Ancestor Dian Alstreim remained completely dumbfounded.
The ones who didn't know, like Claire, Sophie, and Niera, were hearing about Evelynn's feats for the first time, about her sinister title and its origin from Isabella and Shirley. Everyone began to talk about what she did and how she killed millions of people.
Despite trembling, Evelynn bit her lips and nodded.
"I..."
"Excellent! So you're the person who killed the entire Poison Lord Villa! Ahahaha! I couldn't feel anymore happier and relieved now that I know this!"
Ancestor Dian Alstreim clenched his fists as his body shook. He had been afraid that the Hex Demoness would attack their power, but it seemed like that person belonged to them, to Davis.
No wonder the entire Poison Lord Villa got decimated. It was an act of revenge, purely fueled to avenge Davis, but even Davis had come back alive today, causing him to shed tears. Indeed, at this moment, Ancestor Dian Alstreim could no longer stop himself from shedding tears, although his face was filled with a deep smile that made everyone shaken as they realized.
Isabella, Shirley, Evelynn, and Nadia. It didn't matter if one of them is a magical beast and another one became a fey. The four of them were peak Ninth Stage Powerhouses who could shake the Fifty-Two Territories, and they were all Davis's women as of this moment.
And to Ancestor Dian Alstreim, who did Davis chose to side with? Him, his Alstreim Family, without abandoning it that he couldn't help but feel so moved that Davis announcing Nadia was his woman was so trivial to him in comparison.
"Davis, you two both have my blessings as the Ancestor... if you want it..."
"I certainly do need it, from everyone here..."
Davis smiled as he looked around.

After all, she saved all their lives that they couldn't even raise a word about it even though they might have some misgivings because of preconceived notions.
However, with time, Davis knew that their preconceived notions would disappear.
He walked ahead and wrapped his arms around Evelynn, taking her lips in front of everyone while her spider lances seemingly shook from the brunt of his forcefulness and passion. He then separated from her lips and kissed her forehead, right on her third eye that closed, causing Evelynn to feel immensely loved while the others understood that he truly did love them for who they were and not their external appearances.
Nevertheless, they wondered how Evelynn had become so beautiful during this time, but this transformation into becoming a fey explained her facial features appearing refined.
"Evelynn... so this is why you hesitated to call me mother..."
Evelynn couldn't help but smile awkwardly at Claire when the latter shook her head.
"Silly girl, I'd say that you were ruthless than me to massacre millions of people, but that's all. You obtained vengeance for my son, and that's more fulfilling and gratifying for me than those random and wicked lives lost. No one here is going to blame you, okay?"
At the same time, every one of them heavily nodded, causing Evelynn to feel as if though she was struck by lightning.
"Mother..."
Evelynn's body couldn't help but shudder before she wrapped her arms around Davis and began to shed tears over his shoulder, hiding her face from everyone. Davis was taken aback before he caressed her head, running his fingers through her purplish-green hair.
The feeling of redemption that Evelynn was experiencing was crystal clear to his heart. He was afraid that she would be unable to forgive herself, but it looks like his mother healed her before he could even try.
Everyone couldn't help but smile at this touching moment that it was a while before they all came out of their trance.
"Today is a joyous day." Claire looked around, having a deep and satisfied smile on her face, "None of you should go out and make trouble even if you're all seething with killing intent as I am. Do you all understand?"
Davis and the others all nodded their heads as if they were ducklings.
This ended their little reunion, and then came the... night.
Davis was chilling in his room, compiling all the information he had gathered. He was alone, wanting to gather his thoughts and see where he went wrong, but no matter how he thought, he arrived at the conclusion that it was impossible to have survived without abandoning his family.
Fortunately, for good or worse, Fallen Heaven decided to protect his soul from dissipating, and this was actually the third time it saved him on its own accord. First, when he transmigrated and took over his next life's body. Second, when it fooled Ellia's other incarnation. Third, when his soul was about to dissipate as his soul sea collapsed from the shock of sacrificing an enormous amount of soul essence.
Next, he looked into his cultivation and saw that there were no changes. It was the same as before. Even Shirley's primal yin essence seems to not have given him any kind of addition to the flames of the revolving core. In reality, considering that the entirety of her primal yin essence and its massive energy was used up as a source for that soul revival technique, it was normal that he didn't gain any tangible benefits as he did with Isabella.
However, he could intrinsically feel that he could comprehend and solidify the Fire Laws of the Phoenix once he tried meditating as though they were remnant memories, but the problem was that he didn't want to comprehend them since his flames were affixed to a more destructive Blazing Thunderlight Kirin.
Would mixing both flames give him compatibility issues later on?
Davis couldn't help but inwardly laugh at this thought.
Right now, he actually felt like sneaking out with Nadia to take over Soul Palace, but with his mother demanding that he not do anything today, he felt resting, at least for this day.
'Well, when I make a move, there's not going to be any rest for a while, so I better sleep and regain my-'
*Creak!~*
The door was suddenly pushed open as a black-robed figure entered the room.
Davis raised his brows as he saw the figure's fair countenance, making his heart skip a beat.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"So you really have decided that you don't want a marriage first...?"
"There's no use talking me out of it. I missed my chance before, and I am not foolish enough to lose it again. You're gonna have to swallow the words you uttered that day, darling~"
Her clothes fell while she stood there naked, coming prepared without wearing anything inside but hiding her assets with her arms as she appeared extremely sumptuous that Davis couldn't help but stand up and move towards her.
Outside, seven figures appeared, looking at each other with blank and shy expressions on their faces. While they noticed each other's presence, thinking of how to get past everyone to obtain Davis for tonight, Mo Mingzhi blatantly walked through the hall and entered the room as though she hadn't found any of them hidden!
Evelynn, Natalya, Isabella, Fiora, Sophie, Niera, and Shirley were all here, looking embarrassed and flabbergasted at the closed door.
Now, how could they dare to enter when Mo Mingzhi already seemed to have claimed Davis for tonight?
Everyone's expressions became complex, but noticing it, Shirley smiled as she spoke.
"Sisters, why don't we formally introduce ourselves in the hall?"
"Mhm, a women's gathering? Good idea." Sophie replied as her brows raised.
"I sure don't know you all quite accurately, but since Davis loves you, your characters are trustworthy enough to share my life with." Isabella deeply smiled.
"Thank you. I admire you, third sister. I want to become strong and prideful like you...!"
Niera's purple eyes glowed while Isabella couldn't help but feel joy at finding an admirer.
"I wish Nadia was here too, but... Hehehe~ Poor Mingzhi is gonna be left out..."
Fiora couldn't help but giggle like a playful girl while Natalya shook her head, still feeling sad that she missed the chance to enter and even feeling like she could enter to make Davis double happy but thought about Mo Mingzhi's first time and abandoned the thought.
"I want to hear more about Davis from your mouths." Evelynn spoke, "Tell me what made you all fall in love with him."
"Sure~" Natalya brightly replied along with the others.
As long as it was about Davis, she was interested. Then, forming into a group as they left, things were getting rather hot and sensual inside the room.
