Chapter 1439: Chapter 1438 Undercurrents?

Ancestor Dian Alstreim smiled as he saw Davis bow for the first time. He became deeply heartened as if he had achieved something great before he kept his calm.

"Then we'll get back to what we were talking about. Since we amassed three powerhouses, the Alstreim Family now unofficially has five powerhouses, excluding your magical beast mount. So all five of us, except Ezekiel Alstreim, who had just recently become a Law Rune Stage Powerhouse, have a chance to break through to the next level. At least, I'm convinced that both Tirea and I are at the peak of the Low-Level, just missing a certain something..."

Ancestor Dian Alstreim smiled at the end, making Davis aware that he was talking about the gift that could potentially make Ancestor Tirea Snow step into the Mid-Level Law Rune Stage.

Although consuming Peak-Level Spirit Stone Vein Sources remained banned, who would know unless someone spread the information to the world? Fortunately, Elise Alstreim and the ones in the know already swore not to leak the information. They wouldn't even dare to tell it to Ezekiel Alstreim because of the oath and their new life that they didn't want to mess up, much less to outsiders.

Nevertheless, Davis understood that finding a new Peak-Level Spirit Stone Vein Source means finding a lucky chance. No one would ever know that you found one, much less consumed one. The wicked path even openly consumed them and displayed the middle finger to the righteous path, then robbing them the next day of a similar resource.

"Speaking of which, can I know how many suspicious individuals are targeting me in the Grand Alstreim City?" Davis suddenly asked after remembering about the wicked path.

"Ah yes, after your fame shot through the skies when you displayed your strength while battling Raeburn Zlatan, there's an influx of experts gathering, some openly demanding that you fight them while some others secretly roam around, trying to find an entrance within the impeccable fortress of a guest palace that we built. There are not only some righteous path youngsters but also some wicked path individuals. The latter are more likely to attempt to kill you if they ever see you outside."

"Nevertheless, I had the Grand Elders deal with all of these suspicious people and executed them, so much that it wouldn't be strange if some random wicked path people invaded us for being overbearing."

Ancestor Dian Alstreim wryly smiled while Davis nodded.

Davis had all the floors locked except the last two floors, and that was where Nadia kept a watch, occasionally erupting with her aura to scare any people who thought they were sneaky enough to enter. Before they could even get near the entrance, they were scared off like a scaredy-cat.

He was too busy to bother about these people, and he didn't care if they were in the righteous path or the wicked path. He was disinclined to waste his time dealing with every single one of them when the Alstreim Family would help him take care of it.

If he did take care of them with his fists, his name would become more famous, which would, in turn, increase his reputation, proportionally increasing his headaches, but now it would just be the opposite.

People would start to think that this whole point of an Alchemist being terrifyingly powerful was a ruse that the Alstreim Family made up if he denied any challenges. But, of course, they never would've believed it in the first place if Dragon Queen Isabella's name wasn't stuck onto him for some credibility.

And for the same reason, he understood that they did not bring any prominent experts in the wicked path, perhaps a bit afraid of offending the Dragon Families who were said to be behind Dragon Queen Isabella. So right now, their level of targeting was nothing more than at the level of probing.

"Thank you, Ancestor. I apologize for changing the topic, but that's a matter settled, so what were you getting at?"

"I was getting at our prowess." Ancestor Dian Alstreim didn't seem to mind the interruption as he smiled satisfactorily, "We're now as strong as the Thousand Pill Palace on the surface, although I muse that they have more connections with individual powerhouses than us. So, once Tirea or I have a breakthrough, which should be possible in a few decades or less, we'll become the strongest in the Nine Western Territories. At that time, no one in the nine Territories will be able to stop us while we expand our influence together."

Ancestor Dian Alstreim turned to look at his beautiful white-haired woman, "Isn't that right, Tirea?"

"Yes, the Falling Snow Sect would officially be allying with the Alstreim Family when our wedding date is announced to the world."

Ancestor Tirea Snow smiled with a red hue on her face.

"Yes, what we two Ancestors are saying is that we're sufficiently powerful to keep ourselves alive with three more powerhouses, so I want you to know that you can rest assured as you return to the Forsaken Phoenix Realm."

"I understand..." Davis smiled, "When I come back, we'll be almost invincible for sure..."

"Oh? That's a pleasant surprise to hear..." Ancestor Dian Alstreim shook his head, "But, it can be for the second time. Just make sure you attend our wedding that would be dated within a year at max."

"Well, I did not mean-"

Davis abruptly shut up as he turned to look back at the entrance.

