Divine Emperor of Death
chapter-2407

"…!"

Erin Goldsun noticed the bloody claw piercing through the air as it crashed towards him from his blind spot, its fingernails ripping apart space.

He was already onto the Oracular Reaver Abode's inner disciple, who seemed to be the weakest leader among them. However, he had no choice but to abandon his killing blow and hurriedly turn, feeling the backlash choke his meridian points as he tried to erect a defense in desperation against the crippling attack.

However, right before his eyes, a bright sun appeared as a woman threw herself before him, causing his pupils to dilate.

"Little sister!"

*Booom!~*

The two attacks clashed, and a twisting eruption of golden flames and blood energy soared across the region, covering five to ten kilometers in an instant.

The undulations receded, replaced with the ugly sight of Erin Goldsun and a sneering crimson-robed man. However, both of their eyes couldn't help but turn shocked at the sight of the woman being still alive.

What's more, a brownish-golden barrier appeared in front of her, seemingly protecting her from the crippling claw the crimson-robed man sent.

"Little sister!"

Erin Goldsun called out once again as he quickly appeared beside her and wrapped her unconscious figure into his arms before his head swiveled and gazed at the white-robed man who appeared.

'So she was his little sister...'

Davis didn't expect that and felt a bit embarrassed about assuming the wrong relationship, but her actions couldn't help but remind him of Clara, whom he missed as he hadn't seen her for a long time. He knew for a fact that she would've done the same thing for him as she was protective.

However, his expression became cold as he could only wish that she would remain the same after she entered the Immortal Stage.

Space trembled as he raised his hand, his fist wide open as he unleashed a palm towards the crimson-robed man like swatting a fly.

"You-"

The crimson-robed man's two slanted eyes shrunk to tiny slits as blood energy overflowed from him and seeped into a thick wall, trying to block the massive palm that was on his way.

At the same time, he took out a life-saving talisman and unleashed it. It was a barrier at the Early Immortal Grade, the lowest of the low, one that could be used in this suppressive realm.

*Booom!~*

The blood wall that transformed into a palm was shattered, and the barrier crumbled, causing the crimson-robed man to be sent tumbling across the ground as he crashed onto it.

"…!"

The top geniuses of the five remaining powers, including the Goldsun Family people, couldn't help but turn shocked.

"Your sense of danger is not bad."

Davis commented with some disinterest as he turned to look at the assassins. However, his brows narrowed as he couldn't sense the Ghost Tear Hall's assassins. They weren't here.

Had they gone ahead?

"Who are you? State your name!"

Another crimson-robed man demanded. He seemed to be from the Bloodcloud Family that he had no idea about. However, he could sense a vague amount of bloodline pressure from him as he sensed his undulations. It went the same for the crimson-robed man he palmed across.

However, Davis didn't seem to open his mouth but raised his fist instead as earthen undulations emerged from his body, concentrating on his knuckles.

"You dare attack our Bloodcloud Family again!? Big brother Gerard, quickly flee!"

That crimson-robed man's expression contorted before he suddenly exploded into a blood shower that concentrated into a mass of blood, his flesh squirming as they shot towards Davis.

Davis's expression fell. What kind of disgusting technique was this?

He couldn't help but quickly swat the cosmic horror with his hand as a golden palm erupted out of his hand and struck the squirming flesh as his arm swung in an arc.

*Boom!~*

His golden palm struck the flesh, crushing it into a flat mold as it sent it flying right at the assassins.

"What!?"

They were too stunned to react, at least some of them.

*Bang!~*

Instantly, two of the twelve assassins were crushed under the weight of the squirming flesh, and the moment it latched onto their body, it dissolved right into their body, devouring them from within.

"Ahhhh!"

'Oh, that was a sacrificial technique…?'

Davis saw that Gerard Bloodcloud's subordinate had turned into a bloody mass of flesh and wasn't returning to his original form. Instead, he kept devouring his two victims and kept growing as a mass of flesh. The sight of it was extremely disgusting, but he also came to understand that this was like a savage beast that purely acted on instinct.

That man was no longer alive.

*Whoosh!~*

The remaining assassins quickly tried to escape as they spread out in all directions.

However, Davis didn't follow them.

Instead, the three powers who received his aid finally reacted.

"Capture Gerard Bloodcloud and his subordinates!" The white-robed man called Farle Lumin waved his hand and commanded.

However, he himself directly shot towards Gerard Bloodcloud, who was injured and captured him with a light rope that swept out and bound his body, wrapping him tightly.

"That's not him." However, Davis lightly warned, causing Farle Lumin to react instantly.

"You think you can escape?"

His light rope clenched and crushed a blood doll, whereupon it exploded into a fountain of blood. At the same time, his brilliant light rope stretched like it had no end, piercing through the earth and carving out a trench before a crimson figure was pulled out.

"Damn you!"

Gerard Bloodcloud cursed and let out a bloodcurdling scream as he ripped apart the brilliant light rope. At the same time, a storm of blood tendrils composed of extreme blood energy erupted out of his body, but before it could manifest, his pupils dilated as he saw Mo Tian appear before him and unleash a fist.

"Pui!~"

He spat a mouthful of blood that he had condensed to erupt with his ultimate move, only to be struck in the dantian and have his entire body tremble in pain. His sight became blurry when an abrupt knee to the chin sent him flying and spinning like a kite that had its strings cut.

"His spatial ring is mine."

Davis displayed a crimson ring as he kept it within his sleeves while Farle Lumin raised his hands in surrender.

"Friend, I don't want it."

Davis perfunctorily nodded, causing Farle Lumin to glance at him once again as he took a good look, wondering who under the heavens this person was before he turned to look at the others.

Of his people, two had died while the Obsidian Crystal Turtle's Blackryst Family had one casualty. It was cause for sorrow.

As for the other Bloodcloud Family members, they were successfully apprehended by Wyther Blackryst and Erin Goldsun's party, causing him to let out a smirk.

"Now then, how dare you idiots try to bury us here and blame it all on the assassins? We'll make sure we reveal this hypocrisy outside and publicly execute you all if your powers wouldn't compensate us."

"…"

Davis had thought that this fellow was inclined to righteousness from his actions, but it seemed like he was more pragmatic instead.
