Divine Emperor of Death

Chapter 4413: The Zenflame's Mastermind

"Then who do you think is responsible?"

Davis asked Realm Master Warren Auraflame, his tone still icy.

The crowd shuddered.

It seemed like the Divine Emperor of Death wanted to execute someone, no matter what! They wanted to secretly leave right now and deal with this issue later.

Venerable Knight Lussandra and a few other Heaven's Warriors who had joined descended to the battle stage.

"That's about enough."

Davis turned to look at them, "Why didn't you make a move to defend the normal people, even if you don't want to defend Divergents?"

"Can't have you thinking I'm one of them out of the slightest movement, can I?"

"…" Davis nodded as he looked away, "Good."

He returned his gaze to Realm Master Warren Auraflame, "I'll be expecting a fine answer and thorough compensation."

"This…" Realm Master Warren Auraflame appeared hesitant, "I might have an individual in mind who is capable of such atrocities."

"…?"

Davis turned to look at Realm Master Warren Auraflame. He still wished to speak?

Venerable Knight Lussandra also appeared to be surprised.

In truth, Davis wasn't going to let go of Noraus Auraflame. He would be his hostage until the Auraflame Clan responds. However, it seems like Realm Master Warren Auraflame wanted to finish it now, or rather-

"It's someone whom you can't touch, can you?"

"He has my mother on her deathbed…"

Warren Auraflame lowered his head, sending a soul transmission.

"Is it the true leader of the Zenflame Clan, Kerez Zenflame?" Davis asked back secretively.

"Yes, he has my mother's soul poisoned and has the antidote, but claims that he has nothing to do with it. We have no evidence against him, but I know he is the root of evil within the Phoenix clans. I'm afraid that I took things too far with him, then he would retaliate, and my mother's life would end. I'm ashamed to say such a scourge split off from my clan and became something like this… where did we go wrong…?"

"…"

Davis blinked. Realm Master Warren Auraflame was stone faced and he heard that he was a noble and stern individual, but it turns out that he was soft.

Or perhaps he was soft to his mother and got caught completely by the wings, helpless to do anything.

Nonetheless, he knew Realm Master Warren Auraflame shouldn't be in the wrong since he was younger compared to Kerez Zenflame.

Davis knew this Kerez Zenflame would sooner or later show up, but to think he would target his daughter first and as though it was fate- it was Shirley's daughter. Was this Kerez Zenflame's form of revenge?

'That's fine. If genocide is what you're looking for, I'll give that gift to your entire Zenflame Clan.'

Davis's brows narrowed.

The chamber became filled with thick killing intent, causing many hearts to sink.

Now they wondered what Realm Master Warren Auraflame said to the Divine Emperor of Death. However, most of the higher-ups of the Auraflame Clan were aware. Compared to the cunning Zenflame Clan, they looked like they were ripe sheep for the taking.

If the Auraflame Clan didn't have generational power, he doubted it would've survived a clash with the Zenflame Clan.

"In any case, leave Noraus Auraflame here and come back with the compensation. Until then, you have my word we won't harm him. I'm just making sure the remnant power of the Accursed Warlock doesn't affect him."

"Ah, many thanks, Divine Emperor of Death."

Realm Master Warren Auraflame cupped his hands, feeling grateful.

He knew the terror that the Accursed Warlock was capable of.

"Don't misunderstand." Davis uttered coldly, "I'm purifying him to clear any trace of that retarded warlock. First of all, if you had just been more careful instead of greedily craving some power that was 'accidentally' found in a secret realm that you should be aware of, it goes without saying what kind of leadership stature you possess."

"…!"

Realm Master Warren Auraflame felt incensed and ashamed. However, he was powerless, so he could only put his head down.

"At least you have some guts to get enraged at me." Davis scoffed.

He then turned to look at Venerable Knight Lussandra, "Innocents have been targeted right in front of you. Do the Heaven's Warriors not move against atrocious and plain evil like the Accursed Warlock, Wicked Tamer, and Vile Enchanter?"

Venerable Knight Lussandra responded, "For one, none of your family members are registered as innocents in our view. For the rest, I swear to hunt them down since I abhor evil. I wouldn't be talking to you if I deemed you as an inherent evil. But as for the Heaven's Warriors, it is our rule not to interfere in worldly affairs. We only target unnatural entities and war targets from other galaxies. Anything else isn't in our purview, but I'll still pursue them and behead them, not for your sake but for the sake of peace and justice."

She turned towards the entrance, "If this ceremony is over, I suppose I can leave."

"Not yet. The marriage continues."

Davis declared.

His pressure rose and made everyone want to be seated, basically forcing them to continue participating despite what happened.

"Besides, it isn't as though there wouldn't be another assassin in hiding."

Davis's soul force sprang up.

"What are you doing?" Venerable Knight Lussandra narrowed her eyes.

"Aaaa~"

Abruptly, a voice echoed in a monotonous tone from the entrance. It was a woman. Her melodious voice reverberated in the palace, causing everyone to grab their heads and grunt and moan as they felt their souls slightly in pain. It was as though someone was stabbing their souls ever so lightly, making them react with instinctive emotions.

At the same time, a strange power differentiated the pain. It split the emotions into light and darkness, two different wavelengths.

Mingzhi was searching for a difference in the wavelength of their emotions. As long as she found any discrepancy, she knew they were compromised. This time, her skill was even more precise and encompassing, able to check every single one of the guests present.

When she opened her eyes, she looked at Venerable Knight Lussandra, pointing a sword at her, but Davis also stood, blocking Venerable Knight Lussandra with his bare hand.

Venerable Knight Lussandra's brows twitched, seeing that he didn't counterattack. Blood pooled on the ground, but Davis didn't seem to care.

"No, there's no other strange Wills in the souls of the others. I sense some ancestral Wills. That's all. As for hostility and fear, there is plenty. Even you fear us, Venerable Knight Lussandra." Mingzhi coldly spoke.

Venerable Knight Lussandra's gaze flashed, "I fear what demise your Davis Family will bring to this world. You are all too powerful for your own good."

She brought her sword back and waved it, sending the blood off.

On the other hand, Davis's hand looked already as good as healed, making one wonder where the blood came from.

They couldn't help but shudder, deeply understanding what Venerable Knight Lussandra meant by that they were too powerful. It was scary when they figured this was just like dealing with the righteous path. They can't go all out without a good reason, so hovering on the discussion of what is good and evil will only waste their time while the Divine Emperor of Death continues to grow rapidly.

Once that opportune moment to kill him passed, who can end him!?
