Divine Emperor of Death

Chapter 1300 - Uncomfortable Feeling...

Davis could feel plenty of killing intent brew behind him. He was somewhat surprised by Tina Roxleyʼs outburst that he couldnʼt help but turn behind to look at her.

Her amethyst eyes were shining like a gem, reeking with killing intent. She was beautiful with her small, straight nose and cherry lips. Her figure remained mature with her bountiful bosomsʼ perkiness and curves, while the purple alchemist robe she wore greatly accentuated her assets.

Davisʼs heart skipped a beat for some strange reason when he saw her familiar and lovely face, making him wonder why before he noticed the person who was behind her.

Behind, he looked at the little boy, tremble under his gaze.

ʼAh, so he had listened to the words I first mentioned before he went to tell her. How cute... but it works for me since she is here...ʼ

Davis was about to open his mouth when Brandis Mercer quickly stood up as a bright red color barrier suddenly enveloped all of them into it.

Davis blinked, ”A domain...?”

Tina Roxley was stunned as well. She really didnʼt think her father would go for the kill. Nevertheless, she instantly moved as a dagger appeared in her hand while killing intent blazed from her eyes.

”Stop!”

Brandis Mercer shouted as a flame wall suddenly appeared between the masked man and Tina Roxley. Tina Roxley became further confused before she heard her fatherʼs voice.

”Since you canʼt swear that you wonʼt harm her, just leave... I will not allow you to have a talk with her.”

”I really canʼt swear because it depends on her answer...”

Davis wryly smiled behind the mask. He stood up before calmly snapping his finger, the tiny domain that surrounded them instantly looked as if it became frail, turning dull before it shattered!

”!!!”

Brandis Mercer retreated two steps back as he felt the backlash, but it was nothing big as he didnʼt use much force to conjure his fiery domain. His expression rather became ugly, coming to know that the other party was too strong for him to handle considering that he couldnʼt still sense the other partyʼs cultivation even though he could see that snap carried enough force to destroy his domain.

Tina Roxley froze as the masked manʼs gaze landed on her while the little boy plunged to the floor b.u.t.t flat as he looked in horror. He fumbled on and on before crying and escaping out of this place.

Davis didnʼt bother about him, but when he was about to open his mouth, another man appeared in front of him in a hurry while storming into the room, causing him to be annoyed.

”Wait! Esteemed cultivator! Whoever you are, I require you to stop in respect to the name of my Heaven Gazing Sect!”

The middle-aged man had brown eyes, wearing a white robe as well as a mantle that made him seem grand and pompous.

Davis became astonished, wondering why a person from the Heaven Gazing Sect was present here as he saw the talisman that the middle-aged man held, also becoming suspicious as he could not tell if it was fake or real.

”You are...?” He cautiously asked.

”That is what I... we would like to ask, but since you asked first, Iʼll be polite enough to reply. My name is Aurelius, and Iʼm an outer sect disciple of the Heaven Gazing Sect...”

A proud expression appeared on his face before he smiled, ”Iʼm a Mystic Diviner...”

Davisʼs expression became a wonder to behold before his mind clicked as if it connected the dots.

Didnʼt Elder Seylas back in the Xuan Empire say that Tina Roxley went away with her Master and a mysterious elder? At the time when it happened was also when Shirley and Ellia evaded the blockade of the Tripartite Alliance and escaped somewhere.

He had also gained information from a Tripartite Alliance Elder that a Mystic Diviner had tried to track them but failed!

Therefore, who could it be if it werenʼt for this person called Aurelius!? The time was just too coincidental for him to not be doubtful of this person!

”So youʼre a grand Mystic Diviner... No wonder youʼre an outer sect disciple of the Heaven Gazing Sect that allowed us all to know about the impending calamitous Calamity Light. Righteous indeed...”

Davis uttered in a moved tone. He was really moved as he was itching to kill this bastard. He felt that if it werenʼt for him, at least Shirley would be with him now, even if he couldnʼt find Ellia because of her unruly incarnation.

On the other hand, Aurelius took a pompous pose as he felt that the other party finally knew about his grandness. Not only was he a Mystic Diviner, but he was a Mystic Diviner accepted by the Heaven Gazing Sect, one of the four great righteous powers in the Fifty-Two Territories. The two couldnʼt be definitely compared.

