Divine Emperor of Death

Chapter 1157 Steal? Or Kill And Rob?

Chapter 1157 Steal? Or Kill And Rob?

"Are you for real?" Drake asked, his expression gleaming, but it abruptly became downfallen, "Damn! I’m bound by oaths not to leak the Dual Lotus Abode’s cultivation manuals. All of us were made to do so once we joined."

"Tch..." Davis clicked his tongue in annoyance, "I thought so..."

That task he had in the Territory was to obviously obtain top grade dual cultivation manuals! Although Peak-Level Emperor Grade Dual Cultivation Manuals were out of the question, he at least hoped to obtain Low-Level, Mid-Level, or High-Level Emperor Grade ones!

He felt that he had a shot with Drake in obtaining those cultivation manuals, and when he learned that Drake now belonged to the Dual Lotus Abode and even became a core disciple in it, he became expectant to at least obtain Low-Level Emperor Grade ones. But, as expected, obtaining those cultivation manuals was easier said than done.

With Drake and the others bound by oaths, they easily couldn’t take out anything related to the Dual Lotus Abode. Honestly, he should’ve expected this, but just, he had remained hopeful like a little adolescent boy trying to get his hand on erotica for the first time in his life.

Drake suddenly became solemn, "Hey! I’m warning you. If you obtained any suspicious dual cultivation manuals outside, don’t use them. Those manuals being sold by the lesser powers have plenty of side effects and will not allow your cultivation to increase smoothly. It is not farfetched to say that they’re slow-acting poisons that the side effects would flare when you are finally out of vitality when you’re equal to a near dying old man’s state."

"I’m aware..." Davis nodded his head.

For the same reason, he had only used the dual cultivation manual he stole from Jackson Lars, who seemed to have plundered a tomb along with another woman who later became one of his two wives.

The Yin-Yang Merit Sutra was just a Peak-Level Earth Grade Essence Gathering Dual Cultivation Manual, but it was still well-made, gave little to no side effects.

The same could be said about the dual cultivation manual he got from Fallen Heaven, but its grade was at Low-Level Sky Grade, making it useless for him and the others. He had requested it using a chance, asking for the best manual that gave beneficial effects for both the parties involved. Otherwise, he might’ve got an Emperor Grade Dual Cultivation Manual that was effective to only one party and harmful to the other, which is obviously considered as a corrupt or wicked method under the righteous path.

After all, plundering was entirely different from sharing, and Davis didn’t like to rob vitality from his wives either. He wasn’t stupid. That kind of cultivation manual was the same as killing his wives.

Moreover, he had also previously obtained a King Grade Dual Cultivation Manual from the Blood Arc Mercenary’s Leader in the Sunset Magical Beast Mountain, but when he read it, the circulation method was questionable to even the oblivious him.

Of course, it would increase his cultivation when he dual cultivated as it stated, or it would’ve been torn apart by someone or even the previous owner, but side-effects were another thing altogether.

Most people wouldn’t even live till they die an old natural death but perish under struggle, so such manuals with dubious effects always never ceased to circulate around the world, granting people powers but also making their lives miserable in their latter years.

Since it was like this...

’Where should I go now... Or should I...’

Davis’s eyes flashed with a strange glint, ’Steal?’

"Oye, you are not planning anything dangerous, are you?" Drake noticed Davis’s strange glint before he realized with a start, "Don’t try to do anything funny here! If it were just me, it would be fine, but with my women here, I’ll stop you even if I have to offend!"

Davis sighed, "I’ll stop considering to rob then..."

"Hehe... Wait a minute. You’re speaking as if you can really rob a Peak-Level Emperor Grade Power...?" Drake stared at him in amusement.

"Don’t twist your words. At best, this Dual Lotus Abode is a High-Level Emperor Grade Power with two Ninth Stage Powerhouses overseeing this branch. I have the confidence to steal unless they have some powerful detection formations that could detect Soul Kings." Davis stated it as if it was a matter of fact.

"Soul King..." Drake uttered in amazement, "Of course, Soul Kings could easily traverse through this less secured bran..." His words suddenly trailed off before a creeping chill crept up his spine as he stared at Davis with an agape mouth.

"Don’t tell me..."

