Divine Emperor of Death Chapter 1099 Killing Intent Soars

A few people emerged beside Elder Zeno Alstreim, ready to unleash a killing blow if he tried to escape.

"It’s not over yet!" Davis reminded, seeing that the spark was going to be ignited into an explosion.

Everyone returned their gazes to the projection, including Grand Elder Valdrey Alstreim. However, he could no longer keep his cool as killing intent against his subordinate began to form in his eyes.

It was the same for Edgar Alstreim, who kept intensely trembling at the mention of Claire. He, too, didn’t interfere because he wanted to see what had happened to Claire, and he felt that he would finally come to know with this soul projection from Alchemist Davis.

Lia Alstreim held his hand from the side as she watched him worriedly.

[I assume you still have the Imagery Stone with you...]

[I still have it with me...]

At this moment, another projection appeared within the soul projection. The misty haze formed the image of a room, along with a majestic chair that looked like a throne of a ruler, and seated over it was a beauty that could cause the fall of a kingdom, her expression proud while her lips were widened into a curve, a smirk hanging on it.

Everyone became astonished to witness that it was Nora Alstreim, but they also simultaneously realized that it was nothing but an illusion from the previous conversation.

[Claire... The fact that you are watching this recording means that you received my parting gift.]

[Do you feel hopeless? Despairing? Anguished? Perhaps, deep pain in your soul?]

[Don’t resent me, okay? Time and time again, I treated you with respect, but since you don’t seem to know your place, I had no choice but to do this to you.]

[If you feel reluctant, why don’t you try to get back to the Alstreim Family again and take this matter to the Disciplinary Hall? However, without even a single piece of evidence, what can you do to me? What can you do against my family? As for revenge?]

[Are you even worthy?]

[Let’s not talk about that because first, you have to survive from those barbarians. Truth be told, I’m rather excited to see if you’re going to be killed or violated by one of them-]

"ZENO ALSTREIM!!!" Edgar Alstreim instantly rushed off like a madman as his strength abruptly exploded!

*Crack!~*

The sound of an object breaking echoed as martial energy and essence energy surged out of his body like a tide that changed into a tremendous might of burning crimson flames!

"Ahhhh!!! Die, bastard!!! Give me back my Claire!!!"

Everyone became shocked, unable to react!

Elder Zeno Alstreim’s eyes imperceptibly flashed with shock, but he did not choose to react to the attack. The burning flames befell on his kowtowing body as it engulfed him, making him roll around miserably in pain in mid-air.

"AhH!!!" He screamed in pain for a few seconds, bearing the brunt of the attack with his body before a few others arrived before him and extinguished the burning crimson flames with a wave of their hands.

Elder Havle Alstreim quickly apprehended Edgar Alstreim from going berserk. He urged him to calm down as he held him.

However, there were numerous eyes of disbelief cast at Edgar Alstreim, who seemed to be struggling in Elder Havle Alstreim’s grasp.

How!? How was it possible for the cripple to have regained his Essence Gathering Cultivation!? And that too back to his Peak-Level Law Manifestation Stage with prowess that was equivalent to able to take down opponents at the Mid-Level Law Dominion Stage?

But didn’t this mean that Edgar Alstreim didn’t even need to use his Essence Gathering Cultivation to take down Weiss Alstreim during the life and death battle? Was it even a life and death battle for Edgar Alstreim?

They weren’t able to initially notice Edgar Alstreim’s Essence Gathering Cultivation because it seemed to be sealed or concealed by an artifact that he wore, but now that they practically confirmed that he was reborn anew somehow, they couldn’t help but look at him in awe.

Perhaps, the new Young Master of the Alstreim Family has been irrevocably decided at this moment!

If there were arguments that Edgar Alstreim lacked the potential to become the Young Master because of his crippled dantian even though he became a Martial Master Stage Cultivator, then now, it was inevitable that he would be quickly reinstated as the Young Master!

Indeed, Edgar Alstreim did return back to his peak in Essence Gathering Cultivation in these two months.

Surprisingly, he just needed to get back the energy he lost before easily making a breakthrough. It wasn’t like a new or recovered dantian but a completely restored dantian that was just absolutely empty.

He quickly broke through bottlenecks and emerged as a Law Manifestation Cultivation in these two months and a few weeks. However, it took some time to plant the Law Seed again before manifesting a similar yet greater version of his Grand Law Manifestation during this time.

It could be said that he was just one step short of reaching the Superior Law Manifestation, but it was a pity that he was unable to manifest it even though his Fire Law comprehension was at Level Four Intent!

"AhhhH~!"

