Chapter 1661 - Ruth For Ruthless

Looking at the shocked faces of the Vast Sky Emperor, Mandate Emperor, Karmic Guardian Emperor, and the Starnova Emperor, Davis felt that their chaotic emotions at this moment couldn't be helped, considering that the strongest Soul Emperor was Soul Emperor Zealwonder, even though the four Emperors were Soul Emperors themselves. He could sense that except the Starnova Emperor, who is at High-Level Emperor Soul Stage, all three Emperors were at Peak-Level Emperor Soul Stage.

But still, Soul Emperor Zealwonder remained the strongest Soul Emperor. Moreover, with legacy artifacts like the Purple Soul Flame Lantern, Soul Emperor Zealwonder can battle a level higher, matching him to the likes of Starnova Emperor's Essence Gathering Cultivation prowess. However, since the soul reigned when on an equal level compared to essence or body on humans, Soul Emperor Zealwonder gained a significant advantage in suppressing their souls.

Defeating Soul Emperor Zealwonder was one thing, but unless they brought their own Legacy Artifacts to defend and attack, it was unlikely they would be able to kill him, and yet, Davis precisely managed to kill Soul Emperor Zealwonder in his own home, making it a piece of diabolical news for them to hear and understand that they couldn't help but still reel in disbelief!

"That's the future of you people if you keep irritating me." Davis smiled nonchalantly before his expression brightened, "Ah, this is not a threat but a warning. So please do well to not offend me."

The expressions of the four Emperors finally changed as they came back to reality. They looked at Davis with utter caution, wondering what he meant by that. What does it mean to not offend him?

What counts as offending him!?

For a moment, they were taken into his flow before the Mandate Emperor narrowed his eyes and broke out of it.

"So you're now alive. Good. Are you on our righteous path side or on the wicked path's side?"

"I want some semblance of order and peace to exist, so you can count me as a person of the righteous path. Other than that, I won't hesitate to slaughter people if they offend me, just like my wife Evelynn, who slaughtered the Poison Lord Villa for me."

Davis felt like he made his intentions clear before he waved his fingers, "Now return to your places. I won't give you the key to my birthplace, although you're free to try and take it from me whilst endangering your lives."

"Hmph!" The Mandate Emperor harrumphed, "Do you have someone who can inherit it before the Calamity Light falls? This is-"

"That's none of your concern."

Davis simply interrupted, causing the Mandate Emperor to shut his mouth before he opened again.

"What about the Dragon Families? Don't tell me you're going to still take revenge on them when you already killed more than half of their powerhouses."

"I-"

"Davis, can you let me take care of this one?"

Davis looked at Isabella as he watched her clear expression that requested that he leave this matter to her. He lightly smirked as his lips moved.

"Go ahead."

Since she was the one who the Dragon Families targeted, Davis felt that she had a lot of say in dealing with the Dragon Families. Still, he also knew how ruthless Isabella was with her enemies. Therefore, he wasn't worried that she would let them go.

Isabella deeply smiled back at him before she let go of his hand and stepped forward, her martial undulations surging as she stood with valor while displaying a domineering might.

"What are the intentions of the Four Great Righteous Sects if we were to storm the Dragon Families?"

The Mandate Emperor narrowed his eyes before his lips moved.

"We will interfere as long as the Dragon Families say that they are willing to pay reparations. Meaningless deaths aren't something we would watch and standby without doing something, and your cause would've been more justifiable if your husband was truly dead. But clearly, he is alive, which doesn't warrant a massacre of any sort. What your husband already did, killing more than fifty powerhouses and weakening the righteous path is more than enough justice."

"That is not for you people to decide." Isabella shook her head, "This isn't something like give and take or an eye for an eye. The Dragon Families were all overbearing, wanting to take me away from my husband even after knowing that I was married to him, trying to kill him through various means. Clearly, they all deserved death from that moment on, and you people who didn't know anything at that time should stay clear of our problems."

"I am in an arbitrating position for you two opposing parties, so you can't suddenly tell me to leave, nor tell us to leave as we are one entity."

The Mandate Emperor denied, causing Isabella to lightly scoff.

"Even if you all were not there, Nadia is more than enough to take them all out while staying back to protect my family. Besides, my husband was still alive, recuperating from his soul injuries, while big sister Evelynn became capable of almost anything; even killing one of you is possible for her at this moment. Do you honestly think that the Dragon Families would've been able to do anything to me, to us?"

"..."

The expressions of the four Emperors became quite unpleasant.

"You're delusional if you think that you people protected me for a single moment. Instead, the ones whom you were protecting were the Dragon Families. Be sure to tell them that."

