Divine Emperor of Death

*Bang!~*

"Uwahhh!!!"

An incredible ray of jade light exploded, and an immortal was sent flying through the battle stage as he crashed into the barrier, causing him to rebound and break his bones on the battle stage heavily. He raised his bloodied hands, wanting to retaliate but seemed to be near his limit, collapsing on the ground.

"Last man standing, Raelzar, has won the second place with nine wins!"

The battle mediator declared as he waved his hands, causing the barrier to come down, allowing the injured and uninjured immortal youths to leave.

"Well, that was quick."

"If it weren't for Mo Tian surrendering to keep his word, perhaps the subsequent battles would've been exciting to watch, but it has been lackluster so far..."

The crowd couldn't help but comment as Mo Tian had defeated the main powers as he had taken out ten of them with his pure physical prowess, while the remaining ones were the provincial powers and the Starlight Jade Wolf Clan's Raelzar.

This made it so that Raelzar had a heightened advantage in defeating his enemies, causing his opponents to be thrown off-guard. They thought of surrendering but surrendering in this segment meant choosing to take a win off the table, meaning out of twenty-six victories that could be obtained, one win would be taken away for each surrender.

They really would not be able to rake in wins in the free-for-all segment.

Nonetheless, that didn't stop them from banding together and attacking their fellow conspirators to gain quick wins, making it so that Raelzar was only able to obtain eight wins. Otherwise, everyone felt that he could've gone further beyond what Mo Tian obtained, potentially placing the Starlight Jade Wolf Clan first for the second time in these three segments.

After all, Mo Tian had nonchalantly surrendered after achieving ten wins, making it easier for Raelzar to surpass him.

As Raelzar walked towards the Starlight Jade Wolf Clan proudly, he noticed that the atmosphere had become different. The leaders were not paying attention to him, much less his Patriarch, not even congratulating him for achieving nine wins.

Instead, they all seemed to be talking to their elders, and their glances somewhat fell on Mo Tian occasionally, making him wonder what was going on. Still, he walked to his place and sat down, asking his fellow disciples what was going on when they shook their heads, telling him that they had no idea.

The next moment, the elder beside Starlight Jade Wolf King also left in humble strides, causing the latter to turn and stare at Mo Tian.

"Mo Tian, is there anything else that I should know about you?"

"…"

Davis's heart shook. With how the leaders were behaving right now, could it be that they had found out that he was the Emperor of Death? Slightly glancing at the other leaders, he saw that their gazes were also on him at the moment, the atmosphere becoming eerily silent.

Drake also noticed the strangeness in the situation and gulped, wondering how Davis would react.

Could it be that they had done something to Drake without them knowing and listening to their conversation?

They couldn't help but think before Davis couldn't help but sigh, thinking that it was enough as this was bound to happen. He didn't expect his disguise to be foolproof anyway.

"You people got me… and I tried so hard to hide it because I know that more people would target me for this..."

Davis shook his head, causing the brows of the leaders to shoot wide.

He stood up, intending to make his escape if need be, as he looked at the Starlight Jade Wolf King for help.

"You… so you really are a Saint…?"

"Yes… uh…? A Saint?"

Davis appeared taken aback, his thoughts swirling as a wave of realization struck his soul!

They didn't discover him to be the Emperor of Death but had investigated the people he healed and derived this conclusion, causing him to hurriedly shake his hands.

"Of- of course not. Who is a Saint? They're the most virtuous existence existing in the universe, much like the legendary goddess of the First Haven World. I, Mo Tian, cannot be like them..."

Mo Tian appeared flustered as his cheeks reddened.

Looking at this scene, countless jaws dropped, and the hearts of the leaders shook.

This way of avoiding title and fame… he… Mo Tian was most likely a Saint…!

Even if he was not a Saint, they knew he was becoming titled as one as his light energy was on par with a Saint's healing prowess, being capable of healing all kinds of injuries and ailments, causing them to reel in shock.

It must be known that the Starlight Jade Wolf Clan and the Lumin Family both possessed light energy that was above and beyond in quality than millions of light energy variations, yet their healing prowess wasn't even as half as Mo Tian's, much less capable of eradicating poison.

Utmost, their energies could hold back foreign injuries and heal minor injuries or injuries that are easily curable, but it was definitely incapable of miracles such as the one Mo Tian enacted.

In an inconspicuous corner, the eyes of a person shook.

'What…? What in the nine heavens is my disciple spewing? He is a monster in using death energy, my successor… my son… How can it be that he is a Saint…?'

Deathseeker's body shuddered, unable to believe what he was hearing, but he also had been having mild doubts about how he was able to cure this poison as even he didn't know how to deal with the Myriad Toxic Hydrafang Poison if it struck his soul.

Nightveil's gaze also trembled. She had returned to her clan seamlessly without getting into any trouble or scrutiny whatsoever but hearing Davis's words and remembering the soothing energy she received, she was shocked to understand that it could be his own energy that healed her.

'His essence… has flooded me…?'

Nightveil bit her lips, her cheeks turning red as she could tell what he used was soul force, and soul force to spirits was as good as water. When it was digested in their spirit bodies instead of being used as an attack to kill them, it was good as nutrition.

However, she was also in deep disbelief of how he could use light energy while being capable of using death energy, but that wasn't an incredibly rare case as she knew it was possible as long as people used different energies, but this stemmed from the same source, which was soul force, leaving her speechless and confused, making her wonder whether he was kidding around to fool or confuse more people.

"Everyone, I would like to propose an idea that everyone would be able to accept."

Abruptly, the Zyrus Family Patriarch, Yinakin Zyrus, stood and grabbed everyone's attention.

"Why don't we invite Apothecary Mo Tian to join our alliance by gifting him with what we all promised him, of course, minus the lovely ladies he politely declined because of his unique and virtuous stature?"

"Oh, that's a good idea."

"I agree."

"Perfect. This way, our alliance can flourish and be more taken care of by every power present here because we would have a unique person like Mo Tian."

The other leaders echoed with smiles, appearing excited.

However, the Starlight Jade Wolf King's brows squinted deeply, knowing that the Zyrus Family had come up with a plan to pull Mo Tian away from his power, further causing him to feel that he had no way to retain Mo Tian in front of this alliance.

After all, how could his one power compare to the wealth and resources of twenty-six other powers that were willing to gift Mo Tian to attract him into the alliance?
