Divine Emperor of Death

Inside the Nine-Treasured Immortal Ordeal Palace.

Most Essence Orbs had been long exhausted, so it was nothing more than empty training rooms, although Davis was planning to use the Essence Orbs he collected from the Astral Forgeheart Minor Realm to fuel the training formations.

Considering the grade of the Essence Orbs, they could allow the formations to run perpetually, perhaps for thousands of years, but he wanted a high-grade environment, so he was thinking of having Myria and Ellia somehow modify or upgrade these training formations.

Regardless, he had some plans for the remaining time until Candidacy.

Right now, he was refining thousands of soul essences of the assassins using Fallen Heaven. Most of them were Immortal King soul essences, while very few were at the Immortal Emperor Stage. Most of the comprehension clouds were above average, some high quality when it came to the comprehension of young geniuses or Grand Elders.

It made sense, considering these comprehensions were from the three of the Four Great Assassination Sects, not to mention it was systematized, which helped lower confusion amidst the insights received.

However, the funny thing was he didn't even know how many genius assassins he ended today.

Each of them would flap their mouth in front of him if they didn't know who he was, but today, he didn't even bother to see their faces as the moment he saw their silhouettes, they would be severed into pieces.

Who told them to target his father? If he let them run amok, they would continue targeting his family.

He didn't bother if they were assassins or cultivators with the highest bloodline. Anyone who touched his reverse scale was going to collectively pay the price. Following his example, Schleya also showed no mercy. That's what he liked about her.

The comprehension ranged from Blood Laws, Darkness Laws, Illusion Laws, Light Laws, Fire Laws, Ice Laws, Yin Laws, and Yang Laws to all sorts. He was having trouble dividing it in his soul sea, but as for Blood Laws Comprehension Clouds, he sent them all to Schleya while he absorbed Darkness Laws at the moment.

The heaven and earth energy squirmed around them, occasionally acknowledging their increase in Law Intents.

It wasn't long before they both reached the last intent for the Immortal King Stage.

For Schleya, her Blood Laws were already at Level Two Quiddity, so this round allowed her to reach Level Three Quiddity and cement herself in it well, even broadening her horizons over the myriad teachings of Blood Laws that she had never heard about.

Davis also comprehended Level Three Quiddity in Darkness Laws. He also reached Level One Quiddity in Illusion Laws and Level Two Quiddity in Light Laws, but unlike Schleya, he had yet to cement the insights and was confused over a few things that he couldn't obtain any answer from the insights he absorbed.

Nonetheless, his forehead was still stuck with Schleya's.

The unbelievable thing was— at some point, he seemed to have placed her on his lap for more comfort during comprehension so that they didn't strain their spines for a long time.

Their eyes opened together, unable to believe that they sat like this a day, but of course, only six hours passed, making it so that the world was approaching dawn.

Yet, their world was within each other's eyes. Their gazes were affixed to each other as though trying to see through their intents before Davis inclined his head, kissing her crimson lips.

The moment Schleya felt Davis's lips, she didn't react stiffly. Instead, like a sponge, she reciprocated, pressing her lips as the both of them partook in the sudden swelling of passionate feelings.

It would be a lie if they said that they didn't plan this from the time on the beach.

But none of that mattered as their hearts connected over the comprehension session as they sat together, making their hearts warm. With their lips connected and their hands constantly roaming to embrace, their hearts pounded.

But suddenly, Schleya jolted as she felt a spear hit her underneath.

"Mh~"

It radiated such warmth like yang wood that made her coo in his mouth

After a few minutes, Davis let her lips go and moved his head back a bit, looking at her beautiful face that melted while a bit of drool remained over the side of her lips. She was breathing a bit heavily, gasping for breath, which made him want to seek her more.

However, he wrapped his arm around her waist and hugged her closely.

"Schleya, I want you."

Schleya's gaze flickered with happiness, but her lips quivered, "Really?"

Her voice was unusually soft, making Davis's heart yearn.

"Hmm. I've had feelings for you for a long time. Do you remember during one of the banquets about what I said to you and Yotan?"

"…"

Schleya silently nodded her head before she turned her head and kissed the top of his ear.

"All that remains is for our feelings of affection to come to fruition as we share our emotions, bringing out love. I already know your answer, but I still want to hear it from your mouth."

Davis smiled as he looked straight at her face, "Will you accept me as your man?"

Schleya's eyes glistened as she bit her lips.

"Will someone like me suffice…?"

"Suffice…?" Davis's lips curled as he displayed a wry smile, "Will you dare accept this married man who has no time to look after his women?"

"I accept!" Schleya quickly embraced his head, pushing her bosoms against his face, "I… accept…"

Davis felt he was in heaven quickly as he was crushed between her bosoms.

However, he could sense numerous emotions from her apart from happiness. It was a relief. Perhaps at some point, she thought he might never look her way but was now relieved beyond compare because she got his word and confirmed their relationship.

He lifted his head and looked at her delighted expression.

"Such a difficult woman you are… Instead of wanting to join the Soul Reaper Legion or look after others, you should've just approached me from the beginning…"

Schleya's eyes narrowed, "What if- nmhm~"

Davis straightened his back, matching her level as he wrapped one arm around her waist and held her nape with the other, pulling her closer for a passionate kiss. Their lips joined once again, and Schleya's gaze melted.

"There's-"

"-no…"

"-what ifs…"

His passionate voice sounded inside her head.

It wasn't long before Davis lifted her up and walked her to a bed. He threw her on the bed, causing Schleya to bounce on the soft cushion while she remained gazing at the ceiling, although her gaze was blurry as she was extremely happy at the moment that tears couldn't help but remain in her eyes.

She could feel herself rapidly becoming naked as he removed her robe, cloth after cloth, before she was only left in her red, trapezoid-shaped innerwear that displayed her side proportions and similarly shaped underwear that hid her what most men sought the most.

Left half-naked, she couldn't help but feel shy as she hid her face.

However, Davis captured her wrists and placed them above her head using one hand, closing in on her face as he thoroughly roamed her body with his other hand, making her tremble with each area he invaded before his fingers finally made it to her cave, lightly rubbing which made her feel electrified as she gazed at him with a confused yet pleasured gaze.

"Leave everything to me, my Blood Demoness."

Before she could say anything, her lips were sealed with a hot kiss, and he continued to stir her lower lips, making her gaze melt again.
