In the Etherium Realm, while the guests in the Elfalhn Realm were talking about their mysterious identity, Lux and the others were getting ready.
"Co on, hurry up! They should already be waiting!" Lux urged, seeing their slow movents.
"Relax, brother. You managed to wait over a thousand years—what's a few more hours?" Max teased, noticing the nervous look on his brother's face.
"Besides, father isn't here yet. How can we leave?" Liam added.
"Hmph! Father must be with that woman!" Asha muttered, thinking of their father.
For decades now, their father had been acting strange.
He was often away from the Etherium Realm for months to end.
Asha initially thought he was in seclusion, but after asking their mothers, she discovered their father had been visiting his mistress behind their backs!
"Don't be too mischievous; that's our sect master you're talking about~" Lily reminded, seeing her sister pouting.
"That's right! Having the sect master as one of Father's wives ans we'll be on top of the sect!" Lyla imagined excitedly.
"But it seems Father hasn't succeeded yet…" Lydia reminded.
"The sect master is hard to deal with. All we can do is wish our father good luck," Serene quietly cheered.
"I think it's only a matter of ti. With our father's charm, whether a fairy or an immortal, he can win anyone over!" Cyra said confidently.
"Hmph! Still, I think Father is spending too much ti with our sect master!" Asha continued to pout.
It wasn't that she was against her father finding another woman, but leaving their mothers for one? Asha couldn't help but feel indignant on their behalf.
"Asha, you kid, your father has his reasons. You can't rush him," Emma comforted.
"Why? Aren't you angry, Mother?"
"No, we already knew your father's nature. Besides, what's a few months a year? The rest of the ti, we get to have him to ourselves~" Emma said with a smile.
The others also smiled, comforting their children.
They knew Maximus didn't neglect them and favor the other.
He simply owed Iris too much.
Obtaining over a trillion strands of causality at one ti had placed a huge burden on Iris.
To fill in the gaps, she had to work tirelessly to ensure the sect didn't fall apart.
Such a tedious and repetitive task—Maximus had to be there to cheer her on.
After their intimate encounter thirty years ago, Maximus felt responsible.
Though Iris hadn't said anything, Maximus had already considered her as his partner.
Unfortunately, due to their difference in strength, they could only continue their vague relationship.
Staying by her side to cultivate their relationship and support his work, Maximus regularly had to go to the Immortal Palace Realm.
Explaining their father's reason, Asha also cald down.
…
Soon, after a while, Maximus returned to the Etherium Realm, accompanied by the Dinsional Flagship of the Immortal Palace Sect.
"Huh? Did Father borrow the Dinsional Flagship of the Sect? How aweso!" Lyla muttered excitedly.
This dinsional ship symbolized the strength and pride of the Immortal Palace Sect.
Flying on such a ship, even a mortal would have an unprecedented status.
"Co on, let's go to the wedding," Maximus said with a smile.
…
Elfalhn Realm.
After waiting a few hours, most guests were already growing impatient.
"When will they arrive? Do we have to wait here for years?!"
Not seeing the groom and his family for hours made them feel disrespected.
Suddenly, just when they were about to complain to the organizers, a giant void ship eclipsed the Elfalhn Realm.
"What is that?"
Although the ship was small compared to the sky, its imposing aura and magnificence seed to overshadow the Elfalhn Realm.
"It's the Dinsional Flagship of Immortal Palace Sect!"
As the Dinsional Flagship of a top sect, the grandeur it excludes was no joke.
Slowly descending to the Elfalhn Realm, most couldn't help but feel pressure in their hearts.
"Did soone important from the Immortal Palace Realm arrive?"
Although most of the guests were from top forces of the Dinsional Alliance, they had teleported to the event and hadn't arrived with such a spectacle.
Looking at the Immortal Palace Sect's Dinsional Flagship, they were curious about who was on board.
As the ship landed, a wide doorway extended from it.
With an immortal atmosphere and aura, the walkway led straight toward the core of the Ancestral World Tree.
"Is it them?" Veridra's lips twitched at the spectacle.
"What a show~."
