Divine Emperor of Death Chapter 365: Scheming Behind Their Backs

In the abiding yet uncomfortable silence, Logan clenched his teeth as he reluctantly answered, "I understand that I am the one who betrayed her love and trust..."His gaze eyed Davis while he pointed his fingers at Violet, "However, she... they have no involvement in this!"Violet became shocked.She was being supported? Finally being recognized?Logan's words undoubtedly meant that he was leaning on their side rather than the Empress, which was always the case in the past few years.However, after the relationship between the Emperor and the Empress deteriorated, he came to rely on them while spending more time with them.Violet felt glad that the person she loved relied on her, but she could also feel that they concubines, were worsening the situation by just being with the Emperor.Nevertheless, she couldn't help but feel conflicted by the situation they were facing because of them.Logan dropped his hand and groaned, "If Claire wanted to take action against them, she would've done it long ago."Davis nodded his head in agreement, "You know about this fact, so why have you not reconciled with mother? Forget about me, do you think Clara, Diana, and Edward can stand you two separating like this?""I did, I tri...""You haven't tried hard enough," Davis cut him short and even repeated it twice, "You haven't tried hard enough."Logan turned angry, "You! What do you know!?""What I know?" Davis smiled mockingly at Logan as he pointed at who he was supposed to call second mother; Violet."While you were insulted by my mother, you also had numerous women in your harem like her to rely upon, depend on, and even finding solace in their embrace.""However, who does mother have? Only you!"Logan froze on the spot.It was true. Who else could Claire rely on? Find solace from? What about warmth? Only he could give her but it had been a year since he last slept with her.Their physical intimacy was nowhere to be seen.Where would she even find the courage and endurance to ignore his misbehavior?Logan turned guilty as he avoided his son's gaze as if it were Claire's. He couldn't help but feel that he avoided Claire's gaze like he always had been."I apologize for being rude. Before I came here, you were in a moment of physical intimacy with her, right?" Davis didn't let him speak but continued, "Forger her, I know you spend time with your other women every day while not cultivating in seclusion.""However, what about mother? She is alone while being secluded in the name of entering closed-door cultivation. Nevertheless, who knows if she is really cultivating or despairing day and night that you no longer bother with her?"Logan's expression turned pale. Claire's sad face flashed past his mind, making him tremble from head to toe.If that was the case... Then he... he felt like a despicable bastard!Davis took a deep breath as he then pointed at Logan, "If I were mother, I would've killed you by now..." Follow current on novelenglish.net

Logan turned aghast, "You! Weren't you the one who told me to take responsibility!?"Davis inwardly groaned, 'Putting the blame on me right now, really?'However, he understood why his father told so."I said that from my perspective but do you think that from mother's perspective that it was the right thing to do?" Davis smiled wryly, "There's no right answer in this world to situations like these..."Logan's gaze slowly averted, his fists loosening its grip, "I know that...""Father, even if mother became angry with you, she has the right to do so because of your misconduct. On the other hand, she only insults you from time to time..."Logan let out a defeated chuckle, "If that was the case, heh, I can withstand it, even you insult me! Except, her gaze is no longer like the way she looked at me before..."His voice went small before he uttered in a gloomy tone, "It's as if she looks at me with disgust...""Before long, I could no longer stand her actions and lashed out at her a year ago, and from that day onwards, she no longer bothered about me, fully concentrating on her cultivation."Davis shook his head, "Well, that's better if you ask me. What if she went with another man instead of concentrating on her cultivation? You'd like it right?"Logan's face turned ugly.Davis quickly replied, "Of course not. Then think about how she feels you being with other women. It's quite rare for a woman of her caliber to even allow you to be with other women."Logan heaved a sigh of helplessness, "Are you, my royal father? Coming to advise me whenever you want to?"Still, he couldn't help but feel whatever his son said made sense, even shaking up his heart and mind.He wondered what Claire was doing right now."I'm more like a senior in life to you..." Davis shrugged."The experience you have with dealing with these problems... I bet you had hundreds of women in your previous life..."Davis coughed instantly, "Idiot, read some books for heaven's sake!"Logan smilingly shook his head, "I'm not going to believe you...""Suit yourself..." Davis replied and shrugged again.In any case, he was currently faithful to Evelynn and no longer had any thoughts on other women.Of course, as a male, his eyes might be temporarily attracted to other female but that was it, nothing more, nothing less."Then since you already finished advising me, what do you have in mind? You already have thought about it, didn't you?" Logan exuded a wry smile. How can he not know what his son is scheming at after all this advice and input?Davis smiled as a mysterious grin formed on his lips, "It's nothing... Just have a death match with mother like any other cultivator to settle your differences...""What!?"Logan's eyes widened and almost fell out of his sockets."Come in..." A melodious voice sounded out that sounded like music to the one who listened to it, sending in them to trance. However, if one listened closely, they would also find that was voice was burdened with a form of tiredness. Follow current on novel-online.com

