Chapter 1529 - Being Coveted
*Crack!~*
The brownish earth domain collapsed, becoming unable to sustain its presence after its conjurer stood dumbfounded without daring to do anything. His eyes only appeared to be staring at the silhouette of the proud swan above.
Sophie had her hands spread out while her domain covered the battle platform and her opponent, Gong Kim-Jin. She exuded a proud and imposing aura as her domain full of blazing armaments shattered his one kilometer radius Impeccable Domain and checkmated him.
Excluding Davis and his women, everyone in the Grand Wedding Hall almost had their eyes pop out as they saw the magnificent crimson domain that they had never seen in their lives, probably not even once except the Ninth Stage Powerhouses who had gone to the Large-Sized Territories to view the magnificence of their geniuses.
Even then...
"This... is a Perfect Domain!?"
Gong Kim-Il stood up as he screamed atop of his lungs in incredulity when he recognized the size and the sheer prowess of it. Beside him, Ancestor Gong Hyun-Ki also had a similar look of disbelief. The other Ninth Stage Powerhouses also possessed similar expressions on their faces, appearing like they couldn’t believe what they saw as they slowly stood up.
There was an unabated world of silence except for the blazing sounds of the thousands of armaments in Sophie’s three and a half kilometer domain, threatening to strike her opponent in an instant.
"Well, are you going to surrender, or should I attack? Although, I can’t guarantee if you will survive my perfect domain’s onslaught."
Gong Kim-Jin came out of his reverie upon hearing her voice and s.u.c.k.e.d in a deep breath of cold air, but the air inside was searingly hot, almost making him cough.
"I admit defeat..."
He went on his knees, giving rest to his broken kneecaps while he stared at the ground.
Win or lose? It didn’t matter to him at the moment, not when the opponent was so overwhelmingly powerful like this that he almost doubted if he was facing a Large-Sized Territories’ genius top disciple.
"Good!~"
Sophie flicked her sleeves, and her Perfect Domain disappeared as the blazing armaments faded away. This time, she didn’t stay but instantly flew back to Davis as if wanting to feel safe from the scrutiny or possible attacks.
*Woah!~~~*
The crowd jumped up from their seats as their voices went abuzz.
"She has a Perfect Domain!?"
"Perfect Domain!!? Heck! What’s that?"
"Dammit! Go ask someone else! You have no idea what you chanced upon in this nowhere!"
People began to bicker or convey their knowledge to the others while the whole Grand Wedding Hall instantly became abuzz in discussions. Many still glanced at Sophie as they listened. The more they heard about the legend of the Perfect Domain, the more they became awed and felt desiring of her.
Just recently they heard that a top disciple in the Burning Phoenix Ridge had achieved that kind of prowess which made her become a part of grand and sensational news that echoed throughout the Fifty-Two Territories, but what of this woman called Sophie?
"Sophie Alstreim, you tell us if you’re willing to choose one of the four of us. Who would dare to touch the Four Great Dragon Families? Your protection, well-being, and cultivation is nothing but guaranteed and smooth sailing!~"
At this moment, Natalya had already given her space for Sophie to be seated beside Davis. When Sophie heard their demand that sounded like a request, she shook her head.
"I belong where my beloved belongs."
Thorus Zlatan’s expression froze while the others looked the same, including the guests, whose jaws dropped.
She was actually giving up such a proposition for a dude with many women!?
Sure, Davis Alstreim did seem to be an excellent groom for her but was she not aware that the Dragon Families had more of him but better within their ranks, even unmarried, making her capable of having that man all to herself with her current talent?
Thorus Zlatan raised his hand to stop other Dragon Family Powerhouses from lashing out. Instead, he answered.
"Don’t worry. That brat is also coming with one of us after our Dragon Queen Isabella returns with us. You just have to choose one of us."
"In that case, there is still time. I’ll choose whichever power Dragon Queen Isabella chooses, and my beloved follows." Sophie innocently smiled and grabbed Davis’s hand, revealing that she was deeply in love with him.
Ancestor Dian Alstreim looked extremely angered as if he was going to release steam from his head while witnessing Sophie’s disloyalty to the Alstreim Family but couldn’t do anything about it in the presence of the Four Great Dragon Families. But, inwardly, he was laughing like hell.
On the other hand, Davis looked at the four Dragon Families with a cold stare.
He was about to give them a harsh beatdown in words even if it led to a real beatdown, but looking at Sophie diplomatically dealing with these overbearing powerhouses, he became impressed at her courage.
Nonetheless, looking at these Dragon Families acting as if they already had the Dragon Queen in the bag, he finally understood their thought process. Looks like they really thought everything was smoothly meshing according to their plans that they chose to wait for her. They did investigate, but if he gave them false information through that spy he enslaved and more of them, then they were going to believe that it was okay for them to be a bit patient.
Still, he was getting extremely annoyed by these Dragon Families constantly targeting his women. There was a limit to which he could endure, and after that, it didn’t matter to him if it was life or death.
"If any one of you wants to target Sophie or my other women, then you have to go through my dead body first."
He gave a sound warning that made Thorus Zlatan raise his brows in half-amus.e.m.e.nt and half-surprise.
"Why does it sound like a threat?" He laughingly asked as he looked around, garnering laughter from the guests.
"Because it’s a threat."
"Aha!" Thorus Zlatan looked deeply amused, "Brat, being careless and daring is a wonderful part of being youthful, but don’t let it get yourself killed. Having Dragon Queen Isabella at your back doesn’t mean you can do as you please."
*Ahaha!~*
Davis merely shook his head at the jeering crowd. He had already given the warning. It was their choice to heed it or not.
Ancestor Dian Alstreim inwardly scoffed as he heard them speak.
Davis was careless and daring?
He might accept the second comment, but this brat was the most cautious youngster he had ever seen in his life!
