Divine Emperor of Death

Chapter 1580 – Imminent

Evelynn and the others felt their hearts tremble as they heard Isabellaʼs excited and hopeful voice resound in their minds.

ʼImpossible...ʼ Ancestor Tirea Snow reveled in disbelief, ʼThe soul sea collapsed, and the soul had shattered. How can a heartbeat still exist or even be heard?ʼ

On the other hand, Ancestor Dian Alstreim also became dumbfounded.

This girl Isabella, what was she trying to pull? Or, because she was the inheritor of an Immortal Inheritance that she was able to see things from different perspectives?

However, Davisʼs women were different. As if gaining a second wind, their eyes were renewed with hope as they recalled the unique life attribute tree Davis was growing with care.

They all stood up in unison and rushed towards the Purple Guest Palace.

Natalya also jerked out of Ancestor Tirea Snowʼs embrace, but looking at the fainted Tina Roxley, whose hair had gone white for some reason, perhaps intense sorrow, she bit her lips and arrived before her, carrying her with her.

Niera looked at the tiny sparkle of flames and lightning, recognizing that it gave off the unique aura Davis used to get her out of the sealed lightning space. She grabbed it when it suddenly shot into her soul sea, but she no longer bothered and flew off.

On the other hand, Fiora grabbed the ominous-looking dark cocoon even though she felt dread when touching it. However, knowing that it was their Nadia, she clenched her teeth and took it away.

Looking at them leave, Claire and the others were also bewildered yet deeply hopeful. Clenching their teeth, they also rushed towards the Purple Guest Palace.

Mival Silverwind didnʼt know what was happening as he wasnʼt informed. However, looking at the aftermath, he knew it wasnʼt his place to interfere. There were so many things to do. It wasnʼt over yet.

It was either fight or flight for him because the Alstreim Family was in the red zone. It could be attacked at any time, invaded, and callously betrayed by many people, including him. However, recalling how Davis faced all powerhouses despite being in the eighth stage and dared to die for everyone when the soul domain threatened to kill everyone, even him even though in truth it might be for his family, he clenched his teeth and looked at Ancestor Dian Alstreim.

”What should we do?”

Ancestor Dian Alstreim turned to look at Mival Silverwind, his expression solemn yet profoundly grisly.

”I WANT TO KILL!”

”Calm down! You have to be composed no matter what!”

”But...!”

Mival Silverwind tried to calm Ancestor Dian Alstreim while Ancestor Dian Alstreim appeared enraged yet trying to control himself as he was told. There was an intense impulse to just abandon his duties and wreak havoc as a rogue powerhouse.

If he put his mind to it as a Mid-Level Law Rune Stage Powerhouse, those powers who came today would be severely afraid of sending their youths outside to train.

”Indeed, you have to maintain your composure, Dian Alstreim.”

At this moment, Honorable Elder Julian Kruse descended along with Honorable Elder Mihangel Evans.

”You people dare to say that!?” Ancestor Dian Alstreim snapped as if he didnʼt want to hear this from them.

”I assure you.” Honorable Elder Julian Kruse didnʼt seem to be taken aback but still possessed that solemn expression on his face, ”I bear witness to this tragedy.”

”I will not let anyone attack your Alstreim Family. However, there are just too many higher powers involved, especially the other Dragon Family Patriarchs. Theyʼll be here soo- No, the entire Four Great Dragon Families would be here. If I donʼt assemble at least two of the Four Great Righteous Sects, it would be impossible to suppress them.”

Ancestor Dian Alstreimʼs expression became hideous, ”They want more? So be it! Iʼll disband the entire Alstreim Family then!”

”Donʼt be so hasty.” Honorable Elder Julian Kruse still tried to advise, ”The ones who came to attack you all died in a mysterious manner even though it is still connectable to your number one youth who died. Therefore, it wouldnʼt matter if you disband. Your people would still get killed.”

Ancestor Dian Alstreim clenched his fists heavily, but even till this moment, he still couldnʼt get over Davisʼs death. He hoped that he was still alive, but he wasnʼt foolish enough to take part in those childrenʼs delusional hope.

He mused that they took Davis to that strange life-attribute tree, but Davis already told them that it was exclusively used to have people reincarnate, which he was shocked to hear before. As far as he considered, it was quite useless.

What reincarnation? Such a thing... it wouldnʼt be the same Davis as he thought of him like he was his own spoiled grandson.

He died!

Nevertheless, taking in the information provided, he realized one thing.

He wouldnʼt probably be alive to see the next day. His fists loosened, appearing as if they had calmed down.

Honorable Elder Julian Kruse nodded at this self-control.

”However, donʼt worry. We secretly called our sects quite a while ago. They should be here any second as we speak, faster than the Dragon Families, I believe...”

