Divine Emperor of Death

Chapter 1507 - Barred Path?

Chapter 1507 - Barred Path?

Davis shot a look at the two Low-Level Law Rune Stage Powerhouses and saw that they had stopped despite the intense amount of bloodl.u.s.t being expelled at him. He knew it would be like this once he would’ve made a move and wicked path people would rarely listen to reason, much less their powerhouses.

That’s why he instantly decided to target the weakest point of their lineup, and it seems like his thoughts had been correct when he saw them stop, not daring to attack him, afraid that it might injure the woman on his shoulders.

"Schleya!"

The Young Villa Master bellowed as if he could not suppress his worry anymore and tried to make his way to her before he got stopped by one of the Ninth Stage Powerhouse who had stood in front of him to save him.

"Fellow powerhouse, for what reason have you taken our Young Blood Demoness hostage? Do you know that you’re turning the entire Blood Pledge Villa into your enemy with your senseless actions?"

’And now they’re willing to talk...’

Davis inwardly sneered before he turned around and headed towards the Territory Gate, his voice echoing.

"Don’t follow, or I cannot assure you the safety of your Young Blood Demoness."

"Wait! You can’t just take her away like this!"

"It’s not like I’m interested in her. It’s your people’s fault for blocking my path when I even went far as to mention that I was a Ninth Stage Powerhouse, wanting to go my way. Right now, this Territory has really become aggressive with many powerhouses roaming this battlefield, and I’ve become bored, so it’s not wise for me to stay here as I would be needlessly targeted by the magical beasts for your stupid people’s actions against the magical beasts."

"So, there’s really no need to worry because I’ll abandon her halfway if you all don’t bar my path."

He returned his gaze to the front and entered the Territory Gate while veins popped on almost every expert in this area as they watched him leave in an unbridled manner.

"Damn it! Who would believe that, you crazy bastard!?"

That red-black robed Blood Pledge Villa Powerhouse who defended the Young Villa Master looked towards another powerhouse.

"Defend this area! I’ll go follow him!"

The other Law-Rune Stage Powerhouse nodded solemnly before the former shot towards the Territory Gate with blinding speed, followed by some overseers at the Peak-Level Law Sea Stage.

"No... my Schleya..."

The Young Villa Master’s expression became sorrowful before rage began to well up in his face. His facial expression began to twitch while it somehow became heated.

The others looked at him strangely but didn’t dare to openly mock him. Everyone did think that he was going to be cuckolded.

"What are you all looking at!? Continue to enter the battlefield to aid our brothers and kill those damn magical beasts!!!"

"Yes!!!"

The Low-Level Law Rune Stage Powerhouse, who was left behind to take care of the defense in this area, bellowed while the wicked path cultivators shook as they felt their blood boiling!

"Ahhh!!!"

"Kill those bastards and make a snakemeat out of them!"

"Yes!!!"

They began to run towards the battlefield while releasing enchanting shouts that increased the morale.

’This is bad... Most of our Mid-Level Law Rune Stage Powerhouses are battling those damn Three-Eyed White Serpents towards the east. They would not be able to make it in time or have the luxury to return...’

He thought before he glanced towards the Territory Gate, wondering how they would be able to catch this Mid-Level Martial Overlord Powerhouse.

’Exactly who is he? Wait! Could it be!?’

No one from the wicked path powers came to admit their kill of Ryzenir, and if they did, they would not be punished but awarded. However, no powerhouse truly came forward to admit that they killed Ryzenir, mostly because they didn’t have anything to prove that they killed him.

Davis was flying nonchalantly in the Territory Gate while being followed by Low-Level Law Rune Stage Powerhouse with ample distance. It was the powerhouse who spoke to him, but Davis didn’t seem bothered.

Instead, he was thinking about something.

’By this time, someone would’ve already started suspecting me. It was a good thing that I didn’t stay to hunt in the Twilight Shade Valley, or else I might have been bombarded by so many powerhouses and would’ve been forced to use Fallen Heaven or display my undulations which would bring my real identity big trouble.’

So far, he had been only purely using the physical might of his body.

