Heads were tossed into the river by the bucketful, yet Lord Ao Sha rston's mood was not appeased.
Usually, she would find peace and calm by killing those she deed deserving, which was related to Zhou Yuan's curse.
Zhou Yuan's curse was distortion.
It's not rely reversing yin and yang or swapping sun and moon; it's distortion and confusion, changing physiological attributes and psychological status permanently without one's awareness — as is well known, changes in psychology and emotions are hormone-controlled.
Compared to the Distortion Curse of Border Abyss, those cursed by Zhou Yuan suffer more painfully and often unknowingly pass this pain onto those closest to them.
However, for a demigod, there are ways to overco this problem.
rston's thod is killing.
She doesn't like killing; for a demigod, mortals are no longer the sa species as her, and no matter how many are eradicated, it's rely like pouring hot water into an anthill for human amusent.
But recently, since leaving Destiny Fort and coming to the northern borders to oversee the refugee containnt and integration program, her feelings of unease and restlessness have grown.
"Lately, sothing feels amiss."
rston lowered her head, pondering the events thus far.
"Last month, I killed five thousand four hundred disloyal individuals, twenty-six slanderers, and seventeen depraved ones. The public order has stabilized, and the economy has started running smoothly; all of Oxiulia and the Platinum Orchid Confederation are harmonious."
In that case, the genuine discomfort stems from being far away from Destiny Fort and separated from her beloved nephew.
"Though I wish to swiftly abandon my current affairs and return to accompany dear Leoz, the refugee issue here must be resolved first."
The frost disaster that hit the northern plains arrived just in ti, directly bringing vital population to Oxiulia, yet these nomads cannot imdiately be transford into stable tax-paying farrs and workers. Even though Oxiulia is a universal country, entering the cities, due to the differences in script and language, they find it hard to acquire suitable jobs.
If poorly managed, this opportunity will instead beco a burden.
"Speaking of which, this white disaster arrived too suddenly, the opportunity virtually falling from the sky. If it's rely a coincidence, it's just too coincidental."
"Why are you daydreaming, Lord Ao Sha?"
A lazy, languid voice sounded beside her ear, pulling rston back to reality from her thoughts. She shook her head, looked at the black-robed figure who almost appeared at her side suddenly, and said:
"It's nothing, just concerned about the situation back there."
"Oh? Truly unusual, the Lord Ao Sha who then drenched the rivers in blood, now hesitating and growing soft over a child."
The lazy-toned figure teased:
"Don't lose your life over such trivial matters; rember, our ti is limited."
"I'll take care of my affairs, no need for your concern, Lord of Incompetence," rston said lightly. "Though we have little ti, we still have a few hundred years. He's my only family; favoritism is just natural."
"Favoritism is fine, as long as you don't sacrifice the bigger picture for your descendants. Such behavior is despised in the Starry Abyss."
The Lord of Incompetence spoke lazily:
"The future belongs to the Grand Narrative; I shouldn't have to reiterate this. The power of the Void is growing strong, and the threat from Society is increasingly severe. Without the unification with Primordial Abyss's power..."
"If indeed there is a Primordial Abyss."
rston said:
"No one has ever descended there; legendary it may be, the abode of the orthodox Starry Abyss Main God; upon reaching there, one can et the Redemption Sprite Lai Anding and the Source Starry Abyss Will, receiving their blessings and selecting the truly...one who surpasses the six Chief Gods, the Supre Will."
"I know you may dismiss this as re legend, but Redd Gold is still alive. If we obtain the Raiding Chief God's recognition, Border Abyss will completely break free from Layer Abyss's technological suppression and Void's power threats."
"Let's save such talk for another ti."
rston sighed:
"Lord of Incompetence, when does Border Abyss require you to proceed to Mass Abyss?"
"Year 290, ninety years after you." Lord of Incompetence said: "You are overly attached to the mundane, Lord Ao Sha. The Void's Twilight Duke approaches the Chief God sequence; we must hasten. Among us, you have the strongest potential to beco a god..."
"The Crimson Blood Alliance won't allow to leave so easily; that's why I want to move Oxiulia and the Platinum Orchid State into the Inherent Ti Domain together. Only this way, in the future, Leoz won't be manipulated by the Narrative Civilization, becoming a re puppet."
"So, you need to prove your value, correct?"
The Lord of Incompetence stroked his chin:
"In that case, Lord Ao Sha, I have a thought that might assist you."

Having just exited The Gate, Leoz was almost driven back by the frigid wind and snow. He unfolded his Qi Energy, protecting himself, and quipped:
"Seems like the plains aren't too welcoming of ."
"Not quite, the snow was my doing."
Rednaya closed The Gate, the erald in her eyes faded, returning to the usual dark gold state:
"So? Leoz, though unintentional, even here the cold matches the power of extinguishing the sun in Layer Abyss; you're certain about coming here at Kappa (10) stage?"
"You needn't voice concerns now; if you didn't trust , you wouldn't patiently transport here."
"I can't watch you die under dragon fla and Qie Xue Warriors' scimitars, unable to even retrieve a whole corpse, can I?"
Rednaya spread her hands, quite innocently.
Leoz avoided verbal sparring; he bent down, his newfound talent granting him strong earth affinity, effortlessly sensing the information transmitted by rock layers and soil, along with lingering traces.
"Not long ago, a party passed through here."
Leoz lifted his head, facing the northeast:
"The distance is relatively close, and the air still carries the heat of Dragon Breath. Population, approximately five persons, their Qi Energy at Cauchy Rank (14) level—are you sure the Golden Dragon Monks will stand with us?"
"Of course." Rednaya puffed her chest confidently: "Even my useless daughter can command these Dragon Race; re Golden Dragons, I can dispatch at will."
"Seems you are rather useful."
"Thank you."
Rednaya squinted:
"Actually, you can praise more; I'm the type who performs better with more praise, regardless of the intelligence you seek, I can fetch it for you—"
Roar——————!
Before Rednaya finished speaking, a furious dragon roar echoed over the grassland. Following that, terrifying pressure bombarded the land, as if to shatter the entire sky. Thunderous voice bellowed:
"Destroy! Collapse! Despair! You despicable worms, bow beneath my arms and legs, Lievice!"
"Wow, you seem to have a lapse in intelligence. Looks like the Evil Goddess Sister got lost and ended up on the plains."
Leoz turned to Rednaya:
"What now?"
Pa.
Rednaya clenched her fan, biting the Dragon Tooth, and growled:
"Ranmalock! Get over here now!"
