Chapter 1429: Im Coming With You All (1/2)

”Oh...? No wonder you were so arrogant all this time... It is indeed acceptable...”

Ezekiel Alstreim's eyes flashed with curiosity.

”I want to know how I would be able to fare against a Soul King. I've also never fought one before, so care to entertain me somewhere else?”

Davis couldn't help but chuckle as he was about to reply, but...

”I advise you all from wanting to challenge him to know his true prowess.” Ancestor Dian Alstreim's voice resounded out, causing everyone to look at him.

”He sneakily attacked me and was able to seal my cultivation for a few seconds with a mysterious spirit formation, and that was more than enough time for a Soul King to kill you if you're unlucky without any soul defenses put in place.”

He shook his head, looking rueful. He wanted them not to began a fight in the name of exchanging friendly blows just when the situation had become amicable.

Ezekiel Alstreim blinked while all the others looked shocked. Especially Claire, who couldn't help but worry why under the heavens her son would do that. She was proud, but what if Ancestor had taken it in the wrong way?

”Why did you do that for?” She pouted.

”Just cause...”

Davis winked as he really didn't have a valid reason. He just wanted to see what it would be like when he fought against a Law Rune Stage Powerhouse, just like how Ezekiel Alstreim wanted to see how he would fare against him.

Claire couldn't resist hitting him by the side.

The Solitary Soul Avatar got the hit while the real Davis grinned from Niera's side.

Looking at Logan, who smilingly shook his head, he couldn't help but say with a teasing intent.

”Father, you're awfully silent this whole time...”

Logan, who already possessed a smile, deeply smiled at this moment.

”Davis, what else do I have to do when I have an excellent and capable son like you? You came from me, so whatever you do, the reputation of the outcome will also naturally come to me,”

Logan looked as if he had triumphed while Davis became flabbergasted, about to complain that it was unfair when the former continued.

”... even the bad ones. I'm just standing here, feeling glad that you haven't strayed to the wicked path as the people call here. I'm glad that you're just a pervert like me and not an evil man.”

Davis was extremely moved but hearing his father speak, but at the end, his expression began to twitch.

”That girl... She's Nora's little sister...?”

”Yes...” Davis answered, shaking his head, ”She-”

”Should I call her sister-in-law or daughter-in-law...?”

Logan had a confused yet teasing smile on his face while Davis's expression instantly froze. He looked away and let out an exasperated breath.

”The latter...”

”Hahaha! Did you think I was going to call her the former?”

Logan teased while Davis knew he had lost this one. If it were before, he would've teased back his father, but after having a good time... an extremely good time with his sister-in-law Fiora in bed, he could only have his mouth shut. He couldn't be two-faced about this, nor did his parents know about Fiora.

If they did, Logan wouldn't have dared to make this cliched joke as he would know that he would've made things awkward! After all, it was quite common that a common family would marry off sisters to a powerful man, especially if he were wealthy, authoritative, and well-protected as well.

Claire lightly hit Logan, chastising him for making the atmosphere awkward between them.

Logan chuckled, ”In any case, you're the one making the calls, Davis. I'll just sit back and enjoy my life, perhaps adventure with my wives like I wanted to.”

”It's not like I want to make the calls all the time.”  Davis shrugged, ”You can make the decisions, father, but you have to be responsible for it as I am for my own.”

”Nope, I almost exhausted my life being an Emperor. I am not one, nor do I want to become one again...” Logan shook his head, ”You always think the best for us while we think the same for you. So, all your father wants to say is don't be bent on cultivation all the time. With the way you're going, it is as if though you're going to get retribution from the heavens..!”

”We heard from father-in-law that you saved Tia from a... heavenly tribulation?”

A soul transmission fell on Davis's head.

Logan's tone was inquisitive and proud, while his eyes were deep with worry. Even Claire looked the same, looking as if she was reproaching him for doing something dangerous like facing a heavenly tribulation, especially for someone else.

Davis's expression became a bit proud instead.

”I saved mother's little sister. Don't you two feel proud of me?”

”We do... I feel like if I died at this moment, I would have no regrets for having a son like you, but do you not know that a father's greatest fear is to see his son die before him?” Logan narrowed his eyes.

Davis blinked, feeling like his father became a bit emotional.

Indeed, both Logan and Claire were distraught when they heard Edgar Alstreim's account. Davis wasn't even at the foot of the Ninth Stage, and yet he had already faced a heavenly tribulation of the legends! Fortunately, he had crossed it, but when they heard it, they thought that Edgar Alstreim came to announce the news of Davis's death to them. They were practically frozen stiff at that time, almost scarred for life.
