"How many guests do we have? We should prepare two mansions for their stay!" Zachariah Ballard said excitedly.

"Then I'll take my leave!" Claude Emeraldo saluted and promptly left.

The servants of the Ballard family working nearby were surprised when they heard the War Chief was visiting. The news quickly spread among the other servants. The next day, the other families in Brookbourn heard about the news.

"My goodness! The War Chief Valerian Sutcliffe is visiting! I heard the families are inviting him over for dinner! It would bring a great reputation to have him as a dinner guest! That renown will also bring in good business!"

Having heard the news, Catherine Shanahan discussed it with Diane, Severin, and the rest of her family.

"War Chief Valerian is coming?" Severin muttered to himself.

He knew Valerian could get his men to escort Keagan and Linette. There wasn't any need for him to do it himself. He was a little surprised by how things turned out.

"Yeah. It's rare for a cele

    As everyone parted ways after the discussion, Severin and Diane made their way to their car. However, as they exited the main hall, they noticed a bodyguard running past them."Madam, Sir! We have visitors from the Emerald Cloud Gang!""The Emerald Cloud Gang? Why are they here for?" Catherine Shanahan frowned. "Oh well, they're still our guests. Let them in!"Claude Emeraldo appeared with some of his men carrying plenty of boxes. After knowing Severin's true identity, he didn't dare to butter Severin up. He decided it would be wiser to start earning favors from Catherine instead. He felt rejoiced when he saw Severin and Diane. Having Severin around to witness his tribute to Catherine would be killing two birds with a stone."Claude Emeraldo, at your service. Madam Catherine, I represent the Emerald Cloud Gang to congratulate your family's ascension to the second tier. Here's a set of jade ornaments, gold bullions, one pair of gold earrings..."A servant working for the Shanahans

    Claude Emeraldo was relieved when Severin accepted his gift. However, he also knew Severin was just being humble when he extended his friendship. After all, Severin didn't need his help.Knowing that Severin was trying to hide his identity, he decided to play along. "Haha, of course! We must help each other in times of need!"Stanley and George, who were watching nearby, exchanged glances. Their lips twitched as they shared the same thought."Severin and Claude have rarely dealt with each other. Since when are they on good terms?""Mister Emeraldo, please have a seat. I'll get the servants to prepare lunch for you. We're honored to have you as our guest, so let's have a couple of drinks!" George said."Haha, I'm thinking of the same thing too! We should have a drink or two!" Claude laughed as he followed George inside the house.Severin packed up the box and turned to his wife."Honey, I guess we'll have to postpone our trip home. I'm afraid I can't turn down his offer to drink

    "Dad? Y-you're letting me play with my handsome Severin?" A shocked expression ran across Sheila's face. She had plans to sneak out of her home, but she was afraid it would anger her father. She didn't expect her father to have a change of tone. What a surprise!However, Sheila didn't immediately put down her guard. "Hehe, are you testing me?""Testing you? I recently have a better impression of Severin. If you can find a way to become his wife, I think that's a good idea too!"Zachariah thought Severin was more than what he seemed. He was impressed with Severin's ability to mobilize a powerful force with a phone call, his friendship with the War Chief, and also having Draco Hall under his thumb. Compared to the other young men in the city, he would be the best son-in-law he could ever ask for."Dad, you've changed!"Sheila looked at his Dad mischievously, and realization dawned upon her."Oh, I see what's going on now. Severin made a phone call to ask a friend to save my dear co

    "Miss Ballard? That's a surprise! I must inform the Madam of your arrival!" One of the Shanahans' bodyguards recognized Sheila. After all, she was popular among the bodyguards."They're having lunch now, aren't they? You don't have to inform them. I'll meet them myself!""Miss Ballard, please let me escort you. They're having lunch at the Madam's house. There's a crowd there, and even Mister Emeraldo is there too!" The bodyguard said as he happily led the way."Mister Emeraldo is here too?" Sheila was surprised, but she didn't ask any further about it.The two finally arrived at the courtyard in front of Catherine's house. There were a few tables laden with food. The guests are already seated and prepared to have their meals."Can you spare a set of dining utensils, Madam Catherine?" Sheila said jokingly."My goodness, it's Miss Ballard! What brings you here? Come, have a seat. You should've told us you were coming!" Catherine was happy to see Sheila."Well, I was just shopping

