He started panicking, he continue to use his powerful soul to sense his cultivation but even a hint of it is unavailable to him, his heart quickly gone cold, he realised that he might have ti cultivate once again but before he could think this, Hentai quickly informed him about his present condition.
[Master, do not be worried about your cultivation, because of the act of rebirth have an extremely harsh requirement, I had to seal your cultivation to preserve it.]
He quickly heaved a sigh of relief when he heard this, he then look below and saw everyone was still kneeling for him, he flew down and said "Everyone of you may rise."
Even though his cultivation might have been sealed, he still have to preserve the dignity of his kingdom, his aura that was tempered by all of what he experienced in this world, coupled with his overbearing soul might cause the people to feel that they aren't a match against him.
He knew that this was just a false bravado that he was putting up, Sans and those that are connected to him via soul contract knew about his current condition which was only the peak of Body Tempering Rank or Gold Rank.
Shadowslash then looks at a certain beautiful mature looking woman and he couldn't help but feel a tremble on his heart, a sense of kinship immediately appear on his heart and his eyes nearly teared up.
He instantly knew who this woman is and he started walking towards her, a gentle aura starts to exude out of his body, his earlier domineering aura disperse and was changed into an extremely gentle and kind aura.
The beautiful mature looking woman started tearing up when she saw him approaching, there were five women behind her that also has the same reaction as she has, the five of them are all nation destroying beauties, they also have fox tails and fox ears.
They were his family, his mother (Mary), his four sisters Lucy, Dorothy, Foxxy and Flora, the other beautiful mature looking woman was his aunt Flare, they have been separated all these years.
Without any hesitation all of them hugs each other and the girls started crying, Shadowslash wasn't crying but he was very emotional right now, this was his family in this world, they have been through numerous difficult times and always have each other's back.
Now that they were reunited once again, their emotions quickly took over them and the sound of crying and laughter sounded out, those that are watching looks at the heartwarming scene with different thoughts in their heads.
Shadowslash then looks at the people that came and felt extremely gratified, he then shouted "Everyone, I, Shadowslash am honored to have all of you gathered here!"
Sans have already informed him about the presence of the people in the area, Leafinia was looking at Sans with a pout, she had realised that she was a step slower compared to him.
She wanted to be the person who would inform Shadowslash about the past events that had happened during his absence but she had sensed Sans spiritual sense moving towards her master and knew that she was too late.
Shadowslash saw that Sans was looking at Leafinia in a rather smug manner and saw her angry expression and couldn't help but shook his head, he realised that the two have formed a rivalry during his absence.
But it seems that it was like a friendly sibling rivalry and nothing more, with each other as inspiration, it was no longer surprising when he sensed their current level.
Shadowslash then had the war memorial ceremony resumes, it is to pay respect to all of those that have died ten years, when the ceremony ended, everyone had a feast.
Toxic have arrived and told Shadowslash about what the scarabs have done during his absence and he couldn't help but tremble in anger, he quickly calms himself down and realised that unlike his other subordinates, the scarabs aren't that intelligent.
They would attack anyone if it weren't for him but since he had disappeared throughout all of this time, they have been wrecking havoc all over this world.
Other than the Lunar Rune Scarabs and the Solar Rune Scarabs that use most of their time cultivating in their specific cultivation time period, all the other types of scarabs recklessly attack those that they encounter.
Their primary target are still the chaos beings but still they kill hundreds of thousands of beings of the world, fortunately they retained their behavior that Hentai have ingrained in their very soul, the act of devouring their weaker kinds.
This had at least decrease the speed of them multiplying and with Toxic actively hunting the scarabs their number haven't reached any staggering increase and have always stayed on tens of thousands.
Shadowslash quickly waves his hand and open Hentai's chamber for the scarabs, without any hesitation, all of the scarabs flew towards the entrance of the chamber.
The scarabs that seems to block the light of the sky started disappearing into the hole and finally all of them entered the chambers and Hentai professionally separated each one of them into specific group.
When the people saw the scarabs disappearing all of them cheered, the only ones that the scarabs doesn't attack were those that have Shadowslash's scent, it seems that even though they aren't that smart, they are still loyal to their owner.
Sans heaved a sigh of relief when he saw that the scarabs have finally been dealt with, he and the others have been working hard rescuing those that were targeted by the scarabs or driving them away towards the location of the chaos knights.
Shadowslash felt guilty about the innocent individuals that the scarabs have devoured, Sans and the others could sense what he was now feeling and Leafinia quickly informed him that those that were affected by the scarabs were helped by their kingdom.
This at least eased off some of his guilt when he heard that the Thousand Race Empire have been doing all of what they can to improve the life of those that were affected, he couldn't help but sigh, he then started thinking of creating a scarab king to control the scarabs, so that they wouldn't rampage like this ever again.
But this plan also has some drawback or consequences, if the scarab king ever managed to escape his control, then it would be able to reign terror over this world and even cause terror to spread to other worlds.
Fortunately he could forcefully brand a soul mark unto beings that he and Hentai create, especially now that Grim and him have fused souls, making his soul much more stronger than even Saints.
The people celebrated his return and their victory all of those years against the invasion of the chaos world, Shadowslash kept looking at Strawberry, he was still shocked she managed to rebuilt the Defender Kingdom without his help.
This made him proud, he also started to feel the pressure about the fact that many of his family members managed to break through Saint Realm while his cultivation continue to stay on Xiantian Emperor Realm.
He then looks at the Saints that are members of the major forces of this world and he spoke "After this, I have an announcement to make that would affect this world, especially the Saints, this announcement will be released, a month after I returned to my empire."
The other Saints became confused but those that are knowledgeable started breathing in a hurried manner indicating that they are very excited, they already have some idea what his announcement is all about.
Shadowslash then discuss something with Strawberry and Zultan, when he realised that the island they were standing on was one of his subordinates, he became surprised before smiling in a jovial manner.
The whale that he had saved all of those years have repaid him by helping Strawberry and the others rebuilt the Defender Kingdom, the importance of this place would increase once he open the connection of this world to other worlds.
He then raise his hand and the world responds with his call and the sky that was already dark have started to become golden, it bathe the island with auspicious light making the plant and the low level animals to become invigorated.
Most of the blessing went to Blue or the giant whale that was carrying the island, because of this he started evolving and he became more and more one with the island, transforming his innate attribute to Water, Earth and Wood.
This had made him perfect for the Defender Island, now he doesn't need to devour large amount of food to continue on his unmoving state, he could absorb energy just by standing with the help of the island on his back and the energy in the sea.
Shadowslash nodded when he sensed the changes of this island, the Saints and those that have keen senses have also sensed the change that had happened in the island.
