Divine Emperor of Death

Chapter 4693  Seven More Years?

After a while, Davis, Myria, and Bylai calmed from the number of resources overwhelming them. It wasnʼt fear but a sense of foreboding, like having a carriage full of assets while traveling through a forest, only to be met with bandits, even though they knew they could take them down.

The anxiety until having an encounter with the bandits would what eat them, and in this case, it was no different.

Having too much of something is going to give them needless nightmares.

Nonetheless, they smiled, knowing their Davis Family was never going to fall poor again, at least for the next few centuries.

”Our entire family would be grateful to the members of the first expedition. Personally, Iʼve been blessed with good wives,” Davis couldnʼt contain his smile.

Right about now, he fully accepted that he had sugar mommies, except they were his wives.

The number of treasures Isabella, Shirley, and Bylai gathered had thoroughly left him in awe, so much so that he felt the need to go and brag to Fairy Thunderblaze, shoving it in her face to let her know that his method of nurturing them from the beginning wasnʼt foolish at all.

Not only did they gather treasures, but they all pledged at least half or more to the Treasury.

If his nurturing method were to be solely calculated in an economical manner, devoid of love and care, then the return on investment alone was massive.

He wanted to see Fairy Thunderblaze tremble with anger and laugh at her for claiming that he was foolish.

Bylaiʼs lips curled, ”I wonder what sort of reward I would get?”

”Anything,” Davis boldly said, ”Pushing aside my love and affection, you all deserve to use a portion of your treasures without needing to worry. Since Iʼm heading to the Shard Continent, I will also obtain specific resources for all of you as much as I can. We donʼt have much Peak-Level Primarch Grade resources, right? Hmm, I think I can borrow Rioxys Plume.”

Bylai was about to demand his body, but hearing his last words, she hurriedly said, ”Yes, Rioxys Plume is inexperienced even though sheʼs powerful. I didnʼt want her to explore the Shard Continent, so I told her to guard the entrance from letting anyone dangerous near, but I doubt there would be someone from the other galaxies powerful enough to threaten her. The limit of the Shard World wouldnʼt allow such entities to enter. Regardless, the Calamities there are all frightening. I canʼt accurately assess their prowess, so I donʼt dare let her explore.”

”The Shard Continentʼs dangers are extreme. Considering the end of the continent to the east, which is nearby, weʼre probably at the edge of an individual continent in the Shard World. If we go deeper into the inner region and core region, we might encounter terrifying existences. You did will to restrain Rioxys Plumeʼs exploratory desires.”

Davis reached out his hand and patted Bylaiʼs head.

”Hehe~” She couldnʼt help but grin sweetly, weak to praise.

Regardless, she continued, ”That little spirit grew too quick in my eyes. She has the urge to find her father and mother one day.”

”Are they still in the Shard Continent?” Davis asked.

Bylai shook her head, ”I donʼt know. I considered this matter before. If they are out of the Shard Continent, or rather the entire Shard World, then it is possible for high cultivation spirits to exit this dimension. Perhaps it is a phenomenon that takes place at certain times, like the opening of the secret realm now.”

”Hmm… Itʼs possible,” Davis agreed with her theory.

He didnʼt think the spirits born here would leave since they clearly preferred the environment here. However, with calamities abounding everywhere, he couldnʼt be too sure. If Rioxys Plumeʼs mother was really a Celestial Spirit, then staying in the Shard Regions would prove to be unfruitful. She could only head to the Shard Continent, which was more dangerous.

Rioxys Plumeʼs parents left their child in a Low-Level Shard Region, which meant they didnʼt want harm to befall her, which also meant that they were going to the Shard Continent. Otherwise, if they were going to the true immortal world, they mightʼve taken her with them. Then again, the true immortal world was also strange to them, so Davis couldnʼt be too sure about their movements.

All he could guess was that they had some kind of difficulty and didnʼt want to involve Rioxys Plume in it. This shouldʼve happened in the last hundred years since the tribute to the Nefarious Darkwill Rakshasa was around that time.

ʼWait… leaving the child in a place ruled by a Realm Calamity seems dangerous enough. Did they not think it through?ʼ

Davis felt his head churn with confusion. But then, he suddenly blinked.

”Can Rioxys Plume divine?”

”You mean divination? Iʼve never seen her try it before…”

”I see. Well, if sheʼs capable of it, then her mother can do it too. In that case, it would make sense that they left their child there since she wouldʼve divined that we humans would come help her.”

”…?” Bylai blinked, wondering how he arrived at that conclusion.

Regardless, she sneaked her hands into his palms and smiled shyly.

”Itʼs been a while…”

Davis chuckled, ”Not a while but eight whole years.”

He lifted her up, causing her to cry out in surprise. Her arms wrapped around his neck, her golden eyes deeply gazing into his sapphire eyes. Her cheeks took on a full shade of red that she couldnʼt help but try to hide by hiding near his neck.

”Iʼve already waited eight years… in seven more years, Iʼll be capable of carrying an immortal child.”

Davis blinked. Her wish is that she wanted to wait, but would defer to his needs?

He couldnʼt help but smirk, ”Why an immortal child? In eight years, we might be trying for a progeny who could be even greater than an immortal.”

”…!?” Bylai nearly jumped out of his hold in shock.

”…” Davis merely smiled, not expounding on it.

The first step was the mortal step. The second step was the immortal step, and the third belonged to divinity.

He guessed that each step consisted of a new life order, so it might be possible for divinities to birth divinities. However, he was also of the opinion that there should be numerous limitations.

Davis let Bylai get down before he kissed her passionately.

Letting her lips go, he said with a passionate gaze, ”You shall try to endure for seven more years then.”

”…” Bylai couldnʼt help but tremble.

She couldnʼt tell if this was a challenge or a punishment, but she liked both.

Seeing his submissive Bylai become more turned on by his statement, Davis nearly laughed out loud. Nonetheless, he didnʼt embarrass her. He raised his hand and caressed her head again. He mightʼve exaggerated a few things since it wouldnʼt be easy for them to reach the third step in seven years, but his was the same.

He really wanted to have a child of divinity with Bylai.

”Donʼt worry. Iʼll look for that scandalous Saint to steal his fertility Divine Technique. Letʼs hope he makes some improvement with it, and we wonʼt have to wait long after breaking through and even try numerous times.” He encouraged her more.

With the Grand Geocrest Metal Spirit, the third step was not a dream. After all, from Awudanʼs memories, he already knew an Empyrean Grade Heaven-Tier Spirit was capable of entering the True Deity Stage.

”Ah, yes~” Bylaiʼs eyes lit up as she recalled something with a faint smile, ”Saint Riyal Mendez. I heard he recently became famous in the Upper Realms. He actually slept with a Primarchʼs mistress who had visited him for treatment. Then, the Six-Headed Hydra Upper Realm protected him.”

”Heʼs behind the Hexadra Clan now?”

”Indeed. Theyʼre roaming around here. I tried to capture them, but they have gained the support of the Nine-Headed Hydras. I didnʼt want needless trouble, and theyʼre staying away from us too, so I didnʼt go out of my way to end them.”

”Heh!” Davis sneered, ”So the Hexadra clowns are here. Iʼll find and torture them to death. Before that, Myria, letʼs go. Iʼll leave you with Dalila.”

”Okay~” Myria nodded.

Thanks Emross for the Magic Castle!
