Chapter 1605 - Extortion (2) (1/2)
The large golden yacht pulled its way out fully moments later. At its full size, it was over a hundred meters long and twenty meters high, but this wasn't the form Dyon liked it best in. At most, it could reach 10% of its max speed in this state, and although that would still outrun most Pseudo-Dao experts, it wasn't good enough for Dyon's purposes.
Still, to put on a little show, it was more than enough.
Dyon didn't step off the yacht, instead maneuvering it toward the Vice Master with a smile on his face.
In truth, Melisende was shocked. She couldn't stop looking at the baby in Madeleine's arms while sending glares toward Dyon every so often.
It was too early for Madeleine to have a child! Yet this Dyon actually put one in her during a life and death trial… wasn't that too irresponsible?
Although this wasn't the real story, the disciples of the Flaming Lily Sect believed it. After all, there were a few months where Madeleine didn't appear at all and Dyon waved it off by saying she was in secluded meditation. Clearly they all believed that the real story was that she was pregnant.
Madeleine smiled. ”Disciple greets Vice Master!”
Melisende bitterly smiled. This would definitely affect Madeleine's cultivation, and just after she was promoted to Legatee as well. She was sure that if it wasn't for the fact such a title couldn't be so easily stripped, that those old fogies would go on a rampage.
Although the Flaming Lily Sect never abolished relationsh.i.p.s, that didn't mean it didn't have its own unspoken rules. No one thought Madeleine had to be told not to have a child so soon.
Soon, the warped portal closed and those in the surroundings began to panic.
”Vice Master Melisende, it's probably best if you step onto my yacht for now.” Dyon said seriously.
Seeing the look in his eye, Melisende's gaze turned serious as she followed his advice without hesitation. Clearly there was something off about the current situation. As though on cue, Dyon's pathway forward was instantly blocked by not only members of the Golden Crow Sect, but also those of the Fiery Lotus Sect, Flame Rebirth Sect, and the Sapientia Guilds.
There were a few stragglers that exited the whirlpool of spatial qi behind Dyon's yacht, but there weren't nearly enough. These people were those who hadn't participated in the third phase and had instead found places to hide and digest their gains. Many of them were from the Sapientia Guilds, but obviously the upper echelon of those Guilds mostly cared about Wilder and Blythe who were nowhere to be seen.
”Young Hero,” Wilder's black robed master suddenly called out, ”Would you mind staying behind a bit to explain just what happened?”
Although he tried to remain calm and kept a cordial appearance, it could be seen that he was slightly panicked. He had been prepared for losses, but a loss of Blythe and Wilder was too much. White Robed geniuses didn't grow on trees.
