Chapter 57 Thoughts Of The Empress
"This subordinate has a daughter about the same age as Victor and she has a heavenly physique. How about marrying her off to Victor?"
He hadn't even finished what he was about to say before he felt the incredibly cold stare of the sect master sending a chill down his spine.
"I warn you not to have any plans for Victor, and if I find out that your daughter tries to get to him, I'll take her fragile life."
Xue Yan couldn't understand in her thoughts why she was so easily enraged, but remembering his daughter's appearance and character, her eyebrows rose.
'She's dangerous…' Even though Victor confessed to her, he might have changed his mind and decided to stop pursuing her by trading her for Zhang Ya, just the thought of it triggered this woman's high level of anger and she decided that she wouldn't let her see him.
Thinking about it, she waved her sleeve and disappeared.
Only after she disappeared from sight did Elder Zhang sigh in relief, to be honest he was a bit surprised at the sect master's strange behavior, although the sect forbade relationships between men and women to lose such a genius over this rule would be the most ridiculous act in the sect's existence.
There was this rule in the sect and it was a bit wrong in his opinion, Elder Zhang understood that Victor was now at a young age and he might be hot-headed, what if he fell in love and as the sect rules forbade it...
After thinking this way, the elder came to the conclusion that he could easily leave the sects as he himself would have done and this option was the mildest to be honest. Other top sects of both the righteous and demonic ways and the Blue Wind Empire could have done the same.
The Elder didn't know what kind of character Victor had, so he thought he wouldn't be too surprised if Victor decided to switch to another sect because of women or rules.
'Even if the master has forbidden it... My temple can't miss out.' Elder Zhang's eyes became determined at this moment.
**********
Northern Region. The Empire of the Blue Wind. The Imperial Palace.
"Are you certain the information is accurate?"
The man dressed in black knelt and confidently replied:
"Yes, an unknown man named Victor appeared in the Temple of the Dark Moon and the sect master personally suspended the testing of the disciples to let him take the test. At first the stele did not react to his touch but after a few breaths the light emanating from it engulfed the whole sect area, this had never happened before and only after the light disappeared the stele returned to its previous state and an inscription was engraved on it that this man had a divine physique. There were at least ten thousand people who witnessed this incident, the master of the Dark Moon Temple seemed to be unaware as well otherwise she would try to hide it."
After the man's words, the woman fell silent for a long time and the hall fell into silence.
'Is it the beginning of the demise of our country?' The woman's mind went into chaos.
Unlike Victor, who didn't understand much about this physique, she clearly knew what the consequences would be if they let him continue to grow.
'Me, Xue Yan and that bitch. Even the three of us possess just a heavenly physique…' The woman sighed bitterly.
She understood that with the demonic woman's protection, killing Victor would be almost impossible and even if she could do it the consequences would be catastrophic not only for her but for the entire country.
She wasn't afraid of Xue Yan since their strength was comparable, but what about ordinary people who didn't practice cultivation?
The wrath of the Dark Moon Temple would spread throughout the Northern Region and only God knew how many people would die. She didn't want to risk it, only to eliminate a possible future threat.
"It's complicated..." The woman rubbed her eyebrows at these thoughts.
She couldn't touch Victor because of the existence of the Temple of the Dark Moon, but neither could she stand idly by and watch him grow and turn into a terrifying enemy she wouldn't dare touch.
If the Blue Wind Empire wasn't in the northern region it would have been idle, but unfortunately that wasn't possible.
Both the Dark Moon Temple and the Blue Wind Empire were located in the same territory, although this piece of land was vast compared to the other three regions, war would still break out at some point.
Under Xue Yan's leadership, the Dark Moon Temple was inactive since the sect master was not an ambitious person, she was content with what she had but what was the case for Victor?
The woman didn't know anything about him at all and it was unknown if he had great ambitions or not, if he did, once he became the sect master or even an elder he might want to absorb the empire to conquer the entire northern region.
It was something she wanted to avoid at all costs.
'The righteous sects will sit idly once they find out.' She understood that besides her, this man's threat extended to the righteous sects. Unlike her who wanted to preserve her country, the righteous sects could not tolerate his existence at all.
Their pride and the teachings that had been passed down for centuries were too absurd. As soon as the righteous sects found out that the demonic sect had a non-crowned monster they would attempt to eliminate this threat at all costs.
Whether he has a good heart or not, the very fact that he was from a demonic sect was that mattered, all the geniuses they had at that point would be garbage that would lie under the feet of such a monster.
They couldn't let that happen.
After thinking about these facts, the woman decided to do nothing for now and just watch from the sidelines as the two sides fought each other. The empire didn't care who would win but the best case scenario was that both sides would suffer massive damage.
"What about this man's background? Did you find out his identity?" - She was curious as to what background this man had, to get such a terrifying talent, she would have been greatly surprised if he came from an ordinary family.
