Divine Emperor of Death Chapter 798: Alliance's Rules

"So are you going to leave or not? I don't have time to keep entertaining you people, and I'm sure that senior would also not bother with you since senior is in seclusion." Davis looked extremely annoyed."What!? Senior is in seclusion!? Why didn't you say that in the beginning!!?" yelled Elder Towerfall in part rage and part confusion.Elder Enye furrowed her brows, thinking that Alchemist Davis could be lying, but she also felt that there was no reason for him to lie as a peak power didn't need a reason to lie. Their mysteriousness also seemed valid with the kind of power they're revealing, so she was rather reluctant to make a move or tread on the fiery rope."I already told you to state the reason for your visit or leave. Is it truly difficult to understand my words?" Davis looked at Elder Towerfall as if he were looking at an idiot.Elder Towerfall could see the blatant contempt on a junior's face, but he held back, his expression turning icy for a split second before becoming normal."Alright... Elder Enye will explain..." Elder Towerfall spat out these words in a strange tone.Seeing Elder Towerfall comply with a strange expression on his face as if he couldn't control his outburst anymore, Elder Enye sighed and spoke."At this point, everyone knows that we're here for the Million Emerald Vines Calamity's nectar, so I won't beat around the bush. We, the Towering Cloud Hall, and the Falling Snow Sect have come to claim our rightful share of the heavenly resource.""Rightful share?" Davis smiled in interest. Follow current on novelenglish.net

Elder Enye waved her hand, and a scroll abruptly appeared in her grasp as it rolled down. She displayed it to Alchemist Davis before her lips moved."Tripartite Alliance, Article 467...""Any heavenly resource that is found in the Tripartite Alliance Territory will be split equally between the three powers in the alliance, and when a heavenly resource is unclaimed in any one of the four Territories occupied by the members of the alliance will also be subjected to a share. If a member of the alliance finds the heavenly resource, there will be a share of ten percent of the heavenly resource for the two members while the territorial owner of the heavenly resource will receive the remaining eighty percent.""Since the Alstreim Family forgo its eighty percent claim on the heavenly resource, we, the Towering Cloud Hall and the Falling Snow Sect, still have a twenty percent claim on the heavenly resource combined.""I hope you understand, Alchemist Davis. According to the alliance's rules, we have a legal claim to the heavenly resource that senior obtained from the Sunset Tear Mountain.""As long as we receive ten percent of the heavenly resource each, we will leave this place," explained Elder Enye with a perfectly calm attitude.'There is something like this?' Davis's lips imperceptibly twitched.He almost had the urge to curse what these cultivators were doing, creating clauses like these instead of battling, but he kept his cool and turned to look at Elder Havle Alstreim, who possessed a scroll on his own hands while his expression periodically contorted.Sensing Alchemist Davis's gaze, Elder Havle Alstreim nodded his head, indicating that what they were saying was the truth before a red hue appeared on his cheeks as he became embarrassed.The rules of the Tripartite Alliance weren't necessarily taught to everyone in the Alstreim Family, and since his jurisdiction was within the Ethren Empire as the Head Envoy, he didn't have the opportunity to learn about the rules of the Tripartite Alliance. It should be better to say that he wasn't interested. Follow current on novel-online.com

This scroll was something he only gained after recently becoming an Elder, so he didn't have the time to go through these so-called Articles that solidified the alliance's existence.In any case, these rules were only placed for benefits so that even if an external member found a heavenly resource in their soil, they would have to hand over eighty percent of the heavenly resource. This remained the best way to protect one's resources that are found in one's land without a battle.As long as the alliance exists, this would help them.However, since the Alstreim Family did not claim the heavenly resource, it became as if it was claimed by the Towering Cloud Hall and the Falling Snow Sect, giving them an advantage over the rules. This made them daring enough to claim twenty percent of the heavenly resource!Davis could only sigh at the fact that Elder Havle Alstreim was ill-informed. If he knew that they had a legal claim, then he would've equally given the Towering Cloud Hall and the Falling Snow Sect attention. He thought that they wouldn't come here and dare to ask about the heavenly resource but to think that to here was a rule such as this...He could tell that this rule was there to protect their own resources from being taken away by the other two allied powers, so it was all for benefits in the end. However, it ended up disadvantageous for him.'Well played...' Davis inwardly let out a sigh.If he rejected them, he would become a bully and evil in the common populace's eyes. This kind of situation would completely ruin the Conferred Queen's image if the facts were twisted. He didn't doubt that the facts could be and would be easily twisted if he were to reject.Nevertheless..."It is true that the heavenly resource is rightfully shared between the three powers of the alliance, but this rule only applies for the three powers of the alliances, and not an external power that is outside the Tripartite Alliance."

"This nectar which you all refer to as a heavenly resource, is obtained by senior with his own power, and not with the help of your three major powers. How does it belong to the Tripartite Alliance? Could it be that even my young mistress belongs to the three powers!?" Davis became 'shocked as asked'!"You! You're twisting the facts!" Elder Towerfall became enraged, "The Conferred Queen clearly isn't a heavenly-""What!? How dare you say that my young mistress isn't heavenly!? You're courting death!" Davis shouted in rage, and he took a step forward as if he was personally going to murder the baldy in front of him."Fuck!" Elder Towerfall cursed as his face contorted.He felt that this junior was taking it too far!"I clearly meant that the Conferred Queen isn't a heavenly resource! Why are you twisting my words!? Don't you dare interrupt me!" He raged, and his bald head actually radiated heat, giving off steam.Davis momentarily became taken aback by that sight, so he failed to retort and gave a chance for the opponent to come back. He could only say that his horizons were truly broadened with the scene he saw in front of him. He also became a little curious about the cultivation technique these people from the Towering Cloud Hall trained in..."Child, everyone can see that you possess a tongue that twists facts, but just don't make it difficult for us." Elder Enye tactfully warned.Davis took a step back and snorted before looking away as if he truly misunderstood Elder Towerfall's words and was embarrassed."We know that senior obtained this heavenly resource, but since it originated in the Alstreim Family Territory, we still possess a claim. Nevertheless, since we knew that it would end in a battle of words with both parties unable to come to a peaceful solution, we decided to solve it using fists as cultivators would do..." Elder Enye's eyes flashed.'There it comes...' Davis inwardly smiled. He was waiting for this!
