Divine Emperor of Death

Ancestor Xia Yun narrowed her eyes, slightly moving towards Sect Master Bing Luli to protect her.

Davis noticed it, but he didn't care. He cleaned himself up as water abruptly drenched him, and heat helped him dry up before he clasped his hands, looking as fresh as new, no longer bloodied.

​​

"I personally thank Sect Master Bing Luli for moving in to protect the people and for all the other things you had done for us. Now, please leave, or else, I can't assure you that I could keep you all safe from the wrath of the Four Great Dragon Families."

Ancestor Xia Yun stopped while Sect Master Bing Luli went 'O' behind her veil before she nodded.

"Thank you for your concern, Davis...?" She felt like she didn't know how to address this youth anymore, but she still continued, "You are right. The full force of the Dragon Families is not something my Mystic Ice Sect or I can handle. Justice may be on our side, but the strength is on their side. You must call the Four Great Righteous Sects for this matter."

"True..."

Davis wryly smiled, becoming that handsome youth who seemed lighthearted and not like the overbearing person as before.

"However, I assume that the response would be late considering that the Dragon Families might've already got my message. I can only hope that the Four Great Righteous Sects have caught the news and are arriving here as well."

"No, that would take too long, and the Dragon Families might trample on this soil and later shamelessly say that it was an accident. We don't want any of it, do we?"

"As I said..." Davis's wry smile didn't leave his face, "I doubt they'll respond soon enough. It is more likely that the Dragon Families would arrive first either way. Now please leave before you all get hurt because of my actions."

Sect Master Bing Luli couldn't help but blink with her beautiful eyelids.

After he finished speaking, he turned around and spoke the same to Ancestor Krane Parazen. As soon as he relayed his intent again, the people in the Grand Wedding Hall started leaving.

It was as if they just realized that they had insulted the Four Great Dragon Families, running for their lives, except in a low-key manner as if they were leaving properly with an attitude looking as if they won this battle against a peak power of the Fifty-Two Territories.

Why?

Of course, to pose for the projections that were being broadcasted throughout the Alstreim Family Cities.

Davis turned to look at his Ancestor before he bowed and clasped his hands.

"Ancestor, I'm truly sorry. I deserve a thousand deaths for ruining your marriage with Ancestor Tirea Snow."

"Child..."

Ancestor Dian Alstreim looked at Davis, feeling incredibly excited yet sorrowful at the same time.

"I'm proud of you, but you must escape now..."

"Yes, you must leave with your entire family..." Ancestor Tirea Snow echoed from the side, having the same expression as her man.

"No, I'm not leaving." Davis straightened his back as she shook his head, "If I leave, those Dragon Families Powerhouses will trample the Alstreim Family as if taking out their anger. At least, I have to get the Four Great Righteous Sects to recognize the Dragon Family's wrongdoings before I escape..."

Both Ancestors' expressions couldn't help but tremble and soften.

"Do you feel confident...? Ancestor Dian Alstreim asked.

He certainly believed that Davis always had something up his sleeves as Davis always liked to mention how he had a few methods to kill him back when they first met.

"I wouldn't say hundred percent..." Davis thought before he answered, "I at least have ninety percent confidence that I won't die and around eighty percent confidence that Isabella and I can protect you all while staying here."

"I see..."

Ancestor Dian Alstreim's eyes gleamed, believing that those were good numbers.

"However, if I escape with my family, I have a ninety-nine percent chance to stay alive, but the chances that you all live is less than five percent."

Everyone could recognize the consequences and agreed with Davis's words, but none blamed Davis for bringing this mess except a few scared elders of the Alstreim Family. They felt he shouldn't have gone overboard with his actions no matter what.

Nevertheless, their opinions were irrelevant.

"I understand, but if you feel like you have the lowest survival rate, then you must escape, understand?"

Ancestor Dian Alstreim seriously asked while Davis couldn't help but laugh.

"Actually, I love my current life more than you all think. If it comes down to that, you can find me scurrying out of the battlefield. Ahaha!"

His words brought smiles to the faces of the Ancestors, wives, and elders.

For a moment, it looked as if though more than half the Alstreim Family came together.

Quite a bit of distance away, Sect Master Bing Luli looked at them laugh in this adversity while her eyes were on Davis.

This Davis seemed to be a good person who cared about his... family, women, which she didn't know if it was good or not to have so many, but she respected a man who protects his woman.

Since Isabella didn't say anything, she felt that Davis's words were true, that they had married and the Dragon Families were harassing them while they tediously yet smartly fooled them for a long time.

Perhaps, even his own power since she could see Ancestor Dian Alstreim and Ancestor Tirea Snow's shocked expressions to his current strength.