    It was the first time Sheila presented a gift to Diane. She was afraid Diane wouldn't be happy about it. After all, even though she bought gifts for everyone, her intentions were still too obvious.Diane received the gifts with a smile. "Thank you, Miss Ballard. They're beautiful. I like them!""Come, have a seat here!" Diane ordered her attendant to place a set of utensils and a stool on Severin's other flank."Thank you, Diane!"With the both of them seated beside Severin, Sheila thought Diane was generous for making that arrangement. That was why Severin loved his wife. She was such a saint!"Diane, I'll bring your presents inside!" Megan was gathering all the gifts the Shanahans had received from Sheila."Sure!" Diane nodded as she passed her gifts to her sister."Ahem. Miss Ballard, you're too generous. You've brought us so many gifts, and we don't know how to repay you!"Severin sat down and raised his glass. "I'll give you a toast!"It was Sheila's first time drinking w

    Everyone was in a good mood, especially the Shanahans. Having Sheila Ballard and Claude Emeraldo visiting their estate meant their family was becoming more significant. At that rate, they had a chance to become one of the first-tier families in the city.Catherine Shanahan was in a good mood too. While she usually wouldn't drink much, she had two glasses of red wine that afternoon."Come, let's drink!"However, nobody expected Sheila Ballard to get drunk that soon. Even though she had already lost her composure, she continued filling her glass."Miss Sheila, you're drunk. You must stop before you knock yourself out!" Diane tried to advise her."I'm not drunk. I can still drink. I can drink a lot!" Sheila struggled to keep her eyes open as she mumbled.Severin felt the situation was getting out of hand. Sheila had already finished two bottles of red wine. Despite her claims, the headstrong girl couldn't hold her liquor. How was Severin supposed to explain what happened to her fath

    "Uh..."Diane and Megan exchanged glances and didn't know what to say. It was also embarrassing for Diane. She had to watch another woman shamefully hug her man."Miss Ballard, please watch your conduct! Let Diane and Megan help you to a room to rest!" Severin tapped Sheila's shoulder. He was getting more and more furious.After all, he was losing face in front of his in-laws, family and friends, and especially his beloved wife. However, he still had to hold some restraint on her. After all, Sheila was still the precious daughter of the powerful Ballard family. He couldn't push her away by force, so he could only convince her to let him go."Mmmm...no! I don't want to! I want to be with you. I like you so much." After Sheila mumbled a little, she fell asleep on Severin's lap."She's drunk! Don't take her seriously!" Severin looked at Diane and his in-laws as he tried to defend himself."Severin, maybe it's best you bring her inside. At this point, you're the only one who can help

    "Mmm!"Sheila mumbled one last time before she passed out. After walking for a few minutes, Severin carried Sheila into Diane's room and placed her on the bed. Then, Severin removed her shoes and repositioned her body so she could sleep comfortably.Suddenly, Sheila's arm wrapped around his neck."Be gentle, please! It's my first time! I'm scared!" She muttered.Her sexy red lips, angelic face, and sexy body almost made his heart move. Severin gulped as he almost fell for her charms. He quickly put her arm away from his neck, shook his head, and left the room. He splashed his face with water inside the toilet before heading downstairs."She's such a handful. How could she get so drunk?"Even a righteous man like Severin would have a tough time dealing with a wild-spirited beauty like Sheila."How was it? Is she alright?" Diane asked her husband when she saw he had returned."She's fine. She quickly fell asleep after I put her on the bed!""She's such a piece of work. She can't