Ancestor Dian Alstreimʼs eyes widened, but he still didnʼt seem convinced.

”What do you want me to do?”

”Honestly speaking, casualties would be inevitable unless you can call Dragon Queen Isabella. However, I donʼt think she is in any mood to defend but kill as she lost that legendary youth, her husband, which would make things much worse. Therefore, the only thing you can do now is to use the city-wide barrier again and brace for impact, leaving the Dragon Families to us and the Poison Lord Villaʼs remnants if at all they come. You should just concentrate on protecting your people while I will try my best to do the same as an elder of the Heaven Gazing Sect, enacting justice.”

”I understand...”

Ancestor Dian Alstreim reluctantly replied.

The two Honorable Elders nodded before they gained some distance, leaving Ancestor Dian Alstreim to his devices. Mival Silverwind did the same.

Ancestor Dian Alstreim took a deep breath before he released it.

”Tirea, forgive me if I die today. I donʼt think I can act like an Ancestor any longer...”

A hand abruptly grasped his hand, holding him tightly as it provided warmth.

”As Ancestors, we were never afraid to die, much less when we are together now.”

Ancestor Dian Alstreimʼs fists trembled before they stopped shaking.

Who were they kidding? They still wanted to live, but after something like that happened, they didnʼt have the face to keep on living.

A forced smile appeared on his face as he turned to look at his wife today, who looked so beautiful, yet their grand occasion was nothing but ruined.

”Iʼm truly sorry. I couldnʼt even give you a child.”

Ancestor Tirea Snow couldnʼt help but giggle, ”Thatʼs my line. However, I think we already had a grandson, no?”

”True...”

Ancestor Dian Alstreim couldnʼt help but wryly chuckle.

He recalled that brat who thought he had everything in his grasp, acting arrogant, always having that dislikeable smile that irked him first but grew on him later on.

ʼFuck...!ʼ

How could he have let him die!?

Ancestor Dian Alstreim hid his eyes behind his palm as he trembled.

”That stupid brat shouldʼve just run away when I said so... That is what he gets from acting so brave, trying to take on everything when in my opinion, he shouldʼve just used as shields first...! If not, why are we even his elders!?”

Ancestor Tirea Snow couldnʼt help tremble while she held her husbandʼs hands. Her bosoms heaved while tears finally fell from her eyes. The only matter they didnʼt do was cry out loud, but the damage was sound. It was like there was a hole in their heart that could never be filled.

She bit her lips, wiping off her tears as she turned to look at her people behind.

”Rosella Frostblight. As the Ancestor of the Falling Snow Sect, I declare you and your descendant Tanya Frostblight will take care of the Falling Snow Sect from the moment I die.”

”Ancestor...”

Rosella Frostblight couldnʼt say anything as she saw her Ancestor cry. She looked towards the side and also saw her descendant Tanya Frostblight still weeping for a long time already, her eyes appearing to be bloodshot.

This lass, had she fallen in love with that legendary youth?

In the distance, Dalila Leehan also appeared the same. However, she didnʼt cry but looked listless, not able to believe the events that happened today.

Her powerʼs Ancestor, Ancestor Krane Parazen, was just about to get out of this mess when his expression changed as he realized that he was too late to leave again!

*Bzzzz!~*

Suddenly, in the distance, High-Level Law Rune Stage undulations blazed towards them as both the Ancestorʼs expressions changed. However, looking at the robes the newcomers wore, they relaxed.

It was none other than the Heaven Gazing Sect and Heaven Mandate Temple!

However, only two of them came, causing them to be

”Where are the others? Only you two?”

Honorable Elder Julian Kruse couldnʼt help but ask with doubt.

”Theyʼll be here within a few minutes since another, no, many unusual matters came up. We were close by compared to others, so we were able to make it soon. So? Where are the enemies?”

Honorable Elder Julian Kruseʼs lips twitched.

Unusual matters? Who cared about unusual matters!?

He knew that his power had many responsibilities, but for them to arrive this late, even he felt his face burning as he could feel Ancestor Dian Alstreimʼs burning stare almost lighting up his robes in flames.

Even though he mightʼve used a non-emergency means to contact them in order to hide that he contacted them from the Poison Lord and the others, wasnʼt their response too slow?

Nevertheless, rejoicing at the fact that the Dragon Families hadnʼt arrived yet, he pointed in a direction and harrumphed.

”Tell them to come quickly no matter what!”

Looking at the abandoned corpses that no one dared to near, the newcomerʼs eyes couldnʼt help but severely twitch.

”War is imminent...”

Three words left Honorable Elder Julian Kruseʼs mouth, causing them to understand the gravity of this situation! They instantly took out their messaging talismans and began to urge their sects to make haste!
