Divine Emperor of Death Chapter 562 Daunting Gaze

Davis inwardly laughed but he acted as if he were losing patience.
His face scrunched up into a mocking smile, "Tell me... You are a person who is not eligible to engage in this type of transaction in the first place, yet you dared to take out a valuable cultivation manual such as a King Grade Manual in the open and hope to be fully compensated?"
"You!" Alchemist Johann Strauss couldn't understand why the other party would suddenly change his tone, however, he didn't think much and but retorted, "You are also a person who is not eligible to trade in this kind of transaction!"
He could discern that the other party's robes which indicated that he was a Peak-Level Sky Grade Alchemist. This generally meant that the person's cultivation should be somewhere at Law Manifestation Stage; the Sixth Stage. He garnered that the other party could also be at the Law Dominion Stage, however, if it were the case, the other party would have revealed his cultivation by now to intimidate but didn't do so.
This meant that the other party is mostly at the Peak-Level of the Law Manifestation Stage.
"Hmph!" Davis scoffed, "I'm a subordinate of the Conferred Queen. Do I still look like I'm ineligible to engage in a transaction of this level?"
Alchemist Johann's expression changed as his expression became aghast!
Who didn't know of the Conferred Queen in the second level of the Ethren City? He who lived in his parent's residence in the second level definitely had heard about it!
"You! You wouldn't truly renege on your words, will you!?"
Davis rolled his eyes, "Stop acting. I don't see any fear in your eyes."
"..."
Alchemist Johann's expression froze before he smacked his lips.
Indeed, he wasn't scared as he felt that he could silence this person and escape even if push comes to shove, however, he wasn't confident in doing so at this Alchemy Convention where it was heavily guarded by experts.
He wasn't scared of a Low-Level Law Dominion Stage Cultivator since he had killed one before with his odorless and colorless poison mastery.
Poor Johann Strauss didn't know that his tricks and underhanded poison methods would never work on Davis, otherwise, he might have submitted on the spot.
"Then you really won't renege on your words!?"
Davis chuckled. He was in the territory of this poison master so if something instantly occurred, he would be able to save himself but there was Evelynn who was susceptible to higher grade poisons.
There was also something he was aiming for in this transaction, so he didn't take much of an aggressive action or a dominant approach.
"How can I when we've almost ended the transaction? Wealth isn't the problem, however, don't think you can make a profit out of me." Davis spat these words out in an abnormal tone and put down his conditions on the table, "One Low-Level King Grade Medicinal Pill Recipe and 10,000 High-Level Spirit Stones."
Alchemist Johann pondered for half a minute, his face scrunched up in hesitation until he opened his mouth, "15,000 High-Level Spirit Stones..."
"Deal!"
Davis instantly uttered with a smile on his face, causing Alchemist Johann Strauss to be taken aback. The feeling of being taken advantage of overwhelmed his emotions so much that his cheeks turned red from embarrassment.
Davis inwardly grinned as he knew that he had enormously profited in this deal.
One Low-Level King Grade Pill Recipe could sell for around a hundred to thousand High-Level Spirit Stones depending upon its value.
As for the Peak-Level King Grade Cultivation Manual that Alchemist Johann Strauss sold, it could even sell for a million High-Level Spirit Stones! Especially when it is a rare Poison Attributed Cultivation Manual, it could even sell for more than hundred Peak-Level Spirit Stones!!
Pill Recipes and Cultivation Manuals were like this... usually sold at greater prices when compared to its derived treasures in the same grade, like pills or cultivation techniques.
Alchemist Johann Strauss instantly wanted to renege on the deal but didn't so as he quickly remembered that the other party claimed that he belonged to the Conferred Queen.
He bit his lips in deep frustration before he reluctantly accepted the deal. He knew that he was too weak to even seek help in this deal from outer sources.
'Johann Strauss! You might have been initially blinded by the Pill Recipes but it is up to you to make this deal benefit to your advantage in the future!' He silently cheered for himself.
In the next few seconds, they exchanged the goods and left on pretty 'good' terms with one telling the other that he will visit again while the other articulated in a displeased tone that he was expecting his visit again.
While Davis walked out, hand in hand with Evelynn, he smiled at her and said, "Well, now you can quickly enter the Law Seed Stage."
Evelynn nodded with a wide smile, "I'll be able to catch up to you in terms of Essence Gathering Cultivation."
"I believe in you..." He patted her head and encouraged her to do so, otherwise, he would really have to babysit her but he wasn't bothered by her weakness because that would also give him plenty of chances to take advantage of her love.
The more she felt indebted to him, the more she would be unable to extricate from him.
Davis had no doubt that Evelynn would feel like this, hence, it could also be said that he was taking advantage of her guilt. He wryly smiled as he felt that he was scum but just imperceptibly shook his head and brought her around the Alchemy Convention.
As they entered the core grounds, the crowd lessened, however, the status of people roaming and socializing gradually increased.
King Grade Alchemists, Elders from King Grade Powers, King Grade Inscription Masters, Grand Elders from King Grade Powers, almost all of them above the Sixth Stage.
Even Eighth Stage Experts!! Those who were from the third level of the city!
This line-up and daunting presence left Davis wide-eyed and Evelynn stunned into silence. Their legs stopped, telling them to not take a step into their social scene so as not to incur unwanted attention.
Davis just turned to look at Evelynn while she reciprocated and nodded her head with a solemn expression. They both felt such a place wasn't something that they casually step over as there was a faint pressure building around those people above the Seventh Stage.
Nevertheless, Davis simply didn't like intimidation.
If he so wished, he felt that he could kill every Law Dominion Stage Expert here with just a thought. Although exaggerated, it was the truth and close to reality.
As long as he could make the first move, he knew that the Law Dominion Stage Experts couldn't do anything to him unless they understood his thoughts and intent.
Naturally, if the Law Dominion Stage Experts made the first move, he would undoubtedly die with them only taking a single slap to send him to the underworld.
Davis understood this point.
The moment he made a move, he would have to be cautious of attacks that came from those he missed. Once an attack land on him, then he would become as good as dead.
This was something he couldn't avoid unless he was really far away from them.
Cultivation naturally became a restraint to his prowess where he could do nothing against a cultivator who is far stronger than him by a stage. As for those who are two stages stronger than him, it remained to be seen whether if Fallen Heaven's powers would work on them.
