"What? Do you people have trouble if I look into who is responsible for trying to assassinate me?"

Isabella's voice abruptly turned cold, causing Thorus Zlatan to shake his hands.

​​

"How can it be? Anybody has the right to investigate the people who target their lives. It's just..."

He forced a smile out of his twisting expression that he tried to suppress.

"It isn't safe to do so without the support of powers like us."

"Thank you for your much-needed concern." Isabella clasped her hands and nodded as if she understood, "However, if I may dare say, my Protector is stronger than you all think."

"Is that so...? I see..."

Thorus Zlatan's lips twitched.

He couldn't find anything to say after being rejected twice.

At this point, he just hoped that those elites didn't bring anything with them that would make them identify as members of the Dragon Family. However, if their elites went to do something, they would only see success, so it was normal that they brought their spatial rings, but this time, it was out of their calculations to see them fail without even trying.

Obviously, he didn't believe that a Killing Formation slaughtered them all in an instant. Instead, he, no, they all believed...

'It's that damned protector...!'

They clenched their fists in rage but could only force a smile on their faces.

However, never did they imagine that Isabella had anything to do with this, not even once!

Looking at Isabella stump the likes of Thorus Zlatan, and the other Dragon Families Powerhouses, Davis was practically crying in pride. His Isabella has grown so much to be spouting nonsense like him.

He watched her fly towards him while she waved her hand, collecting the corpses back into her spatial ring. Someone instantly came to clean the blood but the aura practically leaking from it confirmed that it was a dragon's aura, similar to a human who possesses dragon's blood.

They have heard no dragon blood cultivators belonging to the wicked path. However, no one dared to utter something or point their hands towards the Dragon Families.

People were not stupid.

They could tell what was going on, but they wouldn't say anything that ends up harming themselves. In the grand scheme of things, they were aware that they were insignificant people. No, they were made to understand that today, after seeing so many perfect domains and powerhouses that instantly widened their horizons.

They, who thought they were relevant, ended up seeing a small part of the grand world they lived in and almost caved as their hearts became depressed. Part of this reason is why their elders mostly never tell the young ones about the wider world because when they see it, they would have to have a strong mentality that would not break but instead motivate them.

Otherwise, they could only be satisfied with mediocrity.

The Alstreim Family cultivators scrambled to make space for Dragon Queen Isabella but seeing her walk towards Davis and his bevy of beautiful women, their jaws dropped, but then they remembered that he was her favorite subordinate.

The fact that he had conjured a Perfect Domain truly put him above the rest, making them immensely respect him that they even forgot that he was her subordinate. Nevertheless, a certain few elders who knew the true relationship between Davis and Isabella shivered as they glanced at the Dragon Families Powerhouses.

It was as if they saw a scandal play out right in front of their eyes, but it was something that they couldn't leak a word of no matter what. Otherwise, there is a valid chance that their Alstreim Family would be razed to the grounds.

Soon, Isabella arrived in front of Davis, her beautiful black eyes gazing at him.

Davis and Isabella looked at each other, knowing each other's intents.

In truth, both of them didn't wish to aggravate the Dragon Families, but if they insist, they could only take the fight to them because they were strong enough to do so. It was just they were worried about the others that they had to tread carefully.

However, things would drastically change in a year or two, and they would have no longer had to act like this because Davis would finally reach Emperor Soul Stage.

At that time, who in this Fifty-Two Territories could possibly be a match for him?

It would be the same as when he made the Grand Sea Continent fear and revere him just by hearing his name.

At this time, Mo Mingzhi stood up from Davis's side and seated herself beside Fiora.

Isabella's eyes lit up before she nodded at Mo Mingzhi. The way she sat together with Davis, she could see that Davis already accepted Mo Mingzhi in his heart. She smirked at Davis before she sat beside him, very close to him that it made all jaws drop!

This... wasn't this too close!?

Was this supposed to be a master-subordinate relationship!?

Everyone couldn't help but glance at the Dragon Family members and saw that their expressions turned red in rage. They could be seen clenching their teeth while their expressions twisted, looking almost as if they had just eaten shit.

"...!?"

The crowd was mindblown at this moment!

