Chapter 1435 What's On The Table?
"Just leave it to me! I will help Sophie without fail!" Natalya smiled as she uttered confidently.
Sophie still looked dumbfounded. She then shook her head and opened her mouth.
"No..."
Davis blinked, "What? You believe Natalya got your back, right?
"I do... but, this...? This resource is too valuable. We wouldn't even find a resource like this in this place. I can't take it..." Sophie shook her head, walking towards him, intending to give it back.
"Stop, it's a gift from Shirley to you." Davis raised his hand, causing Sophie to stop.
"Shirley...?"
Davis's lips widened into a smile, "For those of you who don't know her, she is-"
"She would've been his first wife if I hadn't taken him from her..." Evelynn shortened it as she spoke with a red hue on her cheeks.
"False," Davis shook his head, "We mutually severed our marriage agreement made by our parents years ago, but we later made up like a month ago in the Burning Phoenix Ridge Territory. Even I tore the marriage agreement that I had with Evelynn in front of her entire family and took her away because I didn't particularly appreciate having relations with those opportunistic and greedy people. Hehe..."
"Waaa~"
The other three were taken over by curiosity to hear their past and felt a bit awed even.
Tore the marriage agreement both times made between two families, but he still had the women to himself?
One was a poison cultivator, and the other was a fire cultivator from the Burning Phoenix Ridge.
'What a man...!'
They couldn't help but inwardly scream at his savageness.
"Still, I have never met Shirley before..."
Sophie looked reluctant. This resource was not even Davis's, so she felt even more disinclined to take it.
"How could I-"
"I said the same thing to Shirley, that she did not owe you all anything, and she said that she is going to be sisters with you all but couldn't come because she is a bit busy in the Burning Phoenix Ridge. So now, if you reject this gift, it means that you reject her goodwill and her position in our family..." Davis deeply smiled as he shrugged.
"..."
"Well, if you still don't want it, I will be sure to tell Shirley that Sophie decli-"
"Ahh! I understand...! I won't refuse the gift anymore...!"
Sophie cried out, looking moved as tears welled up in her eyes.
"Obediently take what our man gives you, or he will bully you into taking it~" Natalya giggled.
"That's right." Fiora giggled as she spoke about her experience, "Davis keeps moving us to tears like this, as he just said a while ago, so be prepared to shed a river of joyful tears since you decided to become his woman..."
"It doesn't matter if you aren't able to create a Perfect Domain. Husband's love towards you wouldn't change just because you achieved something greater or lesser because Isabella and Shirley are definitely capable of achieving more than us, but they are still given the same importance as us...!"
Evelynn patted Sophie's back, cheering her up.
"Sisters..."
Sophie called out with emotion, her glazed purple eyes looking like it would shed even more tears.
She had imagined that she would face so many challenges to be accepted by his other women, but they readily accepted her, even treating her with respect instead of looking at her with animosity like she initially expected.
Davis also couldn't help but feel moved. His women sure did understand him, and even more, as they acted according to his likings. It was probably done from a subconscious level to attract him as he couldn't find any other ulterior feelings with his Heart Intent.
They were just pure flowers in his eyes, looking extremely beautiful while smiling at each other.
He walked forwards and embraced the silent Sophie, feeling her warmth spread through him. Evelynn sneakily took the jade container from Sophie's hands with concern to let them feel comfortable, and Sophie instantly wrapped her delicate arms around Davis, tightly embracing him as she hid her face in his chest, lightly sobbing from being emotionally moved.
"Sisters, I think we should leave since we had our time with husband..."
Evelynn sent a soul transmission to Natalya and Fiora.
"I feel the same way..."
"I agree..."
Natalya and Fiora replied to Evelynn as they smiled again at each other.
They turned around and walked. However, Evelynn stopped halfway, gave the jade container to Natalya, and sent a soul transmission to Davis.
"Remember to not take her innocence, or Isabella would become sad, perhaps enraged..."
"I won't..."
Davis smiled as he replied and watched them leave. The big sister was always looking after the sisters, making sure that they aren't hurt by the actions he took.
It wasn't long before the doors to the garden room shut. He locked it up with his soul force, lifting up Sophie's face as he held her chin with his fingers.
He could see her trembling purple eyes looking at him, knowing what he was going to do. Her small nose was red with all that crying, and her rosy lips that were pursed into an artistic shape made her appear gorgeous. When he used his hands to hold her slim waist and brush her silky blonde hair with his finger, she was soft to the touch, even looking melted by his embrace while all being red-faced.
"Sophie, you're so beautiful..."
