Chapter 1111 Dragon Queen“s Anger
Everyone looked at the three new intruders as the purple-haired woman"s voice rang out.
... Death wish?
The Alstreim Family certainly didn"t have that, or so Ancestor Dian Alstreim thought as he looked at them. He put aside Davis"s threatening words for now.
Natalya disembarked from Nadia and flew towards Davis. Davis caught Natalya and consoled her before standing in front of her, his gaze directed at Princess Isabella as a strange light flashed in his eyes.
Princess Isabella seemed to make no moves but kept her eyes narrowed as she cast a look at Davis. Her expression fell before she bellowed.
"How dare you!?"
The sky almost changed colors as invisible pressure descended on the place, making all of them widen their eyes in astonishment.
"Dragon Queen..." Patriarch Eldric Alstreim muttered as he felt a creeping chill on his back.
The pure pressure from her Eighth Stage Body Tempering Cultivation that descended on him made him think that he would be able to do nothing against this female warrior. He, a High-Level Law Sea Stage Expert, found it difficult to maintain his head high.
Ancestor Dian Alstreim also frowned on feeling the pressure, but he became shocked along with Patriarch Eldric Alstreim.
Mid-Level Martial Sage Stage!?
Didn"t the Dragon Queen just enter the Martial Sage Stage!?
How can it be like this!?
It hadn"t been even a year, and yet she was already at the mid-level!? Judging with their senses, they felt that her foundation was not unstable at all! In fact, her foundation seemed to be stable as a calm volcano, seething to explode with domineering power with a wave of her hand!
With the Dragon Queen"s intervention, they could undoubtedly tell that things have taken a change for the worst!
Now, recruiting Davis to their side would no longer be as easy as before!
"Dragon Queen, it"s not like what you are thinking..." Patriarch Eldric Alstreim expressed, "Alchemist Davis is-"
"Oh," Princess Isabella coldly chuckled, "Do you really think that I would not notice what you"re all doing just because I was in seclusion?"
"No, it really isn"t what you think, Dragon Queen." Ancestor Dian Alstreim was unyielding, "We are not s.n.a.t.c.hing Alchemist Davis from you, but it is instead that he truly belongs to us in the first place since he has the blood of our Alstreim Family."
"Do you think I don"t know that?" Princess Isabella coldly spat out, causing them to be a little astonished.
"Davis, Claire, and Logan... I know they are all one family, and I gave my word that I would protect them under my wing as long as they swore loyalty to me. But-"
"No, Young Mistress! It isn"t like that!" Davis"s expression changed as he vehemently shook his head.
Princess Isabella shot a disheartened gaze at Davis.
"Your wife Natalya had told me everything when I threatened that I would kill you. You got a caring wife, but you dared to abandon her in the Purple Guest Palace?"
"You are the safest place I could think of..." Davis instantly replied.
Princess Isabella"s expression froze before she cold spat out her words.
"Absurd!"
She waved her hand and pointed at Ancestor Dian Alstreim, "Then what is this you"re doing!? Changing sides!?"
"If this isn"t betrayal, then what is this!?"
"This is..." Davis hesitated as he lowered his head.
Princess Isabella"s hands trembled as she clenched her fists and shot an angered look at Ancestor Dian Alstreim. She turned her body towards him and muttered, "Since you dared to take him away from me, you must learn the consequences..."
Her lips moved, and the runes that she had condensed on her body lit up with a golden light! A strange golden mark that said "Earth Dragon" in a cryptic language lit up on her forehead, but it disappeared as it quickly came!
"Martial Domain!"
*Aooo!~*
The low sound of the earth dragon roaring resounded through the atmosphere!
Earthen light flashed before it turned golden as it spread to the surroundings in an instant, abruptly encasing everyone present in it!
Everyone"s expression changed as they felt an immense weight on their shoulders. It was as if hundreds of mountains weighed on them, trying to make them kneel!
Patriarch Eldric Alstreim unleashed his Law Sea Stage essence energy, but his legs started to tremble as he found himself unable to keep standing! His pupils shook as his expression turned ugly.
The Dragon Queen was too strong for him despite him being one level higher than her!
Was he going to be made to kneel again!?
"Stop!"
Ancestor Dian Alstreim"s eyes were wide as a crescent moon as he bellowed. He could tell that most of the pressure was directed at him and Patriarch Eldric Alstreim, making him barely hold on while the others could be said to be facing the same fate. He gritted his teeth and saw that the martial domain"s pressure didn"t descend on Tia Alstreim and Lia Alstreim.
He instantly found a few clues and activated his Heart Intent. The Dragon Queen rushed towards him with her fist clenched, ready to unleash it upon him.
