Zestria Domitian truly couldn't find anything to hold onto other than Davis's legs.

If she was bought and taken away by Quara, she knew that she wouldn't have a good ending, much less a good death! So how could she let herself be taken away just like that!?

"Please... I'm willing to become yours..."

Zestria Domitian bit her lips while her limpid crimson eyes were pitiable, looking quite desperate. Rather than reply to his question, she could repeat to save herself.

"Go await my decision."

Davis coldly spoke as he used his soul force to move Zestria Domitian away from him. If she stayed before him any longer, perhaps something else would rise in him other than pity and sympathy.

He dropped her beside Bylai Zlatan, who caught her as she was unable to hold her footing as she looked pale and powerless.

Zestria Domitian silently cried as she lowered her head.

Was she going to be sold off just like that?

Would things have turned out differently if she had become his woman today while she had the chance?

Many questions crossed her mind. Particularly at this moment, she never thought she would feel worse than being enslaved, making her understand that she had been rather treated well all this time for being brought in as a slave.

After all, she still wasn't made to do anything worse for all the worst-case scenarios she imagined in her mind.

Furthermore, it must be understood that the Scarlet Tyrant Hawks haven't had a taste of the Domitian Family's Fire Dragon Blood for over five hundred years. She couldn't bear to imagine what would happen if she was taken to the Scarlet Tyrant Hawk Abode, where every male magical beast might view her with licentious eyes rather than just one person.

But contrary to her worst-case scenarios, Quara intended to solely reserve Zestria Domitian to herself so that she may benefit to a maximum possible level.

"Please consider the trade. Our talks further will also improve upon receiving a favorable answer from your eminence."

Quara reminded, causing Davis to nod as he went into contemplation.

Isabella's lips moved as though she sent a soul transmission to Davis, causing Zestria Domitian's heart to skip a beat. She was truly scared of Isabella's ruthlessness, but considering the wrong her Domitian Family had done to her, she could only blame her family for it.

Davis finally appeared like he had made his decision before he looked exasperated.

"Sigh, although tempting, I've decided not to give away Zestria Domitian."

"...!?"

Quara's expression froze while Zestria Domitian's eyes widened, both of them looking shocked by his answer.

"Why?" Quara instantly rebutted, "If it is a matter of resour-"

"Enough."

Davis lifted his hand, causing Quara to forcefully shut her mouth.

"Although Zestria Domitian is a wrongdoer to us as she is from the Domitian Family, she herself hadn't done anything evil that would warrant her to undergo a cruel fate from someone else other than us. For this reason, I refuse to hand her over."

Quara's eyes turned almost bloodshot as she heard the reason.

Only they could do Zestria Domitian wrong but not her, the Scarlet Tyrant Hawk Abode that also had a legitimate reason to do cruel things to the Domitian Family people?

However, knowing when to quit, her clenched hands released as she calmed herself down using extreme willpower.

For one, she understood that she was at an extreme disadvantage with her cultivation sealed. Since the trade failed, it was important to bring this resource back safely.

"However, the resource you presented, the Dawn Shore Ember Grass, still interests me. Do you accept any other resources as potential trade?"

Hearing the Emperor of Death's words, Quara's heart somewhat relaxed before she shook her head.

"Unfortunately, I have to decline your eminence's suggestion, for I only need Zestria Domitian."

"Oh well..." Davis's expression became disappointed he shook his head before his sapphire eyes shone with a strange light, "Seems like I can only..."

Davis raised his hand towards Quara, causing her heart that calmed to skip a beat.

"... give up."

"...!"

Quara felt shook before she understood the words the Emperor of Death uttered. Unknowingly, she gulped and moved two steps back in retreat even before she heard the answer, which caused everyone around her to smile.

"Please be seated." Davis chuckled, "You're my guest at the moment. As long as you behave appropriately, no harm will befall you."

Quara trembled as she forced a smile. It was one thing for the Emperor of Death to look down on her, but why were the others also looking at her as if they were superior. If she had a choice, she would've outright killed them, but knowing about the consequences as she looked at the two enslaved Dragon Queen, she obediently sat down.

On the other hand, Zestria Domitian still looked dumbfounded, appearing to be in disbelief over the Emperor of Death's decision.

"Zestria, do we have to remind you to clean up the mess you made and return to serve us again?"

Isabella's indifferent voice echoed, causing Zestria Domitian to flinch and answer.

