Divine Emperor of Death

Chapter 1797 - To The Spirit Lands

Davis cast a sharp look at Zestria.

However, he didn't blame her as he could understand her thoughts of wanting her friend to live a good life and turned to look at Bylai Zlatan, who possessed an imploring look on her face.

He didn't know why exactly she was here but could still think of a few things, the worst being backstabbing him while he was cultivating by taking his women hostages with her power.

Bylai Zlatan bit her lips as she was gazed at by all who were present, and it constituted an enormous amount of pressure. Feeling the silence overwhelm her, she couldn't help but say again.

"I'¦ I want to regain my freedom. Let me work for it..."

"Applaudable." Davis nodded his head, "However, you do understand that your cultivation base is sealed, right? How do you plan to protect the others? Could it be that you want me to release you outside that you can backstab me anytime you want?"

"I-I won't do something like that'¦!" Bylai Zlatan shook her head as she placed her hand on her bosom and declared, "Not only is it despicable, but it's unworthy of my name!"

"Your family name, Zlatan. Is it even worthy anymore?"

"It may not, but my name, the name I was born with, Bylai, certainly wouldn't become stained like the Zlatan's..." Bylai Zlatan spoke with conviction as her back straightened.

'That's going to be stained by him at this rate...'

Mo Mingzhi silently pursed her lips from the side as she thought while Davis looked that Bylai Zlatan's prideful self was still intact.

To be still able to take pride in her name isn't something a slave would manage to keep. However, it wasn't like he tortured her, so he didn't find this surprising but let her remain a bit carefree like a hired maid.

Nevertheless, he admitted that he was a bit shorthanded with most of his powerful women remaining here. The spirits he was going to face would be at his level. Therefore, the more powerful people he brought, the better it would be. If he wasn't pressed for time, he would've first gone ahead, improved himself, and then brought his wives to make them powerful in a leisurely manner.

However, he didn't have time for that.

Bylai Zlatan was at Low-Level Martial Overlord Stage, but he could see that her foundation had stabilized a bit by now, returning her prowess to two levels higher. With her Golden Dragon Blood powering her, she could certainly defend against many miscreants or rogue spirits that might try to harass his women.

From Iesha's words, spirits were also treated like human women as sexual slaves. For one, since the female spirits can die from pregnancy, the human slaves became outlets for their lust.

This biological imperative of lust didn't seem to change in any race he had seen, causing Davis to wonder if this was heaven's handiwork to maintain some unknown kind of balance.

Still, Nadia and her doppelganger were of utmost importance, and removing her from her post would bring confusion to the Emperor Beast Stage Magical Beasts present here. On the other hand, Lea Weiss wanted to use her avatar as the Sect Master to create an image that she was present in the Burning Phoenix Ridge so no one would dare to attack them.

After all, it was now public knowledge that her prowess was two levels higher after the massacre she committed in the wicked path.

Davis agreed to Lea Weiss's request and let her take care of her sect while Isabella's avatar was studying, and Evelynn's avatar wanted to explore the Poison Rift Valley.

Therefore, he only had Eldia as the strongest protector. Iesha and Zestria were the secondary protectors, but he felt that it wasn't enough and would have to make do with something else that he could find on the way but with Bylai Zlatan requesting to take her with them, he felt agreeable.

As far as he knew, her history was clean. The All-Seeing Towers had recorded the deeds of high-profile characters, and Bylai Zlatan didn't seem to have a stain of going back on her words on anything she did. Since there was no precedent, he nodded.

"Alright, I'll take you with us."

"Bylai thanks your eminence."

Bylai Zlatan instantly bowed as she excitedly trembled.

She didn't think that she would obtain the permission to go with them this easily as she imagined that his women would interfere. However, no one interfered, making her feel grateful.

"However, if you were to move suspiciously, I'm going to kill you without asking a question. Do you understand?"

Davis's voice coldly echoed.

Bylai Zlatan's heart shook, but she smiled, "I'm perfectly aware of how no one could escape from you, Emperor of Death. It would be utterly foolish of me to do anything against you. Therefore, I would like to say that you can rest assured."

"Unfortunately, there are daring people like you out there who wanted to test my limits, so I couldn't be too sure..."

Davis narrowed his eyes before he looked into the distance.

A white-robed silhouette appeared in everyone's view before it became more visible, revealing a woman who wore a white veil and looked voluptuous under her tight robe but still managed to come off as pure with her elegance.

"Palace Master, I'm here as demanded." She clasped her hands and bowed towards Davis.

