Chapter 1029 Unable To Pinpoin
Nonetheless, Bylai Zlatan seemed to be already engaged to the Young Master of the Zlatan Family, who was actually her blood brother. Apparently, their marriage seemed to be scheduled to take place when she reaches five-hundred years old, and people who were aware of the specifics knew that it was mostly to keep their bloodline intact.
However, Dragon Queen Isabella was confirmed to be lesser than two hundred years old by a formation in the Ethren Empire.
Ancestor Dian Alstreim felt that it was safe to that Dragon Queen Isabella wasn't Bylai Zlatan in disguise. It if was so, the information they obtained wouldn't make any sense. Furthermore, there seemed to be no other new Young Mistress candidates; or any stark news of emerging talents from those four families.
Dragon Queen Isabella could not possibly be from those four families!
Hence, he felt that he could strike off all the four great families from the list.
However... there came a true headache.
Unbeknownst to them, there were many families possessing dragon bloodlines that were hidden from the public eyes! Accurately, they were not hidden but relatively unknown compared to those four great families.
Most of them were families that possessed bloodlines of relatively inferior dragons, and some were recently both in the last twenty thousand years. Inferior dragons didn't mean that they were King Rank Species, but they were dragons that were at the cla.s.s of Emperor Rank Species!
The humans who possessed these dragon's bloodline had the capability to grow till the peak of the Eighth Stage without having to constantly rely on resources or pills. However, their numbers were all low that they were only a family of a few hundred people, living in a self-established town or city in many mid-sized Territories!
Even the Magical Beast Territory, the Golden Dragon Valley, seemed to host many families that possessed many dragons' bloodline, with the Golden Dragon Bloodline being on top for that particular Territory.
There is a reasonable chance that one of these relatively unknown families was responsible for giving birth to a prodigy like the Dragon Queen, but he felt that it was unlikely as even the current Young Mistress of the Zlatan Family greatly fell short of Dragon Queen Isabella in terms of talent and prowess.
Besides, if Dragon Queen Isabella's bloodline was able to repel the Aqua Flood Dragon, which is an Emperor Grade Species Magical Beast, it meant that the bloodline grade couldn't be any less than the Zlatan Family's Golden Dragon Bloodline; an Immortal Tier Bloodline!
However, even that Immortal Tier Bloodline that remained in the current era slowly eroded through time, and pa.s.sage of successive generations that the Zlatan Family is doing all in their capacity to keep the bloodline pure! It could be seen by their marriage arrangement.
Shortly musing that Bylai Zlatan would keep the bloodline from lessening for one more generation, he pushed them away and truly started to consider if Dragon Queen Isabella could be from one of those lesser-known dragon-bloodline families.
Actually, he hoped that she was from anywhere but from those four great families. If this were the case, it would be easier for him to check Dragon Queen Isabella from taking away Davis, the person he thought was akin to the Alstreim Family's gem and only hope to grow!
Even if the heavens to every talent away from Davis, he mused that Davis would still become a Soul King in the future as long as he could obtain a suitable Cultivation Manual for him!
Therefore, even if Dragon Queen was from the Zlatan Family, he knew that he still had to try and keep him in the Alstreim Family!
"Revered Ancestor, is it okay to have all those envoys wait outside?" Grand Elder Krax Alstreim suddenly asked.
It destroyed Ancestor Dian Alstreim's train of thought, but he wasn't offended and smiled.
"It is fine. I have most of the Grand Elders stationed at the gates decline anyone who comes to requesting an audience with the Dragon Queen or Alchemist Davis."
"Ancestor..." Grand Elder Krax Alstreim became stumped, "But they are still waiting outside without leaving. If more people gather, wouldn't they storm in by working together perchance?"
"Of course..."
"Are we going to even decline the Thousand Pill Palace's entourage who's only requesting to meet Alchemist Davis?"
Ancestor Dian Alstreim simply nodded his head, not providing an explanation.
Grand Elder Krax Alstreim became utterly dumbfounded!
Why is there a need to offend all these people from hegemonic powers like them!?
The Dragon Queen would leave soon, but they would face the consequences of not letting them meet with the Dragon Queen! Wouldn't the powers waiting outside make things difficult for them to live!?
Heck, it was one thing to not let them meet the Dragon Queen, but he couldn't understand why Ancestor Dian Alstreim would not let the Thousand Pill Palace meet with Alchemist Davis, so he couldn't help but ask.
"Ancestor, I can understand about the Dragon Queen, but why are we not letting them meet with Alchemist Davis?"
"You just returned, so you probably haven't heard it yet."
"Alchemist Davis had broken into the Mature Soul Stage during the Alchemy Exchange, even going as far as to concoct a King Grade Pill with his insufficient Soul Forging Cultivation."
"What!!?"
Grand Elder Krax Alstreim experienced a shock that his jaws dropped!
Ancestor Dian Alstreim's lips widened, but his smile was a bit strange.
Who was he kidding? He knew that Davis was already at the Supreme Soul Stage, the Seventh Stage in Soul Forging Cultivation! It was the stage where the majority of their Ancestors had reached in their ten-thousand years of lifespan!
There was no way he would let them meet for now!
However, he wasn't afraid that Davis would change sides.
Instead of being bought, he knew that Davis would make them a piece of additional bargaining chip instead, saying: "Don't interfere with us; otherwise, I would join the Thousand Pill Palace to make things difficult for you, and the entire Alstreim Family."
He didn't want something like that happening as he knew that arrogant brat would do it! Besides, to even think of giving away the Alstreim Family's true prized gem to the Thousand Pill Palace for a few measly benefits, he would have to be r.e.t.a.r.ded.
However, he hadn't said anything about Davis's true cultivation base or disguise to anyone else and kept it to himself all this long. Furthermore, he hadn't taken any actions or monitored them. All because he wanted to show sincerity and wanted to believe that the other party would behave within the limit he had placed.
He was already aware that Nora Alstreim was in the Purple Guest Palace, and he hoped that they were doing as he said. At least, he knew that they would not go as far as to kill her, and he was sure that they had not killed her in these two months because her life tablet hadn't shattered yet.
Otherwise, he wouldn't be sitting still, leisurely comprehending Heart Intent.
Grand Elder Krax Alstreim finally came out of his reverie and looked at Ancestor Dian Alstreim with a strange gaze. Probing Dragon Queen's background and not letting anyone meet with Alchemist Davis
"Is A-Ancestor planning to..."
"That's right..." Ancestor Dian Alstreim calmly stated, "We'll have Alchemist Davis be a part of the Alstreim Family."
"!!!"
"I heard one of your granddaughters partic.i.p.ated in the recent Alchemy Exchange..."
Grand Elder Krax Alstreim's eyes were wide!
He couldn't help but inwardly praise! The Ancestor was truly ahead and farsighted in any way he could think of! Besides... If his prized granddaughter was able to obtain the favor of Alchemist Davis...
He experienced a s.h.i.+ver in his spine as he imagined that he would become the grandfather-in-law of a future powerhouse!