    At that instant, Infernatur and Damnatur felt a sudden chill, as if an impending doom loomed on the horizon.Severin then said softly to them, "I'm gonna need you as a helping hand!"Infernatur and Damnatur recoiled as a horrifying realization dawned upon them."Have you taken that leap?" Infernatur's voice trembled with uncertainty.Severin remained silent and simply waved his hand gently. The 129,600 cosmic laws surged with boundless power, reducing the huge figures of Infernatur and Damnatur to dust.Within moments, two essences of pure primordial power flowed into Severin's inner world, while the desolate chaos sea crumbled and was consumed by his voracious appetite.Severin's form eventually began to fade until it became a flicker of light that vanished completely. His consciousness had been devoured entirely.Everything before him was empty and devoid of substance.An indefinite amount of time passed before Severin's voice echoed through the emptiness, "Chaos springs from

    With a deft stroke of the bronze halberd, the path hovering above Severin shattered."This is a peculiar weapon," Severin recoiled in alarm, raising the Oculus Blade to defend himself "It has the ability to dismantle the great path!"Simultaneously, he utilized his space-time path to shield against potential assaults, especially any sneak attacks.Explosions reverberated, unleashing torrents of elemental energy and spatial turbulence throughout the chaotic sea. Time passed indeterminately amidst the chaos.For centuries, the trio engaged in combat, their auras undiminished by time's passage.Meanwhile, the four Dominus Nosters in the Celestial Realm waged war against the extraterrestrial intruders, reclaiming territories with unparalleled ferocity.Under the leadership of figures like Callide, the extraterrestrials were simply no match for them.The Southern, Western, and Devil Regions were reclaimed quickly, yet everyone from the Celestial Realm remained vigilant, for war conti

    Outside the Heaven Palace, the few who had been appointed Dominus Noster along with a cohort of quasi-royal celestials were faced with the grim reality at hand.Clad in resplendent hues, Callide—who was their leader and carried the title Dominus Noster Arcanum—donned celestial attire woven from stars and the galaxy. With a regal bearing, she commanded from atop a cloud, "Follow me, my brethren! We shall vanquish the extraterrestrials in the Devil Realm!""At your command, Dominus Noster Arcanum!""Yes, Dominus Noster Arcanum!"With their resounding battle cries, streams of light surged across the Nine Heavens Ten Lands, converging upon the territories occupied by the extraterrestrials—they were the Devil Region, Southern Region, and the Western Region.Amidst the vibrant rainbow, a towering figure emerged, blotting out the sky and earth. Everyone recognized that figure as Severin, and knew that the battle against the quasi-celestial regents would soon begin.Adrian, who was alrea

    Armin then spoke with a calm authority, "You cannot remain in this time and space, for you are from the future. It is time you return."As he uttered these words, Severin sensed an invisible force pushing against him and urging him to depart.Standing upon the river of time, he overlooked the tumult of the quasi-celestial regent conflict looming below. He mumbled Armin's counsel, "By receiving nourishment, shattering constraints, tearing open chaos, and reaching the other side…" As Severin pondered over those revelations for an indefinite amount of time, clarity dawned upon him like the sudden rising sun. "So that's the way!"By the time he snapped to his senses, he discovered that his primal spirit had traversed countless epochs in the river of time. "Did I spend that long in the river of time?" he asked himself. Fortunately, the duration he spent in the river of time was but a fleeting moment in the real world.Severin's resolve solidified. Though his brief discourse with Armin,

