Divine Emperor of Death

Chapter 4751  Hundred Within A Century

Davis sat cross-legged on the bed, his forehead beaded with perspiration.

His life energy swirled around his body like serpents, and his soul force kept growing. Within an hour, he had replenished ninety-eight percent of his soul force. The quality of soul essences he absorbed was of Peak Empyrean Grade, and his soul was rather strong enough to match a Peak-Level Empyrean with ease, so the rate of absorption was also high.

Calming his energy, he flew up and landed before the door, walking out.

Outside the abode, he glanced at the plant lifeform reacting mildly to his presence before he turned to look at the Myriad Coiling Spirit Peak. It seems like they really didnʼt spy on him this whole time. Otherwise, he wouldʼve at least expected a shake or two. They couldʼve even sent their subordinates, but there was no one visiting them.

ʼIs the concept of time so skewed for them that they think of one or two months as nothing…?ʼ

Davis found it hard to comprehend their thoughts. He was aware that if he continued to predict their actions based on nothing but assumptions, he was more or less going to have to end up as a ghost.

Two people noticed the disturbance and came out to meet him.

Fairy Thunderblaze appeared by his side and unceremoniously wound her arm around his, causing him to turn to look at her.

”Are you fine now?”

”Good, my love.” Davis acted smitten, ”Did you experience anything strange yourself after the marks had been…”

”No, Iʼm fine.”

Fairy Thunderblaze responded softly with her smile glowing behind her veil, ”Shall we set out now?”

”Yes,” Davis nodded, ”We must escape from this place and start an empire where it will not bring shame to your ideals. I wonder if the world will accept such an empire?”

Her eyes gleamed as she looked at Davis with a fanatical gaze, ”They donʼt need to accept. They wonʼt accept since we are Divergents. But what they can do- will do is keep their mouth shut and their hands folded when they meet with absolute power. Before we erect an empire openly, it is of utmost importance that we at least reach the Exalt Stage.”

She lowered her gaze, contemplating, ”For now, itʼs better to create a hidden empire, especially for the sake of your family. Your efforts cannot be in vain. Theyʼre also your legacy.”

”…” Davisʼs lips moved once and closed before he said, ”Yes, theyʼre also my legacy, but how can they be important as you and our empire?”

Fairy Thunderblaze avoided his searing gaze, feeling this was too good to be true yet wanting to make a bed and lie in it, ”Iʼm happy that you think that way, but itʼs too soon. Iʼm aware Iʼm not well-received within your harem, so for the initial years, I think Iʼll stay hidden and influence their emotions for me positively. This way, your relationship with them also wouldnʼt be harmed.”

”…”

”It should be easier to maneuver within the harem as long as I donʼt get barred by Evelynn, Isabella, Mingzhi, and Myria… can you take care of them?”

ʼArenʼt you underestimating Natalya? As an Empyrean, sheʼll easily break the charm you cast on me the moment I stand near her. Even Shirley will sense something amiss and block your path, not mention Nadia and Eldia who have soul ties with me.ʼ Davis inwardly commented.

”Of course,” Outwardly, he patted his chest firmly, ”Leave it to me. All I need to do is call them out on a vacation or an adventure, and they will follow me without asking a single question.”

”Good.” Fairy Thunderblaze nodded. But suddenly, she frowned, ”I know you share your vision with Evelynn. Since she is an expert in Hex Arts, I assume she can also break the charm in your soul or even transfer it to herself. You need to dispel this pact or defend against it no matter what.”

Hearing her words, Davisʼs expression turned confused. After a few seconds, he shook his head.

”I donʼt understand what you mean, but sure- itʼs plain to see that youʼre afraid of Evelynn and the others because of their seniority. Donʼt worry, as long as I say I want you and firmly stand, they wonʼt say no to it. Theyʼre also good sisters. Some have already approved of you secretly.”

