Grand Ancestral Bloodlines

1765 Fragmented

It could be said that the Dao Lord was truly too foolish. The moment Mae saw through his lie and he attempted to run away, who he was speaking of couldn't have been more obvious.

As long as Mae had been here, how could she not sense the hostility of these people toward her husband? It was precisely because of this that she had drawn a firm line right from the very beginning.

All those that didn't call her a Tatsuya when she met them were taught a lesson by her. Those that were stronger would either be directly ignored or she would use her status to suppress them, if it was possible.

She refused to allow anyone to disrespect her husband, or even further than that, her relationship with her husband.

If anyone trampled on that, she would lash out.

After saying her piece, Mae directly ignored the Dao Lord and left to go see her master. But this time, she wasn't going to report anything. Instead, she was going to ask for leave.

The Dao Lord clenched his fists, furious as he watched Mae walk away, and yet completely unable to do anything.

As much as he wanted to say that Mae's words were nonsense, he wasn't so shameless.

If the disciple of a Dao God didn't become at least a Dao Lord, it would be the first time in history.

It had to be remembered that most disciples of Dao Gods had been chosen before they became Dao Gods. But even then, the vast majority had become Dao Sovereigns at worst. Extremely powerful Dao Sovereign at that.

However, the difference between a disciple chosen before one was a Dao God and after was akin to night and day. If the former were monsters, then the latter were practically deities.

In Mae's case, not only had her master chosen her after she had already become a Dao God, Mae was also her very first disciple, and on top of this, she had gone to seek Mae out.

This trifecta ensure that Mae was on an entirely different level. For her to say that she would become a Dao God in the future almost wasn't nearly confident enough, given the situation.

The more the Dao Lord thought about it, the paler he became. Today, he had truly offended someone he shouldn't have.

He grit his teeth. It was all because of that old bitch. Had she not insisted, this would have never happened. He hadn't wanted to combine the first place.

He turned and rushed away. There was only one way to erase this from Mae's memory. He had to find someone who would offend her far more than he had today, and he also had to make sure that it didn't come back to him.

First, he would have to thrust that old bitch forward, and if he wanted to do that, he would have to find a Dao God from her faction. So long as they were the ones that were mobilized, it would be easy for Mae to forget this moment.

Well, forgetting was impossible. But she certainly wouldn't make him the main perpetrator.

Even in the case that she still held a grudge, she at the very least wouldn't go as far as to wipe out his entire lineage. At this point, that was the best worst-case scenario she could hope for.

This time, the Dao Lord focused his search on a single Dao God and didn't give up, flashing from place to place until he heard a voice that froze him.

"You've been bothering so many of my incarnations, boy. Why have you disturbed my rest?"

A cold sweat pooled on the Dao Lord's body almost instantly. The suppression was so all-encompassing that he almost kneeled and prostrated. He barely managed to hold on to his dignity and bowed deeply instead.

Then, he gave a complete recollection of what had happened in the Rotten Sea this time. On top of that, he made sure to emphasize who it was that had sent him. The last thing he wanted was to offend yet another Dao God. And unlike Mae, this one already was one instead of just about to become one.

"You've disturbed me for a human True Sky God?"

The sweat beaded across the Dao Lord's forehead, but he forced himself to speak.

"I apologize, esteemed one. But I had no choice. Your descendant is far more powerful than I, so I could only comply. Also, there are many odd points about this human being. He should have been stuck in the first layer, but he's already made it to the seventh when last I received a report and he has killed many geniuses, including our own."

The Dao God fell into silence for a long while, but the Dao Lord didn't dare to look up.

"… I care very little about this," the voice finally echoed once more.

What was the purpose of targeting this human? Because of Mae? She wasn't even a pure-blooded Dream Wraith to begin with. The Dao God didn't even know why their descendants were so bored.

Since when were the Dream Wraiths so pathetic?

"It seems that we've been in seclusion for so long that you've all lost any sense of backbone you've ever had.

"The Dream Wraiths had ruled unbothered and unfettered for countless generations. We are the one Clan that cannot be touched by any others, and this had caused you all to become soft."

The Dao Lord trembled fiercely. The tone of the Dao God didn't change, but he still felt as though a great danger was beginning to lurk all around him.

"If this continues, maybe the only Dao God to appear in the next generation truly would be that little girl with impure blood.

"You have all greatly disappointed me."

At that moment, the entire dream world of the Dream Wraiths began to tremble.

Many looked up, not understanding what was happening.

But then their eyes opened wide as the entire world shattered like fragmented glass.
