Divine Emperor of Death

Chapter 711 Garvin Wollers Letter

Davis smiled in assurance. In any case, even if Alexi Ethren possessed an enormous yet devious plot in his mind, he didn’t mind letting a snake play around his home since he can just kill it with a thought.

Although, would the snake dare to misbehave in the presence of the Conferred Queen Protector’s presence?

Alexi Ethren didn’t know that the Conferred Queen Protector’s presence was fake, and that essentially put a lock to any suspicious action he might take and since his mother was here, Davis believed that he wouldn’t go far as to do something stupid.

He chuckled, "People say that a son’s first love is his mother and a daughter’s first love is her father. You don’t need to be ashamed since you didn’t know that your master is your mother..."

Alexi Ethren became taken aback before he awkwardly laughed, "I didn’t expect you to console me..."

He suddenly felt that Alchemist Davis was not a bad man and felt that Natalya had indeed ended up with a genuine man who might care for her until she dies a natural death. He just felt happy for her, mostly happy for his subordinate, Agis Stirlander since it seems that he had his daughter engaged to a person belonging to a powerful background.

"Heh..." Davis smirked, "That said, isn’t it taboo to intimately engage in a master-disciple relationship?"

Alexi Ethren looked as if someone stepped on his tail. His expression changed as his cheeks blushed from embarrassment and shame!

His lips quivered before he opened his mouth, "That’s unacceptable! Who in the heavens decided that intimacy in master-disciple relationships is taboo!? You should know that in the Dual Lotus Manor Territory, master and disciples enjoy sexual intimacy!"

Davis just chuckled at his tantrum but he agreed with his point.

Indeed, different places had different cultures and laws. He wouldn’t be surprised if he found one that allowed incest, sexual intimacy between children, siblings, and parents...

But he sure would be disgusted...

Alexi Ethren came out of his embarrassment and narrowed his eyes as he felt that he was forgetting something.

After a few moments of constricting silence, he remembered that he had seen three letters in the so-called ancestor’s spatial ring but prioritized the medicinal pill that he had searched over them because of the urgency of the matter.

He lifted his finger and accessed one of the three spatial rings in his hand, the most prominent one, radiating a mysterious feeling.

The Low-Level Emperor Grade Spatial Ring.

Alexi Ethren gasped as he had never seen an Emperor Grade Spatial Ring before... but now that he recognized that he actually wore one, he became taken aback and was in disbelief over the fact that he and his mother had such an ancestor.

There was another Ancestor for him, the Ancestor of the Ethren Empire who didn’t show up after all this happened. Thinking about it now, he couldn’t help but believe that the rumor that the Ancestor was near the end of his lifespan and was almost about to die.

It was spreading within the confines of the Royal Protectors and the maids who served them, so he couldn’t help but think that Ancestor, perhaps, died.

Shaking his head, he then sent his soul sense inside the spatial ring and scoured the empty space with a large capacity that made his eyes go wide! However, he became scared to see the number of resources deposited in the spatial ring!

He shuddered as he realized that he held such resources that allowed him to perhaps, enter the Ninth Stage in the future! He was in absolute disbelief at this fact and in reaction, he suddenly retracted his soul sense and stared at Davis in disbelief!

’All this... all this... he gave it just because of that so-called ancestor’s words?’

He couldn’t believe that such a person existed.

Davis blinked at Alexi Ethren’s gawking expression.

He had the spatial ring all this while but was unable to use it since he was forbidden by Old Man Garvin to not bound it to himself, or else, he would be violating the terms imposed in the Blood Soul Contract, which would result in a backlash that has the power to claim his life.

Alexi Ethren calmed down in a few seconds.

Sending his senses into it again, he saw three letters that were arranged in order, with numbers indicating its order.

He saw the first letter and took it out.

[

To the one who receives this favor, use your blood to open the sealed envelope.

]

Looking at these words, Alexi Ethren momentarily looked at Davis, waiting for his prompt but then realized that there was no need to consult. He slit open his finger with his nail and condensed a drop of blood and flicked it towards the envelope.

As if reacting to the blood, the envelope’s seal gave off a bright glow before it disintegrated into ashes but even the ashes disappeared.

Alexi Ethren wondered what kind of seal this was and so did Davis but the latter was able to arrive at an answer.

’Spirit formation...’ Davis narrowed his eyes as he recognized Old Man Garvin’s soul force undulations. The seal on the envelope wasn’t a complete physical seal but a spirit sealing formation that materialized into a token that sealed the envelope.

Upon reacting to his descendant’s blood, the seal broke!

While Davis was pondering that he had to step up his game and make time to learn those Spirit Formation skills left by Old Man Garvin to him, Alexi Ethren opened the letter and read.

[

Precious descendant of mine, I am Garvin Woller!

The Supreme Soul King of Emperor Sword Sect and your ancestor!

First of all, the fact that you’re reading this letter means that the young lad I tasked with has finally handed over the spatial ring to you; my descendant!

I instructed him to give it one of my main branch descendants but it doesn’t matter if the main branch descendant or a side branch descendant who gets the spatial ring...

What’s important is to support the Woller Family and make sure it at least gives birth to a Soul King within the next ten centuries. Inside the spatial ring is the Inheritance I received from a near High-Level Emperor Grade Inheritance of a Soul Emperor.

There is a plethora of other aid you shall receive by owning this spatial ring, hence, you would see to it that our family doesn’t fall even if it encounters calamities and disasters.

Long lines of text were written by his so-called ancestor.

Alexi Ethren’s eyes twitched in glee as he read. He didn’t know who this man was but the contents in the spatial ring told him that this so-called ancestor should be really a Soul King!

It wasn’t as if he didn’t realize the implications of a Soul King!

He had heard legends about them. Soul Kings were only second to existences at the Ninth Stage but it could also conversely mean that a Soul King could also be a Ninth Stage Powerhouse.

However, from the letter, it became clear to him that this ancestor of his never entered the Ninth Stage.

The contents of the letter further explained Garvin Woller’s life from his rise to being schemed against to entirely entrusting the future of his descendants to a young lad extremely skilled in Soul Forging Cultivation.

Furthermore, you should thank the benefactor by handing over the second letter to him. He is my disciple in a sense even though he brought up conditions like that he wouldn’t call me teacher or master...

The benefactor might hand you over small parchments in the future, so aid him accordingly.

Also, remember to provide assistance to your greatest benefactor when required. Although I entrusted you to take care and make the Woller Family prosper, he is not alone in getting revenge for our family.

Lastly, make sure to not fall for schemes like the foolish me!

~ Garvin Woller

Alexi Ethren had a blank expression on his face. Reading all this history of his unverified ancestor left him with a sense of disbelief and had his mind revolve around skepticism.

Was he supposed to feel angry at the fact that his ancestor was schemed against, made to hide like a dog in dire straits? Even if this man, Garvin Woller really was his ancestor, he only felt disconnected from such a distant existence.

His concern, care, and love solely lay within his mother and master, but they were both the same person.
