Cheryl nodded in agreement when she heard that. "Yeah, you and Walbert have only known each other for a few days. He just has a crush on you for now, and it doesn't seem reasonable to request such a huge favor from him. Let’s just continue shopping. You'll have plenty of chances to get revenge. Once you become Walbert's wife, it'll be so much easier for you to get revenge too.""You're right. Let's just go shopping for now!" Lucy glanced at the restaurant's entrance, gritted her teeth, and left with Cheryl."What was with that fatso earlier? Didn't we teach his friend Arnie a lesson? Why would he try to rub us the wrong way again?" Megan frowned while drinking her fine wine. "Do you think he genuinely got the wrong person?"Severin smiled wryly. "I'm not sure. Perhaps he did. I'm sure he wouldn't dare to do anything to me after I gave his friend a good smacking. I've already offended the Pearsons too, so there's no need for that fatty to do anything else. If he wants me dead, all he
Severin then said, "It doesn't matter that you're my bodyguards. Just treat this as a reward! Don't be shy! Buy whatever you like! I'll pay for everything later.""Hehe, thank you very much then." Abigail immediately covered his mouth and giggled.The women then happily began their shopping spree."How can this dress cost more than thirty thousand?" Lucy and Cheryl were also shopping for clothes in the same mall, and Lucy—who finally saw something she liked—exclaimed in surprise when she saw the price. In her opinion, it was simply too expensive.Although she still had a lot of money from Cain, she had spent just as much to get close to some rich people. She once spent more than 15 million just to buy a villa in a relatively good location, so she did not have much money left over. As a result, she had to be a little cautious when spending."Hehe, isn't it just thirty thousand? She'll take it!" Lucy did not expect to hear a man's familiar voice at that moment."Walbert!" Lucy turn
As they went out of the clothing store, Lucy saw Severin's group walking in her direction. She was startled to see them, and a sudden idea came to mind as she deliberately turned around in fear and said in a panic, "Let's go this way, Walbert."Anyone who saw her then could tell that she was nervous. Walbert frowned immediately and asked, "What's going on, Lucy? Why are we going the other way?""It's him!" Cheryl saw the group of people in front of her and immediately said, "He just brought his women into that luxury bag store.""Him? Who's 'him'?" Walbert's expression soured as he looked at Cheryl and asked.At that moment, Lucy lowered her head and did not dare to speak. She deliberately said in fear, "Let's go this way, Walbert. I don't want to see him!"Cheryl knew that Lucy was pretending in the hopes that Walbert would take the initiative to stand up for her. After all, Lucy said earlier that it would not be good for her to request Walbert's help in dealing with a level seve
Then, the old man sneered and said with disdain, "I won't take offense against someone who doesn't have any attainment, but I ask that you watch carefully later when I start dealing with him."Lucy's eyes lit up, "That sounds great. But I don't want to kill him though. I just want to cripple him. It'd be perfect if he becomes a beggar who can't live a normal life and had all his money taken away from him.""Consider it done. Hehe. He's as good as dead for treating you like that!" Walbert chuckled and was about to bring Lucy and others in.Lucy was a little scared at first, but she comforted herself with the fact that Walbert was the scion of a first-tier family and that Skystream City was his territory. Even if Walbert's men were unable to win against Severin, she was sure that Severin would not dare to kill them.After thinking about it, she followed Walbert and his men into the store. However, they walked slightly ahead of her while she and Cheryl followed them from behind.Cher
However, the conversation between Lucy and Severin had been completely misunderstood by Walbert! From his perspective, Severin abused Lucy physically and showed no signs of repenting!Walbert immediately stepped forward and said, "You're the vilest scumbag I've ever met! I'm going to teach you a lesson today!" He then took another two steps back, waved his hand, and said, "Get him!"Severin was stunned for a moment, but he could not resist poking fun at Walbert with a smile. "When you said you'd teach me a lesson, I thought you were going to come at me yourself. I should've expected that you would let your subordinates do the dirty work. If you couldn't do it yourself, then you shouldn't have been so pretentious!""Hehe, you're quite the talker. Let's see if you can still make those snarky remarks once my men beat you into a pulp!" Walbert chuckled and did not take Severin's words seriously."Show me what you got, kid!" That old man led the charge. As a level five warrior king, he
Severin then turned to Lucy and said, "That bag you're holding was taken by Megan first. Are you going to take it with you?"That was when Lucy remembered the bag in her hand. She stepped forward angrily and threw the bag at Megan's feet. "Here! I don’t want it anymore! I can live just fine without it!" she said as she prepared to turn around and leave."Pick it back up!" Severin said coldly. He knew that the reason why Walbert targeted him was because of Lucy's bewitchment. She always had a way of getting on her nerves."Don't cross the line!" Walbert immediately took two steps forward and glared at Severin."I'll count to three. If you don't pick it up, I'll kill you right this instant!" Severin looked intently at Lucy and ignored Walbert. "I believe I've been kind enough to you already, yet you're still so insistent on targeting me. If you keep putting yourself in this sort of situation, you can’t blame me for killing you when I decide that enough is enough."Lucy was frightene
"I didn't think we'd run into that b*tch here in Skystream City!" Megan complained while she browsed through the stock of bags.Diane looked at Severin, and said jokingly, "Do you think you and her are fated, somehow? I can't find any other explanation for why you'd run into her in a place like this."Severin smiled bitterly and said, "Fate? I don't think you can call that fate. More like bad luck!" Severin then pointed out to Diane, "Since we're still on the subject of fate, it was fate that brought us together. Back then, you got pregnant even though we only slept together once. If that's not fate, I don't know what is!"Diane blushed instantly and she rolled her eyes at Severin. "What nonsense are you talking about?""It's not nonsense. This is fate arranged by heaven itself! We can't say no to the workings of the Almighty now, can we?" Felicia had grown increasingly content with Severin, and having a son-in-law like him made her feel proud wherever she went. He had since become
Felicia's pulled a long face as she looked up ahead. "Where did that rich guy get so much courage from? Didn't Severin already teach them a lesson earlier? I can't believe he brought another group of men over here. That old man from earlier was strong, but he still couldn't measure up to you, could he?"Severin glanced at them and said, "I've just about had enough of this. Lucy needs to die. She has given us headaches time and again, and I've already been kind enough to let her go. Now that she's found another rich young man, I think it's time to stop her once and for all."When he killed Cain at Brookbourn some time ago, Severin tasked Larry to send someone to investigate Lucy. Unfortunately, her cunningness was her best asset and she managed to flee from Brookbourn without a trace. The world might be a big place, but Severin did not expect to run into her again. It was high time he stopped going easy on her!"Hehe, these people are to get themselves killed. Shall we try our hand a
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
