Divine Emperor of Death
chapter-1642

Outside the gathering site, the Vast Sky Emperor appeared.

As he took a few steps forward to leave, a spatial tunnel directly appeared in front of him as he stepped inside, and when he exited, he was already before a Territory Gate. He crossed the Territory Gate and entered the next Territory before essence energy congregated out of him, once again forming a spatial tunnel whereupon he took a few steps forward again, disappearing and reappearing over to the next Territory Gate.

Like this, the Vast Sky Emperor used his spatial energy to travel at an immense speed, all the while striding forward as if he were merely taking a walk in a park.

Soon, he arrived in the Alstreim Family Territory after crossing a few Territories, and when he appeared near the Territory Gate connecting the Alstreim Family Territory and the Tripartite Alliance Territory, he swiftly came to a stop as he looked at the wicked wold materialize in front of him out of nowhere.

Its deathly energy swirled around while it barred his fangs towards him.

"What do you want?"

Nadia's voice echoed, causing the Vast Sky Emperor to feel a bit of danger from her, the same danger he once felt that disallowed them all from making a move on Isabella. In truth, they all possessed a confidence that if the four of them attacked together, they could bring this wolf down.

However, the problem was that there were two wolves, severely weighing them down. Moreover, they wanted to have Isabella, a woman who possessed immortal blood. If they had a child with her, they would give birth to a legacy far more talented than them. On that note, they, who never lacked virgins, were able to look past that she was married and lost her purity for what they needed is a legacy.

"I've come to visit Earth Dragon Queen Isabella and see if she is alright."

"Begone!~ You are not welcome unless called."

Nadia growled as she waved her paw. Her claw shone with a deathly pale light as it sliced the air, unleashing a deadly wave of pitch-black energy that came rushing at Vast Sky Emperor.

The Vast Sky Emperor's expression changed at this stupid wolf's aggression. He hurriedly raised his hand while his spatial energy surged out from his palms, forming an invisible pressure unseeable to the eyes when he suddenly clenched his fists.

*Crack!~*

Space cracked before it shattered under pressure, causing most of the death energy wave that was unleashed at him to be sucked into the void. However, a part of the slicing death energy split through the fabric of space and arrived towards him.

*Bang!~*

Vast Sky Emperor clenched his teeth and punched, spatial might erupting from his fist while releasing both his essence energy and martial energy into this attack. It efficiently cleared Nadia's remnant slash of death energy, but his brows raised, making him wonder with a bit of shock.

'This wolf... It has become a bit stronger than the last time?'

He didn't dare underestimate this wolf as it still had the potential for growth. He could see that it was just was Mid-Level Emperor Beast Stage King Tier Magical Beast, but its prowess actually reached towards him. If he did not have the advantage with the spatial fabric being unable to bear their attacks, even he wouldn't feel confident of taking it down alone.

The world knew that the Mandate Emperor was the strongest human cultivator, but only a few people knew that he, the Vast Sky Emperor, was comparable to the Mandate Emperor! If they fought against each other, it was unknown who would win, yet this magical beast almost matched them while being a Mid-Level Emperor Beast Stage Magical Beast!

'I must attain Isabella and also gain control of this magnificent magical beast through her no matter what...!'

*Whizz!~*

His eyes shone with a greedy light before he reached out his hand, wanting to suppress this wicked wolf with his overbearing spatial energy when he suddenly blinked, his gaze widening as he saw the beauty arriving from the distance.

"Stop!~"

Nadia was just going to attack again when she heard Isabella's voice. Her raised claws lowered as she backed two steps in the air, appearing as though she truly listened to Isabella and only her.

Isabella was at least hundreds of kilometers away, but she quickly arrived on the scene with her extreme speed and stopped beside Nadia. She raised her hand and brushed Nadia's fur as if to calm Nadia down before she turned to look at the Vast Sky Emperor.

"What is the meaning of this? I did tell you all that entering without my permission is tantamount to showing hostility, no?"

Her melodious voice echoed, seemingly containing a bit of anger.

"I was just worried about you, Earth Dragon Queen."

Vast Sky Emperor pursed his lips and reached out his hand before he took it back, slightly brushing his golden hair as he looked away.

"Looks like there was no need."

"Indeed, there isn't. Now leave."

Hearing Isabella's cold words, the Vast Sky Emperor's expression almost twitched. Wasn't she supposed to look at him with a complex gaze at this moment?

'What a thick wall. However...'

He refused to believe that he couldn't break past this woman's defenses as he turned to look at her and smiled.

"We stayed clear of this place due to you giving your word to us that you would give the key to the Forsaken Phoenix Realm. Your complexion is good, and it seems like you finished mourning for your late husband, so can we have that key?"

Isabella narrowed her eyes.

Was she that obvious?

Indeed, the expression on her face before Davis's revival and after his revival possessed a stark difference. Her eyes were no longer dull, and the healthy complexion on her face could be seen. It could be said that she forgot to act sad, but she didn't feel the need to do so either.

"Didn't I say a year?"

"You did, and we agreed." The Vast Sky Emperor heavily nodded, "However, I implore the Earth Dragon Queen to reconsider. The disaster from the Calamity Light would be soon upon us that we need to strengthen our forces, and what other good way is there other than obtaining the Fire Phoenix's Immortal Inheritance?"

"The longer you delay, the lesser our chances will be to survive, and I..." He gazed at her with a complex look on his face, "I don't want you to suffer, Isabella. You deserve more happiness than you think."

Isabella's brows raised as she looked taken aback.

"You say that you do not want me to suffer?"

The Vast Sky Emperor couldn't help but nod twice, "I do not want you to suffer. The more you think of your late husband, the more you are going to grieve. I can't stand the sight of such a beautiful and powerful woman like you hurting alone. If you truly wish to be happy, then you know which path you must choose. Allow this man to be your support in life."

"I want to cherish you, Isabella."

Silence pervaded the atmosphere at this moment once the Vast Sky Emperor spoke his piece and appeared sincere, his expression appearing calm and full of confidence.

However, Isabella and Nadia looked at each other before their lips curved.

"Pfftt! Ahahaha!!!"

"...!?"

The Vast Sky Emperor became stunned at their laughs. Even the wicked wolf was laughing, making him become dumbfounded. His expression abruptly became contorted as he never felt so humiliated in his life.

"What's so funny?"

Isabella's laughter died, followed by Nadia's. The former appeared to gaze at him with a cold look.

"I became married and swore loyalty to my husband in this life. I may be a widow, but what makes you think that you can come into my life just like that and give happiness as if you possess such a thing?"

"Isabella, you don't get it. I can-"

The Vast Sky Emperor flicked his sleeves and shook his head, but he was interrupted.

"Don't call me by my name! You call yourself a leader of the righteous path, and yet you're going after a married woman who's vulnerable after the death of her husband? There's no one more despicable and shameless than you, Vast Trash Emperor."

Isabella's expression twisted into one of rage as she gazed at him coldly.

"You're disgusting...!"

The Vast Sky Emperor's expression was cold, but it kept twitching as it almost contorted from the humiliation he received. In his thousands of years of life, not once had he received this kind of insult from a woman!
