After Davis divided the treasures with Kayla, he spoke with her about the rights to the viscous lake that was also a treasure.
In fact, many disciples had already collected hundreds of liters into their storage items already. Because it was dense and extremely heavy, it took time to collect, so when the battles stopped upon witnessing the Emperor of Death and Seylin Blizzara's battle, they stopped collecting as well, afraid that they might incur their wrath.
At this moment, Seylin Blizzara also arrived before Davis and Kayla, her countenance appearing unamused.
"I want half of the lake."
"Not a chance."f
Davis shook his head lightly, "Fellow apprentice-sister Kayla and I have decided to share it among ourselves. If you want in, you should pay up."
Seylin Blizzara glared at him, her raw emotion hidden behind her veil. However, remembering the terror of death energy surrounding her, she clenched her teeth and spoke.
"You may have bested me this time to make me admit defeat, but it won't go the same next time. What's the price?"
Davis turned to look at Kayla, figuring that she would have a better estimation of this mercurial lake's value. In fact, if they started training here, Kayla might very well enter the Immortal King Stage, but that would cause her to explode. Therefore, the only good way left for them to experience these treasures was to take them home, form an icy bath and relax in it while absorbing the pearl and its root together.
However, Kayla frowned with her icy pale face.
"Emperor of Death, there is not much left here for us ice spirits, but you still want to share with her?"
"…" Davis nodded his head, "Looks like the other party isn't willing, so you can leave empty-handed."
"You-!"
"Emperor of Death, can you please make some way for us ice phoenixes? This viscous lake has the burning property which is somewhat similar to our ice phoenix flames."
Abruptly, everyone turned to look at the source of the interruption and saw that it was an unknown ice phoenix. However, Davis's lips curled in hesitation.
"Fellow apprentice-sister Yeyin..."
He felt like he was put in a spot instantly as he owed the other party too much without her getting to know about it.
Shaking his head, he once more talked to Kayla.
Now, Kayla felt like she was put in a spot, now knew how she should proceed as it would inevitably offend Davis as she would've declined him twice. On the other hand, everyone else turned to look at Mistress Yeyin in shock, wondering who this phoenix was.
-n0ve1、com Last time, it was also seen he called them and the height of his marriage, which was really strange, but since they quickly came out, not much was spoken but right now, they couldn't help but deeply doubt Ice Phoenix Yeyin and Emperor of Death's relationship.
Could it be that they had some illicit relationship? Many people couldn't help but wonder. Even Seylin Blizzara appeared shocked as she viewed Yeyin in a new light, wondering who she truly was, then just a failed Young Mistress candidate.
But at this moment, there was a disturbance that garnered their attention.
It was Iesha and Pia rising up with a thirty-meter-tall carcass in between their icy hold.
The carcass of the Unfettered Ice Fiend was brought up and placed on the icy terrain.
Many people hissed as they saw its ferocious figure. It was scary and hair-raising, especially when they saw its vile face and ripped jaws that appeared as if they came from the depths of the deepest nightmares.
'Woah, even with a small amount of blood, it died? It's really weak to karmic attacks, huh...'
But on the other hand, Davis was pleasantly surprised. He imagined that its intelligence was high and was acting dead in its weak state in an attempt to escape later, but now, he confirmed that it was thoroughly dead.
Shaking his head, he turned to look at Mistress Yeyin.
"I'll try to share our share of the root with you. Is that fine?"
Mistress Yeyin's eyes went wide, "That's… too much…
"Then I can only step back as the agreement between Kayla and Tanya was already made. If neither party gave way, then I can't do anything about it."
"I see."
Mistress Yeyin seemed downcast, but she said no more. Seylin Blizzara was also silent, seemingly not interested in the treasure anymore, as her eyes panned between the Emperor of Death and Yeyin.
They eventually dispersed, leaving Davis alone with his women, who chided him for his reckless battle style.
He wrapped his hand around Nadia from Natalya's shoulder and kept her by his side as he began to watch Natalya, Tanya, Iesha, and Pia begin to cultivate in these icy waters, absorbing from the root under some envious gazes.
Eventually, those disciples all left as they were unable to obtain anything, and there were better opportunities present, but he stayed, caressing his Nadia's soft fur as his arm silently yet mysteriously grew back to its previous self as though it was never harmed.
"Say, Nadia. Do you have thoughts like wanting to have an Emperor-Tier Beast as your husband since you're an Empress of your clan?"
Nadia frowned as she heard his sudden question, "What are you asking, master? To even touch us regal beasts, one should be above us in cultivation and equal or higher in status. Not anyone can have us, and even fellow make Emperor-Tier Beasts are slightly below us in the hierarchy in terms of protection since our existence will give birth to more King-Tier and Emperor-Tier Bloodline than a male Emperor-Tier Beast could."
"Look at Rea Tyriel. She is the Young Mistress of our Tyriel Family and the immortal inheritor of the Lunar Crow Clan. For her to be chosen as the sole mate by Black Tyriel is well deserved. But of course, I think the difference is if we're born regal or not. Otherwise, an Emperor-Tier Beast couldn't possibly make concessions like Black Tyriel did. I can understand his thoughts since I care more about my master than my regal status. I'd be willing to do anything for you."
"…" Davis felt moved.
He knew she wasn't lying or making it up from her understanding, as these were things she innately understood from her inherited memories. She would know of her own importance in her clan. Still, he shook his head.
"Forgive me for asking such a stupid question. I'm still trying to understand what Emperor-Tier Beasts are so that I don't have to lose you to the regal nature that might influence you differently than you think."
After seeing Mira and Freya's change, Davis was convinced that them becoming an Emperor-Tier Magical Beast would drive them for the betterment of their clan. Not only had they become bold and confident, but they also didn't even fear him in their hearts anymore as they initially did. It was like they were completely different beasts, embodying the courage of their clans.
Then, he assumed Nadia's clan was almost extinct after that strange phenomenon in his heavenly tribulation. Therefore, if a regal entity is born for the betterment of the clan, as the texts mentioned, then if some male Emperor-Tier Nether Spring Death Wolf were to appear, he calculated that Nadia would be instinctively attracted to him regardless of her will or wants.
He could not allow such a thing to happen, and so he wanted to know more about it to stop it from happening. Besides, such an existence would want Nadia regardless of the costs, so they could probably not live under the same sky unless that existence miraculously is like Black Tyriel, who only wants a single woman in his life.
Something like controlling one's utmost desire was impossible. Davis knew better because he was unable to contain his desire for more love, as he didn't have any in his mortal days. His women's sweet and worshiping voices always made him feel like he was on cloud nine, and their gentle and caring attitude made him satisfied and peaceful.
There was nothing he could find to substitute for them, and neither was he willing to let them go.
Especially Nadia's care, where she protected him numerous times. It was something he was not willing to lose.
"This is not a problem, master. If at all I am ever attracted to someone else because of my innate instincts, all we have to do is erase that person from the face of the world."
Nadia shook her head as she smiled.
She understood Davis's worries because she had also considered this before. She had lived a wild life, thinking she would become an alpha's mate someday in her Sunset Mountain Wolf Clan, but things went differently. She had come to wholeheartedly love this human who took care of her and brought her to this stage where she wouldn't let go of him even if he tried to chase her away.
Transforming into her human self in his embrace, her alluring face entered his view, whereupon he instantly leaned and snatched her crimson lips, smashing his passion on her while Nadia also reached her salacious pink tongue out, brimming with needy emotions as she held his head and began to breathe heavier.
