Divine Emperor of Death

Davis smirked at them as he appeared smug.

"You didn't expect me to survive?"

"Uh..."

Mival Silverwind's expression twitched, "You... We all saw you die that day."

He raised his hands, trying not to be offensive.

"To be honest, I completely felt that you were dead. No being can survive after having their souls destroyed. Is this due to your Life Laws?"

Davis smilingly shook his head, "Someone you don't know saved me."

"Miracles do exist, huh..."

Mival Silverwind rubbed his head with a bit of inexplicable dread towards Davis.

In the stories he read, when a person came back from the dead, they always tended to seek revenge and kill anyone in their way.

"Well, I bet you're glad that you decided to stay in the Alstreim Family."

Davis raised his brows while Mival Silverwind dryly laughed.

"I thought that we were going to face extinction, but your Nadia held ground. That little wolf who couldn't fight against Mid-Level Ninth Stage Powerhouses once actually killed peak powerhouses. I thought we were going to be safe. Then, I thought we're all going to die when the Four Great Righteous Sects comes to take the key to the Forsaken Phoenix Realm, but you suddenly rose up from the dead."

His dry smile slowly turned into one of excitement.

"Wait a minute... doesn't this mean that I'm going to get rewards!?"

"Ahaha."

Davis couldn't help but laugh at his reaction.

"Ou- Ouch! Alia, don't pinch me."

Mival Silverwind flinched as he shook from Alia Silverwind's attack to his waist.

"That's what you get for being so crass."

"Crass? This is called being honest...!"

Mival Silverwind claimed as he reached out his hands towards Alia, who then dodged.

Davis smiled at their antics before he asked.

"If I recall correctly, weren't you in the Peak-Level of Eighth Stage in Soul Forging Cultivation."

"That's right...?" Mival Silverwind became taken aback as he answered.

"Do you want to break into the Ninth Stage in Soul Forging Cultivation?"

Mival Silverwind's eyes glowed. His expression that was one of confusion, turned into excitement.

"Yes, I do."

"Haha, too honest." Davis couldn't help but laugh, "But in any case, since you stuck together in times of crisis and didn't betray the Alstreim Family, I admire your tenacity and willing to reward you as you wished."

Davis flicked his finger when a tiny jade container flew towards Mival Silverwind. The latter captured it and opened, only to see a purple-blue pill that emitted a type of aroma that instantly made his soul feel rejuvenated.

"This is..."

"That's Stargaze-Rise Emperor Radiance Pill. Swallow it, and you'll step into the Emperor Soul Stage without fail, considering that the magical beast blood within your body is at Emperor Rank, right?"

"Yes, I raised it to Emperor Rank with many resources, although I'm still far away from making progress with the bloodline limitations."

"Sure enough, I can understand that." Davis nodded as he smiled, "But it's more than enough for you to enter the Ninth Stage in Soul Forging Cultivation."

"I don't know what to say..." Mival Silverwind shook, appearing to have been deeply moved as he could tell the value of this pill.

How many Soul Emperors were there again?

Publically, there were only five or six remaining out of the initial nine, and to think that he was going to join their ranks soon...

He gazed at the pill before returning his gaze to Davis, staring at him deeply, "Thank you."

"Again, that's more than enough."

Davis nodded.

He didn't worry about giving one Stargaze-Risen Emperor Radiance Pill because he had many.

He consumed three Stargaze Soul Radiance Tree Fruits and ingredients obtained from the Astral Light Sect and the Vast Sky Emperor Palace to make three batches, consisting of twenty-four Stargaze-Risen Emperor Radiance Pills, meaning that he could allow twenty-four Soul Emperors to be born!

Of them, only two were Advanced-Tier Pills, of which he used one and kept the other with him. The other twenty-two pills were Normal-Tier, which he already gave to some people. He gave one to Yotan and another one to Mival Silverwind. Evelynn also held one with her.

Therefore, there were still twenty Normal-Tier Pills and one Advanced-Tier Stargaze-Risen Emperor Radiance Pill with him.

Furthermore, he further used a Stargaze Soul Radiance Tree Fruit, extracted its seed from it, and made eight Advanced-Tier Supreme Stargaze Radiance Pill, which caused Supreme Soul Stage's soul force to increase its prowess three or four times.

Then, he used that fruit to make four Normal-Tier and four Advanced-Tier Stargaze King Radiance Pills that increased King Soul Stage soul force to increase its prowess by two times and three times, respectively!

