Chapter 441: Post Breakthrough

The flash of light finally dimmed down while his pupils dilated with the same speed as the graceful hair of auburn fluttered under the illumination of the moon. He swallowed his saliva as his lips quivered unbeknownst to him. He had a hard time swallowing his heart as his eyelids were locked above. The dry eyes were soon moistened with glimmering thin of liquid that leaking out from the edges. He forced out a grin before crossing his arms. He smiled to the point that one couldn't see his eyes, but the genuine of his heart exuded out of him as his armor gradually vanished into the night.

His bright yellow bathrobe revealed itself as it fluttered against the strong wind. The feat of beating heaven's tribulation seemed minuscule in his thought. He knew the woman in front of her could do so much more. There was nothing that she couldn't do ever since that day in his memory. Though it was all still vague for him, the feeling that he currently felt right now was as real as the destruction of the island below. 

"Looks like you get what you wanted, life is pretty funny don't you think?" grinned Lyon. 

Cecile's eyes slightly opened wide as she shook her head before grinning against him, "I do want to taste what it feels like to have a parent, and it looks like you made a miracle again. However, that was just a side wish, my true wish has always been with you."

Jin and Priscila were looking at the two of them from below. Both of them had no idea what their daughter and their son-in-law were talking about, however, seeing their emotions so naked to the plain of sight, they knew they had no place to interfere. Despite the abundance of worries swelling up inside her heart, Jin kept her in her place without budging. Their daughter had ascended ten levels, a whole realm even before the day started yet. Though he had lost his prestigious castle that was built on his blood and sweat, it was nothing other than gaining a powerful son and a powerful daughter.

Luke was still gawking at his face before he made a harsh swallow, in an effort to pacify his nervousness. The woman that he knew from just a little kid had just broken through the common sense of a cultivator. It didn't even at the end of the night before her cultivation had surpassed his. Even with the Treas family treasures, there was no way that he could do what she just did. He couldn't shake nor nod his head as his thoughts were at the thin line of a dream.

Sophia couldn't believe her eyes as she saw what she had just done. Her primary talent and her prowess still far exceed even her wildest imagination. Triggering heaven's manifestation level of tribulation, she just kept breaking through before she finally attained the peak of godhood cultivator's strength. At such a young age, the powerful display of her might was worth anticipating, but in the next meeting in the Summit of Geniuses would she even come after even being invited numerous times?

"Hah..." Ayumu let out a wry smile as she looked above her. Her short pink hair was slightly disheveled as she looked above. She couldn't believe it but it was right under her sight. The idol of every young women cultivator, broadly speaking, the mortal world, had cemented her position at the peak of the generation. 

Madoku had not commented but Madoka had nodded several times. Seeing that the woman her best friend looked up to was actually amazing and definitely better than her older sister, she could only agree.

The winner of the throne was not basking in jealousy as one would have thought. She didn't know that Cecile, the untouchable cold empress, had something like that on her carry-on. (That mana that was pouring out of her ring was the highest of grade that could only speak in legend. Rumor has it that that quality of mana could only be found in places where nature was untouched. Not even those that followed the devil's path and using a method such as absorbing mana straight out of a fresh corpse could gain something that pure) thought Yunesia. 

Her curiosity swelled as she looked at both of them. At the moment of their arrival, she noticed that the island had vanished from sight, and a thousand men that joined together to cast a spell was nowhere to be seen despite being directly outside of the palace when they chanted them. 

(However) thought contemplated Yunesia before she puckered up her purple lips to a smile. She landed her focus, not on the empress but instead on the one she called her husband. The one that she had been interested in. There was nothing more mysterious than that young man that danced with his limit every time he had gone all out.

(The fact that he had broken through and also reached peak Godhood realm, had proven that he too did the feat that the empress just did. Despite not triggering  Heaven's Tribulation, the limit of his power was still unknown. Borton was nowhere to be seen and according to his words, he killed Borton's father. An old talented cultivator that was rumored to have reached the Ascending God realm.

(Right at this time, if there is anyone that could explore that place, it would be those two, especially him) thought Yunesia before she took a glance against Ayumu, who had blamed her for her father's condition. 

Yunesia raised her eyebrows before she let out a chuckle as she muttered, "Are you sure that you just want to watch? Don't you want to follow them? To know exactly what they are talking about? I'm sure taken out of the context made you nervous."

His teasing words were meant for the two ladies that suddenly hitch ride her big avian to stay airborne and watched Lyon from up close. The whole fight was nothing special as the two ladies knew that he would win. However, what considered them the most was not the injury that Lyon might have but the relationship between the two that was still vague.

"He already told me beforehand thus I have come prepared," answered Luna as she didn't spare a single glance against her current driver. (I just never thought that it would be so soon) said Luna inwardly.

Lumina chose to stay silent as she looked at the man she had been waiting for a long time. Cecile's whisper still lingered in her ears but she knew that now was not the time to be discussing such a thing with him. 

Kyoko and the rest of the group who looked from afar couldn't hear the exact detail about what they were talking about or if they were even talking at all. However, one thing for sure was that the Auburn Woman successfully attained peak Godhood Realm in under a night. She had performed the same feat that her savior had done and still doing now. 

The beautiful fox woman let out a sigh, "Even though I have nine tails and ofter made men knelt and beg, I have to admit, that woman is really beautiful despite having, no, it's also because she had the optimum athletic body while keeping her feminine trait. Did heaven fell asleep when she was born or something?"

There was a hint of slight jealousy from the azure lady with a red eye, something that Ryona would have never thought possible. Her overseer was the mature type so the development of her words just now opened Ryona's eyes. She could see, even though just a glimpse, Kyoko's other side.

"Hehe, overseer, are you challenged by her presence?" teased Ryona as she jumped and landed on her sight. 

Kyoko didn't even take a glance at her before asking, "Aren't you worried? He might not be interested in you anymore."

"Eh! Don't say something like that!" said Ryona as she immediately changed her mood. She kept on looking at her breast before looking at the overseer that could even beat the empress in terms of size. She broke down as black lines covered her face before sulking and crying in the corner. 

"Damn! Big brother did it again!" said Jugen as he shook his head with a smile. The pride he had in his big brother could only expand. He had first met him back in the Nostria Academy, though it was short, their friendship lasts, especially... 

Jugen darted his glance toward one of Lyon's copy still holding her unconscious sister. She was not included in the massive spatial magic since her anti-mana-based meridian source naturally canceled out mana-based magic and technique. Although there was a minimum bruise on her, being her younger brother, he knew how fatigue she was at the moment.

(Never thought an ox like you could get tired sister) thought Jugen before he was taken back as he saw her slightly twitching her eyebrows. The blood rush that was spiked by his heart slowly calmed down before he made a harsh swallow.
