Divine Emperor of Death

Clara was lying on the bed, her body lying almost motionless as her breathing seemed to be quite obscure.

Evelynn's expression was solemn. Once Davis spoke, she turned to look at him, her lips quivering.

This made Davis's heart clench.

However, he saw that her quivering was more of suppressing a burst of laughter rather than suppressing sadness.

He confusedly inclined his head at her, waiting to hear her words, but suddenly-

"Brother… lift me up…"

Clara raised her hands, her eyes fluttering as she looked around. However, she narrowed her eyes at Davis, appearing confused, before she pulled her hands back.

"Eh… you're not brother. Brother, where are you?"

She extended her bottom lip out like a baby would as though she was going to cry, but soon, her eyelids appeared to be heavy before she closed her eyes, her expression turning normal slowly.

"…"

All this made Davis dumbfounded. He turned to look at Evelynn again, hoping to get some real answers.

"Well, she's in a delirious state." Evelynn raised her hand and hid her smile, "It seems as though poisoning her soul and revitalizing it had also reverted her memories a bit back to her childhood, although it's more likely to be temporary."

"Yes," Tia agreed and gestured, "The three of our diagnoses all point to it being temporary since her soul is slowly revitalizing back, so there's no need to worry."

She pointed at Ellia, Myria, and herself, causing Myria to nod.

"Mhm~ Tia is right. I just came here and checked since these two were waiting outside my chamber, so there's nothing to worry about."

"…"

Davis didn't know if he should be worried about Clara or worried that everyone acted like he might flip the world if something happened to her, not that he could find fault with it.

He lightly chuckled, turning to look at his first wife.

"I see. So it's a great success then?"

"Yes!"

Evelynn flicked her sleeves, appearing prideful.

"You did it!"

But suddenly, she was lifted by Davis by the waist as he swung her around with much joy imprinted on his face, causing her to laugh lightly. After a few swings, he put her down and embraced her with warmth.

"You did it as you said you would. Truly a marvel…"

"Did you think I would fail?"

Evelynn smilingly asked as she threw her hands around him and hugged him tightly.

Davis kissed her cheek and shook his head, "No, this is technically a battle against the heavens, particularly, even more difficult than clearing a tribulation. I imagined even if you succeeded, the heavens wouldn't stay quiet."

From a small child, she had always been curious and perceptive and grew colder as she grew older, but then she never acted against him or the family of her own accord. Her Will was extraordinary for all he cared. After all, she did well to be able to block the influence of the heavens for this long and even reclaim herself back while in the midst of Divergents.

Nonetheless, it didn't take a genius to say that her sacrifice was large, considering that she also gave up the Ice Phoenix Immortal Inheritance.

Now, she was left with none, so he was worried her cultivation might take a hit.

"Brother…"

Suddenly, Clara called out.

Everyone's attention was grasped. It all fell on her figure, which seemed to be sitting up. She had one of her hands over her eyes, appearing to feel some pain, which made Davis instantly take a step toward her and near her.

"I'm here. Your brother is here, so don't worry…"

Davis caught her other hand and consoled her.

Upon taking his hand, Clara went silent. She slowly opened her eyes. Her pupils were still purple, the image of Davis reflecting as she saw him.

"Brother… looks like I'm still alive…"

Clara smiled lightly, causing Davis's eyes to widen.

Her memories had returned, and she was no longer confused!?

Not it became an absolute fact that the treatment had succeeded, causing him to rejoice.

'So this is what they meant by Evelynn succeeded…'

It was probably the same in another timeline he didn't know about if it weren't for Fallen Heaven. Nonetheless, he quickly came out of his reverie and asked.

"Clara, my little sister. How are you feeling? Is everything fine? Does your soul hurt?"

Clara's eyes narrowed as she heard Davis's innumerable questions. Her pale lips curled lightly in response, "Brother, everything is fine. Although I feel some ache in my soul, it is not anything serious. This is all thanks to sister-in-law Evelynn and Tia."

Evelynn and Tia smiled while Davis also nodded.

"They helped you, but now you have to aid yourself in your recovery. You need to tell me quickly if you feel anything else is wrong so that we can treat it earlier. Look into your soul much more carefully and feel the changes if it's not much for your health…"

Davis advised, causing Tia to purse her lips and close her eyes, seeming to make a serious diagnosis of herself.

Half a minute later, Clara opened her eyes, still sharp as ever.

"I don't hear that vague voice anymore, and I don't feel the slightest bit of malice towards you all."

She eyed Myria, Ellia, and Shirley before her gaze fell on him, appearing to be full of joy.

"Perfect!"

Davis slumped over the edge of the bed, his face filled with relief while Evelynn giggled.

"Don't worry, Clara. My treatment is influence-proof since I also sealed the influence that I can place on you. Now, your physique is yours alone, devoid of any influence, so you must work hard to improve from now on since you won't have heaven's aid anymore."

"Yes!"

Clara affirmatively replied.

Despite the treatment, she looked like she could start cultivating right now as she tried to get out of bed. The urge to catch up to all of them filled her heart since she had been suppressing her cultivation all this while!
