Divine Emperor of Death
chapter-1941

Schleya watched Jeras Orcha and Welch Regalanius clash. She sensed their prowess and saw that they had only tested each other at the moment.

"Welch, if you use your fire against me, you'll clearly lose. Bring out your Mandate Laws. Only a law on the level of a Greater Law can stop my Water Dragon's Water, but even then, it's not a given."

The Young Master of the Orcha Family, Jeras Orcha, chuckled with a youthful demeanor. However, his sapphire eyes gave the feeling that his wisdom was as deep as the ocean.

"Jeras Orcha. I see you have become more powerful after marrying your elder sister."

Welch Regalanius spoke in an indifferent tone, but one could see that there was a faint sense of derision in his eyes.

However, Jeras Orcha didn't seem offended.

"It is only fate that Giselle belongs to me."

He raised his hand as deep blue water gathered around him before he unleashed at Welch Regalanius.

Welch Regalanius blinked before his lips moved, "Evaporate~"

Formless might emerged, and as though the heaven and earth received a mandate from the heavens, it struck the wave of deep blue water.

*Bang!~*

The deep blue water crumbled, but only a large portion of it disappeared. The remaining small wave continued to splash towards him, intending to drown him.

Welch Regalanius didn't underestimate that wave of water one bit as he hurriedly circulated his fire energy, unleashing a fiery wave at it. When they clashed, the attacks exploded and turned into mist, filling the space with a foggy atmosphere as well as a remnant heaviness.

"What heavy water… the might of the Water Dragon is really amazing..."

Welch Regalanius couldn't help but feel amazed by this power. The water was able to endure the power of his Mandate Laws. He had fought with so many water cultivators, but they would be powerless to fight against him.

"You really dared to train in Fire Laws. You have my respect. Haha."

Jeras Orcha laughed while Welch Regalanius wryly shook his head.

It wasn't that he should not train in multiple laws or the prowess he could unleash would become less powerful but…

The mandate energy is attributeless.

One can still train in other energies while using it, but to practice Mandate Laws is not easy. It was also why Clara was capable of using it alongside her ice energy. It doesn't interfere with the other energies. However, only a certain few trained in other laws while practicing Mandate Laws because some conservative people in the Heaven Mandate temple were of the idea that they were blaspheming the heavens if they were to train in other laws while using Mandate Laws.

But clearly, he was not like that.

However, only he knew what kind of trouble he had to go through to convince his father to let him learn Fire Laws. Although his father stated a different reason, such as it would cause him to forsake or become weak in Mandate Laws, he worked on comprehending Mandate Laws before proving himself capable.

Besides, not anyone can train in Mandate Laws. Even with the Mandate Emperor's blood flowing in their bodies, not all of his siblings could train in it because they must have a certain affinity for it. It was considered a half-a-gift from the heavens.

Nevertheless, his Fire Sea was a hundred kilometers, but his Mandate Sea was only ninety kilometers, but even then, it was enough to battle equally against hundred-kilometer Primary Law Sea because it was a Greater Law Sea.

Greater Laws possessed an intrinsic suppression over Primary Laws unless, of course, that Primary Laws had a special property or uniqueness to it like having the uniqueness of dragon blood. Therefore, he knew that his chances of winning this battle were a bit high as long as he played the cards right.

If only he knew where that Young Blood Demoness was hiding… After witnessing the bloody scene she created, a certain amount of nervousness remained in his heart. If he got sneak attacked and cut into pieces, he really would not know whether to laugh or cry.

Although Jeras Orcha looked confident of his chances, he felt the same as Welch Regalanius.

That's why they also had not gone all-out, waiting for her to show up.

A few kilometers away, Schleya pulled back her head from peeking and lowered her head, contemplating.

Judging by their initial show of force, she could tell that they were most likely the same level as her.

Glorious Pill Palace's Young Master Faus possessed a hundred-kilometer Vast Sea like Zestria. Therefore, there was no reason for them not to have a hundred-kilometer Vast Sea. Furthermore, it seemed that Welch Regalanius seemed to have two Vast Seas…?

