Chapter 188 - Inside The Castle
"Phew, today was a rough day." Davion laid comfortably on a bed and recalled everything he went through today. Indeed, he had already found an inn in the city to stay.
"Who could have thought that I would be offending two tribes at once after coming here? And it's only my first day." He sighed while looking at the ceiling.
"The Wolf Tribe is not a problem for me. After all, the strongest person it has to offer is only in the Domain Realm. Even though he might not be someone I can fight with my current strength, escaping from him is not a problem." He had a rough guess of his current abilities.
With the use of his multicolored aura and heavenly body, he was capable of easily going up against an early stage Domain Realm expert. The projection of the Patriarch of the Wolf Tribe was at this level.
."This should mean that his real body must at least be in the middle stage of the Domain Realm."
"Hehe, I really want to have a fight with him. But I believe it's dangerous. The Golden Lion Tribe backing them should have already made their move." He became solemn when thinking about this.
Since the Wolf Tribe depended upon the Golden Lion Tribe, then it meant that the Golden Lion Tribe definitely had experts above the Domain Realm; the Venerable Stage. Not only that, they will start investigating the incident in the pill shop soon.
"Nonetheless, I don't think powerhouses like them would personally make a move. They might send some Domain Realm cultivators for nobody like me." He comforted himself.
However, if he learned that he had already caught the attention of the White Tiger Clan, then he would not be laying here comfortably. Especially if he knew they were already on their way
"Furthermore, the investigation will take some time as I haven't revealed my face. I just need to stay here for a week without causing any troubles." He rolled up his sleeves and glanced at his right hand.
The tattoo had become slightly red, and he could feel the elementary flame particles being slowly absorbed from the surroundings.
When he was observing his hand, he sensed someone outside his room.
"Knock..knock.."
"Young Master, I have brought all the dishes you had ordered." A polite male voice was heard.
"Leave it outside," Davion ordered.
"As you say." The male replied and left.
Only after a few minutes, did Davion open the door and look ahead.
"Damn, did I really order this much?" He became speechless. There was a big cart having ten shelves where varieties of dishes were kept in an arranged manner.
"Wew, in a hurry, I simply told him to bring everything available here." He shook his head and pushed the cart inside the room.
Next, he closed the windows and pulled down the curtain. Making sure nobody could peep inside, he gazed at the lamp and channeled his spiritual energy.
"Swish"
He turned into smoke and disappeared into the lamp with the cart on his side.
"Haha, when I first obtained it, I thought that it was simply a powerful space artifact. But I was wrong. Once you have refined it, you can enter and leave as you please." Davion laughed while observing his surroundings.
Yes, he was in the space inside the lamp. The only thing that changed inside from before was that a castle was standing near the pond.
"Humm, strange. Where are those rascals?" He didn't notice Danny and Ryland.
"I thought they would still be creating a ruckus here." While he was pondering, he heard Joanna's voice in his mind.
"Master, you are here." She emerged from the castle and approached him.
"Eh! What were you doing?" He asked.
"You should go inside first." She bowed.
"Is that so?" He was in fact quite curious about what there really was right from the start. He wasn't able to see it due to being busy the whole time.
He followed her and entered through the main door. He saw many rooms on the sides that seemed similar to his courtyard in the Thunderbolt Sect. There was nothing eye-catching except for the beautiful paintings hung on the wall and wolf statues standing in the corners.
"Is this it?" He was disappointed.
Joanna didn't reply but climbed up the large wooden staircase in the middle that led to the upper floor. There he saw a hall with a throne in the center with some small seats on both sides.
"Master, there is a secret room behind the throne." She neared the throne and pushed it forward.
"Clack"
The throne shifted a bit and like a mechanism, the back wall automatically slid to the left revealing a dark chamber.
He gazed inside and became shell-shocked with what he saw.
"My God! Treasures…" He cried out and rushed inside with excitement written all over his face.
"Davion"
"Father"
There he saw Ryland and Danny devouring spirit stones, rare metals, pills, alchemy materials, and many more like candies. This was not the most surprising thing but the energy that was radiating from Ryland.
Just this morning, he had broken through the Golden Core Stage, and now he was on the verge of breaking through the middle stage already. As for Danny, he was the same as usual. Not a single ounce of energy can be detected from him.
"It's strange. Elder Liliana said that she was able to feel strange energy from him. Maybe I can detect it too after my Mind-Eye reaches a certain level." He scanned him from top to bottom.
"Davion, how can you trap us here? I wanted to show my newfound abilities." The Red Head seemed furious. The Blue Head nodded his head in understanding.
"Father, I was bullied." Danny ran into his arms and showed a pitiful expression.
"Really?" Davion gave a cold look to Ryland causing both the heads to shiver in fright.
"No, no. How could we?" The Red Head glanced at the Blue one asking for him to continue.
"I didn't make a single move. It was you who used your Dragon Flame." The Blue Head replied in a disdainful tone.
"You.." If they didn't share the same body, the Red Head would have surely struck him.
Davion didn't bother their quarreling and said, "I have prepared a feast for you all outside. Come and take a look."
"Yes," Danny was the first one to dash out. He was tired of eating those tasteless stones.
"Master, can I cultivate here instead? I found treasures that can help me." Joanna asked in a shy tone. She felt a bit guilty as she was using those treasures to cultivate even before he came here.
"You can." Davion smiled. He could guess why she was acting this way. There is nobody in this world that could resist these treasures. There are tons of middle-grade and lower-grade spirit stones along with treasures of heavens and earth.
"Thank you." She was grateful.
"Now, what shall I do with you?" Davion smirked at Ryland.
The Red Head panicked and had beads of sweat on his forehead. He knew how powerful he was.
"Haiz, forget about it. Just tell me what you know of the Demon Beast World." Davion stopped teasing Ryland and went straight to the point.
"The Demon Beast World!" Both his heads exclaimed at the same time.
"Why are you acting surprised? I made a trip there when you were busy enjoying here." Davion was sure that Ryland would be happy when he heard this.
But the reality seemed different. A dangerous red and blue aura which was far more powerful than his cultivation base was released from him. This seemed similar to the time in the Wild Northern Forest where Ryland had burnt his essence.
"Ryland, stop this," Davion yelled.
"I will kill them."
"Every single one of them." Both the heads of Ryland appeared to have lost their cool.
"Anger is taking over them. I have to interfere." Davion appeared infront of him in the blink of an eye and punched straight in his chest while concentrating a certain amount of his spiritual energy.
"Bang"
His spiritual energy flooded into him and went straight to the demon core near his chest. This energy suppressed the demon core and as a result, his beastly aura was contained. Only then did Ryland was flung away like a cannonball and smashed to a nearby wall. Next, hot and cold breath was released from their mouths like steam and slowly his size decreased in the speed visible to the naked eyes. Next, he passed out.
Although this commotion was huge, nobody came here to check. They thought that Davion was teaching Ryland a lesson. This made Danny very happy thinking that his father loved him the most.
"As I thought, he has a sad backstory." Davion had seen Ryland waking up from a nightmare in a similar way after he had rescued him from Leyla.
"I think he should be ok tomorrow." He left him there and went towards one of the empty rooms.
He then sat cross-legged on the ground and chuckled, "Hehe, it's time to level up."
