Divine Emperor of Death

3303 Dealing With The Strong Barrier

"Screech!!!~*

The cries of many Phoenixes angrily resounded throughout the Zenflame City, resonating along with the other bird cries filled with various emotions.

It caused Davis to look down and pan his gaze as he saw so many Immortal Emperors, around forty of them from other avian-type species.

They consisted mostly of Early Stage Immortal Emperors, but there were also some Mid Stage Immortal Emperors who could even be Grand Elders or Ancestors depending on the strength of their power.

It was unknown if they were long-time guests or were temporarily staying here, or even called to rally against him. He didn't care which one it was as he already declared that he was only targeting the Fire Phoenix Clan, so for them to stay here and scream at him, they were courting death.

The furious cries of the Grand Elder Phoenixes did nothing to him. Even though they packed a sonic attack enough to kill an Early Immortal Emperor or at least cause them to fall into slumber, he remained standing in the sky. It seemed like they were able to control the city-wide barrier to efficiently attack him.

At this moment, he sensed a movement in the palace behind the mountains.

Five crimson-robed old men stepped out.

They seemed to have one foot into the grave as their faces all looked withered, some even having blisters as though poisoned.

'Level Seven... Level Eight Immortal Emperors...'

It didn't take Davis much to know that they were the surviving Ancestors of the Fire Phoenix Clan. He reckoned that he woke them all up when he underwent his Anarchic Heavenly Tribulation in this region but could only guess that they didn't dare chase him due to the heavenly tribulation or because of someone whom he had a faint idea of.

He knew he could beat none of them unless he used Fallen Heaven's energy, which he was willing to commit to as he couldn't sense much of a difference in the bubble of fate. The thought of  massacring them didn't make his scalp turn numb or cause him to feel prickly all over his soul, which also meant it was over for the Fire Phoenix Clan- no, Zenflame Clan in terms of future unless they had a Divergent who could twist fate to their advantage somehow.

Despite having such power, they still stayed within the barrier, making Davis begin to shake as he held his forehead with one hand and chuckled.

'Bastards are wary of Calypsea... probably thinking I have her hidden in me...'

He imagined the disciples of the Ice Phoenix Clan who were with him talked about Calypsea's true prowess, which then made its way to the Phoenix Alliance before the Fire Phoenix Clan finally came to know of it. In actuality, he was low-key depending on those disciples to spread information about Calypsea, and even if they didn't, he had already sent Cyclonis Blizzara a soul transmission before they separated, telling her to intentionally leak information about Calypsea's true strength to the Ice Phoenix Clan.

Having a good laugh, his anger also receded. He flung Yama around before standing on the curved white-black blade and leaning on the white rod, looking cocky as an arrogant young master.

"Which of you is Reselius Zenflame?"

He spoke normally, but his voice traversed the area as it spread five hundred thousand kilometers with the wind, causing numerous hearts to shake.

"None of them are Reselius..."

Davis blinked ever so lightly. The Ancestors of the Fire Phoenix Clan didn't speak, and neither did the Grand Elders. Instead, there were three people behind him, and one of them spoke, causing Davis to smile ever so lightly.

"Founder Zenflame, did you suddenly start feeling familial love for your second son?"

"I have never stopped loving him, but he is long dead."

Great Ancestor Zenflame appeared beside Davis with a forlorn expression. He panned his gaze across before his gaze fell on the Fire Phoenix Clan's Ancestors, none of whom he could recognize as they all seemed to be born years after he went to sleep in the Heavenly Ice Stasis Valley.

"Then what have you come here for? To stop me?"

Davis finally turned to look at Great Ancestor Zenflame. His flawless looks and crimson hair swaying in the air were charismatic, but his expression was relatively lackluster, as though lamenting that it came to this point.

"We, inheritors, will also actively help you, allowing you to get inside the detection and defensive formations if you need."

Great Ancestor Zenflame turned to look at Davis, "That's what I said back then, so we're here to help you deactivate the barrier or even make it work in our favor. All we ask is you spare the innocents and kill Ancestor Reselius and his cronies who led the Fire Phoenix Clan astray."

"Founder! You're betraying us!?"

"Traitor!"

Roared numerous Grand Elders of the Fire Phoenix Clan.

However, Davis and Grand Ancestor Zenflame ignored them all as they looked at each other with solemn gazes.

"You came prepared to die, huh..." Davis inclined his head.

He was about to unleash the Level Seven Vacuous Beast Rabbit sealed inside the Nine-Phoenix, Locking Relic on the barrier and letting it waste the barrier's energy while he watched the scene from the shadows. If any of them dared to come out to take care of the Vacuous Beast Rabbit, he planned to strike them, or if they opened the barrier to strike from the inside, he planned to sneak in. He was planning on initiating carnage no matter what.

However, the three inheritors of the Fire Phoenix Clan proceeded to give him an alternative, but the moment they opened the barrier, they could be easily killed.

After all, they were nothing but Immortal Kings who could probably match Level Three Immortal Emperors utmost, but there were many Mid-Stage Immortal Emperors, not to mention the Ancestors who could easily rip them apart even from the current distance they were hovering.

"You could do as you please. I have no way to stop you, nor do I have the heart to watch it. I'm just... tired..."

Grand Ancestor Zenflame took his gaze away and sighed, "I believe inheritor Shirley would obtain the inheritance since she had become so powerful than us. Then, our only regret is not being able to see the Fire Phoenix Clan prosper."

"Everyone, listen up!"

"Your Founder and First Inheritor, Great Ancestor Zenflame, is here!"

Sierra and Hirona's voices melodiously echoed, attracting a huge audience instantly, followed by Grand Ancestor Zenflame, heaving a heavy breath as he opened his mouth and raised his voice.

"Everyone. The Fire Phoenix Clan I painstakingly founded has long been overthrown and overtaken by my second son, whom I crippled because he lent his emotions to the wicked side, later causing countless royalty and imperial entities of our clan to be brutally harmed and tortured to obtain their blood essence and feed them to his descendants. Today that wickedness of our clan shall be extinguished, so if you don't want to get caught up in it, leave!"

"Leave the city!"

Great Ancestor Zenflame roared with his hands spread, his eyes bloodshot.

"..."

"..."

"..."

But even after three seconds passed, there was not a single movement in the city, causing his expression to sink into despair. 

"Second inheritor and third inheritor... please do it..."

"..."

Sierra and Hirona trembled as they heard Great Ancestor Zenflame's resigned voice. Their two pair of beautiful ruby eyes swelled with tears. They joined their hands reluctantly, intending to deactivate the barrier they had built to protect the people of the Fire Phoenix Clan, only to allow them to be slaughtered millions of years later. 2
