Chapter 1583 - Taking The Situation Into Their Hands
The Heaven Gazing Sect and Heaven Mandate Temple Honorable Elders scrambled for their lives!
That Honorable Elder who got his right arm eerily disintegrated from his entire shoulder, trembled in fright as he flew away without stopping to look back. That howl almost made his soul leave his body, making him feel as if that ominous wolf was still behind him. Still, he managed to retreat to a safe place at the edge of the Grand Alstreim City and tried to recover after realizing that the ominous wolf wasn't chasing him anymore.
Blood started to spurt from his shoulder as though he had received the injury at this moment. His expression twisted, not knowing why it wasn't healing because he had already taken a precious High-Level Emperor Grade Healing Pill, so how could it be possible that the medicinal energy still wasn't able to reconstruct his arm!?
He felt that this was ridiculous before he recalled that areas struck by death energy are truly difficult to heal! Poisonous energy endures a lot as its complex composition made it difficult to erase, but what about death energy? Their composition practically erases life and keeps it that way, making him unable to regenerate his arm and shoulder!
It was almost as if the living things affected by death energy wouldn't be able to regenerate!
He mused that unless he took a Peak-Level Emperor Grade Healing Pill that's at the very peak, it probably wouldn't heal no matter how he tried. However, where would he go get a Peak-Level Emperor Grade Healing Pill?
His sect had a few, but they were all reserved for the very best. Unless he achieved something great, he could say goodbye to his right shoulder and arm for the rest of his life. Realizing this fact, his expression became unsightly, wondering why he had to take that stupid action of wanting to prove himself!
No, he refused to believe his calculations were wrong!
If he had made a move before that ominous wolf finished eating the corpse of the Zlatan Family Patriarch's, then he would've been able to kill it! He turned to look at Ancestor Dian Alstreim's silhouette in the distance, his expression twisting in hatred!
It was all his fault for delaying them from enacting justice! Still, he didn't dare go near since that ominous wold seemed to listen to him as it stopped when he bellowed her to do so.
In the distance, Nadia lowered her head as her howl slowly faded out.
She remained still for a few moments before her mouth moved.
"Ancestor, were those people responsible for my master's current state?"
Ancestor Dian Alstreim trembled.
Did Nadia just call him Ancestor?
Even he felt frightened in the presence of her violent death energy that seemed to overwhelm everything in its presence. Furthermore, he could sense that it was similar to Davis's death energy when he used it against the heavenly tribulation, but her aura was much more powerful, and he couldn't tell exactly, but the death energy was also... purer?
How he could say that it was pure when it was chaotic death left him confused, but in any case-
"No... they're not..." Ancestor Dian Alstreim spoke before his expression became ruthless, "But they could be enemies later on as they're intent on killing you..."
"I see..."
Nadia indifferently uttered before she looked in another direction.
At the moment, no common people nor guests were near in a hundred-kilometer radius. They all ran away without even looking back. Only the powerhouses were present, not daring to move an inch because they were afraid that the ominous wolf might target them for fleeing.
Different from other people, they were ninth stage powerhouses who would be truly seen as food in that wolf's eyes, so they were cautious in making a move. However, the moment that ominous wolf's gaze landed on them, they started to tremble.
Sect Master Bing Luli, Ancestor Xia Yun, and Ancestor Krane Parazen all shook from head to toe, their bodies becoming stiff like a statue.
"They're not enemies. Instead, they even supported us. The true enemies will probably be coming here from here on out..."
"I see...."
Nadia monotonously replied after hearing Ancestor Tirea Snow's statement.
"Tell them all to leave. After that, no matter who enters this Territory, I'm going to kill them all."
"Nadia, you can't do that... You'll really die as you'll provoke the entire world to be your enemy!"
Ancestor Tirea Snow trembled as she heard her utter a statement similar to what Davis would speak, but Nadia didn't seem disturbed. Instead, she turned her head to the other corpses invoking her appetite as their aroma couldn't help but enter her nostrils but simultaneously, hatred also brewed against them.
She now realized the scale of enemies that her master faced were at the Peak-Level Ninth Stage!
