Divine Emperor of Death
chapter-2835

As Davis opened the gates, he was slightly stunned as he looked at the Golden Crow Clan's Patriarch along with his wife whom he saved, El-na Goldsun.

"Many thanks for saving me, Apothecary Mo Tian." El-na Goldsun bowed, her face still appearing pale.

"It was not a problem... but you should stay in rest for a few more days at the very least."

Davis answered, and then his gaze fell on the two people who were behind the Golden Crow Clan's Patriarch.

They were none other than Erin Goldsun and Shea Goldsun, the former embarrassedly waving his hand towards him while the latter still had her head lowered.

"You should know why I'm here, brother Mo Tian."

"You hold me in such favor, Golden Crow Clan's Patriarch." Davis shook his head lightly, "I don't deserve such an endearing way of being addressed by your eminent self."

"What are you saying, brother Mo Tian? Considering your current prowess, you might very well surpass us old men in the future. You are just young. You will eventually catch up to us, ahaha~"

The Golden Crow Clan's Patriarch heartily laughed, causing Davis to invite them inside, as it would be too inadequate of him to make them stay outside any longer. Besides, just as he thought that he must find another way to get into the banquet, the Golden Crow Clan's Patriarch visited him, making him feel that he could still have the other party invite him somehow.

It was his chance!

As he took them inside, Panqa and Lanqua also came to help him make things comfortable for the Golden Crow Clan.

Seeing this scene, Davis could only inwardly sigh that these twins were sincere in wanting to become his women, but... he could only shake his head inwardly as even if he made it somewhat clear that he wasn't interested, they were still trying to please him.

To them, it may be a challenge, but to him, he was just feeling bad at this point.

While Panqa and Lanqua served them refreshments as they sat over a table, Davis cupped his hands.

"To what do I owe the pleasure, Golden Crow Clan Patriarch?"

Panqa and Lanqua swiftly left, not remaining to hear the details. Just as they left, the Golden Crow Clan's Patriarch opened his mouth.

"Aye, just call me by my name."

"..." Davis blinked, "I don't know your name."

"Ah, that's right." The Golden Crow Clan's Patriarch lightly smiled, "I forgot that you weren't from here. From which place are you from?"

"I'd like to keep that a secret for now."

Davis wryly chuckled, causing the Golden Crow Clan's Patriarch to shake his head, "Fine. You're too cautious, but I'll entertain that on the account you saved my El-na. She is so grateful to you that she wants to say something to you."

"What is it?"

Davis asked. However, El-na Goldsun glared at the Golden Crow Patriarch with her steamy eyes before returning her gaze to him.

"It's nothing. My beloved here just want you to..." El-na Goldsun glanced slightly glanced towards the side, "... visit our Golden Crow Clan."

'YESSS!' Davis lightly smiled, "I sure do want to visit the glorious Golden Crow Clan one day, but at this moment, I'm-"

"Heh, if it's the Starlight Jade Wolf King you're worried about, then don't worry about it. One of the things he promised me in exchange for a vote in the last segment is that he would lend you to our Golden Crow Clan for a month."

"..."

Davis's expression went blank as he heard the Golden Crow Clan's Patriarch.

Looking at that, El-na Goldsun nudged the Golden Crow Clan's Patriarch with her elbow, causing him to reach out his hand and shake lightly.

"No, no. I meant, allow you to experience our culture for a month."

"Culture... I see..."

Davis's lips curled into one of agreement as he nodded. On the other hand, El-na Goldsun gently sighed, knowing that her beloved wasn't good at polite conversations. However, she knew the reason why her beloved was overly polite to Mo Tian in the first place, obviously because of her.

She weakly smiled, "Although the date hasn't been decided, the Starlight Jade Wolf King said that he would send you as soon as you agree to visit our Golden Crow Clan. How about this... we will receive you at the end of this year. Is that fine with you?"

'No, not the end of this year...!'

Davis's expressions almost twitched, his thoughts churning, "I might be busy with cultivation at that time."

Hearing his response, El-na Goldsun wryly smiled. She knew they would get rejected, considering that he rejected even the most powerful beauty that had been present here. However, Mo Tian's next words caused her to be surprised.

"However, I don't want to reject your valuable offer. How about this...? I have time now since I'm going to have to wait for my cultivation to stabilize a bit before I enter the peak, so I'm good with leaving with you two now."

"This..."

El-na Goldsun turned to look at her beloved, appearing unsure.

The Golden Crow Clan's Patriarch also narrowed his brows, "As soon as this event ends, we're going to the banquet that's hosted by the Fire Phoenix Clan and the Earth Dragon Clan. You might have heard about it."

