1023 Control 3 (1/2)
The breathing of the men became shallow. An Empress level character was rare beyond belief, in fact, Emperors were incredibly rare as well. But, there was something about seeing a strong woman with rare beauty that fired them all up.
That said, that was all it did. How could any of them dare to have thoughts on a woman that was Anak's? Wasn't that asking for death?
Only Amory clenched his teeth and fists. He had loved Chrysanthemum for a long time, but it seemed his race had lost out to the Emperor Giant race once again…
However, a marriage alliance between the 11th and 9th quadrant was truly a big deal. It wasn't that inter-marrying between quadrants was rare, but just that the identities of these two were so sensitive. Anak was the most talented Emperor Giant to be birth in the last thousand years, while Chrysanthemum was the treasured grand daughter of the sect master of her all female sect.
To top this all off, the highest-ranking members of the Water Mist Sect all had bloodlines that made them among the top percentage of dao partners. Only those of the Flaming Lily Sect surpassed them as another all female sect beat them out. In a lot of ways, the pure yin characteristics of those of the Water Mist Sect made them even more ideal.
The fact Chrysanthemum clearly chose Anak caused countless individuals to sigh with envy.
”I hear that Anak actually wants to marry the twin flowers of the female only sects.”
”The twin flowers?”
”Of course. In the last 20 or so years, there have been two females that raised themselves to the top of the Empress world that also came from female only sects. One was Chrysanthemum of the Water Mist Sect. I hear if she performs well in the coming years, they might promote her to Core Disciple before she's even stepped into the celestial realms!”
”And the other?”
”Madeleine, of course!”
The crowd's eyes widened with realization. Who else of the younger generation would be able to stand side by side with Chrysanthemum if not her?
Oddly enough, despite one being from a water sect and the other being from a fire sect, Madeleine still had the gentle and goddess-like demeanor of a woman from a water sect while Chrysanthemum was the exact opposite! In fact, most of the reason why they were so surprised that she was sitting so calmly on Anak's shoulder and looking at him so lovingly was exactly because they were used to her fiery temper.
”Wait… Isn't Madeleine's last name Sacharro?”
”So what?”
”Isn't that Dyon character's last name the same?”
”Don't be ridiculous, with how many people there are in 100 quadrants, how could some people not share the same name? Plus, one comes from the fourth quadrant, while the other comes from the former 100th.”
”I would have believed you a few months ago as well, but don't you know why those of the 4th ranked quadrant won't show up this time?”
”There's actually a campaign war happening right now and all four Emperor God Sects are embroiled in it.”
