Divine Emperor of Death

Princess Isabella nodded her head and looked at the unharmed space before her. It made her think that a battle didnʼt happen in the first place, making her doubt her eyes.

”This illusion is extremely powerful...” Princess Isabella narrowed her eyes.

Davis solemnly nodded his head. His Soul Sense was fooled into thinking that this place in front of them wasnʼt destroyed or had any kind of destruction for that matter.

It was a pure garden that had ingredients aligned over the entire but Davis and Princess Isabella knew that none were real!

A while ago, Davis and Princess Isabella were already hiding just near the residence. So even they sensed the High-Level Spirit Stoneʼs undulation, they instantly shot towards it while being cloaked in the Dark Concealing Shroud Art.

Once they arrived, they saw the scene.

Princess Isabella rather moved out of her own and preemptively launched a fist towards the impostorʼs back.

Davis had the premonition that the perpetrator could be a Law Sea Stage Expert, so he was rather cautious and didnʼt go near the impostor, otherwise, he knew that he wouldʼve gotten instakilled!

Nevertheless, his concerns were proved to be true.

Hence, when he maintained his distance, he thought of supporting Princess Isabella while using his soul force but then he rejected that idea and instead used Death God Eyes to see the impostorʼs true name.

Momentarily, he became shocked while Princess Isabella battled the impostor! He quickly came out of his reverie and closed the distance but he then sensed the flying blade come out of nowhere.

The moment he saw that flying blade, his soul force flared and attacked the flying blade but even then, it only managed to slightly move it! The flying bladeʼs energy was too strong for him to make it waver but Princess Isabella dodged it.

When he looked towards the source, he saw a black shadow surface out of nowhere, even initially eluding his soul sense! However, he quickly activated his Death God Eyes!

Davis became shocked again as he was unable to view the name or the real identity of the black shadow person! He concentrated his senses as long as he can but still failed to see through! This meant that the black shadow person was undoubtedly guarding his soul with his Law Sea Stage Cultivation!

Davis doubted if this was that shadowy personʼs cautiousness because he used his Peak-Level Mature Soul Stage Soul Forging Cultivation to deflect the flying blade and in doing so, warned the black shadow, that he, the Conferred Queenʼs protector was here.

And the protector had a reputation for possessing a strong Soul Forging Cultivation and a mighty Essence Gathering Cultivation even though the latter was fake!

Fortunately, perhaps fearing the ʼprotectorʼsʼ strength, they escaped.

Otherwise, he and Princess Isabella wouldʼve had to escape!

Davis arranged the flow of events in his mind and said with a chuckle.

”That said, I managed to figure out the real identity of the impostor...”

Princess Isabella widened her eyes, thinking that it was his soul sense again.

”I should continue to train my Soul Forging Cultivation soon... So, who is it?”

Davis shook his head and looked towards the side as he saw two people nearing them.

It was none other than Alchemist Yen and Agis Stirlander!

Alchemist Yen visibly panicked as he saw the Conferred Queen and her extremely powerful masked protector. He literally threw himself to the ground as he kneeled on all fours and opened his mouth.

”Conferred Queen! This is a misunderstanding!”

Alchemist Yen sweated heavily as he possessed a pleading expression on his face. The moment the Conferred Queen entered this place and attacked a person resembling the Third Prince, he knew what would entail from now on!

The Third Prince had been framed!

Just a while ago when the black shadow figure appeared in the battle, Alchemist Yen had received a transmission!

It was the Third Prince and it seemed that he was really in seclusion, at least going by the owner of the voiceʼs words!

Realizing the implications of the situation of being framed, he quickly informed the situation to the Third Prince and told the experts who were protecting this residence to not enter into the scene as it would further complicate things.

In any case, they all didnʼt dare enter fearing for their lives as they felt Low-Level Law Sea Stage undulations! Something that they couldnʼt clearly defend against themselves.

Currently, Alchemist Yen had no choice to but do his best and explain to the Conferred Queen that this entire situation wasnʼt the Third Princeʼs fault!

He didnʼt know if the Conferred Queen would completely believe him or not but the face-flickering man, clad in a powerful illusion and present in front of them a while ago undoubtedly gave him the opportunity to explain!

”Misunderstanding?” Princess Isabella coldly asked as she became irritated when someone interrupted and curbed her curiosity.

She didnʼt even care if this person unknown to her kneel. To her, all of these people deserved a severe punishment even if it werenʼt death since they were secretly investigating her.

But Davis had already told her how Agis Stirlander was Natalyaʼs grandfather, so she was rather calm, suppressing her anger for him. To someone who had made moves against her, she always tended to be ruthless.

Only a single man had managed to get into her heart despite the constant trouble from men she frequently attracted. Nevertheless, she still had to act her part as the angered Conferred Queen.

”Young L-Lady, this is a scheme to frame the Third Prince... I would like to make it known that the person youʼve beaten up isnʼt the Third Prince, Alexi Ethren but someone else!”

”Why should I believe you? It seemed that the Alstreim Family is intent on protecting me, yet you people all dare to ignore the current hegemonyʼs rule and target me!?” Princess Isabella angrily echoed.

”Young L-Lady!”

”Shut up! You think I didnʼt listen to what you said about me!?”

Alchemist Yen further trembled as he covered when the pure physical might fell on him, suppressing him in the process. Even then, he didnʼt find it offensive and tried his best to gain understanding and forgiveness.

”This... Y-Young Lady, I deeply apologize and kowtow for my wrongs!”

”But, in reality, we were unaware of this mess as only Agis Stirlander knew about it!”

Agis Stirlander became aghast as he looked at the Conferred Queen. Indeed, he was the one who was fooled around by an impostor to conduct the investigation on the origin of the Conferred Queen.

He thought that it was the Third Princeʼs wish but it was just as Alchemist Davis Loret said, the person he had been feeding information to was someone else entirely.

While the Third Prince was secluded in cultivation, he had been behaving like a traitor! Even worse, a puppet who helped frame oneʼs master, a backstabber!

Agis Stirlander instantly became ashamed! His legs gave in from being deeply ashamed as he kneeled on the ground.

Princess Isabella glanced at Agisʼs defeated figure before she eyed Davis. Seeing that he did nothing about him, she wondered if he would at least express a word of consolement for the sake of Natalya.

At the same time, there were undulations of someone flying in the distance. It only took a few seconds for the new figure to show up.

Dark blue hair, and a calm face with gentle features that looked unusually solemn. This person looked the same as the impostor but different than the impostor, he was genuine.

The Third Prince of the Ethren Empire, Alexi Ethren!
