"Who would have thought that Aria and Spencer had prepared such a wonderful gift for us?" Currently, all the girls in the Dragon Palace were soaking their bodies in the artificial hot spring. The island where Aria previously had lived also had a small hot spring. It was Aria's idea to build an artificial hot spring for everyone in the Dragon Palace to enjoy. Spencer and Watson really liked the idea of the hot spring. "Thank you, Aria.....!!!" Alicia sat beside Julia and thanked Aria. "There is no need to thank me. It was mostly Grandpa Watson who arranged everything." Aria said while waving her hands. After answering, Aria looked around. She could feel the tense atmosphere between Amelia and Lilith. 'So she is the Empress of the Celestial Terrain.' When everyone returned, the mother of the Goddess of Nature also tagged along and came to the Dragon Palace. Now it looked like she was going to start staying with them. As for the troops that she brought along, she sent everyone back. Thanks to the changes that she made in her Empire after listening to Aditya's ideas and suggestions, Amelia could now stay away from her work and live here for months without needing to worry about anything. The main reason why Amelia suddenly decided to stay was definitely because of a certain someone who has been staying here in the Dragon Palace. Once knowing that Aditya was completely fine, Ronnie and Noah chose to return back to their Empire as they had other work to do. Before leaving, both of them told Alicia to let Aditya know that their family was going to visit the Dragon Palace one of these days. "Didn't you have a strange disease that did not let you touch any men?" Amelia mockingly asked. Lilith was totally calm. In fact, hearing Amelia's provocative words, she even smiled slightly. "This only means that I have found my fated one, unlike a certain someone." Amelia was once again silenced. Amelia's right eye was twitching in irritation. Meanwhile, Riya and Sasha looked at each other and then coldly snorted. Just like how mothers and Goddesses did not like each other, it seems the two Goddesses did not like each other either. They were never able to get along or at least that's what they thought. From the sidelines, Alicia, and Julia were enjoying themselves. They were getting to watch free entertainment. It was as if life had suddenly become much more exciting. Lilith lazily stretched her body before she looked at the bottle of sake that was away from her. "Riya, would you mind passing me the bottle of sake?" Her tone was soft and much more gentler. But when she is talking to Amelia, she is always rude and her actions are always provocative. "Of course...!!!" Even if Riya did not get along with Sasha that did not mean that did not get along with Lilith. In fact, Riya deeply respected Lilith and got along with her very well. Both of them often joined hands in teasing Sasha. Meanwhile, Amelia was sitting close to Sasha. Sasha has been silent since the beginning. She completely ignored the catfight going on between her mother and Aunt Amelia. Seeing Amelia and Sasha being completely quiet, Lilith smirked after taking a sip from the Sake bottle before saying. "Even my virgin daughter has kissed more men than you did in your entire life." "Hmph.....!!! Sasha isn't like you. You're nothing but a horny Rabbit who only thinks about mating all day long." 'Please stop dragging me into this...!!!' She did not understand why her mother had to embarrass her. Sasha ended up not saying this. She just silently moved towards Julia and Alicia. However, Lilith wasn't about to back down. "What if I am!!!"
"At least that's better than living a lonely life in the middle of the forest." "You...!!!" Lilith always has been this way. Regardless of how old they were, Amelia never was able to win against Lilith. She was shameless as ever. Her tongue was sharp and venomous as ever. "Aunty, please ignore my mother. Would you like to drink some Sake?" Sasha asked.
Hearing this Lilith wanted to cry. Her own daughter was betraying her and was taking the side of the enemy. Amelia smirked at Lilith before nodding to her. "Sure...!!!" Meanwhile, Lilith looked like she was about to cry. 'Now that the girls are back, life at the Dragon Palace is about to become a lot more fulfilling. There won't be any lack of entertainment.' Aria secretly grinned while observing Amelia and Lilith. Even though Amelia and Lilith had such high status and political as well as military powers in their hands, they did not have the Aura of arrogance around them. At the Dragon Palace, they acted just like normal girls. It wasn't just Lilith and Amelia, but all of Aditya's women were like this. This made it easier for Aria to fit in and live her life happily at the Dragon Palace. 'Only if Sylvie was here. It has been a while since I last saw her.' Aria thought in her mind. -

Lara was panting in Aditya's arms. Right now both of them were in his office. The office had become their little love nest. "I have a gift for you!!!" Aditya suddenly said. Hearing this Lara lifted her head and looked at her husband. "Gift?" "Yes.....!!!" "Within a few days, the Blood Moon Empire and its territories will fall. Without their Emperor Harrison, they don't stand a chance against the mighty Istarin Empire's army. I was planning on giving you control of the Blood Moon Empire."
"If you agree, then the Blood Moon Empire will be turned into a Vessel state of the Istarin Empire. You will become the Empress of the Empire." The reason Aditya was turning the Blood Moon Empire into the vessel state of the Istarin Empire was mainly so that his Empire could provide protection to the Blood Moon Empire. Vassal states often benefit from the military protection of their suzerain against external threats, which can lead to a stable and secure environment conducive to development.
Lara was surprised to hear Aditya's offer. But her mind was already made up. There was no need to think. "Lara does not wish to become an Empress." She lovingly wrapped her arms around his neck and continued. "Lara's only wish is to spend her life as her husband's wife. As long as Lara has her husband, she does not need anything else in life." Lara was content being a housewife. Hearing this, Aditya gently kissed her forehead and then kissed her cheeks a few times. "What am I going to do with you?" When Aditya first learned that Lara was going to become his wife, at that time, he felt conflicted about this whole matter. But now he had completely fallen for this girl. For her, he was even willing to fight an army of 300 million cultivators. Lara buried her head in her husband's chest and closed her head. From now on, life was only going to get better for her. -

Even though Lara rejected the chance to become the new ruler of the Blood Moon Empire, in the following days, Aditya still sent Spencer to negotiate a deal with the last Beast King. For some reason, Lady Eleanor very easily agreed to give Sun City to the Istarin Empire. She not only gave the Sun City but also gave the 50 km radius around the Sun City to the Istarin Empire. When Spencer asked what she wanted in exchange for this, she said that she was gifting this territory to the Istarin Empire. It seems she wanted to have good relationships with the Istarin Empire. However, Aditya did not want to take any free gifts. Taking free gifts from the current strongest Beast King would mean that in the future, he would owe her a favor. So in the end, Aditya once again sent Spencer to Lady Eleanor's territory. For the generous gift that Lady Eleanor gave to the Istarin Empire, the Empire gifted Lady Eleanor a hundred 3-star magic fruits. 3-star magic fruits were really rare and beneficial to cultivators. It would cost a small fortune if she wanted to buy one hundred high-quality 3-star magic fruits from the market or even more if she brought them from the auction. Under Aditya's orders, Spencer also officially invited Lady Eleanor to become one of the members of the Cosmic Tide Alliance. The Cosmic Tide Alliance was already one of the strongest Alliances in the whole world. Becoming a member of this alliance meant that Lady Eleanor's enemies would have to think twice before deciding to attack her territory. If anyone attacked her, then all the members of the alliance were going to send troops to protect their alliance members. Becoming a member of this alliance not only gave military protection but also had other very beneficial advantages. Meanwhile, in the following days, Sun City was given to Lara. While Lara is going to be the City Lord of the Sun City, her Maid Rose, along with someone that Lara hand-picked is going to be responsible for the administration work of the City. This is why Lara won't have to do any work. She can keep living at the Dragon Palace. And just this, days were quickly turning into weeks. And weeks were quickly turning into months. Everyone's lives at the Dragon Palace had once again become peaceful again. ----------------
