Divine Emperor of Death
chapter-923

Davis returned to his seclusion chamber after cleaning himself up in Evelynn's room.

It wasn't that he just instantly returned after trying to impregnate her. He spent a few hours cuddling and chatting with her before he returned to his room.

He sat cross-legged on the bed and only took a few seconds to enter meditation, perhaps because of having his mind cleared and emptied out from worries after the intimate session with Evelynn that progressed to the extreme.

Using Fallen Heaven's devouring prowess, he started to devour the soul essences that were kept beside Fallen Heaven all this time. In total, there were seven soul essences around Fallen Heaven. These seven soul essences revolved around Fallen Heaven like they were planets orbiting the sun.

He brought one of them towards Fallen Heaven and started to refine them by himself instead of relying on Fallen Heaven. The soul essence he brought possessed the shape of a bird. It was a magical beast he killed with Fallen Heaven while moving out of the Sunset Tear Mountain. This magical beast chased him with killing intent because he possessed the heavenly treasure, the Million Emerald Vines Calamity's nectar.

However, it wasn't only a single magical beast.

There were six more of them who tried to kill him. Since they came at him with killing intent, he didn't hesitate to kill them, and the harvest ended up being advantageous to him.

Even though he knew that the nectar's remnant aroma influenced them, he still decided to kill them. They were not Nadia for him to consider. She was his magical beast mount, and those magical beasts were his adversaries.

From the harvest, he obtained possessed two Low-Level Lord Beast Stage Soul Essences, three Mid-Level Lord Beast Stage, and one High-Level Lord Beast Stage Soul Essence.

Obviously, since his Soul Forging Cultivation grew, the appetite he needed to increase his cultivation also grew. One High-Level Lord Beast Stage Soul Essence was not enough for him anymore to break through to the High-Level Supreme Soul Stage. However, he additionally got a High-Level Lord Beast Stage Soul Essence from an old Twin-Tailed Dusk Wolf as an exchange for healing the Twin-Tailed Dusk Wolf's Clan Leader, Araz.

He possessed two High-Level Lord Beast Stage Soul Essences, which was still not enough, but combined with the fact that he took his time to increase his resonance with the heaven and earth energy while also having a little bit of extra juice such as the Low-Level and Mid-Level Lord Beast Stage Soul Essences to rely on, he was confident in making a breakthrough.

First, he started with High-Level Lord Beast Stage Soul Essence!

A deathly power enshrouded it and pulsated like a heartbeat. The soul essence seemed to be thinning as its edges were being scraped off as if it were being carved by the pitch-black energy. It slowly gathered into tiny strands of mysterious soul essence that nurtured his own as if he flew into his soul essence.

His soul essence seemed to assimilate, no, absorb the converted strand of soul essence in a few seconds, and this process kept occurring again and again as if it were being fed.

Perhaps, it was a week or a month. However, through his Solitary Soul Avatar's knowledge, he momentarily grasped what had happened in the meantime and knew that a week and a half had passed before he finally devoured the High-Level Lord Beast Stage Soul Essence.

He felt that it was absurd that Ancestor Dian Alstreim still hadn't come to visit his mother.

In any case, he felt himself be closer, and his soul had even started to resonate with the heaven and earth energy, a sign of comprehending the mysteries of the soul correlating to the next level, which is the High-Level Supreme Soul Stage!

Feeling more confident, he comfortably continued to refine the High-Level Lord Beast Stage Twin Tailed Dusk Wolf's soul essence. Its wolf image began to corrode at it was being continually being digested and converted by Fallen Heaven's power into something useful to the growth of his own soul essence.

A curvaceous figure walked into the Purple Guest Palace from the outside along with a black-robed figure who suddenly materialized into reality. They were none other than Princess Isabella and Davis's Solitary Soul Avatar.

Princess Isabella had changed her robes from purple to bright crimson. She looked alluring in that wardrobe, and since Davis walked behind her like a protector, he had his eyes over her swaying hips and butt, which the other party also seemed to enjoy the attention; his attention.

However, Princess Isabella's face possessed a frown. She was pissed off by a certain someone, and it was not Davis, neither was it the person who accompanied her today for her so-called use and protection.

When she went out today to tour the Grand Alstreim City with her subordinate, she was again followed by many men, especially the Alstreim Family's Young Master, Weiss Alstreim, who seemed to have no common sense or an inkling of his status when compared to hers.

She slapped him in public for his constant yapping that fell on her ears, but that didn't piss her off, but rather, she was pissed that her hand touched his despicable face, even though his face looked handsome.

The miserable thing was that even after being slapped, Weiss Alstreim acted shamelessly and rubbed the cheek that was slapped in glee as if he was touching her hand. It made her so creeped out that she had no mood to tour around the city.

Princess Isabella returned back to her room before she let go of her invisible restraints, "This is the third time I went out, but that idiot already seems to follow me around like a toad lusting after a swan. Hmph! If it weren't for the Alstreim Family, I would've forced to make him understand what kind of consequences he would've incurred by following me around."

Davis inwardly laughed as he couldn't help but remember Young Master Arashi of the Arashi Family in the Xuan Empire. He was almost punched into a meat paste by Princess Isabella for trying to harm her actively.

Although he felt Weiss Alstreim wouldn't be murdered like that, it is likely would have gotten one or two bones broken, having to pay a steep price to regenerate since Princess Isabella's martial energy that was at the Eighth Stage, Martial Sage Stage, wouldn't easily let the injury be healed.

Of course, in public, it was always like Princess Isabella was alone while he used his Dark Concealing Shroud Art to follow her around to protect her. Hence, to many people's eyes, especially men's eyes, this was the golden opportunity they were waiting for!

If they could make the Conferred Queen favor them or even fall for them, their life wouldn't be the same as the family would heavily nurture them!

"Mhm?" Davis creased his brows.

"What happened?" Princess Isabella asked.

She had thought that she had created trouble for him and felt terrible suddenly.

However, Davis shook his head and smiled with a complicated and confused expression as if there were question marks appearing on his face.
