Chapter 2213: Another Immortal
*Whoosh!~*
Davis arrived past the Alstreim Family’s Peak-Level Emperor Grade Defensive Formation as it was opened for him by the elders controlling the formation. The moment he entered the airspace of the capital, he saw Nadia and Ancestor Dian Alstreim in mid-air, watching a certain person hover in mid-air.
He wore a white-crimson robe, his sleeves flailing in the breeze as he flew from one place to another, merely looking as though he was enjoying sightseeing, all the while being stared to death by Nadia.
On top of having blonde hair, there were green strands laden here and there clung to his scalp, which made him look… quite fabulous. However, he still possessed a handsome face and trimmed beard, making him look quite suave, possibly even more of a lady’s man than Logan.
Davis arrived beside Nadia, reaching out his hand to caress her soft fur as he made her calm before blinking at this invader, wondering what he was doing as he had his immortal aura kept in check as though not wanting to harm the people. Even Nadia didn’t make a move as she considered this a sign of non-aggression despite this immortal being so close to the Mortal Hex Emperor Purple Palace, consequently posing a major threat to them.
“Ancestor?”
Davis turned to look at Ancestor Dian Alstreim, who appeared half-suspicious and half-forlorn. His prompt woke Ancestor Dian Alstreim out of his reverie, causing him to wryly smile.
“That person could be- “
Abruptly, they both turned their heads to the front as they saw that unknown immortal just a few meters away from them.
‘So fast…’
Ancestor Dian Alstreim was shocked while Davis held Nadia’s nape from letting her make a move instinctively. He had noticed from the way she trembled that the immortal was going to make a move, but he still didn’t sense any kind of energy surge from that immortal.
To his shock, that person had only used to wind to arrive in front of them.
Nonetheless, that person’s charming purple eyes, with their enigmatic gaze, fell from Ancestor Dian Alstreim to Nadia, shock reeling in his eyes before he gazed at Davis, noticing the blonde hair but sapphire eyes, yet his eyes still shone in approval.
“Are you that Emperor of Death?”
Davis didn’t answer. Instead, staring at the immortal in front of him with sharp eyes, noticing every detail, from facial expressions to his hand movements.
Not hearing an answer from Davis, the immortal merely smiled. However, it seemed like it was one of satisfaction.
“I’ve been listening to the conversations in this city. Words like ‘The Emperor of Death will protect us…’, ‘No one can defeat the Emperor of Death…’, ‘Our faith in him will not waver…’ was repeatedly said as people cowered while sensing my presence. It seems the people were warned to stay away from me because I’m an unknown immortal? Good, very good! This kind of quick response is praiseworthy!”
“However, what’s even more praiseworthy is there an existence who acts as a faith to the people. As long as you’re there, our people’s Will will not shatter.”
Davis, had his eyes narrowed, taking everything at face value as he was not calm enough to analyze, “You are…?”
Hearing Davis’s question, a prideful expression emerged on the immortal’s face as he stood straight like a rock despite embodying the carefree wind.
“Alstreim Family’s Founder, Alstreim Windstorm.”
“…!”
Davis and Ancestor Dian Alstreim became shocked even though they expected it somewhat after closely noticing the traits and features of the immortal character in front of them. However, just because they understood the other party was their Founder didn’t mean they had to nod and act reserved, or so Davis thought when Ancestor Dian Alstreim bowed his head with clasped hands.
“Founder! I am Dian Alstreim, one of the two remaining Ancestors of the Alstreim Family. We welcome you to our Alstreim Family!”
“Good!”
Alstreim Windstorm’s smile became more pronounced after Ancestor Dian Alstreim’s welcomed him. He once again took a good look around the Alstreim Family as though digesting its growth.
“I noticed that the Alstreim Family became more prominent than the time I left it. This isn’t in line with the declining state of the Fifty-Two Territories. Care to explain?”
“Founder,” Ancestor Dian Alstreim eagerly smiled and gestured towards Davis, “Before Davis arrived, our family was merely on the edge, and could have declined anytime as we were on our last legs, but after he arrived, everything changed. In a mere decade, he toppled my understanding and brought our Alstreim Family to the apex, equaling that of the Four Great Righteous Sects.”
Alstreim Windstorm’s eyes widened, “The reason being…?”
His expression caused Ancestor Dian Alstreim to feel extremely prideful as he gestured toward Davis.
“Not only is he talented in Death Laws, managing to control its insanity, but two of his wives are immortal inheritors from the Forsaken Phoenix Realm.”
“Oh?” Alstreim Windstorm’s mouth went agape as he seemed equally excited, “One of our youths finally managed to enter it!? Great! Marvelous! Ahahahaha!”
“Yes! Ahahaa-“
Abruptly, Ancestor Dian Alstreim stopped laughing as he noticed an unamused gaze.
Davis stared at Ancestor Dian Alstreim with reproachful eyes, causing the latter to freeze as he realized his mistake. However, Davis inwardly sighed and didn’t blame Ancestor Dian Alstreim for being too excited about meeting his revered Founder.
After all, although any male immortal could merely come here and claim to be Alstreim Family’s Founder, this person seemed quite genuine. Moreover, if two users of Enigmatic Heart Intent couldn’t find anything to doubt the so-called Founder in front of them, then it was likely that he was genuinely the Founder.
Besides, the information that Isabella and Shirley were immortal inheritors was practically known throughout the world. At the very least, the righteous path knew about his life as they saw him as a legendary character.
Alstreim Windstorm laughed without reserve, seemingly in an excellent mood.
Davis waited for him to stop, and that took ten whole seconds before he moved his lips.
“Being proud and satisfied with your descendant’s deeds is alright, but that doesn’t warrant you get a free past to be believed. Your accommodation will be arranged outside the capital for security reasons.”
Alstreim Windstorm’s smile left his face, his eyes blinking, “You don’t trust your Founder?”
