Divine Emperor of Death
chapter-2016

Everyone felt intense curiosity over Ellia's existence and also a bit of jealousy because Davis went to such lengths to get her back. Moreover, they could see that she was a dazzling, empire-toppling beauty. Even while sleeping and looking battered, her looks triumphed over most of them, making them pout and sulk at another rival they weren't acquainted with.

"She Myria too."

Davis answered, starting to heal himself. His wounds quickly kept closing, and flesh grew anew. However, his words caused many of them to stagger.

"Ah!~ She's still alive!?" Fiora felt rattled.

"There's no way around it." Davis shook his head, "Killing Myria would kill Ellia but not the other way around, according to the both of them."

"What!?"

"That's so unfair!"

"Did Myria do something to Ellia to be like this?"

Many questions were thrown at him, causing him to reply.

"Perhaps, she did. Perhaps, she did not because it's her unique physique's ailment. In any case, this isn't a matter that could be resolved easily, and I don't want to play with Ellia's life, so I only plan to try something about it when I reach the immortal level while also gaining more knowledge and assurance."

At this moment, Shirley approached Davis and kissed his lips, her eyes looking deeply relieved, "Thank you."

Davis nodded. Caressing Shirley's head, he saw that Shirley was the most joyous that all three of them survived.

"You better stay away from her." If Shirley wasn't pregnant, he would allow her to interact, but there's no telling what Myria would do. After all, Shirley was already pregnant for seven months. Only two months were left, and in this time frame, the third trimester was where she would become even weaker.

There was Isabella too. However, she was way behind, only being three months pregnant.

"Mhm~" Shirley's pursed her lips as she complained, "I know Myria will not harm me. She's not a person who will deign to kill innocents, much less an unborn. Even better, I can help you cooperate with her as you wanted."

Davis felt tempted, but he shook his head, "Even so, stay away from her. You can communicate through a projection if you want."

"Fine."

Shirley could only agree helplessly before she glanced at Myria's sleeping figure. A teasing curve appeared on her lips, "I've never seen her so vulnerable. She looks cute rather than glaring and cold."

"Heh, fainting in front of a pervert like me two times, Myria has huge guts or believes that I wouldn't do such a thing." Davis sneered.

"Of course, you wouldn't do such a thing."

Evelynn grabbed his arm suddenly from beside, sweetly smiling as she pushed her big breasts against him while looking at Ellia.

"Should I seal her with my hex?"

"No need."

Davis shook his head.

Leaving her Essence Gathering Cultivation and Body Tempering Cultivation unsealed was a sign of goodwill from him, allowing her to defend herself. He saw Myria naturally understood that when she woke up after fainting, so it was up to her to break that goodwill or not, and so far, Myria chose not to, not using her cultivation after she woke up.

"Are you going to keep her here?"

"There's no other way."

Davis could only helplessly shrug.

He wanted to use the remnant tomb of the Blazing Thunderlight Kirin to host Myria. However, he already plundered Peak-Level Spirit Stone Vein Cores from it and used more than half of it, procuring so many resources with the help of All-Seeing Emperor, so there's nothing he could do other than use it as an ordinary cage which Myria could easily traverse if she so wished.

It was more useful if he treated Myria better since she agreed to cooperate, and that's why he brought her here. Can't be too defensive and can't be too aggressive, making him feel like he should find the right balance if they were to truly cooperate.

"You all stay in the Purple Guest Palace for the time being. After a few days, whatever misunderstandings Myria and I possess should naturally be cleared."

Davis wryly smiled, not believing his own words.

"Alright."

Evelynn didn't retort. She let go of his arm and began to inform the others faithfully. Looking at her, Davis felt like embracing her tonight. Abruptly, a hand grabbed his chin and moved it.

"What are you looking at? Look at me~"

Unfortunately, he got caught staring at Evelynn's butt when Shirley coyly spoke as she pecked at his lips again and flew away and returned to her sisters, giggling like a fairy.

Davis watched Shirley leave as he felt the sweet taste of her soft crimson lips, almost making him want to chase her. However, at this moment, he noticed a messaging talisman fluctuating in his spatial ring.

"Emperor of Death, we've managed to locate almost all the powers that are against you."

Hearing All-Seeing Emperor's voice, Davis's brows lifted as a satisfied smile filled his expression.

"Excellent. Report to me in detail."

