Chapter 1239 - Mentoring
"What do you mean...?" Ancestor Dian Alstreim couldn’t help but ask in doubt.
"Oh, it’s nothing..." Davis brushed it off, "We first have to see if those two powerhouses with Viridian Lightning Fox blood would join us before we think about that."
"I see..." Ancestor Dian Alstreim didn’t seem to ponder much on his words, but in truth, he remained doubtful of the words that Davis had uttered.
Someone, a powerhouse who would give their life for the Alstreim Family?
How can such a person exist outside? He had no idea unless it was an offshoot that survived in the other Territories but remembered its root and would like to somehow help.
"Here... I have no use for this..." Ancestor Tirea Snow suddenly reached out her hand as she held a vial.
Davis’s eyes narrowed.
’So they hadn’t used it!?’ He couldn’t help but inwardly shout in astonishment.
A month ago was around the time he left for the Hundred Devil Thunder Archipelago, and that was also the time he felt that they used the aphrodisiac he had given to do the deed. However, looking at the vial in Ancestor Tirea Snow’s hand, he could tell that it was the aphrodisiac he had given. It was full, and not a drop of it had been used.
Although he could see they hadn’t used it, he felt that it also acted as a catalyst to bring them together.
Nevertheless, since Ancestor Tirea Snow didn’t use it, did that mean that she chose to ignore Tanya Frostblight’s emergency distress call when the latter was in deep trouble of being kidnapped back then? Well, considering that she and Dian Alstreim had been doing it, cementing their relationship, he could understand that she would ignore the distress call.
What could be more important than their reunion when they wholly thought of each other?
But that wasn’t the point. If he wasn’t accidentally present at that scene, Tanya Frostblight might have been kidnapped and done untold things that didn’t sit well with him, especially when she was Natalya’s friend. He couldn’t just let it slip past his conscience that he at least needed a word of acknowledgment from her.
"Why didn’t you respond when Tanya Frostblight released a distress talisman?"
Ancestor Tirea Snow’s eyes lit up before it narrowed as she amicably smiled, "So it was you who saved her. I was wondering why she was muttering that her friend’s husband was so strong in her room, and now I realize. You have my gratitude again."
"I see," Davis noticed that Ancestor Tirea Snow probably eavesdropped on Tanya Frostblight to find out who saved her. Nevertheless, he said, "But you still haven’t answered my question."
"It wasn’t that I didn’t respond." Ancestor Tirea Snow shook her head, "Instead, it was that I didn’t get any distress calls."
"What do you mean?"
Ancestor Tirea Snow went a bit silent. Her cheeks took on a shade of red as her lips moved.
"At this point, it’s extremely shameful for me to say this, but it was indeed as you said before. I was planning on... committing suicide as I couldn’t see why I should live after betraying my love for so many years."
"I also wanted to get revenge on my Falling Snow Sect for making me miserable, but I didn’t have the heart to do so. That’s why just as you said, I left it to the Falling Snow Sect’s fate. To that extent, I destroyed every distress talisman I had with me so I wouldn’t change my mind when they all encounter danger. Not only Tanya’s distress talisman, but I would respond to none."
"But now that I’m alive thanks to you and if Tanya had been kidnapped and Elder Rain dead, I really would’ve regretted making that decision in the past. That’s why I am also deeply indebted to you."
He suddenly understood.
"Well, I’m glad that you understand, but I’m not of the mind of having children for now."
"What!?" Ancestor Dian Alstreim narrowed his eyes, "You can’t be like this... You have to leave a pr-"
"A progeny?" Davis narrowed his eyes, "Excuse me, but you two can birth a prodigious progeny by yourselves. There’s no need for a rival to be born now."
"You...!" Ancestor Dian Alstreim became stumped while Ancestor Tirea Snow’s body shivered.
However, before they can even say anything, Davis disappeared in front of them again, leaving Ancestor Dian Alstreim stumped as he held his fists raised.
"That brat... If I don’t teach him a lesson now, I won’t ever get a chance again..."
Ancestor Tirea Snow blinked before she couldn’t help but giggle, "So you’re aware that he would surpass you eventually..."
"That’s inevitable... The young would surpass the old, not to mention that he knows what to do to surpass himself each time. At this moment, his main body might as well be cultivating with fervor and passion unlike us."
"So I’m marrying an old man?" Ancestor Tirea Snow couldn’t help but smile.
"Who’re you kidding? We’re both old enough..." Ancestor Dian Alstreim laughed as he saw the vial she held in her hands, a strange light flashing in his eyes, "Perhaps, we must need its help?"
Ancestor Tirea Snow pursed her lips in exasperation, "No, I will use this unscrupulous thing as a keepsake as something that made us come together in this life."
"What!?" Ancestor Dian Alstreim look like he had received the shock of his life.
Ancestor Tirea Snow did not notice the disappointment on his face and instead shyly uttered, "I am surprised that I would hold one of these things in my hand... but it’s just that significant in our life."
Ancestor Dian Alstreim looked as if he was going to cry but had no tears to shed. Something like this was hard to come by, and with his prestige, it would be extremely shameful to obtain one by himself from other major powers.
Nevertheless, an aphrodisiac as a keepsake? There were other things to hold on to, no?
’Mhm... I must get that brat to make another one sometime later...’ Ancestor Dian Alstreim’s thoughts descended into debauchery as he couldn’t help but inwardly lampoon!
However, his expression froze as he saw a figure standing with an awkward smile on its face.
"You brat! You still haven’t disappeared yet!?" His expression exploded into one of anger.
"Hehe... I forgot one other thing..."
"What now...!?"
Davis looked at Ancestor Dian Alstreim’s expression that was about to explode again before he turned to look at Ancestor Tirea Snow, whose expression had a question mark as to why he looked as if was hesitating to ask something.
"Do you really feel grateful to me?" He asked after a silent pause.
"Of course..." Ancestor Tirea Snow nodded her head without a shred of hesitation.
"Then, can you help me mentor my second wife Natalya in the Laws of Ice and Yin?"
