Divine Emperor of Death Chapter 877: Exchange of Words

"That's right!"Davis didn't object, "An ant is essentially a slave that is born to take care of the queen and its colony, but on the other hand, we humans are born with a free will that is able to think, thrive, and adapt for itself!""No matter how long we live, the fear of death will always exist even if it is a tiny yet insignificant thought! Or do you think that the immortals crave to die since they are rumored to possess an extremely long lifespan?""That's why I believe that an ant's life and death may be insignificant when compared to us, but can't it be the same when our life and death is compared to an immortal existence?"Ancestor Dian Alstreim became taken aback and couldn't help but find himself nodding to this answer."We don't need to overthink about life and death. It is too presumptuous of us to even think deeply about it." Davis nodded back."As long as you live, make the most of it. When you know that it's your time to die, go out with a dazzling light or die peacefully with your loved ones by your side. You can't think about any of this if you were to die. Hence, live as you will, and step forward into the cultivation journey to break through the shackles of life and death!""Who knows? Perhaps in the future, you might find yourself becoming a being who has transcended life and death!""..." Follow current on novelenglish.net

The hall became silent from the Conferred Queen Protector's passionate speech. Although they understood only a bit of it and even possessed skepticism, by the end of the speech, even they felt their blood boil!Davis didn't think his opinion on life and death was universally correct. He simply gave his opinion, and whatever he thought was apt in his mind. As for whether it is wrong or not, his own opinion might change in the future, so he was unconcerned to his own ramblings.He had already gambled once with this life, becoming nervous that he would really die. He had once crossed that line and no longer bothered about death but only care about how he should live and survive. If he died, he died.What's the use of thinking about one's own death?In any case, he was prepared to answer any kind of question. Well, he had some confidence in at least most of the questions. He had already finished taking in the knowledge of the Ethren Empire's Imperial Library after all.His world view could have said to be slightly expanded.After this, Davis answered whatever Ancestor Dian Alstreim asked. Their discussion was something everyone listened to with apt attention. Their conversations practicality pulled everyone in as it mostly concerned understandable topics such as cultivation, killings, and spirits.Sometimes, they disapproved of the Conferred Queen's viewpoint, but at some other times, they could tell that their Ancestor wasn't all right like they initially thought and worshipped him to be.They even discussed the dark speck of light in the skies, which has now seemed to be termed as 'Calamity Light'. If Ancestor Dian Alstreim hadn't mentioned it first, Davis wouldn't have known about it. Fortunately, no one found any discrepancy in his words.Of course, it wasn't just so one-sided. Davis asked questions as well, to which Ancestor Dian Alstreim received and answered well. Follow current on novel-online.com

Unknowingly, Davis found himself normally conversing with Ancestor Dian Alstreim, sometimes laughing, sometimes becoming solemn. In short, they exchanged their perspectives and got to know a little about each other, or at least they thought that they got to know each other a little bit.On the other hand, Davis's side was absolutely flabbergasted.When did Davis get this knowledgeable about the First Layer? They couldn't help but find themselves admiring his ability to learn. While they were concentrating on cultivation and forgo educating themselves because they didn't have time, he knew most of the things they didn't know about.They became immensely proud of him, especially Logan and Claire. It was their son who was casually speaking to an ancestor-level character as if they were equals."What do you think about the Nine Eastern Territories? Especially the Alstreim Family..." Ancestor Dian Alstreim suddenly posed this question.Davis creased his brows. He didn't know why he was being asked this question. After all, he was an outsider, and his opinion might not be appreciated, but he went with answering it anyway."Nine Eastern Territories? Perhaps, they would fall within a month if rare and heavenly resources were to appear in bulk. They are nothing but a tiny boat floating in the seas, and its passengers don't even know about the immensity of heaven and earth."Ancestor Dian Alstreim nodded, but the youths who understood it became a bit unsatisfied.Were the people from the large Territories so arrogant and presumptuous? They felt that they wouldn't lose against the younger generation experts, but when they cast a look at Princess Isabella and Alchemist Davis, their confidence was shattered!Davis continued, "As for the Alstreim Family, I heard that the inner struggle is at large and never-ending? In any case, if it is true and if it keeps up, then it is only a matter of course for the Alstreim Family to fall to its own machinations." Follow current on storynovel.net

The numerous faces in the Grand Welcoming Hall changed. Most of them felt as if someone was pointing their fingers on their faces, making them imperceptibly lower their heads and avoid eye-contact with the Ancestor.However, Grand Elders and Elders became angry.How could outsiders butt in their family affairs? Wasn't this inappropriate and overstepping one's bounds?"Protector couldn't be any more right!" Ancestor Dian Alstreim waved his hand as a breeze picked up in the Grand Welcoming Hall, "It is only a matter of time before my Alstreim Family falls to inner struggle. However, inner struggles are required in a family as big as my Alstreim Family for talents to come out on top! Not only would their battle prowess become up to par, but they wouldn't fall into schemes of others naively.""Nevertheless, I didn't think inner struggles would have gone to an ugly level where it is a no longer inner struggle but a death struggle. That's why I gave a command to stop infighting when I came out of seclusion, but fate would have it that there were many talents already sacrificed."Ancestor Dian Alstreim slammed his fists on the hand rest!"This isn't the Alstreim Family I envisioned!"The Grand Welcoming Hall seemingly fell into silence, with most of the Elders and Grand Elders lowering their heads, not having the courage to meet Ancestor Dian Alstreim's gaze.Particularly, Grand Elder Valdrey Alstreim and a few other Grand Elders and Elders completely lowered their heads. Grand Elder Krax Alstreim looked solemn but heaved a sigh as if lamenting for the current state of affairs."I apologize... I lost myself to anger." Ancestor Dian Alstreim took a deep breath before his pale yet princely features returned. He turned to look at the Conferred Queen's Protector before he lightly smiled."The current Alstreim Family needs an exceptional person from the young generation to lead them, and for that, we seniors must show them the right path that leads them to glory, and riches.""I am afraid that I need some relief as well.""For these reasons, why don't we take a step forward and exchange pointers, Conferred Queen's Protector? I am sure that the young generation would have their horizons broadened and know where their path lies in the future."Ancestor Dian Alstreim smiled in an amicable light.