"First and foremost, it would be the Vast Sky Emperor Palace. As soon as they heard that you're gone, battling the mysterious Fairy Myria, I've noticed a change in their movements and their subordinate powers, and I presume that it shouldn't be anything good."

"Figures, who else?"

"There's the assassins who have been regularly invading the Alstreim Family Territory. We've identified them as the remnants of the Poison Rift Valley, Blood Reaper Underworld, Infernal Lightning Palace, and the Deprived Hymn Abode. I've marked their locations in a map, so I'll shortly send it to your eminence."

Davis's mouth opened as he silently laughed. Those idiots who couldn't do anything were actually challenging him? He thought that it would be some hidden entities, but it didn't seem like it.

Looks like removing the head wasn't enough that he had to cut off the limbs as well.

Anger surged within his heart, but he suppressed it and asked.

"Who else?"

"There's none. However, from your recent actions in the New Era Battle Arena, I presume that the Emperor Sword Sect's Shard Family can be deemed as your enemy. However…"

"Go on."

"They've just specifically targeted the Jade Lotus Valley and attacked them. However, it seemed that the Shard Family's Ancestor died."

"What? Who killed him?" Davis became pleasantly surprised.

"Fairy Ivy Aries killed him. However, it seemed that she expended her energy and was forced to hide in the Poison Rift Valley. My sources tell me that she threw herself into the rifts in order to survive the onslaught of Emperor Sword Sect's ambush."

Davis blinked before he asked.

"Is there anything else?"

"Nothing else is there for me to report, your eminence."

"Alright."

Davis kept the messaging talisman inside his spatial ring before a grin couldn't help but appear on his lips. This was what he was waiting for because he could start cleansing them from this world! As for the evidence of these powers working against him, the All-Seeing Emperor would take care of it, but at his level, he doubted that he needed them.

The only gripe was that Ivy Aries went missing inside the rifts, her life, and death unknown.

While he wondered if it was possible to save her, he saw Evelynn communicating with a messaging talisman at this moment. When he listened to her conversation, it seemed that it was from Yotan.

Their conversation ended, and Davis approached her.

"What's going on?"

"It seems that…" Evelynn began to explain.

Apparently, after the New Era Battle Arena ended, the people decided to return to their powers. However, the Emperor Sword Sect that had previously left used this to their advantage and ambushed the Jade Lotus Valley's returning entourage.

The Jade Lotus Valley had specifically passed through the Dual Lotus Manor Territory, Burning Phoenix Ridge Territory, Soul Palace Territory, and the Poison Rift Valley Territory to avoid the Emperor Sword Sect but they ambushed their path.

However, if it were just them, it would've been easier to defend, but they also got attacked by assassins from the wicked path, ultimately encumbering them a lot.

Davis was astonished to hear the collaboration between the Emperor Sword Sect and those assassins who had obviously come from the Poison Rift Valley. It was unknown if those assassins were hired or if they were working together, but considering the Shard Family's atrocities, he was more inclined to believe that these assassins were working together with the Shard Family.

Nonetheless, a big battlefield broke out, and Ivy Aries displayed her full prowess, repelling the Emperor Sword Sect and killing Ancestor Shard while allowing her sect members to leave safely to the Jade Lotus Valley. It seemed that her Valley Master was also there with her, and together, they escaped into the rifts of the Poison Rift Valley Territory.

As a result, there wasn't a single causality in the Jade Lotus Valley, but there were many in the Emperor Sword Sect who then returned and holed up in the Emperor Sword Sect.

This was Yotan's account of the Jade Lotus Valley's encounter. It seemed more detailed than what the All-Seeing Emperor told him, meaning that Yotan could've been watching this encounter personally while hidden in the shadows. However, he didn't blame her, considering that she was powerless to help with her current prowess.

"I apologize. I had my eyes on the Four Great Righteous Sects, monitoring if they were up to something."

Abruptly, Lea, who was silent all this time, opened her mouth.

"It's not your fault, Lea." Davis shook his head, "Ivy Aries even bragged that we wouldn't be able to do anything against their Guardian Lotus, but it was a pity that they were ambushed before they could make it back. We couldn't do anything about this matter, but there's no need to worry. It's not like I don't care about her life and death personally, but it would be a shame if she were to die since she's Old Man Garvin's descendant."

Lea blinked. So Davis didn't have his eyes on Ivy Aries?
