Claire smiled wryly, "It’s just that, I didn’t think that he would be in the Tripartite Alliance Territory, establishing himself and running a mercenary group."
Davis finally understood why the Cloud Spring Mercenaries was able to become the king of mercenaries in the Tripartite Alliance Territory sooner than any other power once it was established.
And the three maids who were by Daniuis’s side were none other than those triplets, the three Su’s, his current wives
As for the one who had her womb injured, Davis conclusively felt that it was none other than Su Hualing.
He also finally understood why Su Hualing had been so good to him, ’No wonder she was nice to me and all the kids in the Cloud Spring Mercenaries... For a long period of time, she was unable to birth children till she was cured and had Lucas and Lucia as a result...’
As for Daniuis’s anger with lascivious man... He wasn’t surprised because of the sequence of these events in the past.
He understood that in the cultivation world, men mostly fought for three things with their strength, even dying in the process with glory or in vain.
Wealth, Women and Reputation which was also known as Face.
As long as one is involved, blood was bound to flow like a river.

While Davis was discussing Daniuis’s past, it didn’t take long for Daniuis to arrive towards the cave where Claire and the others stayed.
Daniuis could rest and restore his essence energy but he had said to his niece that they can talk once they arrived at the hideout, so he didn’t feel well to delay any longer. Besides, without confirming who these mysterious group of masked experts were, he did not dare to relax too much.
He stepped inside and saw all four of them were with masks on their faces.
Claire saw that the burns on her Uncle were nowhere to be seen, or either hidden by his clothes. She took off her mask as she got straight to the point, "Uncle, what happened to my father?"
Daniuis straightened his posture before explaining, "Your father no longer bothered about the Alstreim Family after you ’died’, instead he opted to enter closed-door seclusion, intending to cultivate."
Claire’s heart pounded faster but when she heard that her father was still alive, she inwardly heaved a sigh of relief. Her sigh of relief was rather huge that everyone present was able to understand her complex emotions.
"Your father only contacted me twice in these two decades. One was around ten years ago and the other was way back when the news that you ’died’ circulated."
"I see... What did my father say to you about me before going into closed-door cultivation?"
"He didn’t say much. He just said that he was going to concentrate on tempering his body."
Claire nodded her head in understanding. Her father was crippled but that didn’t mean he couldn’t entirely cultivate. Only her father’s meridians were crippled making his Essence Gathering Cultivation useless, not his body.
However, crippling the meridians also puts a strain on Body Tempering Cultivation which increases the difficulty by two or more times depending upon the stage one would try to reach.
The higher the stage, the higher the difficulty would be, unless the person can successfully heal their meridians.
’More than twenty years of Body Tempering Cultivation. I wonder what stage father would have reached...’ Claire pondered as she knew that her father was at the Third Stage in Body Tempering Cultivation when she left towards the Immortal Inheritances.
Her father’s Body Tempering Cultivation fell from the Gold Stage to the Iron Stage when he crippled himself to save her from being honor killed by the Alstreim Family.
Now, more than twenty years have passed and it was possible that her father had reached the Gold Stage or even above!
After a short pause, Daniuis asked, "Are you going to return to the Alstreim Family?"
Claire nodded her head, not hiding her intentions, "I’m going to force them to give me justice!"
Daniuis frowned as he rubbed his temple. He couldn’t help but advise Claire, "Niece, don’t you think this is too hasty?"
Claire shot a glare towards Daniuis, "Hasty? I already waited for more than 50 years for this! You want me to wait for even more!? Impossible!"
Claire heatedly spat out as her bosom heaved but she let out the breath and calmed down.
"Originally, I opted to settle this grudge by using the rules of the family. I fairly fought for the spot of Young Mistress and was even so close to it even though my chances were less, yet, they played dirty again!"
They had once used a lame reason that steemed from the honor of the family to punish her father. They were playing dirty and they did the same thing again!
"I went to participate in the entrance of the Forsaken Phoenix Realm to gain further advantage in my quest to become the Young Mistress, however, I didn’t think they would go so as far as to ambush me at that time!"
Claire tried to suppress her emotions, however, it instead fuelled her rage, "They have gone too far!"
Davis noticed their Grand Sea Continent being called Forsaken Phoenix Realm and so did Logan and Evelynn.
Claire had once told them that the Grand Sea Continent held the Ice and Fire Phoenix Immortal Inheritance but at the same time, she was unsure if it pointed at a single Immortal entity or two entities. Hence, its name was Forsaken Phoenix Realm.
The ’Forsaken’ from the Forsaken Phoenix Realm should be because no matter how they tried sending their youths or Fifth Stage Experts, it all ended in failure when faced against the Guardian Alliance of the Grand Sea Continent.
It could be seen that from this that the three major powers, The Alastreim Family, Towering Cloud Hall and Falling Snow Sect have really stopped encouraging their strongest to take part in the entrance to the Forsaken Phoenix Realm since they would face the fate of death in front of the Guardian Alliance’s defense.
Daniuis thought of stopping his niece again but decided against it. He didn’t know how Claire managed to survive their ambush but that was her own story.
He didn’t know how much she could have suffered because of it.
Instead, he sighed, "You intend to get the Young Mistress position again? Or..."
Claire’s lips curved, "Originally, I intended to do so, however... I decided that I don’t need to do it anymore as it would only cost me, my family."
"Family? Ah, you mean that you’re giving up for your father?" Daniuis’s expression relaxed, "I thought..."
"Who said I’m giving up?" Claire interrupted, causing Daniuis to stop in his tracks.
Daniuis experienced a headache.
His niece wasn’t giving up but choosing another method other than choosing the Young Mistress status? Didn’t that mean she was practically going to turn hostile and wage war against the Alstriem Family?
Daniuis quickly wanted to stop her but Claire seemed to be part of a mysterious group.
Could it be that this mysterious group was strong enough to wage war against the Alstreim Family?
"I’m going to send my pride to the Alstreim Family to show them how a Young Master should be!" Claire arrogantly spoke as a proud face accentuated her beauty.
Daniuis turned stunned as his gaze couldn’t help but land on that so-called ’pride’.
