Currently, since Dyon had appointed Alidor as the head of the Shadows Faction, he was away preparing himself to be useful in the near future. This left the Demon Generals he sent here without a leader. So, though Dyon noticed that they were missing, he didn't think much of it until he heard Thatch's response.
"We actually got a signal to group up from them. But, before we could make our way there, we got word that you were here. Since our city is in ruins, it takes too long for us to go from place to place without teleportation formations, so we though it would be better if we came here first." Thatch explained.
There really was no more handholding on the celestial floors. Even the travel that was so incredibly easy on the saint floors due to the copious number of teleportation formations were nowhere to be found here. Without them, it really was too difficult to get around.
Luckily, Dyon gave his Demon Generals the advantage of communication. With his improvement in array alchemy, even communicating across several million miles was no real problem, especially if he used the Sapientia Network as a proxy.
"What happened?" Dyon's frown deepened.
"Some bastard of the Enigmatic Sect has been harassing Ava. When her heaven grade constitution became public knowledge, there was no shortage of individuals trying to take advantage."
A baleful aura leaked from Dyon's body. He had spent the last two years in too much calm, so many repressed emotions seemed to want to bubble upward.
Ava might not be one of his wives, but she was most definitely one of his reverse scales in the same way Delia was.
Dyon knew how valuable a heaven grade constitution was. With god constitutions being so incredibly rare, even among True Gods, the heaven grade was the peak-most of what a genius could be. There was a reason why Madeleine and Ri's constitution reveals were such shockers.
One could imagine how valuable the primordial yin of a heaven grade constitution was. They had a lot of nerve trying to take advantage of one of his own in this way.
"Give me your communication device." Dyon reached out his hand and took an array plate from Thatch.
'The Enigmatic Sect, huh?' Dyon sneered. He knew very well that the Enigmatic Sect was the 7th ranked quadrant. Their power lost out in no way to the Golden Crow Sect. In fact, they were even a step above due to the fact they were without opponent in their home quadrant. However, would Dyon care about such a thing?
Dyon closed his eyes. He immediately sensed that Ava was more than two million miles to his east. The main issue was that much of the land between here and there were filled with beasts and various environmental dangers. That said, Dyon had no need to go through such a hassle. A single comet grade teleportation array was enough.
"You all stay here. It would take me too long to draw an array capable of taking you all."
Dyon knew that he and his Demon Generals received rewards for passing through the celestial doors, but he could only push his accepting of them back.

A fair distance away, Ava's delicate features were brimming with anger. She had six others with her, including Caedlum, Thor, River, Ronica, and her elder brother, Arios. However, they were currently in quite sorry states.
In truth, Caedlum, Ava and Thor were all worthy of being Vice Commanders with River, Ronica and Arios just being a single notch below. The only reason Dyon hadn't promoted them just yet was because they had yet to accumulate enough merits within the Demon Generals.
One might wonder why Giralda had, but they hadn't, and the answer to that was simple. Dyon had exchanged the star grade Divine Pulse pill in exchange for the right to enter the Agios Clan's calming lake. Considering the level of natural treasure the calming lake was, it was most definitely worth countless merits.
This aside, the very quiet 6th person that had yet to be mentioned was none other than Ava's former best friend, Tammy…
Ava's figure was just as fiery as ever. It definitely didn't help that she was wearing her usual skin-tight leather at all. However, this only made their opponents stare at her with even more desire.
Currently, the group stood before large city gates. Without a central hub like Central City, those on the celestial floors usually relied on nearby powers to rest and restock. This was exactly what Ava and the rest had come here to do.
In the beginning, everything had been going smoothly. They stayed here for a few days then planned to go to the nearby danger zone to train like they always did.
However, who would have known that before they could attempt to leave the city, they would be stopped a gang of hooligans led by God Malthor, the key wielder of the Enigmatic Sect.
Malthor was too disgusting of an individual. Even though he kept a dignified expression, the depraved light within his eyes was impossible to hide.
Even now, he pretended to be in the right. Since this city was controlled by the Enigmatic Sect, who would dare to defy him?
"Return what you've stolen!" He roared.
"Malthor! If you don't get out of my way right now, I'll start slaughtering Enigmatic Sect disciples one by one!" Ava's fair skin reddened with anger, her ample chest heaving.
Each one of her comrades had stepped out to protect her, but how could they be a match? Although this was the lowest tier, free travel was allowed between the celestial floors. Malthor was already a Higher Celestial, and his personal army were made of individuals who had already passed the middle and higher tier trials, some of them had even already passed the peak tier trial. How could they be a match for more than a thousand warriors with just 7 of them?