The door to the room opened and a curvaceous figure entered inside, slightly bowing as she spoke, "Mother...""Evelynn," Claire spoke guiltily, "Sorry for making you wait..."Evelynn shook her head, "I understand that mother is putting all her attention on cultivation..."'The way she worded it...' Claire narrowed her eyes as a feeling of being distant welled up in her heart."What did you come here for?" Claire asked as she inwardly sighed.She couldn't help but feel everyone was distancing themselves from her. There wasn't a day she didn't think about Logan, however, only his adulterous attitude would flash past her mind, making her look at him in disgust.Evelynn stayed silent as she considered Davis's opinion again. In the end, she determined herself to follow her husband's words.With a remarkably hesitant expression on her face, she mulled over as she tried to open her mouth but couldn't.Claire saw that Evelynn was somewhat hesitant to speak so she turned confused, "What is it?"Evelynn took a deep breath before finally voicing out the matter she had contained in, "Father-in-law wants to divorce you...""Wha!?"Claire stood up in shock as her eyes widened, her eyelids trembling heavily."What?" Logan looked at Davis as if he was looking at a fool, "Are you insane?"Davis smiled like an idiot, "Well, putting aside whether if I am insane or not, you should start worrying about your life being taken away from you in a few seconds..."Logan turned confused, "What do you mean?"Davis just smiled not willing to speak. He slowly moved away from Logan with backward steps.Suddenly, a voice filled with infinite anger echoed out, "Logan, you bastard! Get out of there and show your disgusting face to me!"Logan was stunned. He turned his gaze to Davis, only to hear him saying."Well... mother has accepted the life and death battle."Davis shook his head sadly and his body disappeared yet his voice echoed out, "Aren't you both at the Peak-Level Law Seed Stage? Do well to end this farce once and for all...""Since you won't come to me, I'll make you come out!" Claire's angry voice resounded again.Logan's eyes widened as his body flickered."Ahh!" Violet screamed as she was thrown out of the room.Logan extended his hand and threw her away with his soul force while suddenly powerful energy undulations came rushing at him, destroying the walls in the process.*BOOOOMMM!~*The resulting explosion resounded out and Emperor's Room, along with some parts of the quarters lit up in flames."Violet!" Logan flew outside the castle as he looked at his slightly burned hands, crackling with lightning. Follow current on storynovel.net

"What are you doing!? Claire! Are you crazy!?" He yelled angrily.From the black smoke rising from the half-destroyed Emperor's Room, Claire's silhouette slowly emerged as her eyes showed a fierce glint.In her hands was a shining Low-Level Sky Grade Sword, flaming with increasingly burning heat, filled with a grand blaze.Her small mouth opened as she let out a dry laugh, "Crazy...?""Stop!" A despairing shout suddenly echoed causing Claire to stop in her tracks.Both of them turned in that direction and saw Violet, kneeling on the floor while trying to get up.The wall near her was broken and the fires that spread to her side were mysteriously stopped by something as if there was someone blocking it.Logan heaved a sigh of relief as he saw her unharmed figure. He thought that she had also received the brunt of the attack after he threw her away from harm's way; the flames, but it now seemed like she was truly unharmed.All of the inhabitants of the Royal Castle, whether the maids, servants or even the guards hurriedly left while the Royal Guards surrounded the vicinity in a quick sweep yet when they saw who it was currently making trouble, they all turned away and helped the inhabitants to evacuate.Even some onlookers around the Royal Castle gathered and started to spectate in astonishment, fear, and novelty."Empress! Please stop this, I'll leave!" Violet shouted as her feminine voice turned hoarse.Claire shifted her wrist and pointed the sword at Violet, "You all took him away from me and now you have the gall to say that you'll leave as if you've done nothing?""I... Empr..." Violet tried to explain but was cut short."Shut your mouth!" Claire clenched her teeth as her arms shuddered. Her expression turned fierce as she launched herself at Logan, "I'll kill you all!"*Clang!!~*Logan took out a sword and blocked her fiery swing aimed at his head, "Claire, stop this madness!"The sword clash separated them but Claire forcefully engaged him, trying to slash him into pieces.Thankfully, the weapon Logan used was also at the Low-Level Sky Grade, completely capable of withstanding the blows Claire slashed at him.*Clang!!~*When they once again clashed, Claire extended her other hand and a wave of intense flame threatened to burn Logan into ashes.Logan's face turned pale. He quickly executed the Thunder Cloud Movement in the air, escaping the incoming onslaught of her blazing flames.The flames spread far and wide but it failed to harm him, only managing to disperse in the air after a short while."Claire, stop this! Let's talk!" Logan shouted as he retreated to a safe distance high above the Royal Castle.He didn't want to endanger any subjects and bring out casualties from this meaningless life and death battle.Claire lowered her hand and looked above as she muttered shallowly, "Even though I believed in you..."Her eyes turned moist as her sight became blurry. With a boom, she charged above without any restraints, her cry filled with boundless reluctance, "Ahhhhhh!!"*BOOOOMMM!!!~**Shhhhh!!~*Sounds of blazing explosions resounding and lightning crackling echoed throughout the Royal Capital.
