Divine Emperor of Death Chapter 3681 Remembering Trueselves

Chapter 3681 Remembering Trueselves

Isabella looked above.
Thunder clouds rumbled as two phoenixes flew above as they underwent their heavenly tribulations. Their wonderful wings flapped, allowing them to hover in the air as they defended against the lightning bolts, descending their way with a majestic aura filled with tyrannical undulations.
However, she wasn't worried about them passing their tribulation as she had confidence they would.
'This is called the Crystal World… but where is it exactly…? Is it even fine to be doing this openly?'
Isabella instead wondered if this place was fine to be having tribulations since she supposed that it would be out of heaven's jurisdiction. After all, they were Candidates seeking to inherit an Anarchic Divergent's Inheritance, an accursed legacy that would be destroyed by the Heaven's Warriors without a question asked.
Before coming here, Davis had told them everything, like how the Celestial Transcendent had attacked the World Master, causing numerous spatial tears and fissures to appear in the First Haven World, killing millions of people.
Therefore, the three of them knew about the Celestial Transcendent and his allegiance to the heavens, so Isabella wondered if it was okay to be undergoing tribulations here. If this place was in the true immortal world, then wouldn't the Celestial Transcendent appear here?
As she watched Zahara and Yeyin undergo the Heavenly Yin Tribulation, her thoughts were running wild, imagining countless scenarios.
However, the most plausible outcome she expected didn't happen.
By this time, the Peak-Level Immortal Emperor Crystal Beast Dragon that had been guarding the nearby crystal mountain should be on its way to kill them upon sensing the heavenly tribulation but it still didn't show up, leaving her confused.
Wasn't this crystal mountain they took over also its territory?
Isabella waited for a long time, but the Peak-Level Immortal Emperor Crystal Beast Dragon still didn't come. However, the tribulations of the two beautiful phoenixes were over.
They transformed into their human form and slowly descended without a care in the world.
Isabella smiled at them as she felt like they had become more beautiful. Not only did they retain their King-Tier aura but they also seemed to have undergone a significant change as their demeanor appeared quite majestic, lacking the immaturity that they exhibited despite having an elegant attitude tied with their lovable personalities.
"…"
Their auras became more reserved and less familiar, making Isabella frown.
This wasn't something that was just brought forth by the ascension to Immortal Emperor Beast Stage, making Isabella feel suspicious. She wasn't closer to them, but after spending some time together, she already had a grasp of their behavior.
"Zahara…"
Isabella called out, but Zahara unusually maintained her silence, causing the former to narrow her eyes.
"Flamerose…?"
Zahara's pursed her lips and curled, "Nice to meet you, Isabella Davis. I believe this isn't the first time we talked, but to me, this would be the first time since the falsehood in my memories has become undone."
"I can't believe we're still alive, even participating in the Candidacy."
Frostrose slightly lowered her head, appearing to frown. Her lips moved again behind her veil, "Our Auraflame Clan will brand us cowards if we appear alive in the Fire Phoenix Lower Realm just like that. And it seems like I have been subjected to participate in the Ice Phoenix Clan's stead? Just… what has happened?"
"…"
Isabella blinked, "Flamerose and Frostrose. Don't you remember what happened?"
"No, we do." Flamerose answered, her eyes narrowing, "But it is difficult for us to instantly tell what the truth is and what falsehood is. We have sacrificed ourselves into blood essence and soul essence to create an inheritance in this mysterious world, so after having spent some time waiting for an inheritor to appear, we finally found one."
"I also found one." Frostrose thought about Clara but shook her head lightly, "However, I had to relegate it to Shirley."
"Indeed." Flamerose continued, "I remember convincing you, but after that, I feel like I have lived in the Zenflame Clan for a long time."
"I lived in the Blizzara Clan." Frostrose interjected without a pause before Flamerose continued.
"But obviously, I can't tell which part is the truth there and which part is false."
"…"
Isabella saw they were pretty confused and couldn't help but smile.
To think that Davis even guessed this might happen during Candidacy. She didn't know how many steps he looked ahead or if he had foreknowledge of this matter but shook her head, looking at them straight.
"We ascended pretty quickly, so unless time was reversed or you two were sent back in time, I don't think you need to worry about that."
Flamerose and Frostrose looked at each other, still appearing confused, causing Isabella to add.
"Just think the moment you two stepped into the gates of the Aurora Cloud Gate was the continuation point of your memories. The rest are all probably false."
"Then why do this…?" Frostrose's gaze shook.
It seemed that she was intelligent enough to understand the complications and consequences of this turnaround.
"That- you can only ask the World Master."
Isabella wryly smiled, taking two steps back, "Now that you two have regained your past selves, I don't think it is safe for me to consider you allies who wouldn't betray me or move in our favor, at least not move for me."
The twin phoenixes' eyes narrowed, but Isabella continued.
"If you want to leave, then this is now your chance. I won't hold it against you as you have your priorities as a Fire Phoenix or Ice Phoenix."
"Isabella," Frostrose paused, "You'd die with a single attack from us at this range."
"Yeah, and that's why I can't remain assured."
"If we kill you, your husband…" Frostrose's lips moved, seemingly appearing to become hesitant a bit.
"He will kill us no matter where we are. I don't think it's a good move to offend him and jeopardize my Auraflame Clan. Besides, I saved him by offering Shirley the inheritance, and he has repaid that by saving us, allowing us to stand here."
"Indeed." Flamerose gave a firm nod, "He even made us King-Tier and helped us grow stronger. On the other hand, our clan long back decided to sacrifice us because my twin sister was born an Ice Phoenix, making use of us without having to- " "Flamerose…"
"What? Stop working yourself to the feathers for the clan, Frose. If it wasn't for- "
"That's enough, Flamie. Let's focus on the issue at hand." Frostrose urged, her tone sounding solemn.
Flamerose had also gone quiet.
However, she moved towards Frostrose and wrapped her arms around her for a hug.
"I'm glad you're alive…"
"I'm glad we're alive…"
Frostrose also nodded, appearing moved.
Isabella looked at this scene and had only one thought revolving in her mind, 'Flamie… Frose…? Are those supposed to be cute nicknames for them…?'
She inwardly giggled, thinking they shouldn't differ much in their personality, belonging to Zahara and Yeyin.
"So what's it going to be?"
Isabella asked, causing Flamerose and Frostrose to turn to look at her.
"We'll follow you until we come across Shirley."
"Until then, we'll support you."
"Very good." Isabella cupped hands, "Then let's mine the necessary Crystal Units quickly before making it to the Fourth Hidden Pagoda."
"Agreed."
*Tack~*
Just as they nodded their heads, Isabella widened her eyes as her second seal had shattered. Her lips curled, wondering who had won this time. However, she couldn't help but feel her nose tingle before she sneezed.
"Achew~"
Her sneeze was cute, making the two majestic birds blink.
Isabella raised her hand and rubbed the bridge of her nose embarrassingly, wondering if she got sick from mining crystals as this was a high-density area of heaven and earth energy in an unknown land or if someone deeply thought about her.
She hoped it was Davis.
However, it was at this time Fairy Thunderblaze, Zenova Artoria cleared the Seventh Hidden Pagoda and defeated Altross and Zoltross before restricting their movements after fully learning that they had messed with Isabella.
