One Princess in particular, the 3rd Princess, more intently looked at this 1st Layer Core Formation Realm. She was one of the few in the Royal Family lucky enough to be born with a high talent for cultivation, and had even joined the sa Sect as her Elder Sister of a different mother.
For so reason, this man who she was certain she had never t before appeared oddly familiar...
In truth, on the 2nd Bombing Day, the 3rd Royal Princess, Mi Quixan, was captured by vile figures of the Demonic Faction while in Core Sect Branch #34. In that Branch, she was within the Top 10 strongest rankings, but in the face of so many Demonic Faction powerhouse, she was little more than a helpless chick.
However, just as Demonic Faction scum were about to do sothing unforgivable and sully her body, a man bathed in dark golden light descended to her Core Sect. And with a casual wave of his hands, he erased every Demonic Faction Disciple in a radius of tens of thousands of miles.
This simple action of his cleared up not only that Core Sect Branch but also the dozens of lower-level Branches subordinate to it.
It was incredible. A feat of the gods. Subli beyond compare.
And at the center of it all, sitting on the ground with torn-up robes, was a woman of remarkable beauty. The 3rd Princess Mi Quixan.
Noticing sothing up with her little sister, 2nd Princess Ku Quixan asked, "Is sothing the matter, Mi? You seem lost in thought... Could it be because of that handso young man eldest sister brought back with her?"
Snapping out of it, Mi Quixan said, "Quit speaking nonsense."
"Ho?" Ku Quixan grinned, realizing that she found sothing amusing to entertain her. "I can’t believe our little Mi Mi is actually interested in a man. Will the sky fall tomorrow??"
Mi Quixan rolled her eyes, though still couldn’t take them off of Zar’s relaxed visage.
[Mi Quixan (4th Layer Deity Transformation) 152/2150/4950]
’This girl who can’t look away from has talent just a little inferior to Master,’ Zar thought while letting said Master explain her reasoning for allowing him to tag along. ’After a few fortuitous encounter, likely Alchemy related, Master’s Maximum Lifespan increased to the 6000 range. Perhaps sothing like that will happen to this Mi Quixan as well, allowing her to strive for the peak of the Body Integration Realm like her elder sister.’
Other than her, there weren’t any others in the room with high talent. They were all destined for at most the Soul Transformation Realm, with many unlikely to hit even the Core Formation Realm.
Then again, for a Royal Family of Mortal Lineage, this was already quite exceptional.
As for the two strongest in the room...
"Tsk, whatever," Grandmaster Yaguway clicked his tongue, understanding that this interrogation was getting him nowhere. "Let’s continue with the proceedings. I have sowhere else I must be today and cannot waste anymore ti here."
One might find this statent rude seeing as he was at the death-bed of an Emperor. But in reality, a Mortal Emperor ant very little to soone as formidable as Grandmaster Yaguway. In fact, he along with dozens of other Underworlders of his Sect had their hands dipped in more than 20 Mortal Dynasties scattered across over 10 Provinces.
Of course, all of that fell apart when the Seven Underworlds Sect was razed to the ground so years ago...
Now, he was one of the only few high-level stragglers still left alive.
Royal Priests entered the room a few seconds later. They recited their scriptures and threw holy water on the Emperor, ensuring that his passing into the afterlife was a smooth one. And when the ti was right and the 10th bell was rung, the Royal Priests started to recite the final words of the Scriptures with a solemn tone.
Those in the room were staring at Emperor Quixan with varying emotions, and as tears began to fall, the Archduke’s grin beca ever more malicious. Instead of watching that old foggy breath his last, he found it much more pleasing to scan Yu Quixan’s tasty body with his lascivious gaze, already imagining all the things he would do to it.
"This will be the final declaration to the Holy Father and the God Legarian!"
When it reached this point of the chants, Yu Quixan’s expression beca increasingly saddened, with her complexion darkening.
’In the end, I wasn’t capable of saving you, Father... Neither my Alchemy nor Cultivation were sufficient enough... I’m sorry...’
*Drop!*
’I’m so very sorry...’
At the quiet dropping of a tear droplet that was close to multiplying into many, a sigh echoed ever so faintly.
"In the na of the Holy Father and God Legaria, I proclaim the Mighty and Benevolent Emperor of the Quixan Dynasty—"
Before the Head Royal Priest could finish the last of the recitations, ti froze. Or rather, a Sword Domain has expanded and stopped the movent of molecules in the Emperor’s Personal Chambers.
Being the only one who could move and think right, Zar took slow calculated steps toward the Emperor. In his right hand was a glowing blue and red pill with cloud inscriptions on it.
Rank 11 Holy Pill - Divine Nine Restorations and Detoxifications (Superior Quality).
It was sothing Zar stashed away from the Spatial Ring of the Strongest and Oldest Demon King he fought and killed almost ten years ago. Sothing of this rank and quality would make even so Virtual Destruction Realm Experts roll over in envy, and get Demon King Wang, who was only of the 9th Layer of Origin Infant, actually had one in his possession.
So people were just prone to lucky encounters like that.
"The Dao of the Sword and subsequent Sword Aura truly are quite versatile," Zar said calmly as he carefully placed the Rank 11 Divine Nine Retaoristions and Detoxifications Pill into Emperor Quixan’s mouth. "Take this as partial repaynt for your daughter’s goodwill over these past years."
