"Was killing them the right decision?" Amelia had been observing everything. As soon as Aditya stepped inside the Dragon Palace, she appeared in front of him and asked him this question.
Aditya stared at Amelia for a second before he replied in a deep tone. "I certainly think so....!" Aditya chose to do this knowing the consequences of his actions. He did not have any regrets.
"Given how things were going, violence was inevitable." Even if Aditya hadn't attacked, Mia and other disciplines of the sect would have attacked Aditya if he had refused to give the Dragon Grass or if he had refused to follow their words.
Hearing this Amelia fell into silence. After thinking for a while, she nodded her head in understanding. "But now that you have let that woman leave, she is going to tell her Elder about this whole matter. In the worst-case scenario, we could see a full-scale invasion from their side."
As soon as Amelia said these words, she suddenly realized, given how sharp Aditya was, he must have already thought about this possibility.
"So what? Let them come. The Istarin Empire is the Yraveyards of Empires and Kingdoms. After their invasion, the Istarin Empire will be known as the Graveyard of Sects from Main Continents as well."
"If they came, then I will bury them in this Empire. Not a single of one them will ever return back to the Main Continent." Aditya said in a cold tone. His voice was filled with killing intent.
Under his reign, the Empire already has been through so many wars. Fighting another war wouldn't be much of a problem.
"But don't you realize that in this war, your normal soldiers will be ineffective. Even cannon folders will be more useful than your troops. In front of the Peak 5th-order cultivators from the Main Continents, they don't stand a chance. They are nothing but ants in front of Peak 5th-order cultivators. You cannot win this war.....!!!" Amelia looked a little bit frustrated. Now that peace had returned, why this man was being so reckless? Doesn't he care about others?
"Aunty, did you forget who I am?" Aditya asked with a smile.
Hearing Amelia stop talking.
The next second, a relieved smile appeared on her face. Since this was Aditya, anything was possible. He is a man who cannot be measured by normal means.
"Besides, I doubt that the Sect from the Main Continent will come here anytime soon. Unless the elders and the Sect Leader are completely stupid and arrogant and think that they could destroy this Empire." Aditya made sure to display his powers to Mia so that she would very well remember what he was capable of.
Since the Higher-Order cultivator's cultivation gets lowered to Peak 5th-order when they come out of the Main Continent, regardless of their number, Aditya and the Istarin Empire can deal with all of them.
"I see.....!!!" Amelia nodded her head.
"By the way, when the Tournament is going to begin?" Amelia asked.
Because of the increasing rivalries among the seven divisions, Aditya has decided on a tournament between the Imperial soldiers of the seven Divisions. The motive of this tournament was to motivate the Imperial Soldiers to train even harder. Also, this tournament would be a nice source of entertainment for everyone in the Capital.
"Tomorrow afternoon...!!"
Scene change_______
As soon as the bright light from the teleportation dimmed down, Sylvie stepped forward and greeted Aditya with a happy smile. Her face was beaming with happiness now that she had finally returned back to live in the Dragon Palace.
"Hello, Aditya!!! Did you miss me?" It had been more than two and a half months since Aditya last saw Sylvie. It wasn't that the relationship between them had become awkward due to past events, it was just that both of them had become incredibly busy with their lives. Sylvie had to stay at the Ethereal Empire for over two and a half months.
Because of being busy with her work, she missed the chance to go to the Beast Continent with everyone. Sylvie really wanted to go along with them but because of her work, she couldn't accompany them.
"Actually, without you, the Dragon Palace has been really peaceful lately." Aditya did indeed miss her a little bit. But he wasn't going to admit that to her face. Without Sylvie, Lilith had become much more tamed recently and had stopped causing mischief. But now that Sylvie is back, things are going to become very chaotic at the Dragon Palace.
"How cruel!!!!" Sylvie dramatically pretended to wipe the nonexistent tears from her right eye.
"I see that you haven't changed a bit," Aditya commented with a smile. s
"And you have changed a lot. You have become a lot stronger."
"By the way, I have watched your fight with that guy. What was his name again.....? Let's see....!!"
"Harrison....!!!" Aditya replied.
"Yeah, Harrison!!! To be honest, I did not expect you to be this strong." Sylvie looked genuinely impressed.
"When do you even train? How did you even become this strong?" Because Sylvie has never seen Aditya train while staying at the Dragon Palace.
"That's a secret!!" Aditya chose not to comment. Having to answer such questions, he would need to make more lies to make his one lie sound more convincing. Instead of going through all of this, it would be better if he just kept it a secret.
"Booo....!!!" Sylvie pouted.
The next second, the teleportation array behind her once again lit up. Once the bright light dimmed down, it was Alicia followed by her entire family member. This was their first time coming to the Dragon Palace.
Originally, they were supposed to come around a month ago when they had just returned from the Beast Continent. But Ronnie unexpectedly had some emergency work to do so their arrival was postponed. Without Ronnie, other family members also did not come.
After all, Ronnie was the head of the family. This was going to be their first formal visit to the Dragon Palace. It would look disrespectful if the other family members came without Alicia's father, who was the head of the Family. As strange as it sounded, this was just how their culture worked. Elders are given the uttermost respect.
They were also here to watch the tournament that was going to take place.
Right after the tournament was announced, unexpectedly it had gained a lot of attention. Now everyone in the Capital was hyped about this tournament.
"You're here...!!!" Alicia nodded her head with a smile.
"Welcome to the Istarin Empire!!" Aditya politely greeted everyone. While greeting them, he did not have the air of a ruler or an Emperor.
Scene change________
On top of a snowy hill, all the elders of the Night Riders Sect had gathered for an emergency meeting. It was all because of the death of the four of their outer disciplines. Normally such matters would have been ignored by the sect.
An outer Elder would be in charge of dealing with such matters. After all, the outer disciplines of the sect are of the least importance to the sect. Even if 10 of the outer disciplines died, the sect would ignore this matter entirely. This matter would be left up to an Outer Elder.
However, the one who was leading this mission was a very important person to the sect. Mia Hunter was not just an ordinary inner-discipline of the Sect.She was the direct student of one of the oldest and most powerful elders in the Night Riders Sect.
The sole purpose of this mission was for Mia to earn enough merit points to become a core discipline of the Sect. Once her student became a core discipline of the Sect, then her student would be able to get access to more cultivation resources. At that time, nothing could stop Mia from becoming one of the top cultivators of the Sect.
However, who would have thought that something like this would happen? This was supposed to be a very simple mission for Mia and her team. But never did anyone think that this Mission would end in failure. To think there was actually someone outside of the Main Continent, who had the power to kill 4 outer disciplines of their sect within a second. If it was anyone else other than Mia reporting this to the sect, then no one would have believed in such nonsense.
Right now, Mia's teacher has a very ugly look on her face. Never did she think that her student would go out of the Main Continent and bring her shame and humiliation.
"What should we do about this?" Asked one of the Elders. All the elders looked at each other and said nothing. Everyone was waiting for Mia's teacher to speak first. After all, this matter involved her student.
Almost all of the elders of the sect had been summoned to discuss this matter. After all, this was not a small matter that could be dropped and just be forgotten. This incident has brought shame and humiliation to the Night Riders Sect.
Really Thank you very much to all those who send support with valuable golden tickets. I hope we can keep it up!!!
