Divine Emperor of Death

Chapter 1536 - TeaChapter Them

Sect Master Bing Luli felt conflicted.

Indeed, Thorus Zlatan's words were true. Even Ancestor Bing Hua, who had reached the Mid-Level Law Rune Stage with Myria's help, wouldn't be able to defend against such wicked path powers who would try to target their Mu Bing.

Most guests present also became flabbergasted at Thorus Zlatan's overbearing words. However, they couldn't refute it because they knew deep down that it was the truth, even though they could argue that those wicked path people wouldn't come here because of their comparatively low resources.

"I will say it again. I'm not kidding. If you stay, you will die."

Thorus Zlatan's voice echoed again as he glanced at Sophie, Niera, and Mu Bing.

"You three little girls may think loyalty is the one that is expected of you from your powers, not to mention that you will also receive praises from the masses for your loyalty, but the ones who praise you will be much happier if they see you meet a tragic fate. They wouldn't want you to grow more. After all, your very existence is something that's an eyesore because you're making them feel inferior."

Some people in the crowd felt their hearts trembling.

Indeed, they felt envious of these three women.

Gong Kim-Jin and Brim Hisler were essentially in disbelief that they couldn't believe, no, refused to believe that these peers had more talent than them. They couldn't accept it and wished that they would die deep in their heart, but since they were women, thoughts of conquering welled up, but since they couldn't, all they wanted to see was their fate turning tragic.

Perhaps, it was the loss and humiliation that made them secretly hate but in any case, like others, they could only remain silent, acting indifferent, as if to deny Thorus Zlatan's words.

Nevertheless, watching Sophie, Niera, and Mu Bing look contemplative as if they were thinking, Thorus Zlatan imperceptibly smiled.

"If your powers thought well of your future, then the natural course of action would be to give you to someone who could protect you. You young girls either train in Fire Laws or Ice Laws. The Orcha Family specializes in Water Laws because of the Water Dragon, while the Domitian Family specializes in Fire laws because of the Fire Dragon."

Davis's brows narrowed at this moment as he recalled about the Fire Dragon.

He speculated further that two of the twelve cultivation manuals should be with one of the Dragon Families, and it seemed like two of them were with the Domitian Family.

'Perhaps, they are in possession of their Fire Dragon's Essence Gathering Cultivation Manual and Body Tempering Cultivation Manual but lost their Soul Forging Cultivation, no?'

He inwardly laughed before he heard Thorus Zlatan continue.

"Of course, it doesn't have to be us. Again, it doesn't have to be the four of us as there are many powers out there, but I can assure you that we can protect you from any wicked path power, unlike other powers you may find or prefer for yourself."

His voice sounded diplomatic and convincing, causing even the people who heard it to feel their hearts tremble. If they could just get into such a power... Unfortunately for them, they were not the ones who conjured a Perfect Domain, further causing them to feel envy.

Sect Master Bing Luli was almost convinced. However, it was different.

So what if Ancestor Bing Hua couldn't protect Mu Bing? She no longer felt conflicted because she had faith in Myria's abilities to counter such wicked path opponents. In fact, the current Mystic Ice Sect was no longer the previous High-Level Emperor Grade Power.

In terms of defenses, it had already reached Peak-Level Emperor Grade!

No matter who may come to their Mystic Ice Sect, death was the only answer they would get.

"Funny..."

A chuckle abruptly echoed in the silent Grand Wedding Hall.

Everyone's eyes couldn't help but fall on the source of that mocking voice. When they saw who it was, it was none other than Davis Alstreim, moving his lips to speak again.

"You did indeed say that your power would protect them but not once did you tell them you would protect them from your own family who would prey upon them once given the chance."

"Insolent!"

Thorus Zlatan's anger peaked as he bellowed. His undulations scrambled as he pointed at Davis, causing almost everyone to hold their breaths.

"Who do you think we are!?"

"Some righteous hypocrites like most of us are." Davis shrugged, "After all, being stronger doesn't mean people can change their intrinsic characteristics and qualities, turning into good and truly righteous people. Otherwise, would strong, wicked path people even exist?"

Thorus Zlatan's eyes almost turned bloodshot.

He took a step forward as if he was about to attack Davis, but then a voice echoed in his head.

"Thorus, not yet."

Thorus Zlatan stopped his advance, clenching his teeth as he heard Kyris Domitian's voice.

"Hmph! You're just glib-tongued. The only reason you can speak like this lies in the fact that the Dragon Queen and her Protector are behind you. Otherwise, you would be reaping the consequences of your words by now. That's why I also tell the children who created a Perfect Domain to be smart and faithful to their own lives. However, it seems like they've misunderstood something."

"...?"

The crowd went confused, wondering what he meant before they saw him turn his head around, looking at the youths of the Zlatan Family.

"Fleander, teach these people a lesson."

A golden-haired youth stepped forward without asking anything as he flew towards the battle platform.

His eyes shone with a golden hue while there was an imposing air framed by his confident look. He appeared fairly handsome but more rugged with the beard he possessed.

Once he made it to the battle platform, he clasped his hands and smiled.

"Niera Alstreim, I challenge you to a battle."

"...!"

The crowd's expression froze.

Looks like the Dragon Families wanted to showcase the difference between their strengths.

Niera narrowed her eyes as she looked at the person who challenged her. She could feel High-Level Law Dominion Stage undulations from him, but surely, that couldn't be his full strength. While she was wondering about her opponent's prowess, his voice echoed out again.

"Don't worry. I'm within a hundred years of age, and if you don't believe me, anyone can check my bone age. Moreover, I've got nothing to hide. My High-Level Law Dominion Stage cultivation is comparable to the very peak of Low-Level Law Sea Stage while my Body Tempering Cultivation is at High-Level Martial Master Stage."

"You see. I'm quite different in my family, where I concentrate on Essence Gathering Cultivation instead of Body Tempering Cultivation. Surely, I may not have been talented enough to create a Perfect Domain, but a Flawless Foundation like yours along with a Supreme Domain is still achievable for characters like me."

Niera rolled her eyes.

Flawed, Blemished, Flawless, Unblemished, and Perfect.

These were the five foundations of Essence Gathering Cultivation and Body Tempering Cultivation.

Unless one's cultivation manual had reached a level where it had little to no flaws, it was almost impossible to climb past Flawless Foundation and reach Unblemished Foundation or even Perfect Foundation, for that matter.

Nevertheless, she knew if she accepted this battle, she would undoubtedly face defeat. But, if the other party could just wait a few months, she believed that she could topple him. Her age was just too low compared to him, that she felt it was unfair.

Considering Niera's age, the limit should've been set below fifty years old if she were to truly admit defeat.

However, she wasn't the type to back down in the face of defeat.

She never lost against her peers, but that didn't mean that she didn't lose when battling with her seniors, who entertained her entitled behavior, helping her train her battle skills. She almost stood up, before a hand grasped her wrist.

"Uh-uh, it's my turn. You stay seated."

Niera suddenly felt at ease as she glanced at Davis's smile. She smiled back at him before sitting back down, feeling protected but also shy.

Davis let her wrist go and stood up, walking two steps forward before he flew to the battle platform.

Fleander Zlatan's eyes narrowed while the other people also reacted the same.

Why was Davis Alstreim stepping up at this moment?

Their pupils trembled at that very thought as a tremor ran through their hearts!

'No way!!!'

They inwardly screamed, refusing to believe such a scenario!

There could never be a fourth Perfect Domain in this small place!
