Weapon seller in the world of magic

Those twenty seconds of silence raised Song Yue's heartbeat to the peak and the chaos energy remnants inside her started going wild. She was trying her best to calm herself until the fortune teller opened his mouth to answer her husband's question.

Wang Yu took a deep breath and looked at Mark as he said, "Every moment of life is filled with danger. When he is not in danger, he becomes dangerous. Only a Deity's blessing could avert this fate."

After a while, after the fortune teller left with a bag of 1000 gold coins as his fee, Song Yue worriedly looked at her husband, "Markie… what should we do?"

Mark put his hand around her shoulder with a smile, "Never take fortune tellers seriously. The analysis behind him just stemmed from our lives. He knew that we had enemies. He also probably knew my connection to the Shang Dynasty. It was just a gimmick. Nothing to worry about and don't unnecessarily worry others, especially your mother too."

"Ah, is that so?" Song Yue's worries lessened after listening to Mark. When her mother entered the room and enquired about the fortune, Song Yue had to keep that negative fortune for herself and only told her the positive thing.

No one knows how this news about Lu Shan having the fate of a King spread to others. But, by evening, it had already reached the allied Kings too, and two of them started worrying about their throne. One was Shen Niu and the other was Shang Zexi. The trust in the alliance slightly shook for a bit with the rumor.

Shen Niu summoned the princess to push up her marriage, and Shang Zexi couldn't help but contact his trusted ally, Xu Sect, to discuss the matter.

Several hours later in the night;

Song Yue was sleeping in their bedroom with the baby kept in the cradle and a robot was taking care of the baby, swinging it slowly and making sure the baby had a good sleep.

However, Mark was missing there. He was actually lying down on the roof and watching the beautiful sky filled with stars and galaxies. He consoled his wife but his heart was disturbed by the words of the fortune teller.

"This can't go on. After abandoning my revenge and living without scheming against someone or fighting, I really found the value of peace. Lu Shan has a chaos attribute and inherited Primeval Bloodline too.

I don't know what this going to do, as I have yet to experience it myself, but the fact that the system placed it above Blizzard Pegasus only indicates that it is heaven-defying.

His talent would surely attract the powers without question, and after Shang Jun, I can't underestimate the craziness of these people. Some might go to any extent to hurt others. Not to mention, the threat of those exploding pills lately has even reached my neighborhood.

First of all, I need to secure the planet from outside forces. For that, I need to improve the strength of those four ancient beasts.

Secondly, I should fasten the progress of bringing democracy to this land and turning it into a constitutional monarchy. This is going to be tough unless I have an empire of my own. The only way I can have that without troubling my allies is to cut down the Bloodhill forest and claim it for myself. However, it also means that a war with the Leon Empire will be imminent.

Not a problem for me but the war will generate hatred and my child will only be in danger.

Thirdly, I need to find a way to amass ether particles for my breakthrough. I lack funds at the moment to buy ether crystals. So, my best bet is to finish the remaining quests and gain that cultivation skill that will let me absorb energy from the cosmos.

But, the problem is that I can no longer summon Bael because the medium has disappeared, along with the system. Not to mention, the Church of Doom with its tower disappeared from this land after I killed their founder. I don't know where their Supreme Pontiff is hiding right now and I cannot teleport to the quest's location as before.

Hmm, I still have a few advanced stat pills in my inventory. Should I sell them? But, I won't get much this time. Hmm… wait a second…"

As something suddenly clicked in his head, he quickly sat down and slapped his thigh, "There is a way. I just have to mine it from other worlds. Who knows, I could also find Ether ores and get lucky. I just have to focus on mastering my space attribute."

But, in the next second, he turned serious as he contemplated on the matter, "Unfortunately, I cannot do this on my own. I need an able teacher who can be trusted with my secrets too. There's no better one than Lord Yujiang but he is the guardian of the realm. He won't have time to teach me. Another one I can lean on is Bael himself.

Even if I couldn't summon him, I could still go to the netherworld to meet him there. However, it is going to be very risky as that world is filled with powerful demons that I cannot battle against. If something happens to me, what will happen to my wife and child? No, I cannot do that.

In such a case, I can only see one path ahead of me that can help me out and also keep my family safe. The Ancient Lan Clan."

A couple of days later, at Mt. Lan of Kunlun Mountains;

In the middle of the day, all of a sudden, dark clouds gathered on top of Mt. Lan and thunder rumbled among the clouds so loud that it alerted several experts of the above 7-circle realm in the thousand-kilometer range.

Meanwhile, the supreme beings and demigods living elsewhere in the world had their gaze fixed in the direction where Mt. Lan is located as the figure sitting on top of it was bombarded with lightning strikes one after another.

Sylvandria's body was protected by the barrier of divine energy as she was in a deep meditative state.

Lan Ju, the zheng also added an additional layer of security by conjuring another barrier on her own, shielding her against the lightning strikes that intended to burn her to ashes for going against heaven.

Meanwhile, inside her mindscape, Sylvandria was fighting against an identical image of her but with more skills and mastery. Unfortunately, she wasn't on the side of victory.

Looking down at Sylvandria who was barely supporting herself from collapsing completely onto the ground and taking heavy breaths, her opponent pointed the blade at her and spoke coldly, "Give up, Sylvandria. You cannot change your fate."

An agitated Sylvandria shouted back, "I refuse."

"I don't sense any love from you for that mortal. There's no need for you to swear your loyalty to him, just because your body has been defiled," replied the mirror self. As Sylvandria tried to get up, she further added, "Purity should be within the soul, not the body that will be returned to the earth over the passage of time."

Upon getting up, Sylvandria put her hand on her stomach and said, "Because of our connection, you can only see my memories. You don't know the condition of my body, do you?"

At once, the mirror self's facial expression changed, "That's impossible."

"It's not about the loyalty, Goddess Faenya. I'm fighting for something far more precious enough to risk the erasure of my existence forever," Sylvandria raised her hand to conjure a divine sword in her hands to continue their fight.

However, the mirror self didn't fight her for some reason. Instead, she put away the sword and spoke, "Very well. I'll let you free. However, when the day arrives, I'll come for you. Be prepared for it. No matter what kind of intention a being has, the one who goes against the way of heaven must face consequences."

She disappeared from the spot after giving a warning, leaving Sylvandria on one of her knees, trying not to lose consciousness.

Meanwhile, on the outside, her lightning tribulation went through smoothly without facing any potential injuries at all until her cultivation realm finally pushed through the wall of the supreme realm.

The divine energy erupted from her on all sides had destroyed the barrier conjured by Zheng while the clouds disappeared from the sky.

Staring at the sky, she mumbled, "I'm always prepared to face the punishment."