    Severin could sense the mental connection between himself and the weapon, almost as if it was an extension of himself. Severin then raised his gaze to the celestial expanse beyond."I'm almost on Armin's level now that I've made a breakthrough to the rank of quasi-celestial sovereign. However, facing the extraterrestrials' quasi-celestial regents isn't going to be easy meat for me," he mused aloud.Armin was once the sovereign architect of the Imperial Court and the ruler of the Celestial Realm, yet even he found himself at the mercy of the attack of Heaven's Will. Even a mighty quasi-celestial sovereign was reduced to naught but dust.Severin felt the weight of the responsibility settle upon him. Confronting the two quasi-celestial regents would require him to transcend to the realm of celestial sovereign—a realm of which he had scant knowledge of.He understood the concept of the celestial sovereign only in the context of attaining liberation through enlightenment via the 3,000 p

    In the vast expanse of the chaotic sea, occasional gusts of strong wind whipped up the formidable chaotic energy. A single whirlpool could claim the life of even a true immortal.Amidst that tumult, two colossal figures lay prone within the abyss. They emanated an aura of unparalleled power, commanding even the paths to heed their authority. The turbid breath exhaled in their slumber had the capacity to tear the fabric of the chaotic void, unveiling dreamlike cosmic chiliocosms.They were the progenitors of the extraterrestrial race, the alpha and omega of the enigmatic beings. Their names were Infernatur and Damnatur. To the uninitiated, and sometimes even to their own kind, it was widely believed that Infernatur and Damnatur were distinct entities. However, they were but facets of the same being.Infernatur could be deemed the primordial offspring of chaos itself, having borne witness to the most primitive and barbaric epochs of the Bleu Celestial Realm. Being born of chaos, he po

    Heaven Palace could now boast four royal celestials, along with nearly 20 quasi-royal celestials and 5,000 true immortals. Those esteemed individuals once served the Longevity Alliance, Clear Wind Sect, Tri Celestial Island, and Ingeni Paradise. While their numbers paled in comparison to the 120,000 true immortals during the ancient Imperial Court's heyday, Severin was confident that he could revive that with time. After all, the new Imperial Court had only just been re-established, and there was still more work to do.Severin then addressed the assembly, "As you continue raising your attainment, you shall have to anticipate the looming threat of conflict with the extraterrestrials. Now that you have are bestowed with titles as the custodians of heaven and earth, it is our solemn duty to reciprocate the blessings bestowed upon us.""Yes, we shall!" echoed the resolute affirmation from the gathered immortals.Having concluded his address, Severin went to speak briefly with Diane and

    In the Heaven Palace, Callide sensed that the aura emanating from Severin was simultaneously as vast the sky and ocean but as indiscernible as that of a mortal. Tremors of terror gripped her, as she knew that he had far surpassed the realm of a cultivator who had attained the perfect-stage royal celestial. It was no exaggeration to say that Severin could obliterate a royal celestial with a mere thought.Balke, Libra, and Creatia shared Callide's apprehension. To them, Severin embodied the very essence of the path—intangible, silent, abstruse, incomprehensible, and undetectable.As the imperial robe adorned Severin, Balke and the others bowed in reverence. "Long live the Celestial Sovereign!" they chanted in unison.A subtle wave of fortune floated toward the heavenly heart imprint as Severin acknowledged their worship with a satisfied smile. He raised his hand and lifted them effortlessly with an unseen force.With a thunderous voice that resonated in their ears, Severin proclaimed

    The true immortals, quasi-royal celestials, and even the eminent royal celestials held their breath. Everyone observed in silence as Severin wielded the heavenly heart imprint.With each strand of luck infused into the heavenly heart imprint, Severin sensed his dominion over the Bleu Celestial Realm becoming stronger. He had the feeling that he could reshape the world with only a single thought.Once the destinies of tens of thousands of races were bound with the heavenly heart imprint, the golden tourmaline quivered violently and radiated an aura that could be felt across the Nine Heavens Ten Lands. Acknowledging the momentous occasion, Severin tapped his forehead and directed a fragment of his soul to command the heavenly heart imprint. The 3,000 great paths within him erupted from his being and materialized."Today shall be the day that I, Severin, rebuild the Imperial Court in the Nine Heavens! As wielder of the great path, the world shall be inscribed in me, and I shall embody
