Divine Emperor of Death Chapter 1369: You're Not Kidding, Right?

A resounding sound echoed before a satisfied voice echoed out."Excellent!"Davis lightly clapped his hands in approval as he saw Lia Alstreim grab the sleeping pill and pop it into her mouth in a single move that was done without any hesitation. Her eyes shone with determination to take this leap of faith.She gulped and swallowed the pill. However, her gaze fell on Davis at this moment."I trust you, grandson..."Her voice came out weakly. Her eyes seemed heavy as they shut close a few times, but she tried her best to keep them open to the best of her ability to hear Davis's reply.Davis did not say anything but just looked at her finally closing her eyes completely after a few seconds, her posture slightly slanting over the headboard as she entered sleep while the book on her lap fell off to the bed.Right now, she was nothing but a defenseless and helpless woman.Davis brought his hand to his head and scratched his head, "You're still scared that I might take advantage of you after you took the pill, grandmother. It was not easy, was it?"His voice wryly echoed out, but there was no reply.Nevertheless, Davis remained satisfied with this leap of faith. He knew her reluctance with his Heart Intent, so it took tremendous determination on her part to swallow that sleeping pill. Even if anything happened, she wouldn't know.However, if Lia Alstreim didn't trust him, he would find it hard to heal her willingly because that was the essential requirement he wanted from the person he would help recover.That's why he was satisfied with her determination, but if she had refused him, he wouldn't have blamed her either. He would've just said that his treatment had failed but that they could try later, of course, until Lia Alstreim was willing to place trust in him. After all, he had given his word to Tia Alstreim, his little aunt."Now then... I made grandmother sleep so that it would remain unknown to them how I healed her. This is good for me, but there's a bit of a problem in healing her..."Davis narrowed his brows, looking confused and frustrated.'Both mother and daughter end up dead in less than a decade. Their lifespans hadn't changed. That means something happens to Lia Alstreim that hastens her illness, ending up dead in less than a decade. However, Tia Alstreim also dies around that time, and I know that it should be because of that...'Davis's pupils dilated before his eyes widened, 'Her mother's death, a life-changing event to Tia Alstreim... Did it cause her to cross her fifth Whisper of Fate Phenomenon, therefore calling upon a heavenly tribulation to have her Karmic Guardian Physique completely awakened?'He solemnly mused, wondering if healing Lia Alstreim would instantly bring down a heavenly tribulation on the little Tia. If it did, he didn't know how to go about this matter. However, from Edgar Alstreim's words, Tia had only experienced her fourth Whisper of Fate Phenomenon. It didn't seem like it ended, or else Edgar Alstreim might've informed him. Follow current on novelenglish.net

Nevertheless, feeling the need to consult, Davis left the room and made his way to the hall. This matter was too important for him to just carelessly brush it off.There, he saw the father and daughter looking at the elegantly tiled floor in anxiety. He raised his brows, feeling that he was such a jerk to make them worry so much for a simple matter."... Davis!"Edgar Alstreim noticed him first and stood up in stock. Tia Alstreim raised her head, blinking in confusion at Davis's arrival."Don't worry. The treatment hasn't started yet, but I've given a sleeping pill to grandmother so she would have no need to be afraid and not witness my secret technique for her own good.""Oh..." Edgar Alstreim lifted his chin in realization and nodded in understanding."Is there anything I could help you with? Are you missing an ingredient? Leave it to me to procure it...!" Edgar Alstreim patted his chest in assurance before his expression became solemn, "Even if it is difficult to get, I will lay my life on the line to procure it!"Davis smiled awkwardly, "It's not something like I'm missing a resource. I am here for another matter. "As he said that, his gaze fell on Tia Alstreim.Edgar Alstreim narrowed his eyes, "Is anything wrong with her?"Davis shook his head, "It isn't as if something is wrong, but there is indeed a problem."Edgar Alstreim and Tia Alstreim's expressions both became solemn as they heard his words."Grandfather, you once said that Tia is experiencing her fourth Whisper of Fate Phenomenon right before I healed your dantian. Are you sure about that?"Edgar Alstreim nodded his head, "I'm sure of it as I've kept count. She's still experiencing her fourth Whisper of Fate Phenomenon.He turned to look at his daughter, "Tia... after your nephew healed me, did you feel anything strange, like the feeling of Whisper of Fate Phenomenon fading before appearing again?"Tia raised her head and tapped her cheek with her finger, "Mhm, I'm not sure if something like that happened, but as far as I could feel, the Whisper of Fate Phenomenon remained the same ever since that time..."Hearing her answer, Davis heaved a sigh of relief.With this, he could proceed without worrying that tribulation clouds might form over his head."Davis, is there something wrong?" Edgar Alstreim couldn't help but ask. Follow current on novel-online.com

