Divine Emperor of Death

Davis soared through the skies in a jade-pink flying boat. The hull had two wings, seamlessly carrying him as it pierced through the air without any resistance whatsoever, as though it was a fish swimming in the fabric of space.

It was a High-Level Immortal Emperor Grade Flying Boat, having immense defensive capabilities. Naturally, he obtained it from one of the many heavenly geniuses he caught and looted them clean. He didn't know who it belonged to as this flying boat seemed to be some debaucherous boat as it had some suspicious rooms, but it didn't matter because it all belonged to him now.

Of course, he was the only one sitting on it since he knew powerful assassins or even some powers could attack this boat, causing severe damage even with an impact. This can be very dangerous to existences that can't withstand the impact.

However, without encountering a single foe, he made it back to the Aurora Cloud Gate's Domain, making him blink.

As soon as he was near the gates of the sect, he was quite surprised.

'Seems like no one wants to deal with me…?'

Davis's lips curled. If he didn't have Calypsea, perhaps things would've been different.

Not only would they have to be careful of his trump card, which he almost revealed when battling Wicked Tamer Jaxon Harrow, but they would also have to be careful of Calypsea as well, as her power was almost par with an Aurora Cloud Gate's Guardian.

And to most people, even Ancestors of other powers, they have never met the ridiculously strong Guardians of the Aurora Cloud Gate. Those who might have laid eyes on them were either inheritors of the Candidacy or the ones who might have ancient records of the Aurora Cloud Gate.

They couldn't touch his family, who were in the Aurora Cloud Gate.

They couldn't touch him, knowing there would be a calamity if they failed to end him.

Naturally, the better option would be to wait and see, waiting for an opportunity as a cultivator does.

With a leap, Davis got out of the flying boat and absorbed it into his spatial ring.

He entered through the gates openly, still feared by many disciples as he made it to the island and landed back on the island he once owned.

*Whoosh~*

Schleya reappeared while the Reaper Soul Legion went on their knees to welcome back their Legion Master, the Emperor of Death.

"Yotan, have there been any changes or suspicious activity going on after I left?"

"Reporting to Legion Master. There's no changes or suspicious activity going on in or outside the island after you left."

Yotan spoke in a confident voice, causing Davis to nod as he knew the Aurora Cloud Gate has mostly cleaned or exiled most spies, leaving behind only a few who hid deeply and may never reveal themselves, probably even live their lives as a member of the Aurora Cloud Gate until their life ends as they were essentially safe here.

"But outside the Domain, news that Legion Master destroyed thirteen branches of the Soulsteal Pearl Temple, Oracular Reaver Abode and the Malevolent Blade Hall is spreading like wildfire. I'm delighted that you returned to us safely, Legion Master."

"…"

Yotan's voice was full of pride as she smiled behind her veil. The relief in her voice was lovely to hear, making him look at her with a different kind of emotion.

"Do you still remember what I said back in the banquet?"

"…?"

Yotan pursed her lips, thinking hard, but she couldn't tell what Davis was pointing at as she had participated in many banquets. She couldn't think of anything that was related to the current situation.

"Forgive me, Legion Master. If you can enlighten me, I would be grateful."

She lowered her head, causing Davis to feel strange.

Why does Yotan actively estrange herself or maintain such a formal relationship with him? It gave him no space to flirt.

But before he could say anything, Davis blinked as he saw a blue-robed woman fly towards the exit. However, the direction she came from was none other than the mansion where Evelynn and the others were.

"Stop."

Davis took a step forward and abruptly appeared in her path, blocking her from the exit.

"A Level Four Immortal Emperor. Who are you? What are you here for?"

He coldly asked, inclining his head as he glared at her.

The woman before him wore a red veil while her blue robe had dark lighting patterns. However, looking closely, he saw she had the emblem of the Recruitment Department etched in her robe.

"So you're the Emperor of Death."

The woman didn't seem scared as she opened her mouth, even seeming to have some courage as she didn't avert her gaze from his cold gaze, "I'm a High Elder of the Recruitment Department who had to look after registering your father as a disciple of the Aurora Cloud Gate on the behest of Elder Aradiel Furiose."

"Oh…"

Davis reacted with an understanding sound before his coldness receded, replaced with some suspicion.

High Elders were nothing but core disciples and true disciples who managed to become Elders. They were not Grand Elders.

Nevertheless, since Elder Aradiel Furiose was involved, he cupped his hands towards her.

"Considering the circumstances, I thank you for accommodating our needs and helping my father settle here. If there is anything I can help with, feel free to relay it to me."

"…"

The Elder simply stared at him with her golden eyes, making him move away and gesture to the exit.

The Elder took off her gaze and continued to hover away, her feet just a few inches above the surface. Within a few seconds, she exited the island without a problem, making him look towards Yotan.

"Is she a regular here?"

"Legion Master, we already checked her background. She doesn't appear to have a suspicious history, as she remained in the Aurora Cloud Gate her whole life. However, it's possible that she's a Divergent…"

"No wonder…"

Davis lightly nodded. If she wasn't a Divergent, he didn't think Elder Aradiel Furiose would send her to interact with his family. After all, they probably had a huge amount of karmic burden as significant as the Guardians had.

Even they chose to stay out of the public view and didn't bother to control the sect unless they were absolutely needed, letting it go its course. Heck, they only responded to outsider threats, as far as he knew.

*Whoosh!*

Suddenly, a black-robed man descended near the exit, and Davis saw that it was none other than his father. He seemed to be in a hurry but abruptly stopped once he saw Davis, his expression churning before he slowed his pace.

"Davis, I see you returned. I didn't think you would be that mad for me…"

Logan smirked ever so lightly as he came forward and patted Davis's shoulder.

Davis glanced at his father's hand before returning his gaze to his father's proud expression.

Indeed, Logan had already heard the news and danced in his room that his son was such a badass. However-

"Father. You were just about to chase that beautiful Elder, weren't you?

"You-"
