Davis wrinkled his nose as he rubbed it off with the back of his fingers as he found the fragrance to be quite invasive.


    Isabe blinked as she noticed his movements but only inwardlyughed, "How have you been?"


    "Me?" Davis pointed at himself and suddenly realized that she noticed his movements just now. This led him to assume that she was trying to remove the awkwardness between them.


    After all, he knew that they weren’t close enough to ask each other about their well being. At least, that was not how things worked in the cultivation world.


    He quickly replied, "As you can see, I’m well offpared to most people present in thispetitive world..."


    Isabe gently nodded.


    In truth, she only asked that since she saw him as a junior. It was Davis who had read too much into the situation.


    "Why did youe here?" Isabe asked as she took out two crystalline cups.


    "To this region? I came to hunt beasts and increase my prowess to gain a better chance at reaching a breakthrough to the next level."


    Taking out some jug shaped container, she poured it over in the crystalline cups.


    "It seems like you achieved what you came here for..."


    He nodded, "Yes."


    "I see, how is the situation back there? Is it still chaotic?" Isabe gentlyughed.


    Davis smiled as he took the cup from the table, "You are worried about your Ruth Empire?"


    Isabe just smiled but didn’t reply.


    "Don’t worry, almost nothing of concern happened after you left. Even the invasion that the Tripartite Alliance took part in was easily taken care of..."


    "That’s good..." Isabe replied with the same smiling face but if one were to look closely, they would see that she was relieved of a burden.


    Davis noticed it as her muscles slightly rxed as the cup she held trembled slightly.


    "It’s just that... we discovered an Immortal Inheritance..." Davis suddenly said, his tone a little inquisitive.


    A sharp aura suddenly covered the entire room before it disappeared in an instant.


    Davis’s eyes dted in trepidation. He felt his heart go weak before such a pure yet oppressing battle aura.


    No! Can it even be called battle aura?


    It took him a few seconds to recover and utter a question, "You reached the Seventh Stage in Body Tempering Cultivation?"


    Isabe still looked at him sharply for a while but nodded slightly to his question.


    Davis blinked as he confirmed his suspicions.


    He thought she was at Sixth Stage, at the most, Peak-Level. What he hadn’t expected from her was that she had already reached the Seventh Stage.


    The Seventh Stage in Body Tempering Cultivation no longer has the type of energy known as battle aura but has a distinct energy known as martial energy.


    In fact, this martial energy starts to fill up the body when one reaches the Sixth Stage in Body Tempering Cultivation.


    During the time Davis broke through, he didn’t notice themotion outside since the energy from his breakthrough flooded the cave.


    Meanwhile, Isabe noticed his breakthrough during the battle, albeit it was vague.


    She only knew that he had achieved a breakthrough in one of the Cultivation Systems but didn’t know his exact strength due to the undtions being weak.


    "Looks like the inheritance in your Empire really is an Immortal Inheritance..." Davis shook his head with a slight smile.


    With an example like Natalya, he knew that women really found it hard to cultivate Body Tempering Cultivation.


    In this case, Isabe who was just around the same age as his father, Logan, should’ve only reached around Fifth Stage, or the Sixth Stage at the most.


    This was the case unless the other party had some kind of fortuitous encounters.


    Of course, Isabe could’ve also had some fortuitous encounter here but he already had his suspicions on the Ruth Empire’s so-called Flood Dragon Bloodline on top of ire’s deductions.


    Isabe suddenly stood up, her eyes glowing with a slight amount of hostility.


    In such a close range, Davis knew he was screwed if the harmless spark turned into a fire, so he just continued, "What I just said about discovering an Immortal Inheritance isn’t about the one in your Empire..."


    "That’s why you can rest assured."


    Isabe’s reaction didn’t change while she just kept staring at him.


    Davis wryly smiled.


    Her hostile gaze said to him that she didn’t believe in his excuse one bit.


    Davis felt a little amused.


    He said that they discovered an Immortal Inheritance and she instantly believed him.


    Then he said that the discovered Immortal Inheritance was not in her Ruth Empire and she did not believe him.


    Truly, people believed what they wanted to believe!


    Even so, he didn’t show any weakness in front of hostile intent but said, "It’s up to you whether if you believe me or not, but I’m returning to the Grand Sea Continent as soon as possible."


    "I’m also returning!" Isabe instantly said with a piercing gaze.


    Davis inwardly let out a smile as his n worked. He had been stressed about the fact that what if he couldn’t find the independent gateway which Isabe used to enter the First Layer.


    In that case, wouldn’t he have to wait for ten years for the secret entrance to open and reunite with Evelynn and his family?


    That was a lot of time and in that while, anything could happen and Davis was having none of it.


    Davis spoke, "Actually, it would be helpful if you could apany me as well."


    "After all, I don’t know from which spatial tunnel you used toe here anyway. It would take me time to find out, but with you, I might find it sooner!"


    Isabe narrowed her eyes, "You didn’te with your master?"


    Davis shook his head, "My master did indeede here, but that was through a different method. I arrived here through the spatial tunnel that is used for the younger generations."


    Isabe narrowed her brows, "The one I didn’t participate in?"


    "Yes..."


    Hearing so, Isabe moved her gaze away as she pondered on his words


    The room gradually turned silent.
