Divine Emperor of Death

Chapter 5219: Lost Everything?

In a dark lake, a huge crystal pulsed, releasing a blinding light into the sky and even lighting up the entire lake.

This phenomenon was called the Light of Binding Phenomenon.

Everyone who was watching this light shoot into the sky knew that the Realm Core had been unbound, but no one could have ever guessed it was done by a cultivator who couldn’t even tip the scales of a single skirmish in the Galaxy Wormhole Battlefield nor in the battle against the Divine Emperor of Death.

However, as a mere Level One Empyrean cultivator who had just entered the Empyrean Stage forcefully with the help of the Celestial Transcendent, she managed to unbind the Realm Core from the control of an Absolute Primarch.

She had her hands placed on the Realm Core’s surface, the six-curled hydra mark on her forehead swirling like it was a wheel. Her dark purple hair rose with the rippling water currents, swaying along with her black robe. She looked young, her eyes purple with a golden eyeshadow painted around the skin of her eyes while her lips were adorned with a blue hue.

Blood could be seen trickling from her lips before it dispersed into the lake.

This was none other than Madam Wesley.

She even managed to form a connection with the Realm Core after unbinding it, becoming the de facto Realm Master of the Six-Headed Hydra Upper Realm.

Instantly, her prowess rose by four, although she currently looked emaciated.

Without a word, her purple eyes quivered before she fainted. Her body floated before the Realm Core, slowly gaining distance from it as she looked like she was about to sink deep into the lake.

However, a gentle hand picked her up and rose to the surface of the lake, appearing in a huge hidden chamber, right underneath the abandoned headquarters of the Hexadra Clan.

The Celestial Transcendent carefully placed her on the bed and fed her a high-quality healing pill before turning around and sealing the place to disallow anyone from nearing the Realm Core ever again.

"..."

He turned to look at Madam Wesley, who quickly regained consciousness.

He then cupped her hands and bowed his head lightly, "Thanks to your courageous action, I am confident in securing the realm until a true Realm Master could hold the helm. The human race and the Celestial Transcendent Galaxy will remember your efforts and reward you accordingly. If you so like, you could also come to my family as a guest. Should you need protection beyond all, I’m willing to even accept you as my adopted daughter. I, the Supreme Ruler of the Celestial Transcendent Galaxy, won’t forget this timely favor and effort."

He said with a solemn voice.

"Adopted daughter..."

Madam Wesley blinked with her purple eyes weakly before her lips curled lightly, "If the Supreme One wants to imprison me for fear of losing my hydra blessing to the hydra galaxy, can I say no?"

The Celestial Transcendent could only spread his hands and shrug, "You could choose to remain here, cultivate as the Realm Master, but many would be after your life even if not for your World Spirit Hydra Blessing Inheritance. The only safe way for me to protect you is if you accompany me to my home as my honorary daughter who saved the realm from Malzor Hexadra and the Hell Hydra Monarch. This should also give you enough resources to cultivate better and rise higher."

"..."

Madam Wesley appeared silent for a few moments, well aware that her inheritance allowed other inheritors to sense her.

Her lips moved, "I was indebted to Clara for curing me of my ailment, and hence, decided to help your eminence out with your plan at the cost of my bloodsoul essence and perhaps even my accidental demise. Nothing more, nothing less."

"..."

The Celestial Transcendent couldn’t say anything, not after this woman lost everything.

She lost her family, lost her husband, lost her drive, and probably even lost her Will to live. But even before that, she was as silent and cold as ice since she seemed to have lost most of her memories but retained the memory of living as an illegitimate daughter of a prostitute and the head of the Three-Headed Hydra Clan’s Trissadra Clan.

She could only remember that her life was miserable as she was constantly bullied and received little to no resources, and after she woke up from slumber and remembered absolutely no one in the Wesley Family, she nearly had a full-blown panic attack. Because of this, Madam Wesley acknowledged no one in her life except Clara, the person who saved her.

Of course, she gave him respect, but that didn’t mean she would listen to him.

She looked like she wanted to die at any moment as she stared at the ceiling with a dull gaze, making him feel uncomfortable.

"You still don’t have your memories back?" He asked.

Madam Wesley remained lying on the bed before she slowly shook her head.

Even Clara confirmed that Madam Wesley wasn’t lying when she said that she had no memories of how she came to the Wesley Family and became loved by her so-called husband Maxim Wesley so much, so he could only imagine what kind of emotions she was going through right now. After all, her husband was dead, and the people she had interacted with were also dead from the Hydra Heaven’s Warriors attack.

He didn’t even know if she was feeling sorrow or just wanted to erase her life to start anew.

As an Empyrean, she was at least capable of having a new life with his help, making him think she was just moments away from asking this of him.

"Can your eminence help me reincarnate instead?"

"..."

The Celestial Transcendent heaved a sigh inwardly before shaking his head, "Your death might result in the Hydra Galaxy obtaining the inheritance, so I will encourage you to live. I need you to live."

"So selfish. I suppose I need to at least live until I hand over the Realm Core to someone else."

"Precisely. There’s an upcoming tournament to decide the Realm Master. You can retain your strength as you participate in it to attempt to gain control over the realm and your own fate. However, I wouldn’t recommend staying here as the Galaxy Wormhole shows no sign of closing. The Heaven’s Will deemed that it needs to remain open, so I have come to the conclusion to seal it in three, two- one, and that’s done."

"...?"

Madam Wesley couldn’t understand much, but she could tell that the Supreme One had succeeded in his plans.

Momentarily, she also felt like she had heard someone cussing out the Celestial Transcendent. She could only imagine that it was the Hell Hydra Monarch.

Hearing no more praise or questions, she closed her eyes and went back to sleep, hoping it was an eternal one, but she found herself waking up hours later before being handed over the responsibilities of a Realm Master with a vast array of Trissadra Clan experts and Hexadra Clan remnants who remained loyal to the human race helping her out.

The flying palace Fairy Glacia Frigidveil rode to the tribulation site finally arrived above the heavenly life lake that had thinned by sixty percent or so.

Davis’s avatar stepped out, borrowed something from his spatial ring that Fairy Qiyra Darkstar possessed, and hurriedly shot back in the direction of the Galaxy Wormhole Battlefield, leaving many speechless.

Some Heaven’s Warriors followed the avatar, wondering what he was going to do since he had brought out a real scythe.

"Master...? Master...!? Where are you taking me!? I’m telling you- I’m not fit to participate in battles of these levels!"

Only a scared voice resounded across the heaven and earth.
