Divine Emperor of Death

"..."

Davis was in shock over this scene as he knew far better than anyone that what the Blazing Thunderlight Sect's Founder displayed at the last second was not a combination but a fusion of Fire and Lightning Laws.

Although the difficulty of this feat was not great compared to fusing Ice Laws and Fire Laws or Life Laws and Death Laws, he was still taken aback at the fact that she could conjure something like that so quickly, as though she was summoning it straight from her dantian, calmly enough as though she didn't have any trouble fusing them.

Clearly, the level of intent she had reached in comprehending Firestorm Laws was exceptionally high that her comprehension could probably compare to an Immortal Emperor, and considering that she was indeed an Immortal Emperor before going to sleep in the Heavenly Ice Stasis Valley, he didn't find it difficult to accept this matter.

What he found difficult to comprehend was... wasn't this woman supposed to be someone from the Grand Beginnings Continent? How come she was not even two hundred years old yet managed to reach this height?

'She couldn't be a Divergent... right?'

Davis was confused if she was a Divergent or a true heavenly genius blessed by all the karmic luck in the Grand Beginnings Continent at that time. But if she was the latter, how come she went fooling around, making her successors slaves to her by tinkering with the Blazing Thunderlight Kirin's manuals?

'Oh no... I think I'm starting to get interested in her...'

Davis felt a bit thirsty as he looked at her, wanting her soul essence. Her soul essence probably contained all the insights he needed to perfect his Firestorm Laws that had the heavenly properties which would make it all the more powerful.

However, he quickly lowered his gaze and shook his head, feeling that it wasn't right as he couldn't be too overly unreasonable.

'Utmost, she deserves being slapped into ruining her face and locked up for centuries for trying to control an innocent, unsuspecting successor but not death...'

He always wanted to punish her badly because he didn't have the habit of letting go of people who slighted him.

That's all he felt for her cunning tone and calculative mind, as she hadn't directly targeted him but only the ones who wanted her inheritance. For all he considered, it was an exchange of power, something that he wasn't interested in as he wasn't that desperate, but the way she went about it was also manipulating by hiding certain things was also despicable.

However, not that she had something he wanted, making it confusing for him how to deal with her.

After all, if he wanted to kill her right now, wouldn't that be because of pure greed and not bestowing appropriate punishment?

Davis always knew that there was only a fine line between the two, so he never went to target or assassinate people who did nothing wrong but had extravagant wealth that would want to make people kill them anyway.

'Well, once I see her intentions, her life and death could be decided... but I'm nowhere near her power to be defeating her at the moment...'

Suddenly, Davis realized he was too prideful to be considering this when he probably couldn't even kill her, even if he used everything in his arsenal against her, even Fallen Heaven.

But at this moment, he suddenly noticed the gasps and murmurs beside him go silent, causing him to narrow his brows and raise his head. His heart shook as he saw the Blazing Thunderlight Sect's Founder stare at him, causing everyone else to also look at him.

"Mo Tian... an exceptional man, indeed. I'm interested in seeing what you would turn out to be, but at the same time, I find it hard not to invite a potential cultivation partner like you."

The Blazing Thunderlight Sect Founder's seductive voice echoed across the palace, causing countless hearts to shake.

"After all, not only can you hold on your own, your healing prowess is on par with those unique figures such as Saints."

The Blazing Thunderlight Sect's Founder gracefully moved her hands, pointing at herself, "I, as a woman with pure destructive power, and you, as a man who could do both, complement each other well."

With a single step, she appeared at the edge of the cracked barrier and pointed at Mo Tian.

"Why don't you become mine...?"

"...!"

'No... don't you dare set your sights on me... no... don't- fuck...!'

Davis's expression was indifferent to the Blazing Thunderlight Sect's Founder's words, but he glanced in the corner of his eyes that Gawain glared at him as though he had killed his parents.

Indeed, the other people were also shocked at how the Blazing Thunderlight Sect's Founder thrashed Gawain and confessed her interest in binding her life with Mo Tian, basically slapping Gawain's face.

However, they were also dumbfounded as to how Mo Tian received the Blazing Thunderlight Sect's Founder favor.

"Apothecary Mo Tian, congratulations." Erin Goldsun cupped his hands, a wry smile emerging on his face.

"Ai~ With comprehending a fusion law like that, it is inevitable that the Blazing Thunderlight Sect's Founder would rank first in the Twelve Celestial Fairy Ranking. Young Mo Tian, to be favored by such a divine beauty, the heavens have blessed you to no end." The Golden Crow Clan's Patriarch shook his head.

"Indeed, you have hit the peak of popularity as of this moment." The Starlight Jade Wolf King couldn't help but laugh.

"Senior Mo Tian, you have my undying respect." Drake stood up and cupped his hands.

"Senior Mo Tian..."

Many people instantly started congratulating him, their expressions full of smiles flashing at him.

However, there were also other people who were full of envy and hostility as they had set their sights on the Blazing Thunderlight Sect's Founder.

Who was she? She was already set to become the number one beauty in their minds! To be receiving favor from her, it could be said that he had offended any man who wanted to court her.

Indeed, the moment the Blazing Thunderlight Sect's Founder confessed her interest in Mo Tian, Davis knew that it wasn't the problem but the surrounding hostility that would be thrown at him would be the problem.

The only saving grace was that he had the near status of a Saint, which may or may not help him, but Davis knew better than to not rely on it because, at this point, he felt that it would be better for him to reveal that he was the Emperor of Death instead as there would be less aggression overall.

On the other hand, only one person was feeling a deep sense of sorrow as they saw the person they were deeply fond of be courted.

"That's right... he should be with someone like her... not someone who is plain and weak like me..."

Shea Goldsun wryly smiled from the midst of the crowd as she looked at the two of them, tears clouding her eyes as she muttered under her breath.

She knew she didn't match him in any way, yet she had delusionally thought that she might be chosen. However, the reality of it was that they were in two different worlds was so painful that she closed her eyes but suddenly heard something that shocked her beyond compare, causing her eyes to widen.

"No, thank you."

"...!?"

Drake fell, the Starlight Jade Wolf King's expression froze, and the Golden Crow Clan's Patriarch couldn't help but blink. Numerous people's jaws dropped.

Even the Blazing Thunderlight Sect's Founder appeared taken aback. However, she quickly smiled, appearing amused.

"Is that so? Don't regret it later on, as opportunities like this only come once in your lifetime."

She turned around to look, "Gawain, do you still want to battle me?"

"..."

Gawain's gaze shook. He merely harrumphed and returned to his Obsidian Crystal Turtle Clan after he shattered the cracked barrier angrily. Nonetheless, the barrier started recondensing, but the Zyrus Family's Patriarch waved his hand, dispersing the barrier.

"Why would I regret it?"

Davis shook his head, looking as though he heard something funny.

The Blazing Thunderlight Sect's Founder was also about to leave but hearing Mo Tian's words, her lips curled as she floated towards him, appearing in front of his seat as she glanced down at him.
