Divine Emperor of Death

The Mid Immortal Stage experts knew that they couldn't possibly subdue Davis Alstreim with their prowess. After all, Davis Alstreim's reputation was already resounding as he was proclaimed to be a heavenly genius and a strong one at that.

No one dared to underestimate him, but it was precisely because of that they wanted to get rid of him before he could transform into a threat, whether it be by himself or recruited by their rival power.

But now, he gave the ascender, Davis Alstreim, a clue to protect himself before reinforcements could arrive to save him. Just how were they supposed to take him on now as the ruined monument would protect him from them, the Mid Immortal Stage experts?

Their anger couldn't help but fall on the white-winged wolf, but they didn't dare to offend the Starlight Jade Wolf Clan easily either.

"The Starlight Jade World King wants to protect me…?"

Davis raised his brows as though he had heard it for the first time in his life. His acting was so flawless that his face even possessed an expression of disbelief mixed with confusion and interest.

"Yes, yes! Please believe us!"

The wolf hurriedly nodded its head, its expression innocent but hurried that couldn't help but make Davis smile. He still didn't know the Starlight Jade Wolf King's true intent in wanting to protect him, but if it was sincere, then he made a note inwardly to make them flourish later on if he had ever made it to the top of the First Haven World.

"Who else wants to shelter me?" He lazily turned his head and questioned, his eyes falling on the scout of the Viridian Lightning Fox Clan.

However, Zanna Silverwind's power didn't seem to be responsive, causing him to quickly look away after a momentary pause.

Perhaps, Mival Silverwind and Zanna Silverwind stayed mute about his presence, afraid to be implicated. He felt that it couldn't be helped. This matter was too big to handle, and if hostile elements were present in the clan, then they would inevitably undergo soul search.

It was better for them to stay silent.

In any case, he wasn't bothered with the overall scheme of things at the moment, as anyone who wanted to harm wasn't going to meet a good end.

At this moment, a golden-robed man stepped out of the crowd, bringing himself a bit closer to him.

"Davis Alstreim, if you obediently come with us, the Earth Dragon Clan can at least make sure that no harm would befall you. Also, where is our Earth Dragon Immortal Inheritor? Where are you hiding her? Did you leave her behi- Oh, is that a Life Ring you have?"

"Precisely." Davis nodded his head, "But what do you want with my third wife Isabella?"

"Insolent! Whether the inheritor is your wife or not will be determined by the elders. The inheritor has the blood of a son of an Immortal Emperor Earth Dragon within her, and you think you can plunder her and the treasure that belongs to us?"

The golden-robed scout shook his head, "You're a Divergent who is fated to be alone, so just leave her alone. Or else, I'm afraid that you'll bring the inheritor undue harm."

"That's right." The crimson-robed man sneered and pointed at him, "Davis Alstreim, you're nothing more than a peasant of a small power who rose to prominence because you're a Divergent, and others are fools to have allowed you to grow. Don't think it will go the same way here, so I suggest that you also hand over Shirley to my Fire Phoenix Clan and beg for forgiveness. You do not deserve her."

Davis's expression turned cold.

Didn't these people know that Isabella and Shirley even had children with him? Even if they didn't know, didn't they know the story behind their struggles?

Surely, the ascenders would have coughed out every bit of information they knew about his affairs with the immortal inheritors, no?

Even then, they were trying to separate them under the banner of belonging and harm. It was one thing for the Earth Dragon Clan to reject him as they focused on power and influence, but for the Fire Phoenix Clan to separate lovers?

What was that supposed to mean? Was that person even from the Fire Phoenix Clan at all?

Anger couldn't help but swell within his heart.

"Could it be that you didn't hear what I did to the Golden Dragon Family and Fire Dragon Family that took this attitude?"

"Ahahaha! So what? You think you can take on an entire clan with many powerful immortals who could end your life with a flick of their finger? You're a million years early for that brat!"

"So you know..."

"Of cour- wait a minute. I think even a million years is too early for you. Ahahaha! Haha! You came out!"

Looking at Davis having rushed out of the ruined monument's protection, the crimson-robed man's expression turned joyful, his face transforming into a bird, no, just the side of his cheeks and forehead coming to possess red feathers while his nose and mouth transformed into a sharp beak.

He was a fey who activated his bloodline prowess right at the start, seeking to capture Davis in one move.

"What…!?"

But the moment he leaped and arrived halfway, he found that he had frozen in mid-air, causing him to become dumbfounded.

However, his eyes still lay on Davis, who walked toward him with unhurried steps. Each step covered a vast distance as space contracted before him. It caused his pupils to dilate as he saw something he couldn't comprehend heads or tails with his bird brain.

But as soon as Davis stood in front of him, he could feel the threat of death looming over him.

"You… you dare to-"

"Die."

Davis unleashed a punch that landed on the fire phoenix fey man's face, causing his head to explode into a fountain of blood. At the same time, death energy flowed out of his body like an explosion, spreading in all directions as it quickly loomed over the ruins and spread to the mountain ridges and valley entrances.

Many rays of light began to flash as defensive talismans were activated, their defensive might actually be nearing Level Nine Immortal Stage, but at the same time, the mist of death energy didn't attack them. Instead, it covered the region and caused all immortal ascendants to fall to their feet and collapse.

It was unknown if they had died or ended up unconscious.

"…!!!"

But looking at this eerie scene, many immortals were trembling from head to toe.

They hadn't seen Davis before and had never come into contact with death energy. Now that they felt it through their own skin, their bodies couldn't help but shudder in the face of it. He had actually killed a Level Seven Immortal with bare hands and caused them to become spineless.

However...

"You… release me or die!"

The golden-robed man demanded with incomparable fury. He felt safe inside the talisman that he had activated while he also knew that reinforcements would arrive any minute, so he wasn't scared into being unable to think for himself.

However, it could be said that he made a wrong choice.

Davis raised his hand and pointed at him. A strand of death energy appeared in his hand. However, it took the shape of a heart, which he crushed without a change in his expression.

"Pui!~"

That golden-robed man spat a mouthful of blood as he looked at Davis in disbelief, understanding nothing. His body simply fell over without being able to stop as the light in his eyes disappeared, proclaiming him dead to the twitching eyes of the crowd.

"My death energy is seamless yet terrifying. You were all too late in activating your talismans, so don't bother demanding or shouting curses from inside."

"…!?"

Everyone couldn't help but be shocked when they heard Davis's words.

That is to say… they were already all affected by his death energy…!?

"I'll say it for you all for the one last fucking time. Whoever wishes to harm me better have a good reason to tell your families why you vainly died for no reason. That's to say the same thing about you, assassins who wish to get some bounty from my head."

"…!"

The hundreds of assassins hidden in the shadows waiting all day and night long couldn't help but feel their hearts shudder. They thought that they were safe as they were in the distance, not disturbing the major powers, but even they had been caught by his senses.

Their hearts quickly screamed at them to run! Fly far away as possible, but the instincts they honed throughout their assassination career were telling them not to move a single finger, lest they get killed in an instant for exposing themselves out in the open!