Edgar Alstreim’s eyes were moist as he looked at Zeno Alstreim with irrevocable hatred, his expression twisting into hideousness as he growled.

How could it be like this...?

What happened to his Claire at the Forsaken Phoenix Realm?

He didn’t want to dare think about it now but wanted to slaughter this bastard to death!

"Let me go!!! I’ll kill this bastard who schemed against my Claire with my own hands!!!"

However, Elder Havle Alstreim still held him down with his essence energy and soul force, "Calm down, Edgar! Don’t you want to know what happened to your first daughter Claire?"

Edgar Alstreim’s expression froze, and his struggles died down as his body became stiff. It took a few moments for him to retrieve himself before he looked at Elder Zeno Alstreim.

"What happened... to my Claire?"

Elder Zeno Alstreim looked miserable with burns over his face. It seemed as if he didn’t put up any defenses despite being able to easily cancel the attack with a wave of his hand. He kept a sorrowful expression as he opened his mouth.

"I don’t know..."

"What happened to Claire!?"

"I really don’t know... All I know is that she was trapped in the entrance to the Forsaken Phoenix Realm with her cultivation base sealed..."

"Cultivation base sealed...?" Edgar Alstreim’s expression severely trembled.

"It wasn’t me... It was Immeth Alstreim who sealed her cultivation base!" Elder Zeno Alstreim vehemently shook his head.

"Forgive me... I have erred in the past, and I won’t do it again!"

Edgar Alstreim’s lips trembled. He turned to look at Grand Elder Valdrey Alstreim.

"So you weren’t responsible for making my Claire disappear...?"

Grand Elder Valdrey Alstreim looked at Elder Zeno Alstreim with hatred as he uttered, "I believed this fool’s words and thought that Nora Alstreim was the one schemed against Claire Alstreim, and so, I inevitably moved to destroy her life tablet."

"Because of you, I don’t even know if my first daughter is dead or alive... I’m sure that you feel overjoyed over this?" Edgar Alstreim chuckled in derision.

Grand Elder Valdrey Alstreim’s expression froze before he lowered his head in shame. He was unable to even speak a few words as he felt humiliated. A deserving humiliation, to say the least. After all, he was unable to see through this trusted subordinate of his and harmed a genius from the family.

In truth, it couldn’t all be his fault as he didn’t know that Zeno Alstreim and Immeth Alstreim shared a father-daughter relationship. If he did, he would’ve looked into it more, and just by verifying it with Nora Alstreim, he could’ve confirmed, but he didn’t because he didn’t want to make things awkward between them.

After all, he had always treated her just like how Grand Elder Elise Alstreim treated Weiss Alstreim. However, because of that, it cost him heavily as it made him commit a fatal mistake of helping the enemy to remain hidden!

During this moment, Davis had paused the soul projection with a bit of concentration as he saw this was unavoidable. Once he saw that the situation calmed down a bit, he continued to execute it.

Everyone’s head swiveled to the soul projection.

[Nevertheless, I just heard this news from Grand Elder Valdrey Alstreim. That idiot was extremely happy that Nora Alstreim managed to obtain the favor of the Dragon Queen, earning the qualifications to become her subordinate.]

[What!?]

[She had just earned the qualifications, not the instant right to become a subordinate. Grand Elder Valdrey Alstreim said that it would take some months for her to return, so that would mean that she is being tested right now.]

[Before Nora Alstreim could become a true subordinate, your job is to make contact with Alchemist Davis and ’expose’ Nora Alstreim’s wrongdoings. This way, even the Dragon Queen would feel disgusted that she might instantly vilify her, or perhaps even slay her!]

[Remember, the other Elders and Grand Elders are already starting to get fidgety, trying to get their talented daughters or granddaughters to acquire the favor of Alchemist Davis. So if you let this chance slip by...]

[I assume you know what to do hereafter, so only contact me if you have anything important to say. Us being in contact is dangerous as it would raise many questions, but...]

[People would obliviously think we have an affair rather than a father-daughter relationship! Hahaha!]

Everyone’s lips twitched, but they coldly looked at Zeno Alstreim.

Grand Elder Valdrey Alstreim’s eyes were wide as it could be as he stared at the soul projection. He moved his gaze towards Elder Zeno Alstreim and took a step forward towards him with enormous killing intent emerging from his eyes.

Elder Zeno Alstreim’s lips heavily quivered as if he was sentenced to exile in a freezing atmosphere.

’Heh, that’s right!’ Davis coldly looked at Grand Elder Valdrey Alstreim, ’How can you refuse to kill him? I’ll make you kill him with your own two hands and make you learn the word known as regret for laying a hand on my mother’s family!’
