Divine Emperor of Death

Chapter 5040 Who Named You?

Thinking about increasing his undead forces, Davis was low-key excited, but he inevitably thought about the Eternal Eclipse Bird.

This undead Void Calamity had strangely developed a consciousness.

He inwardly sighed since Rioxys Plume had taken an immense liking to it and acted spoiled, not wanting to give it back. Simultaneously, the Eternal Eclipse Bird had also taken a liking to Rioxys Plume's darkness energy, so he could only let them go. Still, he didn't need it during this expedition since his opponents would most likely be Peak Exalts.

The Eternal Eclipse Bird wouldn't be able to handle them.

Thinking like this, he turned to look at Evelynn, wondering if she would be able to handle the pressure.

She had the lowest cultivation of all who were present, a Level One Empyrean.

She didn't have enough time to grow. Most of them here did not have enough time to grow. They were more or less here on a suicide mission, but planned and hoped to survive. If it were possible, he wouldn't have brought her here at all. However, his first wife, Evelynn, alone was the only one who could activate the Hell Poison Gem's replica since it was already bound to her and became somewhat more instinctive after activating its second layer, where it digested the Emperor-Tier Grand Saint Magical Beast Soul Essences.

If this replica didn't acknowledge its owner, it might poison them to death. Although there was no artifact spirit, it didn't mean that it didn't have its pride and instinct.

Even Hexena was scared of using it when she came near it and thought of using it.

"Don't worry. I have Wisteria to protect me. Isn't that right, Wisteria?"

"Mhm~"

A vague sound of a woman whose voice sounded like a wind blowing on a silk curtain emerged, nearly causing Laphria Rinmei to be spooked.

Davis wryly smiled.

How was Wisteria going to protect Evelynn? Wisteria still hadn't entered the Exalt Spirit Stage as she had just reached Level Nine Empyrean Spirit Stage, so he had Lereza and Fairy Qiyra Darkstar guard her while the others had their own mission to commit to. Within Fairy Qiyra Darkstar's astral ring, Evelynn should be safe if things got awry, and he had already informed Fairy Qiyra Darkstar that if he happened to get sealed, then she should retreat by knocking out Evelynn and taking her away.

He eyed Fairy Qiyra Darkstar as he panned his gaze discreetly. She cast a glance at him before giving him an imperceptible nod.

She had told him that even if she had to cut off Evelynn's hand and discard the Hell Poison Gem's replica in order to make her lose hope and take her away, she would do it.

Davis inwardly sighed.

Drastic circumstances required drastic measures.

Besides, it was Evelynn they were talking about. She would surely unleash the full extent of the Hell Poison Gem's replica if he were to get sealed, even get allies poisoned. Hence, he knew Fairy Qiyra Darkstar's attempt to get rid of the Hell Poison Gem's replica would be an attempt at self-defense against Evelynn.

Regardless, he didn't mind losing this forged treasure as long as Evelynn was safe.

However, he wanted more safety measures in place.

He walked to Azure Tree Realm Master and talked with her.

"Of course, as long as she doesn't poison me, I don't mind forcefully taking her away, but since I am here, I would also find it difficult to leave. Perhaps I could act as a neutral party from the beginning, but I still have the mission to store energy from the Ethereal Lumina Tree and aid you. If it weren't for this, no one would recognize me since I have become a Seraphic Azure Tree."

"True."

Davis nodded, "Still, if you find Evelynn in trouble, please help her. If she doesn't comply, feel free to knock her out and take her away."

"…"

Evelynn watched this scene with a silent gaze. Even if they want to knock her out, shouldn't they be discussing this behind closed doors or using soul transmission?

Her lips curled, "I know why we are here. I won't jeopardize your plans. Even if you get caught, I'll leave."

Davis looked at her with disdain, "Don't lie."

"Tch~" Evelynn clicked her tongue as she averted her gaze.

This rogue was brazenly using Heart Intent on her!

"…"

Meanwhile, the others were speechless.

Can they not make protecting each other sound something like a competition?

However, they noticed Evelynn's confidence.

She didn't seem powerful. Of course, they had no doubt her prowess was high, considering she was the first wife of the Divine Emperor of Death and was known to be the Hex Demoness. However, ever since this family revealed the existence of the Hell Poison Gem's replica to them, they were astonished.

According to them, it was totally capable of affecting Peak Exalts. Somehow, they didn't doubt it. After all, they were going to use it to seal- no, poison the Galaxy Wormhole if time allowed it.

"Azure Tree Realm Master," Davis continued, his expression solemn, "I'll leave Evelynn in your care when the time comes. A few others will also be protecting her. In this expedition, even if all of us die, she shouldn't die."

"…"

Azure Tree Realm Master felt that he didn't need to be so blunt in case it offended the others, but still nodded, "You have my word."

"Hey, hey, also take my Laphria away. I'll pay you." Jaiyan interjected.

"Enough. I'll protect her." The Frostcloud Sword Empress smilingly said.

Davis's words made everyone second-guess why they had come here, but her words put an end to this conversation.

"Many thanks, Azure Tree Realm Master. May I know your name?"

Davis felt he needed to know this gentle soul more.

She was willing to put herself in danger for the sake of her race. She couldn't just remain in the sanctuary and mooch off the resources, but she volunteered for the mission after he found out from the External Affairs Department that the Azure Tree Realm Master had not only broken through to the Alpha Exalt Stage but had become a Level Four Alpha Exalt so quickly.

"My name?"

The Azure Tree Realm Master looked a bit lost for a moment.

Davis blinked as he vaguely felt her forlorn emotions.

She seemed to have… forgotten her name? How can that be?

"My name is Divinacia, written by combining the letters with the 'Divine' character and 'Acacia' character."

Davis blinked, wondering who the fuck named her with the 'Divine' character. Were they drunk? Were they trying to kill her while she was still a sapling?

When he got branded with 'Divine' was the moment his world turned upside down, so he knew the adverse effects of the character 'Divine'. Why didn't Azure Tree Realm Master seem affected that much? Because the name was mixed?

However, she was still forgetful enough to not quickly remember it, so he felt doubtful.
