Divine Emperor of Death

Daniuis walked inside a cave entrance and the surrounding walls widened in both length and width, giving enough space for more people to walk to and fro.

It was even somewhat decorated with types of furniture and paintings, making an explorer if one should ever come across wonder what history this place had in the past.

Daniuis watched the widening tunnel as he pondered over Davisʼs words for a few more times.

In truth, he had already considered disbanding the Cloud Sprong Mercenaries after all that happened but never thought of seriously implementing it since he had so many misgivings and had his concentration on rejuvenating his cultivation.

But now, even his daughter was about to be enslaved and his son about to be tortured to death!

In a few seconds, with a decisive glint in his eyes, he reached a straightened out hall like structure even though the surface of the walls was still like a cave.

The cave hall had been made to look like a normal square-shaped residence, and in it were a few rooms that housed his family members.

Three figures suddenly came out as they all welcomed him with a smile on their faces.

”What happened?” One of the women spoke with a worried expression on her face.

Daniuis looked at Su Hualing who held a four or five-year-old child in her arms as he answered, ”Donʼt worry, Iʼve already told you that you donʼt need to be wary of them.”

Su Hualing wrinkled her small nose as she pursed her lips, ”But...”

However, she sighed and then looked towards a direction, ”Lucia hasnʼt talked much ever since you came back.”

Daniuis just nodded his head.

He pinched his childʼs cheeks with a hearty smile on his face, ”I know. Just gather everyone to the hall in a few minutes.”

Just looking at his child left him with a hearty feeling, lifting him up from the depression he had wallowed in a while ago.

The three of them nodded and didnʼt speak back while Su Hualing left.

Su Huabing and Su Huajing looked at their first sister with a worried look on their faces before they heard Daniuis speak.

”How are all our children doing? Is there any word from them?”

Su Huabing and Su Hualing shook their heads as faces were even more clouded with worry.

Their children were not in the Tripartite Alliance Territory but in the Towering Cloud Hall and Falling Snow Sect. They were official members, however, only a few were at the level of Inner Disciples while the remaining were at the level of Outer Disciples.

Su Huabing birthed thirteen children while Su Huajing birthed twelve children.

At that time, they gave birth to so many children because their first sister had her womb injured.

It wasnʼt too difficult for them to share their burdens as they were triplets, especially when their first sister took care of them like they were princesses at that time.

Seeing their first sister taking care of them like they were her daughters despite not being able to give birth herself, they couldnʼt help but birth her share of children too.

It was only after recently curing two decades ago did Su Hualing give birth to Lucas and Lucia. A few years ago, she had even given birth to a baby which she held in her arms while walking around.

In conclusion, of the fate which tied the three of them along with Daniuis together for more than fifty years, they had twenty-eight children of which eighteen were in the Falling Snow Sect while seven of them were in the Towering Cloud Hall.

Those children who were in the Towering Cloud Hall purely consisted of males. As for the Falling Snow Sect, their children who went there consisted of both males and females, with females in the majority since the Falling Snow Sect is more of a female-oriented sect.

Even Lucas and Lucia were prepping to participate in the disciple recruitment trial a few years ago, but disaster struck the Cloud Spring Mercenaries, rendering them incapable of joining the Falling Snow Sect.

”The last time they contacted us was a year ago.”

”Theyʼre likely suppressed or constricted within their respective sects.”

Su Huabing and Su Huajing spoke respectively.

Daniuis nodded his head to their statements. He had already considered that this would happen when the Cloud Spring Mercenaries was destroyed, ”Theyʼre likely forced by the Grand Elders of the Tripartite Alliance. However, donʼt worry, with a few of our children possessing the inner disciple status, those Tripartite Alliance Elders wouldnʼt be able to do anything of significance other than putting some pressure.”

The two of them nodded their heads to his reply. In fact, they already knew this, but still couldnʼt help but worry for their children.

At this time, Su Hualing appeared through a door with a baby leaning on her bosoms, sleeping with steady breaths.

A second later, Lucia appeared through the same door, her expression quite absent-minded, followed by Lucas yawning in his tracks.

His wounds were dressed up in clean bandages, however, the eye that was missing in his sockets was already rejuvenated, likely through using a precious Sky Grade Pill which concentrates on regenerating an external organ.

Even his fingers had regenerated, restoring his nimbleness. However, his severed member was still in the same state.

Different types of healing pills gave different types of effects. There were all-purpose healing pills as well as pills that concentrated only on a single part of the body, even to the scope of a cell.

However, the pills that focused on the scope of a single cell was extremely rare that they were even told to be a myth as there were many scammers who sold that type of pills.

Daniuis didnʼt have an effective medicine that could regenerate that part.

”Whatʼs the matter, father?” Lucas spoke as he sat on a bronze chair. He had been resting in his room but he was woken up by his mother, stating that his father wants to speak to him.

Daniuis cast a glance at Lucia before panning his gaze over to every one of them. He then cast a sound barrier with his soul force.

”Since youʼre all here, Iʼll say it.” Daniuis straightened his posture before lifting up his chin, ”Iʼm disbanding the Cloud Spring Mercenaries.”

Suddenly, the hall turned silent.

However, it was only a moment before various voices of disbelief echoed.

”What!?”

”Are you saying the truth?”

Su Huabing and Su Hualing simultaneously echoed.

Even Luciaʼs attention had been grabbed as she turned to look at her father.

Daniuis nodded his head with a calm expression on his face, ”Weʼre moving to the Alstreim Family Territory.”

The expressions of the three wives changed, however, their heart pounded in excitement.

Was their husband finally going to return?

”But father, thatʼs rather farfetched. Everyone who has seen our posters knows of our faces...” Lucas couldnʼt help but mutter.

Different from the wives who were aware of their origins, Lucas and Lucia had no idea that their father was someone from the Alstreim Family.

”True, weʼll be relying on those masked people to help us make it past the territory gates.”

”Father, are we really relying on those outsiders?” Lucia suddenly spoke.

”Theyʼre benefactors, my daughter.” Daniuis corrected her.

Since Davis had requested him to not reveal his identity, he felt that he should follow his words. Otherwise, wouldnʼt Lucia pester Davis to return Glynʼs corpse to no end? That would result in Ninaʼs mental health to decrease and might even end up affecting her physically.

For the same reason, he had set up a sound barrier with his soul force to not let Nina hear their speech as she was resting in another room in this place.
