Divine Emperor of Death

Chapter 3741  Sweet Deal?

Davis and Myria exited their love-making session when the Third Hidden Pagoda's trial was underway.

During this time, Shirley's group and Isabella's group also reunited. They were nearer than they thought they would be, considering the randomness of the teleportation formation.

"Hahaha! Rocksunder, you loser! I won!"

Founder Zenflame made fun of Founder Rocksunder every moment he got.

"…"

Founder Rocksunder literally sat on a sundered rock that just broke from their short battle, veins erupting on his forehead. He glared at Founder Zenflame, his secretive father-in-law, with a gaze full of vengeance.

To have lost in their rivalry hurt his pride deeply, but he eventually sighed, thinking that it was cool since he stole Founder Zenflame's daughter.

A smirk emerged on his lips, which suddenly caused Founder Zenflame to stop before veins also erupted on his forehead.

It took him everything he had, including losing two limbs and using two Divine Techniques, and he finally won after a gruesome battle with seven inheritors in the Sixth Hidden Pagoda, so he felt intense pride. However, such a battle still couldn't compare to the loss he felt when Founder Rocksunder lovingly stole his daughter.

"Heh~"

Founder Rocksunder averted his gaze smugly, causing Founder Zenflame to snap and roar.

"Rocksunder, you bastard! Die!"

"…"

The two of their antics made the ladies not know what to say as they couldn't understand how they could be allies and enemies at the same time while fighting, like they killed each other's family.

After all, they were unaware that they were family.

However, Isabella and Shirley knew, so they couldn't stop smiling. The Azure Dragon who tried to pursue Saintess Lunaria and exchanged a covenant with her was none other than Founder Rocksunder's son and Founder Zenflame's grandson.

"You freaks! Keep it down!"

Noctis interrupted them, forcefully intervening. He was the only normal guy here who was ordained to one life, one wife. He stopped them from breaking their hiding place and attracting the Empyrean Stage Crystal Beasts that were still lurking outside.

Once they were calmed, the smile left Shirley and Isabella's face.

They were once again separated from their big sister. They couldn't sense her either, so they guessed she was a long way away. However, the more days passed, the better the distance they could sense from the hex implanted in them, so they only had to wait. Then again, they wished Evelynn would be safe until that time.

"Psst, come here…"

Shirley blinked.

Someone sent a soul transmission to her. When she turned to look, she saw it was Founder Zenflame. He was about to turn into a tunnel but looked out like a creep and called out to her.

"…"

Shirley could only blink again, wondering what this meant.

However, Founder Zenflame didn't say anything and entered the tunnel.

Shirley looked down, narrowing her brows. Eventually, she instructed Isabella and Flamerose to come looking for her if she didn't come out in five minutes or if she no longer sensed her presence.

As for Frostrose, she was designated as part of the Ice Phoenix Clan for some reason, so she was teleported to an unknown location. She couldn't be found even if they tried because the monsters were still walking outside.

Sometime later, Shirley walked into the tunnel when the others didn't notice as they had begun cultivating. She made it to Founder Zenflame's makeshift cultivation cave and widened her eyes at him.

"What is the meaning of calling me like that, Founder? It couldn't be a nightly affair, could it?"

"Do you want me to die that badly?"

Founder Zenflame looked appalled before he stood up and shook his head.

"You're late, but I still wanted to give this to you."

He looked ahead and wondered if anyone was near the exit, but it didn't seem like it, so he slipped his hand inside his sleeve and took out a thing.

No, it was a few things.

"…"

Shirley stared at the three Gilded Realm Ascendant Pills in his palm. She returned her gaze to his face, her eyes scrutinizing his expression and her intent demanding for him to explain himself over displaying such a thing outside.

"I don't know how many pills you three have combined, but I wish to offer these three pills I suffered hard to obtain to the Davis Family so the Fire Phoenix Clan could be fully forgiven and have our debts settled."

"Founder…"

Shirley stood in shock as she could feel the sincerity in Founder Zenflame's voice.

"We do not wish to be shameless."

Founder Zenflame uttered with a righteous expression, his brows furrowing.

Shirley bit her lips.

The three Gilded Realm Ascendant Pills in front of her were extremely dazzling, almost blinding her eyes. She could now relate to how others felt when these pills were right in front of them, but they couldn't take it.

She wanted to snatch it from Founder Zenflame and kick his face to escape, even though he was practically offering it on a silver plate. That's how attractive it was.

"We do not wish to be shameless either."

But ultimately, Shirley shook her head.

Forgiveness wasn't given over the exchange of resources. They could only ignore it with the wall constructed from such a resource exchange. Vissit novelbin(.)c.𝒐m for updates

Founder Zenflame also understood this, so he looked away a bit and thought for a few seconds.

"Then how about this…? The Fire Phoenix Clan in the true immortal world will have some immunity to the troubles they will create for you in the upcoming future…" Founder Zenflame sounded out as though he was unsure.

"…"

Shirley's brows twitched.

Founder Zenflame wanted the Davis Family to ignore the troubles that the Fire Phoenix Clan might give them in the future and spare them?

'Is this the legendary insurance scam Mingzhi told us about…?' She thought.

She raised her hand, pointing at Founder Zenflame as though she was about to berate him, but Founder Zenflame quickly opened his mouth.

"Some immunity… I meant 'some' immunity… not 'full' immunity…"

"Deal!"

Shirley snatched three Gilded Realm Ascendant Pills and made her way out before the others could show up and slaughter Founder Zenflame over a misunderstanding. She walked out with such speed as though he was going to go back on his deal.

"…"

Founder Zenflame could only watch Shirley leave with tears almost falling from his eyes. Gone… his pills were gone.