Fairy Thunderblaze didnʼt bother to correct his misunderstanding. In fact, she even nodded, ”They know Iʼm perfect for you. Itʼs good that they understand. As long as they understand, I donʼt need to take drastic measures, and they can still remain your lovely consorts. And donʼt worry. It is beneath me to target Shea Goldsun.”

”Haha…” Davis laughed awkwardly, ”I thought you would punish or bully her first.”

Fairy Thunderblaze turned to look at him, unamused, ”Your Shea and I are in different worlds. I never compared myself with her in the first place, but the fact that you repeatedly kept doing so irked me. Other than that, I donʼt hold a grudge over her. I doubt sheʼs a schemer. If she is, I will admit I lost to her...” She smirked.

”Thatʼs good. Shea is certainly not a schemer, but it was I who was stupid for comparing you two and almost forming enmity…” Davis sounded apologetic, even slapping his forehead lightly as though he had just realized.

Suddenly, he peeked at her, ”I heard something about a harem of ten thousand… was that true?”

”You rogue…” Fairy Thunderblaze blinked, ”You have just obtained me, but you are already after such a luxury?”

Davis awkwardly chuckled.

She giggled ever so lightly, ”If you donʼt believe me, why donʼt I show you? Back in the Wrathful Aeons Shard Region, I left a few disciples who belong to my faithless Exalt disciplesʼ sect. If you want, theyʼre yours.”

”…” Davis went silent for a moment before he laughed awkwardly, ”I was just kidding. You alone are enough for me this millennium. I donʼt have a big appetite.”

08:49

”That wonʼt do.” Fairy Thunderblaze smiled in satisfaction but shook her head, ”You need to have at least a hundred by this century. You need to start considering who you are going to pick among them. Iʼm sure you already have a few interests in your mind, but Iʼll also recommend a lot. For example, this woman…”

She turned her gaze to the spectral entity hovering by the side without showing a reaction until now.

Davis was stunned.

”Iʼm a ghost.” Lady Thunderwraithʼs expression sank, ”I canʼt create a progeny for the empire you dream of.”

Fairy Thunderblazeʼs gaze was calm, ”That is, until you practice the technique given by Davis and use the Blood Quintessence Orbs to remake your body. After that, youʼll be a fine addition to my Emperorʼs harem. You would dare reject?”

Her thunderous aura erupted, layering on Lady Thunderwraith in waves.

Lady Thunderwraith shuddered. She was quite immune to elements such as fire and lightning, even as a ghost, because she practiced yin lightning, but Fairy Thunderblazeʼs fire and lightning were overwhelmingly stacked against her resistance.

”Thatʼs enough.” Davis frowned.

”But my Emperor, she knows our secrets. It is unwise to let her leave.” Fairy Thunderblaze said in a calm tone.

Davis gazed at the shivering ghost and shook his head.

”Thatʼs why I invited her to our power. In our power, her rights and freedom are protected as long as she stays loyal. My Empress, we really canʼt force people against their Will regarding these matters. Itʼs not good. Tyranny against oneʼs chastity is the last thing I want to emulate, even if I become a ruthless and authoritative Emperor.”

”…” Fairy Thunderblaze quivered ever so lightly.

She had so many wrongs against him, yet he had never laid a hand on her. She could only realize this after obtaining him. She couldnʼt help but wonder if she would still be this fond of him if he had forcefully taken her for all the offense she had committed. Her dignity would be shattered before she could even tie it to him.

She gazed at Davis with a grateful gaze and retracted her aura, allowing Lady Thunderwraith to ʼbreatheʼ.

”Understood, my love.” Fairy Thunderblaze lowered her head, ”I was wrong. I wonʼt force anyone as long as they donʼt make a blunder. But if they do make a blunder, donʼt think that they can get to be with you, much less live.”

She returned her gaze towards Lady Thunderwraith, her eyes sparkling crimson as though exuding killing intent.

”Iʼll go get the jade container.” Davis turned back.

After he left-

”You vixen. I dare you to release him and act like this.” Lady Thunderwraith sent her a soul transmission.
