Divine Emperor of Death

Two days before the Soul Emperor had his seclusion disturbed, Davis returned to Princess Isabella's room after talking with his grandparent.

He saw three beauties seated on the large bed, turning to look at him with various grins on their faces while he stood at the entrance, just having pushed the big door open.

Davis couldn't help but nod in satisfaction, 'Ah, I'm a lucky bastard indeed...'

He walked in as the door closed behind him. 

"Beauties, please don't eat me up..."

"Oh~ That's too bad then~" Natalya echoed as she winked at Evelynn.

Evelynn rolled her eyes, "Isn't it the opposite? Sit with us... We've been waiting."

Davis flew before he sat on the south corner of the bed. While Evelynn was on the left, Natalya was on the right; Princess Isabella sat north. They looked at him in silence, making him feel awkward, but it didn't show on his face.

Now that he thought about this situation... wasn't this the first time all three had gathered to talk normally? Their cultivation sessions always interfered with each other's free time, and the last time they gathered was when the Towering Cloud Hall and Falling Snow Sect came to claim the nectar from Princess Isabella.

Nevertheless, seeing them looking at him like he had killed their father, he could no longer take it.

"What were you all talking about?"

"How to stop you from taking more women..." 

Three voices echoed out in sync, making Davis a bit amused, "Aren't you all unified when it comes to this matter?"

"Of course," Princess Isabella echoed with a smirk, "Don't forget. Other than Shirley Ashton, you are not allowed to accept another woman. This is a decision made by the three of us, you understand?"

Davis became taken aback. He looked left and right and saw that they wore smiles on their faces. It was unknown what they talked about, but it seems like they all knew and accepted him marrying Shirley Ashton. 

He didn't ask what brought about this change since he felt that they might take back what they said, and simply yet shamelessly nodded his head. However, looking at their expressions suddenly become stiffer than ice, he simultaneously shook his head.

"Mhm? You dare to slight us?" Princess Isabella possessed anger all over her face.

"Stop saying something you don't mean..."

Princess Isabella pursed her lips with an angered expression before she let out a giggle, "How do you always see through me?"

That's right. She was just teasing, but they were all one with this plan. Likely, they planned to tease him together but didn't expect that he would nod. However...

"Heart Intent..." Davis avoided their gaze before reconnecting, "It allows me to know what kind of emotions you are feeling to a degree..."

Princess Isabella, Evelynn, and Natalya all had their eyes wide, their mouths opening agape. 

There was such a thing!?

While they were reeling in disbelief, Davis continued.

"Due to our soul's disparity, you all won't sense a thing... Isabella, even your Martial Sage Cultivation fails to sense that I am probing you."

Princess Isabella became taken aback before she shook her head, her expression blushing a little, "I can vaguely sense it, but I thought you were just catching a glimpse of my figure occasionally but was not sure..."

Davis became flabbergasted. If she sensed, why didn't she tell him so? Then he recalled that he didn't ask.

Wait!? Doesn't this mean that she was okay with him sneaking a peek at her figure every time he probed?

"But this feeling, I sensed something similar from Ancestor Dian Alstreim..." Princess Isabella suddenly uttered.

"Mhm?" Davis became confused, "You mean to say that Ancestor Dian Alstreim can also use Heart Intent and used it on you?"

"Yes, possibly... Although I can sense this unique soul wavelength a bit vaguely with my physical senses, I can tell that it's stronger than yours. He seemed to have probed me when I was acting... I just thought it was a simple probe to see my true expression since he had only done it once but to think that it was Heart Intent..."

Davis narrowed his eyes, "Could it be that old fox played along?"

He felt that since the Alstreim Family possessed records of Heart Intent in their library, it was possible for their Ancestor to have comprehended it.

Princess Isabella and the two of them descended into silence for a while before the former spoke.

"Unlikely, because I was only probed once. Not much could be known from that. However, I don't know if Natalya was probed or not. If he did, he should know that Natalya's fear was faked." Princess Isabella solemnly replied.

"I'm sor-"

"Everyone, you are thinking too deep..." Evelynn suddenly spoke, interrupting Natalya's apology while garnering their attention.

"If Ancestor Dian Alstreim used Heart Intent on all of us, there is no way Davis would remain ignorant. Although I don't know how this Heart Intent works, I believe our husband would've known if it's used on most of us."

Princess Isabella became taken aback before she smiled, "That's right... How could Ancestor Dian Alstreim easily evade Davis's senses? Likely, he must've been already wary about Davis finding out, and only used on me, and that too once to know my emotions."

"Truly a cautious old fox..." She giggled.

Davis looked at Evelynn, feeling moved. Such a mistake, not noticing an important ability of Ancestor Dian Alstreim. It would really have been his undoing. The problem with schemes was that if he were to be seamlessly counter-schemed, then it would be an instant game over. That's why he would have to take almost everything into account!

