Divine Emperor of Death-Novel

Chapter 1503 - Three-Eyed White Serpents

Davis and Nyoran hid behind a mountain peak as soon as they sensed the undulations of the Three-Eyed White Serpents who were right on a valley.

An early bird catches the worm, but it seemed like that wasn’t the case here as they were late, which made them safe from being entrapped. They watched a group of thirteen Three-Eyed White Serpents feast on human flesh, sinking their fangs into the crimson meat as they bit and chewed.

As much as they were snakes, they didn’t seem to just swallow the entire body.

"Damn! This human’s blood is delicious. He probably trains in Blood Laws."

"Ahaha, we must thank these stupid humans for enriching our meal. They aren’t like the humans we breed. They taste like crap but these ones, mhm~ yummy~"

Two Peak-Level King Beast Stage Three-Eyed White Serpents conversed as they feasted upon human meat. The one who first spoke was a white-scaled male Three-Eyed White Serpent, and the latter was a white-scaled and green-eyed female Three-Eyed White Serpent who seemed to take deep joy in devouring the bowels of a human.

"Ple- Please~ Kill me..."

It seemed that the human was still alive. He coughed out blood while the female Three-Eyed White Serpent held him down with her long white-scaled body. Her body alone stretched thirty meters long. However, she was only a meter thick, which made it easier for her to wrap her prey around her body.

"Can’t do, you crass man who called me a s.l.u.t~"

She hissed and brought her fangs to his neck, puncturing a deep hole in his body before she began to suck the blood out of him as if her teeth were a syringe. Blood poured into her hissing mouth while her green-eyes became rolled back as if she was feeling ecstatic.

"Fu- F.u.c.k.i.n.g slu-"

*Drkk!~*

The female Three-Eyed White Serpent pulled her head away and tore apart his head in the process. While having his head in her mouth, she appeared baffled.

"Ah, he died..."

"Well, his provocation served its purpose. Haha~" The male Three-Eyed White Serpent replied as he swallowed his human meat whole.

Like this, about three dozen humans were being feasted on by these thirteen Three-Eyed White Serpents.

Davis saw this brutal scene before he turned his head to look at Nyoran.

"You feel the same as them about human meat, right?"

Nyoran raised her brows.

"I won’t deny that I get drunk by human blood, but are you offended, human?"

"No, I was just curious. As long as you don’t eat my people, I’m not bothered, but treating humans as livestock when they’re innocent, that doesn’t quite sit well with me."

"Well, you treat us like livestock as well, or am I wrong?"

Nyoran smiled while Davis nodded his head.

"Yeah, that’s why I’m going to turn a blind eye to it unless I see it for myself."

"Huh? It’s not like you can do anything about it in the first place. Moreover, the humans we breed like cattle are descendants of humans who courted death by offending us. It’s not like we go to the righteous path territories and haul them in. Besides, the humans that we breed and eat cannot even speak the Sky Word Language since they haven’t learned and can’t think for themselves, which makes them worse than Mortal Rank Species Magical Beasts."

Nyoran spoke, her tone condescending towards humans, but as soon as she saw Davis’s sapphire eyes, an exasperated glint appeared in her eyes.

"However, since I would owe you if you manage to kill that Ryzenir over there, if you ask me to stop eating human meat, then I will comply."

Davis raised his brows at her in surprise before he shook her head, "No need. I also eat magical beast meat and love them. We are food for each other, but that doesn’t mean that we can’t communicate and interact with each other in an amicable way when required, like this moment. However, I also understand that there are those who cannot think the same, so it doesn’t matter if you don’t understand my thoughts."

He still fed Nadia human meat.

She liked it, and he didn’t see anything wrong with it unless she started blindly attacking his family or innocents, which he was convinced that she wouldn’t. In fact, he felt that he was letting human bodies go to waste if he didn’t feed them to someone like Nadia after he killed them.

"I don’t understand what you mean by ’this moment’ because I’d probably eat you if you were to die here..."

Nyoran looked at him and licked her luscious lips, but to Davis, it felt awkward as her meaning sounded different. He wryly smiled and put his mask back on.

"Well, I’ll take that as a compliment."

They both turned to look at their target, a fifty-meter-long white-scaled Three-Eyed White Serpent. Like all the serpents present here, he possessed the same features other than his size. It seemed that he was the only Low-Level Emperor Beast Stage Magical Beast while all the others were at King Beast Stage, ranging from High-Level to Peak-Level.

Davis was quite overjoyed while looking at the lineup like they were born to give him their soul essences today. They were just what he needed.

"Fortunately for us, it seems that they have already come out of hiding to ambush these humans. Their illusions in this valley could’ve blinded and severely impeded our strength, but that isn’t the case anymore. Now, it’s our time to ambush them, and what better timing could there be while they’re focused on feasting?"

"True."

Davis smiled at Nyoran and patted her shoulder, "You take care of the little snakes while I take care of your target of revenge."

Nyoran inwardly shook as she felt his hand on her shoulder. He took his hand away when she suddenly reached out her hand and captured his wrist.

