Inevitable Road To Divinity Chapter 243

Xue Ren entered the treasury first. They had a lot of resources as expected, and their swords were enough to feed Divine Sword for 8 months. However, compared to the resources and artifacts from Six Path Realm that he had gathered together with Moonrose, it was too lacking. 'I must go back there, that's for sure.' Inwardly thinking about future, Xue Ren continued feeding the sword while the rest of his party gathered various crystals and other artifacts that are going to be converted into pure energy. - As Xue Ren left the treasure, one of the maids knelt before him and passed down Space Ring. Seeing the contents, Xue Ren patted her hair affectionately which made the lucky maid to bloom with happiness. "Surrounding parties already got notified, so let's go to the meeting~~" The plundering was successful! A few maids only experienced several wounds, but the problem quickly got resolved with medicine pills obviously stolen from other nobles. The party sat down on their dragons and flew forward to the Salus Empire. The meeting was secretive and only trusted people knew about it. It was lucky that the stupid clan head wanted Alise to go with him to show that his direct lineage wasn't that affected by the loss on mission in Violae Empire's territory. After Xue Ren disappeared high in the sky, the surrounding allied forces under direct control of Cadere Clan arrived with their leaders! Those leaders were low black, but Xue Ren simply didn't want to waste time with them. "How can this be? He left? The black devil actually left leaving survivors?" "Something must have happened, right? Anyway, where is the Clan Head?" "Actually... where are the black ranks? No one from Cadere Clan above purple rank is here!" The turmoil began. - Salus Empire's capital was filled with prestige like any capital. Its huge castle surrounded by strong and sturdy gates were meant to intimidate and show how resourceful they are! One could easily see the huge crystals filled with energy atop castle's towers, ready to release it at intruders! The meeting of four clans was in this very capital as the one who organized it was the emperor himself. "We have heard about your failure, Ildre." The very emperor spoke! He was middle aged man with skin that didn't fit his image, looking rather too healthy and shining like some kind of baby! The Emperor of Salus Empire turned his eyes to clan head who had his whole body covered in sweat, bowing as low as he can... "Although we knew about danger, it's hard to hide our disappointment after your show of confidence." "Emperor, please forgive me and my unfilial children!" Cadere Ildre bowed several times, his clan members already kneeling before The Emperor under eyes of other clan heads! It was humiliating, but what's done is done! With his eyes on the ground, Ildre suddenly felt a slightl breeze passing through him and he knew, he knew that his emperor waved his hand, forgiving his failure! And the same time as the emperor closed the topic... "Trash~~ After all that boasting about soul searching artifact, all you could was lose all of it together with your children~~" The woman, who had the same status as Ildre spoke, not hiding her ridicule! She insulted and insulted while looking at Nyua who was next to her target of insulting with lustful eyes! Nyua had good talent, so she was eager to eat him and dominate this little boy, not knowing that he also had same thoughts about her. Wouldn't they get the control of each family this way? "Shut up, Awresle." "Yeah, yeah~~ Why do you sound so quiet, hmm?~~" The bold woman narrowed her eyes as one of royal guards entered the room abruptly! He had sweat all over his body, looking even worse than Cadere Head a few moments ago! "The black devil is here!" ""..."" - Four clan heads had never met Xue Ren, only heard about his domination over their generals and associated powers... Since he was focusing on attacking the powers around the borders, it meant he has no guts to directly attack them! So all they could do was order their subordinates to work together, tighten the surveillance and sooner or later catch him... They clearly don't believe he has rank higher than them! But now... "WhaT's WroNg? ArE yoU thaT ScArEd yUo Can onLy loOk fRom Afar?" He spoke with audible ridicule as it truly looked like everyone from Salus Emprie was hiding behind the barrier covering the capital... Xue Ren together with his maids had quite nice force here. The maids were all black rank, while the head maid was on the same rank as clan heads... As for the black abomination itself... ''What kind of power he possess?'' They couldn't probe into him! Even, The Emperor narrowed his eyes as wrinkles appeared on his healthy skin. Even the unknown creatures similar to snakes were at least on low purple rank, so all of this made the black devil even more mysterious! Though he had shown signs of worry, The Emperor wasn't that worried at all. He had control over all offensive formations in the capital, and all clan heads had brought with themselves their most powerful clan members, so... "What do you want, black devil?" He spoke with royal tone. Standing in front of his subordinates, The Emperor was looking as if ready for battle, however, deep inside, he had other intentions... The black devil's words only shown that he knows his inward thoughts! "Ehhhhhh~~ WhY dO yOu Sound sO niceeeeeeee? Don't you want to kill me? Hey, release those cannons~~" ""..."" The whole situation suddenly became tense! The magic of humanity coming from Salus Empire members caused the whole area around them to tremble! Xue Ren's party released their own 'magic' hidden beneath sin's energy which quickly becaming staring contest. Alise who was at the end of the group of Salus Empire could only look at Xue Ren with worry... Wasn't the strongest party here? Even though she knew about his strength, she could only worry, not caring about the wounds she already gotten from the 'magic release' of her own clan members... During this staring contest, Xue Ren claw suddenly pointed forward... He directly aimed at Nyua, who was only behind his father! Feeling the direct pressure coming from Xue Ren, the young man felt like dying already! "W-what do you want?!" Mustering his whole strength, he spoke, but nothing could hide the horror stricken face. If not his father who was doing his best to protect his son, he already would've fainted like everyone in the capital... "YouR lifE, mOrOn!" ""..."" "GIVE ME EVERYTHING HE HAS AND I WILL LEAVE THIS PLACE Q-I-U-E-T-L-Y." ""...""
