Divine Emperor of Death

Chapter 5058 A New Pill Palace

”Xinyi, whatʼs wrong? Did your mother, Jade, call you to call me?”

Drake hurriedly stood up and ran all the way to them with some embarrassment etched on his face. He then glanced at his son.

”Aris, whyʼd you bring your sister all the way here? You want a beating?”

”Father, itʼs not like I can stop her with how you spoil her!” Aris Blackburn complained with a fuming expression on his face.

Everyone looked at Drake with strange expressions, thinking that Davis and Drake really had unique ways of nurturing their children. They spoiled them so much that the children dared to make faces as though they were owed something.

If it were their children, they would silently stand by their sides, not daring to talk, much less make eye contact, and even show an angered expression.

Drake wryly laughed before he looked at his daughter, ”Alright, alright, what are you here for? You canʼt come here alone without being an adult.”

”Arenʼt you here? Why canʼt we come?”

Xinyi Blackburn complained. Her lovely blue hair fell down in loose waves, her lips demure, and her face lovely and appealing with her small nose, phoenix eyes, and a sharp look just like her mother, Jade Sua. On the other hand, Aris Blackburn appeared to have golden hair and resembled his father a lot.

Their undulations were also above the Mortal Realm. However, they appeared to be Transcendents. Moreover, their auras were unique as though they possessed physiques.

Drake looked at them with pride and joy.

Although he had twelve wives, he only had two children. After he became an Anarchic Divergent because of absorbing annihilative heavenly yang, the chances of him getting his women pregnant had dropped to the abyss, so he spoiled his children rotten.

Within the Blackburn Family, these two teenagers were extremely influential and had their way in whatever they wanted, even getting Azure Dragon Blood Essence and Seven-Colored Phoenix Blood Essence from the Davis Family Treasure to aid in their cultivation.

Xinyi Blackburn didnʼt wait for Drake to reply. She quickly said after inhaling the scent of her drunk father with a frown.

”Father, donʼt make me look down on you. You didnʼt even pick up your messaging talisman in your drunken stupor. Your worshipers are making a scene again in front of the gates. Come deal with it. Donʼt let them trouble our mothers.”

Drakeʼs expression churned.

His messaging talismans were ringing all the time, so he had two rings for them. If the talisman resonated from his main ring, he would attend, but if it resonated from the other, he might or might not attend it. It turns out he might have accidentally switched positions with the ring after last nightʼs fun.

He inwardly sighed and turned to look at his brothers, ”You all heard that. I got my worshipers searching me, so I have to go.”

”Why are you bragging?” Fenren looked speechless.

”Bragging? Iʼm regretting picking up this cultivation manual. Itʼs all my fault for being a good deity who enriches the lives of my worshipers.”

Drake straightened his robes as though that would restore whatever dignity he had just lost. His lips curled into a half-smirk, but the twitch at the corner betrayed him.

Zenflame snorted, crossing his arms as flames faintly flickered across his sleeves, ”A good deity? Youʼre even more virile than us. Itʼs only a matter of time before you touch your female worshipers and expand your harem.”

Drake scowled as he closed his daughterʼs ears.

On the other hand, Aris Blackburn chuckled.

Rocksunder let out a low chuckle, his confident frame shaking slightly, ”At least his trouble comes with entertainment. Those worshipers of his almost tore down a poor sectʼs gate last time.”

Fenren shook his head, his expression still speechless but now tinged with amusement, ”You cultivate a path that makes people worship you, then complain about being worshiped. Truly brilliant.”

Soaren leaned against the table, eyes half-lidded as if he had seen this play out too many times, ”You could just ignore them.”

”I tried that once,” Drake replied, ”They started offering sacrifices to get my attention. Do you know how awkward it is to reject offerings? They look like they are going to be abandoned.”

Behind him, Aris Blackburn folded his arms, his golden hair catching the light as he frowned, ”Father, can we go already? Theyʼre getting louder.”

Xinyi Blackburn stood beside him, her phoenix eyes sharp as she glanced at Drake with clear dissatisfaction, ”If you delay any longer, Mother Jade will personally come to get you. You know what that means.”

Drakeʼs expression stiffened.

He knew what that means but he couldnʼt tell the children as their ages were still low. Even if they became adults, he still wouldnʼt be able to tell them.

He took their hands and bid farewell to his brothers despite the cries of the embarrassed children.

