual garden nor in any of the rooms either, as not a trace of her energy was found in front of the door. However, he didn't go outside in search of her but arrived in front of his Legion Commander and Vice Commander, who stopped their cultivations and stood before they bowed all the way to their waist.
"Welcome back, Legion Master."
Davis nodded at Yotan and Threelotus.
Contrary to Mingzhi's sigh of his Solitary Soul Avatar being cooped up here, he didn't spend much time here but somewhere else. On the other hand, he also didn't reveal his strange aura as he concealed them using his concealing technique. After all, he was only willing to reveal that to his loved ones, so they don't confuse him with someone else like Mingzhi did.
"What happened this month?" He asked.
"Reporting to Legion Master." Yotan quickly began speaking up, "Last week, Nyoran was crowned as the Empress of the Dark Moon Crow Empire, also becoming the new Empress of the recently conquered Twilight Shade Valley. Our Legion Captain Starlily also returned with the Third Division and is on standby in the Soul Palace for further orders."
"Legion Captain Praezen and his First Division also successfully cleared the vermin of the wicked path from our Territories, including bandits and assassins. They've also captured the Coiling Dragon Den's Obsidian Killer Dragon and Alabaster Killer Dragon and are awaiting your command."
'Haha... haven't heard of them since the trouble with the Yantras ended...'
Davis couldn't help but inwardly chuckle, recalling that they once targeted him, but Yotan continued to report.
"As for Captain Lightsky and his Second Division, they successfully repelled the beast tide along with the Magical Beast Sanctuary's new leader, the King-Tier Undaunted Earthen Cow Guardian, although the Grand Viridian Beast Mountain Range doesn't seem too happy about it, requesting an audience with your eminence."
"I see. Everything's going smoothly."
Davis deeply smiled, feeling relaxed and fulfilled as he was able to use his self-made power and achieve tremendous results in multiple areas. After all, his Reaper Soul Legion alone took on five hegemons in this recent expedition. That said, his brows raised in doubt.
"Any casualties?"
"Zero casualties, my Legion Master."
Threelotus giggled with pride in her tone, causing Davis to smirk proudly. He then gave further orders, but while he was doing so, a black-robed figure walked into this place, causing them to look at the newcomer.
It was none other than Mingzhi.
"Reaper Soul Legion..." Mingzhi arrived beside Davis as a smirk appeared on her face, "Should I call soul force... reiatsu? Heh~"
Hearing Mingzhi tease, Davis couldn't help but slightly blush, while Yotan and Threelotus had no idea what Mingzhi was talking about.
Mingzhi caught his ear blushing, but she didn't expose him and looked at Yotan and Threelotus, staring at them as she caused them some discomfort. Yotan and Threelotus weren't intimidated by Mingzhi, but they knew she was his sixth wife, which caused them to be a bit worried. After all, a single opinion on them could change the course of their lives.
However, Mingzhi took her gaze away from them and seemed like she was searching for something, causing Davis to be slightly confused.
"What do you want? Can't you see that I'm in a meeting?"
His tone seemed discontent. However, Mingzhi seemed unbothered before she suddenly frowned. "Meeting? Is this a company? Oh! I get it now! If the Reaper Soul Legion is a company and you're the CEO, and these two are your secretaries, where is your CEO table? Why don't I see your two secretaries underneath it?"
"...?"
Davis's eyes almost bulged out of his sockets, his mouth becoming slightly agape as he couldn't believe the kind of joke Mingzhi was making here. His gaze slightly fell on Yotan and Threelotus, but they were clueless as ever.
"Mingzhi, you-"
"Ah, I know." Mingzhi clamored with an innocent smile on her face, suddenly sticking her body close to him as she sexily whispered into his ear ever so softly, "You want me underneath that CEO table, don't you?"
Davis closed his eyes and mouth before he suddenly held her hand, opening his eyes as he looked into her eyes.
"Fine, you win."
He turned to look at Yotan and uttered, "Take care of the matters I spoke to you about."
"Yes"
Before Yotan could even reply, Davis turned around and left with Mingzhi.
He had been truly holding back, wanting to finish a few official matters first before making a move. However, Mingzhi's whisper was the straw that broke the camel's back, almost melting him then and there into bedding her.
On the other hand, Mingzhi's expression was full of smugness, her eyes glowing as though she had won a tournament or something.
'When it comes to seducing Davis, who can best me?'
