Divine Emperor of Death

Davis remained confused after he heard that the Nine Western Territories Young Expert Competition was still taking place after he killed half of the hegemons in the Nine Western Territories. After realizing that he could possibly die when dealing with Soul Emperor Merlight and Zlatan Family's Patriarch, he spontaneously decided to take the lives of many together with him, acting with no hesitation.

The Ancestors of Twilight Physician Hall, Vital Tempering Sect, Flowing Mist Sect: Five Ancestors were all killed by him, and it would come to seven dead men if one also included the Towering Cloud Hall's Ancestor Xanbas Goldsky and Flowing Mist Sect's Ancestor Elizar Yantra.

Davis saw no reason for this competition to take place when two of their three overseers were dead, with the last being the Mystic Ice Sect that remained neutral on the surface.

"What happened to their powers?" Davis couldn't help but ask.

"Due to the ban, the Nine Western Territories remain the same even though only the three of us remain; the Alstreim Family, Thousand Pill Palace, and the Mystic Ice Sect."

"What happened to the Falling Snow Sect?" Davis's eyes couldn't help but narrow as he looked at Ancestor Tirea Snow.

She was fairly smiling, having a joyful countenance. He saw the beauties of the Falling Snow Sect in the city when he went out, but nothing happened to them, right?

"No, I already told Ancestor Tirea Snow to bring her entire power here on the day you fell unconscious. So their territory happened to become abandoned, but due to the ban, the Territory still belongs to the Falling Snow Sect, at least in namesake. Furthermore, due to the influence of the Four Great Righteous Sects, the opportunistic powers who can claim the Territories with their powerhouses are lying low at this moment."

Davis appeared a bit speechless.

"I don't understand. Why are the Four Great Righteous Sects going to such lengths to keep the Nine Western Territories stable?"

Was there a big treasure here, or do they merely want to keep the Forsaken Phoenix Realm to themselves? But if it was the case, it was enough that they only concentrate on the Tripartite Alliance Territory, no?

"Indeed, I also feel that it is ridiculous, but as long as it gives us some time to recuperate, I felt that I shouldn't pry much lest I invite some needless trouble."

Davis couldn't help but smile at Isabella.

"You did great, Isabella. Thank you so much."

"Erm... I think I can accept that graciously."

Isabella turned her head away, looking quite adorable yet mesmerizing as she combed her purple hair, inevitably revealing her fair white neck that appeared sumptuous.

Davis intensely gazed at her before he asked.

"Is the Zlatan Family still standing tall in the Golden Dragon Valley Territory?"

"Unfortunately, they are..." Isabella thought for a moment before she answered, "People are confused as to if any peak powerhouses are remaining in the Zlatan Family, so they dare not make the first move against them, waiting for others to tread the muddy waters first. It is the same for the Domitian Family since Nadia, and I killed their Patriarch."

"Marvelous!"

Davis couldn't help but hold both her hands, taking advantage of her at this moment as he pulled her into his embrace.

"Davis, no... not now... so many of them are here..."

Isabella blushed as she sent a soul transmission quickly. She quickly separated from his embrace, feeling all shy and awkward, wondering if anyone else had seen it other than Evelynn and Nadia. Fortunately, it seemed like they were still around Shirley and Clara, appreciating and praising them for their efforts.

Davis possessed a teasing smile, but he suddenly grabbed Nadia's hand and pulled her to his side. Her pale appearance was already charming enough, but when she blushed, her beauty was more stunning that both Isabella and Evelynn couldn't help but blink.

At the same time, they were wondering if he was going to kiss her, but then his voice suddenly rose.

"Everyone...!"

The atmosphere that was boisterous became a bit silent as they turned to look at Davis, immediately noticing that he held hands with Nadia.

Shirley's brows raised as she instantly knew what was up that she couldn't help but smile.

"Everyone here knows what Nadia has done for us. She protected us in these times of peril while I was incapacitated, and even before that, she made an effort to protect some of you and this whole palace. While Isabella took hold of the command, Nadia made sure that this place stayed fortified."

Hearing his speech, everyone couldn't help but nod. Without Nadia, forget encountering this moment, it was doubtful if they would've even survived.

"Would anyone like to thank her?"

"Big sister Nadia. I'm so grateful to you!~"

Fiora was the first one to echo those sweet words, causing Nadia to blink. Followed by her, many began to praise her and also did not forget to congratulate Isabella, causing the both of them to be blushing with happiness. While Shirley felt a bit relieved from being attacked by praises on all sides, she looked at Davis, raising her brows twice at him as if asking what he was doing.

Davis merely smiled before he suddenly wrapped his arm around Nadia's waist, causing most people who saw that action to freeze.

"By the way, I would also like to say that she is not my magical beast mount but my woman. If there is anyone against it, step forward."

Davis's voice domineering echoed as though he might kill anyone who said otherwise.

Claire and Logan were practically dumbfounded, and so were Diana Edward, Edgar, Tia, and Lia. They couldn't help but reveal their shock as their mouth went agape. Even Clara's eyes were wide with deep astonishment.

"You... Davis, are you sure...?"

Claire couldn't help but ask in a hesitative voice.

"Mother, I am completely sure. Legends stated that the ancient feys were born out of wedlock from humans and magical beasts. Therefore, it must've been possible for us to be together. Or if mother insists that we cannot, I won't hesitate to become a fey myself."

"Davis, I never said anything about insisting... I was just doub-" Claire's expression became wry as she smiled, "I was mistaken. You already thought through everything before having a relationship with Nadia, didn't you?"

"I did."

Davis nodded before he looked at his women, caring about their opinions the most about this matter. However, they still looked flabbergasted, not knowing what to say.

Natalya was fairly taking it well as if she expected this, and it could be said the same for Fiora, but Sophie and Niera looked a bit hesitant. On the other hand, Mo Mingzhi was looking at him with a suggestive look in her eyes while Davis averted his gaze from her.

This woman was teasing him while he couldn't help but feel embarrassed. Nevertheless, it seemed like she accepted his relationship with Nadia.

"Uhm, I would like to say something..."

Isabella glanced at Davis before she got the attention of others. She turned to look at them, her eyes appearing to be clear without any kind of reluctance.

"In the immortal realms, it is highly possible that magical beasts and humans live together. Therefore, I don't think what Davis has committed himself to isn't anything wrong."

"I agree."

Shirley's voice resounded in agreement, "The Fire Phoenix Mistress also said something like that, warning me to be careful of her clan that consists of humans, magical beasts, and fey since she already knew that I loved a man, which is Davis and even approved of it."

Everyone's brows couldn't help but raise, feeling their horizons widen. This also explained the fact why the mortal world was at odds with magical beasts without end because they could not give birth to offsprings until they become immortals. When both parties hunted for resources without tangling, how can they co-exist?

At this moment, while everyone was contemplating Isabella and Shirley's words, Evelynn stepped out to the forefront.

"Everyone, I am no longer human, but Davis still accepted me."

Evelynn's forehead seemingly had a beautiful mark that accentuated her beauty, but it suddenly split to reveal the third eye while four spider lances sprawled out from her back, causing everyone's expression to change.

Claire's eyes widened in shock as she saw Evelynn like this, yet at the same time, she couldn't help but feel a sinister aura that made her shiver.

"You... You're the Hex Demoness...!?"

Ancestor Dian Alstreim's body couldn't help but tremble as he voiced out his shock.
