Divine Emperor of Death

Chapter 680 Talking Is Useless...

Here, there were numerous people whom Davis didn’t recognize but there were also a few people whom he recognized...

The First Prince, Hadre Ethren, and the Third Prince, Alexi Ethren...

Other than them, he recognized the Emperor of the Ethren Empire, Kaiser Ethren.

Emperor Kaiser Ethren seemed to be looking at Davis with an unrelenting gaze. It could be seen that he somewhat blamed the Conferred Queen for his second son’s death.

Nevertheless, power always talks.

Just his presence alone left the others unable to keep looking at him for a long time, hence, even the Emperor took his gaze off him.

Emperor Kaiser Ethren then looked at a person who seemed to be in the possession of temporary glory, "It seems that senior has accepted the invitation..."

With a deep glint in his round eyes, that person looked at Davis, averting his gaze from the soul body who was no longer the mysterious shadowy man.

He had a long black beard and an admirable posture with his two hands behind his back, exuding the aura of an expert. The alchemist robe he wore possessed eight stars with the eighth star being dull when compared with the previously present seven bright glowing stars.

A Low-Level Emperor Grade Alchemist! The Grand Elder of the Thousand Pill Branch!

’A Pill King...’ Davis inwardly mused.

Pill Kings were recognized and revered alchemists who were able to make pills useful for Eighth Stage Experts. Cultivators usually didn’t dare to offend them as they would have to rely on revered alchemists like him to improve their cultivation or for many other purposes.

"You are?" The Grand Elder asked with an amiable smile on his face. His voice sounded deep whilst still having the face of a middle-aged man.

Davis didn’t clasp his hands but just spoke, "Someone who can subdue the person whom you failed to..."

"Big words..." The Grand Elder chuckled before letting out a snort, his round eyes becoming sharp, "I would’ve long subdued him but that would make this soul dissipate! You are of the same Soul Forging Cultivation as me who is from the Thousand Pill Palace!"

"Childish..." Davis shook his head, "Citing the name of the background to make yourself look grand when you’re nothing but an outer elder who is not in the headquarters of the Thousand Pill Palace..."

"You!!"

The Grand Elder’s expression changed. His face became slightly red. Indeed, he had reached his potential in Alchemy or so deemed by the Thousand Pill Palace when he reached the age of five thousand years old.

He had then been sent to look after the various branches located all over the numerous territories, spending another three thousand years in various branches before coming here just a few hundred years ago.

Just a few thousand years ago, he had looked old; tremendously old.

Only after having a breakthrough to the Martial Master Stage Cultivation did he at least manage to look youthful.

Just when he was about to berate with a counter statement, he got interrupted.

"Talking is useless..."

Davis walked towards the suppressed soul in the middle of the experts, looking at the miserable figure which looked as if it were about to dissipate anytime.

The soul body looked at him with trepidation but it also had a creepy smile over its face as if telling that he could try all he wanted but would never open his mouth even if he were to be tortured to death.

Davis extended his hand and pointed his finger as he echoed in a deep voice, "Let our feats show who we are..."

A streak of light with symbols instantly shot towards the front in a blinding speed and disappeared into the soul body. At the same time, the soul body widened his eyes before his eyelids dropped.

The soul body of the prisoner looked as if he lost his soul; his will.

And the experts here were well versed in making people their slaves, hence they could recognize the soul body had fallen to the mysterious expert’s grasp!

Whispers and echoes of awe reverberated around the area as they instantly became deeply impressed by the mysterious expert. His words and posture made them excited as they almost turned into blind fans.

’Absolute dominance!?’ The Grand Elder almost flinched but he didn’t dare to believe what he had seen.

There were many slave seal types that could be cast as techniques but he had never seen this one before, but just heard about it in the past.

He vaguely felt this technique this mysterious expert cast was one of taking most of their will, making them not even able to retaliate or hold negative thoughts about their master.

Even then, he still kept hoping that this mysterious expert had just failed. He wanted to see the soul dissipate but even after some time, the soul body stayed staring within the void, its eyes lifeless.

Davis lowered his hand and his voice echoed, "What is your name?"

"Algos Yantra..." A dull voice echoed.

The Grand Elder’s expression changed. He suddenly felt gazes fall on him, vaguely mocking him for his uselessness!

He cast a wide-eyed look at Emperor Kaiser Ethren before leaving the area with an unamused expression on his face. He didn’t want here to stay any longer and digest the humiliation.

He even slightly felt better that he was interrupted, making him not speak much! If he did, he would’ve become a the hilarious comedian for today which he wouldn’t be able to wash himself off.

Emperor Kaiser Ethren didn’t even know what to say. He didn’t want to offend the Conferred Queen’s protector who seemed extremely strong, so he didn’t go out of his way to even voice out fake support for the Grand Elder.

’It was only a loss of face for the Grand Elder? Why do I need to stick up to him when he is clearly weaker than the mysterious expert?’ He thought as a sneer almost emerged on his face.

That said, he became serious. He needed to know why his second son died! Even going as far as to self-destruct!

He knew that his second son was no such pure soul who would resort to sacrificing his own life to exchange for the safety of others, not even for him but that was precisely why he preferred his second son over any other son in terms of temperament!

He cast a look at the mysterious expert and deeply bowed, "Senior, may I ask a few questions?"

Davis turned to look at Emperor Kaiser Ethren. He didn’t know what type of person the other party was, so he just blatantly shook his head.

Emperor Kaiser Ethren’s expression changed as it almost became ugly but the next words he heard made him smile.

"I will be the one questioning this first since this slave dared to investigate my Young Mistress!"

Emperor Kaiser Ethren almost experienced a chill on his back as he felt the anger in the mysterious expert’s tone. He just smiled like a fool and answered, "Of course..."

The Royal Protectors all had dissatisfied expressions on their faces but they didn’t express their discontent openly.

This was their territory!

Usually, they were the ones who were above, condescendingly looking down at the masses but this time, they were the ones being looked down upon.

As people who enjoyed vanity, authority and face, they didn’t want to back off that quickly but since their Emperor had acquiesced otherwise, they didn’t dare to open their mouths either.

Davis thought of knowing about this new slave’s background, so he was just about to ask when suddenly a disturbance appeared in the distance as undulations flared, just at the entrance of the third level.
