Divine Emperor of Death

Chapter 2072: Birth Of An Eternal Union

Today, everyone close to Davis had gathered in the Purple Guest Palace’s hall. Before this, they had been all in closed-door seclusion, but as though knowing that something was going to happen soon, they all exited rather early. Starting a few days back, the atmosphere was full of joy and festivities, but now, it had come to an all-time new low.

A purple-robed man was standing in a room, but his body was stiff as he heard a red-robed woman scream in pain behind a white curtain. The silhouettes of two women were tending to a red-robed woman as they moved around, and some blood drops even splashed at the curtain, causing the purple-robed man to blink.

“Ue!~ Ue!~”

A few seconds later, a baby’s cry could be heard, causing the purple-robed man to tremble as he stood.

The white curtain was moved by a woman who brightly smiled at him. It was none other than Zestria. She moved out of the way and gestured inside, causing the purple-robed man to look at the scene as Niera handed over a baby to Shirley, who was reclined on a birthing cushion.

“…”

Davis appeared awestruck as he looked at the mother and the baby that his legs subconsciously moved forward. He arrived in front of them, standing rooted to the spot. A smile slowly couldn’t help but appear on his face before he reached out his hand and used his thumb finger to caress the baby’s face.

Shirley held the baby gently as she shed tears. Even though she looked exhausted, she could feel her strength returning crazily now that she had given birth to her baby. She watched Davis shed a tear before he smiled even more as though he was going to laugh out loud, but he bent his waist and kissed her lips, causing her to feel loved.

Her emotions were already chaotic, but at this moment, she never knew that she could love him so much more. Their lips separated before the both of them glanced toward their baby.

Their baby was indeed a girl.

“Congratulations, and thank you for bringing us into one entity, Shirley.”

Davis wrapped his arm around Shirley while caressing the baby with his other hand.

His voice was gentle, and he looked so genuinely happy that Zestria and Niera didn’t say anything but left him alone with the mother and the baby. Outside, they spread the news, and the crowd burst into cheers, crying and celebrating.

Everyone was eager to see Davis and Shirley’s baby, but they waited for them to come out together. After all, unlike a true mortal woman who needs hours and days to clear the exhaustion, female cultivators would quickly regain their energy back after giving birth. In their minds, Shirley would recover within anywhere between five minutes to an hour.

Davis looked at his baby with bright eyes. He couldn’t believe that he was a father already, causing him to occasionally laugh in disbelief and acceptance while looking at the features of the girl baby.

She was so small, around forty-nine centimeters in length, looking extremely cute while possessing her mother’s features, her crimson hair, but she inherited his sapphire eyes. She had already stopped crying after she wrapped her tiny fingers around his index finger, making him reel in gentleness, making him feel as though he was being depended on by the sweetest thing in this world.

He practically couldn’t get enough of it.

Simultaneously, he looked at the placenta connected with the baby, but it didn’t warrant his attention too much.

Lotus birth was a common practice in the cultivation world.

Once the placenta transfers all its remnant energy to the newborn, it would quickly dry and become disconnected by itself. There was no need to clip two sides and sever it, unlike a mortal baby’s placenta that would quickly get infected. As for the other effects of the placenta of a cultivator’s baby, it was rumored that it even protects the baby from harmful attacks, although that rumor was bogus according to his knowledge, although he also felt that it might be true for babies who were born immortal.

He just couldn’t be sure, but a few minutes later, Shirley stood up, looking all revved up. The previously visible exhaustion on her face was like it was never there, causing him to be truly astonished.

“Let’s go. Everyone should be waiting!”

Shirley wrapped the baby around in a soft cloth while snuggling with Davis. They both exited the birthing room simultaneously, causing a boisterous and joyous atmosphere to spread.

Claire was the first one to arrive in front of them, simply crying as she hid her mouth with her palms, her nose blushing. She was moved beyond tears, not knowing what to say, maybe because her pride had finally given her a grandchild, causing her to become a grandmother. Her emotions at this moment knew no delightful matter than this at this moment.

“Can I…?”

She asked, causing Shirley to give her girl baby away.

Claire brought the cute baby to her bosoms and bit her lips. She turned around and let the others see, looking so proud and moved. Logan also deeply smiled, knowing that he had finally become a grandfather.

Evelynn and the others were simply ogling at the baby, almost swarming around as their expression melted, letting the others not able to see. Even Clara looked visibly excited while Diana was just jumping around. It was a funny moment, but Davis and Shirley were not worried. No one here would harm the baby, and their baby wasn’t weak enough to succumb to the invisible parasites in the air. The heaven and earth energy already got rid of them for the most part anyway.

“Name… do you two have a name already for this cutie pie?”

Mingzhi suddenly turned around and asked Davis and Shirley.

Davis simply smiled, passing the baton to Shirley, who grinned with excitement.

“Our union gave birth to a lovely daughter who is as eternal as the blazing nirvana flames of the phoenix. I thought of naming our daughter Eterna… Eterna Davis. Do you like it?”

Shirley expectantly asked, her crimson eyes glimmering with eagerness as she gazed at Davis.

“Eterna…”

Davis looked at his girl baby carrying the blood of a dragon and a phoenix. At the very least, becoming an immortal wouldn’t be a problem for her as she was their first-generation descendant and even the firstborn.

“I love it.” He smirked, caressing Shirley’s face as he kissed her forehead, causing her to feel content.

“Eterna~”

Everyone began to utter that name before it became a chorus of sorts, some making fun of the baby and some well-wishing it. Logan even joked that his Loret Family would end with his life since Davis’s women started all wanting their man’s name instead, causing them all to laugh.

Abruptly, a golden-robed woman walked toward Davis and Shirley, causing them to smile.

It was none other than Isabella, having a hand on her big belly as she cast a smirk.

She was next, after all.

Davis had been spending time with Isabella and Shirley every day in these two months since they were the only ones not cultivating but also didn’t forget his cultivation. Time was ticking, after all. He had entered Peak-Level Emperor Soul Stage already, and his immense prowess was capable of exterminating hundreds and millions of lives instantly as though he was an immortal.

The only thing left for him is to consume a pill that could be considered even more advanced than an Ascended Tier Supreme Ebbing Sigil Pill, hopefully.