Even though the Heaven Gazing Sect just occupied a mid-sized Territory, that was because it just wasnʼt hungry for power. Almost every person knowledgeable about the world knew that his power stood at the top along with the Astral Light Sect, Heaven Mandate Temple, and the Vast Sky Emperor Palace! The other three great righteous powers of the Fifty-Two Territories!

Who would dare to offend him when he had this kind of status!?

Even a Grand Elder-level character from the Thousand Pill Palace visited him to curry favor, promising him riches and beauties if he so joins their power as a guest elder. However, he simply kept them at armʼs length as he knew how righteous the Heaven Gazing Sect could be that he knew if he got caught doing moral-less and wicked deeds, his life wasnʼt his anymore.

Davis calmed his emotions, thinking that coming here was worth it. He had also simultaneously constructed a hypothesis that Tina Roxley used this Mystic Diviner to probably affect him during the moment of breakthrough to the King Soul Stage using some kind of method.

Surely, Mystic Diviners learned Karma Laws, Space Laws, and Time Laws so they could cross extreme distances to attack, no? As far as he knew, Karma Laws were mostly about threads, but who said that these threads couldnʼt be used for attacks? There were possibly other ways to attack as well, so it made sense for Aurelius to have affected him while even crossing such an isolated space.

Davis now felt like everything made sense, but he felt it was always reliable to hear it from the other partyʼs own mouth.

”Iʼd like to speak with a Mystic Diviner, but anyways, priorities are priorities. Iʼd like to speak alone with Tina Roxley over here, so if you two could exit, I would appreciate it...”

Everyone became stunned while Tina Roxley narrowed her eyes in suspicion.

While Brandis Mercerʼs expression became worried, Aureliusʼs expression increasingly became ugly. There was actually a strong cultivator after Tina Roxley? What kind of unlucky shit had he stepped on?

”For what reason?” He muttered as his fists trembled.

”I said for you two to exit and leave Tina Roxley alone with me... Iʼll just ask her a few questions, and if it is satisfying, Iʼll simply leave her alone.”

Both Brandis Mercer and Aurelius couldnʼt understand what he meant. Was he here to kidnap Tina Roxley? Didnʼt seem like that, but still, they were incredibly wary for different reasons.

Aurelius suppressed his rage as he pointed towards the masked man.

”I donʼt know what intentions you possess for my niece, but if you harm her, Iʼll promise that the entire Heaven Gazing Sect will be upon you!”

Davis narrowed his eyes as he had his Heart Intent active to garner their reactions from the moment he entered. He could sense that Brandis Mercer was incredibly worried but helpless to attack as he didnʼt want Tina Roxley to be harmed, while Tina Roxley was simply confused and nervous, even curious as to why he would be asking for her to know some answers to unknown questions.

On the other hand, Aureliusʼs emotions were panicked, enraged, and worried, but there was also l.u.s.t at this moment when it shouldnʼt be here. Obviously, the latter wasnʼt pointed to him but Tina Roxley.

ʼDidnʼt this already dead Mystic Diviner just say that Tina was his niece...? But heʼs not a Roxley, nor is he Brandis Mercerʼs blood brother as their names donʼt match. So he is either a brother-in-law or sworn brother to Brandis Mercer...ʼ Davisʼs eyes flashed red, but because of the mask, they really didnʼt notice.

Nevertheless, he felt a bit strange about Aurelius having thoughts on Tina Roxley when it should mean nothing to him.

ʼI feel uncomfortable...ʼ

Davis paid no heed to Aureliusʼs warning but became confused by his own feelings instead. It made him feel enraged!

ʼF.u.c.k! Iʼll first ask her what she did to me and then deal with this retard Mystic Diviner...ʼ Davis released a breath as he cleared his anger.

”Alright, come with me...” Tina Roxley suddenly spoke.

Davis became taken aback, wondering how this woman could be so bold and brave, but then through analysis with Heart Intent, he could see that she was worried for her people at this moment, wanting to bring him away from them.

Brandis Mercerʼs expression changed.

”No, don-”

”Itʼs fine...” Tina Roxley boldly raised her head before she turned her body and began walking away out of the room.

Davis followed her outside while both Brandis Mercer and Aurelius looked helpless, the latter absolutely terrified as he felt eighth stage undulations from the masked man. However, he wasnʼt sure which cultivation it was as it was vague.

Nevertheless, his expression increasingly became ugly, filled with immense rage and obsession.

”Curses...! He better not be after my niece!!!”
