Chapter 1459 - Conquest

Davis returned and swooped his women into an invisible embrace with his soul force and made them hop on Nadia while he did the same. They traveled to the location of the secret entrance, entering the sacred grounds of the Guardian Alliance in fifteen minutes as Nadia traveled slower this time, wanting to enjoy the breeze along with them as she flapped her dark wings.

The others also didn’t say anything as this was like an outing as they enjoyed the scenery together, giggling and laughing while Davis felt like he was submerged in a bouquet of flowers. Their soft and melodious voices, not to mention their fragrant aroma that he could inhale, were positively affecting his mental health.

’No wonder men intrinsically crave many women... It’s hard to resist natural instincts without a strong belief in monogamist morals...’

Davis inwardly smirked before he looked at the mountains and valleys in the sacred grounds of the Guardian Alliance. A few thousand meters away is the secret entrance leading to the Tripartite Alliance Territory, but his destination wasn’t there but here, where the experts of the Guardian Alliance headquarters were present.

Most of them tend to gather five years before the opening because it was a rule from ancient times.

What if the formation inside the main entrance stopped working or somewhat malfunctioned and allowed numerous people to enter the Grand Sea Continent a bit sooner or even a few years before unexpectedly? That would be disastrous, so a few experts would always gather at this place before time, and since there was only a year left, many have already gathered.

Davis saw a yellow flag on the highest mountain, imprinted with a shield that possessed a multitude of colors, indicating the diverse background of its members. This is the flag of the Guardian Alliance, so he was sure he arrived at the right place and had basically confirmed it when a few cultivators rose to the skies, their undulations at the Law Seed Stage.

However, his brows raised when he saw that all of their undulations were at the Peak-Level of Law Seed Stage that he couldn’t help but inwardly nod at their cultivation.

The powerhouses of the Grand Sea Continent were surely growing along with the Loret Empire and the Ruth Empire.

"Halt! This is the sacred grounds of the Guardian Alliance, and people are barred fr-"

Someone had just begun to holler when another person abruptly appeared in front of him and shut his mouth. This elderly person’s undulations again raised a brow from Davis as he could see that he was actually at the Law Manifestation Stage. Two other old men quickly arrived and stood beside him, radiating the same kind of undulations.

"Can’t you see that’s Crown Prince Davis Loret?"

The person who stopped the man from warning, spoke, causing the latter’s eyes to go wide.

"It’s him...!"

Every Fifth Stage Cultivator who had gathered here began to exchange words through soul transmission while Davis shook his head.

"...!?"

As expected, everyone’s expression changed while the three Law Manifestation Experts looked fairly disgruntled, as if they had already expected this to happen.

Davis smirked.

"Originally, I should kill all of you since you’re all powerful enough to threaten us, but since the Guardian Alliance has protected the Grand Sea Continent for thousands and thousands of years, I’m willing to make a concession. The Guardian Alliance is to dissolve from this day forwards, never to see the light again."

Davis’s voice resounded, exuding the authority of an Emperor, and it was more the case since he was the Crown Prince while his little sister became a frightening Empress. Still, he continued as he looked around.

"As for you all, you can go back to wherever you really came from and start a kingdom or sect or stay like a hermit. We won’t bother you. You can do anything you want other than evil deeds and not offend the formation of a new power that would emerge along with my long-awaited marriage with the princess of the Ruth Empire."

The three old men’s eyes became sharp as they narrowed.

They felt resentment and reluctance.

The Loret Empire and Ruth Empire were different from their Guardian Alliance. They did not absorb any Fifth Stage Cultivators but made their own with their resources from the Immortal Inheritances and the other side.

It angered the Guardian Alliance so much that when they thought they could do something a few years later after the Loret Emperor left, they got inevitably intimidated by the cold Empress’s prowess that froze people into ice statues instantly. Even more, when she uttered words that demanded them to commit suicide, they really killed themselves as they exploded their revolving cores, causing her name to resound infamously among the powers of the Grand Sea Continent.

She had grown too fast for them to handle, and as they knew that she would eventually become the inheritor of the Ice Phoenix Immortal, they didn’t dare to offend her, and when they set their sights on the legendary Ruth Empire, they were scared off by that Earth Dragon at the Seventh Stage that also seemingly protected the Loret Empire for unknown reasons until a year ago where it became clear after the announcement of the marriage between Crown Prince Davis Loret and Princess Isabella.

Even before that, there was literally nothing they could have done other than s.u.c.k.i.n.g their fingers, watching them enjoy the ton of resources that they couldn’t get their hands on just from their authority. The only option left for them was to buy these resources from the two Empires through formal channels and auctions, which they did and increased their strengths, all of them reaching the Peak-Level of Law Seed Stage in a short few years while three of them managed to enter the Law Manifestation Stage.

Davis wasn’t surprised by these old Law Manifestation Stage Cultivators. They were stuck too long in the Law Seed Stage that he felt that they deserved a major breakthrough. Moreover, if these people were given more time, it wouldn’t be unusual if they all broke through to the Law Manifestation Stage.

After all, with the Loret Empire and Ruth Empire colluding and circulating Low-Level Spirit Stones and Vein Fragments like drugs, except in little quantities while being overpriced, with the latter being more so sold in extremely tiny quantity while being exorbitantly priced, the two Empires stood to gain a massive amount of purple coins while they gained cultivation.

Although purple coins were mostly useless in the First Layer, it was still the main currency in the Grand Sea Continent.

In truth, the Loret and Ruth Empires possessed no need to release spirit stones to the market. It was theirs, and they could do whatever they want with it as they possessed enough strength to protect themselves. It was the people who were both resentful and thankful to them for distributing spirit stones while overpricing them.

These people had Lower Grade Revolving Cores that their limit would be at the Law Manifestation Stage, or perhaps the Law Dominion Stage at best. If they wanted to improve further, they must begin from scratch by destroying their cores like Logan once did, but they would probably die with the loss of vitality if they did. Most of them were already at the end of their lifespan, even if they were at the Gold Stage, where it offered a thousand-year lifespan, so it made no sense for them to be more suicidal by offending the two Empires.

These old men already looked as if they use life-extending medicines and pills to keep them alive. Therefore, Davis was fairly assured that they would submit to his rule. That is... if they wanted to keep their remaining lifespan by craving life!
