Divine Emperor of Death-Novel

Chapter 1766: Don’t Bother

Sect Master Lea Weiss appeared extremely abashed under Davis’s hold.

By this time, she had already realized what had happened and couldn’t help but feel ashamed. She didn’t know why Davis was here, together with Ancestor Cornelia, in this wooden hut that was meant for one going seclusion to encounter heavenly tribulation, but still, his hold left her feeling vulnerable and confused, unable to do or say anything as she could just stare at him.

Her beauty became more charming that when Davis realized that she went as far as to create a family with him, his hold couldn’t help but loosen up.

Sect Master Lea Weiss shook her hand out of his grasp and turned around to leave as she took a few steps forward towards the exit.

“Stop!”

However, a forceful voice echoed out, causing her to freeze.

“Who said you can leave?” Ancestor Cornelia’s voice became cold, “You can’t even thank the person who saved you from unresolvable injuries? I don’t remember my Burning Phoenix having such a rude Sect Master.”

She then turned to look at Davis, “Emperor of Death, this is why I told you to save her after she woke up and realized how worse her injuries were…”

“… It’s fine.”

Davis glanced at Ancestor Cornelia, wondering what she was planning or was merely angered enough again to yell at her. There was a few moments of silence when Ancestor Cornelia’s lips moved again.

“You-“

“I thank the Emperor of Death for healing me.”

Sect Master Lea Weiss turned around and instantly bowed her head as she unwittingly interrupted Ancestor Cornelia. Her eyes were not even looking at him but all the way to his feet.

“Now, if you’ll excuse me.”

She spoke and raised her head about to turn around when a voice echoed.

“Sect Master Lea Weiss, since you failed, you are aware of the consequences, right?”

“…”

There was a moment of silence before Sect Master Lea Weiss spoke again.

“I don’t want to talk about it now. Give me some time-“

“You don’t want to talk about it? Why don’t you say that to the thousands of disciples and elders who died because of you attracting the four hegemons of the wicked path, which is far greater than any of your predecessors attracted.”

“What?”

“Their sacrifice would’ve been at least worth it if you had succeeded, but you dared to fail and even have the gall to ask me for some time to escape from the consequences? Just because you have power now, do you think you stand above all and do whatever you want now? Good! Very good! What a good Sect Master I’ve placed my faith in…!”

Ancestor Cornelia’s breathing became hard while the anger in her voice grew more and more.

Sect Master Lea Weiss appeared shaken as her soul sense had already spread out and confirmed the destruction caused near the Crimson Ridge Gate by this time. Her expression became pale as she imagined what could’ve happened.

Davis was here because of the alliance! Not because he learned of her weakness and wanted to take advantage of her as she confusedly mused but to protect the sect!

“Ancestor!”

Her knees abruptly bent and struck the ground as she kneeled, bowing her head in shame while her body deeply trembled.

“Please punish me.”

“Punish you?” Ancestor Cornelia’s eyes sharply narrowed, “How can I punish you? Do you want me to further squash my Burning Phoenix Ridge’s ability to thrive by punishing you? Ridiculous!”

Sect Master Lea Weiss closed her eyes as her body kept trembling. She was like a child berated by her mother despite the power she held in her hands.

Looking at this scene, Ancestor Cornelia’s anger died a bit as her expression became soft, but it hardened again as she took a deep breath.

“You want to be punished? So be it. Leave after you inspect yourself. Don’t return to the sect until you hunt down and kill the Blood World Emperor, Deprived Soulstir Emperor, and Infernal Lightning Emperor. With your power, I’m sure you can do it as long as you lead them out of their powers.”

“Yes!”

Sect Master Lea Weiss kowtowed three times, not bothering about the fact that Davis also stood beside Ancestor Cornelia. She then kneeled straight, still having her head down as she dared not look at them.

“Ancestor, you said that four hegemons attacked us?”

Sect Master Lea Weiss’s voice was cold, and it could be ascertained that the pride ingrained in her voice had returned.

Ancestor Cornelia nodded.

“Emperor of Death already killed the Spatial Blight Emperor, so all that’s left are those three wicked path hegemons.”

“…!?”

Sect Master Lea Weiss’s eyes shook, but Ancestor Cornelia continued.

“If I’m right, they’ll try to escape from the Emperor of Death by ascending to the immortal world, but for that, they need to do some preparations to conceal their wicked sins from the heavens so that they can lower the prowess of the heavenly flames. Until then, take some rest…”

“No, I must head out now…!”

Sect Master Lea Weiss shot up as she floated, looking as if she was about to tear down a hole in the wooden hut, when an amused voice suddenly echoed.