He gave one of the Advanced-Tier Supreme Stargaze Radiance Pill and one Advanced-Tier Stargaze King Radiance Pill to Isabella and told her to vastly increase her Soul Forging Cultivation. He would've also given it to Shirley, but afraid that she would recklessly resume her cultivation, he didn't opt to give her for the time being, at least until she can swear that she won't cultivate until she gives birth to their child.

Davis looked at Alia Silverwind, thinking that she should not be stingy and reward her individual efforts in placing formations that more or less protected the Alstreim Family from little and big threats.

He flicked his finger and sent a tiny pill container towards Alia Silverwind, causing her to capture it instinctively before her arms shook.

"What is this...?"

"That's the Stargaze King Radiance Pill, which should help your soul force become two or three times stronger, making you probably match a Soul Emperor in strength if you reach Peak-Level King Soul Stage."

"...!?"

Alia Silverwind trembled as she felt her heart skip a beat from hearing his words.

Just what kind of gift was this!?

"Why...?" She couldn't help but ask.

"For your skill in formations that aided us to stay protected."

"But, but I was already paid for it..."

Davis simply smirked.

"Just consider this as bonus payment or compensation for your future expertise."

Alia Silverwind looked quite stunned before it took her ten whole seconds to reply.

"I'm also at King Soul Stage..." Her eyes shone with gratefulness.

Davis nodded.

"That's good, but I'll warn you that consuming that pill will make your next breakthrough a bit more hard. If you don't want it, I'll just give you a Stargaze-Risen Emperor Radiance Pill as well."

"No, I want to become stronger and not subject myself to normality." Alia Silverwind shook her head.

"That's a tough path ahead, but you have a strong will that probably lasts three lifetimes. I hope you do become strong in the future."

Alia Silverwind clasped her hand as she displayed respect towards him.

"I will become strong in order to support my husband."

Mival Silverwind couldn't help but grin while hearing it, while Davis's expression became bright as he looked at his beauty arrive.

Evelynn appeared beside them at this moment before she neared Davis, nodding her head towards them while they all clasped their hands in respect, looking quite taken aback by her beauty and aura that appeared quite sinister yet noble.

"Perfect. Now that my first wife Evelynn is here, I want to ask you something, Mival."

"What is it? If it is something I know, I won't hold back!"

Mival Silverwind declared with passion while Davis nodded with a smile.

"You do know by now that my Evelynn has become a fey, an existence similar to you, right?"

"Yes..." Mival Silverwind scratched his head as he looked rather bashful, "I did hear that, but I didn't think that your wife's transformation to fey would be this beautiful. I mean, I heard that the Hex Demoness really looked like a demon from the gates of the underworld... Ah! I'm not trying to be rude but, I am quite jealous that your first wife looks vastly beautiful than my Alia and Zanna. Ouch!"

Alia Silverwind pinched him again with a rigid smile on her face.

"Hehehe~"

Evelynn couldn't help but giggle at his comment before she shook her head, remembering who caused her appearance to return to fully human except for the four spider lances behind her back. Furthermore, she became shy as she recalled how Davis changed her appearance that she still couldn't believe that it happened while dual cultivating.

She hoped that these people wouldn't ask the secret to her beauty-

"Evelynn, how did you manage to retain your natural human appearance?" Alia Silverwind suddenly asked as if she heard her thoughts, "If possible, I want to restore my Mival's appearance as well."

"...!"

Evelynn went stiff before she shook her head.

"I see. So you don't know."

Alia pursed her lips and didn't ask anymore while Davis almost burst into laughter.

"Well," Davis interrupted at this moment, "What I want to hear is how does a fey cultivate? I know less about a fey's cultivation system, so can you explain that to me in detail."

"Oh, if that's the case, then I can very well lay it out in detail."

Mival Silverwind deeply smiled as he appeared confident.

"After all, I've been to many magical beasts Territories, and feys still do exist in their ranks, sometimes in human powers as well."

"Frequently, they are thrown out to become outcasts or treated as inferior beings by both races, but I would say that if their blood is pure in a sense like your first wife whose purity or rate of assimilation is high as revealed in her clear and beautiful appearance, then feys would be the most powerful out of humans and magical beasts because they retain both advantages of the two races."

"But yes, if their blood is impure or not assimilated to the purest level, then they do retain more disadvantages than advantages, which is currently the state of the feys of our world at the moment."

Mival Silverwind explained, causing Davis and Evelynn to understand as they nodded their heads.

"As for the cultivation levels...."
