Isabella and the others arrived at the Starlight Jade Wolf Clan's main palace.
There was no need to speak about its luxurious architecture filled with homage to the Starlight Jade Wolf and even its supposed ancestor that they had no idea about currently. Nonetheless, they were cordially invited into the palace and made sure to be treated with the highest respect with carpets rolled, almost every guard along the way bowing towards their superior existence.
Although they also immensely respected the Earth Dragon's overbearing aura, they had their eyes on Nadia, who was still in her tiny form that, left them both speechless yet also fearful.
They thought that their opposite nature would make them hate or mock her, but it was the complete opposite. They could feel their souls being reverential towards her, as though her death-attributed race was also one of their foremost ancestors.
It was a different kind of feeling they rarely experienced when encountering the rare dark-attributed wolves.
But more than anything, they wondered how under the heavens, an Anarchic Divergent managed to court all these women. According to the news, only Empress Nadia seemed to be an Emperor-Tier Immortal Beast, but as for the others, they did not exude such an aura, so their lineup was shocking, to say the least.
The Starlight Jade Wolf Clan's Patriarch also had the same doubt, but knowing Davis, who possessed life energy, he imagined that he was capable of doing all sorts of things, including healing himself from near death and increasing the bloodline quality of a person or beast.
Otherwise, he couldn't see how this Emperor-Tier Mortal Beast, Nadia, had the capability to become an Emperor-Tier Immortal King Beast. Even to him, that was ridiculous unless Nadia was the child of one or two Emperor-Tier Immortal Emperor Beasts successfully giving birth to her. However, she was from the Grand Beginnings Continent as well, so he couldn't see that happening unless she had some grand origin that he wasn't aware of.
Still, even if she had a grand origin, it didn't explain how his other wives are capable of exuding Emperor-Tier aura at the Immortal King Stage!
'An Immortal King Stage Earth Dragon Empress…. An Immortal King Burning Phoenix Empress… and Empress Nadia…'
He still couldn't believe it, heaving a heavy sigh before turning around.
The Fire Phoenix Clan's Immortal Inheritor also seemed fairly confident in their presence, not to mention the first-ranked immortal disciple from the Aurora Cloud Gate, who was noted to have inherited an ancient inheritance left behind by the Frostcloud Sword Empress.
'Ridiculous… ridiculous…'
He had to utter twice in his mind, coming to understand that it was no wonder Davis remained impervious to the advances of many women, even the Celestial Fairies until he could no longer take it. However, he didn't know it wasn't the case either.
"My Starlight Jade Wolf Clan would like to thank you all for saving our troops."
He cupped his hands again and gestured at the seats on the big and luxurious table.
At the same time, Isabella also cupped her hands again.
"No. This calamity was brought by us, so we'll take responsibility for it. We are grateful that the Starlight Jade Wolf Clan and two other clans would decide to stay as allies with us. We will not forget this favor."
"It is just as the rumors said." The Starlight Jade Wolf King smilingly nodded, "The Earth Dragon Inheritance Master has indeed chosen a worthy inheritor. It's no wonder the Earth Dragon Clan would look up to you, not insisting on putting up a Blood Soul Contract to recruit you."
"That was certainly not the case, but they sure did change their stance when they came to know that I was an Empress among them."
Isabella smirked behind her veil before she put down her hands, "We wanted to visit your clan for another reason, and that was to convey our apologies for now showing up despite being invited back then."
"Ah~ That's fine. I'm sure you were all busy settling down in the Aurora Cloud Gate and entrenching your positions there. Who doesn't have difficulties?"
Patriarch Fenren Jadelight shook his head and sat along with them on the table, with the two other immortals inheritors also accompanying him.
"I had a huge trap ready for the invading forces on the next city they would most likely descend on, but-"
Davion Jadelight wryly smiled as he made himself somewhat comfortable before the Empresses, "-it seems like there would be no need for it unless they continued the invasion despite incurring heavy losses."
He cupped his hands, "I thank you all for the timely assistance. After all, we managed to avoid losses in the billions by protecting the border city."
Isabella saw that the other party was also an immortal inheritor like her. Moreover, she also knew when he said billions, it was considered in High-Level Immortal Crystals that Immortal Emperors use. Such a figure was truly mindboggling, and the pain one might feel when lost would be as though losing one's own parents for a power.
After all, most border cities were also commercial cities where merchant activities were heavily practiced. In terms of liquidity, they were even richer than cities in the inner zone. Only the cities in the core zone would be richer.
Nonetheless, Isabella and the others recognized that they had done a big deed by choosing to interfere on that battlefield. They couldn't help but smile, knowing that they at least managed to repay something for the burden they had cast on them.
"That said, I also want to ask about something important, the reason for the start of our relationship."
Isabella raised her brows, "Does the Starlight Jade Wolf King mean Everlight?"
"Yes. We haven't received any word from her even after the event a week ago."
Patriarch Fenren Jadelight nodded, feeling his breath stuck.
These Empresses… would they even appreciate Everlight's existence there? His gaze fell on Nadia, but he quickly glanced away, unable to keep his eyes on her serene gaze that could not be gazed upon so easily as a fellow wolf.
Forgetting her empress aura, she was also a death-attributed wolf that struck fear into the hearts of many despite her tiny frame. If one wasn't a wolf, they wouldn't understand the feeling of reverence and fear towards her, and he could see that very clearly with how uncomfortable the immortal inheritors beside him were.
He imagined this was especially the case since she was almost in the same realm as them, Late Immortal King Stage.
Isabella couldn't help but giggle ever so lightly, "It would be an understatement to say that she is-"