"It's them. Being able to borrow the Immortal Palace Sect's Dinsional Flagship is amazing…"
As Maximus and the others walked out of the ship, all eyes were on them.
With billions of guests from all over the Dinsional Alliance looking curiously, Liam, along with Amara and Elysienne, walked out first.
"Is that Lux?"
"No, look—he has won by his side. It should be his brother!"
"Do you know him?"
"No, it's my first ti seeing his face."
Various guests began to wonder if they had ever seen or heard of Liam.
However, even with their connections, they hadn't heard of him at all.
Yet, feeling his unfathomable aura, which was not inferior to the most talented among them, they couldn't help but feel dread.
When did such a talented man appear in the Dinsional Alliance?
Not being able to guess Liam's identity, they turned their attention to Max and Ella.
"What about them? Do any of you know who they are?"
"We know. It's Max the Gladiator and Ella the Destroyer. They are preparatory saints of the Ashura Sect," answered a guest from the Ashura Sect.
"Huh? Preparatory saints? Them?!"
A preparatory saint of a top sect was equivalent to a saint in top families, a seedling who could at least reach the level of a master of the River of Law.
"Hmph! That's nothing. Do you see those behind them?" They pointed at Nathan, Zoe, Silvan, and Martin.
"What about them?"
"They're also preparatory saints of the Ashura Sect!" he muttered proudly, looking at them with admiration.
mp-y,r.
As preparatory saints, Max and the others were famous.
With their top-notch combat abilities, many wished to spar with them.
Even Geir, the Primordial Candidate of the Ashura Sect, nodded, praising his juniors.
Seeing them filled him with excitent at the thought of eting their father.
If they were already this strong, then what about their father?
Clenching his fist, he couldn't wait to ask for a sparring match.
Soon, it was Luke and Sam's turn to co out.
Hearing the Ashura Sect brag about their mbers, the guests from the chanical Alliance also began to brag about theirs.
Luke and Sam were quite famous prodigies of the chanical Alliance.
One pursued a chanical swarm, while the other pursued chanical domination.
Soon after, Neo, Aria, and Ethan walk out, coupled with the admiration and boasting of the guests from the Eternal Sect.
At this point, the guests were already numb.
One after another, saint-level prodigies kept appearing.
Just how deep was the Shadowcrest family's foundation?
If they didn't know any better, they might even think that the Shadowcrest family was one of the top families in the Dinsional Alliance.
Unfortunately, three components were needed to beco one of the top families: influence, wealth, and the strength to back it up.
Influence ant having a significant position in the Dinsional Alliance, the authority to make decisions that could change the course of the Aeon Plane.
As for wealth, a family needed hundreds of quadrillions in wealth, whether in origin coins, treasures, or various resources.
Finally, power. To be considered a top family, there needed to be at least one master of the Ocean of Law in charge.
Knowing the general details of the Shadowcrest family, they knew they were still far from reaching these qualifications.
As for influence, their connection with the top sects already put them halfway there.
Just when they were about to speculate whether the Shadowcrest family could beco one of the top families, the nine Valkyries—Lily and the others—walked out.
Seeing their dazzling beauty, most noble young lords from various families couldn't help but be srized.
Although Amara, Elysienne, and Zoe were also beautiful, they already had n by their side.
"This is the nine Valkyries of the Immortal Palace Sect! Back off!" A group of won surrounded Lily and the others, shielding them from the guests' gazes.
However, faced with such pressure, the young aristocrats didn't back down and continued gazing at them.
They were like hungry wolves, eager to take a bite of at.
Seeing this, the older guests frowned.
Initially, they were worried about the rise of the 13th top family.
Now, seeing Lily and the others, they knew it was only a matter of ti.
Nine beautiful bargaining chips—if used wisely, the Shadowcrest family could secure everything from wealth to power.
Just as they were deep in thought about the future, an overwhelming pressure suddenly descended upon them.
Coupled with it was a light forming an insignia of the dinsional alliance, which covered the sky.
Recognizing the insignia, the twelve primordial candidates on the scene tensed up, looking ahead.
"The Supre Primordial Candidate is here…"