The six women were also dumbfounded, looking at him with disbelief etched on their faces.

Could it be...?

However, Davis shook his head, causing them to let out a deep breath of relaxation.

Drake smilingly spoke, "Don’t scare us-"

"Well, I’m a High-Level Supreme Soul Stage Expert who can slightly match a Soul King’s prowess, especially in terms of concealment..."

*Boom!~*

It was as if an explosion had gone off right around their heads.

Drake and the others froze, their expressions changing as they looked at Davis as if he were a monster.

If he could match a Soul King at two levels lower, then that was even more monstrous than being a Soul King!

Drake and Kara both did not know what to say. They knew he was strong in Soul Forging Cultivation, but to think that he was this strong! Last time, they had seen him possess a Low-Level Elder Soul Stage Cultivation, but now, the person claims that he is at the High-Level Supreme Soul Stage.

They felt that there was no need for Davis to lie unless he was up to something.

Their impression of him underwent a slight change. Davis appeared jovial and harmless, but he was basically the manifestation of the phrase, ’Pretending to be a pig to eat a tiger!’

Drake sucked in a cold breath of air, "No wonder you dare to say something about killing a core disciple without breaking a sweat. You really can do something like that in this Dual Lotus Abode itself..."

Davis thought of posing, but he also felt that it wouldn’t be good in front of his friend’s wives. As far as he knew, that was going against the so-called bro-code.

In truth, he felt that he posed enough, so he simply said, "I speak no empty thoughts..."

"So, how about it?" Davis reached out his fist and clenched, "If that core disciple has some exceptional dual cultivation manuals, I can get rid of him for you, as well as for me."

Drake’s mind churned. He felt that it was possible to easily kill that core disciple without facing any repercussions. His path would be freed as well.

"He has... We core disciples are given the Yin-Yang Merit Sutra, an Essence Gathering Dual Cultivation Manual that is at the Mid-Level Emperor Grade. If you can steal it from his corpse, then I am not aversed to this idea of you killing him anymore..." Drake uttered with hatred.

He had the confidence that he could eventually kill him with his own hands, but later on, it would become difficult to traverse the Dual Lotus Abode or even the Dual Lotus Manor for him.

If Davis was easily able to get rid of the trouble, then he wanted to borrow his help!

On the other hand, Davis became astonished. It was actually the same Yin-Yang Merit Sutra he possessed if he was not wrong! Except, it was not Sky Grade but seemed to be at Emperor Grade!

’So that tomb trespassed by Jackson Lars and his wife probably belonged to an outer disciple or a Deacon of the Dual Lotus Abode or Manor...’ He finally understood.

This also explains the manual’s efficiency and low no side effects in being beneficial to both parties involved in dual cultivation.

’As expected of a cultivation manual from the Dual Lotus Manor.’ Davis couldn’t help but feel because the other dual cultivation manuals he had seen so far had been crappy or wasteful in terms of the energy exchanged during dual cultivation sessions.

"If that’s decided, then there’s no reason to hesitate." Davis nodded his head, "I will kill that core disciple as soon as he leaves the Dual Lotus Abode."

Drake became taken aback before his heart warmed.

He knew that Davis could sneak in to kill without making a sound and escape, but he chose to wait and kill him outside instead. If it weren’t for him, then who else?

Swansea, Teriyela, Maina, Freya, and Xanarea also possessed an expression of hatred as they cast a look at Davis, wanting him to kill that core disciple. They could not forgive that person who tried to take them away from the person who treated them like a gem.

"I’m indebted..." Drake uttered.

"Don’t mention it... Instead, give me some useful info. Anything that caught your curiosity would do because who knows? I might stumble upon a treasure." Davis smirked, his gaze falling on Kara, who seemed to possess a doubtful expression.

"To advance this fast, you must be from some peak power. Don’t you think that it is time you told us your background?" Kara swiftly asked, knowing that Davis had caught her contemplative expression before she added, "Also, I’m thankful as well if you can get rid of that bastard, named Maurn Clint. He is living the life of a king with a hundred and twenty women in his abode. It would be better if all those who betrayed their partners end up being crippled or dead along with him!"

It was clear that she possessed immense hatred towards him and his rotten women as well.
