Divine Emperor of Death
chapter-3868

Clara looked at Empyrean Miller Skyrend and Autarch Yulan Nazarin without averting her gaze. The two of them also looked at her, not finding any ill intent or deceptive nature as far as their perception went.

She may have deceived them by not mentioning she was traveling with the Divine Emperor of Death, but she had not lied. It was understandable that the target was her big brother, who wanted to protect her, and she reciprocated.

It was human instinct to protect one's family against every threat.

However, she was a Heaven's Warrior, but they could take a step back and say that she was young, and

"Don't be foolish." Empyrean Miller Skyrend waved his hand, "They are not innocent. They have joined hands with the Divine Emperor of Death and have publicly declared themselves to be sworn brothers with him. Even if we asked if they would like to take their statements back, they would merely smile and refuse to comment. If they cannot repent, then execution is the end they're looking for. Their execution smoking-out the Divine Emperor of Death is merely a plus. The individuals themselves will be punished without fail according to the laws set by the Heavenly Guardian Consortium."

"…"

Clara's gaze quivered, but she couldn't help but smile ever so lightly.

It seems like her brother reaching out his neck to save them was worth it considering they have not abandoned him in his name.

"Then, I, the Divine Emperor of Death's little sister, am also guilty of the crime of being related. What is my punishment?"

Clara asked without a hint of fear in her eyes.

It was as though she was daring them to punish her, causing Empyrean Miller Skyrend to be taken aback before he shook his head.

"You're wrong. The laws don't state to punish people who have relations with the Divergents. They are handled as victims and will even be rewarded if they report their location, as long as they haven't helped them in their evil deeds. Even then, reporting will slightly extricate them from the crime of helping a divergent, but this is a case of an Anarchic Divergent and his sworn brothers refuse to say a thing about him, which becomes even more severe. On the other hand, you came clean."

"Clean?" Clara's brows narrowed, "Don't say as though I betrayed my brother. I am not ashamed to have an Anarchic Divergent as my brother, for he doesn't conform to the standards of being an Anarchic Divergent. My brother is not an evil entity. He was nothing but a crown prince and somehow grew into being an Anarchic Divergent."

"I heard.' Empyrean Miller Skyrend nodded, "Someone who wasn't born a Divergent but, after being resurrected from the dead by Shirley Davis's Fire Phoenix Blood primal yin and later impounded with the title Divine, became an Anarchic Divergent. Isn't that right, Regalanius?"

"Yes."

Regalanius cupped his hands again and nodded.

He continued to explore a few matters from the moment Davis ascended to the Grand Beginnings Continent, recounting the story to the others in this hall. He had already told Empyrean Miller Skyrend and a few others as he was caught.

After all, even he was guilty of having a good relationship with the Divine Emperor of Death. However, they caught him and told him about the law, which then made him a willing participant.

However, he didn't give any falsehoods and stated it as it is.

About how the Divine Emperor of Death wasn't a person of warring nature but a person who craved peace. He gave numerous instances where he was willing to listen to reason rather than resort to violence.

About how the Divine Emperor of Death saved the hundreds of billions of people in the Grand Beginnings Continent by killing all Vacuous Beasts when he had no such need to do so.

However, he kept quiet about Myria. He didn't say anything about her. Fortunately, the Heaven's Warriors were just. They didn't go as far as to soulscour him since he cooperated.

And the best thing was— they even allowed him to say these things publicly. After all, his words might change the public's view.

He looked at them with immense respect.

Everyone looked at him in shock, not knowing there was such a story behind the birth of an Anarchic Divergent. After all, Divergents wouldn't leave any trace of their origins behind, sometimes killing their own families or the calamities they summon tend to erase their trace, leaving behind almost nothing for them to learn about their true nature.

"At least, these are the events that are true to my knowledge. If I have stated any falsehoods, may the heavens smite me. The rest would only be known by the family of the Divine Emperor of Death."

Regalanius turned to look at his student, Clara.

"He did state the truth."

Clara nodded, "My brother is not evil. You are free to end him, as the heavenly law states that Divergents need to be eliminated, but anyone who says that he is evil will have to endure my wrath. I will not allow his name to be disparaged!"

She waved her hand, her purple eyes glowing intensely as her heavenly aura reverberated in the hall.

"…"

Everyone looked at her in shock.

Even Empyrean Miller Skyrend and Autarch Yulan Nazarin were astounded.

How come the heavens didn't reject this statement?

Summoning the heavenly aura was no joke. The more the Heaven's Warriors use heavenly aura, the less approval they will receive when their statements don't align with the Will of the heavens.

Yet they could see her heavenly aura flowing out more passionately than before.

Was it simply the case of higher order physiques being loved by the heavens? If that were the case, they couldn't help but feel envious. However, they knew it wasn't the case, as there were cases of Heaven's Warriors being impeached by the organizations or even the consortium.

After all, Heaven's Warriors were also humans in the end. It was human nature to be greedy and lie in the face of benefits. Although Heaven's Warriors were less likely to be prone to this selfish nature due to their upbringing, it happens. However, people with heavenly physiques of the highest order, especially the Transcendent Truth Eyes, were different.

They cared for no personal benefits and were only interested in executing the heavenly law and maintaining order with their imperial nature. Their cold nature was second to none. They couldn't be seduced by any kind of offer and were impervious to most temptations. It was like the heavens had completely changed the nature of humans, relegating them to do their deeds, but it wasn't like they lost their humanity, as they were the strongest protectors of the human race.

They stood at the helm, protecting humanity from all unnatural calamities.

Empyrean Miller Skyrend inwardly sighed.

They were already tasked with killing the Divine Emperor of Death by the Heavenly Guardian Consortium and even the Celestial Transcendent. It would be ridiculous for them to let him leave. Even if he wasn't a threat now, a few years or millions of years down the line, he could be the reason for the end of all lives.

They could never tell and only eliminate him before he grew into something that people could no longer take. Otherwise, they wouldn't have the aura of Divergents.

"In that case, are you willing to end your big brother, as it is your foremost duty to protect the Celestial Transcendent Galaxy from unnatural disasters?"

Empyrean Miller Skyrend asked with raised brows, challenging Clara's intentions.