The Mandate Emperor stared at Isabella and Davis for a while before he turned to look at the Karmic Guardian Emperor, seemingly talking through soul transmission. After some time, the Mandate Emperor returned his gaze to them.

"Fine, what are your demands?"

Isabella inwardly smirked but maintained an indifferent expression.

"The Orcha Family and Ike Family can pay their reparations. However, it should be acceptable. As for the Zlatan Family and the Domitian Family, my demand is for them to bring the heads of all their Grand Elders."

"...!?"

The expressions of the four Emperors changed while the All-Seeing Emperor practically trembled in excitement.

This info was certainly juicy as it was bloody!

"Earth Dragon Queen. Are you serious? You want all the heads of their Grand Elders?"

The Mandate Emperor calmed and asked. One head, he could understand, but all?

Isabella kept her indifferent expression as she nodded. Her expression seemed to be devoid of hatred, as though she was merely stating it out of disdain.

"If they couldn't, then have them send their Dragon Queens as slaves. I know they're all chaste and have yet to marry, so they better not try to change that if they chose this option. That's all. If they want to send me reparations, then they have these two choices to choose from. I'm rather merciful, aren't I?"

"This... This is preposterous!"

The Mandate Emperor flicked his sleeves, his expression appearing to be outraged while the others also looked angered. As usual, the All-Seeing Emperor appeared more excited, but on the other hand, Davis lightly gazed at his lovely Isabella, wondering what she was going on about!

"Preposterous?" Isabella smirked in response, "I'm just doing what they tried to do to me, albeit more openly. Or, you can tell them to send the heads of their Grand Elders to us, packed neatly."

"No, you can't. Please reconsider. This is ridiculous, humiliating, and barbarous to the Dragon Families, and they would not swallow such demands...!"

The Mandate Emperor kept shaking his head, unwilling to believe that such a good woman would behave like this.

Could she have gone mad from wanting to take revenge?

"That's fine." However, Isabella shook her head, "Just tell them that their powers would face the same fate as Soul Emperor Zealwonder and Poison Lord Villa if they were to fail to comply with one of these two choices. We are not afraid, and in fact, you all should be afraid of making us a menace to the righteous path."

The Mandate Emperor's body trembled as if he couldn't believe that his woman could be truly ruthless. However, even after waiting for a while, her tone or expression didn't change, causing him to harrumph.

"Very well! I will relay your demands to the Dragon Families, but I hope you two parties can reconcile without bloodshed."

Flicking his sleeves, he flew towards the magnificent ship while the others followed suit. Although the Vast Sky Emperor appeared reluctant as though wanting to take the Emperor of Death down today, he too followed their backs and used his energy to fly the ship, opening a spatial tunnel as they entered.

'As I thought, people are extremely reasonable when power speaks.'

Davis thought as he witnessed their actions before he suddenly remembered.

"Ah, yes. Don't forget to remove your cultivators blocking the path to my birthplace. Otherwise, I'm going to count that as an offense."

He waved his hand, waving them goodbye while the Mandate Emperor looked at him before the magnificent ship completely entered the spatial tunnel and zoomed away while space stitched itself back to normalcy.

They came with confidence but retreated in defeat.

The All-Seeing Emperor also retreated, not staying here a second longer as if he deeply feared for his life.

Davis felt that it was a pity that he wanted to make a monetary connection with the All-Seeing Emperor, but thinking he could do it later, he shrugged and turned to look at Isabella.

"Isabella, can I know why you made such demands?"

"Don't worry." Isabella stared at the empty space before she turned to look at him, "They're not going to send their Dragon Queens if they value their reputations. On the other hand, their reputation would also fall to the gutter if they lose their Grand Elders, but such powerhouses can be regained later with resources. But in truth, I'm hoping that they won't swallow my demands since their reputation, the thing they care the most about is on the line so we can kill them with reason in our grasp."

Davis nodded his head to her answer as he understood her thought process.

However, with the Zlatan Family and Domitian Family having lost their Patriarchs, would they agree to send the heads of their Grand Elders, who were the most needed powerhouses of their families right now?

He didn't think that it was possible, but because of that, there are more chances that they might send their Dragon Queens to appease him, but ultimately, he felt that they would choose to fight to the death as it was well known that they idolized their reputation.

"But," Isabella suddenly spoke as she lightly smiled at him, "If they send their Dragon Queens and you want them, go ahead. They're spoils of a conflict that we never started and weren't in the wrong, after all."

Davis's expression became quite innocent as he wryly smiled, finding that his Isabella was.... truly ruthless!
