Divine Emperor of Death

Chapter 1009 End Of The Alstreim Family“s Alchemy Exchange

Everyone watched them leave the Pill Arena in an unhurried manner. They were utterly unabated from the Alstreim Family rules as they came and went as they pleased.

Grand Elder Lloyd Alstreim blinked before he hurriedly disabled the defensive formation so that the Dragon Queen doesn't end up breaking it completely.

However...

He invited, they came, participated, won, took all the rewards, and went away.

When he genuinely realized this, he possessed an expression that edged on the border of not knowing whether to laugh and cry. His face even flushed a bit from embarrassment, wondering why he still dared to call himself a Grand Elder in front of these two monstrous youths.

However, looking at their backs, he couldn't help but think that they were indeed suitable for each other. A Soul Forging Cultivation Genius and a Body Tempering Cultivation Genius... Under the magical sunlight, just their backs alone gave him an illusory sight of them ruling the chaotic Fifty-Two Territories.

In any case, he was unable to stop them, so he imperceptibly heaved a sigh of reluctance and looked at the purple-robed woman.

All that left out was the promise that Dalila Leehan gave him, gave the Alstreim Family with just her words.

"Top Pill Disciple Dalila Leehan, I..."

"I know... I will not go back on my words..." Dalila Leehan spoke as she cut him off in a low voice as she watched Alchemist Davis's back.

At the next moment, she heaved a complicated sigh as she took her gaze away. Although she was reluctant to have completely lost, she was able to accept it in the end since she was against a monster like that. She had never seen a person like him, and was even clear that no talent like him existed in the history of the Thousand Pill Palace.

Her thoughts moved from defeating him to recruiting him instead. However, she instantly arrived at the conclusion that it was impossible.

She felt that it was a pity that he was already part of the Dragon Queen's power. She felt that she or no one could do anything about it unless Alchemist Davis changed his mind or the Dragon Queen let him go, of which both of those events came off as clearly impossible to her.

After all, who would want to let go of an alchemist of that caliber!? Definitely not her!

And who would want to let go of a superior who treats a subordinate above all, conduct tempering sessions and rewards heftily for winning!? Definitely not her!

She became a bit envious at seeing their backs because they seemed so carefree and even compatible with each other.

Grand Elder Lloyd Alstreim nodded at Dalila Leehan's words and became relaxed.

At least, he was able to secure a deal with the Thousand Pill Palace, which should decrease their losses in the next transaction! Perhaps, they might be even able to buy pills which they were restricted or unable to buy due to disputes!

He eyed Elder Belias Alstreim, who then announced the end of the Alchemy Exchange. The boisterous atmosphere began to pick up again as they cheered and hollered, and before long, people started to disperse as they eagerly talked about today's highlights.

Dalila Leehan met up with Nora Alstreim, but she felt her face burn in embarrassment. After all that talk and negotiation about splitting the nectar, she actually lost.

She felt like she owed an apology to her.

"Nora, I apologiz-"

"Don't be sorry!" Nora Alstreim shook her hands as she looked into the distance where Alchemist Davis disappeared in a complicated manner.

"He's... That's a monster... Just like his Young Mistress..."

Dalila Leehan also cast a look, pursing her lips a bit as she too agreed, "Indeed... Perhaps, we can only lament that the world we live in is different..."

Like two commoners, they looked at their disappearing silhouettes.

Nora Alstreim heaved a breath as she forced a smile, "In any case, it was obvious from the start this Alchemy Exchange was used as a tempering session for Alchemist Davis by Dragon Queen Isabella."

"And the result had been fruitful, to say the least, with Alchemist Davis miraculously managing to break into the Mature Soul Stage, becoming able to concoct King Grade Pills!" She uttered but sucked in a significant amount of cold breath as she inwardly felt the shiver when she realized the significance of a Soul Forging Cultivation Genius!

Dalila Leehan also couldn't help but break out into a cold sweat as she recalled that she now owed a monster like him one. She imagined that she probably owed a future Soul King or perhaps, even a future Soul Emperor!!!

What if... What if he asked her to do something unscrupulous...?

The image of Alchemist Davis holding her waist as his fingers sunk into her soft flesh, abruptly pulling her towards him as he was about to take her lips flashed past her mind, but she quickly shook her head, clearing away those indecent thoughts!

'No, he wouldn't be able to do that to me as I had already stated that he couldn't ask me of something unscrupulous...'

Dalila Leehan quietly calmed down, but her expression deflated for some reason, feeling a bit of regret as to why she had to say something like that. However, she suddenly noticed that Nora Alstreim become fidgety a little.

"What's wrong?"

Nora Alstreim froze before her eyes darted around. She clenched her fists and opened her mouth, "Dalila, I'm sorry. I assume that I won't be able to send you off myself, so do not wait for me. I'll see you next time and treat you to luxurious dining at the upcoming Nine Eastern Territories Young Expert Competition, so forgive my failure to be a host!"

Dalila Leehan looked stunned as she saw Nora Alstreim fly away towards a direction. It was the direction Alchemist Davis, and the Dragon Queen left!

"Don't tell me..." She muttered in a dumbfounded light.

"That's right, young miss." Yahu arrived beside her from nowhere and opened his mouth, "The Young Mistress of the Alstreim Family has decided to make her move."

"No way..." Dalila Leehan closed her agape mouth with her palm, her cheeks blushing with a shade of crimson.

To them, it looked obvious that Nora Alstreim took off to use this chance to make 'good' relations with Alchemist Davis. If this was true, then it was relevant that Nora Alstreim took this chance to try to make contact and seduce him.

At first, it was Immeth Alstreim, and now, it was Nora Alstreim. On one side, she found it hilarious that they were like-master, like-subordinate, but she also found it ridiculous but also felt that is how the cultivation world spun around.

"Young miss, this lowly Protector has something rude to say... Do I have permission?" Yahu suddenly spoke up.

Dalila Leehan looked at him before she nodded her head.

"Go on..."

"From ancient times, it is ordained that men rule the world, but women rule men." Yahu spoke in a solemn voice, "There is nothing wrong in striving for what we want! After all, the heavens have bestowed a great ability like cultivation to acquire what we want!"

"What are you trying to say?" Dalila Leehan acted ignorantly with a snort.
