Divine Emperor of Death

Chapter 325 You Have To Wait Until Marriage



"Didn't I tell you guys not to be shocked..." Davis felt helpless. He had expected this outcome.

The silence pervaded the Throne Hall for a few more seconds before Logan opened his mouth as he muttered, "Good! Good! Excellent!"

Meanwhile, Claire was absolutely dumbfounded. Her world view was wider than Logan, so she understood the implications behind Davis's progress.

She could somewhat make sense if he had made a breakthrough in Essence Gathering Cultivation or Body Tempering Cultivation, but to make multiple breakthroughs in Soul Forging Cultivation in such a short time, she really couldn't believe it!

She turned to Clara for verification because she couldn't believe her own ears, "Is what he's saying true?"

Clara although felt dizzy, still nodded her head. Not only did Clara feel dizzy but Evelynn too, besides, she couldn't hide the shock on her face.

Claire's thought process stopped working for a moment when she received Clara's answer.

A few seconds later, she sighed.

She had a lot of questions to ask, like was his foundation stable? What did he experience to receive an increase in Soul Forging Cultivation to this stage? Did he use any shortcuts to gain this power in exchange for power? What kind of dangers did he encounter?

Meanwhile, the simple-minded Logan felt that this was the best day of his life.

His son returned with a powerful cultivation base which made him ascend to cloud nine. Which man didn't dream of this happening to them?

"Wonderful! With your cultivation level, you could basically traverse unbridled in the Grand Sea Continent!" Logan said as he patted Davis's shoulders with a proud expression on his face.

To that, Davis simply shook his head, "The Ruth Empire's Princess, Isabella Ruth has already reached the Seventh Stage in Body Tempering Cultivation."

"What!?" Logan's eyes went wide.

Claire's eyes narrowed, "Is that true?"

Davis nodded his head and explained, "Yes, I crossed the spatial tunnel with her, but we parted ways after reaching this side. She probably went to her Ruth Empire, checking whether if it is safe and sound..."

"Oh..." Claire nodded in understanding.

"I and Claire are both at the Fifth Stage in Essence Gathering Cultivation, yet she has already reached the Seventh Stage?" Logan felt doubtful, so he really couldn't help but ask.

After all, they were both in the same generation.

"It's because she had cleared the King Grade Trial of her Empire's Immortal Inheritance." Explained Davis.

He looked at their expressions and could see that they were really disappointed at themselves.

"That is a skill too!" Logan shook his head.

"Then why don't you two try to take on the trial? Davis asked as he felt confused.

Claire shook her head, "There are two conditions required to fulfill to take on the trial of the Ice Phoenix Immortal and Fire Phoenix Immortal."

"Firstly, your age has to be lesser than 32. Secondly, your cultivation needs to be lesser than the Fourth Stage in Essence Gathering Cultivation, meaning that you should either be at the Third Stage or below."

"Look at Clara, she cleared the Emperor Grade Trial, and so managed to step up from the Second Stage to the Fourth Stage."

"Woah! Clara did? No wonder..." Davis nodded his head in understanding but he instantly turned to look at Claire in shock, "Wait! Emperor Grade!?"

Claire nodded with a casual smile, "Yes, I didn't expect it either."

"Awesome! This can't any better for my little sister!" Davis enthusiastically cheered as he looked at Clara.

"Clara, I'll later ask you about the specifics and we should sometime spar too!"

"Hmm!" Clara nodded enthusiastically. Her icy cold expression was nowhere to be seen. Maybe it was because she got to see her brother after a long time.

"Then mother, you said the age requirement should be lesser than 32, doesn't that mean Princess Isabella wouldn't be able to clear a higher grade trial anymore?"

Claire shook her head, "We don't know anything about that Immortal Inheritance. Requirements are entirely set up by the entities who created the Immortal Inheritances. In Clara's case, she said that the Ice Phoenix Mistress was the one who set up the requirements for one to participate in the trial."

"Oh... That means there might be Immortal Inheritances that might accept a participant who is even a thousand years old, no?"

Claire chuckled, "If you manage to find an Immortal Inheritance such as that, then your luck can be said to be extremely heaven-defying."

"They are not putting up requirements for fun, there's a reason behind it you know..." Logan shook his head looking as if he was exasperated.

"Oh! Then I ask Father Emperor to explain the reason..." Davis formally bowed as he asked.

Logan froze as he stammered, "Ho... How would I know what those Immortal entities are thinking!?"

The others silently chuckled.

Logan's face flushed from embarrassed, "First of all! You have a master! Didn't your master explain it to you!?"

This time, Davis froze.

He quickly thought up something and said while scratching his head, "My master said that he will only bother to teach me Soul Forging Cultivation. As for other things, he said I should make an effort to explore the world myself."

"Good! A master should be like that! Feeding you with a spoon might have ruined you, so you should listen to your master more!" Logan smilingly said as he satisfactory nodded his head.

Davis inwardly laughed thinking that there was no such master but he kept nodding his head too. He took a glance at Clara and saw that she had no opinion on the matter.

Maybe because he thought of Old Man Garvin when he spoke that line but that didn't matter now. He was getting on how her power; her Transcendent Truth Eyes worked.

Speaking of things that mattered...

"By the way..." Davis suddenly said.

It caught the attention of everyone and they kept their ears open.

"Though I may only just returned and have a lot to talk about, I think it can wait..." As Davis uttered these words, he slowly turned to look at Evelynn.

Their eyes met and time seemed to instantly slow down for them.

He walked towards her and clasped her hands with his own. A gentle yet caring smile on his face remained while their heartbeats slowly but surely synced together.

Just when he was about to say something, he was interrupted.

"You have to wait until marriage!" A voice echoed out with a sneer.

Davis closed his eyes as a vein popped up on his forehead. Even Evelynn got out of her trance and blushed, but no one seemed to notice that.

He opened his eyes and said, "Says the one who has a harem holed up in his Royal Castle."

"You!" Logan shuddered as he took two steps back and pointed at him.

Davis widened his eyes as he looked at him and said one more time, "Says the one who was holed up in his Empress's Quarters when the so-called 'unknown' intruder showed up."

*Plop!~*

Logan fell down on his back and looked at him in shock.
