"Okay."
Reina's eyes flickered.
She suspected that the Duke Frost Wolf was collecting potions.
It should be for their offspring, and she didn't mind this.
According to the initial agreement, if their offspring possessed the Snow Demon Bloodline, they would return to the Jingge Kingdom to become the new King.
From the moment she accepted this deal, her fate was to bear children for the Frost Wolf Clan. She didn't believe the Duke Frost Wolf would really help her with knight training.
David looked through the list Reina provided.
The core ingredients for the Snow Demon Potion are scales or feathers from an Ice Magical Beast, combined with Cold Ice Grass that only grows in a cold environment and Ice Crystal Stone that contains the Power of Ice, plus some Frosty Snow Water to make it.
These conditions are very strict and can only possibly be found in the Land of Extreme Cold. Preparing a Snow Demon Potion is not a simple task.
"I will help you find these materials." David got up and left.
Afterwards, he called the Gray Wolf Knight and asked him to find out the whereabouts of these materials. If they could be obtained, it would be ideal.
"Young Master David," the Gray Wolf Knight hesitated as he looked at the list.
Currently, Frost Wolf Ridge is indeed very poor, and collecting the materials needed for a Tier Four Frost Wolf Potion would consume most of the financial resources.
In this situation, helping Princess Jingge with knight training is somewhat beyond our ability, and he also felt there was no real need for it.
"Keep an eye on it for now."
"The territory... will get better eventually."
David said.
Ultimately, it's poverty; something must be done about it.
After the Gray Wolf Knight left, David returned to the training room to continue cultivating.
Currently, his Frost Wolf Breathing Technique has reached a bottleneck, and he can only gradually grind it out or rely on the breakthrough from the Tier Five Frost Giant Wolf Bloodline transformation to attempt a breakthrough, so he temporarily set it aside.
Luckily, he had successfully awakened the Snow Demon Spirit and already acquired the Snow Demon Breathing Technique, which he could practice to see if he could gain any insights.
Compared to the Frost Wolf Breathing Technique, which requires various wolf-like movements, the Snow Demon Breathing Technique is somewhat similar to Inner Power Cultivation from the Martial Hero World.
He sat cross-legged and began to activate the Snow Demon Spirit according to the Snow Demon Breathing Technique, channeling the energy contained within the Snow Demon Spirit around his body to strengthen his body using the Power of Ice.
Whoosh whoosh—
With each breath, David suddenly exhaled cold air.
Around his body, ice elements also began to constantly condense, entering his body through the Snow Demon Breathing Technique, ultimately converging toward the Snow Demon Spirit.
Harnessing the natural energy of heaven and earth to train spiritual power is the power of Wizard Meditation Method, and now the Snow Demon Breathing Technique also shows a similar effect.
Moreover, the Intermediate Ice Element Talent seems to enhance this cultivation effect, condensing more ice elements to be absorbed.
The Snow Demon Spirit floated, transforming into an ice giant wolf's shadow.
At this moment, it also stirred the Frost Giant Wolf Bloodline within him.
Howl—
David couldn't help but let out a wolf howl.
At the same time, the Frost Giant Wolf Bloodline was also activated, with waves of blood energy surging, and part of the ice elemental energy absorbed into his body also entered the Frost Giant Wolf Bloodline, activating the Ice Power contained within!
The powerful blood energy and ice energy together enhanced the strength of the Frost Giant Wolf Bloodline, continuously evolving toward a stronger species level!
Although the Frost Giant Wolf is still Tier Four, the bloodline power it radiates is far stronger than that of an ordinary Tier Four Frost Giant Wolf Bloodline!
When David opened his eyes, silver light flickered within them. After completing the Snow Demon Breathing Technique, both the Snow Demon Spirit and Ice Power had improved, and his own spiritual power had also increased.
The stronger spiritual power allowed him to control the Ice Power more effectively!
"No wonder it's the royal bloodline that has ruled the Jingge Kingdom for countless years," David sighed; the Snow Demon Spirit and Snow Demon Breathing Technique are indeed powerful.
Currently, his Snow Demon Spirit was only Tier One. If he could raise it to a higher level, his Ice Power should be no less than a Wizard of the same level!
Unfortunately, he still had a long way to go to gain Reina's approval and have her willingly become part of the Frost Wolf Clan; it's a long and arduous journey.
…
Thus, a few more days passed.
Aside from that one night, David hadn't touched Reina again.
Later, he moved back to the third floor, returning to his previous lifestyle.
[You have completed a session of cultivation, Frost Giant Wolf Bloodline +65]
[Frost Giant Wolf Bloodline: Tier Four (8108/10000)]
In the training room.
Liya leaned against the wall, panting heavily.
Although her strength had improved again during this time, she still couldn't keep up with David's pace, and as his power increased once more, she began to struggle.
"Young Master David, is Little Sister Reina still unwilling?" Liya turned around and hugged the Lord, pressing her body against him, and asked.
She knew that Young Master David was a principled person.
If he hadn't received their consent, he definitely wouldn't act recklessly.
Fire Dance and Shuili were the best examples of this.
Originally, she thought Reina joining would help share the burden.
But the proud princess still hadn't accepted everything.
She had actually tried to persuade her, but not everyone is as simple as Amy; if you treat her well, she will double her response to you.
"Take it slowly."
"Today, having you is enough for me."
David chuckled and lifted Liya, pressing her back against the wall.
Another round of cultivation.
With the system prompt sounding again, he exhaled comfortably.
Liya also felt relieved, her face full of sweetness.
…
As time passed.
Reina gradually relaxed.
Although she still didn't smile, she was no longer as cold as before.
During this time, the Roman Knight also arrived at the castle.
Currently, this Tier Three Knight primarily handles the castle's security, which gives the Roman Knight a chance to stay by Princess Jingge's side.
Despite the castle having the Duke Frost Wolf, whose strength is close to that of a Tier Four Earth Knight, the Roman Knight was still very worried about the Duke of Ice Crown sending assassins.
"Princess, are you alright?" Roman asked worriedly.
"I'm fine."
"The Duke Frost Wolf treats me very well."
Reina would only show a hint of a smile in front of Roman.
To be honest, this period in the castle was her most relaxed time; the Duke Frost Wolf also treated her very well and did not make things difficult for her.
Apart from the fact that their beginning was a transaction, and the Duke Frost Wolf had two other lovers, the Duke treated her truly as a hostess.
Or rather.
The three of them were all the hostesses of the house.
