Divine Emperor of Death

Chapter 3037 Contracts Established

After much back and forth, the participating powers finally agreed to pay the price to enter.

With the Dragon, Phoenix, and Kirin Alliances backing the Zyrus Family temporarily, the other alliances couldnʼt say much. Besides, the Aurora Cloud Gate also worked for their spots, so it was unlikely that they would do anything, such as bullying the Zyrus Family, forcing them all to pay.

A few members left to bring back High-Level Immortal Crystal Vein Cores, while some seemed to have already anticipated and brought a few, although it was still not enough, leaving them bartering with the others as going back to their powers could be a long trip.

Davis didnʼt have anything to do here, but since he couldnʼt return to the Aurora Cloud Gate, he stayed, mingling with his brothers.

He thanked the Starlight Jade Wolf King, Golden Crow Clanʼs Patriarch, and the Obsidian Crystal Turtle Clanʼs Patriarch but also sincerely apologized for their loss. After all, their Ancestors also died.

”Brother Davis, I know you would probably be moving with your group, but I also ask you to take care of my clanʼs youngsters.”

”Well, I can provide them with aid when I am able to, but other than that, they need to be compliant with my commands if I were to protect them.”

”Indeed. There is no responsibility without authority. Iʼll make sure to beat those headstrong youths into shape for you.”

Patriarch Fenren Jadelight laughed, causing Davis to smilingly nod his head.

He knew the youngsters being sent were probably Young Masters or Clan Lords if not candidates who failed to climb up to that position. They would all be powerful one way or another, but he wasnʼt worried.

The other two Patriarchs also asked him of the same, and he agreed.

Although he stated that he was not accountable for the causalities created by Wicked Tamer Jaxon Harrow, he knew if he didnʼt wasnʼt there at that time, perhaps the latter wouldʼve never made a move.

That slightly made him feel guilty as he didnʼt wish for his allies to be hurt.

These brothers were staking their lives and even their powersʼ future for him while the Obsidian Crystal Turtle Clan believed in some strange prophecy. Regardless, he gave his word to take care of them when needed but made it clear that he wouldnʼt babysit them.

Patriarch Soaren Goldsun also told him that he had sent many vials of Golden Crow Blood Essence at the Immortal King Grade and Immortal Emperor Grade of the topmost quality they possess, causing him to thank his brother once again.

However, he felt like Niera wouldnʼt be able to digest it since she was still pregnant with his child. Regardless, he knew having it would allow her to pave her path better. He believed that she would use the blood essence better as she was a woman who didnʼt settle for weaker flames, wanting more firepower.

After discussing a few more things with them, he left shortly and walked towards Patriarch Yinakin Zyrus.

However, he suddenly stopped, turning to look towards a white-robed man. He narrowed his eyes at this person before he smiled.

”Are you from the Tyriel Family of the Northern Divide?”

”Indeed.” The white-robed man returned a smile to Davis, ”My name is Rylan Tyriel. I have heard about you from my younger sister, Rea Tyriel. Unfortunately, she was pulled out from the Aurora Cloud Gate because of the Candidacy, which will soon cause chaos to erupt even if no one wants.”

His voice echoed with elegance and gentleness, causing Davis to nod. It was no wonder he felt like this person appeared similar to Rea Tyriel. He was her brother, although he didnʼt know how far they were separated.

He panned his gaze and saw Rylan Tyriel with a few other characters from different powers. They all seemed to be exuding powerful auras, and this was the same group that the Blazing Thunderlight Sectʼs Founder, Fairy Thunderblaze had an eye on.

If he were to guess, he imagined that they were from powers that owned Domains. The Tyriel Family owned a Domain, after all. Otherwise, Rylan Tyriel staying with them would make only a little sense.

Perhaps, one of them could be very well strong as the dead Nyx Godwin.

”Well met.”

Nonetheless, Davis cupped his hands at them before he walked away, not initiating a conversation with them. They also didnʼt stop him but watched him leave.

While Davis left, he couldnʼt help but smirk.

