Divine Emperor of Death Chapter 2742 Back There

Chapter 2742 Back There

"..."

A black-haired man with sapphire eyes looked at a cracked life table with red eyes. Beside him, there were two people. One wore a luxurious white robe that symbolized the presence of an Ancestor, and the other seemed to be a Grand Elder.

The common thing with them was all three of them were shaking as they saw the cracked tablet. However, looking at the other tablets on the shelf, they came to understand that it was only one of them who had died.

The three of them were none other than Logan Loret, Ancestor Dian Alstreim, and Grand Elder Valdrey Alstreim.

"Suppress this information. No one should come to know of it." A solemn voice echoed from Logan as he clenched his teeth, causing the other two to nod.

Grand Elder Valdrey Alstreim nodded but still appeared shocked, "This... this shouldn’t be possible."

"Indeed." Ancestor Dian Alstreim nodded heavily, "The others are alive. I think this is a mistake..."

Hearing them, Logan once again took a deep breath to calm himself down.

"Whatever it may be, my son foresaw it. Before leaving, he did say no- enunciated to me that if his life tablet were to break, we shouldn’t be hasty and remain following his words up until the year he allowed us to ascend unless we’re in danger ourselves."

Logan sighed, his expression appearing to be calm, but his hands were twitching as purple-yang lightning kept arcing around his hands.

Ancestor Dian Alstreim and Grand Elder Valdrey Alstreim didn’t know what to say.

"Brother..."

Abruptly, a heartrending voice echoed, causing everyone to react in an alarmed manner as they turned to look behind, only to see Diana Loret manifest like the wind as her silhouette flickered, tears falling down her eyes.

Instantly, the three of them surrounded her and sealed the Life Tablet Hall.

Diana had followed her father here as she saw him fly away solemnly as she had never seen before. Ever since her big brother left, what kind of trouble did they have to face?

There were practically none other than having to take care of internal affairs.

She quickly noticed something was wrong and followed him there, only to see her big brother’s life table broken. She fell from the air and planted her knees on the ground with a thud, appearing full of disbelief as tears emerged in her eyes.

"It’s nothing, Diana. Your big brother is still alive. Remember, he’s the Emperor of Death. He can’t die easily."

Logan quickly appeared before his daughter and held her shoulders, shaking her out of her reverie, but Diana’s tears fell as she turned to look at her father, her lips quivering.

"Truly...?"

Logan’s expression fell. How should he know? Should he lie? He can only tell her to remain hopeful, but those were also words he would like someone to say to him.

Noticing the hesitation in her father’s eyes, Diana’s heart shook.

"Ahhhhhh~~ Brother!!!"

She released a heart-wrenching cry and pounced, reaching out her hand towards the life tablet as her wind energy exploded, sending Logan flying before he quickly regained balance.

Peak-Level Ninth Stage undulations exploded out of them all as the three men worked together to suppress Diana.

*Bzzz!~*

Their auras all descended and suppressed Diana halfway before she could reach the shelf, causing her to fall again. She still had her hand reached out, but with a flicker of a hand behind her neck, she fell silent before falling to the floor completely.

But before she could finally hit the ground, two hands gently grasped her.

"..."

Despite neutralizing Diana for making a fuss, Logan’s expression was unsightly. If this news spread, it would be utterly devastating to his family, and he knew for a fact that the ones who had reached the peak of the Ninth Stage would try to ascend without permission.

He was especially worried about his wife Claire as he knew that she would either go crazy or descend into depression, making him think that no one should absolutely come into contact with this despairing information.

His blow was light that Diana quickly regained consciousness. However, she didn’t struggle this time but fell silent, her body trembling as tears dripped onto the surface.

Logan couldn’t help but make a sorrowful face. He knew how cheery she was every day, most of the time only looking forward to ascending and meeting her big brother to show off her incredible prowess that was taught and gifted by Founder Alstreim.

But then suddenly today, it was known that her brother’s life tablet broke. This news was utterly devastating to them, even making a hole in their law hearts as they felt their pillar shattering. Moreover, to Logan, Davis was the only son he looked up to.

His son had far surpassed him in all regards, but even then, he only felt pride instead of jealousy, so hearing this news was like a clap of thunder to him first.

Taking a deep breath to suppress his overflowing emotions, he spoke again.

"Diana, we must be strong at this moment, but we do not need to believe in the worst until we see your brother’s dead body. Look, the others who went with him are still alive."

"...!"

Diana appeared like she had realized something, causing her to turn to look at her father, her beautiful face an utter mess.

"Father, we... we can ascend and search for brother... We can, can’t we? We’re strong enough..."

Logan’s expression hardened, "I will not allow it."

Diana became stunned, "Why...?"

"You’re not going anywhere, Diana. Don’t make me seal your cultivation."

"Why... why... why!?" Diana clenched her teeth as she waved her sleeve.

"Brother has done so much for us! If we can’t help him in times of need, what are we!? Are we still his family!?"

Her voice echoed with deep emotions, echoing throughout the hall as it caused the other two to look away, unable to bear the guilt of being powerless.

"Forgive this useless father for being powerless, so the least your father can do is follow your big brother’s words until the end and protect this family by doing whatever is necessary."

Logan’s expression turned sorrowful, causing Diana to be taken aback before she pursed her lips, shedding more tears.

"I’m sorry, father. I didn’t mean to be rude..."

"It’s fine. I’m his father. My skin is thick..." Logan stood up as he spoke with confidence, almost causing Diana to crack a smile.

Seeing her smile lightly, Logan also felt at ease.

He then shortly explained Davis’s instructions and told her not to spread this information because it would lead to instability in the Territories and torment their family.

Only then did Diana understand, slowly nodding her head as she agreed not to spread the information. However, she still looked unwilling, wanting to ascend to search for her big brother, but then her father’s voice echoed, causing her eyes to light up.

"But that doesn’t mean we can’t do anything about it. Call the Solar Dragon Emperor. He should be willing to take this risk as they’re more or less life and death brothers."