Soon, he stepped out of the Territory Gate and saw two more Low-Level Law Rune Stage Powerhouses barring his path along with tens of Law Sea Stage Experts. As for the other cultivators, he ignored them all.

"Make way or die!"

Davis raised his fist and unleashed his physical might towards them. The force of his punch directly traveled towards the two powerhouses as the air visibly caved towards them, and seeing that its prowess was at Mid-Level Martial Overlord Stage, they hurriedly dodged. Some of the cultivators who were unable to dodge exploded into a mangled piece of flesh, drawing a gruesome scene.

"Halt!"

A damned dark-crimson defensive formation lit up in front of him, and its surging prowess was at High-Level Emperor Grade, leaving his eyes narrowed.

’This is bad... I can sense that four more powerhouses from the sides are on their way here. But I was right. They were guarding their positions to hunt down and defend against cultivators who come out from the dark fog.’

Moreover, he panned his gaze at the dark-crimson defensive formation and saw that it spread towards the horizons.

It wasn’t a defensive formation that covered only the Territory Gate but the entire Territorial Fog that led to the Twilight Shade Valley, causing him to understand why this formations’ prowess was at High-Level instead of Peak-Level as he felt that the Blood Pledge Villa could afford such a grand formation since it was a power persisting from ancient times.

Even their powerhouses went from two to eight in an instant while he also mused that there were many powerhouses battling in the Twilight Shade Valley.

Even though the Blood Pledge Villa was in a small-sized Territory, its powers constituted that of a mid-sized Territory’s force but not like its neighbor, the Poison Lord Villa, because the Blood Pledge Villa was also in decline instead of seeing an increase in their strength.

Nevertheless, he was still confident of getting past this defensive formation while breaking it. However, he would have to use his martial energy by then, which would reveal his undulations and even his identity if they were to ever recognize him.

Just the south of the Blood Pledge Villa Territory was the Alstreim Family Territory. He absolutely could not afford to let them know that he was the one who killed many of their experts and kidnapped their Young Villa Mistress. Otherwise, he would incur their wrath and inevitably have them invade the Alstreim Family, totally ruining the marriage occasion.

Of course, completely exterminating them was also an option in his mind, but that’s even more high profile and would invite every wicked path power to probe him.

But if he killed them as well, then the entire world would be upon him next, which just evidently makes it a retarded action for him to take. It wouldn’t be long before he ran out of soul essence and dies before even getting killed by someone else. He would never forget Fallen Heaven’s warning of his previous hosts dying even though they presumably possessed a superior, unsealed version of it.

He turned to look back and saw the powerhouses which followed him exit the Territory Gate, joining up with the two powerhouses who were already here.

"Deactivate the formation." Davis coldly spoke with his disguised voice.

"Give her back, and we’ll allow you to leave."

That powerhouse replied with a cold voice.

Davis’s eyes narrowed behind his mask. His left hand caught the woman’s t.h.i.g.h before he captured her ankle with his right hand. But, he suddenly yanked his right arm, ripping apart her leg from her knee joint!

"Ahhhh!!!~~~"

Schleya’s eyes shot wide as she woke up screaming.

Intense pain could be seen in her dilated pupils while she went from one of pain being terrified of the current situation she found herself in. Blood splashed on the floor, but she remained immobile, unable to do anything as she felt her soul under suppression while she could not even determine the fluctuations of her kidnapper because her prowess was too low.

"Bastard! How dare you!?"

That powerhouse bellowed angrily, but he didn’t dare to move, inevitably causing his body to tremble from immense rage. The other two powerhouses also looked the same, not daring to attack this powerhouse who was one level higher than them while he possessed an extremely valuable hostage.

Davis threw the dainty and desirable severed leg to the side as he spoke.

"I’m not kidding. Deactivate the formation, or should I be forced to take another leg and continue to torture your Young Villa Mistress?"

The three powerhouses had their expressions turn ugly as they saw him capture her other remaining leg while Schleya’s already trembling expression became cold while there was a deep glint of readiness in her eyes despite the fear she felt as if she was prepared to lose her other leg as well!