"No killing intent?" Despite how the Dragon Queen looked, as cold as ice, it seemed that she had no killing intent against him or anyone in this place. It made sense since if this kind of pressure fell on those two, it would undoubtedly make them explode.
He instantly switched to defense and waved his hand!
The surrounding s.p.a.ce shook, and his Law Rune Stage essence energy surged out like a tide before it turned into a hundred-meter wall of crimson flames that formed a barrier to block her attack.
Princess Isabella instantly closed the little distance and unleashed the punch she was holding back upon coming in contact with the crimson flames!
*Boom!~*
Heaven and earth twisted, and s.p.a.ce shook! The crimson flames were instantly blown away into nothing, like a candle flame that had been blown by a human.
"What!?"
Ancestor Dian Alstreim"s pupils shrunk as he couldn"t help but blurt out, "Supreme Domain!?"
The pure wall of crimson flames was made from sixty percent of his power that he could bring out at a time was blown away like it was nothing!
What he blurted out was nothing but the grade of the domain.
Like the grades of manifestations in the Law Manifestation Stage, the Law Dominion Stage also possessed differentiating grades for a domain a cultivator could conjure.
Flawed Domain!
Mediocre Domain!
Impeccable Domain!
Supreme Domain!
Similarly, the Martial Sage Stage that allows Body Tempering Cultivators to invoke a domain also possessed the same grades as the Law Dominion Stage.
One of the few differences was that the domain summoned by a Body Tempering Cultivator would appear more solid and possess incredible pressure that weighed like the mountains, preventing people from moving within the domain regardless of the law that they had trained in!
And since the Dragon Queen seemed to train in Earth Laws, the pressure itself seemed to have been multiplied by manifold, even making Ancestor Dian Alstreim vaguely feel threatened just by the pressure itself.
But with this single attack of hers, he knew that she could match his complete prowess if she broke through one more level, entering High-Level Martial Sage Stage Cultivation!
"What a monster...!" He couldn"t help but feel incredibly solemn at the thought of offending her.
To compare her with another Body Tempering Cultivator, even the Towering Cloud Hall"s Ancestor Xanbas Goldsky had only congealed an Impeccable Domain, which is a far cry from a Supreme Domain that the Dragon Queen had displayed.
Perhaps, in a few more years, she could flatten the Alstreim Family by herself?
What"s more, the potential she displayed was terrifying, not any lesser than Davis! It could only be said to be greater as he saw her prowess at the Eighth Stage!
Crossing a stage to fight Ninth Stage Powerhouses from High-Level Eighth Stage wasn"t something he had even heard before!
"You dare to block my attack!?" The Dragon Queen stopped as she trembled. She seemed to be angered as she ragingly pointed at him, "Give me back my subordinates. Otherwise, I will guarantee that tens of Law Rune Stage and Marital Overlord Stage Powerhouses would descend on the Alstreim Family to demand justice for me!"
It could be seen that she was completely p.i.s.sed off!
Ancestor Dian Alstreim"s expression changed.
What kind of number was that!? Tens of Ninth Stage Powerhouses!? Exactly where did she come from!? What kind of mysterious power was her background!?
To possess tens of both Law Rune Stage Powerhouses and Martial Overlord Stage Powerhouses, he could only think of the major powers in the four large-sized Territories!
Nonetheless...
"Dragon Queen, calm yourself down. Davis still hasn"t become one of us!" He bellowed.
Princess Isabella stopped charging her next attack as she narrowed her eyes. A strange silence emanated in the atmosphere before she voiced out, "Is that true?"
Ancestor Dian Alstreim nodded his head.
At this point, he knew that he shouldn"t brush off her words like a little girl"s ravings because her power alone was enough to threaten him and the Alstreim Family. Not to mention, he could tell that she was still sane since she held back against Lia Alstreim and Tia Alstreim.
"Hmph!" Princess Isabella coldly chuckled as she shot a look at Claire, "So that means only Claire and Logan betrayed me..."
"No, no! You"re misunderstanding..." Ancestor Dian Alstreim quickly interrupted.
"Spouting nonsense..." Princess Isabella"s expression became furious before her martial energy surged out like a tide, gathering towards her fists!
Without making a sound, she disappeared from where she hovered, shooting towards Ancestor Dian like a comet while Ancestor Dian Alstreim hurriedly retreated as he conjured his essence energy into crimson flames in a guarded manner as he raised his power to seventy percent, not wanting to harm her accidentally.
"Stop!"
Davis"s voice echoed at this moment, causing everyone present to turn shocked as they saw him appear right between Ancestor Dian Alstreim and the Dragon Queen!
