Divine Emperor of Death

chapter-2341
Jerius Alstreim came to a momentous stop and shot a superficial look at them as though he was posing.
"You two have been out for almost a week. I'm truly surprised to see that you haven't encountered any trouble in these precarious times. After all, I heard the City Lord was killed by a Blue Luan Immortal from the Aurora Cloud Gate. I'm not sure what kind of power it is, but this city's officials seemed pretty scared to offend them that they targeted a few other wrongdoers instead and made an example out of them to teach the others a lesson."
"Moreover, there's a reward poster that's newly posted in the bounty lists placed all over the patrol offices and gates. It wants to know the identity of a lightning spirit and a dark-attributed wolf. My grandfather also informed me to tell you this in case you returned. He is not here at the moment but wishes for your safety."
"I see." Davis nodded, understanding that Founder Alstreim instantly recognized that poster's culprits to be Eldia and Nadia before he gestured, "By the way, it's Feng Chu and Daisy..."
Jerius Alstreim blinked before he understood."Ah, brother Feng Chu and sister-in-law Daisy. Would you mind telling me what happened to you outside? Since I'm kinda locked within, I'm bored… Aha…"
He scratched his head sheepishly, causing Davis to return the chuckle, "Aha, not so much. Just happened to gain a Mid Immortal Spirit and Late Immortal Beast. Then, see you later."
"…"
Davis grabbed Evelynn's wrist and walked away while Jerius Alstreim blinked, appearing to be absolutely confused.
Gaining a Mid Immortal Spirit and Late Immortal Beast? What did that mean?
*Rumble!~*
Thunder resounded in Jerius Alstreim's head as he suddenly realized, his jaw dropping till it reached the base of his neck.The bounty poster about the lightning spirit and the dark-attributed wolf… his grandfather wanting to warn Davis to be careful… the information about Davis gaining a Mid Immortal Spirit and a Late Immortal Beast… although didn't match due to the discrepancy in prowess, he couldn't help but think that they were interconnected somehow!
Otherwise, it didn't make sense for Davis to utter such a thing with a smug expression on his face!
Wasn't it just around ten days since this guy supposedly entered the First Haven World? How underneath the heavens did he already surpass the Alstreim Family's collective prowess!?
Jerius Alstreim's brain trembled. By the time he looked back, that person had already disappeared with his wife.
'Grandfather… I think I can fully understand your emotions of wanting to favor him over me, much less hand over the fate of our family to him...'
He couldn't help but reel in wonder, pondering what the future held for them.
Davis returned to his mansion. It wasn't empty because there was his entire Reaper Soul Legion was practicing cultivation here.
There were fifty-one members in the mansion. As for the three Legion Captains Praezen, Lightsky and Starlily, they were inside the Nine-Treasured Immortal Palace, enjoying the sped-up time that helped them cultivate better and faster.
Due to the limit of thirty-three people excluding him and Lereza, he could not accommodate everyone in the palace. Otherwise, he would've already brought the entire Reaper Soul Legion inside.
Nonetheless, as he walked past the hallway, many rushed out and swiftly fell to their knees, displaying immense respect towards him.
Davis noted their progress and nodded satisfactorily.
They were all at Peak-Level Emperor Soul Stage, possessing King Sigils that allowed their prowess to be three levels higher. This was all due to his aid of providing them with diluted Vigorous Heptagonal Emperor Soul Pills that pushed their cultivations forward at a greater rate.
Since they had peaked their Soul Forging Cultivations, he had them start increasing their Essence Gathering Cultivations and Body Tempering Cultivations. To enhance these two cultivation systems, he had them absorb diluted Crystal Peak Essence Symbol Pills and Purged Peak Martial Radiance Pills.
Since these two pills allowed for breakthroughs instead of allowing them to comprehend Laws, it was just right for them. After all, their concentration was on Soul Forging Cultivation and not the other two cultivations. Therefore, he had them race through to reach the peak in all three cultivation systems.
Furthermore, he was also thinking of having them obtain Emperor Sigils at the very least since they were his army, but that was for another day and also depended on their work.
Nonetheless, he asked them if anything had happened while he was away, and a black-robed man stepped forward to answer.
"Reporting to Legion Master. My name is Kris Fang, one of the Legion Vice Captains of the First Division. In your absence, Ancestor Cornelia has visited a few times, intending to meet you. Other than Ancestor Cornelia, Founder Alstreim Windstorm also visited a few times."
"I see."
Davis pursed his lips before he nodded his head, "Cultivate harder. Don't lose out to the Legion Captains above you or the Soul Warriors below you, as none of the positions are permanent. However, there should be no foul play while every result should be based on your talent and resources allocated."
"Yes! Legion Master!"
Kris Fang had his hands clasped tightly together as he knelt while Davis walked past him. The others also heard what their Legion Master said, which caused their eyes to brighten. If they performed better, they should be able to take a higher position, but it would depend on whether they cultivated harder while their talent helped them reach above others as they were all allocated the same amount of resources according to their positions.
Davis and Evelynn then wiped their disguise, restored their robes, and entered the Nine-Treasured Immortal Ordeal Palace.
As soon as Davis entered, his eyes widened. His expression seemed to freeze in time, while Evelynn also appeared the same.
On the other side, a few people also stood stunned.
However, there were small, cute versions of themselves actually standing on the surface.
"Dada…"
One of them moved their tiny lips with a childish voice, causing Davis to kneel as he spread his arms, "Eterna… Celestia… your father's back..."
Instantly, Eterna's big eyes blinked before she ran towards Davis with all her might as her small legs moved while Celestia, who seemed slightly hesitant upon seeing him, ran across as she tried to race her elder sister with unstable steps.
"Dada!"
It wasn't long before they crashed into his embrace, causing Davis's arms to wrap around their tiny frame. They were so fragile, causing him to hold them as gently as possible, but he had his eyes closed because he couldn't believe that they had grown from infants to toddlers during his absence, even though he knew that would be the case.
Most of all, he couldn't believe that they still recognized him as babies easily forget.
His heart couldn't help but overflow with affection while Evelynn also knelt down to caress Celestia's head, causing her to possess a scrutinizing look over who it was.
To Davis's front, two figures appeared.
Isabella and Shirley placed their hands on their mouths.
Due to the time difference, it had been three months since they had seen Davis. Their eyes couldn't help but turn red as they saw the father and his daughters reunite.
"Welcome back, husband~"
"Hmm," Davis raised his head, keeping his gentle smile as he stared at their glazed expressions, "I'm back home."
