Divine Emperor of Death
chapter-3366

"I said what I said."

Myria's voice was firm and unapologetic, not caring if she offended any of the people here or caused their feelings to be hurt if they worshiped Saintess Lunaria.

She didn't bother to repeat herself.

"You-"Saintess Luciella Valerian looked utterly confused as she stood up.

"That condition, I can try to fulfill it."

Abruptly, Davis spoke up, causing Myria to glance at him. Her brows faintly squinted as though she didn't want him to do such a thing, but he didn't look at her.

"Then you can verify if what she said was true or not by having a tea party with Saintess Lunaria. For now, it would be better if we can just trade."

"…"

Saint Luciella Valerian saw the Divine Emperor of Death forcing a trade. She was confused, but she understood the answers she sought were also within the opportunity they were already seeking.

"Try?"

Saint Alaric Valerian's lips curled, "You two have been too arrogant all this while, so I hoped that you could get us to meet her, but it seems like you can't in reality."

"It's not about me." Davis's lips curled, "Saintess Lunaria ain't free enough to see a fake jade."

"…"

Saint Alaric Valerian's eyes severely narrowed.

"Aha~" Saintess Luciella lightly laughed from the side, "In front of Saintess Lunaria, we're good as children. That's what the Divine Emperor of Death is trying to say."

"Saintess Luciella is exactly right."

Davis smiled gently, "You're as perceptive as the rumors say you are. For that very reason, if you want me to give lessons on how life energy works, I won't say no."

"That…"

Saintess Luciella sneakily glanced at her husband.

It would be a lie if she said that she wasn't interested but knew what entering tutelage under an Anarchic Divergent would mean, but most of all, it would be a slap to her husband's face.

"… won't do. I can't take advantage of your kindness, but the Luminous Genesis Orchid is all yours if you can get us the invitation we require. The amount is secondary."

Davis couldn't help but smile as he saw a devoted woman. That earned his respect more than her being a Saintess, causing him to tap his fingers a few times while seated before he took out a spatial ring and sent it flying.

Everyone narrowed their gaze as they saw a spatial ring flying towards them, causing an Ancestor to appear from the shadows.

However, Saint Alaric Valerian waved his hand, causing them to stop before the spatial ring made its way to them.

He checked it and confirmed that it had fifty billion Immortal Crystals, causing him to inwardly grumble as he didn't expect young people to have this kind of wealth.

"The fruits you gained during the expedition to the true immortal world, huh… interesting…"

Saint Alaric Valerian uttered as though he knew something before passing the spatial ring to his wife, who also confirmed the payment with a bit of shock visible in her eyes before she nodded at Davis.

Davis opened his mouth, "As you can see, the payment isn't a problem, but getting an invitation is. If I fail to get the invitation, then you two can keep the payment. Then, one of you can let me know what other resource or condition you want in exchange for the Luminous Genesis Orchid as long as it is within reasonable standards. Otherwise, I have another title I earned in the true immortal world that allowed me to have this kind of wealth easily, so I might have to rely on that."

Mu Bing was clueless, but Isabella, Tanya, and Myria couldn't help but lightly smile when they heard what he said.

"Bandit Emperor…"

Isabella lovingly muttered under her breath without making a sound as she giggled with Tanya.

"Another title…" Saint Alaric Valerian didn't seem impressed.

"The fact that you can obtain the title 'Divine' alone exceeds other titles, so I don't think anything else will top that. However, if you fail to bring the invitation, know that the price would be high because you're an Anarchic Divergent, and the price to meet Saintess Lunaria is extremely steep."

"Understood."

Davis nodded.

It seems the negotiations have reached a conclusion.

"You're our guest right now, so feel free to stay."

"No need."

Davis stood up and walked out, "I'll stay in the city as it seems less constricting."

"Don't make a mess and stay behaved."

"Alaric…"

Saint Alaric Valerian demanded, causing Saintess Luciella to grasp his hands and calm him.

The two of them had never been insulted in their lives as a Saint and Saintess of the Dragon-Phoenix Alliance, so for them to encounter a young man who's a target for extermination sponsored by the heavens, making them look like fools was something rarely anyone could take, so she was still impressed by her husband's restraint, knowing that he full well had the power to kill that woman called Tanya or her husband.

They watched them leave the hall before the Patriarchs also tried to console them but didn't know how and exited to follow the Emperor of Death, telling them that they would monitor him from making any evil moves.

As a result, they were left alone in their mansion, causing Saint Alaric Valerian to sigh and Saintess Luciella Valerian's gaze to turn sharp.

"What do you think?" He asked.

"That young man was telling the truth, and I couldn't sense any ill will or wickedness from him."

"Even your Heart Laws sides with him? That's unfair…"

He couldn't help but smilingly shake his head, "Then what about Fairy Myria? Is she really an Anarchic Divergent?"

"According to her words and emotions, that would be the case."

"Fairy Myria is a peerless beauty which even momentarily moved my heart when I promised myself to you for an eternity. If she stayed here, I could've protected her from that bastard, but-"

Saintess Luciella's gaze turned sharp, "Saint Riyal Mendez is a special kind of scum. Although I doubt the Divine Emperor of Death would need our help with how powerful he portrayed his group to be, make sure he doesn't target or provoke them during their stay here. We don't want a calamity occurring in our safe haven."

"I will."

Never having suspected to be pried on with Heart Laws, Davis and the others gradually settled in one of the guest palaces in this city.

Needless to say, it was grander than the one he was trying to build.

Regardless, Davis and the others made themselves comfortable in the hall as they relaxed while Tanya sat and rested to regain her Will back as she exhausted herself a bit.

"You didn't have to do that."

Myria finally spoke, causing Davis to smilingly look at her.

"I know. I had just cleared my debts to Saintess Lunaria, but I'm going to be back on the burner again. It doesn't matter though if I could help you seek what you wanted for so long."

"…"

Myria blinked at him before she turned to look away, lowering her head.

"I don't want to be in debt with that woman. She's a good woman, alright, but how can I say this… she's covertly cunning, and she's my rival... She's too good with Life Laws... I want to defeat her."

"Haha," Davis chuckled, "She's an old yet beautiful vixen, I know, but she's kind. Two things can be right at the same time. Everyone hides a monster in them, but I don't think Saintess Lunaria will use the debt against us."

Davis and Myria sat side by side, but at this moment, Myria moved closer to him as she slid to the side ever so lightly, leaning on him.

"Do you think… my father also had a… monster in him?"

"…"

This sudden personal question stumped Davis, but he guessed that he should be truthful about what he felt.

"He might've had. All men and even women have it. It's called intrusive thoughts, which people shouldn't act on, but the monster in them says to break free from sanity, causing such a scenario. I also have one that is currently thinking of how to entrap you on the bed and do bad things to you."

Davis raised his brows and looked as though he was going to pounce on her, causing her to slide away and silently giggle away her melancholic feelings.

"…"

Only after she left his side did he see Isabella and Tanya glare at him for being so bad to a Divine Saintess.

"Aiya~"

They pounced on him, biting his arms from the sides. It was unknown if they got jealous of Myria or protected Myria, perhaps even both, but in the end, he was the one who suffered.

"…"

Mu Bing acted like she saw nothing and closed her eyes.
