Divine Emperor of Death

Chapter 1923: Are You Mocking Us?



Chapter 1923: Are You Mocking Us?

The New Era Battle Arena was silent, but it seemed to boil with emotions.

Some people looked indifferent, but many were angered.

A wicked path woman appeared right into the heart of one of their most important competitions of the millennium, no, this era and made a fool out of them!? How could they let this pass?

They were rearing to demand answers from the Emperor of Death and punish Schleya for her impudent actions that disrespected the way they fought battles.

Things were tense on the battle stage after Schleya announced the winner.

However, Schleya didn't release her clasped hands. Instead, she connected her ten fingers and formed a triangle, her crimson lips moving as her melodious voice echoed out.

"Blood Pledge: Blood Rejuvenation Art."

The blue-robed person who had his four limbs severed. The one who had knees ripped off and had injuries in his inner thighs. The other person who had a part of his shoulders missing along with one of his legs and the last person whose fingers and toes were sliced and diced…

Suddenly, the bloodied body parts that lay on the ground shook before they floated in the air, shooting towards their respective owners. They were already covered in blood, but one could see a thin layer of foreign blood energy surround them.

The four opponents had their scalp turn numb as they saw their own body parts attack them. However, hearing Schleya's voice, they forced themselves to stay their hands and felt their severed body parts attach themselves back to their bodies, that thin layer of blood energy hurriedly reconstructing their tissues back as they attached themselves back to their bodies.

The expressions of the crowd changed. Some even had their mouths that were already hanging further drop to the bottom of their neck.

This… that wicked path woman actually healed them back to health!?

The four opponents stood stunned in different locations as they were forced out of the battle stage upon giving up, but looking at their own bodies that had healed without them having to take any kind of pills, they were stunned beyond recognition.

Although some parts of their bodies were still missing, that was because they were blown by their own energies while battling with Schleya. They understood that it couldn't be brought back.

However, to think that she had covered their severed body parts with blood energy and later intended to activate this strange yet unique technique. They were still dumbfounded, to say the least.

However, some took this the other way.

"What is the meaning of this?"

The Karmic Guardian Emperor's voice echoed out, causing everyone to turn to look at him.

"Pity? A show of force? Or are you mocking us?"

His voice echoed once again, causing Schleya to close her eyes before reopening them.

"Blood is ultimately a part of us. I don't understand why the righteous path looks down on cultivating Blood Laws, for blood is almost everything, starting from creating your flesh in your mother's womb to deciding who are your ancestors, relatives, progenies, and even karmic bindings. When it is so intrinsic to us than any other law, why is it so devilized?"

Hearing her tone, many people were 'horrified'. A wicked path woman actually wants to debate than battle to the death?

However, the content of her words made them feel strange.

Indeed, blood was so unique that it many times decided their fates. Who could deny that it did not play a vital role in their lives? For example, their talent, the blood that flowed in them alone, was something that their father and mother gave them through conception.

In truth, it wasn't like the righteous path didn't use Blood Laws.

It was embedded in formations to check one's bloodline. People knew how to check if their children were theirs through blood assimilation methods. The technique to sacrifice one's blood essence to increase one's strength temporarily. These were truly intrinsical in nature to them, like Schleya said. However, their usage of Blood Laws ended there and didn't go to the point of killing and refining the blood of others.

"You are right, but this kind of speech ends in sophistry." The Karmic Guardian Emperor shook his head, "Ultimately, you have to kill and refine others in order to improve Blood Laws, and such blatantly evil and direct method of increasing one's power will not be tolerated. As humans, the least we should do is not kill each other to improve ourselves, not act like magical beasts, devouring each other."

"So it's fine if done indirectly?" Schleya narrowed her eyes, "I mean, don't you righteous path people also fight for and kill each other for resources?"

"That's merely the last resort. Peaceful exchange is always our first option."

"More like subtle threatening to end their life that's even more devious and despicable than showing one's honest feelings…"

Schleya shook her head and turned around, "Ridiculous."

Leaving a single and final word, she left the battle stage, heading back to the Alstreim Family's seating area while leaving millions of dumbfounded people wondering to themselves.

They weren't stupid. Just now, they had seen what Blood Laws was capable of. It could be used to heal others and not only oneself, but all they've seen was the brutality committed by it, just like how Schleya severed the limbs of many. If she hadn't shown them that she could actually heal others, they would still think of her as a wicked path person, and the pre-conceived notions towards Blood Laws still remained, but this kind of scene at least dismissed the initial doubts they had possessed on the subject of her defection.

Schleya was probably no longer a wicked path person as the Emperor of Death proclaimed.

Otherwise, she wouldn't go as far as to heal her opponents.

Even righteous path experts didn't do that.

Many people who were angered had their expressions ease as they finally understood why the Emperor of Death decided to give her, the Young Blood Demoness, a chance.

Schleya returned towards Davis's side, clasping her hands to him as she inwardly thanked him for believing her.

Davis had his eyes widened when he saw her healing her opponents as he didn't expect it from the Blood Demoness. It was no wonder Mo Mingzhi would vouch for her.

"How does your healing technique work? More than a technique, I felt that it was a binding of some sort."

Davis curiously asked, causing Schleya to answer without any hesitation whatsoever.

"Indeed, by forcing a connection similar to karmic or hex bindings with the severed parts of my opponents, I am able to connect them back from where I severed them. This wouldn't work if I didn't encase their limbs with my blood energy when I severed them."

Davis's brows raised. She was doing that while battling? He hadn't noticed it since blood mixed, no, blended with blood. The only way he could've noticed was if he had his soul sense cover the battle stage. Nevertheless, he nodded and asked.

"So you planned to heal them even before you ripped them?"

Schleya's eyes brightened while a smile appeared underneath her crimson veil.

"Mhm. I learned it from someone great."

"…"

Davis couldn't help but recall his actions back then when he ripped her legs off and shoved a healing pill into her mouth.

Was that supposed to be a jab against him?

"Haha…"

He couldn't help but wryly chuckle before he spoke.

"I'm sure that some people have changed their biased opinion of you. However, even I am shocked to see you possess such high-level battle techniques, movement techniques, and healing techniques. Not only did you overwhelm them in cultivation but also techniques, allowing you to trample on them."

The way he saw it, wasn't she chased to dire straits by her power? How come she has so many powerful techniques and maneuverability? Did she rob the Blood Pledge Villa before leaving?
