Divine Emperor of Death Chapter 2368 Minn Family

Chapter 2368 Minn Family

"Of course."

Davis instantly took out two hundred immortal crystals as he pushed them to the guards.

One of the guards unceremoniously pocketed a hundred immortal crystals and chuckled, leaving the remaining hundred immortal crystals, which were the fees required for visitors to enter.

"I can see that your aptitude is high. Don’t worry. You won’t fail!" That guard patted Davis’s shoulder, causing him to also chuckle.

"Hehe. Many thanks."

Thereafter, he gained entry into the Minn Family, but he could sense many gazes on him, one even brazenly brushing past him. However, it never came back because it failed to find anything suspicious about him.

After all, he really wasn’t suspicious of his ability to disguise himself. It was his life energy growing his mustache and beard, which made it natural, while his hair was simply dyed by his martial energy’s cladding on him like armor which isn’t suspicious at all considering many people use martial energy to protect their hairline and scalp from getting dirty or weakening.

Moreover, he was a Ninth Stage Cultivator. Who was going to get strangely suspicious of him when he openly entered?

Still, the act of brazen soul sense scan was truly hateful, making him angered, but if he reacted to it, that would be the very cause of suspicion since he would normally be unable to pick it up. From this, he could also tell that this soul sense scan may very well be a probe.

After all, he heard that the Minn Family was a neutral path family, a power that focuses on self-interests and not the good or bad, although it was inclined towards good.

Davis liked this kind of stance. However, with their heir committing vile acts, perhaps being supported and indulged by the higher-ups wasn’t giving him any good impression on them. No matter the day and age, no matter where he went, the higher-ups, perhaps, were most likely corrupt.

Nonetheless, entering the gates, he first had to walk to a mountain hill before he finally saw the town located on the lush verdant hilltops, causing him to blink over the marvelousness of the scenery. It truly caused the previous slights by the Minn Family that angered him to lessen. His brows also frowned ever so lightly as he found children playing around in the fields.

These white-haired people were truly living in a peaceful world, seemingly having little restriction towards their family members. The heaven and earth energy were also dense here, so when he saw the thatched huts on the cliffside, he wasn’t surprised to see cultivators practicing cultivation here. Magical beasts also flourished, playing around like pets instead of baring their claws or acting aggressively at normal.

This was a new yet pleasant sight he had yet to see, causing him to wonder if his target was really from here.

If so...

’It really is a pity...’

Davis located a few floating palaces in the distance.

Within these hilltops, for only a few floating palaces to be located, it obviously said that it hosted higher-ups of the Minn Family and, possibly, also their heir.

Nonetheless, he didn’t directly go there.

First, he went to an inn nearby and booked a room for three days and three nights.

He asked the inn owner the location of Immortal Alchemist Shaiya Minn and received it, leaving a trace of where he was and where he was going. The inn owner also gave him a few instructions that he needed to follow while being here, which made him clasp his hands in greeting.

"Many thanks."

Secondly, he arrived at the Alchemist Department of the Minn Family, the stipulated location where Shaiya Minn would be present, and took the Emperor Grade Alchemy Examination. Not only did he display his ’alchemy’ skills, he almost caused the venue to explode, causing him to be kicked out.

However, Davis was relentless.

"No! I want to study under the grand and majestic presence of Immortal Alchemist Shaiya Minn and listen to her erudite knowledge and absorb them. I know I am lacking, but I can pay the fees. Here are the hundred thousand immortal crystals!"

Davis took out a hundred thousand immortal crystals at the front entrance, making a scene as the immortal undulations spread. On the other hand, the people were shocked, dismayed, and amused over where this young master-like character came from to splurge money on them.

"Fellow cultivator, you can’t be like this. Please stand up."

The money worked like a charm, with a few initiates quickly moving to assist him. They were immortals, causing him to laugh inwardly.

However, the middle-aged folks and elders remained stone-faced, seemingly not accepting his bribe.

"I know! Since my skills are lacking, it is only natural that I would have to pay higher!"

Davis took out a hundred thousand more immortal crystals, causing the younger immortals to gawk while even the experienced eyes twitched.

"Enough!"

However, a melodious voice echoed, resounding in the Alchemist Department.

It caused everyone to freeze, including Davis, as he felt a heavy pressure descend, the undulations of a Level Nine Immortal character revolving around him. Although the person herself wasn’t here, he realized that this person was none other than Peak-Level Immortal Alchemist Shaiya Minn.

"Child, I can understand that you want to study under me, but it’s useless. With your aptitude, no amount of teaching can allow you to become an average alchemist, much less a skillful one. However, worry not. No matter how hard people try, some are just destined to be ordinary at certain things, even though they may crave to become number one in it. I won’t say more, but as an elder, I suggest you pursue another occupation or only follow the path of cultivation."

"No. Elder, please accept me! I can work hard!"

"..." However, there was only silence.

"No... no... no..."

Davis seemed to have lost his wits, mopping on the floor as he shook his head. No one had anything to say, returning to their work. Even the budding immortals didn’t dare come near him as though Immortal Alchemist Shaiya Minn’s words were final.

After some time, Davis had his shoulders dropped as he left in a dejected manner, returning to the inn he had paid for.

At the same time, he couldn’t help but inwardly chuckle that an elder didn’t scam him. Perhaps, this family wasn’t full of scoundrels, after all.

’Well, I successfully created a scene of an unknown rich guy trying to splurge some money in order to forcefully become an alchemist...’

Still, as he thought of his actions in the Alchemy Department, he knew that the chances that the Minn Family would doubt him upon mission completion would significantly decrease, but he also couldn’t help but inwardly laugh again.

"Nadia, are you amused?"

"Very much so, master. I wish I could’ve taken a recording and amused the others as well."

"What? Are you betraying your master after receiving so many pats from your sisters?"

"Hehehe~"

Nadia mischievously laughed, causing Davis to also feel heartened. If it was the Nadia before, she definitely wouldn’t have understood the humor and instead come out to kill every single one of them, appearing innocently offended for him in his stead.

As for Eldia, having her was too dangerous at the moment, so he left her in the Nine-Treasured Immortal Ordeal Palace. By his calculation, Eldia was probably having a good time on the third floor with Fiora and Zestria.

After all, they were in the Lucent Windstorm Formation, which emulates a stormy wind and lightning zone.

Eldia had promised him to understand the essence of lightning and learn new techniques of her own, but knowing Fiora and Zestria, they might occasionally be playing with her.

Davis looked out of his room’s window. It was already night, but people were still out. There seemed to be no curfew, which made him inwardly nod for a moonlit infiltration.

Cladding himself in Nadia’s death energy, he left like a ghost.

The Minn Family only had Early Immortal Kings, so he wasn’t worried about being found out. Even the Immortal King Beast Fire Phoenix was fooled at such a close range. He was heading towards the floating palaces but momentarily stopped as he noticed something in the corner of his eyes.

He was about to turn into an alleyway but hid behind a building and looked at a brothel on the opposite side of the street.

However, his gaze wasn’t on the brothel but on the two men who came out of it.

’Wait the freaking minute... Isn’t that two of the three targets of the other Emperor Grade Mission?’
