Divine Emperor of Death

chapter-1710
"Sure!"
Davis smiled and nodded to Isabella's question.
He didn't particularly care for killing them with his own hands as he had already killed their Patriarch and hundreds of powerhouses without even seeing them. Therefore, feeling that Isabella deserved to vent her frustrations on them, he let her do as she pleased.
He looked at her retrieve Miron Zlatan's spatial ring before he saw her lips turn into a curve before it became full of disgust.
"They even looted their own treasury."Isabella spoke, making him raise his brows before he began to laugh.
"Ahaha! As expected of cowards." Davis couldn't help but break out into laughter, "They sent the brave one to deal with me while they ran away with the items from the treasury, and guess what, they might've probably released a piece of news later stating that they did it to keep their treasures from being plundered by me."
Indeed, as Davis said, the two Grand Elders who remained in the Zlatan Family went to the treasury as soon as Hazen Zlatan left with Bylai Zlatan to sacrifice her and took away the most useful resources, leaving the ones below Emperor Grade for the usage of their family.
Originally, they took the treasures away to prepare for the backlash from killing the Emperor of Death, but never did they expect him to know about their plan and counterattack them, causing them to escape the moment they were challenged with their tails between their legs.
Davis felt his Isabella was kind to let go of the Zlatan Family's Treasury, but as luck would have it if the treasury was in the spatial rings of these two Grand Elders, then no one can blame her, saying that she had gone against her word, for she had claimed the spatial rings of the Grand Elders all to herself.
Hearing that, the expressions of the Scarlet Tyrant Hawks were quite dumbfounded. Even Quillen's expression twitched as greed flashed past his scarlet eyes, but he quickly suppressed it.
The Zlatan Family's Treasury in the spatial ring of two powerhouses.If news of this were to be leaked out, who wouldn't dare to fight to the death for it as it contained many treasures that could make one feel heaven!?
'Alas, if it weren't for this Emperor of Death's mysterious prowess, even I might've tried to claim it myself...'
Quillen couldn't help but inwardly sigh.
The risk was enormously different when faced with this scourge. Not only was he a menace himself, but he also had a wicked wolf, a possessor of Death Laws like him, the Earth Dragon Queen, a valiant woman who is the inheritor of an Immortal Inheritance, and finally a fey, the Hex Demoness, who was said to be as powerful as the Vast Sky Emperor and Mandate Emperor.
No one wanted to offend a touch or a bunch of younglings who had already reached their level, for they were well aware that if they failed to kill them, they are the ones who are going to be killed or perhaps enslaved within a few years like the Zlatan Family.
Isabella waved her hands and stored Miron Zlatan's corpse inside her spatial ring as she turned to look at Davis.
"Let's go."
"Please be on your way." Quara clasped her hands as she bowed, "If there is time for you to visit our Scarlet Tyrant Hawk Abode above the floating island of our territory, we will be more than glad to host you and your power."
"I'll keep it in mind."
Davis nodded and left with Isabella, reentering the Territory Gate before returning to the Golden Dragon Valley Territory. From there, they moved north and arrived at the Territory Gate leading to the Magical Beast Sanctuary Territory.
Once they arrived at the Magical Beast Sanctuary Territory, Davis and Isabella saw a similar scene, but instead of nails, the person was bound by thick chains with thorns. It appeared as though it was almost a plant-based life as the thin interwoven chains appeared green, radiating vitality within it as if it was alive.
Nevertheless, their gaze moved as they saw the various types of magical beasts filling up their view. There was a vicious-looking toad, a fiery snail, a windy winged-centipede, and a lot of insect-type magical beasts, not to mention that there were a horned cow, a poised cat with two tails, and razor-sharp teeth dogs, and wolves.
While Davis already read the information about this Territory from the Soul Palace's records, Isabella went: 'No wonder...'
This Territory, as its name indicated, was a gathering of weak magical beasts, whose prowess wasn't high as the three hegemons of the Grand Viridian Beast Mountain Range, nor was it equal to the Scarlet Tyrant Hawk Abode.
However, there was an immense number of Peak-Level Emperor Beast Stage Magical Beasts who could make up for the difference in strength if they ganged up, although it would depend on their united front, which they hadn't seen with their own eyes.
At this moment, a white-winged wolf approached them before it turned into a curvy white-robed female human with white hair draping over its shoulders. She looked gorgeous as a smile appeared on her face.
"Emperor of Death, my name is Everlight, and I would like to welcome you to our Magical Beast Sanctuary, where every magical beast is welcome as long as they don't have a place to stay. We would also like your eminence to know that if your human world doesn't accept your wicked wolf, we'll accept her any day. She can live amongst-"
"No thanks. Nadia is my magical beast, my woman."
"...!?"
Hearing the Emperor of Death's words, the plethora of magical beasts looked shocked as their jaws dropped.
Davis smirked as he looked around.
What if he married Nadia in this place? There were a variety of wolf species he could sense with his soul sense, and sensing her noble queenly aura, wouldn't they all, even this light-attributed Light Sky Wolf, submit to their queen when they see Nadia?
Such a scene, he felt that it would only be spectacular to watch but also boost Nadia's pride, giving her satisfaction as a King-Tier Magical Beast who was biologically meant to rule her species.
"I see." Everlight wryly smiled, "The love between a human and a magical beast is rare. I accept and understand such a notion but not all possess the same opinion as me."
"Understandable."
Davis nodded.
If he recalled correctly, Mival Silverwind offended a few magical beast clans in this Territory because they didn't accept Alia with him and wanted to eat her because she was a human from the righteous path. Indeed, the magical beasts in the Magical Beast Sanctuary were also hostile to human, but it was said that there were also those were kind to humans, like the kind-natured Light Sky Wolf before him.
"This is..."
Isabella's voice sounded at this moment as she looked at the unmoving Grand Elder, looking at her with trembling eyes while looking frightened. However, everyone could see that the Earth Dragon Queen asked about the green chains wrung around the captured Grand Elder.
"Oh, this is a paralyzing vine from the Sultry Midnight Tree that binds its prey as it releases a euphoric aroma that attracts all sorts of victims." Everlight spoke, explaining with detail, "This paralyzing vine is an off-shoot from it, but if the Sultry Midnight Tree dies, it also dies as they share a relevant relationship where the vine is dependent on its mother tree."
"It binds the victim and absorbs their vitality to produce fruits of some sort?"
Isabella raised her brows in question while Everlight nodded.
"Indeed, the Sultry Midnight Tree attracts prey in the night and produces fruit during the lunar eclipse where the yang energy is the highest. Its fruit allows one to live a long life as it increases blood vitality by three thousand years and has less medicinal resistance, meaning that it can be taken repeatedly for a few times before its efficiency disappears."
Davis recalled the information he read and also came to know that it actually increased one's Blood Laws if the fruit is made into a unique pill with another resource. This Sultry Midnight Tree was also sought out by the Blood Pledge Villa and similar wicked path powerhouses for this reason if vitality wasn't just enough, but with the protection of Twelve Magical Beast Clans, protecting it from attacks was relatively easy as they took turns in groups, not to mention that they actually have it for sale.
'If I gift this pill to Schleya, will it be like making it up to her?'
Such question remained in his mind before he shook his head, 'Oh well, Mo Mingzhi will become satisfied if I gift this to Schleya, and that's more than enough.'
He suddenly moved his mouth.
"Can I buy its fruit?"
"So polite," Everlight's lips curved in satisfaction, "But of course, you can buy it from us as long as we possess a good relationship. In this case, as a display of our sincerity, we're even willing to gift you one along with this human who acted despicably."
