Divine Emperor of Death

Chapter 495 Ones Clothes Equals Ones Status

Seeing their reactions, Princess Isabella chuckled, "I have enmity with the Family Head of the Arashi Family. Crown Prince Davis, you know that I already killed one of his sons, right?"

Davis nodded his head in recognition.

’So the problem stemmed from their father, not the son who was killed in the Magical Beast Territory; Tyrannical Blue Ape Mountain Range by her?’

Davis instantly understood what help kind of help she needed from him.

"So you need my help to covertly enter the Arashi Family’s residence?"

Princess Isabella nodded her head. Her eyes which were clear suddenly glazed. She extended her hands before she brought her palms close to each other, "He was this close to making me his Soul Slave."

Davis and Evelynn were once again shocked.

’So that is the reason why she wanted to kill a family head level existence?’

Princess Isabella’s eyes which were glazed instantly became clear, except, it was filled with hatred.

"If it weren’t my cautious attitude, influencing me to sacrifice a diluted drop of Earth Dragon Immortal Blood Essence in order to curb his soul force from planting a slave seal on my soul, I would’ve already become a slave."

Princess Isabella spat out this hateful thought that had been in her heart.

However, Davis had his doubts but not on the potency of the diluted blood essence.

Even though the blood essence was just a diluted drop, it still belonged to an Immortal Entity; an Earth Dragon which could trample Ninth Stage Cultivators into meat paste.

Burning it should’ve given enough potential to kill Sixth or Seventh Stage Cultivators... However, from Princess Isabella’s words, it seemed like she burned the diluted drop of blood essence to defend, making her own weak soul devoid of vulnerability for the period of time she was attacked by the Arashi Family Head.

Even though it is diluted, the blood essence would’ve certainly frightened the Family Head with a defensive cry, targeted at the soul.

"Then why didn’t the Arashi Family Head’s son stay clear of you since they know that you’re not a person to be trifled with?" Davis casually posed his doubts.

Princess Isabella shook her head, "After I curbed the Family Head’s Soul Force using the diluted drop of Earth Dragon Immortal Blood Essence, I believe that he no longer had the courage and ran away to his home to hide in seclusion."

"At that time, I was staying in Arashi’s Luxurious Inn, and because the Arashi Family Head went into seclusion, the Family Head’s son didn’t know about this matter at all."

"However, as the saying went, father like son, many matters happened and the latter couldn’t help but court death by acting pompous and high above me."

"Even so, I curbed my anger and only insulted but who would’ve thought he would try to hunt me down, inviting disaster to himself."

Princess Isabella laughed with an ironic smile on her face.

Davis nodded his head in understanding.

There were rumors at that time about Arashi Family Head training in seclusion when he was here in the past as Alchemist Scythe.

Now that he understood, it all dawned on him.

’It was no wonder that the Arashi Family Head would be so scared that he would scram to his home to hide in the name of seclusion.’

He felt that the Arashi Family Head had likely underestimated Princess Isabella at that time while lusting over her and paid the price by not being cautious enough to guard his soul.

’His soul should be injured greatly...’ Davis guessed and nodded his head, "Sure! I’m willing to help."

Princess Isabella’s expression finally relaxed. Currently, she had the ability to kill Arashi Family Head but she wanted to do it covertly so as to not be discovered by the Tripartite Alliance.

Initially, she had not thought of exacting revenge anytime sooner but since she was here at the Royal Xuan Capital City, then she decided that she might as well as clear the debt of enmity.

"However, you would have to wait for a period of time since I want to help Daniuis recover. I want to find the necessary King Grade Medicinal Pill for him to heal."

Princess Isabella didn’t even hesitate, "No problem, I can wait."

"Alright, while I go out to procure the medicinal pill. Meanwhile, I want you to protect them all." Davis shot a look towards Evelynn and gestured a circle with his hand.

"That’s our initial deal..."

Princess Isabella lifted a brow up at him.

Realizing her meaning, Davis inwardly felt embarrassed.

"My apologizes, I haven’t had the time to teach you Soul Forging Cultivation."

"I can see that, however, I also believe that you make it up to me in the future."

Davis and Princess Isabella both amiably smiled while their eyes gazed at each other. A moment of silence became apparent when neither of them spoke, just gazing at each other’s eyes.

*Cough!~*

At this time, Evelynn slightly coughed and acted as if she was going to say something as their attentions were shifted to her.

Nevertheless, she didn’t say anything thinking that they would go back to discuss.

However, they still had their eyes on her, making her fidgety, but she forcefully smiled, "What? It was just a cough."

Davis and Princess Isabella both turned speechless.

’Even if you were going to interrupt us, you don’t need to be so bad at it...’

Davis and Princess Isabella both inwardly laughed.

Princess Isabella heaved a sigh and looked at Davis as she stood up, "I’ll be taking my leave then..."

Davis just nodded his head and saw Princess Isabella’s back with his eyes which he then quickly avoided as his gaze shot towards Evelynn. Once he felt her leave the room as Princess Isabella closed the door, he couldn’t help but ask.

"What was that just now?"

Evelynn gave a cute snort before turning away her head.

======

Once they settled down at the residence, Davis rested for that day.

The next day, he left the residence after informing Evelynn and his parents, walking towards the direction of the Thousand Pills Association.

On the way, he decided to act like a respectable person, so he thought of hiring a carriage that catered to one’s status but felt it to be a drag.

He instantly abandoned the thought and walked through the streets as he watched the people leading on with their daily lives.

Most of them wore common clothes but since this was a well off district, there were many people who wore luxurious clothes as well.

The difference between luxurious and poor changed from one place to another, just like the gap between a person’s cultivation difference.

Even though the people here wore Earth Grade clothes, they were still considered common whereas, in some towns, the Earth Grade Clothes could be considered luxurious.

In the Royal Xuan City, only clothes made using Sky Grade Materials can be considered luxurious!

As for those who wore King Grade Clothes in the Royal Xuan City, they could be considered extravagant, rich and pompous, people of status who were in the extreme minority!

However, silk, leather and other clothing materials from different magical beasts and plants were always in demand, letting the price of different graded materials always fluctuate.

For example, Davis’s Alchemist Robe was woven with silk from the Fifth Stage Amethyst Silk Worm. This material alone could cost several Low-Level Spirit Stones depending upon the demand.

The designs that were embroidered with additional special materials durable enough to stop a normal stab from a Fourth Stage Expert.

Like this, there were many clothes, using different materials, especially armors which provide an even more secure solution for defense. However, people only usually wear inner armor, like a vest.

Only people who were in the army and those who preferred external armor wore external armor to look majestic!

In short, people spend a lot of wealth to just maintain their status while disregarding the defensive capability of the clothes!
