Divine Emperor of Death

Chapter 4647: Priestess Serpent

The blind serpent’s shock lasted only a heartbeat before she stood up by raising her body with her tail. Just as she bowed, the door behind Davis opened, and a blue-haired beauty entered with a panicked expression.

”Priestess...!”

She barely managed to call out before she fell down and hit the table.

Davis pulled her into an illusion. A fleeting thought emerged that he was using illusion a lot these days, but his gaze stayed on the woman with a serpent bloodline before him.

Her expression was one of a cold majesty, a serpentine beauty draped in sapphire silk that shimmered in the aquamarine light. Her long, silver-white hair flowed with an untamed grace. Her dress clung to her figure in elegance while also having a plunging cut over her cleavage and waist, revealing both her allure and figure.

Her lower body’s scales glistened with azure hues, nearly transcending the color as though she were a statue made up of crystals.

Davis scanned her with an unrestrained gaze before glancing at the blue-haired beauty that he had brought into an illusion.

He recalled where he had seen her.

Returning his gaze, Davis opened his mouth at the white-haired beauty.

”It’s you. You acted like a servant while following this blue-haired woman, but it turns out that you have a special identity among them. A Priestess for what exactly?”

Davis didn’t wait for her to answer as he raised the blood essence vial in his hand, ”This is yours, isn’t it? Don’t you think it was a little too careless for you to send it to me? You should know that I could trace it back easily with my powers, so is this a trap?”

Before the white-haired beauty could reply, Fairy Thunderblaze appeared behind Davis as she closed to door and leaned against it as she folded her hands beneath her bosom.

There was a non-committal look on her face as her lips moved, ”I told you that he’d easily trace it back. You didn’t listen.”

The white-haired beauty’s expression twitched behind her semi-transparent white veil.

”I had erased the karmic connection the blood essence had with me, but it seems like the Divine Emperor of Death’s karmic powers are far more ridiculous than I expected.”

Davis didn’t turn to look back at Fairy Thunderblaze, but he connected this white-haired beauty with her and came to a conclusion when he said ’It’s you’.

”Why did you two save me?” He asked the question that was churning in his heart.

He realized that this white-haired beauty before him and Zenova Artoria were the two people he had seen back then using his Karmic Sight and the Divine Verdant Time Sand.

The white-haired beauty really had a hard time grasping how he found out so soon, but she smiled.

”Let me introduce myself. I’m Ophirya Kaelis, a Priestess of the Nightshade Ocean Phantasm Serpent Clan, but my true identity is the Divine Oracle of the Dreamsilk Karmic Usurper Serpent Clan. I’m also a Divergent Beast. It’s a pleasure to meet you.”

”...”

Davis’s expression had frozen.

He had no idea about the history of the races she mentioned just now, but the Dreamsilk Karmic Usurper Serpent didn’t seem like an ordinary name for a race. It sounded like a calamitous name for a Void Calamity or a Realm Calamity.

He came back to himself a moment later and blinked, ”You are a Divergent? Why did you help me, or did you want to harm me? Did Fairy Thunderblaze stop you?”

He turned to look back at Fairy Thunderblaze before returning his gaze.

Ophirya Kaelis smiled lightly, ”I knew you existed even before you entered the secret realm through the oracle’s astronomical map. There’s a great void around the Celestial Transcendent Galaxy that I didn’t want to get pulled into, yet at the same time, I was horrified to know that it is also where my fate intertwines.”

Saying this much, she leaned back, pursing her lips, ”I don’t know if I will suffer in this void, but I felt that implanting a seed of karma would help me avoid whatever danger I encounter in the future. Hence, I paralyzed Almer Spacewill. It doesn’t matter if Fairy Thunderblaze threatened me with her looks that could kill. I will have made the same decision since our fate will intertwine later, and someday, I know you will help me as though it was natural, so it doesn’t make sense for us to meet now.”

Her voice was filled with confusion as she gazed at Fairy Thunderblaze and the Divine Emperor of Death.

It was as though this wasn’t how she thought it would play out.

”Is it because I desired the broken spindle, a karma treasure that would inevitably affect one’s fate?” Unable to take the silence, Ophirya Kaelis wryly smiled.

”...”

Davis liked to respond that it was because of him instead, since no matter where he went, he would inevitably change the course of life for many people unless they were anchored to him like his wives and family.

It was inevitable that when his bubble burst, the rest of the bubbles would explode as well, leading to a great calamity for his family.

”Great void...” Davis worded it out as he contemplated it.

It wasn’t long before he raised his head and smirked, ”Are you Fairy Thunderblaze’s long-lost sister? You all want to sell me some debts? I had enough...”

He nearly rolled his eyes before he turned to look at Fairy Thunderblaze, ”Where did you meet her?”

Fairy Thunderblaze’s lips curled, ”Right after you were miserably twitching on the ground while holding your head.”

”How good of you to restrain yourself from kidnapping me again. You have matured.” Davis looked at her as though he had personally tutored her and watched her mature.

”...”

Fairy Thunderblaze’s smile faded, ”You should thank me since I didn’t grab the ring and flee to another galaxy. I know that ring had that kind of worth.”

”Well, thank you then.” Davis chuckled, ”Still, if you did grab the ring, then I would’ve easily caught up to you, so you made the right choice. I also marked the cursed artifact. Those Heaven’s Warriors are probably fleeing frantically right about now. Do you want to give chase with me?”