'Should I call Myria...?'

She thought, wanting to help these people out of the kindness in her heart, but she herself knew that she could not provide any assistance other than calling someone else, which she hated to do.

'No, I cannot disturb Myria's seclusion. She told me that this seclusion is important and that she would have enough prowess to act freely in the Fifty-Two Territories if she manages to break through successfully...'

Sect Master Bing Luli bit her lips before she abruptly voiced out.

"Overlord Davis...."

Davis blinked at that title before he stopped his conversation with the Ancestor Dian Alstreim and turned to look at Sect Master Bing Luli, wondering what she wanted.

"I have a messaging talisman that connects to someone in the Heaven Gazing Sect. Do you want to use my help to call that person?"

Davis's brows shot up in surprise.

Unexpectedly, he could contact someone from one of the Heaven Gazing Sect? He could not use Mystic Diviner Aurelius's because he already enslaved that bastard. If it was someone else, he could try contacting and call for justice.

However, would he really obtain justice?

On the other hand, the people who heard were astonished but also considered another aspect.

Someone from the Heaven Gazing Sect was courting Sect Master Bing Luli?

As expected, the heavenly swans present in the world never lacked grand suitors.

However, contrary to their assumptions, she obtained this messaging talisman in another way for dealing with the Calamity Light but for mainly organizing the Nine Western Territories Young Expert Competition. She felt like she could use that person's help at this moment.

"Use her help..."

Davis was woken up from his reverie as he looked at one of his women. It was none other than Mo Mingzhi.

"Why?"

She raised her shoulders and shrugged.

"Well, if you're in trouble, you call the police!"

Davis couldn't help but widely smile at Mo Mingzhi.

True, the Four Great Righteous Sects could say to be the police force of the Fifty-Two Territories but whether they will protect them or not is another thing but altogether. However, keeping one near remained advantageous for him as the Dragon Families would hesitate to act unbridled with a witness like that nearby.

For that reason alone, he felt that they could be called.

"Thanks, Mingzhi..."

Davis reached out his hand and rustled her hair, causing her to stupidly smile over being praised. On the other hand, Evelynn, Natalya, Fiora, Sophie, and Niera looked so proud and excited to see him no longer suppress himself. He almost fully displayed his prowess, making their inner feminine feelings go crazy.

Davis wanted to share his glory with them, but it was not time for that. He turned to look at Sect Master Bing Luli, nodding at her.

Sect Master Bing Luli returned the nod before she contacted Honorable Elder Julian Kruse. She hoped that the person who accompanied him would also be there as he seemed strong.

At this moment, Mival Silverwind and Zanna Silverwind returned. Their undulations caught the eyes of many people, causing them to look at them.

"They left without making any trouble, looking incredibly afraid even after they left..."

Zanna Silverwind appeared proud before Mival Silverwind harrumphed.

"It must be because they failed to obtain Dragon Queen Isabella. What else would be so important for those shameless bastards!?"

He let out his anger before he looked at Davis, widely smiling at him.

"You never told me you became this powerful."

"You didn't ask..."

Davis returned the smile, looking smug before the both of them laughed.

"Ahaha!"

Davis stopped his laughter a few seconds later and appeared solemn.

"On a serious note, you should leave too. Honestly, offending the Dragon Families wasn't on the menu when hiring you. After all, I only wanted you two to deal with the powerhouses of the Nine Western Territories."

"True. I won't lie. I want to escape as we speak, but Alia is in the process of breaking through. I can't leave or disturb them just like that..." Mival Silverwind shook his head.

"I see..."

Davis raised his brows, not thinking that Mival Silverwind would actually be willing to stay. He could just feign that he was not part of them anymore, but he didn't seem to do it?

*Bzzzz!~~~*

Abruptly, myriad undulations fell on the Grand Alstreim City, almost as if the entire city began to tremble!

Everyone's eyes were wide in incredulity, and Davis was no exception.

They all raised their heads to look up the dome and saw about twenty-one dots in the air. All of them seem to be descending as they released tremendous and billowing waves of poisonous might that equaled Mid-Level and Low-Level Law Rune Stage Powerhouses, except there were plenty of them, numbering twenty-one in total!

"Devil Bane, my dear, to think you would actually die today..."

The seductive voice of a woman echoed, causing the entirety of the Grand Alstreim to shiver as they felt a cold chill on their backs.

This kind of energy... could it be the Poison Lord Villa!?

In the Grand Wedding Hall, while almost everyone gawked at the twenty-one powerhouses, Davis turned to look at Mival Silverwind with a nonchalant expression on his face.

"You still want to stay?"

Mival Silverwind looked at Davis and innocently pursed his lips, "Can I give your money back?"