Certainly, she could imagine his gallant figure killing them without having any fear in his eyes even though he was endangering his own life.
"I won't let master's hunt go to waste..."
Knowing her master's wish of wanting to protect his family, she lept towards the other Dragon Families Powerhouses' corpses and started to devour them. Those three corpses were the corpses of Grand Elders from the Domitian Family, Orcha Family, and Ike Family. They all tasted different to her and gave her an enormous boost of energy that kept increasing her energy.
As for the corpses of the Soul Emperors, their Body Tempering Cultivation and Essence Gathering Cultivation weren't more remarkable than the corpses she was munching on, so she moved them to the last of her list to devour.
Quite a distance away, Sect Master Bing Luli relaxed once that predatory gaze was taken away.
Once the fear had faded, she became curious as she had no idea of what this ominous wolf's species were. Not only her, but no one had any idea, not even the Heaven Gazing Sect and the Heaven Mandate Temple. Forget this ominous wolf having the attribute of fabled death, but they have never heard of any magical beast possess death energy.
How could any being be born with death as their attribute or even withstand it? Not only was it ludicrous, but such a being was fated to die rather than being able to adapt to it!
Even the wicked path cultivators who have been said to have cultivated Death Laws were afraid of it ruining their lives, bringing them endless trouble while even making them go insane sometimes.
This was precisely the foremost reason why cultivators who practice Death Laws were eliminated in the name of justice. According to the righteous path cultivators, they weren't fit to be a part of the living as they bring nothing but death.
Nevertheless, their limited minds couldn't comprehend how this ominous wolf even came into being.
"Sect Master Bing Luli... You should leave while you have the chance."
Ancestor Tirea Snow's voice echoed.
"Right, we'll leave..."
Sect Master Bing Luli nodded and turned to look at Ancestor Xia Yun, nodding her head again as the latter did the same. Initially, they were afraid that the Dragon Families might block them from leaving, but with the Poison Lord Villa essentially out of the loop now, they had a safe path to retreat to their Mystic Ice Sect.
Moreover, Sect Master Bing Luli remained hesitant whether to call Myria here or not. With the number and the strength of the powerhouses who came here, even she felt that Myria wouldn't be a match until she broke through, so she remained hesitant to call her throughout the event.
What if she disturbed her breakthrough and caused her to fail? Not only would she hurt Myria but also get her killed, which she didn't want to, absolutely not.
Now, the Alstreim Family no longer seemed like they needed help as they seemed to know this ominous wolf that declared that it would kill people who dared to enter this Territory. They could only gulp at the thought of what kind of calamity this ominous wolf would bring to the world.
Without standing on ceremony, the Mystic Ice Sect and Thousand Pill Palace soon left.
In the distance, Isabella was watching all of this with concern before she heaved a sigh of relief. Fortunately, the situation didn't escalate, and Nadia seemed to have regained herself back.
"Nadia, can I leave this place to you? I'll watch over our man in your stead as well."
Nadia's fluffy ears pricked up as she turned to look at Isabella, who sent her a soul transmission. A purple gleam filled her eyes as she felt moved.
"Thank you, third mistress."
Indeed, she cannot go near Davis, not with this current body of hers that was still incapable of controlling the deathly gaseous aura swirling around her body.
Isabella couldn't help but shake her head.
"Call me third sis..."
Nadia's eyes widened at the acknowledgment before she heavily nodded.
"Alright, I'll send my magical beast mount to you. Inform her if anything important arises..."
"I will, third sis..."
Nadia replied, her twin tails shaking as she felt a bit happy in all this mess.
The fact that Isabella seemed to have a smile on her face told her that Davis wasn't truly dead but somehow alive. If third sis kept believing so, then she felt compelled to think the same.
After all, she, who was attuned with death, could sense that his body was alive, but she couldn't sense his soul, the closest thing she was ever tied to, which made her feel restless and scared. Now with her third sis's expression, who probably knew better, she was compelled to believe that her master is still alive.
"Mira, come out..."
Isabella mumbled with a low voice when abruptly, a brownish golden light shot out of her forehead and took to the skies before suddenly enlarging into a hundred and fifty meters tall dragon!
