Sashi stood there, her expression ugly. She wasn't sure who had done this. She had swept her Spiritual Sense over, but she hadn't been able to find or sense anything. Whoever it was certainly had the ability to hide it from her.

She forced herself to calm down. Then, without any other choice, she contacted her husband.

"Xalvador, there's been a problem."

There was no response from the communication device, at least not immediately. Sashi had no choice but to wait patiently, something that she had gotten used to. She suppressed the annoyance in her heart, clenching her jaw.

Xalvador had reacted the same way to his own son's death.

Well, this wasn't exactly true. He planned to do something perfunctory, but when he learned that it was Elena's husband that had done, he chose to let it go, saying that he had no plans on interfering in the matters of the younger generation.

Sashi knew that this was, in part, Xalvador's way of balancing out the situation.

He had 15 wives and dozens of children. If they started fighting amongst one another, there was little he could do about it. If it was a random individual who had targeted his son, he could justify doing something. But since this was almost certainly in retaliation for something that Janus had done to Elena, he let it slide.

Plus, Martial God culture was different. Janus didn't even share Xalvador's Divine Wing Bloodline. Instead, he had the Holy King Bloodline. This made their relationship much weaker. Maybe if Janus had the same lineage like some of his fellow brothers and sisters, Xalvador might have cared enough to at least reprimand Elena a bit. But as things went, he didn't even bother to contact Elena at all as though he just didn't give a damn.

Many of Xalvador's wives hadn't even been virgins when he married them. Sometimes, he had even chosen them on a whim because he was feeling particularly kinky that day. Sashi, in specific, had just been randomly taken by him on a day he happened to be enamored with women with particularly large breasts.

Honestly, there was almost no difference between his wives and his concubines. If there was a difference he would draw, it would be his mood on the first day he bedded them and also whether they still had their Primordial Yins or not. Anything other than that was meaningless...

Aside from three of them.

"What is it?" A lazy voice came from the other side.

Sashi controlled the urge to roll her eyes when she heard the moans of a woman on the other side. The most annoying part about being Xalvador's wife was though he didn't care about their virgin-status, none of them were allowed to seek out other men. She might be lucky to get a single visit every few decades, and every other time she was just in limbo with her fingers.

"The foundation's been compromised," Sashi said.

There was another pause on the line, but Sashi could hear the shuffling. It was clear that Xalvador didn't like what he had heard, and it was actually enough for him to stop.

"You'll have to take the brunt," he finally said.

"I'm aware."

Xalvador chuckled. "My wife, you sound upset."

"You didn't even come and see your own son's corpse," Sashi said coldly.

There was a line Sashi knew that she had to toe. She couldn't be too willful and couldn't push Xalvador too far. However, in a situation like this one where she was essentially helping him out, she could push a little harder than normal.

Ultimately, it wasn't like there were no benefits to being his wife. All things considered, 15 women actually wasn't that many compared to the usual promiscuity of the Martial Gods. And at times like this, she could pout to get more out of him.

"Yes, yes, you're right. But you know how I feel about such things. The dead cannot come back, what is the difference between seeing him or not?"

"And what about me, am I not alive?"

Xalvador chuckled. "You're right. I will come and see you tomorrow, how about it?"

Sashi felt a quiver between her legs, but she forcefully pushed down the eagerness.

"You have to give me another son. I spend so much time alone, and raising Janus was the only thing that gave me joy."

"Okay, whatever my lovely wife wants."

Only when she heard this did Sashi nod in satisfaction. This could be said to be more than killing two birds with a single stone, it was more like four or five.

For one, they were all Sky Gods here, having children wasn't easy. This request basically forced Xalvador to visit her often for the next several decades at the very least. She would get attention she wouldn't have received since the first few decades they were married.

Second, it was hard to have status in Xalvador's harem without also having an exceptionally talented child. Of Xalvador's three favorite wives, two of them both had two children each that had soared beyond the Heavens. As for the third, that being Elena's mother... well, she was a special case because she turned out to be one of those geniuses herself, and she had also birthed a daughter whose mutated Bloodline had gained quite some attention as well.

Sashi was obviously a great talent as well. She had managed to complete the Genius Stream to reach the Omniscient Realm, albeit barely. But she couldn't compare to Elena's mother, and neither could her son compare to those four.

This was another chance she would have at drawing lots. Maybe this time, she would win the lottery.

But first, she would have to take some licks first.

BOOM!

The skies shook.

Sashi put the communication device away and took a breath.

The first thing she heard were the rattling chains. The cold shiver that went up her spine was so visceral that her legs almost went weak.

She clenched her fists and forced herself to look up.

At that moment, a trio of Dao Lords appeared, a long line of rattling chains behind them... silvery blue chains.

Sashi didn't resist, putting out her wrists.

One of the Dao Lord indifferently flicked a finger and a pair of shackles clamped down onto her. She felt that she had fallen into an abyss, her Dao Heart trembling violently.

She took deep breaths, closing her eyes to calm herself.The source of this content ɪs ɴoᴠel Fɪre.nᴇt

Without another word, she was dragged away.

One of the Dao Lords remained, waving a hand and forming a dome of chains that sealed off the aura of the home.

Ryu watched this scene from a long distance away before turning and vanishing into the distance.

He didn't think that this would end Sashi's life. He had a deep understanding of the Martial Gods after a few months in their territory, and it had allowed him to grasp the fact that what they cared most about were results.

Them capturing Sashi like that was definitely for nothing more than show. Maybe if she had no background, they would indeed take action to kill her, but because of who her husband was, she would be fine. Even if she didn't take action, it was because they didn't want to.

Obviously, there were almost certainly people who knew that Ryu had been the one to expose Sashi, but what difference did it make? It wasn't as though he had planted it himself.

No. The real reason Ryu had done this was to deal with a garden snake for Elena. Now, she would be free to grow until he returned.

As for him, his destination was elsewhere. He wanted to return to the Dragon Clan and potentially find out about any hidden Guilds there might be, but first... he thought that it was maybe about time Little Silk became a Lord Beast.

The once little butterfly didn't need much more of a push anymore. She just needed a little push and then she would enter her little cocoon again.

Ryu smiled and shook his head. Having a butterfly for a beast companion was truly inconvenient. But now, he could speed up the process on his own by warping time around her in his Inner World.

But the catch was that he needed to surround her with all the energy she would need.

'Hm... I've never used Primordial Chaotic Ice Qi before... could be interesting.'

Ryu grinned.