Davis could no longer hold back as he leaned and took her lips, parted it open, and kissed softly, relishing her taste that he hadn't for a year. Her sweet lips moved, beginning to reciprocate his advances as she held him tightly, pasting herself over him as she kissed.
Their love was passionate, and it was getting hotter by the second.
Both Nadia and Eldia watched from a bit of a distance. However, no human ever bothered if a magical beast viewed them kiss their partner, at least not men. It was even less when it was a Spirit Attribute Source viewing them. Humans wouldn't probably mind being naked around Spirit Attribute Sources as it would better help them in cultivation.
After all, there was always this belief that the millions of pores in their bodies absorbing the energy around them given by elementals and essences would better help them comprehend laws.
At this point, Sophie had already bent a bit backward as Davis held her from falling while still kissing. He left her heaving for breath as her bosoms heaved, but as if she was thirsty, she held him tightly and badly sought out his lips, finding herself sharing love in a trance.
It was already three minutes since they started kissing, and finally, Davis left her lips, looking at her open her eyes as they quivered, looking glazed and blurred with love as she looked at him.
Davis had stopped because he was thick hard down there, and if he further agitated Sophie, she would become wet as well. He promptly stopped as he straightened her up as he stood straight, still holding her in an embrace.
Her body radiated comfortable warmth, and it reminded him of the time she had him in his embrace when he got a chunk of his soul essence sacrificed to kill those Scorched-Crystal Crimson Apes. She was very caring and even said something delirious that she would take care of him until death because she thought that she was responsible for him becoming a cripple.
He couldn't help but poke her nose as he found her endearing.
"Don't worry. I'm not going to take you now..."
Sophie let out a giggle, "I'm not worried. You can make me yours anytime..."
Davis blinked, "Are you not going to ask me to marry you...?"
"You will... I know it's just not now, but it would be later... Besides, you have so many women to marry that I understand you have your own troubles..."
Davis blinked, but he smiled, looking satisfied with her reply.
It was just like the matter with Niera, not to mention Fiora.
Fiora's parents didn't even ask him to marry her, but perhaps, they would ask later. It was just, they were expecting him to say it from his side, but then, he possibly couldn't at this moment as he already had his determination to go back and marry Isabella. So, they all didn't know that he kept her waiting for far too long.
Therefore, he felt that even fixing dates for marriage with other women was inappropriate, which was also why he hadn't spoken about it with them.
Davis separated from her as he patted her head, "Well, you're right about that. I have my own troubles, like now where I would should probably go meet Ancestor Dian Alstreim. But, I shouldn't probably keep them waiting for too long, lest they think that I'm intentionally disrespectful again."
"What!? Then you should go...!" Sophie panicked, "Don't care about me...!"
Davis chuckled, "Sophie, I didn't say this for you to send me off..."
"No...!" Sophie ran around and began to push him towards the exit, "Off you go...! You have more important matters to attend...!"
"Sophie, you're already bossing me around...?"
"Ah... I didn't mean to...!"
Sophie took her hands away, still panicking, except now she felt that she had done something terrible.
Davis turned around and looked at her face. Her innocent reaction was all the more something that made it worthwhile for him to love her. She was just too cute!
He reached out his hands and pulled her into an embrace before he kissed her once again. Again, it was a gentle kiss.
"You're more important to me, though..." Davis smiled as he hit forehead with his, looking into her eyes, "However, I'll listen to my good wife, no?"
Sophie's face turned beet red from all his teasing. However, she still nodded her head, wanting him to go.
Davis widely smiled as he shook her hair, "Then take care! I'll be off!"
"Mhm..."
Davis and Sophie exited the garden room while Nadia and Eldia entered his soul sea and dantian respectfully. He made his way towards Silverwind's Palace but noticing that Ancestor Dian Alstreim and Ancestor Tirea Snow were not there, he headed towards the Ancestral Hall where he found them.
"Ancestor, so what's on the table?"
Davis asked with curiosity. It was rather rare that they would come to his place together to talk about something.
Ancestor Dian Alstreim pondered for a moment before he narrowed his eyes.
"To start, the Forsaken Phoenix Realm's secret entrance is opening next year. Do you want me to send young ones to vainly die in your people's hands or have them pull back altogether? But the latter might invite suspicion if we suddenly pull back..."
Davis blinked.
Was it already going to be fifteen years since he first entered the Fifty-Two Territories?
'Woah, time sure does fly fast...'
Numerous memories rushed back to this mind, making him feel nostalgic. He was nothing but an eleven-year-old when he had entered, but he was now twenty-five and a half! It was almost going to be fifteen years from that time!
