Divine Emperor of Death

After some time of experiencing comfort in his affectionate caresses, Tina Roxley soundly slept on his lap, looking extremely beautiful in his eyes. He exchanged his thighs for a pillow in a split second, not disturbing her as he silently left and locked the door.

Tina Roxley woke up as she heard the sound of the door locking before a merry smile appeared on her lips.

'Ah~ I didn't expect him to be so caring...'

Tina Roxley felt content.

She mused that he would take her innocence today since he already had so many women, not that she hated it since it was also her desire, but contrary to her imagination, he really treated her with the care and affection that she could visibly feel and wanted, even making her relaxedly sleep on his lap.

She didn't expect this at all, but it made her all the more look forward to her next meeting.

Sitting up straight, she sat crossed-leg and took out the gift he gave her.

'Sage Tree Essence Pill...'

Tina Roxley viewed with awe as she had never seen a pill of this caliber.

'Judging by the glow and its lustrous appearance, this pill is at Advanced-Tier and overflows with gentle energy. How marvelous...'

Admiring it for its potency and effects as an alchemist for some time, she finally swallowed the pill, feelings its essence disperse magically. She couldn't even track its movements in her body as it completely blended with her own energy and traced right back to her three dantians.

Suddenly, Tina Roxley could feel her energy undulate strangely. She closed her eyes and hurriedly tried to grasp onto whatever came her away, but knowing not to panic at these times, she soothed her rapidly beating heart. Before long, her undulations began to vibrate at a faster pace as if it was pulling on something, beginning to resonate with the heaven and earth energy.

'This is...'

Tina Roxley felt indescribable at this moment. The wisp of fire burning on the lamp, the earthenwares, and furniture kept enriching her fire while the metal weapons and cauldron that hung on the walls radiated suddenly more of their intricacies towards her.

Was she breaking through in her Law Intents simultaneously?

'No... I can perceive more...!'

Tina Roxley felt this could feel the Fire, Earth, and Metal Laws turning more perceivable in her vicinity. It felt otherworldly to be able to perceive to such a vast degree, making her wonder if this is how geniuses felt when they are surrounded by such cultivation treasures, capable of comprehending at a faster rate than ordinary people.

Becoming excited, she threw a lot of Fire-Attributed Mid-Level Spirit Stone Vein Fragments before she reveled in this state for a long time, finally experiencing a breakthrough in her Fire Laws, comprehending Level Two Intent for the soul and Level Five Intent for her Essence Gathering Cultivation that's at High-Level Law Manifestation Stage.

She could even feel her Body Tempering Cultivation that is at the Low-Level Gold Stage, able to feel more warmth as if it could sense the blazing fire, vigorous earth, and tempered metal, but it was not as significant as what she felt when comprehending for her soul.

'My soul really has changed...'

Tina Roxley believed that her soul did mutate to fit these three energies, making her wonder what kind of unique physique she could obtain if at all her mutated soul was in its initial stages of awakening, like Davis said.

She couldn't suppress the excitement in her heart, but she also tried to stay calm to not rely on it too much as she continued with her comprehension. After all, wishful thinking sometimes ends up making a hard-working person a lazy bum and a good-for-nothing.

Davis swaggered around the Purple Guest Palace, wondering what he should do.

'I should break through to the Law Sea Stage, but I'm not yet at my peak. With Eldia's law bestowment, I can make my Lightning Domain reach five kilometers and conjure an Immeasurable Sea, but it's not the same for my Fire Laws that are lagging behind. Damn, I should've asked for fire-attributed resources from the Domitian Family instead of wanting slaves, but oh well, it's Isabella's decision. She deserves to be the person who should punish them however she wanted...'

He also felt that if he had obtained some fire-attribute resources from Quara, the Young Miss of the Scarlet Tyrant Hawk Abode, by exchanging Zestria Domitian, his path to obtaining Law Sea Stage's Immeasurable Sea would already be set in stone for him.

'I can't use her due to pitying her, nor can I take her innocence due to my values. I must be the most useless master in the world...'

