Divine Emperor of Death Chapter 421 Extravagance

Clara widened her eyes in panic as she took a step back, "Why?"

"It is too dangerous! We’ll come to pick you up when it’s time." Davis spoke as he gestured her to hand it over again.

He had failed to consider that those who passed the King Grade Trial and above had received the key to enter the independent spatial gateway. A month ago, he was reminded of that in Princess Shirley’s disappearance but now, he actually failed to connect it with Clara.

He couldn’t help but feel responsible and shudder at the fact that she would eventually come following them alone without any help!

Clara turned a little sad but then she took a step back again and tried to escape. The next instant, she froze as she felt soul force bind her, making her unable to escape.

"Clara, I’m being serious. Don’t make your elder brother be harsh on you." Davis solemnly expressed, "I am doing this because it is in your best interests that you remain here to cultivate."

Clara stayed silent for a few seconds. She hesitantly nodded a bit and then she felt the bind on her retracting away from her soul. She heaved a rather disappointed sigh and gave the item which looked like a token to Davis.

"Good girl..." Davis gave off a sigh of relief and inwardly thanked the heavens for her honesty.

Otherwise, he or his parents would’ve been never able to know that she had come to the First Layer by herself after they left. It would’ve been a disaster if the Tripartite Alliance captured her for her beauty, identity or even her talent!

He felt that Clara was just a little girl who didn’t know much about the world. Even though she could read other people and tell if they are truthful or not, it did nothing to people who only used violence to do their job.

Clara spoke in an aggrieved tone as she cast her pure yet cold eyes to Davis "When is the time then?"

Davis turned a little tongue-tied as he didn’t know what to answer.

"We’ll pick you up when my business with the Alstriem Family is over." Suddenly, Claire expressed.

Clara cast a gaze to her mother, "When is that?"

"I don’t know, maybe ten years... twenty years... or more but until that time, you are not allowed to take a step inside the First Layer!"

Clara’s eyes trembled, "Mother!!"

"But!" Claire raised her hand to stop Clara from getting rather uncontrollable, "If you can reach the Seventh Stage, then you can come to the First Layer alone with the help of Ice Phoenix Mistress. Just ask that esteemed immortal to hand over another token, after all, aren’t you her favorite candidate?"

Seventh Stage? Law Dominion Stage?

Clara took a deep breath as she breathed out. She then spoke, "Alright, I’ll do as you say, mother."

"Clara," Davis suddenly spoke, garnering her attention, "You still have to take care of your two siblings..."

"I know! It’s just... I don’t want to be left behind by you..."

Davis became stunned.

That was right! In the past, she had already told him that she would follow him wherever he went when she was a little girl who was trying to cultivate as soon as possible, even injuring herself in the process.

His heart sank a bit, feeling that he had been somewhat harsh on her even though he wasn’t in a sense as he was just trying to care about her well-being.

But sometimes, people think they’re protecting one’s well being when they forgot about their mental well-being.

"Fine, fine... I’ll come to pick you up in ten years even if we haven’t finished doing what we went there for, alright?"

Clara’s eyes turned a little jubilant as she nodded her head twice, displaying luster on her face.

Davis smiled upon seeing her turn animated. He didn’t want to leave his little sister who always kept a cold expression on her face in bad or uncomfortable terms.

"Alright, take care of yourselves from being taken advantage of." Logan suddenly spoke as he eyed Edward, Clara, and Diana. The gaze which he used landed on them, then landed for a while on Diana before it moved to Davis, "It’s time to leave."

Davis nodded seeing that his father didn’t have much to say, or maybe he had too much to say, so kept his silence.

He looked at the others as he saw them nodding in agreement. He instantly waved his hand.

A huge structure suddenly appeared in the sky blotting out the sun that cast its bright rays over them. It was a hundred meters tall and fifty meters wide, casting even a shadow over the entire Royal Castle, blotting out the sun.

It was like a grand dragon that appeared in the sky from nowhere. It seemed so because of the dragon patterns and designs that were etched on the huge object; the flying and portable abode!

Numerous people in the capital were alarmed as they cast their gaze to the Royal Castle, afraid that something had happened.

All of them, including the people who were on the roof of the Royal Castle, were simultaneously stunned, except for a single person. It was none other than Evelynn.

He had shown this structure to her before when they had been returning to the Loret Empire for their marriage, asking if they both should travel in this but the latter’s answer was simple, curbing him from using it at that time.

"I wish to spend more time with you before our marriage."

At that point, Davis could only shake his head at her adorable answer and lament that he could not bed her right at that moment.

Davis shook his head and spoke, "Earth Dragon’s Abode, a Peak-Level King Grade Artifact that serves as a portable structure. It has a defense that is capable of withstanding attacks from any Peak-Level Seventh Stage Cultivators while being armed with numerous offensive, defensive and supportive formations."

This was none other than one of the nine rewards he got from clearing the King Grade Trial!

Hearing Davis’s speech, all of them who were beside him were once again stunned into silence.

"It requires a High-Level Spirit Stones to function and operate properly." Davis smiled with a wry expression on his face.

All of their eyes bulged as they were shocked into disbelief. They were utterly flabbergasted by the huge artifact above them.

High-Level Spirit Stones? Didn’t that mean that it needed 1,000,000 Low-Level Spirit Stones to function to the lowest of its capacity?"

Logan inadvertently gulped when he imagined the scenarios where millions of spirit stones were digested into ashes by this enormous beast of an artifact.

Claire’s eyes twitched as she spoke to Davis, "Let’s not use it, we’ll travel by ourselves or use tamed magical beasts..."

Davis laughed, "Mother, don’t worry about it. Just go inside..."

There were numerous entrances on all four sides of the abode. One of them opened which was near to the park and facing them.

Claire’s eyes still twitched but inside her heart, she wanted to see what kind of a world existed inside the abode artifact. Her legs took a step forward but she moved back, afraid that she would cause her son to lose his few million spirit stones.

Suddenly, she felt her arm grasped by someone and when she turned to look at the figure, she was pulled towards the towering artifact.

"Logan, what are you doing?" Claire widened her eyes.

"Our son told you to not worry, so you shouldn’t worry. Just get on with it, and besides, you also want to see how it looks inside, no?" Logan smiled as his eyes glowed with a fanatical light.

Claire’s lips curved upon seeing her husband act stupid upon encountering a place to explore. She couldn’t help but remember how he had once done this when they were nothing but enemies.

The two of them flew as they entered the small opening in the abode, followed by Princess Isabella and Evelynn.

Davis smiled and cast his gaze over to his siblings and panned over their complex faces one last time, "Everyone, I’ll see you in a decade or so, goodbye!"
