Divine Emperor Of Death Chapter 146
Advertisement
The Golden-Horned Wyvern landed down in a grand fashion, awe-inspiring the onlookers as well as the Cauldon Family members.
Davis felt that this has grand entrance had gone way overboard but didn't blame the Golden-Horned Wyvern for it, so he gritted his teeth and got down solemnly, well prepared to get insulted.
It didn't even take a few seconds before the elders of the Cauldon Family came buzzing out like flies with smiling faces.
"Welcome back Prince Davis, we've been expecting you for quite some time now." An elder said as he bowed.
The other elders also bowed and greeted Davis.
Davis nodded solemnly, but his heart was beating disorderedly. Even he couldn't forgive his mistake that easily, what else could be said about her own family.
Evelynn jumped down from the Wyvern, and her appearance became visible to the elders.
The moment their gaze and sense landed on Evelynn, their faces became incomparably ugly to behold. But it quickly reverted as they kept their smiles back.
One of the elders quickly uttered, "Come back inside, we'll continue to talk there!"
Evelynn nodded and followed that elder back to the manor.
The other elders hurriedly surrounded Davis.
Davis froze seeing the numerous elders surround him, and resigned himself to get hammered down.
"Prince Davis, don't be disheartened, let's go inside and talk!"
"Yes, it isn't good if we keep you waiting outside."
The others elders all agreed and nodded there heads with a forced smile on their faces.
'They're unexpectedly giving me face by not beating me up right outside... Time and time again, this really demonstrates the power of the Royal Family." Davis sighed while nodding his head. He then followed them inside.
In the Hall, Evelynn arrived and stood there silently without displaying a single expression on her face.

Numerous youths of the Cauldon Family who noticed the commotion outside also arrived at the Hall and stood around the corners to view the spectacle.
When they looked at Evelynn, some of them felt pity, while some of them gloated secretly, but none spoke a word to her, including her so-called cousins in the Cauldon Family, who were obviously indifferent to her status.
A figure quickly ran through the crowd, and hurriedly knelt down while crying like a fool, "Uwaaa!"
Evelynn's expression changed, she could no longer keep her indifferent face. She instantly lifted up Maisy and hugged her in a tight embrace.
Davis entered and saw the spectacle, his nervous heart relaxed for some reason. Maybe it was because he saw someone care for her.
Grinning slightly, he was happy for her and adopted an optimistic mindset, 'Heh! If they're gonna attack, then I'll just treat it as a Body Tempering Cultivation session!'
Suddenly, the crowd withdrew their hushed voices and went silent as a figure arrived with its eyes wide open, its face incomparably worried. Only bawling sounds could be heard from the middle of the hall.
The Family Head approached the sound as the crowd parted while his face turned increasingly worse. When the family head's gaze landed on Evelynn, he froze as his pupils dilated.
Extending his hands, he slowly walked towards Evelynn with a dumbfounded face. Various emotions ran through his heart, compelling his legs to go closer.
...His hands trembled violently when he saw his daughter's severed arm.
Erupting with a huge anger on his face, he pointed towards Davis, "You!!..."
"Family Head, we advise you to take actions considering the future of our family." Before he could even say anything, an elder beside him instantly interrupted with a solemn face.

"That's right, we advise you to think about our family's future before taking any decision!"
The family head froze, his face stifled with anger. He turned to look at the elders beside him while his eyes turned bloodshot.
It took a while before he calmed himself and glanced at the elders one by one.
The elders trembled a little with their faces steeled, feeling the family head's stern gaze, but they somehow held their ground.
The family head kept nodding his head as he turned to look at Davis, but before he could even say anything, he was interrupted again by the elders.
"Prince Davis, we are sure that some kind of mishap must've happened during the travel, but you don't need to take it to heart."
"Right, mishaps occur all the time, and this was just an unfortunate accident."
"Don't be disheartened, just treat it as a bad dream." An elder said as he glanced in the direction of Evelynn.
"Right, if the prince feels remorseful, he will just marry one of our grand-daughters." Another elder agreed with the previous elder as he had a profound smile on his face.
"Well said, the prince is a responsible person, and will adhere to the words given by the Royal Family." The other elders took some sides and hurriedly agreed while they kept nodding their heads.
"Good! Good! You all! Very Good!!" The Family Head smiled with a murderous gaze. He felt like killing these bastards who were one generation above him, but above all, he felt disappointment in his heart.
He worked his life for the family and all he gets are a group of power-hungry backstabbing elders?
He suddenly started to laugh out loud, "I wondered why you people never try to listen to my words? I wasn't sure, but now, I understand."
Flicking his sleeves with a harrumph, he approached his daughter with a sad expression on his face. He held her bandaged arms and felt like crying.
Plopping down on his knees, he moved her bandaged arm and placed it on his forehead, "Evelynn, father has disappointed you..."
He felt regret! All he wanted was his daughter to have a bright future, but his daughter came back to him as a cripple.
He knew that using the excuse, that she is a cripple, these old foxes have spontaneously decided on sending their grand-daughters to be the bride for the prince.
He should've expected it, or rather one should say that he placed a lot of trust on these old foxes.
Seeing her father who was a strict individual in her childhood, now, purely care for her, losing all pretence and the bearing of a Family Head, she felt like bawling out her emotions but somehow calmed herself down.
She held his shoulders with her right hand and shook her head as she smiled, "You have not disappointed me, father."
Evan Cauldon glanced up and felt even more guilt, thinking that his daughter was such an angel.
Evelynn lifted up her face and looked up at the spectacle which looked disgusting to behold.
While she was consoling her father, the elders were busy introducing their grand-daughters to Davis.
"Evelynn, can I kill these old bastards?" An incomparably cold voice resounded out, shocking the entire family to the core.
