Divine Emperor of Death
chapter-835

Most members of the Towering Cloud Hall, who practiced Body Tempering Cultivation enthusiastically, were actually stuck in the Peak-Level Martial Master Stage because they were unable to condense their laws and inscribe it on their flesh to enter the Martial Sage Stage. The pain was just too unbearable! 

They would use mind-calming, body numbing pills while breaking through, but even then, their chances to break through into the Martial Sage Stage were less and decreases as time passes by. Instead, they choose to cultivate their Essence Gathering Cultivation!

After all, as they get old, their wills would be watered down by the unending nemesis known as time.

Hence, Elder Towerfall was one of their precious and desired members. Body Tempering Cultivation was their pride, and they low-key looked down on Essence Gathering Cultivators.

"Since he kowtowed and apologized, I guess he can scram..." Princess Isabella's eyes flashed as she said.

At this point, even without communicating, she had learned Davis's intentions. If he had wanted to kill, she had no doubt that he would've killed that bald Towerfall by now!

"Ahh!! Please forgive thi- eh!?" Atop his incessant cries for forgiveness, Elder Towerfall realized that he had been pardoned. However, the next words he heard made to fall into an abyss again.

"How can that be? This criminal must be made an example of! Otherwise, these lowlifes would start to think that it is easier to bully you just because you're a woman!" Davis's deep tone was that of an elder admonishing his junior.

Princess Isabella actually harrumphed and said, "Then do as you see fit!"

She was like a junior who didn't give any shit about an elder's opinion but still had the heart to listen.

It would make a scene out of a good family, but Elder Towerfall saw it as a scene from the underworld! His scalp went numb as he saw those two discuss his death as if they were judges of the abyss!

"No!!! Senior!!! Please forgive this lowly once!! Please spare my life! I only have this life! I don't need anything else!!! Take my spatial ring and everything I have!!! It even has the Auspicious Yin Bloodstone!"

"You fool! Even at this juncture, you're trying to bribe your way out!??" Davis's deep yet angry voice rang out.

Elder Towerfall's lips trembled as she hurriedly shook his head! His mind spun, "No!!!!"

"T-This... This is compe- compensation!! That's right. It's compensation for the wrongs I have done! Even my life isn't worthy, but all I have is my wealth to atone for the sins I have committed!!!" Elder Towerfall actually removed the spatial ring from his finger and placed it on his palm before presenting it as he kowtowed.

It was as if he wouldn't dare to raise his head without the spatial ring leaving his palm.

Princess Isabella raised her hand and pulled the spatial ring towards her without hesitation. It flew towards her, and she caught it in her palm before she bound it to herself without any hesitation.

Looking at the scene, Davis's deep voice rang out in disbelief, "You!?"

He looked at Princess Isabella while his finger that was pointed at Elder Towerfall shook. Even though his face was hidden, everyone could feel as if he was saying: "How am I supposed to punish him now that you have accepted the compensation!?"

However, inwardly, he was celebrating. Princess Isabella understood him the best in terms of scheming! The whole point of this farce was to milk them dry! Otherwise, he would've already killed him!

Princess Isabella knew that he had some special methods to take care of them, so her willingness to play the arrogant yet unusual and odd Young Mistress was certainly gratifying.

Killing Elder Towerfall and taking his spatial ring was also a move, but that would completely offend the Towering Cloud Hall. What he wanted was to smoothly brush this event aside and continue on with the things he had to do!

As for Elder Towerfall, he would be sure to give him a pleasant surprise when he is in the Dungeon of Repentance. He had more than one way to kill him out of sight. At that point, just who would find out the cause of death or the perpetrator!?

No matter how they searched-

'Oh... There is still that people from the mysterious profession known as Mystic Diviners. Will they be able to find me if I use Fallen Heaven to strike and kill?' Davis mused, but he wasn't afraid.

Even if those Mystic Diviners came, he would kill those Mystic Diviners instead. It was their own fault for coming to find him.

Nevertheless, the scene in front of him... it still wasn't the end...

"Hmph! You think someone like you in the countryside will have a wealth that could possibly compensate us?" Davis harrumphed and looked at Princess Isabella.

"Young Mistress, how many Peak-Level Spirit Stones is in that cheap spatial ring?"

Princess Isabella had finished binding it and already scanned it with her soul sense. She had seen Peak-Level Spirit Stones before in the Earth Dragon Immortal's Trial when she was brought to a specific hall for a chat.

In that place, it was full of treasures that opened her eyes and widened her horizon. It was also the place where she was told to be careful of Davis because he possessed an 'archaic' soul. In any case, Princess Isabella was assured that she would become the inheritor in the future if all went smoothly!

Nevertheless, after her senses fell on a small transparent container that held a blood-colored bead, she became excited. It actually called out to her. She had no idea why and for what, but she put away that thought for now and saw the amount of Peak-Level Spirit Stones that were kept in the spatial ring.

"A mere five thousand and twenty-eight of them..." Princess Isabella muttered in disinterest.

"Hmph! To not even possess ten thousand Peak-Level Spirit Stones as a basic form of compensation, are you trying to look down on us!?" Davis echoed as he raised his hand again.

But before be could lift it up fully, a panicked voice echoed, "Senior, I have ten thousand Peak-Level Spirit Stones here as compensation!"

It was none other Grand Elder Rakhgal. With his burly figure, he came flying like a square block. He held a spatial ring in his palm, and just before he could say anything, it flew away from your grasp to the Solitary Soul Avatar.

However, Princess Isabella reached out her arm like a curious cat and captured the spatial ring. She then bound it to herself.

"Mmm, not bad... I guess this would suffice... You can take that trash away. Don't let me see him again..." Princess Isabella nonchalantly said.

Davis almost cried in joy. When hoodwinking an opponent, one must know not to cross the line. Princess Isabella seemed to apparently know that! Thankfully, she didn't push it too far. If there was a hoodwinking exam, he would like to give her the certificate of an expert!

Princess Isabella nodded at the spatial ring before shooting a look at Grand Elder Rosella with a smirk, "Now then, since we won two battles, there's still the last battle for me to win. I'm the only one left on my side, so who's my opponent?"