"Good, Yotan." Davis nodded with a smile, "You have only one task. We're going to venture into the spirit lands, and all you have to do is protect my women over here."

Davis pointed to his side before stating, "If you manage to make sure they are all uninjured in this journey, I'll reward you with two Emperor-Risen Stargaze Radiance Pill, more than enough for you to step into the Mid-Level Emperor Soul Stage within a few years as long as you take the pills at the right moment."

Yotan's gaze shook, and probably even her expression behind her veil. However, she suppressed the trembling before she bowed again.

"Yotan will do anything to make sure they stay safe, Palace Master."

Davis nodded as he released a breath. If he had known that Bylai Zlatan was coming, he wouldn't have called Yotan, but since she came, there was no need to send her back. He could use an additional helping hand.

Before long, they bid farewell and headed towards the Poison Lord Villa Territory and accessed the spatial formation connected to Earth's Wharton Basin. Since he didn't trust Bylai or Yotan that much, he limited their vision with soul force.

The others who hadn't come here before thought this was a mini-realm and were astonished by the number of mortals living in this place.

Mo Mingzhi explained this was her home and reminiscence, making the others curious. However, she didn't say anything about Davis's previous life.

Nevertheless, they quickly made their way to the Algerian Megaliths and activated the spatial formation at that place. Anyone below the seventh stage couldn't enter these special locations, so Davis used his soul force to cover Mo Mingzhi and Fiora, and it surprisingly worked even though he expected it.

The spatial formation devoured them and spewed them out in the Inferno Spirit Chamber Territory.

Once they all reached the other side together, some experienced the lag from the spatial tunnel and felt dizzy, but Davis felt Evelynn trying to see with his eyes using the ability of her third eye, and he let her do so.

'How possessive'¦'

He couldn't help but imperceptibly smile at her actions but was still amazed by her prowess. How could she still have a connection with him when they were so apart in terms of distance?

Her mystical third eye was wondrous to him.

They were a bit into the underground, where it led to a cave that they had to fly out. When they appeared outside, Davis spoke.

"Alright, folks. I've always been cautious and avoided trouble but not anymore as I'm going to look for troub-"

"Ahaha! Look what we have here! An ice spirit!"

"Third brother, we really hit the jackpot!"

"'¦?"

Davis turned to look around and saw two flaming Spirit Supremes, Eight Stage Spirits, on their way from a hundred kilometers away. Within a few moments, their bodies turned into a fiery tornado as they arrived before their group.

He couldn't help but purse his lips in annoyance. He hadn't even taken a step after exiting the underground palace, but they were already found out and came looking for...

"Seems like you don't need to go searching for trouble, Davis."

Iesha uttered as she moved towards the front while the two flaming Spirit Supremes finally arrived in front of her. In the distance, another bunch, around a dozen Spirit Supremes, seemed to be on their way as they sensed the commotion.

Still, the two who were present rigidly had their eyes on Iesha while Iesha equally looked at them with a cold sharpness.

Their appearance was quite airy instead of a solid body like Iesha's, but it could also be because they were using their fiery powers to guard themselves. They wore red sleeveless robes, and their hair didn't seem like hair but was blazing with tiny wisps of flames instead.

Despite their terrifying appearance, Davis's brows couldn't help but twitch as they sounded like bandits, but then, it seemed that they really hated Iesha that they looked at her with pure disgust but also lust.

"Your ice is nothing in front of so many of us. Don't worry. We'll slowly melt it with our passionate fire..."

The so-called third brother cackled as his face turned into an evil visage.

Davis knew that these ice spirits and fire spirits hated each other due to their elemental difference, but'¦

*Whoosh!~*

He abruptly arrived before that spirit called third brother and grasped his fiery face with his bare hand, clenching it with force. At the same time, intense flames tried to turn him into ashes as it engulfed him, but then a crack echoed as Davis broke the spirit's skull.

Blood splashed out from the head as it stained Davis's palm and what came out along with the red-white paste was a tiny octahedral-shaped crystal the size of a common pill. He grabbed it and inspected it with a smile on his face, knowing that it was none other than a spirit core before he turned to look at the other dumbfounded fiery spirit.

What did their hate against ice spirits have to do with his woman?

"I'll kill you if you don't apologize-"

"Bastard! Die!"

The other fiery spirit went berserk as flames blazed all over his body, engulfing the surroundings as he pounced on Davis with an enraged visage, his hands reaching out towards Davis's face.