"I do have some thoughts about that banquet. In fact, I might even be interested in it as it is said that Dead End might show up there since he wasn't here."

"Oh? You want to get revenge?"

Davis simply smiled, not giving an answer.

However, the Golden Crow Clan's Patriarch heartily chuckled, "Good. Your bravery also knows no bounds. I will take you to the banquet. Perhaps, if I move pieces correctly, I could even probably get the Starlight Jade Wolf King to come."

"That would be the most optimal outcome."

The both of them smiled, seemingly agreeing with this idea.

"And by the way, what do you think about our Shea? You had a lot to say about her in front of the Blazing Thunderlight Sect's Founder? You have my complete respect for that, as I didn't expect that at all."

"..."

In the end, Davis was still indeed cornered. He turned to look at her, matching gazes with her. Her golden hair and crimson eyes were beautiful to look at, but still, he shook his head.

"Shea is a good woman, but I am not the one for her since I think she deserves more. This body of mine... sigh."

Abruptly, he turned to look away, his expression becoming one of sorrow.

The Golden Crow Clan's Patriarch blinked, and the others revealed expressions of shock.

Did he mean... that he was impotent...?

"This... you are a Saint yoursel-"

Just as the Golden Crow Clan's Patriarch couldn't believe these words, El-na Goldsun elbowed him again, nudging him to be sensible.

The Golden Crow Clan's Patriarch didn't know what to say. Chances are that Mo Tian was impotent or he was a eunuch, so whatever they said might offend him. Therefore, he understood that it was better to shut up.

"I love women, but this kind of cultivation comes at a cost."

They heard him speak again, but this time, he smiled with confidence, causing them to feel as though he had already accepted this fate.

"W-We apologize if you have overstepped our bounds." El-na Goldsun lightly shook her hand, "It's just... sigh... we'll leave it to you, young ones."

The Golden Crow Clan's Patriarch also stood up.

"That's right. I'll go see the Starlight Jade Wolf King and see if I can convince him to come with us to the banquet before we take you to our Golden Crow Clan. In the meantime, please make yourselves comfortable."

The two of them hurriedly left after receiving Mo Tian's nod, but on the other hand, Shea Goldsun and Erin Goldsun remained.

He looked at Shea Goldsun, raising his brows.

"Do you still want to be with me?"

Shea Goldsun's gaze trembled as she looked at him.

"If... if you were healthy and had to choose between the Blazing Thunderlight Sect's Founder and me, would you still... choose me?"

"Oh?" Davis smiled, "Did what I said in that palace feel good to hear? Obviously, I wouldn't choose you or her. You will not be a good match for me while she is too much of a hassle."

"That's... right..." Shea Goldsun lightly smiled as her lips quivered.

"Mo Tian, I do have feelings for you... feelings that I can't get rid of. Even after receiving your answer now, there is no pain in my heart but relief because I know I'm not worthy of you... But... I was happy when you said that you would choose me over her... and felt satisfied..."

Tears began dripping down Shea Goldsun's face as she spoke, but as she tried to continue, no words came out. Only her lips remained quivering as though her throat felt heavy.

'Liar...'

Davis inwardly sighed. He could tell that the pain she felt after receiving his answer was like confirming her fears, sinking her into an abyss of solitude.

"You-"

Erin Goldsun stood up, pointing at Mo Tian as his hand trembled, but in the end, he didn't say anything, reluctantly sitting down as he looked at his little sister.

"Shea, you have received your answer. Are you still going to be fixated on him?"

"Brother! It's not like I wished to be this way either, but I can't just help it...! Healthy or not, he's the man I admire the most...! I want to be with him even if I am fated to be childless for the rest of my life!"

Shea Goldsun stood up and waved her hand before running away with her back turned against them.

*Bang!~*

The doors opened and shut down on Mo Tian and Erin Goldsun, leaving them dumbfounded.

It seemed like she still didn't wish to give up even after this whole ordeal...?

Nonetheless, Erin Goldsun also soon left the place as he chased after Shea Goldsun, leaving him seated alone, but he wasn't alone for long before Panqa and Lanqua entered the scene.

"Senior Mo Tian, did you-"

Panqa was just about to ask when Lanqua stopped her twin sister.

Meanwhile, Davis still sat there, his gaze straight as though he wasn't focused. The twins didn't disturb him either, leaving the place. It was unknown how much time had passed before Davis welcomed the next day.

In the Zyrus Family's Palace, the results of the alliance battles were out. When people saw these results, their gazes couldn't help but tremble as they turned their heads at once to look at their alliance leader for the next hundred years.