What was Dragon Queen Isabella trying to pull!? Or were they just looking too much into it?"

Ancestor Dian Alstreim, who saw the current state of affairs, almost had an urge to facepalm.

'These youngsters... couldn't they just hold on for a while...?'

However, he couldn't blame them as he knew that they were married.

If he and Tirea Snow could not sit together even after being married, he would be outraged as well.

It was just, looking at the twisting expression of the Dragon Family Powerhouses, who looked as if they had just been cuckolded, he could only shake his head as he knew trouble was going to ensue.

Could it be that his marriage wouldn't go smoothly even after he somehow got rid of the troubles that haunted him?

Nevertheless, the banquet continued for the moment.

With the entrance of Dragon Queen Isabella, many began to talk about her past achievements, like how she defeated the Aqua Flood Dragon, having it scram just by displaying her bloodline aura.

Quite some time passed like this, with the situation being a bit tense on every side because the Four Great Dragon Families appeared as if they could explode at any time.

"Dragon Queen Isabella."

Thorus Zlatan's voice suddenly echoed out, garnering everyone's attention, including Davis and the others.

"I would advise that it isn't good to entertain a subordinate too much no matter how loyal they may be. It's necessary to make them know once in a while that they're not the same even if they become somewhat equal in strength."

"..."

Isabella blinked before she nodded.

"You're right."

She then lifted her butt, seemingly standing up after listening to his advice. Just when everyone thought she was going to move away, she moved her butt towards Davis's direction and sat closer to him, her arm practically touching his as the same as his first wife, Evelynn.

Thorus Zlatan's expression twisted.

This... was her movements intent on humiliating the Dragon Families!? Or does she loves this brat!? He couldn't understand which because both seem plausible!

*Bzzz!~*

"Brat! You went too far after I gave you so many warnings!"

Low-Level Martial Overlord Stage undulations began to spread. It was full of might, certainly capable of suppressing average Low-Level Martial Overlords. The people who weren't even subjected to that kind of pressure had to hold their breaths as they felt that their hearts were going to leap out of their throats.

Nevertheless, Davis blinked.

Isabella was the one who sat beside him, and yet he was getting the insult because he was unworthy or a sore sight for their eyes?

"Ahaha!"

He couldn't help but laugh, "I went too far? Maybe you should've thought twice before sending your elite to kidnap my Young Mistress, no? Who's the one who went too far?"

"What!? How dare you falsely accuse us!? Do you want to die, you lowly punk!?"

"What did you say?"

Davis's eyes became sharp at this moment. His sudden killing intent projected at Thorus Zlatan abruptly made him feel cold, causing him to feel as if though he had been placed in an area colder than what he felt when he was in Ancestor Xia Yun's icy breeze.

He practically shivered, looking at Davis with wide eyes as if he couldn't believe what he just felt from a youth less than a hundred years of age.

"Seems like you want to die, Thorus Zlatan..."

Isabella's legs floated as she flew slightly above, her eyes filled with dead calm as if she couldn't tolerate what she heard.

No one should threaten her husband like that...!

At the same time, a black-robed person who had his facial features covered by a dark mask slowly approached them.

It was as if no one could feel the life in him as he walked past many cultivators and even experts, appearing as if he was non-existent in their eyes. However, from his figure, one could see that he is a man.

Once he arrived near his target, his hand slowly reached out towards a green-robed woman.

'Evelynn Loret... she certainly has an extremely mature charm oozing out of her that makes me wonder how poisonous she would be in bed...'

As he licentiously thought, his palm was practically just a few inches away from grabbing her wrist when a hand suddenly grabbed his wrist.

"...?"

When he turned to look at the person who intercepted, it was none other than that pipsqueak husband he heard about. They locked gaze, seemingly staring at each other, but he was dumbfounded to be caught.

Wasn't this pipsqueak husband just locked eyes with Thorus Zlatan as if they were going to battle? How did he notice him when he actually concealed?

Nevertheless, believing that it was luck, an evil grin appeared on his face as his sinister lips moved.

"I'll take this gem off of your hands, you little squirt!"

His other arm moved simultaneously, intending to slap Davis far away as his hand swung in an arc!
