Divine Emperor of Death Chapter 1237: A Month Ago

Ancestor Tirea Snow didn't seem to respond as she kept her eyes narrowed. Last time, she noticed that this person known as Alchemist Davis was able to find her, but this time, she couldn't even sense him, making her inwardly shocked. It was even more so since she had already heard that this person was none other than the Alstreim Family's hope to become a peak powerhouse, making them far surpass any of the Nine Western Territories, as well as possibly a few mid-sized Territories.At first, she held a bit of doubt even though she believed Ancestor Dian Alstreim's words, but now, she could see that her man was humble when he said this point to her. After all, it was practically confirmed that Alchemist Davis was lesser than hundred years old.She couldn't help but turn to look at Ancestor Dian Alstreim, "Dian, it seems like waiting patiently for all these years had borne you this kind of fruit. Don't you feel delighted?"Ancestor Dian Alstreim's solemn expression couldn't help but fade as it changed into a smile when mentioned, "Yes, now all I have to do is protect the fruit until it ripens...""Although, brat! I heard that you injured yourself? What was that about?"Davis couldn't help but smile, "That was just a lie..."He turned to look towards Ancestor Tirea Snow, squinting his brows, "How much have you come to know about me?" "Davis, give some respect..." Ancestor Dian Alstreim narrowed his brows. However, he appeared relaxed after hearing Davis's safety."It's fine..." Ancestor Tirea Snow rarely smiled, her face appearing extremely beautiful.Ancestor Dian Alstreim placed his palm on his forehead, "What do you mean that it's fine? You're just going to make him more arrogant, which is not good for his future considering that he would be shining in the mid-sized and perhaps the large-sized Territories. What if he needlessly offends a powerhouse with his brazen mouth?"Ancestor Tirea Snow kept her smile, "He came from the Forsaken Phoenix Realm and is standing in front of us with brazenness. Does hus- do you think that he is an idiot? He likely has some means to critically injure us, or perhaps if I were to exaggerate, even has a one or two means to kill us."Ancestor Dian Alstreim's eyes went wide, "You evaluate him to be that kind of an expert?"

"You just bragged to me that he had reached High-Level Supreme Soul Stage..." Ancestor Tirea Snow sighed, "Then why is he at Peak-Level Supreme Soul Stage now?""What!?" Ancestor Dian Alstreim stood up as he turned to look at Davis in shock."Are you kidding me?""No..." Ancestor Tirea Snow shook her head, "When he removed his concealment, there were a bit of soul force undulations that I was able to sense with my King Soul Stage soul sense, making me aware that he is at the Peak-Level Supreme Soul Stage. However, I'm confused..."Her expression turned solemn, "If I'm not wrong, its aura remained almost as strong as mine...""At the very least, as long as you don't use your essence gathering cultivation, he can suppress you to deal a damaging blow with just his Soul Forging Cultivation... or use that time to escape."Ancestor Dian Alstreim felt a chill up his spine when he listened to her last sentence. He couldn't help but look at Davis in a new, complex light.'To land a damaging blow on me with his own cultivation base, perhaps he's already grown up...'He already had heard how Davis bragged that he could reach King Soul Stage in terms of prowess when Davis was at the High-Level Supreme Soul Stage, but now with Ancestor Tirea Snow's input, he was basically convinced that their Alstreim Family had a Soul King in reality.He didn't ask Davis's method of cultivation since it was his own secret. He had no d.e.s.i.r.e for it since his ambitions were already squashed in the past. The only d.e.s.i.r.e few d.e.s.i.r.es left in him was to start a family with Tirea Snow, something he hadn't done or even think about in the past thousand years, and at least bring the Alstreim Family back to the times where it was prosperous during the founder's time.Davis narrowed his eyes as he frowned, "You really told her everything about us?"The only thing Ancestor Dian Alstreim wasn't in the know was that Princess Isabella was also from the Forsaken Phoenix Realm.Ancestor Dian Alstreim didn't seem to be guilty but determined, "We have already decided to marry, with her marrying into our Alstreim Family."