Three people entered with smiles. They wore white robes filled with dark-green veined patterns of lightning.

"Perfect timing..." Ancestor Dian Alstreim smiled as he looked at the arrival of the Silverwinds.

"Hehe... Ancestor Dian, you have some 'good' timing as well..."

Ancestor Dian Alstreim chuckled.

"Excuse my rudeness if I have offended by disturbing..."

"Oh, it's nothing..."

Mival Silverwind shook his head, causing Ancestor Dian Alstreim to smile in relief. However, he still felt bad to have disturbed the Silverwinds during their intimate time. It wasn't like he had seen anything but with Mival Silverwind sending a message transmission that he would come to see him within a few minutes from within the palace; he understood and promptly left while Tirea Snow looked quite oblivious, even now.

Nevertheless, he felt strange.

Everyone suddenly had a woman they cared about? After all, all the male Ninth Stage Powerhouses of the Alstreim Family, or allied, were now occupied with their woman or women, even himself!

Could it be the fall of the Alstreim Family would be because of a woman? There was a saying that an empire-toppling beauty would be a cause for the fall of an empire, mostly because she inevitably attracts many powerful preys to conquer her. He hoped that it wasn't anything like he imagined in the case of his Alstreim Family.

"How was your time here so far?" Ancestor Dian Alstreim wryly smiled before he couldn't help but ask as the host.

"Oh, so far, so good. I'm enjoying life more than I expected. You all didn't come to disturb me one bit and even sent so many delicacies that I feel sorry for not being able to reciprocate." Mival Silverwind laughed as he turned to look at Davis.

"Young hero who saved the damsel in distress, I'm glad to see that you have recovered. That's some miraculous ability you have there to heal those terrifying injuries..." His eyes twitched.

"It was all thanks to that viridian fruit giving me insights along with that holy stone. Can I have someone investigate that viridian fruit's true effects when made into a pill for me?"

Davis pursed his lips and requested as he humbly smiled.

"Hehe, I'm rather disappointed to say that I have already checked long ago and returned with empty results. We only had Zanna's bloodline memories as a lead, so like her, some other powers might know but are secretive of that fruit's existence. You know how heaven-defying the fruit is... after all, it can actually allow a person to reincarnate as long they find the fruit tree's branch within their lifetime."

Mival Silverwind cast a glance at Alia Silverwind, who possessed a gentle smile on her face. He had actually made love with three different women who were comprised of the same soul in his lifetime. Of course, they were all Alia in different faces. Even he found it mind-boggling of the fruit's effect, and when made into an actual pill, he felt that the fruit should be even more miraculous.

However, he didn't dare investigate further for fear of repercussions, in other words, being hunted down for possessing a heavenly resource like the viridian fruit.

"Indeed..."

Davis sighed, feeling a bit disappointed before that feeling disappeared because, considering the rarity and the miraculous effect of the viridian fruit, it is indeed something that would not be publically known but kept within the confines of some power as a secret.

"Wait, you two are talking about that viridian fruit on Davis's garden room...?

On the other hand, Ancestor Dian Alstreim and Ancestor Tirea Snow knew that viridian fruit they mentioned because it was placed on a display on Davis's garden room, but was that truly what they were talking about? Did it possess such an effect?

"Oh, he finally took it. I thought he was going to leave just it just like that..." Mival Silverwind chuckled while Davis nodded.

Both Ancestors were taken aback deeply. They had only focused on the growing tree with the new-born spirit and wasn't concerned over that strange viridian fruit because Davis hadn't said anything about it yet, but then, if the fruit itself was placed beside, there's a valid chance that the tree itself would bore the same fruits!!!

"Unfortunately, the tree that bore the fruit has already withered. There is no need for us to concentrate on it anymore unless we can grow the tree by using the fruit's seed, at least if it had one in the first place." Mival Silverwind sadly uttered as if it were unfortunate, "However, I muse that growing it is impossible unless we find a suitable environment for it. The last place just won't do because, by the time it grows, I muse that we'll all be dead even if we did somehow manage to grow one in that island..."

'That brat is already growing that tree, damn it...!'

Ancestor Dian Alstreim felt like screaming as he witnessed Davis imperceptibly smirk by the side. Honestly, he didn't know how many things he did not know about Davis, but he didn't say anything at the moment. Ancestor Tirea Snow also didn't say anything as she understood the implications.

However, the more outstanding Davis was, the more fortunate they felt because, in the end, they felt like he belonged to their power!
