Divine Emperor of Death

"So you noticed..." The red-haired man smiled and kept the parchment that was engraved with the 'Seal' Symbol inside his spatial ring, "Indeed, I felt so sad when I saw such a beautiful woman as you being left alone by that bastard! Such a person doesn't deserve you. Hence, I wanted to console you but for that, I need your cultivation to be sealed first..."

"Shut up!" Evelynn became angered. 

How dare he say that her husband was a bastard!? She wanted to crush him but spontaneously realized the difference of strength between them as his undulations spread. 

She didn't attack, only considering how she should counterattack or escape. In such a time, she realized that she didn't even have a messaging talisman to contact her husband! 

The soul mark that also could lead her to him had also been undetectable, making her heart pound in nervousness.

"Why don't you open your eyes and see me?" The red-haired man spoke in a pleading tone.

Evelynn took a few deep breaths to calm herself down.

"Hmph, I don't want to! First of all, close your eyes and stop crying! Then scram and don't ever approach me again!" 

She knew that tears were cascading down his cheeks but it was as if the red-haired man paid no heed to it. 

He spread his hands as he inclined his chin and opened his mouth.

"Ah, such a pure soul... You want me to stop crying and I want you to do the same within your heart... Forget him and that would completely take away your sadness."

Evelynn bit her lips in anger, wondering who this nonsense spewing bastard was! She didn't know what she did in this world to experience this madness! 

"Now! Open your eyes and let the sadness make you realize your feelings within!"

The red-haired man unleashed a move! He waved his hands and fumes of smoke spread from both of his palms. The two fumes of smoke instantly turned into a blazing ball of fire and shot towards Evelynn.

Evelynn anticipated it and moved out of the way in an instant. The two fireballs struck the place where she stood at, creating a scorched crater on the ground as the vegetation instantly disappeared but the other fireball turned directions and followed her as if we a homing missile!

Evelynn knew she couldn't dodge this one, hence, she clenched her fists and inwardly chanted!

'Earth Dragon's Overbearing Fist!'

*Boom!~*

The fireball and the force of her fist collided, causing an explosion! The area below the explosion instantly turned red and became a scorched surface.

Evelynn's fist slightly burned and the result of the explosion sent her flying backward. She was forced to open her eyes and the resulting glow that filled her sight made her heart well up with immense sadness.

'Am I going to die?' 

She felt disheartened but instantly realized that her emotions were influenced again. She shut her eyes close and regained balance as she flipped over the ground.

"Open your eyes, and I won't attack..." The red-haired man's voice echoed as if he were sincerely pleading.

It was like the devil's whisper wanting to make Evelynn open her eyes.

"I'm surprised that you're only left with a slight burn. You know that I held back, right?"

Evelynn bit her lips in frustration and slowly opened her eyes. Even using every means available to her, she knew that a Sixth Stage Cultivator only needed to unleash a single powerful attack on her to instakill her.

There was an entire stage of difference between them.

Even if she had a drop Earth Dragon Blood Essence inside her still left undigested, she didn't want to take a chance and try enduring an attack for stubborn reasons.

Nevertheless, the moment she opened her eyes, immense sadness welled up within her again and in her life of sight was none other than the red-haired man who looked at if he was sincerely crying for her.

"He left you to die here, and that's the truth. If it weren't for the Saint Beast Stage Magical Beast not wanting to exit its cave, then you would have unquestionably died."

Tears started to emerge on her moist eyes as she thought about what he said. Her tears cascaded down simultaneously as Davis's stern silhouette flashed across her eyes.

"Shut up!" Evelynn grit her teeth despite the conflicting emotions taking form in her heart.

The red-haired man smilingly cried as he started to approach her. His mouth moved and let out a few words in a convincing tone, "I'm here for you. Let your sadness decide your actions..."

Evelynn's eyes turned bloodshot. 

The red-haired man neared her as he almost touched her cheek, but he froze as his scalp abruptly turned numb!

"Ahhhhh!!!!!"

Evelynn let out an angry roar as she sealed all her physical senses while even closing her eyes and placing her palms over her ears.

Her body looked as if it had exploded with a poof that released enormous amounts of green gaseous essence energy all over to her surroundings!

The green essence energy instantly spread to the surroundings and in a matter of a moment, it spread to a kilometer and started to expand but also contracted as if reached its limit.

The grass, plants, trees, and even the Magical Beasts that were watching the battle while being hidden started to show signs of their skin starting to soften.

They were all more or less letting out tears because of the phenomenon. They didn't close their eyes as they were used to it, hence, the next moment they realized that they were going to be harmed, the Magical Beasts tried to escape, however, the moment after they reached ten steps away from their initial location, all of them had their skins begin to peel off in an obnoxious manner.

The grass shook and disintegrated at a cellular level. The plants lost its vibrancy became a mushy, and sticky liquid, coating the surface of the mountain.

The trees had their bark peel off whereafter the wood inside, the trunk started to show signs of being melted.

Whether if it was the vegetation or the Magical Beasts, every living being in a one-kilometer radius started to dissolve as if acid was continuously being poured over them.

The Magical Beasts let out painful roars before it shortly turned into a low groan. Then in the next few seconds, their low groans disappeared altogether and even the vines that were causing the saddening glow because of the sunset, dissolved and turned into a sticky liquid.

Evelynn didn't open her eyes, afraid that the glow will make her feel extremely grievous again. However, even when feeling grievous, she was still sane. Her mind which was active quickly formulated a plan and enacted it.

She felt that she had to bring the red-haired man closer as much as possible, hence, she unhesitatingly made herself look weak! She knew that she had only a single chance to effectively use the poison, hence, she didn't hesitate to make herself the bait!

Nevertheless, she didn't know what was happening right now as she really sealed her senses. She didn't know that the vines had already dissolved, making the phenomenon disappear in the one-kilometer region.

A few seconds later, she no longer sealed her physical sense and let it listen to feel the aftermath.

The result left her mind reeling in shock!

She felt her surroundings become eerily silent and its outline becoming simple and shallow as if the vegetation or the towering trees never existed in the first place!
