Divine Emperor of Death Chapter 1114: Inbound?

Ancestor Dian Alstreim more or less knew that he had been taken advantage of and also felt a bit duped but just couldn't put his finger on the latter. He didn't think much about it as he saw the Dragon Queen's worry for Davis and could see that their love might be mutual.'So that's why she was mad and disheartened to see Davis be taken away from her... No wonder she was unreasonable with me, a Ninth Stage Powerhouse... A mere subordinate wouldn't garner a reaction like that...'Ancestor Dian Alstreim shook his head in realization, thinking that the Dragon Queen was still a maiden in heart despite her raising her hands at the slightest provocation as if being filled with brawn. It made him realize that love is blind. Otherwise, he couldn't imagine her being disrespectful without a reason as she possessed a noble air.Indeed, the Dragon Queen wouldn't be disrespectful as long as one wasn't disrespectful to her, but... little did Ancestor Dian Alstreim know that his thinking was off the charts, bordering on the level of misunderstanding!Looking at Ancestor Dian Alstreim's nod, Davis imperceptibly smirked.He had won in this gamble again! His plan was a success!To be accurate, it was an impromptu plan.Nevertheless, Davis knew that his plan that had been set in motion had succeeded!For better or worse, Ancestor Dian Alstreim had agreed to nurture him without feeling like he had lost out much, but in truth, he had lost out big time.Contrarily, if he hadn't determined himself to use this unprepared and hasty plan, it was unknown how long it would've taken to convince this Ancestor to give his family heavy protection, especially when he wasn't around any longer.Davis had decided long ago that he would make this place his stronghold in the Fifty-Two Territories. However, he needed assurance that his family could safely reside here if he inadvertently offended someone extremely powerful during his adventures. He couldn't depend on Fallen Heaven when he was not with them.A simple declaration that the Alstreim Family would protect his family could never satisfy him.That's why he had Isabella come over here, let her take advantage of the situation to force them into experiencing a similar case of inviting a calamity!The Dragon Queen's background appeared mysterious and powerful due to her abnormal talent and cultivation. She had even threatened to bring tens of Ninth Stage Powerhouses. No one could easily decipher that it was false.Therefore, if Ancestor Dian Alstreim had given up or said that he would protect him but not his family from a calamity by risking millions of lives of the Alstreim Family, then he would've said nothing and left, never to appear here again by forcefully taking his entire family away from here.

After all, he can't ask for all of the Alstreim Family's cultivators to die with them as it was unjust, but since they enjoyed the Alstreim Family's perks, their lives are tied to its life and death as well.It goes without saying.A person can't simply enjoy the perks while not facing the consequences. He was ready to allow the Alstreim Family to reach new heights, but if they refused to face the consequences along with him, why should he help them become a true powerhouse in the Fifty-Two Territories?The freebies only went to his loved ones! The others can suck... suck... yes, suck their fingers like helpless babies and keep waiting for him to be generous and benevolent!In truth, even though his family wasn't in the know of such a plan and were confused, they sure did play along by presenting shocked reactions when they weren't even shocked in the first place. Only Natalya knew bits and pieces since she and Princess Isabella came here at the same time.As for how Princess Isabella and Nadia knew, he left Nadia's doppelganger in the Purple Guest Palace, and through informing Nadia in his soul sea, he made them know about the situation and told them the plan as soon as he saw them leaving the seclusion chamber.Even if Nadia wasn't present, he could still use his Solitary Soul Avatar, but it was cultivating the soul.'Hehe, what reaction would the Ancestor display if he came to know he was actually forced to make a decision instead of provoked?' Davis couldn't stop feeling proud of his wits.Now, he even got himself an additional yet unexpected perk of having Ancestor Dian Alstreim as his Protector! Although he didn't have any such thoughts of having the Ancestor always protect him, he felt that it would still feel good to command a living Ninth Stage Powerhouse rather than a mindless Ninth Stage Powerhouse.But he doubted that he could command. After all, how could he command the only Ancestor? It would invite animosity from not only the Ancestor but also the other people. At most, he felt that he could daringly request and have him understand to comply.*Whoosh!~*The Dragon Queen separated from him and shot away. It was as if she was incredibly embarrassed and no longer had the courage to face him like a shy maiden. The doppelganger of Nadia followed back, but Natalya stayed here, standing beside Evelynn.They quickly moved and appeared beside him, seemingly comforting him as they both placed a hand on his shoulders.Everyone looked as if they heaved a sigh of relief, but they also possessed a visible smile on their faces. It could be seen that they were all glad for their own reasons.Ancestor Dian Alstreim also smiled, feeling ecstatic that he finally managed to recruit the abnormal soul forging cultivation genius into the family.Ancestor Dian Alstreim did not notice their true emotions through Heart Intent as he was too busy dealing with the Dragon Queen, not to mention that he didn't probe again with this Heart Intent since he felt that his probe might be found out.