“Trying to escape from your imaginary husband, are you?” Follow current novelenglish.net . s on NovelEnglish.net

“…!?”

Sect Master Lea Weiss’s body shook as she inevitably recalled the contents of her Heart Demon Tribulation. Her cold expression trembled in front of his stare as though she was unable to keep up her appearance.

Davis couldn’t help but take a good look at her again as he saw her shimmering crimson eyes.

Lea Weiss donned a crimson robe that appeared more blood-red in tone. Her curvy assets had attracted him plenty, and the latent charm she unveiled could probably be even equal to the Fiendish Yin Empress of the Blooming Passion Abode if she proactively tried to seduce him as the Fiendish Yin Empress once tried.

However, her reluctance and embarrassment stemming from her failure and the mess up she did when she woke up were plentily attractive, even slowly creeping upon him as if she were enticing him.

Davis released his breath as his lips moved.

“You would be in a coma for a few days if I hadn’t healed you, so give me an answer. Why did you fall in love with me and defile me in your Heart Demon Tribulation?”

“You…!”

How can a man be defiled? She felt ridiculous as she shook her head!

“Who fell in love with you? I didn’t…!”

“So you didn’t call me husband and ask where our child was just a few moments ago?”

Davis raised his brows, causing Sect Master Lea Weiss to become tongue-tied. Her expression constantly trembled before she suddenly waved her hands.

“I should’ve killed you for forcefully taking me in my tribulation…”

“…?”

“Oh, you even had ‘violent’ fantasies about me? Very good!”

Davis was flabbergasted, but then he provoked her as he felt offended. As far as he could tell, both Tia and Lea Weiss imagined him robbing something important from them during their Heart Demon Tribulation.

Was he such a bad person in their eyes?

On the other hand, Sect Master Lea Weiss’s eyes shook as blood rushed to her head. She clenched her teeth so hard that if she kept it up, it was possible that blood would start dripping from her gums. However, tears began to overflow in her eyes as she couldn’t help but feel immense pain in her heart.

“Ah, right! I did fall in love with you unwittingly! So what!? You’re my favored disciple’s husband! I can’t be with you!”

*Bzzz!~*

A wave of oppressive undulations struck Davis as he backpedaled two steps back and lost his footing as he sat on the bed. Tears fell on the wooden planks before Sect Master Lea Weiss blasted a hole in the ceiling of the wooden hut and rushed outside.

“Impudent!”

Nadia’s voice echoed outside, causing Davis to send a soul transmission.

“Nadia, don’t…”

Outside, Nadia had almost intercepted Sect Master Lea Weiss, but she stayed her hand upon hearing his voice. She looked at the disappearing figure of Sect Master Lea Weiss before she shot towards Davis and stepped into the wooden hut.

“Master, I can’t allow this disrespect to pass.”

“Disrespect?” Davis shook his head, “She’s just heartbroken that her Heart Demon Tribulation isn’t real…”

“Indeed.” Ancestor Cornelia deeply nodded her head.

“Your image is already ingrained in her after failing the Heart Demon Tribulation. As I said, that is what it means to fail in a Heart Demon Tribulation. I doubt she could overcome it, so if you make a move on her, she will no longer care about appearances and easily fall. That’s why when you… uhm… you forcefully took her in her Heart Demon Tribulation as she said, she no longer cared about morals and accepted you.”

Suddenly receiving a strange glare from Davis, Ancestor Cornelia felt embarrassed as she knew that she was found.

“At least, that’s what I can infer with my life experience.”

She hesitated for a few seconds before her lips moved again.

“So, will you-“

Abruptly, her eyes narrowed as she took out a messaging talisman.

“Ancestor! Sect- Sect Master Lea Weiss rushed out of the sect, heading towards the wicked path Territories!”

Grand Elder Claus Strom’s voice could be heard from the messaging talisman before Ancestor Cornelia nodded.

“I know. There’s no need to stop her but just in case, send Grand Elder Newgate Stein to protect her with his life in case something happens.”

“Yes!”

At this time, Davis patted his robe and stood up, floating towards the ceiling.

“Where are you going?”

“I don’t know about her, but didn’t I say that I will make them experience the consequences for offending me?”

Davis’s sapphire eyes flashed with cold light as he shot a glance at Ancestor Cornelia, which made her heart tremble.

His figure then shot towards the skies from the wooden hut like Lea Weiss while Nadia remained, receiving a request from him to guard the Burning Phoenix Ridge in the meantime.

Ancestor Cornelia appeared flabbergasted before she voiced out in the messaging talisman.

“Uh, don’t bother. Grand Elder Newgate Stein is more needed here.”

“Huh?”

Echoed a confused voice from the messaging talisman.
