Chapter 2006: God Realm Powerhouses
“What makes you think they are weak?” Arion was surprised to hear that from Tang Shaoyang. He thought Tang Shaoyang already saw the full potential of the cultivator because the guy was so adamant about getting here despite his warning.
Tang Shaoyang shared the detection result with Arion.
“He is in the 9th Stage Immortal Emperor Realm. That’s the third-highest rank in cultivator, yet I can easily catch him, and he’s clearly afraid of Clementine. He seems to realize that he could not win against Clementine. He has no confidence in his own strength.”
Arion chuckled when he heard Tang Shaoyang comparing Clementine and these cultivators. However, he quickly realized that it had not been long since Tang Shaoyang became an Administrator. Tang Shaoyang did not know much about the administrator’s history.
“You are wrong. First, you can’t use Clementine as a comparison to these people. Cut them some slack and maybe compare them with our Chief Administrator instead. The Team Viper had three Chief Administrators, and they were wiped out in a single ambush without being able to send a warning to us.”
“Second, you said he is the third-highest rank. You haven’t met the second-highest or the highest-ranked cultivator yet. I think it’s only fair if you compare the highest realm cultivator with Clementine. She is an old monster, and rumor says that she is one of the founders of the Administrator.”
“Third, why do you think the Administrator can stand until now while maintaining authority? Why did the Void Cult never try to attack us again after their first attack? Despite having an ex-Executive Administrator, they never attempted to attack us again?”
Arion got Tang Shaoyang interested in the last part. There was a history that the Administrator had been attacked. The attack was initiated by the ex-Executive Administrator, who was one of three emperors of the Void Cult. The attack was considered a success, but they failed to wipe out the Administrator.
“Why?”
“Because we have three ancient monsters they feared. One of them is Clementine. Or else why do you think the Void Cult is hiding in the Void Realm?” Arion grinned proudly when he mentioned Clementine as one of three ancient monsters.
“What about the second and third ones?” Tang Shaoyang asked. No one told him about this, or maybe people just assumed that he knew about it.
Arion was surprised at first, but then he let out a chuckle. Understanding Tang Shaoyang, it made more sense that Tang Shaoyang did not know anything about this.
“Ah, yeah. It makes sense for you not to know that. But you should learn about their background, and be smart enough not to offend them. Not because they are extremely powerful as a faction, but they also have many strong subordinates and vassals. You don’t want to mess with them.”
“I will be generous to give you some information. The second ancient monster is Andre Chiron Aldebaran. Does the name ring a bell to you?”
Tang Shaoyang recognized Andre, one of the people who did not mind him getting killed by Palmas, who was also an Executive Administrator who targeted him. Andre was, in fact, on his watch list.
“I know him. He is one of the Executive Administrators who wants me to die.”
Arion clapped his forehead, “Not that. Aldebaran. Do you recognize the name?”
Tang Shaoyang raised his right eyebrow, confused. Why should he know about this Aldebaran? He tried too hard to recall if he had encountered anyone with such a name. He shook his head.
Arion massaged the space between his eyes, “Yep, I’m wrong. Why would I expect you to know that, right? Literally one of the strongest factions that stood as a family. That’s the Aldebaran Family, and just so you know, someone as ancient as Andre is not the head of the Aldebaran Family. It means the current head of the Aldebaran Family might be stronger than Andre. At least, that’s the rumor.”
Tang Shaoyang certainly took a note, adding Andre and the Aldebaran Family to the watch list. He would not look for trouble unless they came for him and his world. Regardless of Andre’s authority and massive force, if they came for him, then he would not shy away from the battle. He would never submit to anyone.
“The third one?”
Arion could see the lack of interest from Tang Shaoyang. He believed it was because Tang Shaoyang did not know the history of the Aldebaran Family. How they gained so much power until today, and their terrifying past that almost terrorized the God Realm. However, he expected such a reaction from Tang Shaoyang as he recalled the first impression he got from Tang Shaoyang.
Even when he was not a God Rank back then, he dared to fight the Divine Church fearlessly. There was also an altercation with the White Mystery, who tried to recruit him. Even though Tang Shaoyang was not a God Rank, he remained fearless and fought back. The memory of three God Ranks ganged on Tang Shaoyang, who, as a Demi-God Rank back then, was still fresh in his mind.
“The third ancient monster of our administrator is Harmond Holdver Araeberal. I believe you don’t know Araeberal as well, huh?”