A single probe might be brushed off as curiosity, but repeatedly doing it would cause the other party to be enraged if known. With his Heart Intent that reached a higher level, he didn't want to experiment with it, especially at that moment.He didn't use it on Davis because he knew that a Soul Forging Cultivator with the same Soul Forging Cultivation could easily decipher that his probe wasn't a simple probe but a unique probe.As for whether Davis would be able to ascertain whether the unique probe was Heart Intent or not was another story. He didn't know Davis had also comprehended Heart Intent. If he knew, he would've been shocked!Nonetheless, since Ancestor Dian Alstreim didn't manage to find many suspicious points, Davis and the others successfully duped him into promising and binding himself with such an oath.Davis felt that he was truly evil and merciless. If Ancestor Dian Alstreim was helpless and failed to protect him, who knows what would happen to his law-heart?He didn't know, but the most obvious result would be a formation of a heart demon, and its intensity would depend upon the determination of Ancestor Dian Alstreim's will.However, his brows squinted as he looked towards the north-east.Davis also looked in that direction. They both then looked at each other before Ancestor Dian Alstreim shot off towards the distance. "You should all go back. I have some urgent matter to attend to."Only his voice resounded out after his silhouette disappeared."What happened?" Patriarch Eldric Alstreim narrowed his brows as he stared at Davis.How come Davis was able to sense something wrong, but he wasn't?"It's better if Patriarch goes back... I don't think you can handle it."Patriarch Eldric Alstreim became taken aback before his eyes narrowed, emitting boundless killing intent, "Is it the Yantra's?""How would I know?" Davis shrugged, "All I sensed is the powerful fluctuation of a Ninth Stage Powerhouse..."Patriarch Eldric Alstreim became solemn before he spoke, "The city's defenses are already tightened. I'll go take a-" Follow current on storynovel.net

"-look?" Davis interrupted, "If it really is the Yantra Family's Ancestor, do you want to get yourself killed?""I'm not in a position to advise you, but I think it is better if you look after the city. Otherwise, you would just be adding a burden to the Ancestor as you'll be a liability in front of Ninth Stage Powerhouses."Before Patriarch Eldric Alstreim could reply, Davis continued, "I'm telling this for your own good. If Ancestor Dian Alstreim really needed you, he would've brought you along.""Use your power where it is best used to the fullest of your capability. You're the Patriarch, so make sure no enemy enters or leaves the Grand Alstreim City.""I've said what I needed to say, so it's your decision to make."Davis no longer spoke and shot towards his mother while his two wives followed suit.Patriarch Eldric Alstreim possessed a complex expression on his face as he looked at Davis's back. Even though he found his words an insult, he couldn't find a single fault that it left him speechless.'He could keep calm and think rationally in front of the Ancestor, a Ninth Stage Powerhouse, and even an enemy powerhouse ... Truly a worthy character who can succeed me...''No, he's too worthy...''No wonder Ancestor gambled the Alstreim Family's life and death on him...'Patriarch Eldric Alstreim shook his head. He made his decision and left towards the central part of the city to protect the Grand Alstreim City from possible threats.Davis, Evelynn, and Natalya arrived in front of Claire. But before they could arrive, Logan took a step forward and flashed through the air with lightning speed before he arrived in front of Edgar Alstreim and clasped his hands with a straight face."Father-in-law!"Edgar Alstreim's eyes twitched as he muttered."Son-in-law...?""..."It was dead calm as an awkward atmosphere quickly began to spread.