Davis's frown turned into a smile, "Then it's fine but are you sure that she won't forget you again?""Just kill me if that happens..." Ancestor Tirea Snow wryly laughed, "I'd rather die than bring harm to Dian...""Idiot..." Ancestor Dian Alstreim couldn't help but feel extremely moved when he thought about what she did, "Why did you sneak into the heart of the enemy's fort?""What do you mean?" Davis frowned.Is this why he was called here?Ancestor Dian Alstreim stared at her before he looked at Davis."She was serious about marrying me to the extent that she went to assassinate Elizar Yantra and almost took his life but ended up being thwarted by a mysterious Ninth Stage Powerhouse. Fortunately, Tirea's King Soul Stage soul sense was extremely useful in finding that hidden opponent's ambush that she didn't get poisoned and safely retreated."'What the...' Davis became flabbergasted as he saw Ancestor Tirea Snow's beautiful face.So many things had happened while he was gone away? But he was also here with his soul body, so why hadn't he heard about anything about this? This was absolutely bad news indeed as both the Alstreim Family and the Falling Snow Sect might be in potential danger if the others were to know that both powers had colluded!Nevertheless, he looked that she had a charming and elegant appearance, but she went for the kill to protect her man's power from harm. He couldn't help but think that she was crazy to invade another power like that!Indeed, Falling Snow Sect's women who had fallen in love were indeed scary enough that he began to believe that they would really betray their own sects for their love."Wait... poisoned?" Davis's eyes abruptly narrowed.Not injured but poisoned? Follow current on storynovel.net

"Likely, it's a powerhouse from the mid-sized Territory towards the north-east of us, the Poison Lord Villa." Ancestor Dian Alstreim's expression was utterly solemn.Davis frowned, "What are they doing in the Flowing Mist Sect? Aren't the people from the Poison Lord Villa designated as cultivators of the wicked path? What business do they have in the Nine Western Territories, protecting the Flowing Mist Sect from harm?""They shouldn't have business here in the Nine Western Territories." Ancestor Tirea Snow shook her head, "We can't have any kind of positive ties with these wicked path powers as righteous powers, at least not in the open. Otherwise, even the four great righteous powers don't need to step us to judge, but the entire Nine Western Territories might descend an incursion upon us.""From this, we can say that the Flowing Mist Sect, or specifically the Yantras, have decided to secretly ask help from the Poison Lord Villa to protect them. I say so because when I attacked Elizar Yantra, the other two didn't seem as eager to protect him as they left me many openings to strike him.""It almost looked as if they wanted him dead..." She narrowed her eyes.Ancestor Dian Alstreim nodded his head, "I can attest to that as I know the other two families, the Gilmores and Metaxas, are not united as they seem to be in the open. "Davis became flabbergasted at Ancestor Tirea Snow, realizing that she even dared to strike into the heart of the Flowing Mist Sect. He mused that her King Soul Stage Soul Forging Cultivation allowed her to suppress them and walk without much difficulty within their illusion formations, making her a deadly weapon as she can already conceal herself like an assassin with the Nethersnow Mirage Steps.Nevertheless, he didn't understand a certain point."But, how? They shouldn't have known about Ancestor Tirea Snow trying to kill Elizar Yantra. Even you didn't know, right? So how did they request the Poison Lord Villa's timely help?""We were initially confused about the same matter but later arrived at a conclusion that..." Ancestor Dian Alstreim's expression turned grave."That damned bastard Elizar Yantra was planning to ambush me...!""After all, I didn't accept his truce and refused to give the Illusory Yantra King Bell; his Legacy Artifact back. He likely thought that I was trying to rob of his karmic luck while secretly preparing to attack him! So that was an ambush prepared for me, but Tirea ended up being caught in it.""Fortunately, she was too strong for them to handle..." He sighed with a relieved smile as his fists loosened."I see..." Davis nodded his head. However, he still didn't understand a few more things. When did this all happen, and why haven't the Flowing Mist made a move yet? He couldn't help but ask again."You see," Ancestor Dian Alstreim explained, "This happened about a month ago. This situation hadn't been made public but severely suppressed by the Flowing Mist Sect because they or Elizar Yantra requested aid from the Poison Lord Villa, which tantamounts to inviting disaster for themselves in front of the great righteous powers' eyes. As for us, Tirea had tried to assassinate Elizar without a valid reason. She doesn't belong to our power. So she will equally be judged by the other righteous powers, and I don't want that. I don't want us to fall into a disadvantage.""That's why, if Tirea and I married, we, both the Alstreim Family and the Falling Snow Sect, additionally have a legitimate reason to execute Elizar Yantra for meddling in our Alstreim Family's affairs and trying to usurp us. At that time, no other righteous power can bar us from having our revenge!"Ancestor Dian Alstreim's eyes flashed with excitement, while Ancestor Tirea Snow had a rare blush on her face.