Arion shook his head helplessly at Tang Shaoyang, who barely knew the knowledge of the God Realm’s powerhouse. He thought Tang Shaoyang should be prepared since the Tang Empire entered the God Realm. The God Realm was calm and peaceful on the surface, but a war between factions was a common occurrence in the God Realm. Whether it was for territory, dungeons, or even a woman. All kinds of troubles were in the God Realm, yet this man didn’t know the real powerhouse of the God Realm until now.
“Harmond is the Araeberal Dynasty’s Dynast-Prime. The same faction that allowed our blood monster to join the war against the Murim Alliance back then. If you are curious about them, you should consult them because they might know more about the cultivators.”
Arion was surprised to see that Tang Shaoyang looked interested when he mentioned the Araeberal Dynasty. He assumed the confusion in Tang Shaoyang’s eyes as an interest.
“Don’t tell me you know about the Araeberal Dynasty?”
Tang Shaoyang looked up and shook his head, “No, I don’t know them until you tell me. Never had the chance to meet their people in my trial. What I am curious about is, what is Dynast-Prime? Is it an Advisor title, or a minister?”
Arion’s expression told everything. He went blank when he learned what his new friend was interested in. It had nothing to do with the Araeberal Dynasty or even Harmond. No, the worst part was that his friend was not interested at all. Like what kind of powerhouse the Araeberal Dynasty was, or even how long they had existed?
Arion let out a disappointed sigh, just like how a father was disappointed at his son, but he still answered the question, “It’s the same as an Emperor for an empire. They call it Dynast-Prime for the dynasty. It’s just another title for an Emperor or a King.”
Tang Shaoyang nodded his head and glanced at the blood sphere, “Are you sure she is okay? Isn’t it taking too long already?”
A few minutes passed, yet there was no sign that Clementine would go out of the blood sphere. He thought she had killed them all already, but it was not the case with how much time she took.
“She should be fine. In fact, she might be enjoying her meal. As you said, those cultivators were too weak to harm Clementine.”
Tang Shaoyang nodded while his Chaos Eyes checked the surroundings. It seemed like Arion had taken care of the remaining cultivators with the help of others. The situation was under control, and the main base was safe. But then his thoughts went back to the power house that Arion mentioned.
“I guess only the administrator is the only one who cares for the Void Cult, huh?” He muttered in a low voice.
Arion glanced at Tang Shaoyang, “What do you mean? They are parasites of the God Realms, and everyone is aware of it, and everyone wants to get rid of the Void Cult.”
“I don’t feel that way. You mentioned many strong factions to me. The Ancient Kingdom, the Arae… Araeberal Dynasty, and the Aldebaran Family. You told me how strong they were, yet the Void Cult is still alive today.”
Tang Shaoyang turned toward Arion with a deadpan expression, “Are you telling me with all these people and powers, you can’t wipe out a Void Cult when I did it in one encounter. You make it seem like killing one of the emperors of the Void Cult is not a big deal compared to these powerhouses. So how could they not kill the leader of the Void Cult?”
“My conclusion is that they didn’t try to kill or wipe out the Void Cult even though they have the power. It means they don’t care about the Void Cult. I can guess the reason for their lack of interest in wiping out the Void Cult. It’s because there’s no benefit to them. Because the Void Cult is smart enough not to mess with the powerhouse.”
Tang Shaoyang felt like he was not far from the truth. The Dragon Realm alone could single-handedly wipe out the Void Cult, and if all factions work together, the Void Cult would be forced to hide in the Void Realm for the rest of their lives.
“Our junior is right. There’s no benefit for them to wipe out the Void Cult. In fact, the Void Cult’s existence benefits them because the Administrator has to split our attention. It gives the big powerhouses a leeway and more freedom.”
Clementine’s calm voice rang in the air. She came out of her blood cocoon with no wound; in fact, there was an excitement in her eyes. It felt like she became even more energetic.
“You mentioned that our junior is all brute and no brainer. He is quite smart to catch on so quickly. Usually, it will take years to figure out how we still have the Void Cult problem until today. That’s right, those powerhouses refused to cooperate with us. They loathed our authority and also our privileges. Or maybe some of the big powerhouses work together with the Void Cult. I have my suspicions, but I have no evidence to back it up.”
Arion’s eyes widened, and he elbowed the red-haired woman, “Watch your words, Clementine. They could use your words against you, and you might lose your position.”
Clementine let out a chuckle, “If they can use my words against me, I would have lost my position long ago, Arion.”
She flew higher to check the situation, “We have taken care of everything, right?”
She nodded, then she glanced at Arion, “Also, it’s rude to call a lady an ancient monster. If I hear it again from you, you will get a beating for sure.”