"Wait! I think we have the best chance to kill Ryzenir if I go as bait and attract all of their attention. Human, with your concealment capability, you have the best chance of killing him in an instant. As for the others, we can kill them anytime we want."

"Do you trust me? You do realize if I never turn up, you’re going to be violated by that perverted snake, right...?"

"Heh! Impossible!" Nyoran sneered, "I’m fast enough to escape, and I’ll leave your name behind if you betray me, human."

"Don’t ridicule yourself. Speed doesn’t topple illusions unless you’re immensely confident of getting to him before he casts the illusion or spontaneously breaking the illusion after he casts it..."

Davis narrowed his eyes, to which Nyoran dodged his gaze as she let go of his hand, indirectly telling him that she wasn’t quite powerful enough to break illusions even though her offensive prowess and perception were higher.

This spoke volumes about the illusionary prowess of the Three-Eyed White Serpent.

"Human, if you can place your trust in me, then I can place trust in you too. If the ambush fails, be careful of the opening of their third eye. That’s what makes their illusions terrifying..."

Nyoran took a deep breath and warned before she awaited his answer.

Davis looked at her dark red eyes before he nodded, understanding that she truly wanted to kill this Ryzenir.

He turned to look at the Three-Eyed White Serpents and saw that the third eye over the middle of their foreheads seemed to be closed. It appeared like a vertical slit and, when opened, would instantly cast the one it gazed at into a world of illusions.

While he was checking out their features, Nyoran left from his side, moving towards another direction so as to take away attention from his direction. She soon reached the skies where it would become difficult to spot her amidst this foggy atmosphere that limited one’s senses.

Due to the valley, the Three-Eyed White Serpent had their range of vision already narrowed to the skies and two other directions.

Nyoran gained distance till she reached a kilometer in the air. She transformed into a Dark Moon Crow and flipped upside down before she skydived. Her wings slid through the air, seamlessly cutting it. There were signs of space trembling as she took off with her speed.

*Whoosh!~*

There was no sonic boom. Just the sound of air whistling could be heard before four serpent heads flew into the skies, their regal white-scaled necks spurting with blood as if four fountains newly emerged.

"Princess Nyoran, you dare!?"

An immensely enraged voice echoed out with a bit of disbelief. New ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄhapters are published on Noᴠelꜰire

"Fool! You had this coming when you provoked me~ All of you will die!"

Nyoran’s voice was full of rage as she flapped her wings and shot into the skies, gaining distance before she flipped mid-air as her large body easily maneuvered, her sixty-five meters wingspan striking fear into the hearts of the other Three-Eyed White Serpents before she propelled herself back to them, intending to kill as a dark hue appeared on her wings.

However, Three-Eyed White Serpents’ third eyes all opened as their instincts screamed at them to do so. Their serpent eyes flashed with a green light while a unique aura spread out of them.

Nyoran strafed to the side as one of her wings bent as if she was drifting in the air. She missed her targets, but the green globule of poison shot past her and landed on the mountain where a chunk instantly corroded, revealing a stray yet hidden magical beast that also got instantly corroded along with it.

No one seemed to pay heed to that helpless magical beast.

"Tch!~"

Nyoran clicked her tongue in annoyance as she felt like she failed to kill at least two more of them. She knew that there would be no way she could sneak attack Ryzenir, so that’s why she decided to target the underlings, but since it was obvious that she could no longer target them, she turned around and thrust herself at Ryzenir!

Ryzenir also didn’t seem to bother with talking or reasoning as he attacked her. His poison gland generated enough poison to completely corrode or even break down the cells of Martial Overlords! The poison globule ejected from his fangs shot towards Nyoran in a straight line.

She abruptly stopped her flight and shot up when the poison globule shot past her, missing her by a slim margin before she flipped and flapped her wings towards him.

Feathers from her wings shot towards Ryzenir while he kept letting out poison projectiles. It quickly became a shootout between them, dark feathers and green poison clashing and corroding. Their projectiles let out to injure them didn’t serve their intended purpose but only ended up destroying the surroundings. As for the other Three-Eyed White Serpents, one of them died in the crossfire while the remaining six Three-Eyed White Serpents managed to escape till a distance.

They didn’t completely escape but again opened their third eyes, their otherworldly green pupils casting an illusion on Nyoran again!

Nyoran felt her speed slow down as she found herself falling into an illusion. She quickly came out of it by overpowering it with her energy, but then her pupils dilated.

*Thump!~*

It was only a minute moment of distraction, but she felt herself falling into an illusion again!

The third eye of Ryzenir opened as a faint illusory wave targeted Nyoran!

This time, the pull towards the world of illusions was even more excruciating than the last.

Ryzenir’s third eye was such a large orb that it appeared as if it could hypnotize one with just its shape alone, and the wave of illusive undulations it sent her way made her completely dizzy as she felt like she could descend into a predatory illusion at any time.

However, she suddenly witnessed Ryzenir’s head being severed from his long serpent body.

The wave of dizziness quickly went away from her before she saw the black-robed masked man have a golden-black spear on one hand and Ryzenir’s snakehead on the other.

*Crack!~*

The dark blade of the spear the masked man held abruptly shattered!