Davis couldn't help but laugh at himself before he thought about why he bothered to agree to Isabella's decision.

'Did Isabella truly think that I would take their purity, gain benefits from their primal yin essence, and also humiliate them?'

Davis shook his head ruefully. He felt that he wasn't capable of such cruelty unless he possessed personal vendetta against them. His personal vendetta was already over when he sacrificed himself to kill the hostile parties and later took the life of Soul Emperor Zealwonder. However, he also understood that Isabella's rage against the Zlatan and Domitian Family wasn't anything small, but expecting him to act like a true rogue was a bit uncomfortable for him.

As he contemplated what to do with his Essence Gathering Cultivation's Fire Laws, he chanced upon Sophie and Niera walking past him.

"You two... where are you going?"

Those two beautiful blonde flowers shot a brazen smile at him.

"We're going to shop wedding outfits for every one of us." Sophie flicked her blonde hair, "Besides, Niera hadn't had the opportunity to see how the world is like with cultivating all day long, so I'm taking her with me."

"Sure!"

Davis presented a thumbs up, feeling that their leisure would go up, giving them more motivation in the end.

"You won't come with us...?"

Niera softly asked with a yearning gaze when a voice echoed from her side.

"Niera..."

"Ah, sorry." Niera suddenly realized from Sophie's reminder as she looked at Davis, "I didn't mean to be annoying you as I understand that you're busy..."

She bit her lips while Sophie patted her shoulder, telling her not to worry.

"I'm truly sorry, you two. I'm afraid that I..."

Davis paused and appeared crestfallen as his shoulders dropped, causing both Sophie and Niera to feel apologetic.

"...if I go with you two, I won't be able to hold back until marriage."

"I should've known~"

Sophie rolled her eyes before she deeply smiled at him while Niera appeared confused before her expression changed, realizing that he was flirting with them. Instead of getting angry, she smiled like Sophie, feeling heartened that his affectionate emotions towards them still stayed the same.

After all, she was afraid that he might not like her anymore, especially after so many women were willing to fight for his favor and love, becoming evident in the banquet where the Alstreim Family and Falling Snow Sect's young flowers looked at him with a bit of yearning in their eyes while also looking at them, the women beside him with a bit of jealousy.

"That's right." Sophie nodded her head suddenly, "Davis, we heard from Natalya and the others that you love Iesha, that ice spirit. Is this true?"

Davis blinked before he heavily nodded his head, causing both of their eyes to widen.

"What? Are you disgusted?"

Davis asked before he pursed his lips, appearing worried.

Sophie swiftly shook her head.

"Of course not. I'm just surprised that you didn't want those two Dragon Queens who are beautiful than most of us but wanted a spirit. Before, I thought you wanted Nadia, a magical beast, for her peerless beauty since you decided to break a taboo, but now I understand that I was wrong."

Sophie winked in a playful manner while Davis couldn't help but ask.

"You think Iesha isn't beautiful?"

"How can that be?"

Sophie looked as if she had heard something funny.

"Iesha is as beautiful as third sister Isabella, but she's a spirit, an entity unknown to us that I thought beauty alone wouldn't make you fall for her. After all, our perspectives and thoughts may differ widely. However, now I can certainly see two reasons that might've attracted you, hehe~"

Sophie teasingly giggled before she quickly captured Niera's wrist, "Let's go, Niera. We'll have our chance with him later, and at that time, no one can separate him from us, not even himself, according to his own words."

She quickly ran past him while Niera waved him goodbye.

"You two, be safe!"

Davis also waved his hand and spoke as he raised his voice before Sophie turned around and echoed.

"No need to worry! Big sis would protect us as we agreed to meet later."

Their figures then disappeared from his gaze, making him drop his hand.

'Sophie, she really became bold, acting like an elder sister to Niera...'

Davis couldn't help but inwardly laugh, wondering if this was the influence of her darkness soul for a few seconds before he stretched his body.

'Well, it's almost night anyway. Let's go see Iesha, for I think it's meaningless to hide my feelings from her when she gave so many clues already....'
