Divine Emperor of Death
Chapter 1689 - Shape The Ice?
Evelynn, Natalya, Isabella, and Mo Mingzhi were all curious as they looked at Iesha, glancing at a spirit for the first time in their lives. They were all struck with a kind of awe for the unknown, and knowing that she was with Davis, they weren't particularly bothered whether if she posed a threat or not and instead viewed her with openness and the composure of an expert.
During these two days, they had all been cuddled by Davis, not on the bed, but he took care of them all, making conversations with each other as he went around, spending time with them individually as much as possible.
Other than Tina Roxley, who was unfortunately secluded in cultivation, he met everyone and thoroughly satisfied them mentally as their man. The two days went so smoothly for them that they felt that it was a dream after the nightmare that happened many months ago.
However, he also mentioned that he met this Frigid World Spirit who moved his heart, making them curious to find out what kind of person she is. They all pestered him and arrived here to greet her instead of having the patience to wait in the Purple Guest Palace.
Iesha glanced at Evelynn, Natalya, Isabella, and Mo Mingzhi with narrowed eyes before she turned her gaze towards Natalya.
"Are you his wife who trains in Ice Laws and Yin Laws?"
Natalya nodded, "I am.."
Iesha couldn't help but wryly smile, "For you, Davis almost slaughtered my empire."
Natalya raised her brows as she turned to look towards Davis.
"She's exaggerating, although I do agree that I would've killed my way out."
Davis chuckled as he looked at Iesha.
"The Davis beside you is my soul body."
"True."
At this moment, the Solitary Soul Avatar spoke, causing Iesha's heart to skip a beat.
"What? You mean to say that you defeated my father with a soul body?"
"Well," Davis pursed his lips as he shook his head, "This is a special soul body where its prowess is better than mine but still lacks the true prowess when I become serious."
"What?"
Iesha couldn't understand, and neither did Davis bother to explain before he looked at his wives.
"You can all talk to her if you want to learn more about spirits. She's quite knowledgeable too."
"I'm interested~"
Isabella spoke as she viewed Iesha like she was viewing prey while Natalya patted her shoulder.
"Third sister, you shouldn't scare this poor spirit. I feel somewhat responsible for her life that has steered clear from her home."
"Davis was the one who made a move to plunder from her empire, though?"
Isabella raised her brows, causing Natalya to nod.
"Yes, that's why the responsibility falls on me. The problems that my husband created because of me are also mine. Since he wants to give her a place to live, I will take that responsibility in order to lessen his burden."
Natalya spoke with conviction while Davis and Iesha looked at each other, both not aware of Natalya's thoughts.
Iesha bit her lips as she stared at these beauties. He had so many already, and she couldn't sense the cultivation bases of two women, Evelynn and Isabella, which clearly told her about his status and the level of attention he obtained from female humans.
Nevertheless, knowing that they welcomed her due to his word, she nodded while still piggybacking Pia.
"Please take care of me."
Natalya's brows lifted up before she smiled.
"Although I'm weaker than you, you can count on me, Iesha."
"Those words are wasted on me because I was the one who had been wanting to meet you."
Natalya raised her brows.
"I've heard your reaso-"
"No, not for that. I wanted to know what kind of woman could make a man of such caliber move and reach to an unknown land to plunder, but it turns out that he had many women he cared about. Furthermore, can I know who's the first wife?"
"That would be me."
Iesha's heart shook as she glanced at the woman who gave a sinister aura. She looked like plenty able to defend herself, so why would Davis state that he killed those millions of people for her?
She felt like she had to find out but also knew that she asked too many questions.
"You are fortunate."
Evelynn's lips couldn't help but curve as she received that compliment from Iesha.
"I get that a lot. Let's not stay in this place. We'll head back home."
"Home...?"
Iesha suddenly became lost for a moment as she blinked before she nodded.
"Yes, please take me with you."
"No need to be so formal, Iesha. You're a kind girl."
Evelynn gently smiled before she sent Davis a soul transmission.
At this moment, the Solitary Soul Avatar clasped Iesha's hands and brought her away.
"You're not coming?"
She asked the main body while he nodded.
"My soul body is together with you. Nothing will happen, so go on and make yourself at home."
Iesha's worried expression disappeared, replaced with a smile as she nodded and left with the Solitary Soul Avatar. Natalya also joined with them, making them all aware that what she said about taking care of Iesha just wasn't some empty words.
However, she also left a soul body with them, which was Natalya's very first Solitary Soul Avatar!
In fact, Evelynn, Isabella, Natalya, Sophie, and Niera all had their own Solitary Soul Avatars in their soul seas at the moment, more or less learning and gaining knowledge like he was using his avatar most of the time.
As for their injured souls, it took some time to heal their souls, but they were as good as new. It was their own choice to want to have one in any case. He did not force them. However, it caused the time taken to learn things to lessen, which was a good thing overall!
Nevertheless, Davis turned to look at Evelynn, wondering why she asked him to stay.
"Davis, the fact that you brought Iesha, a spirit back, giving her a place to stay and even allowed Natalya to look after her means..."