Lest Mistwalker looked confused, ”That little lass said Jade. Is it that Jade Aurora, who is rumored to have entered the Davis Family, possibly has an intimate connection with brother Davis?”

A green-robed man nearly spat out wine. He was none other than Kronos Alistair. Smiling wryly, he turned to look at Lest Mistwalker, ”Little brother, are you trying to sow discord between the Davis Family and the Blackburn Family? Jade Aurora is Davisʼs wife, while Jade Sua is Drakeʼs wife.”

”Ah. I canʼt be blamed for this. Jade is such a common name, although gorgeous and sublime. And who are you calling little brother? Iʼm your senior here.”

Lest Mistwalker scoffed while Kronos Alistair embarrassedly smiled.

Soaren chuckled, ”Haha, Drake also has a human wife named Freya, while Davis has a magical beast phoenix who is named Freya. Rumor is it that sheʼs grown even more powerful than me as a unique fire-focused phoenix named the Scarlet Immolation Phoenix, dammit.”

”Wait.” Alexi raised his brows as he looked at Kronos Alistair, ”Arenʼt you new here? Howʼd you know about Lady Jade Sua?

”What do you mean? Isnʼt it common to know the names of the people I shouldnʼt offend here? Didnʼt your wife get you the list?”

”List? What list?”

Everyone looked speechless while Kronos Alistair blinked, only then realizing his Nadija did all the paperwork to help him out here. She was indeed such a sweet wife that he didnʼt deserve. Just before he could yap about his wife and praise her achievements about how she saved Davis from being destroyed by the Venerable Knights, Alexi still looked at him suspiciously, his expression flushed.

”I heard you were both prisoners once. What are you two doing here in this gathering?”

Lest Mistwalker and Kronos Alistair also looked at each other before laughing out loud.

They totally forgot they were once prisoners since they enjoyed their freedom here. Now, they enjoyed extremely good benefits because of their usefulness.

Kronos Alistair had his time avatars implanted outside the sanctuary, so if someone killed it, he would quickly know even before it could take place in ʼhisʼ reality.

There was no need to say anything about Lest Mistwalker.

His formation arts were widely acknowledged and depended on. He was the best formation master in the entire sanctuary, although that could be argued since there was a new formation master in town. In fact, this person could be even more talented than Lest Mistwalker.

Fenren tried to recall, but Soaren instantly asked, ”Isnʼt Layla Mistwalker with you? Is she still a prisoner? What did you do to her?”

”Oh, sheʼs my woman now.” Lest Mistwalker answered casually.

The otherʼs jaw dropped. They watched him grin evilly.

From it, they definitely knew he had his way with that supreme genius woman whom even Greater Realm supreme geniuses would drool at!

”What about your little sister?” Fenren hurriedly asked, ”Didnʼt she set up a new pill palace outside your mansion to help the Davis Family make pills and take orders? I havenʼt visited yet, but my family might need cheaper pills since I have a lot of children who need to cultivate better so they could attract the eyes of the Davis Familyʼs children. Didnʼt anyone go there yet?”

Many were speechless seeing Fenren openly admit to it, but they also heard he announced Davisʼs wife, Panqaʼs child, to be the next heir of the Jadelight Family, leaving all of them dumbfounded. It seemed like he even went and begged Davis to hand over the baby once it was born, the reasoning being that he has so many children, and could afford to just give one away for a good friend, and itʼs all good.

However, as usual, Davis denied and sent him flying instead.

In the end, Fenren could only pester Davis and make him give in to a concession that if Davis Familyʼs children caught the eyes of someone from the Jadelight Family, then he shouldnʼt interfere.

Lest Mistwalker nodded, ”Yes, my sister has set up the Misty Pill Palace. You can all go to her and request pills to be made. Our family doesnʼt lack pill recipes, so she knows a lot of pills. However, youʼre all special, so I doubt she will be able to help. However, if Lady Dalila helps and you know what your body wants, then the two of them will be able to create miracles, even allowing you to enter the Grand Ancestral Beast Rank.”

”…!”

The magical beasts were shaken.

”Naturally, she has many ways to help the other races too. For example-”

Soon, as Lest Mistwalker continued bragging, he belatedly realized that only he was left, making him dumbfounded before he growled.

”Hey! Donʼt flirt with my little sister! Iʼll have you know she secretly likes a person you canʼt afford to offend!”
