Chapter 500: 500: Settles

Lyon had no choice but to accept the protocol for now. He ate merrily with the others despite the latter were put in a tight spot. The monster was happily smiling while the looming danger that one sip from a wrong glass could send them all to the brink of non-existence.

"In a week," said Cecile.

"Huh?" Zet raised his eyebrows.

"We are going to that place in a week," said Cecile.

Despite never attending a single meeting from the famous summit, she controlled the situation quite easily. Leading the conversation as if it was natural for her. However, none of the three great families dare to speak back. Because she was Cecile and also because she was that man's wife.

"A week, huh," muttered Ivy. "There is also a competition coming up in about a month from now. You know, the Heaven Rookie Tournament."

"You mean the tournament where you all lost miserably last time?" smirked Cecile. "I recalled that I warned you guys before to not participate in that rigged tournament."

Porealus and Zet had their heads hung down whilst Ivy gritted her teeth. "That won't happen if you decide to join us and Yunesia didn't go to that place with Garuda and the others."

"I also warned her about it," said Cecile as she shook her head. "Look what happened. Both sides are on the losing sides. The so-called experts died in that place while you guys make a clown of yourself."

"But big sister," exclaimed Porealus. "This time, this time is different! At least one of us can enter the top ten or even five if we are lucky!"

"I have improved since last time," nodded Zet. "There is no way that I will embarrass the Mortal World now."

Cecile only looked at the two of them without making another comment. She averted her gaze toward Ivy, "What rank did you get last time?"

"Eleven," answered Ivy. The proud of the Yuki family had her head hung down before biting her bottom lip.

Cecile frowned upon her sense of regret before asking, "What happened?"

Ivy closed her eyes before taking a deep breath. "I lost, that is all."

Cecile knew there was something going on in that tournament last time. Seeing the expressions of Porealus and Zet, she couldn't be any more right. "Spill it."

Ivy clenched her jaw as she refused to look Cecile in her eyes. She crossed her arms as if to hug herself and comfort her shaken heart.

"If she doesn't want to tell, then don't force her," said Lyon with a smile before he stood up. "Right?"

Ivy turned slightly blush as she saw his face. The monster that could destroy the great family Treas was not a tyrant as he was rumored to be. However, he was still as dangerous as a bomb, especially with liquors around him.

"Well," Lyon stretched his arm up. "It's time to go home I suppose."

"Lyon, you are going to enter that Heaven Rookie Tournament, aren't you?" asked Cecile with a smile.

Porealus immediately pushed down his knees as he opened his ears wide. Zet's eyes were already glowing up and his face brightened. Yunesia was already smiling but Ivy had only just recovered from her blush before mildly anticipating her answer.

Lyon smiled before he looked at his three powerful generals, "What do you guys think?"

Assid pushed his glasses up with a slight push of his middle finger before he made a nasty grin, "Of course, Your Majesty!" his killing intent rose. The abundant coldness soon clashed with the two beside him.

"It's time to shut their cockiness and buried it to hell," said Kesya as she also grinned with her dark elf's ears erected to ninety degrees.

"It's time to pay for their sins and we will start from the ground up! Master!" the intense hatred from Graham's eyes made the guests trembled.

(A-Amazing!) thought Porealus as he was drenched in his own cold sweat.

The combination of the three almost stopped their hearts from thumping. The intense hatred from the three of them was vivid as the lust to uproot Heaven sent shivers down to their spines. One would think it was an impossible thought, a useless effort, like cutting water into two. However, what they felt was the very opposite. They might turn Heaven upside down.

"Heh," Lyon smirked before he turned around and crossed his arms. "I guess that settles it. I'm going to participate, in that tournament."

His black hair fluttered as somehow he appeared taller than before. Lumina and Cecile looked up to him before their beautiful eyes opened wide. The silhouette of the past was slightly visible for them. The figure that stood on top of the world. The one that was feared by all three worlds. The one they called Emperor Lyon.

"Heh," Cecile shook her head before she stood up while stealthily wiped of a hint of tears in her eyes. "I guess that settles it, he will be participating in that tournament," she crossed her arms and smirked, "And of course, I am too."

Porealus grinned from ear to ear. (The time has come! The time has finally come! The honor of the Mortal World shall be restored! Those meddling cultivator fools have no idea what Heaven actually looked like. Glorifying them as if it was a sacred place! But with these two, they sure will bring hell to them!).

Yunesia pointed her purple lips upward, "I was not expecting this development but I guess there is no harm in joining."

Ivy nodded. "We finally have full force this time and plus one. However, our next task is not to die in that place, we must get stronger with whatever fruitful encounter we can get."

"You don't have to worry about dying there," chuckled Cecile before she knelt down and touched the pillar.

"Wa?" Zet raised his eyebrows

"Wai—" Porealus couldn't even finish his word.

They couldn't stop her. The whole pillar flashed before it pulled down at a horrific rate. The giant pillar smashed the pond and drenched the onlooking cultivators once more. Some of them even swallowed up the water.

"See you next week," said Cecile before she leaped over the mountain.

"Let's go!" said Lyon before she carried Lumina like a princess and followed Cecile whilst the three generals took their time and leisurely followed their emperor.

The four of them were flabbergasted along with the onlookers. Their hair was slightly disheveled from the extreme fall. 

"W-What just happened?" muttered Ivy.
