They often say that a tiger father doesn't raise a dog son, but there's another side to that saying. To raise a dog son, there must also be a dog father.

As inky black mana flared out and overtook Wang Chen's aura, this was the only thought that came to Damien's mind. To do such a thing was probably the stupidest course of action there was.

After all, they weren't in an isolated space, nor were the people involved in the current scuffles even close to the only ones around. For Wang Chen to openly flaunt his traitor status was worse than stupid.

The second that inky black mana appeared in the air, the expressions of those 4th class existences that were gathered simultaneously changed. Cold gazes congregated on Wang Chen.

And before he could even finish prepping whatever attack he was planning to pull, a horde of all-encompassing auras pressed down on his back and forced his knees to the ground.

"When the matter was a personal grudge, we had no right nor desire to intervene. However, Wang Chen, you have made a huge mistake this time."

A man who looked in his late 20s stepped into the air. His hair was so blonde it was closer to gold in color, and his eyes were a ruby red similar to Rose's. When Damien saw him, his instincts screamed danger.

'That is the Palace Master of the Jade Heavenly Palace. The current strongest active expert on the Cloud Plane.'

Tian Yang's mental transmission entered Damien's mind, causing his eyes to widen. He knew it was wrong to be fooled by looks after meeting people like Elvira and the Phoenix Matriarchs, these tens of thousands of year-old women who were still heaven-shaking beauties, but he still ended up making that mistake.

The Palace Master of the Jade Heavenly Palace. The first-ranked expert in the entirety of the Cloud Plane. He truly had an imposing air that matched those titles.

'Hm? Wait a second…didn't he say active experts?'

Damien noticed the discrepancy in Tian Yang's words, glaring at the latter suspiciously.

'And do you count as an active expert or not?'

Tian Yang smirked. 'This old man has long retired from the scene. If not, how could an insolent brat like you manage to become my disciple?'

'Tch. Pretentious old man, don't think I don't know how much you wanted to teach me. You can pretend all you want, but you'll never fool me.'

'Whatever you say.' Tian Yang rolled his eyes.

While the two were conversing, the Palace Master of the Jade Heavenly Palace arrived before Wang Chen.

Wang Chen felt a cold sweat pouring down his back.

"You, as a reputable leader of our Central Continent, have sold your soul to the enemy. You have become a traitor to all humanity. Do you understand the consequences of what you've done?" The Palace Master spoke slowly.

Wang Chen gritted his teeth, but didn't respond. He was trying hard to rouse his mana and flee, but it wasn't just the Palace Master who was pressuring him. He was facing the joint pressure of tens of existences that surpassed his level. Even his mana was moving sluggishly.

The Palace Master gave him a sideways glance. "It seems you have no intention to speak. Very well, I also do not have a habit of negotiating with traitors."

"I, Shangguan Yu, as the Palace Master of the Jade Heavenly Palace, shall execute the authority brought about by my position. Today, I shall sentence this traitor and everyone related to him to death! Do not leave a single one behind, whether it be a dog or a chicken, kill them all!"

""Yes, Palace Master!""

An array of shouts rang out. A slaughter began. No matter where they tried to run, those geniuses and elders of the Wang Clan were exterminated rapidly under the mass of assailants that followed the Palace Master's orders.

Shangguan Yu swiped his hand down casually, severing Wang Chen's head like he was killing a bug. It was effortless.

"Send word back to the sect. A force shall be created for the sake of wiping this scourge off of our Cloud Plane. The main family, branch families, anyone with even a drop of Wang blood inside their bodies, slaughter them all."

"Yes, Palace Master." The disciple next to him responded promptly and carried out his orders. Damien watched the whole show play out from the sidelines.

This was the truth of the world. Even though he felt it was a bit much to annihilate any and everyone related to the Wang Family, he could also understand why it was done.

It was just as he said. There was no mercy for traitors.

Damien glanced at the Palace Master.

[All-Seeing Eyes have been activated.]

[Status]

Shangguan Yu

'Hm?'

That was all he could say. But it wasn't like the Palace Master's name was helpful information at all, since the latter had already declared it only a few moments prior.

"What an interesting boy."

Damien looked up in shock, only to find those ruby-red eyes and that golden hair only inches away from his face.

His eyes hardened as he backed away. 'His reputation isn't groundless at all. This kind of power isn't something I can hope to see through at my level. He's a completely different breed compared to Wang Chen.'

"Now, now. How can you run away at a time like this? If you want to invade someone else's privacy, shouldn't you be prepared to have the same done to you?"

Damien clicked his tongue. "Yeah, my bad. But still, what's the harm in wanting to see how high the wall I need to climb is?"

"Oho? Tian Yang, you've truly found yourself an interesting disciple."

"Hahahaha! Isn't he? This brat has quite the annoying personality, but his talent is still amazing nonetheless." Tian Yang replied.

Damien rolled his eyes and teleported away, arriving next to Rose once more. He wanted nothing to do with Shangguan Yu.

That guy was an old fox on the level of Tian Yang. He didn't like the feeling of having to constantly have his guard up about what he did or said, lest it be used against him at a later time.

'I get the feeling that he's scheming something. Not something related to me or this event at all, just the fact that he's scheming something.'

It wasn't even a danger sense. Shangguan Yu just felt like someone whose every word was meant to lure you deeper into a trap, so that one day you'd be unable to escape his grasp.

It was a terrifying kind of person to have as an enemy, but an incredibly useful kind as an ally. Though, even as an ally, you'd always be forced to have your guard up.

'I can't see through him at all, whether it be his status or mana. Let's just hope he's an ally. If worst comes to worst, I'm not the one who has to deal with him. I don't have the power to meddle in that level of affairs.'

Damien shook off his thoughts. Since Tian Yang was occupying Shangguan Yu, he didn't have to worry about interacting with that old fox. It meant he could go back to focusing on what he actually came here for.

"My lovely wife, how was it? Your husband is way better than you expected, isn't he?" Damien stuck out his chest with pride.

Rose giggled. "Indeed, my dear husband has become an even greater man than he once was. How can I not be proud to be his wife?"

She latched into his arm with a smile. Even though their romantic moment had been interrupted, this kind of casual interaction was just as good. She simply wanted to savor the fact that they were back together.

But she suddenly remembered something. "Ah, how rude of me! I was so immersed in you that I forgot to greet the one you came with. So, is she my new sister?"

"Cough…perhaps…" Damien averted his eyes.

"Hm, hm…" Rose hummed contemplatively. "If it's her body, then she definitely meets the standard. As for her personality, I'll need to experience it to see for myself. Dear husband, how about you leave us alone for a bit so I can get to know my new sister better?"

Damien felt cold sweat leaking down his back. He felt that he was probably in a scarier situation than Wang Chen was before he got executed a bit ago.

But he couldn't do anything besides wish Ruyue and leave. Getting involved in this matter would just be asking for his death.

Instead, he turned his attention elsewhere. There was one more reunion he had been wanting to have.

Looking at the blue-haired beauty among the sea of fairies from the Supreme Fairy Paradise, he smiled.

But at that moment, a sudden disturbance took place in the mana in the atmosphere.

Nobody knew who said it, but as soon as the words came out, the previous tense and excited atmosphere returned in an instant. The matters of Damien and the Wang Clan left their minds entirely.

"The Empyrean Dragon Realm is opening!"
