Divine Emperor Of Death Chapter 962

"Of course not!" Princess Isabella looked at Tia Alstreim in amusement, but her eyes imperceptibly flashed.
Obviously, she had heard what Tia Alstreim had said to Edgar Alstreim with her extraordinary Martial Sage Stage physical sense. As a sage, everything within her surroundings was within the realm of her domain. In this zone, she was even able to perceive the slightest change, including the expressions and healthy aura of everyone in this room.
She could sense that Edgar Alstreim was injured, in the sense that his dantian is crippled. She sensed the same for Lia Alstreim. However, she felt that Lia Alstreim was injured to a far more degree than Edgar Alstreim. Judging by her body's weakness, Princess Isabella mused that she had both her mid-dantian and meridians crippled, making it abnormally difficult for her to practice drawing or circulating energy in her meridians.
This made it so that no matter how hard she tried, it would be too difficult for Lia Alstreim to make progress in the easiest cultivation system!
Lower dantian was normally called dantian as it stored the basic form of energy for humans, the essence energy. The lower dantian stores essence energy, and the mid-dantian, which is located in the middle of the chest, stores battle aura and martial energy. This made it so that if the mid-dantian was ruptured, one's body would become enormously weak, almost returning them to a mortal's state if it weren't for the presence of the lower dantian and the upper dantian.
However, for Lia Alstreim, both of her meridians and mid-dantian seemed to be crippled, making her weaker than a normal Essence Gathering Cultivator. Almost any kind of blow from the people in this room, even a blow from the little Tia Alstreim's full strength, would result in her flesh possibly exploding if she got off-guard.
However, everyone could see that there were so many accessories and jewels on Lia Alstreim's figure. They were all defensive artifacts of the Eighth Stage, and there was even a killing array of the Eighth Stage in the form of a bracelet! The killing array appeared as it was already filled with complete energy and only needed a cultivator to activate it.

From this, it could be seen that Elder Havle Alstreim regarded his daughter Lia Alstreim as his everything!
Princess Isabella could also detect that there was a life in Remora Ethren's womb. If she concentrated, she felt that she could even hear those small heartbeats from the distance she stood.
She was able to find this and deduce these all in a moment. That's why she was also surprised that Nadia was able to keep hiding from her when they sparred. Needless to say, she felt that it was just for a while until she broke into the Ninth Stage. At that time, she figured that Nadia would become unable to hide in front of her physical sense.
Princess Isabella came to understand a bit about Elder Havle Alstreim with this outlook.
However...
'Whisper of Fate Phenomenon... What is that?' Princess Isabella mused in confusion, 'Besides, Alchemist Davis is still that person? What does that mean?'
While Princess Isabella was wondering, Edgar Alstreim patted his daughter's back, "Don't worry. The Conferred Queen will teach you many things about swordplay. In the meantime, your father will show this brother around the house, so don't go about worrying the Conferred Queen, okay?"
Tia Alstreim nodded her head twice before she sweetly smiled and ran towards Princess Isabella as she re-summoned the sword into her hand.
Edgar Alstreim looked at them as they left the hall. He didn't doubt that the Conferred Queen heard anything because he had rarely come into contact with Martial Sage Stage Experts, and there were no Martial Sage Stage Experts in the Alstreim Family for him to generalize with their abilities.
The ladies all disappeared, and the remaining ones to stay back were the three men.
Elder Havle Alstreim possessed an incredulous expression on his face. He slowly turned to look at Alchemist Davis, "Is this truly happening? The revered Dragon Queen is actually teaching my granddaughter? You have to be kidding me, right?"...

"What can I say?" Davis chuckled, "Young Mistress is fond of kids...? Well, I think Young Mistress is just relieving her boredom."
"Makes sense..." Elder Havle Alstreim nodded his head before he hesitated for a bit.
"Does Alchemist Davis think that I can go watch them practice? Won't I be a nuisance in the Training Hall?"
"Unless you stare at Young Mistress inappropriately, I doubt that anything untoward would happen. I might have to warn you, though... Young Mistress's physical sense is really frightening that she once caught me staring at her... You know... Then Young Mistress broke my face with a single punch."
Elder Havle Alstreim gulped, "I'll be careful."
He didn't doubt Davis's words even though the possibility that it was made up could clearly be high. After all, there were even Imagery Stones that projected the slap Conferred Queen gave to Weiss Alstreim. It was a clear resounding slap that made the other men in the vicinity cringe while holding their cheeks.
Even he, who viewed it through a soundless Imagery Stone, could feel the impact!
Elder Havle Alstreim left, clearly heading towards the Training Hall.
Davis looked at his disappearing silhouette, wondering why he was left alone with his grandfather as if it was preordained. He understood that Elder Havle Alstreim and Edgar Alstreim spoke through soul transmission, but he was unaware of the content. He could only muse that it was them worrying about their Tia Alstreim being injured in the sparring session.
After all, Conferred Queen Isabella had just recently progressed to the Martial Sage Stage. If she was unable to control herself, and accidentally thrust out the sword she is using with more force, wouldn't their little and adorable Tia Alstreim become critically injured or even die!?
And the worst case was that even if Tia Alstreim really did die, they would still be unable to do nothing to the Conferred Queen. Even if they gave their own lives as a sacrifice to ask for justice in front of Ancestor Dian Alstreim, it still wouldn't be enough. Hence, Davis could tell that these two felt that prevention was better than cure, and also realize that there is no medicine for regret with their experiences.
They were intent on at least having one of them on the lookout for untoward occurrences.
'Careful and cautious indeed... but they way Elder Havle Alstreim used to go about is a bit... dangerous...'
Davis felt that this was also why Elder Havle Alstreim acted as if he were going to check out Princess Isabella when he was truly worried about his granddaughter. This way, perhaps Elder Havle Alstreim thought that he could avoid offending them.
After all, if Elder Havle Alstreim straightaway told Davis that he was afraid that the Conferred Queen would harm his granddaughter, wouldn't that be basically undermining their reputation and offending them by not trusting their ability in using their cultivation? That would be like a slap to the face to the people who were born and bred in this cultivation world.
He wouldn't be particularly offended by this statement, but he would indeed be offended if Elder Havle Alstreim asked something inappropriate about Princess Isabella.