What did this have to do with Lia Alstreim's treatment? He couldn't understand.Davis felt a bit hesitant, but he felt that letting them know would be advantageous so that they wouldn't do something stupid."The truth is..." Davis blinked, "I learned that when Tia crosses her fifth Whisper of Fate Phenomenon, her Karmic Guardian Physique will call upon a heavenly tribulation.""What!???"Edgar Alstreim jerked as his hair almost stood on end. He experienced goosebumps at this moment while Tia Alstreim's eyes were wide in disbelief.Edgar Alstreim also couldn't fathom Davis's current words.Heavenly tribulations... A thing of myths that they had never seen before, and yet Tia's physique was unique enough to call one...?Should he be proud or lament his unlucky fate again?Edgar Alstreim didn't know what to think of it as he didn't know if his daughter would manage to survive the heavenly tribulation's onslaught?His face was stiff, trodden with sorrow and disbelief.Looking at his reaction, Davis sighed. This was why he hesitated to tell them before as it would worry them more instead of making them prepare because he himself didn't know what kind of heavenly tribulation would fall or how it would fall, for that matter.There was no way to prepare unless they offered Tia Alstreim to the Heaven Gazing Sect!If Tia Alstreim was a man, then it would be somewhat fine, but she is a woman who would be taken advantage of in so many ways, and he didn't want to let her come into danger. She had the face of his mother, like the mini version of Claire, adorable and lovable.But of course, those features had already faded as she had grown into a fine young lady herself.Even then, how could he let her come into danger?She was already family to him.Of course, the Heaven Gazing Sect was said to be righteous that even Mystic Diviner Aurelius has feared it, hiding his evil deeds in order to blend. However, he refused to believe that. If a person like Aurelius could enter, it meant that it was not full of righteousness but also filled with hypocrites."You're not kidding, right?"After what seemed to be a long time, Edgar Alstreim asked in an unsure tone.

Myths like heavenly tribulation were truly hard for him to believe, and as far as he knew, only people who are trying to enter the fabled Immortal Stage would experience it. He found it hard to believe that his daughter who had not even crossed twenty years of age might experience it."Yes, I'm afraid that if this is the fifth Whisper of Fate Phenomenon, then Tia might truly experience a heavenly tribulation because I feel that her mother's survival is connected to her fortune. So, if I helped grandmother heal, it is possible that..."Davis didn't repeat it, but Edgar Alstreim and Tia Alstreim knew his meaning very well.Edgar Alstreim gulped as he turned to look at his daughter, "Tia, you're at the fourth Whisper of Fate Phenomenon, right?"His tone was utterly solemn as if he was imploring her to think properly, different from his normal attitude before.Tia Alstreim's heart palpitated, her cheeks turning into a flushed shade of red as she turned incredibly nervous, "I... I think so...""Tia..." Edgar Alstreim's eyes were wide, "You got to remember-""Enough..."Davis's voice echoed out in a calm manner, causing Edgar Alstreim to come out of his reverie, realizing that he had almost scared his daughter. He inwardly sighed, understanding that even the host couldn't have a complete grasp over their physique.They could only play a game of guesses and conform the happenings to reality."So, if you two do not want to proceed with grandmother's treatment, this is the time to tell me," Davis warned in a solemn tone.Edgar Alstreim's expression became difficult as he began to aimlessly look around as if searching for an answer. In the end, he sighed after what seemed to be a long time."We have to st-""No!" Tia Alstreim screamed, her eyes becoming moist, "I'm sure of it! I'm still experiencing the fourth Whisper of Fate Phenomenon! Big brother, please heal my mother! Please...! Even if the heavenly tribulation falls, it would only be after the next Whisper of Fate Phenomenon, not now! Please..."Hearing her heartfelt cry, Davis and Edgar Alstreim's expression became difficult as their hearts melted.Davis sighed as he bent his head to her level and patted her head, "What if it falls now?""Then I face it... I'm not afraid of death...!"Looking at her trembling purple pupils that obviously feared the heavenly tribulation, Davis felt the intent to protect her rise before he smiled in satisfaction.He turned around and left, seemingly leaving them without a reply, when his voice suddenly echoed."I lied before. If I'm not wrong, then my treatment method has a success rate of ninety-nine percent, so be prepared to have a joyous occasion or be rained by heavenly tribulation lightning bolts, Tia!"Edgar Alstreim and Tia Alstreim stood there stunned in the hall as if they could only watch his back, incapable of doing anything as his purple-robed figure was etched in their minds.
