Divine Emperor of Death Chapter 758 A Group of Five

"Great grandfather, may I know for what reason have you called us? Is it for that strange plant lifeform’s projection caught in the Imagery Stone?" A man who stood along with the four of them asked.

He possessed a calm expression with a dignified demeanor, and his facial features made him look extremely handsome. He possessed a mustache and a small beard on his chin that made him look more mature. His blonde hair and flaming purple-colored pupils made him like a person of high and noble disposition.

He’s none other than the current Family Head, the Patriarch of the Alstreim Family, Eldric Alstreim!

Grand Elder Valdrey smilingly nodded his head at his grandson before his expression became solemn, "I will explain to you later about what the plant lifeform is, but what I called you all here is that you should all restrain yourselves for the upcoming years and not suppress talents or other relevant people with your statuses."

He then moved his gaze to another man, "Especially, Weiss, don’t bother with or suppress Edgar Alstreim anymore..."

The other man with a youthful face and demeanor blinked his eyes before he harrumphed, "That cripple from a mere branch family? I don’t even see him nowadays after his daughter ended up in the Forbidden Phoenix Realm, her status unknown, perhaps dead!"

These words were filled with disdain, but Weiss Alstreim still nodded his head. He is none other than the current Young Master of the Alstreim Family!

The Young Master and the candidate to the next Patriarch of the Alstreim Family, a High-Level Emperor Grade Power! His road towards ruling the Alstreim Family is already set in stone as long as he lives up to the standard of maintaining the cultivation and battle prowess of a Young Master.

Hence, within the family, wherever he went, people would instantly fawn on him while they completely lowered their stature.

"What happened?" Patriarch Eldric Alstreim creased his brows.

Grand Elder Valdrey Alstreim sighed, "Ancestor has given us his decree that all infighting and struggles within the family should stop as much as possible. Although this is a good thing, it affects our benefits, but nevertheless, we shouldn’t go against our Ancestor’s commands."

"Hmph!" The last of the four snorted.

It was a woman, but she wore the same robes as Grand Elder Valdrey Alstreim, indicating her status. She looked middle-aged and still retained a beautiful face. She wasn’t as beautiful as Nora Alstreim, but she wasn’t any less than a kingdom-toppling beauty, not to mention, she looked extraordinarily mature with her plump lips and big bosoms.

"Aiya! My daughter, you should heed this old man’s words for once..." Grand Elder Valdrey Alstreim chuckled as he said in a pleading tone.

Many believed that the main cause for the fall of the previous Young Master was him, but it wasn’t. It was his daughter, Grand Elder Elise Alstreim!

He was only responsible for pressuring the other Grand Elders to present within the family to not interfere with their ’benefits’.

Patriarch Eldric Alstreim had his brows furrowed, and the next moment he couldn’t help but smile when turning to look at Grand Elder Elise Alstreim.

"Mother, don’t you think we should follow our Ancestor’s words since we have no choice but to follow our Ancestor’s ’words’?"

Grand Elder Elise Alstreim furrowed her brows before a mocking smile emerged on her face, "Yes since we have no choice, I guess the only way left for us is to follow Ancestor’s words."

"Pfftt... Hahaha!"

The four of them laughed as they looked at each other, their expression having a hint of arrogance.

The five of them present were all people of different ages, with wide generation gaps separating them.

Grand Elder Valdrey Alstreim is the father of Grand Elder Elise Alstreim.

Grand Elder Elise Alstreim is the mother of Patriarch Eldric Alstreim, making him the grandson of Grand Elder Valdrey Alstreim.

As for the true talents of the younger generation...

Weiss Alstreim, he is the great-grandson of Patriarch Eldric Alstreim, making him three generations apart from the Patriarch.

As for Nora Alstreim, she is the great-great-granddaughter of Patriarch Eldric, making her four generations apart from the Patriarch.

This difference meant that she was six generations apart from Grand Elder Valdrey Alstreim, but even then, one can see how close these two were, with her coyly calling Grandpa instead of great-great-great-great-grandfather or just ancestor.

As for the servant woman who possessed a bland smile on her face as she stood by the side, she was none other than Grand Elder Valdrey Alstreim’s slave for all purposes, so they did not doubt that she would betray them.

"You all..." Grand Elder Valdrey Alstreim furrowed his brows, "You think I’m playing here?"

Noticing the Grand Elder Valdrey Alstreim’s solemn tone, the four of them became taken aback, becoming serious.

"The Ancestor pointed out that he will personally meet out punishment for those who disobey his decree if need be... You should all know that Ancestor Dian never interfered before as he secluded himself to become stronger and left the family matters to us, the Patriarch, Grand Elders, and Elders."

"Hmph, for someone who stayed back and never interfered in the past, that person should never interfere!" Grand Elder Elise Alstreim spoke with a snort, her expression carrying a bit of disdain.

Grand Elder Valdrey Alstreim’s expression changed, "You!"

At the same time, he sealed the room with his energy even though it was already protected and well soundproofed with Mid-Level Emperor Grade Formations.

However, would that work if the Ancestor were to be monitoring them?

Impossible!

Grand Elder Valdrey Alstreim became furious over his spoiled daughter! Even if it was a slip of the tongue, it was blasphemy to curse or even look down on the Ancestor!

After all, without the Ancestor, how could they have ruled this Territory?

They all momentarily became silent as an invisible pressure enveloped them. It was unknown if it were there delusion or reality, but they all felt that they were being monitored by the Ancestor suddenly.

A second...

Half a minute...

A minute passed before they all let out gasps of relief, their faces covered in a little bit of sweat.

Grand Elder Valdrey Alstreim had his eyes wide as he looked at them. During this minute, he calmed down and ensured that no presence was within the room with his own methods.

"You all have no idea how terrifying our Ancestor can be..." He slowly enunciated each word.

"Just a while ago, Ancestor ordered Havle Alstreim, who recently became an Elder to investigate and execute the current Ethren Emperor and cripple their ancestor for their crimes."

Ethren Empire’s Ancestor? That turtle-shell who is said to be at the end of his lifespan but possesses High-Level Law Sea Stage Cultivation?

This thought echoed in all their heads before they gasped.

As people in prominent positions, they knew the essential aspects of their Territory. Even Nora Alstreim knew about it, and her gasp was all the more evidence one needed to know that she knew who and how powerful the Ethren Empire’s Ancestor was...

These were people even they have to be aware of and be cautious since they could cause damage for the Alstreim Family if they decided to be reckless or perhaps, insane. One cannot easily provoke these kinds of characters!

After all, if they escaped, then the youths of their family who are out to temper themselves in this Territory could be easily slaughtered!
