Davis quickly approached Iesha's assigned quarters without wasting time and knocked on her door. The door quickly opened within the first few seconds before he blinked, looking at Natalya raise her brows at him multiple times as if exactly knowing what he was here for.
Her mischievous expression caused him to scratch his head in embarrassment.
"You got me..."
"I'll go out."
Natalya spoke with a teasing smile on her face before she walked past him. However, Davis pulled her inside and closed the door.
"You can be our witness..."
Natalya blinked before she nodded. She was curious as well, wondering how he would court a spirit.
They passed through a few doors by slowly walking hand-in-hand before they arrived at the bedroom where Natalya had been cultivating with Iesha.
Iesha sat on the edge of the bed, instantly standing up once she saw them enter.
"You're here..."
Her tone sounded eager, making Natalya think that it was going to be easy. After all, she saw herself in her, the silhouette of a woman who didn't dare to voice out her feelings, afraid that she would end up being hurt.
Of course, she could no longer take it and seduced him in the past, but it made her wonder if it would be any different for Iesha if Davis ignored her.
Davis stared at Iesha and her icy-blue lips. Her long snowy silverish hair laden with a bit of icy blue strands fell to her waist, appearing to be capable of mesmerizing, while the blue robe that she wore also made her appear attractive.
"Iesha, how are you faring? Is the accommodation good?"
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"Good, everything here is good." Iesha hurriedly answered, "Some people don't talk to me, but those who do treat me well."
"Of course." Davis gestured with a smile, "I said I will give you a safe space to live, so how can my women bear to let me down?"
As he spoke, he reached out his other hand and caressed Natalya's head, causing the latter to appear like a cat as she pursed her lips.
"We should thank Natalya, no?"
Iesha instantly clasped her hands towards Natalya.
"I, the prin-" Iesha stuck for a moment before she shook her head, "I am grateful for your hospitality from the bottom of my heart, Natalya."
"What are you saying? Being with you is like cultivating with half the effort. My energy flows smoothly than ever with every circulation up to a faster limit, so I should be the one thanking you."
Natalya deeply smiled, but then her expression fell, "Wait, you actually have a heart?"
"How rude~" Iesha pouted, "Every spirit has a heart and the organs of a human. However, we have two times the number of meridians you humans possess, which makes us spirits superior at the same level. However, I was proven wrong when I saw Davis battle my father to save me and defeat him even while being four levels lower. I confirmed this when Natalya allowed me to check her meridians, from which I garnered that the meridians we spirits possess are smaller."
"Then what's the use of having smaller meridians?" Natalya frowned.
"I think this is it..."
Iesha joined her hands as if he was praying, but then her hands passed through each other as if she was a ghost, causing Natalya's eyes to widen in shock, while Davis looked fairly astonished because he already knew but still couldn't help but feel startled.
"Our thin flesh, bones, and meridians allow us to phase through most objects, especially ourselves."
Iesha smiled as she looked joyful at their surprised faces.
"But unlike humans, we don't have the ability to conjure a soul body until we gain immortality, so we're even. Furthermore, when I sacrifice my spirit essence, my appearance will change as my beautiful crown will grow more prominent while my silvery hair will also get longer. This is just the change in my appearance, but in truth, it would allow me to have more control over my energy, making my prowess grow one level higher."
"Woah~" Natalya couldn't help but feel impressed while Davis raised his brows.
"Couldn't your father have used that when I fought him?"
Iesha shook her head, "Such increase in power demands sacrificing forty percent of spirit essence, which can cause a spirit to enter a vegetative state for a long time at best or cause death at the worst. However, not all spirits are able to use this technique as only pure-blooded spirits who have reached the Spirit Ancestor Stage can use it. This is why I also said that you can't defeat my father, but after you convinced my father with your strength, he no longer fought a battle to the death and agreed that he made a mistake."
Iesha lowered her head as she looked away.
Her sorrowful look instantly garnered the sympathy of Davis and Natalya, especially Davis, as he was the one who caused father and daughter to misunderstand each other. After all, Iesha proved that she was talented by reaching the Spirit Ancestor Stage a day after coming here, which meant she would've absolutely reached the Spirit Ancestor Stage after absorbing the Frigid Yin Spirit Pool, causing her father to feel happy and reward her with more cultivation resources instead of sending her off.
Both father and daughter were clear on their duties as emperor and princess, but he caused her to be exiled and wronged. What's more, he accidentally molested her, which made him even more sympathetic and caring towards her.
He took a step forward, wanting to embrace her, but a gust of wind rushed past him before he saw Natalya interlock her hands with Iesha.
"All is fine. I will take care of you."
'Oye, don't go stealing my girl...'
Davis's brows twitched, but considering he was slow with his thoughts, he felt that he deserved this, although he knew that Natalya was probably helping him in her own way.
"Thank you~"
Iesha nodded with a heartened smile on her face.
"When did get two close?"
Davis came closer as he stood beside them.
"Davis, you were too busy. Iesha and I were cultivating together. Look~"
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmIcy undulations emerged from Natalya in three different directions. Her left hand radiated a chill aura, indicating her High-Level Martial Master Stage Body Tempering Cultivation, while her right hand conjured an icy air that froze into an icy needle that appeared extremely sharp, capable of shattering a hundred meter tall King Grade Mountain.
It was clear her Essence Gathering Cultivation is at Peak-Level Law Dominion Stage while the soul force that appeared from her forehead and emanated a frozen atmosphere that appeared one with the world displayed that her Soul Forging Cultivation is at the Low-Level Elder Soul Stage.
"It was not me. Natalya was already talented."
Iesha wryly smiled.
"How can it be?" Natalya raised her brows, "Although I do admit that a will-less Low-Level Emperor Grade Yin Essence, hundreds of High-Level Ice and Yin Attributed Spirit Stone Vein Fragments, and a variety of other similar attributed resources helped me get to this point, how can I take away your contribution towards my cultivation, allowing me to perfect my Perfect Domains?"
"Very good, Natalya." Davis praised with excitement in his expression, understanding that Natalya had finished perfecting her two domains into five-kilometer domains.
"You're very close to the Law Sea Stage and gaining an Immeasurable Sea. Furthermore, we have the Frigid Yin Spirit Pool that helps you enter the Ninth Stage easily than any Peak-Level Vein Sources. Your path to the Ninth Stage is almost carved and set in stone!"
Natalya deeply smiled at Davis before she imperceptibly gestured with her eyes to not be insensitive.
"I have to thank Iesha for being magnanimous in providing me the Frigid Yin Spirit Pool."
She went ahead and embraced Iesha as she rubbed her cheeks on her face.
"Soft and refreshingly cool. I like Iesha very much~"
Iesha appeared to be taken aback before she enjoyed the gentle caresses of Natalya. She reached out her hand and patted Natalya as Davis did.
"Just use it as a reward for saving me."
Davis couldn't help but smile as he saw Natalya treating Iesha like a doll while Iesha also did the same.
Iesha did look like a frozen fairy doll, but still, he knew that Iesha was cold to the touch as she was a spirit, but she burned up when her blood boiled with emotions. However, he could understand why Natalya would like hugging Iesha as Natalya preferred yin and ice environments.
As a spirit, Iesha was a walking resource for Natalya. After all, spirits were originally Spirit Attributed Sources who evolved into spirits to gain essence, body, and soul, all three energies.
'Wait... is it possible that...'
Davis's expression suddenly became solemn. He thought for a moment before he inwardly spoke.
"Fallen Heaven. Give me a spirit pact technique of the highest grade below Immortal Grade."
