Divine Emperor of Death Chapter 783 Archaic

Princess Isabella dressed in purple robes came into Davis’s view, and along with her purple hair that cascaded down till her waist, she looked like a lavender flower-fairy.

Davis smiled at her beautiful countenance and activated his seamless Heart Intent to check if he could feel her emotions, and he was able to sense it without fail! He sensed elation, some guilt but mostly expectation from Princess Isabella as he saw her smile at him charmingly.

She didn’t say anything and sensing her emotions and the change in her cultivation level, he grinned, "Congratulations on breaking through to the Mid-Level Young Soul Stage."

Instantly, he sensed gratification and happiness from her while he looked at her smile widely.

"Come inside!" Princess Isabella gracefully and happily echoed, not bothering to hide her emotions as she once did.

Davis nodded and headed inside the residence.

There was no doubt with the Heart Intent, as long as he could see through what the others were thinking by relating with the emotions he sensed, he could basically cheat people with the appropriate sentences.

Just like saying one would want to hear. It was near mind-reading.

Such is the wonder of Heart Intent, or so he mused since he didn’t know dogshit about Heart Intent if it had any other uses. He could only search for the records from Alstreim Family or search the Ethren Empire’s Imperial Library to learn more.

She didn’t stop and headed straight to her bedchambers.

Davis, who was following her, suddenly spoke, "Isabella..."

"Mhm?" She turned her head and glanced at him, but she didn’t stop walking.

"When is the next opening of the Earth Dragon Immortal’s Inheritance?"

Princess Isabella abruptly stopped in the hallway. It was a narrow corridor, and it wasn’t brightened up with lampshades, so it was relatively dark.

Davis didn’t know if it was his misperception or not, but he certainly felt a tremble in her emotions. It was too suppressed for him to understand what it was, but he certainly felt that it wasn’t anything good.

"Did I say something wrong?" He couldn’t help ask.

Princess Isabella instantly came out of her reverie and shook her head as if nothing happened, "The Earth Dragon Immortal gave me fifteen years time..."

"Oh... That’s good. Only five years have passed from the last trial. There are still ten years..." Davis nodded his head but became suspicious.

Why was there a need to feel negatively like that at the moment? He really wouldn’t have discovered her abnormality if he hadn’t comprehended Heart Intent.

Princess Isabella continued to walk while he followed.

"Is there something bothering you?" He asked again.

Princess Isabella slowed down a bit, but she didn’t stop or turn to look around, "It’s just that... The sooner I go participate in the Immortal Grade Trial, the easier it would be for me to clear it... The Earth Dragon Immortal additionally instructed me to return as soon as I reach the Eighth Stage in Body Tempering Cultivation, Martial Sage Stage."

"The Earth Dragon Immortal said that it would allow me to enter as soon as I stand before the entrance to the inheritance."

"I see..." Davis understood it.

Age and body tempering cultivation base determines the difficulty in the Earth Dragon’s Immortal Inheritance.

He had personally experienced it and even passed the Immortal Grade Trial, but was barred from inheriting the entire Inheritance due to his soul’s abnormality. His soul was actually older than his bone age, and it was found out by the Earth Dragon Immortal.

It had to do with the vague fact that he didn’t reincarnate but crossed directly to his next incarnation; his next life.

However, why was there a need for Princess Isabella to feel negative about this?

’Could it be...’

"Isabella, are you really upholding the words you said that that time!? That you won’t cultivate your Body Tempering Cultivation until I catch up to your body tempering cultivation base!?"

"Is that why you increased your Soul Forging Cultivation instead?" Davis watched her back with a complicated expression on his face.

Could it be that she was really planning on upholding those words she uttered when she saw him absorbing Derelict Extinction Lightning into his soul sea, afraid that it would harm him!?

Both of them stopped again.

Davis watched her turn to look at him with a smile on her face.

"Of course... You thought that I was saying that for just convincing you? I will never go back on my words..."

Davis became stunned, "Are you insane!?"

Princess Isabella gestured with her finger as if drawing on the air.

"In any case, there’s still ten years left... I garner that I would only need five or six years to break into the Eighth Stage if everything proceeded smoothly."

"So don’t waste time and quickly reach my level in a few years... I’m waiting for you, okay~?" She clenched her fists and smiled encouragingly at him.

Davis didn’t know what to say as stood there as if he was frozen. He blinked at her expression for some time as words tried to come out of his mouth but couldn’t.

He abruptly moved and just embraced her in the narrow pathway, feeling her emotions sweep through him.

It was real...

Her encouragement, expectation, determination, and love for him were all real!

Davis’s eyes flashed as he felt moved, however...

He didn’t know why there was a need to feel insecure when he held her right now!

He moved his head back and held her shoulders, "Isabella, are you hiding something from me?"

Princess Isabella became stunned. She abruptly tried to move back, but she was held in place by his strong arms, and at the same time, she discovered his cultivation.

"Davis, you reached the Martial Master Stage!?"

Davis felt confusion, elation, and happiness from her, but he creased his brows in response, "Yes, but it doesn’t matter right now..."

"Isabella, are you feeling unsure about me? About being with me?" Davis asked with a confused expression on his face.

He didn’t mince his words but was unable to understand her insecurity.

All that time he spent with her was real. All that time he spent being intimate with her was all etched in his heart. There was no way he would forget her!

Their relationship was strong and was sailing smoothly, even deciding the time of marriage.

Then why was there a need to feel insecure?

Could it be that their intimate relationship was his own imagination?

Davis felt betrayed, and a little angry as his eyes trembled.

Princess Isabella became taken aback again before she shook her head, "N-No... That..."

Trembling...

Davis noticed that her emotions became chaotic for him to even sense her emotions accurately. In fact, it was so overwhelming that he had to stop using Heart Intent to not be influenced by her emotions.

He took a deep breath before letting her go from his grasp.

"It’s fine if you don’t want to tell me why you’re feeling insecure..."

"I love you, stupid woman..." Davis possessed a solemn expression on his face, "I’ll eventually make you feel secure through my actions..."

Princess Isabella’s eyes shook as she bit her bottom lip before she shook her head. She closed her eyes and lowered her head as she clenched her fists.

Her lips increasingly quivered as she couldn’t take this feeling anymore.

"The Earth Dragon Immortal once mentioned that you are a person whose soul is ’archaic’..."
