Divine Emperor of Death

Kayan Alstreim denied this thought as quickly as it came!

How could it be so easy for Evelynn to comprehend a Superior Law Manifestation!?

Cultivators who have comprehended Level Four Intent and manifested a Superior Law Manifestation shouldn't pop up left and right! At least, not in this Nine Eastern Territories as far as he knew!

Moreover, just because a Law Manifestation Stage Cultivator had comprehended Level Four Intent didn't mean that the cultivator would have necessarily comprehended a Superior Law Manifestation. It was just a possibility.

Most likely, they would've just succeeded in comprehending a Grand Law Manifestation, and he felt that it was the same for this woman known as Evelynn. It was just that her comprehension in Poison Laws might've terrifyingly reached Level Four Intent!

'Yes, wasn't it said that Alchemist Davis recently bought a few Poison Essences from the Verdant Alstreim Treasure House? This should be the result of it... but only a week had passed from that time...'

'No matter what, this woman Evelynn, couldn't have experienced a big change in this short period of time, which means that she was already strong, a talented junior like us...'

Just like him, Ravalat Alstreim, Kayale Alstreim, Weiss Alstreim, and others who could differentiate also possessed similar doubts about Evelynn. However, no one bothered to inquire.

Instead, their expressions were somber.

Evelynn's battle prowess that allowed her to battle almost a stage above meant that she was better than them!

Although it wasn't a full-fledged battle, they knew Diamanda Alstreim's battle prowess was a level above her cultivation base, and the fact that Evelynn managed to injure her with a precise attack despite being almost a stage lower spoke volumes about her prowess.

They simply couldn't accept this fact, but they had no choice but to accept with reality placed in front of them.

The expression of the women fell.

Doesn't this mean that they were not worthy of being with Alchemist Davis?

All this while, they thought that since they had better background, character, and prowess, they were more deserving than Evelynn, but after Evelynn's true prowess was revealed, they couldn't help but suddenly be engulfed by a sense of inferiority.

Almost all of the women present felt like they had lost their eligibility to even earn the favor of Alchemist Davis, making them further wallow in their inferiority.

Davis looked at the younger generational experts' complex expression.

'Ah... This was what I needed. Now, I can send them off, and they wouldn't be disgruntled at all since they now know their place...!'

He inwardly grinned, about to speak, but suddenly he looked towards the far end of the hall, the entrance. His gaze didn't just stop there but passed through the passageway before landing on the entrance to the ninth floor of the Purple Guest Palace.

A person dressed in white robes appeared. It was a blonde-haired young man with purple eyes, evidently a youth from the Alstreim Family. He didn't land on the surface of the ninth floor but flew as he entered.

He didn't even bother to announce himself, but straightaway flew towards the hall. By this time, more and more heads turned, and everyone became mildly confused before their eyes widened in abrupt disbelief.

However, it only took a moment before their disbelief changed into a mocking smile.

"Heh! Look at that idiot arrive after everything had happened! Wait! Does he actually think that he has the status to be seated with us?"

"Moreover, trying to obtain favor at this point in time? Wouldn't it be more appropriate to just beg!?"

"Haha! Fellow brother, don't worry. Let's see what that trash has in store for us. I am very curious as to what kind of gift he has brought with his meager wealth."

"Hmph! That trash rather had a wealthy backing. It is possible for him to rake in wealth to present a suitable gift to Alchemist Davis." Another woman spoke with annoyance etched on her face.

Everyone was laughing and jeering at the person who was on his way here.

'What ugliness... They're coping up with their inferiority through bullying other people...' Davis had the urge to facepalm.

However, it was clear to him what kind of environment they grew up in because only through pushing others down could they show their true worth.

On the other hand, he saw that some people's expression didn't change much. People like Kayan Alstreim, Kayale Alstreim, Ravalat Alstreim, and Weiss Alstreim appeared as if they were ignoring the young man.

Perhaps, they didn't even want to acknowledge his presence?

Meanwhile, Sophie Alstreim possessed a curious expression while Claudius Alstreim was completely lost. He came from the countryside, so he was unaware of who this youth was or why he was looked down upon since almost everyone seem to be despising him.

The young man finally arrived in front of the crowd, his expression bearing not much of a change other than indifference and confidence towards the jeering that fell in his ears. However, when he looked at Alchemist Davis, a smile inadvertently appeared on his lips.

"Edgar Alstreim greets Esteemed Alchemist Davis!" He clasped his hands and gave a deep bow.

Davis stared at Edgar Alstreim, who maintained that deep and respectful bow for three whole seconds! He knew that was the gratitude the other party was showing to him for healing his dantian, the lower dantian to be exact.

The youths who saw this had their lips faintly curved into a mocking smile on their face. To maintain this pose of humility for three seconds could only be given to masters, parents, and heaven and earth.

'As expected of a cripple...'

They were rather feeling embarrassed for him, inwardly cursing why he would stain the name of the Alstreim Family with this long three-second bow.

"Have you also come to congratulate me like these youths?" Davis voiced out, but his expression remained indifferent.

On the other hand, Evelynn became wide-eyed as she saw Davis remain indifferent.

How could he accept this bow from his grandfather!? She was rather worried that his lifespan would drop from being half-believing about superstitions.

However, she didn't say anything as she knew that they had to act their part.

Edgar Alstreim raised his head as he smiled, but everyone else became stunned as they saw him shake his head before they heard.

"I have not come to see your esteemed self."

'...?'

Isn't this trash here to gain favor like them? Why was he declining the basic etiquette that was required of him? Could it be that only he was trash but also brain-dead?

The next second, they became interested in knowing how Alchemist Davis would respond to this slight. If Sophie Alstreim's action of gifting Evelynn couldn't be considered a slight in his books, then at least, this could be considered a slight, right?

"Oh?" Davis's lips curved a bit, "Then what have you come here for?"

"I have come for someone else..." Edgar Alstreim replied.

However, he turned to look at Evelynn before giving her a clasp of his hands.

"Alchemist Davis's wife is gorgeous and elegant. No wonder he would be head over heels for your esteemed self as the rumors stated."

Evelynn seemingly became ecstatic to be acknowledged by her grandfather-in-law. Her lips almost widened, but she suppressed it and instead nodded her head as a form of recognition.