"No!"

She instantly went on to clean the surface of the broken plate and ruined dishes before she began serving them again. The atmosphere also returned to the ambiance of a banquet as the people kept enjoying the unrelinquishable dragon meat whilst still having an eye on the changes, especially in the northern and southern directions of the banquet hall.

"Davis, don't worry."

At this moment, Shirley's soul transmission fell on Davis's mind.

"I have the resources to make Sophie and Niera reach greater heights."

"I know." He turned to look towards her, "However, that unique heavenly treasure allows Sophie to narrow her focus to one path rather than a broader path that may confuse her in the long run."

"True."

Shirley nodded before another voice echoed in his mind.

"It's fine, Davis." Sophie smiled at him, "I don't want to be the recipient of such a resource traded through the life of a person who hadn't committed evil acts. Besides, according to your estimates for me, it would take me half a decade or so for my body to be able to withstand such a resource."

Davis couldn't help but return her smile with a heartened expression.

Even with darkness shading her soul, Sophie still hadn't changed. She was opposed to injustice as far as he could tell, making him feel heartened.

"More than anything, such a beauty fell to your knees and promised herself to you."

Sophie leaned over Natalya and Shirley before she reached out her hand to hit his chest playfully.

"Aren't you a lucky pervert?"

Davis could only dryly laugh as he looked away when he suddenly caught sight of an Iesha who looked at him with strange, wide eyes, as though she was impressed with his actions. He didn't move his gaze away but matched his gaze for an unknown while before she moved her gaze away and feasted on the magical beast meat.

Yes, spirits do eat, but it was not necessary as they could sustain themselves. Besides, the Aqua Flood Dragon was beneficial to Natalya, Iesha, and the Falling Snow Sect members, causing them to be more inclined towards Water Laws and their branches like Ice Laws.

Still, the people watching Davis and his women couldn't understand since they seemed to talk through soul transmissions amongst themselves.

Were the women complaining to him that he didn't get the resource, or did he make them fall for him more?

They couldn't understand.

But to Davis, who still kept looking at Iesha, he suddenly found her glance at him through the corner of her eyes before she looked away quickly. Her cheeks blushed slightly, appearing more visible than any blush he had seen as her skin was pale white like a snow fairy, more than Nadia's.

'I'm going to make a move on her after this...'

Davis needed no more clues as he decided.

After all the interactions he had with Iesha, he finally made up his mind to love a spirit, which he hadn't thought was possible, not even a single day before he met her. But now, he felt he was fine with allowing a spirit whom he didn't know much about to enter his life.

"Emperor of Death. I've wanted to ask for a while already, so can I know who this ice spirit is...? I've only heard of the Nethersnow Spirit of the Falling Snow Sect and Towering Ice Spirit of the Jade Lotus Valley."

Everlight suddenly spoke as she garnered the attention of the crowd, causing Davis to come out of his reverie before he simply delivered.

"Her name is Iesha. A spirit called the Frigid World Spirit from the Sealed Lands of the Spirits."

"What!?"

Both Everlight and Quara became dumbfounded before the former spoke.

"How...? To the north of my Magical Beast Sanctuary, the world barrier put up by the spirits is still present. It is the weakest space in their barrier, and yet, I received no word of spirit managing to slip past through the barrier nor the defenses..."

Everlight looked agitated and pale, while Quara also clenched her teeth as she stood up, looking about to leave.

"Useless Everlight, can't even defend your own Territory. Now the spirits who hadn't shown up for millenniums might be upon us anytime soon!"

"Don't be so frightened."

Davis abruptly raised his voice, causing them to become stiff.

"I slipped through the barrier the spirits put up and brought her back here because of a few reasons."

"...!?"

Everlight and Quara appeared shocked as their brows twitched.

Slipped through...?

Was that even possible? But the person was the mysterious Emperor of Death. They couldn't really tell if it was possible for him or not.

However, Everlight's eyes shone with determination as she realized the implications if this were true.

"Since we cannot become your subordinates nor form an alliance on equal grounds due to the disparity in our powers, how about we form a loose alliance that concentrates on helping each other when in crisis?"

Davis raised his brows at Everlight's sudden proposition.

"Do you think I can be in a crisis?"

"Certainly not, your eminence." Everlight gracefully shook her head,  "However, the people beside you. They certainly need it."

"Oh...." Davis smirked, "Tell me more."
