Divine Emperor of Death

In a certain room within the Royal Castle of the Loret Empire.

There was a woman with shoulder-length black hair stretching her waist, her body bending while displaying the flexibility of her bones.

She exercised for a while, sweating a lot in the process before dropping her slightly plump butt on the bed, taking deep breaths as her breasts heaved.

With a few amounts of deep breaths taken, her heaving finally stopped but her breaths were still heavy yet serene.

This woman was none other than Mo Mingzhi, who was led into the Royal Castle by Davis and brought into a room by a few castle maids on behalf of the former's command.

Having nothing to do, she slightly browsed her surroundings before deciding to exercise, and upon doing so, discovered the pleasant changes in her body, caused by the so-called heaven and earth energy.

Mo Mingzhi's lips slightly curved as she thought back to the dumbfounded expressions of the maids when she said that she was Davis Loret's woman.

She didn't know who exactly Davis was in the Royal Castle initially but from the talkative nature of the maids, she managed to garner some information.

'Crown Prince of the Loret Empire?' Mo Mingzhi rasped her left arm with her right index finger as she held her arms below her breasts.

She had already managed to garner the situation in the royal family with her tactful questions. Her initial conclusion graded this royal family as an amiable one.

'How on earth...' Mo Mingzhi slightly paused as she realized that it was no longer earth but a vast cultivation world.

She did not correct her sentence but continued, '... did Tian Long manage to change his face, no, his entire body and pose as Davis Loret? This doesn't make sense...'

Although she more or less believed that Davis was Tian Long, there weren't many logical pieces of evidence backing this fact.

As an investigator, she felt ashamed of herself for relying on what her heart told rather than her brain.

'Could it be that he transmigrated and possessed the original Davis Loret as mentioned in those silly webnovels?' Her eyes mocked herself while she was unaware that she was close to the truth.

Her expression suddenly turned solemn.

'There is some truth in those webnovels. For example, the cultivation world...'

However, what was the idea behind those cultivation novels. It was none other than ancient Chinese History. She had no inkling if the history of Chinese Gods had to do anything with this world.

However, she knew that there was no Heavenly Emperor and the likes from the questions she posed to do Davis during their travel.

'In any case, I should protect the secret of his real identity.' She closed her eyes and nodded her head.

Feeling thirsty, she opened her eyes and turned to look at the refreshments and food that were placed on the table.

She stood up and walked towards the table. Once she stood in front of the table, she smelled the appetizing fragrance, making her stomach growl in hunger.

She patted her lean midriff which was not covered by her yoga clothes. Smiling lightly, she took the vase towards her right and poured the contents into a silver cup.

She took the cup towards her face and drank, her face brightening and her body felt like it was rejuvenating from fatigue.

"As expected of water filled with heaven and earth energy!" Mo Mingzhi smiled and placed the cup on the table.

With this final exercise of hers, she had completed her rehabilitation and withstood the addiction of drugs, leaving it in the dust.

While traveling to this Royal Castle for half a month, Davis had already taught her the basics of cultivation.

On how she should first learn to meditate without allowing any thoughts to disturb her.

On how she should grasp the underlying meaning in the cultivation manuals before, and not only focus on the instructions of the circulation method.

He had also imparted some of his cultivation experience to her, even reminding her to be diligent and not make haste in cultivation.

Of course, all this was because of her constant pestering. She was not at all afraid that he would leave her behind as long as she doesn't go overboard.

In this half a month, she had grasped how to make her mind feel empty but was only able to maintain for a minute or so, but she knew that was enough to find the meridians in her body to circulate energy.

In fact, the heaven and earth energy present here played a huge role in her part to make her be able to sense her meridians which were located throughout her body.

All that was left for her to explore her circulation route to the center and find her dantian which was located near the abdomen.

At least, that was what she heard from Davis's own mouth.

'He is so caring towards me...' Mo Mingzhi's heart fluttered, ignoring how he had rejected her advances while treating her with some distance.

The smile that was on her face gradually receded before she thought, 'I should try practicing cultivation in a few days. As for him...'

Mo Mingzhi pondered over this matter, actually, pondered over a lot.

'He is a prince, not only a prince but a crown prince with a lot of perks. He should be able to marry a lot of women without restrictions since he is next in line to the throne.'

'Even if he is not, he should still be and to marry some amount of women... I've already decided to become his mistress, and he would more or less acceptable if I keep being stubborn, even reluctantly if I insist till my death.'

'The only obstacle then would be his wife. I don't know her attitude towards me... Will she accept or...'

'... Silence me?'

Mo Mingzhi narrowed her eyes, 'It's possible.'

She had numerous scenarios pop up in her head as if she were detective trying to rebuild the crime scene.

A hazy womanly silhouette whom she recognized as Davis's wife either made it difficult for her to live in the Royal Castle or planned to kill her every time she had the chance.

Mo Mingzhi facepalmed herself. 

'Why am I thinking in this direction? However, if his wife really tried to kill me...'

She pursed her lips, '...Then what should I do?'

'Stay low for the time being until I become strong? No!'

'That is too long! By that time, more women might surround him. I, at the least, can't be far away in terms of his lovers.'

Mo Mingzhi's expression suddenly froze. 

A few seconds of silence passed before a wry smile lit up her face, 'Without realizing, I've already degraded myself...'

'Maybe such is the fate of a woman who is bent on a married man.'

Mo Mingzhi curled her lips as she mocked herself again, no longer feeling sure of her future.

She stood and stretched again, removing the demotivating thoughts from her head. 

She silently cheered for herself, 'Mingzhi, you're older than you think you are! It's time you make him see you as a woman! Have some confidence!'

At this time, she heard a knock on her door, prompting her to look at the source. 

Various thoughts popped up in her mind as she turned cautious, her eyes flashed wanting to see who it was behind the door but couldn't.

After a silent pause, she moved towards the door and opened it, only to see a woman who wore a white lab coat.

"Nice to meet you fellow earthling, my name is Meng Ying."

Mo Mingzhi's face became blank as she turned stunned, "Huh?"
