Divine Emperor of Death

The black stains in the half red karma thread were no more... It was as if her negative emotions completely disappeared, nowhere to be seen.

From her words, he could tell that...

”You...”

”If you truly said what you meant, it doesnʼt matter if we love each other, right?” Mo Mingzhi took a step forward as her eyes glazed.

Davis had a not so amused expression on his face as he lifted his hand.

A few moments of silence emerged before his lips curved into a grin, wanting to put her down, ”Iʼm married!”

Mo Mingzhiʼs slow steps hindered as she shot a glance at Clara, her eyes emitting a hostile intent.

She then smiled crazily as her gaze fell on Davis, ”Iʼm 36, single, virgin and am willing to be your mistress, what do you say?”

”I decline...” Without missing a beat, Davis replied.

Mo Mingzhi didnʼt give up as she opened her mouth, ”Donʼt worry, the world has changed and mistresses are as common as the clouds, Iʼm pretty sure itʼs even more so in a world where strength is the ruling factor.”

”First, the initiative is with my wife, second...” He pointed at Clara, ”This is my little sister, so donʼt misunderstand.”

Davis felt a headache coming when he watched her crazed reactions and the audacity in willing to become a mistress, so he felt that it would be better if he told Mo Mingzhi beforehand, making her shut her mouth and delusions, however, it looks like his explanation fell on deaf ears.

”So itʼs your sister!” Mo Mingzhiʼs eyes brightened, thinking he had been adopted by a family in the cultivation world and just when she was about to initiate a conversation with Clara, Davis stood in front of her.

”In any case, youʼll be forgetting me in a moment, so I donʼt need to worry about your nonsense...”

Mo Mingzhi went silent before she asked with narrowed brows, ”What do you mean?”

Davis coldly spoke, ”What I meant before, Iʼll be severing our Karma...”

Instantly, his fingers caught the karma thread that connected him and her, pulling on it till it almost threatened to tear apart in the middle.

”Ahhhhhhhhh!~” Mo Mingzhi shrieked as she held her head while her expression turned as if she had just seen someone she loved die miserably. She felt as if her head was splitting.

Davis narrowed his brows as he loosened his pull on the thread.

Mo Mingzhi fropped to the florr while tears cascaded down from her eyes. Her tears rapidly stained her sleeveless shirt as it fell on the surface.

ʼWhatʼs happening?ʼ Davis turned confused.

The last time he severed Karma was in prison when he experimented with a random prisoner.

When he severed the karma thread that was created between them from a casual talk, that person simply forgot him but didnʼt experience any pain.

The next moment, that person couldnʼt even recognize his existence and was simply spacing out.

A minute later, when Davis established contact with that person again, the latter seemed to vaguely recall him but couldnʼt.

But now, the situation he was witnessing was totally different.

The woman in front of him was holding her head and crying desperately as if she didnʼt want to give up something dear to her.

Davis promptly asked in his soul sea, ”Fallen Heaven, what is this supposed to mean?”

”Even if you ask me...” Fallen Heavenʼs hazy figure which actually resembled Davisʼs outline materialized in Davisʼs Soul Sea, ”The only reason I could think of is that you have influenced a large part of her life, so severing the karma between you two is like bending her will to live?”

”What?”

Why did Fallen Heaven use a doubting tone?

”... Iʼm not sure about what this new power of mine signifies...”

Davisʼs eyes widened. If he thought about this carefully, then what Fallen Heaven mentioned made sense, albeit vaguely.

When compared with that random person who hadnʼt had much of a connection with him, Mo Mingzhi had probably spent more than half of her life thinking about him.

Even when she turned 36, she still had not given her body to anyone from her words. Even the Karma threads connecting to him from her were bright red as if she was already bent on her obsession to him.

ʼIs she obsessed with me? Like crazy?ʼ Davis couldnʼt understand but then he thought about her age.

ʼ36 years old... She was obsessed with me for more than how many years? About 24 years!?ʼ His fingers twitched and moved beside his waist as he let go of the karma thread.

In a sense, he imagined that maybe severing the karma thread was no different than killing her.

Mo Mingzhi lifted up her face. She looked like an absolute mess with her black unkempt hair and wet eyes. Her lips trembled, emitting a little bit of fear as she recalled what had just happened to her.

”Is this... what you call as severing Karma?” Her pupils shook as she asked and slowly embraced herself as if seeking solace, ”It would be better off if you just kill me then...”

Davis felt complex to the extreme. This girl...

Her lips curved into an ironic smile, ”It would be quite fulfilling to be killed by you... Tian Long...”

Davis took a step back after a short pause. He turned and left towards the balcony, intent on leaving.

”Brother, you are not severing any karma by just leaving like that...”

Davis stopped in his tracks as he heard Clara speak. His sharp gaze fell on her and she felt intimidated, even so, she opened her mouth again.

”I am only saying this b-because I can see that she really wants to be killed by brother...”

”So you want me to kill her?” Davis asked with an indifferent face.

Clara shook her head, ”Didnʼt brother once tell father to take responsibility for his actions? I merely didnʼt want to brother to ignore his own rule...”

Davis looked at her in surprise. So she wanted him to take responsibility?

As to whether if he would kill or sever karma? It seemed like she didnʼt care...

”Good! Good! Clara, youʼve really learned how to speak with your elder brother!” Davis smiled as he spoke.

”Thank you for the compliment, brother...” Clara nodded her head with a smile. She looked as if she was really happy.

ʼNo... That wasnʼt really a compliment...ʼ Davis inwardly wanted to retort but then turned to look at the despondent Mo Mingzhi.

He was really in a bind on what to do with her. She had already declared her wishes to him, wanting to become his mistress and he just brushed it off as her crazy thoughts.

Even if she did really mean it, he didnʼt want to be with this woman since he already had Evelynn.

He just witnessed his parents fight a battle because of a situation caused by ʼharemʼ and of course, him.

He didnʼt want to face off with Evelynn like that, even to the point of arguing with her and that thought curbed him from disappointing her.

What else could he do for this woman who had inadvertently saved him from darkness?

He still saw her as that little girl, and her current grown-up figure superimposed with that small figure who cried desperately for her dead father.

Davis suddenly blinked as a thought encroached his mind. His thought process was too narrow.

Responsibility could be taken in many ways, and it wouldnʼt necessarily interfere with his daily life if he supported her like the last time.

ʼIn other words, I should just take responsibility no matter what the form of inconvenience I may have caused to an innocent bystander...ʼ

Davis sighed and spoke, ”Mo Mingzhi...”

Mo Mingzhi smiled as if she accepted something. Her peaceful expression indicated that she welcomed death willingly.

Davis noticed her reaction and thought that from her perspective, maybe death was a release.

”Are you interested in the cultivation world?”
