Divine Emperor of Death
chapter-1007

It was unknown as to what Dalila Leehan thought as she reluctantly inspected the skies, but nevertheless, jubilant sounds of laughter started to echo.

Princess Isabella felt heartened as she cast a glance at the crowd. She didn't think that these people would ultimately cheer for Davis as they were the 'foes' in this Alchemy Exchange, but her eyes were not on them as it fell on Davis.

She wanted to witness this moment! The blinding applause from the masses while he stood at the center of the stage, basking in glory, was what she wanted to see, but obviously, her hunger for making him stand at the peak hadn't lessened even a bit.

"Hahaha! Congratulations, Alchemist Davis! This pill is indeed authentic, and judging by how quickly and easily this person was able to break through to the Martial Master Stage, it is evident that your claims are a hundred percent true!" Grand Elder Lloyd Alstreim praised with a hearty smile on his face.

He rubbed his beard and eyed Elder Belias Alstreim, who instantly continued.

"Alchemist Davis, you are indeed a future powerhouse of the Alchemy World! You are destined to become one of the Great Pill Emperors of the Fifty-Two Territories eventually!"

As he finished his praise, he secretly eyes Sophie Alstreim to step closer to them.

However, Sophie Alstreim actually got cold feet as a wave of timidity washed over her heart. She stepped back in anxiety as she felt too inferior that she suddenly didn't want even to do anything with Alchemist Davis.

Witnessing this, Elder Belias Alstreim couldn't help but inwardly sigh.

Sometimes, people shine too brightly that the people end up either becoming afraid or wary of them.

Meanwhile, Davis blinked as he heard about the Great Pill Emperors. From reading the Ethren Empire's Imperial Library's records, he vaguely knew that they were a group of individuals who were extremely skilled in alchemy that even cultivators who almost peaked the Ninth Stage treated them with the utmost respect.

Receiving praise like that, he was pleased but inwardly mused that he would eventually become greater than them!

Augustus Alstreim and Claudius Alstreim congratulated him with humility. Davis was surprised to see the latter accept defeat since he viewed him to be secretly arrogant. He received their honeyed words of congratulations, but different than the past, he did not say any words of modesty and straightforwardly accepted the praise that came his way.

Elder Belias Alstreim saw that no one said anything else. So he did not delay any longer and announced the result!

"For this Alchemy Exchange, there is a genius who created three pills of Low-Level King Grade with cultivation directly lower by an entire stage! Undoubtedly, the winner is none other than Alchemist Davis, the subordinate of the Dragon Queen!"

"Divine Heavens! This youth truly did concoct King Grade Pills right in front of our eyes! How can this be possible!!!?"

"And what's more unbelievable is that he managed to create a Body Tempering Type Pill, which is relatively harder to create! His prowess in Soul Forging Cultivation and skills in Alchemy is mind-boggling!"

The whole crowd stood up and started to cheer like crazy again. The sound wave alone could cause many Mortal Grade items to crack and break, but fortunately, everyone here and everything here was powerful enough to withstand the chaotic surge of pressure from their loud voices.

"Arghhh!!! This is unbelievable!!! Top Pill Disciple Dalila Leehan lost!!!"

"This... This is fun in its own way! Take that, Thousand Pill Bully!"

"Miss Second Place, go cry in a corner or run to your Thousand Pill Daddy to be consoled or receive punishment! Hahaha!"

Even though most of it was praise for Davis, many derogatory and sarcastic echoes targeted at the second place were mixed in as well, making Dalila Leehan stare at the crowd in suppressed anger.

If she could pinpoint, she would've basically caught them and let them know their place, but it was not clear who said what in this chaotic atmosphere.

"Silence!" Grand Elder Lloyd Alstreim radiated his tremendous pressure again, making the unabated and daring voices of the crowd instantly silenced.

It was true that they, the Alstreim Family, held resentment for many losses in the past transactions they had with Thousand Pill Palace over the many hundreds, thousands of years, but he was also angered by the crowd!

Grand Elder Lloyd Alstreim was already feeling heartache over losing the nectar but couldn't these retarded people stop sabotaging the least bit advantages they gained from this Alchemy Exchange?

Didn't Dalila Leehan give her word to get them a good deal from the Thousand Pill Palace? There was no reason to rub her off in a bad way right now!

Although Dalila Leehan was not able to pinpoint, Grand Elder Lloyd abruptly Alstreim pointed at a few of them with his senses.

The ones who were pointed at had their faces go pale, but they didn't even try to escape! No, it was better said that they were locked on to buy an invisible pressure threatening to crush them!

They instantly regretted their actions, but there was no medicine for regret. The guards on the spectator's tier instantly pulled them out before Grand Elder Lloyd Alstreim commanded them to whip them ten times for their irresponsible actions publically.

Even though the culprits pleaded for leniency, they were whipped ten times as blood splashed in front of the entire crowd, and the blinding silence made the whipping sounds all the more terrifying, making the people who luckily escaped the punishment pray to the heavens, swearing to themselves that they would never do it again.

Grand Elder Lloyd Alstreim hoped that this would appease Dalila Leehan while Davis kept eyeing a few of them over the crowd. They had actually sneaked in some derogatory sentences against him as well, and he was just staring at them all this time, deciding whether to teach them a lesson or not before he decided that it was a drag before he cut short this farce.

"Now then... If the Alchemy Exchange is over, where are the rewards that were promised by the Alstreim Family?"

"Oh, yes, the rewards... Ha... Ha..." Elder Belias Alstreim awkwardly laughed before he took out a spatial ring from his spatial ring.

Before Elder Belias Alstreim could stretch out his hands and form a polite, congratulating sentence, the spatial ring was snatched away by Alchemist Davis, causing him to possess a frozen smile on his face.

In the end, considering the other party's current status, he didn't say anything even though he felt a bit humiliated.

Davis swept his soul sense inside the spatial ring the same time he bound it to him. He found a Mid-Level King Grade Cauldron with flame patterns. It seemed to be custom-made for the Alstreim Family as it possessed crimson outlook flames and dark crimson flames. Other than it, he found a Low-Level King Grade Body Tempering Cultivation Breakthrough Pill, which is pretty useless when compared to the pill he just concocted a while ago.

He then looked at the final item stored, which was an Advanced-Tier Low-Level King Grade Healing Pill. Out of the two pills, he mused that the Healing Pill would be the only one useful to him in necessary times!
