The temporal field around the Time Divergent slowed down time.
The Ghostly Crow Clan's Immortal Emperors, particularly Ancestors, released their darkness energy and attacked the Time Divergent. To those who were caught in the range of the temporal change and were in the same minor realm as him in the Immortal Emperor Stage, they couldn't even perceive that time had slowed down.
For them, the Time Divergent was incredibly fast when he raised his hand. Even as they thought of taking defensive measures, that thought hadn't even ended yet, and their attacks hadn't even left ten meters away from them.
To the people of the Ghostly Crow Clan, they watched this scene with amazement and shock. It wasn't like they hadn't seen such fights.
Slowing down time was something people who learned Time Laws and a bit of Space Laws could do with a little bit of combination. However, never in their lives did they think they would see their Immortal Emperors move as slowly as a turtle.
Although they could not see the rate at which time slowed down, they could see it was extremely high!
However, many people saw the Time Divergent turn to look in the direction of their main castle and tremble as though he was seething with a maddening rage, causing their hearts to leap.
Was he going to target them and destroy their clan, massacre them all?
"Are we going to face the same fate as the Alistair Family...?"
"No way... two of our queens are here. They will not allow the Divergent to live..."
"I actually heard that the Divine Emperor of Death was also here..."
"What!?"
People panicked, appearing to be not sure of what to do about the situation.
But unbeknown to them, the Time Divergent was cowed by someone who hadn't even made a move yet.
'This bastard... the Divine Emperor of Death... killed me again...!'
The Time Divergent also shuddered at the high possibility that he would not be able to escape from the Divine Emperor of Death even if he just turned around and left.
Just when he thought he was about to escape, a curved blade of what he barely recognized to be a scythe ended up slicing him from the top, cutting open his skull. At that moment, he had stopped time, but that was broken, causing the scythe to slice further and kill him.
The feeling of death encroached on him, but it was not from the Divine Emperor of Death.
Rather, he knew what this feeling was as every time he got this feeling, it meant his tribulation had become tougher. It made him maddened, for he knew his life had turned significantly more difficult than before, as that was the price to pay for death!
At this moment, the Divine Emperor of Death flew into the air and shot towards him.
Thinking back to the first time where he got killed, he clenched his fists. Just like now, the Divine Emperor approached him, hovering in the skies before him.
He had heard of the Divine Emperor of Death before. Even then, he had been full of confidence as he was an Immortal Emperor while the other party was still an Immortal King.
=======
"Oh...? If it isn't the Divine Emperor of Death, Davis Loret. I've been wanting to meet you, senior."
Moving forward, he exited the temporal zone he created and stared at the Divine Emperor of Death, his translucent jade eyes glowing with an extreme interest.
"That's understandable for a junior."
The Divine Emperor of Death responded in an amused voice, "Name yourself and state your intentions. If you don't have a good reason to cause trouble here today, then don't blame me for being ruthless."
"Ahahaha~" He couldn't help but laugh, "Funny hearing that from a lowly Immortal King. Senior, don't you think you should watch your mouth in front of me? Even though I'm not an Anarchic Divergent like you, I can become one you know. Besides, I don't know the name of my physique but I have to warn you that my potential is limitless."
He grinned with pride, but the Divine Emperor of Death merely curled his lips.
"It doesn't matter. You have five seconds to scram if you don't want to answer my questions."
"Don't be so cold."
He grinned in response, "I respect you from the bottom of my heart as you showed me Divergents like us don't need to be hiding all the time. Thanks to you taking most of the attention, I was able to destroy my poor Alistair Family without much intervention."
"You are…?"
At that moment, he saw the Divine Emperor of Death's eyes narrow, causing him to feel overcome with emotions.
Someone was finally going to recognize his true identity, causing him to stand straight and cup his hands.
"Kronos Alistair."
"…!"
Many people were shocked when they heard the Time Divergent's name!
The Alistair Family was part of the Northern Divide, like the Tyriel Family, Godwin Family, Lanfric Family, Avadrine Family, and Emberfall Family.
The Godwin Family was already decimated by the Aurora Cloud Gate because they moved against a top disciple called Myria because she had killed Nyx Godwin. Rumor was it that the Divine Emperor of Death had been involved in it as well.
Nonetheless, the Alistair Family was secluded deep in the Northern Divide, not venturing out of their region.
The Godwin Family and the Alistair Family shared a good relationship because one practiced Space Laws and the other practiced Time Laws. The two of them were prideful and didn't intermix, but they occasionally engaged in insightful debates, allowing their comprehension of Space and Time to increase together.
They also shared some friendship and when the Godwin Family was about to perish at the hands of the Aurora Cloud Gate, it was the Alistair Family that raised their voices to help. However, the elders of the Godwin Family were too vengeful and didn't know the true strength of the Aurora Cloud Gate, so there was nothing the Alistair Family could do about it.
With the Alistair Family becoming estranged from the world because they practiced Time Laws, one that was practically useless when used alone as it could only be used as an auxiliary power used to improve Space Laws and other Laws, their prowess wasn't much, so they became the target of many bandit groups that like to plunder some items from them.
Still, they were strong enough to hold out against a few major powers, but they never imagined that they would be taken out by a single person, a Divergent.
Now, this Divergent was claiming that he was a part of the very same Alistair Family that was destroyed…?
That was unbelievable!
Mentioning the Alistair Family, Kronos Alistair's mood turned somber.
"Around fifty years ago, I was going to be killed because I had been diagnosed to be a Divergent at birth, but my mother took me away and fled as far as she could. Eventually, she managed to kill the pursuers, but she wasted her soul essence a lot and soon died after a decade and a half later."
"..."
"My father found me after many years. Guess what he did?"
"He tried to kill you in order to maintain the honor of the family?"
"Hehehe…."
The Divine Emperor of Death's voice was calm, as though he was unperturbed, causing Kronos Alistair to chuckle with a grin.
The Divine Emperor of Deaths shook his head, "I understand you had a personal vendetta but you should've massacred the higher ups instead of the entire family. Alternatives aside, why didn't you declare your reason before?"
The Divine Emperor of Death asked what everyone wanted to ask.
"I don't need to explain my actions to anyone, but senior is different. I respect you. Therefore, I will also tell you the true reason why I came here."
Kronos Alistair smirked, "I heard that the Ghostly Crow Clan's Young Mistress, Queen Nadija, is still a virgin, so I came here to rob her primal yin essence and improve my own Darkness Laws."
"…!"
Queen Nadija, who was a fair distance away from the Divine Emperor of Death, shuddered in shock. The Time Divergent's target was her!?