He could feel danger from one of them, and he knew very well what it was, causing him to lick his lips. Still, he turned to look at the Aurora Cloud Gateʼs entourage and saw that the disciples still hadnʼt arrived, although he imagined that they were in the battleship since it was safer that way.

Most disciples still seemed to be in battleships. Thatʼs what had saved most of them from Wicked Tamer Jaxon Harrowʼs sneak attack.

Soon, Davis reached Patriarch Yinakin Zyrus.

The man was now surrounded by a ton of people asking him questions left and right, although he seemed to be lively and brushing the questions away if they concerned the secret realm. But upon sensing him, he quickly excused himself from the others and rushed towards him.

”Emperor of Death, have you thought about allowing the Zyrus Family to rejoin the Central Primesky Alliance?” He asked eagerly, causing Davis to chuckle.

”Do you want to be on my sinking ship that badly?”

”Who knows? The surface of the sea might be full of treasures.”

Patriarch Yinakin Zyrus also chuckled, causing Davis to shake his head and spread his hands.

”It looks like you have changed a lot, that I almost want to check if Vile Enchanter possessed you.”

”No way. If such an existence possessed me, then I wouldnʼt look out for the Zyrus Family at all.”

”Perhaps.”

Davis chuckled as he looked at Patriarch Yinakin Zyrus become pale before sighing lightly.

”But Iʼll be straightforward with you since you stated your wishes. I love Yilla. That much, I think I have made it clear, but she wants you dead. What are you going to do about it?”

”Eh?”

Patriarch Yinakin Zyrus became stunned, ”Did she truly say such a thing…?”

Davis shook his head, ”She said she wanted to take down the entire Zyrus Family like a vengeful soul when she tried her chances with me back in that room, although she hasnʼt stated anything like that ever since. Arenʼt you lucky that I gained back her spirit?”

”Yes, yes.” Patriarch Yinakin Zyrus gravely nodded, ”I am aware that it was my blunder. If I can do anything for her that will allow her to forgive me, then please donʼt hesitate to say.”

”I donʼt know how much you have changed, turning a new leaf or simply looking for a beneficial relationship. Iʼm fine with the latter but donʼt expect me to go far and above for your power as I do for my brothers. If you wish to have my trust, then start writing some apology letters and send them to the Aurora Cloud Gate where my Yilla is, and depending on her answer, I might do something about your familyʼs position.”

”If you think thatʼs overbearing of me, then feel free to stay where you are.”

”No, no. I will do it. I will write apology letters.”

Patriarch Yinakin Zyrusʼs cheeks went red. When had he ever needed to write apology letters?

Still, he appeared determined.

Davis nodded. Patriarch Yinakin Zyrus had promised him rights over the secret realm, but clearly, he came up with another brilliant plan at that time to have everything under control while he benefited from them. Davis also believed that he was a part of that plan, where he gave them an alliance to belong to and be protected, which was the Central Primesky Alliance that was slowly growing stronger along with him.

”Needless to say, you will tell me what I should watch out for in the secret realm.”

Davis sent a soul transmission, causing Patriarch Yinakin Zyrus to appear troubled.

”This… Iʼve already said everything I know.”

”…?”

”However, I believe there is a treasure that is beyond Immortal Emperor Grade as it was clued.”

”…!?”

”But donʼt be hasty. I believe that this was something done by the aboriginals to bait us, so Iʼm not truly sure.”

Patriarch Yinakin Zyrus warned with a worried expression before giving more details of what the clue looked like. It seemed to be a map, although it wasnʼt as same as a childʼs drawing, leaving Davis befuddled.

Shortly after, Davis left.

He turned to look back and saw that Tina and Bylai were clearly gazing at him with pride since everyone more or less gave respect or stayed clear of him like he was the plague.

”Look…”

Suddenly, Bylai pointed elsewhere with excitement, causing Davis to turn to look again, finally seeing the members the Aurora Cloud Gate had chosen for the secret realm.

They walked behind Elder Aradiel Furiose.

His expression naturally turned into a proud smile as he saw Lea, Dalila, and Sophie successfully pass their tests. However, his expression turned stunned as he saw Myria and Bing Luli appear along with a few other men and women, their numbers totaling fifteen.