"..."
Evelynn asked in front of everyone while Davis possessed a blank expression on his face before he heavily nodded.
"Well, many things happened between Iesha and me that caused her to be more or less exiled out of her empire, but yeah, I know that I like her enough to love her, but I don't know how she truly feels, although I have an inkling that she does. In any case, I don't even have time to look after you all first, so I'm not in any hurry to court her."
"Don't be like that. You look after us more than you think you do..."
Evelynn pouted.
"First, it was Nadia, a magical beast, and now it's Iesha, a spirit." Mo Mingzhi giggled, "Hehe~ With my eyes that can see the future, I know where you're going with this~"
"Ahaha~"
She placed a finger on her forehead and made her eyes appear dark and endless with her Darkness Laws, causing the others to laugh while Davis felt that he deserved this kind of bullying for being selfish and greedy like this.
"In any case, Iesha needs time to adapt to us, and perhaps if she still likes me after that, I'm going to try courting her."
"I think she won't reject even if you courted her now."
Evelynn blinked at him while Davis frowned.
"That will feel somewhat forceful."
"What do you know?" Mo Mingzhi sneered, "Women like me like their man being somewhat forceful."
"Well, she's not you." Davis smirked, "She's gentle like Evelynn. I don't think she-"
"I loved it when you courted me forcefully back then, awkward yet full of sincerity~"
Evelynn stared at him with a passionate gaze.
Davis was rather taken aback before he viewed her with the same passionate gaze that invoked his lust for her.
"Ah, Evelynn. Stop it. You're making me jealous."
Mo Mingzhi pouted, causing Evelynn to turn her gaze towards her and gently stroke her head.
"There, there... I know how you worked hard to court Davis."
"Hmph~"
Mo Mingzhi looked away, trying to act as if she was not embarrassed at all.
"On that note, we're the same, Mingzhi." Natalya grinned, "Don't worry about it. I've come a long way from feeling anxious to feeling cherished, and I promise you will feel the same soon."
"I know that as I already feel that, but..." Mo Mingzhi clenched her fists, "But I wanted to be his first so bad...!"
"That..." Isabella couldn't help but chuckle, "You should forget about it. If we fought for who's going to be his first, then we'll probably create a situation where Davis would kill either one of us for stepping out of our bounds."
"I didn't say that kind of first, but I meant his first woman." Mo Mingzhi dejectedly shook her head, "I know I can't change that without going to the past, but still, from a very young age, I wanted to be his bride and wanted to be courted by him like I read in romantic novels, and yet, I had to do all the thing I wanted him to do to me."
This time, both Natalya and Isabella reached out their hands and rubbed Mo Mingzhi's head, treating her as if she was their little sister who should be consoled once in a while. Isabella still remembered how Mo Mingzhi was adamant back then, even going as far as to lay her life on the line in order to prove that her love and obsession towards Davis was not fake or for monetary gain.
She had respect for this kind of woman who matched with her views.
On the other hand, Davis looked at his women move the conversation without him. He wanted to point out what they're saying wasn't the case many times but didn't as he wanted to see what they were up to.
What did they take him for? A tyrant?
Davis couldn't remember being violent with his lovely women other than on the bed.
"That's why, Davis..." Mo Mingzhi suddenly cast a look at him, "You can't be too concerned. You must strike while the iron is hot if you want Iesha! Ah, in this case, it is 'shape the ice while it is solidifying', huh?"
"Hehehe!~"
She looked as if she was contemplating while the others laughed at her words.
Davis shook his head in happiness, wondering how they could be so supportive of his actions. He didn't know that to them; it no longer bothered or bothered less because he had so many women already, not one or two or less than five, to be saying no to him anymore. Besides, after he almost died, they did not think of inhibiting him anymore, for the sacrifice he made for them alone was more than enough to fill their hearts with unconditional love, more or less.
In truth, crossing that calamitous event together and reconciling their most differences also caused them to become closer as one family.
Soon, they returned back to the Purple Guest Palace as they talked.
"That's right. Tomorrow, the Dragon Families are going to send their resolutions to us. I hope they chose war like the stubborn people they are. Otherwise-"
"No, they're going to choose to send their Dragon Queens as slaves."
Davis shook his head, causing Isabella's eyes to go wide.
"What?"
"I don't get it. They have the pride of a dragon within them, and yet, they choose to-"
"Isabella, we can talk about the matter of pride over on the bed..."
"You...!"
Davis captured Isabella's wrist in front of the others while her face went beet red, wondering what he was saying while she was talking seriously. Evelynn smirked while Mo Mingzhi whistled, shooting them a lewd look that just made her even more embarrassed.
"Third sis, it's your turn according to what we all agreed upon..." Natalya giggled.
Isabella bit her lips before she shyly lowered her head as she relented.
'This scoundrel...' She knew that he definitely chose to do that in front of Evelynn, Natalya, and Mo Mingzhi on purpose so that she could not strike back at him or tease him for making her feel excited and embarrassed.
Moments later, Davis beamed with a lewd smile as he took Isabella away to his room.
