Divine Emperor of Death

Chapter 4780  The Eighth Disciple Descends

”I must admit that it was very difficult to find you people; I had to go visit the Whispering Wildlands Peninsula in order to contact you.”

A handsome man with a rugged beard stood in front of Mingzhi. His short, tousled hair gave him a youthful and laid-back appearance. Clad in a black robe, his casual demeanor was accentuated more, but there was still an undeniable presence exuding from his deep green eyes.

”Well, we have a supreme genius Mystic Diviner with us. Finding us would be extremely difficult in a short amount of time.”

Mingzhi responded with grace, yet a tinge of smugness was evident in her voice.

Stella scanned the person before her with a vigilant gaze before exclaiming, ”Martial Uncle Karyot…!”

Karyot smiled with approval. He flicked his sleeve, bringing out something, ”Martial Niece, I hope you have been well. I have a letter to you from your mother.”

”…!”

Stella became visibly happy.

She reached out her hand, grabbing the letter from Karyotʼs grasp using spatial powers. It appeared in her hand, and she hurriedly unfurled the scroll to read it.

”I know you have come here to help us, but out of precaution, I will have to check your soul to see if you are possessed by some extraordinary villain.”

Mingzhi cast a glance at the letter before she returned her gaze and uttered with calmness etched on her face, ”You can reject it, but I will have to assign someone to monitor you. But fret not, since the Davis Family will definitely not wrong you. You will receive our utmost hospitality.”

”Hmm, Iʼm aware of the junior sister Myriaʼs enemies. Theyʼre not easy to deal with, considering they survived many hunts.”

Karyot shrugged as he flicked his sleeves, ”Go ahead.”

Mingzhi nodded and performed the same investigation method she employed on the Goldsun Familyʼs refugees when they were retrieved after a mission to rescue Soaren Goldsunʼs Family.

The result was that she didnʼt find any anomalies, allowing her to treat Karyot with more sincerity.

”Well, although Iʼm only an avatar, Iʼm here to assist the Davis Family under the orders of master, so if you have any instructions for me, feel free to relay. It doesnʼt matter if youʼre staying or evacuating to the Upper Realms using this chance. We will help with both, although I wouldnʼt stay long if youʼre staying.”

”Many thanks, fellow cultivator.” Mingzhi cupped her hands.

[Little Stella, it has been nearly a decade, which to us isnʼt much of a time, but I missed you dearly during this time. I hope you have been well and treated well by the Divine Emperor of Death. A lot of matters happened after we left. I also broke through to the Empyrean Stage and am currently in the third cycle. I hope you can also follow suit and become a strong foundation for the Davis Family, so you can protect them better. If you are coming to the Upper Realms, let senior brother Karyot know. He can transport you to our space. Youʼre all welcome.]

Stella bit her lips. The letter was short and concise, not carrying much emotion, but it made her cry as it was just like her mother.

Still, she wiped her tears, knowing her mother was eagerly awaiting her reunite. She also missed her mother since she had always been living in her space, while she had grown and lived under our tree for a while. That feeling of warmth and protection wasnʼt easy to forget.

”Oh, if I can trouble you to deliver this letter too.”

Karyot took out another letter and presented it to Mingzhi.

It was from the Frostcloud Sword Empress, Glacia Frigidveil.

”Tanya will be overjoyed.” Mingzhi received the letter and thanked him again.

She then brought him inside their Sanctuary and led him to a luxurious guest palace.

Karyot entered, his demeanor that of a young master as he followed them, but his mind was empty as he surveyed the landscape. He saw various ships gather toward their destination.

”We are in a state of readiness to immigrate whenever possible.” Mingzhi slightly explained.

”Oh…” Karyot nodded.

Soon, he was settled in the guest palace, and having nothing to do, he went into seclusion to comprehend Spatial Laws.

Mingzhi returned to the mansion and was searching for Tanya when Shirley appeared in front of her.

”Mingzhi, the treasures have been neatly arranged into two parts and are ready to be transported and hidden. As for the families here, they all agreed to migrate with us to the Upper Realms us but for the common populace, some are still reluctant to leave, even though theyʼll be staying in the same place within this Sanctuary.”

Mingzhi nodded, ”It canʼt be helped. The common populace is tired of having to migrate again and again. Originally, they were all refugees when the Fire Phoenixʼs Zenflame Clan lost a part of its territory to us, so they think weʼre going to abandon them in their hearts. No amount of explanation would put them at ease unless Davis arrives. They kind of… worship him…”

She blinked with a wry smile as she had already tried convincing before shaking her head, ”Regardless, the Davis Family would respect their opinion and leave them in this region in a pocket realm outside the Vast Quake Mountains of the Quake Fist Sect. Weʼll also leave them some treasures and resources. When the time is right, they will emerge and explore the vast world as powerful Immortal Emperors.”

”Alright…” Shirley said with some concern.

To her, it was best if everyone could be transported. She didnʼt want to abandon anyone.

”In any case, we should hurry. It took us one and a half months to travel from the Wrathful Aeons Shard Region to here, even with Jiayi Crystalveilʼs fast route to the Eternal Twilight Shard Region. The secret realm will close in two and a half to four and a half months. We need to hurry…!” She said twice, clearly looking worried.

Mingzhi frowned, ”Did Davis not return yet?”

Shirley shook her head, ”When I was there, darling didnʼt arrive. However, we currently have news from the secret realm that the Divine Emperor of Death was spotted near his fortress. He shouldʼve come back.”

”Mhm…” Mingzhi nodded, but in reality, she was unable to tell if someone was baiting them.

She had to make a decision, but if that decision got them stranded in the Shard Dimension, she felt like she must cut off her own head in order to apologize.

Regardless, her expression never wavered.

”Alright, weʼll leave tomorrow. Iʼll have a good talk with Dark Archbishop Cyprusio and Karyot. We might need their help to transport, but most importantly…”

Mingzhiʼs gaze gleamed with a cold light, ”… escape the Heavenʼs Warriors and many others from besieging us if our destination point seemed to have already been predicted.”

Shirley kept nodding. Since they werenʼt sure of anything and the closing of the secret realm was abrupt, everything had to be done fast without leaving anything behind. She couldnʼt imagine the pressure Mingzhi was facing as she had to prepare for all sorts of contingencies. She dreaded this feeling even while being an avid helper, so she could only praise Mingzhi for not collapsing under the pressure.

”Elder sisters! Big sisters Myria and Isabella have arrived!”

At this moment, Stellaʼs voice resounded in Mingzhi and Shirleyʼs ears, causing them to be stunned.