An exciting gleam thrilled into existence in her eyes. This was going to be a bloody battle that might end with her being crippled if she wasn't careful.

"Crescentblood, are you up for this?"

Abruptly, the two crimson curved blades silently appeared in her hands.

"Even if I have to crumble into countless shards, I will drown in a sea of blood for you before I leave this world, master."

A melodious voice of a young woman fell in her mind, making her feel composed and brave.

"Don't worry. This is not a battle to the death. At least, that should be the case but be on guard."

"Mhm~"

Schleya's lips were slightly curved in satisfaction.

Crescentblood was her only companion in her days as the Young Villa Mistress in the Blood Pledge Villa. She had someone specifically forge these two blades for her using an ore called the Bloodbirth Ore. It was hard to obtain, and even the Blood Pledge Villa only possessed a few tons of it, but its grade was merely Mortal Grade. However, the shocking thing was it could grow up to Emperor Grade as long as one fed their blood essence to it in enough amounts.

She had nurtured this armament spirit from its birth with her blood essences. Therefore, their bond was extremely deep.

She trusted no one except this little yet sharp companion of hers, but that was until she met Mo Mingzhi, who then stuck with her like a follower while she fought for her life. Back then, she had almost despaired that Mo Mingzhi betrayed her when Davis captured her for the second time. However, only did she later know that it was because she wanted her man to make things right. If Mo Mingzhi didn't take that kind of action, then she wouldn't be here right now, 'amicably' battling with righteous path experts.

So, it could be said that the number of people she trusted grew a bit.

However, she didn't trust these experts one bit. Who is to say that they wouldn't try to 'accidentally' kill her?

Schleya twisted her hips and jumped out of the mountain edge, flying towards them.

"You came out?"

Jeras Orcha and Welch Regalanius were shocked as they instantly noticed her presence blazing. Judging by her origin and how she fought, she was more likely to sneak attack them. But to fly towards them openly, was she mocking them or was she acting honorable?

They felt it was most likely the former and felt angered for being looked down on but didn't react.

Schleya stopped at a distance at pointed one of Crescentblood's twin blades at them.

"Due to our similar prowess, I will not be able to use my Blood Rejuvenation Art while battling you two, so don't rely on it."

"…!"

'Dammit! She's definitely mocking us…!'

Jeras Orcha and Welch Regalanius inwardly raged.

Schleya felt like she had given them a fair warning so that they wouldn't blame her for being unable to use it later. She didn't want to implicate Davis anymore as every time he spoke for her, she felt that she kept owing him more and more, which made her feel strange and complicated.

"Hmph! Too arrogant! Experience my Water Dragon Blood's might before opening your mouth!"

Jeras Orcha stepped onto the phantom provocation and unleashed a technique as he spread his hands. Small spheres of water around him, each revolving with intensity. The space around them seemed to become heavy and threatening before they shot forwards when Jeras Orcha lunged them at Schleya.

Schleya took a step forward and slashed the space in front of her with Crescentblood. A curved strand of blood energy cut through the air as it headed towards those heavy water spheres, intending to pierce them.

*Bang!~*

When the blood strand pierced the water sphere, it caused the water sphere to collapse, filled with blood. The heavy water that tried to split into a tiny sphere became contaminated with blood energy before it was eradicated.

Jeras Orcha became shocked to witness this scene.

Despite the heavy density of his water, she was still able to corrupt his water energy with her blood energy? Moreover, he was above the river valley that was emitting a dense water aura, which was a bit advantageous to him.

He had fought so many blood cultivators, but they weren't this strong that he had to admit her blood energy was strong. If those ordinary blood cultivators got caught in his water, they would be crushed to death by its cohesiveness. They would not be able to even escape, so how could they even have the time to corrupt his water?

However, he refused to admit that it could compare to the Water Dragon's might as he used the other heavy water spheres to bombard her.

Space shook with the advent of the heavy water spheres. However, Schleya repeatedly slashed the water spheres from a distance as her blood energy pierced into them, causing them to explode into a rain of crimson!
