Divine Emperor of Death Chapter 727 Kind Of...

Davis's residence. In a certain building where there were 'guests'.
Davis sat on the couch with his two legs relaxing on top of the table that was placed in front oh him. In his hands was a type of half-eaten spirit fruit with a soft, juicy and mushy texture, possessing an extremely delicious taste. He couldn't help but close his eyes as he enjoyed it.
"Mnmm~ This is delicious! This Silver Peach Fruit is indeed delicious! Is this spirit fruit from the Dual Lotus Manor Territory?" His satisfied voice echoed, but the way he was seated came off as immensely rude.
"Yes~" A melodious and gentle voice echoed.
"This spirit fruit is widely available in the Dual Lotus Manor Territory. It is used as a supplement to restore one's lost vitality, although if you keep consuming it, the effects would obviously drop in potency."
"Then is the Silver Peach Fruit you're eating is of higher grade?" Davis questioned as he looked at Arianna Woller, munch on the spirit fruit with her small red lips.
Arianna Woller chewed and swallowed the contents before she nodded her head, "Indeed. It is at King Grade..."
"I thought that it would be useful to my son, so I didn't bother recovering my vitality since I wanted to die after all this was over before..."
"Mother..." Alexi Ethren, who sat on the side obediently, couldn't help but echo in distress.
"Alexi, I no longer want to die. Didn't I already tell you that I will live for you?"
Alexi Ethren stared for a while before he nodded his head. He looked at Davis in a complex light before nodded his head, "Thank you for letting us stay in this house for more than a month..."
"Sure, you two didn't make trouble and just stayed inside, taking care of your injuries." Davis echoed, "However, if you two are trying to overstay, then I would probably have to kick you two out."
"Haha..." Alexi Ethren couldn't help but laugh, but inwardly he felt embarrassed.
However, what could he do?
He obviously suffered from a shortage of blood vitality and needed to recover for a short period of time, so he needed a safe place to stay, and this place just so happens to be the safest place in the entire Ethren City according to his mother.
If he and his mother went out, they would obviously be hunted, and it remained unknown if the Conferred Queen's Protector would save them again, and he didn't want to test the waters as well, only to end up with a disaster.
His mother was weak, hovering in the Seventh Stage, and even though he was at the Law Sea Stage, he obviously couldn't fight properly in his condition. He sacrificed thirty percent of his blood essence, which settled him in bad shape.
If they went out, the chances are that they would be quickly struck with a disaster.
"What's wrong?" Davis chuckled.
Alexi Ethren came out of his unfortunate reverie and hid his embarrassment.
"It's ridiculous to hear that when the entire southeastern region is under my jurisdiction... But I doubt that it still is considering that my first brother, the current Emperor, openly decided to capture, or perhaps even kill me..." Alexi Ethren chuckled as he looked at Davis.
"Just kill him..." Arianna Woller uttered with a gentle expression on her face.
Alexi Ethren wryly smiled at his mother's comment. He wanted to, but was he in any shape to do so?
"What about your subordinates? I heard that you are extremely protective of your subordinates? Perhaps, they might have been captured by now..." Davis asked in curiosity.
Alexi Ethren shook his head, "I've already sent them all away and disguised it as a mission. They probably long crossed the border but would've noticed by now as to why I sent them away..."
"But you didn't send Agis Stirlander away?" Davis rubbed his chin in amusement.
After the fall of Emperor Kaiser Ethren, Agis Stirlander came to his residence to obtain shelter. Natalya was so ecstatic that he wasn't able to refuse; neither did he want to refuse them in the first place.
Instead of keeping them away and having Natalya worry for her family, he felt that it would be best to keep them somewhere near and safe. For example, his current base, which was none other than this place.
In any case, there were already numerous people staying here, and they were all listened and gave respect to his words, so he saw no reason to kick them out.
Alexi Ethren wryly smiled, "If I sent them away, wouldn't I offend you, the in-laws?"
"Reasonable..." Davis commented before he looked at Arianna Woller.
She possessed a healthy shade over her cheeks, but he knew that her vitality hadn't completely recovered yet.
Thinking of something, he couldn't help but ask her.
"Has your vitality completely healed?"
Arianna Woller smiled as her bewitching charm radiated.
"Young man, are you interested in me?"
"Kind of..." Davis nodded his head.
Arianna Woller giggled while Alexi Ethren went wide-eyed as he misunderstood.
"This old hag has lived her life and only seeks to watch over my son, and perhaps his grandchildren. You have a good heart, but you don't need to waste your kindness on this old hag..." Arianna Woller spoke in a gentle manner.
In this one and half a month, she rather possessed a good impression of Davis as he didn't show any hostility towards them.
She had heard about him, Natalya and her son's matter, so she was sure that he either had a big heart and did not take that minor matter to heart. She had even considered that Davis was scheming before, but if that was the case, there was no need for him to hand her ancestor's inheritance over to them.
He could've just found another descendant and handed it over to them.
Usually, the representative who looked after or handed over someone's inheritance to an inheritor usually meant that representative had acknowledged the inheritor; hence, she believed that Davis had preferably acknowledged and recognized her son.
Whether it was Alexi Ethren's character, talent, or skill, she didn't know, but it remained that Davis had to acknowledge her son to even hand the inheritance over to them according to her ancestor's wishes.
"What do you mean that you're an old hag? Aren't you just around 400 years old, Arianna Woller, or should I say, Empress Arianna..." Davis grinned in a meaningful light.
Arianna Woller blinked before she glanced at her son, and seeing that he didn't entirely know about her past and knowing that she had never mentioned the name Empress Arianna before, it seems that only Alchemist Davis knew about her past in the Tripartite Alliance Territory.
Arianna Woller creased her brows.
Empress Arianna... The infamous title that she got after orchestrating the fall of a kingdom by seducing the powerful men and devouring their yang
Such a past, she wanted to forget it all.
"Hehe..." She wryly chuckled, "I have only recovered fifty percent of my vitality, meaning that I get to live till around 3,000 years or so..."
"Don't worry, mother!" Alexi Ethren echoed, "I will advance in cultivation and find many heavenly resources that would help you regain your vitality!"
However, he wondered why Alchemist Davis would flirt with his mother and even call her Empress when she was at most a figurehead Queen in the past?
Arianna Woller gently smiled back at her son, feeling heartened.
There was finally a man who cared about her without having sexual thoughts on her. To her, the world that has always seen her through a lustful glass, she felt comfortable from feeling her son's gaze and presence.
Meanwhile, Davis narrowed his eyes in scrutiny.
'3,000 Years?'
'Her current Essence Gathering Cultivation is at Law Dominion Stage; hence her maximum lifespan is around 6,000 years...'
'But, her lifespan thread indicated that she would live for more than ten thousand years... Did I see it wrong?'
Davis's pupils imperceptibly flashed with a red hue before it quickly became normal.
'No, her lifespan thread is still the same... So does that mean she eventually regains her vitality and enters the Law Sea Stage again?' Davis glanced at Alexi Ethren, thinking that the latter would be able to make his mother recover in the future.
But then, he also thought of another scenario...
'Using Fallen Heaven's newfound powers on her?'
Davis contemplated over the previously visible lifespan thread of Arianna Woller.
'Her long lifespan depiction meant that using Fallen Heaven's powers on her was already predetermined by fate, and after Fallen Heaven gained this new power, I've been subconsciously thinking of using it on Arianna Woller to see the results as well...'
'Is my thinking also integral: included in the wheel of fate?' Davis couldn't help but doubt.