Fortunately, he had Fallen Heaven. Otherwise, his intestines would've already turned green from regret.

Meanwhile, Natalya was feeling dull. Even if she did nothing, she refused to be a weakness, a burden that pulled down Davis. That's why she apologized, but Evelynn saved her from embarrassment, causing her to cast a grateful look at her.

"Thank you, big sister."

"Stop..." Evelynn waved her hand with a wry smile, "Even if you had done something wrong, it was our husband who pulled you into that act at that time. Even I had no idea what was happening, so if you failed, it's simply our husband's responsibility."

"Isn't that right, husband?"

Evelynn cast a look at Davis, causing him to sincerely nod, "You're absolutely right. Next time, I will be careful."

Davis looked at Evelynn, who seemed to be acting mature. He inwardly smiled because he knew that she would react the same as Natalya did if she felt that she was at fault.

'Being a big sister is a tough job...' He felt sorry but cheered for her.

Princess Isabella's ink-black pupils sharply gazed around, seemingly seeing through the intricacies of a harem. A smile appeared on her face before she spoke.

"Big sis, can I also call you that?"

Evelynn's body slightly shook before she imperceptibly smiled, "If you really want to, then you can..."

"Alright, big sis..." Princess Isabella giggled, her smile almost blossoming into a flower, "You two can call me third sis then..."

"Third sister..." Both Evelynn and Natalya voiced out, seemingly becoming happier.

Davis slightly had his eyes wide as he saw his women be harmonious, 'Ah, how long have I longed for this day...?'

He couldn't help but inwardly sigh. They were so good to him.

"Everyone," Princess Isabella abruptly called out, "Our second sis has successfully reached Peak-Level Martial Ascendance Stage, so it's only a matter of time before she reaches Martial Master Stage."

"Oh, Natalya, I forgot to congratulate you..." Davis smiled as he looked at the blushing Natalya.

"It's all thanks to third sister..." Natalya shyly replied.

Perhaps being treated like a younger sister, she like this feeling of being spoiled.

From Low-Level Gold Stage to Peak-Level Martial Ascendance Stage, she crossed seven levels to reach this stage after absorbing the blood essences with Princess Isabella's help. Therefore, she felt incredibly grateful to Princess Isabella. Without her help, absorbing all that much would've caused her to explode.

Contrary to what she thought, that she would be looked down upon by the Poison Queen and the Dragon Queen she envisioned in her mind, they were so good to her, causing her to feel immensely moved.

But the next moment, her expression froze as she heard Princess Isabella's voice.

"That's right... Davis. Natalya says that she wants her little sister to become your woman... What do you think?"

Princess Isabella kept a vague smile on her face as Davis's expression froze.

While Evelynn blinked as this was the first time she heard this, Natalya echoed as she blushed, "Third sis... Don't bring that up... Husband already said that it depends..."

"Depends?" Princess Isabella acted confused, "Depends on what?"

Natalya bit her lips, "Feelings..."

Abruptly, all three of them pointed towards the south, "That's what he said..."

Davis's lips twitched before he wryly shook his head, "Aren't you all in sync again...?"

"Hmph! We at least deserve to vent our frustrations!" Princess Isabella shot her tongue at him in a playful manner.

"I'll vent mine in you then..." Davis echoed in a low voice.

"Shameless!" Evelynn went crimson red.

Princess Isabella and Natalya didn't understand at first but looking at Evelynn; their imaginations quickly found out what he meant.

"You scoundrel!" Princess Isabella blushed red before she flew at him, her fist ready to punch.

Davis became taken aback before he captured her wrist.

'Huh!? No strength?'

Feeling that there was no power behind her attack, he threw her to the side. His body quickly moved to tower above her, and his other hand quickly moved to capture her other wrist, pinning her down on the bed.

"You!" Princess Isabella's eyes shook as she found herself in a vulnerable position. Her face that was already blushing became further red, making her immensely alluring.

However, she didn't retaliate but screamed, "Davis, do you believe that I'll throw you off right now!?"

"Oh, I believe you..." Davis confidently smiled, "That is... if you want to embarrass your man in front of two women, go ahead."

Princess Isabella's gaze shook. She possessed a retaliating expression on her face for a few seconds as she stared at him, but it became hesitant before all forms of struggle died down. Only a few words escaped from her mouth in a low and shaky voice. 

"This is not fair..."

Davis smiled. How could this woman bear to embarrass him truly? If she did, her point of wanting him to shine in front of all the people, including her sisters, would become meaningless!

However, this was not a battle of strength, nor wits but a battle of who cared the most about the other, and he lost.

She's the one who seemed to be creating trouble, yet in truth, she was the one who maintained a jovial atmosphere. If he needed his Heart Intent to see this, he would feel embarrassed of himself!
