Divine Emperor of Death

Chapter 406 Leaving With Some Guidance

"Hehe, if it weren’t for the spirit stones you brought back brother, it would have taken a lot more time..." Edward embarrassedly spoke.

Davis could recognize that it was not humility but the truth. He knew that their talents were not as great as Shirley or Ellia to be breaking through to the Third Stage in their 13’s.

"Haha, come here, I want to talk to you all about something." Davis waved his hands, wanting them to stand in a circle including him.

Edward approached and stood beside the three of them.

"I presume you three already know about the matter about mother, father, Me and my wife heading to the First Layer soon?"

Clare, Diana, and Edward nodded their heads, but instantly, worried expressions depicted their faces.

"Within a month or two, we decided that we will leave and it has been confirmed."

Diana and Edward were stunned but Clara had an expression on her face which seemed to tell that she had already expected it.

"What? No! I am also coming!" Edward spoke as he shook his head.

Meanwhile, the mature Diana simply sighed, "I understand, we’ll take care of ourselves until you all return."

"Good." Davis responded to Diana and then turned to look at Edward, "I’m sorry little brother, the First Layer is dangerous and we are not strong enough to protect you all the time."

Edward had his eyes moist, "But... but, I reached the Revolving Core Stage!"

Davis shook his head, "Revolving Core Stage Cultivators are like everywhere. They are simply like the First Stage Cultivators here, a normal sight..."

Edward trembled but then a moment later, he opened his mouth, "I understand, I’ll continue to improve myself and hone my skills here."

Davis nodded in satisfaction as he patted Edward’s head, "Good!"

He then turned to Clara, "We are leaving, so that would mean everything within the Empire would fall into your control, are you sure you can handle it?"

"Although not as good as our father, I’ve also learned how to govern the Empire as an Emperor in these few months..." Clara replied with calm, "I’ll also reach the Law Seed Stage within a few months, maybe around the time you all leave."

Looking at her confident expression, Davis became relaxed.

A Fifth Stage Cultivator at the helm was surely assuring their hearts and minds, especially when it was their own family member.

"It’s fine, as the smart sister here, I will take care of these two!" Diana cheerfully boasted by the side.

Davis laughed at her looked at her. Though he was happy, his second little sister was awfully positive, wasn’t she?

’Wait!?’ Davis pupils dilated.

A moment later, he solemnly looked at Diana and spoke, "Diana, you aren’t planning to secretly meet with Wayn Nolan while we’re away, are you?"

Diana’s expression froze. She stuttered, "Wha!... What are you talking about, brother?"

’As expected...’ Davis gave off a sigh and spoke, "Are you going to disappoint father and mother?"

Diana went tongue-tied but then her eyes started to turn moist, "I’m not..."

Davis proceeded to hold her little hands, "Look, Diana, if you like Wayn, it’s fine. Be bold and openly accept that you like him."

Diana nodded her head after a short moment of pause. She couldn’t help but hold her elder brother’s hand.

"That’s right, first be truthful to your own heart. Then, after you have grown up and confirmed your emotions for him, you can be with him. I will support you. Until then, you are only allowed to see him with some royal guards following behind your back."

Diana wiped her tears that were about to fall from her eyes as she nodded her head, "I will listen to brother’s words."

But then, she slightly hesitated and spoke, "But brother, he... He is cool... and handsome. I’m worried that some other woman will take him away... from me."

Davis simply asked, "Does he love you?"

Diana nodded her head hesitantly, "I think so..."

"Then have you confessed your feelings to him?"

Diana shook her head.

’So they haven’t even confirmed their love for each other and it is just in the process of budding, huh?’ Davis mused and spoke, "Diana, you’re a princess. If he can’t even wait and chooses another woman over you, is there a need to continue having feelings for him anymore?"

"If he can’t even wholeheartedly chase you, is there even a need to think about him anymore?"

Diana went stunned. She shook her head but then, she realized that her brother has a point.

But what if Wayn really left her for another woman and stayed loyal afterward just because she couldn’t get him first? Wouldn’t that be really sad?

She explained her doubts to her elder brother Davis.

Davis went tongue-tied as he had no answer to this question. Indeed, if that really happened, then wouldn’t he be the one who separated them in the name of being proper?

This was a paradoxical question and there was no right answer to love.

Unlike Clara, he could see that Diana had a high EQ. She even knew to a certain degree on how one’s emotions flowed.

Thinking for a bit, he sighed but then he spoke, "I truly have no answer to your question."

Diana became worried.

"That’s why it was said that all is fair in love and war. Stealing, deception, scheming, manipulating, plundering, betraying and many more, but all that is still despicable and something your brother absolutely detests." He said and stood up.

"In any case, all I’m saying is to be sure of what you’re doing before you leap into the unknown, do you understand? Davis asked but then said, "It’s fine if you don’t understand now, but I know you will eventually."

As expected, Diana nodded her head in confusion.

He took a few steps towards one of the doors and said, "I’m entering closed-door cultivation for a few days. If anyone asks, tell them not to disturb me during this time."

Opening the door, he entered inside and closed it.

Diana stood as she had a complex expression on her face. In truth, she didn’t consider much and enjoyed Wayn’s company a lot. His smile was heartwarming and she knew that he was righteous enough to stop her from doing any form of mischiefs.

But what her brother said also made her realize that what she imagined wouldn’t come to be true unless she entirely stopped meeting him

’In any case, my elder brother has indirectly approved of him. All I got to do is make sure that he stays loyal to me by visiting him with guards protecting me. As long as I do this, it can’t be considered that I have disappointed my parents, right?’ Diana inwardly formed a plan for her future. She liked him and wouldn’t give up easily!

Clara looked at her little sister as her eyes flashed, "Diana, don’t you dare disappoint brother either. He is always looking out for us."

Diana became meek in front of her strict elder sister but still opened her mouth, "Of course, that goes without saying."

Edward looked at his sister in utter disbelief. There was such a thing happening and he didn’t know one bit about it?

He couldn’t believe his ears. The conversation that underwent just now undoubtedly meant that his elder sister liked that brat from the Nolan Family known as Wayn.

’So that’s where she disappears to when sneaks out of the Royal Castle...’ He slowly understood, why at times she disappeared for no reason from the eyes of her guards from time to time.
