From amidst the swirling snowstorm, a woman garbed in white, reminiscent of a fairy, emerged from the grand hall.
The chilling air around her instantly enveloped the woman, even the cold air manipulated by Selma was swiftly drawn toward her.
“Greetings, Ms. Nieva...” Upon witnessing this scene, Yuliya was the first to fall to her knees. Soon after, every disciple from Lunarius Palace followed suit, all of them kneeling down in unison.
“Is this the head of Lunarius Palace? She’s really stunning!” “Today truly is an eye-opener. | actually got to meet the head of Lunarius Palace!” “What an intimidating aura! | bet the head of Lunarius Palace has already reached Ultimate Realm, hasn't she?” Numerous cultivators stared in astonishment at the woman who had suddenly appeared.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe head of Lunarius Palace casually waved her sleeve, and in an instant, the snowstorm reversed its course, roaring like a huge wave. The snowflakes that had been floating disappeared in the blink of an eye.
The head of Lunarius Palace looked toward Selma with an icy expression and asked, “Ms. Mueller, you acted as you pleased in Lunarius Palace. Are you aware that you've broken our rules? If word of this gets out, who will dare to visit Lunarius Palace?” Selma wore a look of displeasure on her face. She didn’t kneel before the head of Lunarius Palace, showing that she didn’t hold any particular reverence for Nieva.
“Ms. Nieva, this man killed my nephew right in front of me. How can | face my late nephew if | don’t take his life today?” Selma retorted with her teeth clenched.
Nieva said with an icy tone, “Ms. Mueller, if he did kill your nephew, it’s up to the Mueller family to seek justice.
Although you're part of the Mueller family, you're currently an elder of Lunarius Palace, so you must respect its rules.” Selma's eyes narrowed slightly. “What if I must kill him today?” Selma, a Top Level Tribulator, surprisingly challenged Nieva, who had reached Ultimate Realm, in public.
This situation instantly left many people utterly baffled.
An elder is having a confrontation with the head of the palace? Has she lost her mind? Jared was utterly taken aback, staring in shock at everything unfolding before his eyes.
“You cannot kill him witharound.” Nieva waved her hand gently, and in an instant, a transparent ice barrier appeared in front of Jared.
Upon seeing the situation, Selma gritted her teeth, making a grating noise as she exclaimed, “Ms. Nieva, are you seriously cutting ties with the Mueller family over an insignificant brat who has nothing to do with us?” “I am merely upholding the traditions of Lunarius Palace. Must you insist on bloodshed within these walls? Don’t forget, you hold the position of an elder in Lunarius Palace,” Nieva said coldly.
“All right, I'll wait until he leaves Lunarius Palace, then I'll tear him to pieces! I'll also notify the Mueller family and reveal everything that’s happened here. My nephew’s death won't be left unresolved.” After Selma finished speaking, she shot Jared a fierce glare, then stormed off with a dismissive flick of her sleeve.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmUnderstanding the current situation, Selma had yet to reveal Jared's true identity as she didn’t want others to beat her to it. She intended for the century-long offerings of the Demon Seal Alliance to fall entirely into the hands of the Mueller family.
Nieva told Yuliya, “Yuliya, could you arrange for someone to tidy up this place? Afterwards, tell all the cultivators that they can go get srest. Now, they are free to choose the female cultivators they fancy.” “Understood!” Yuliya gave a slight nod, then left with a multitude of cultivators trailing behind her.
Upon seeing the situation, Jared didn’t leave. Yuliya, however, slightly furrowed her brows and asked, “Why aren't you leaving? What are you staying for?” “I chere to see the head of the palace, not to seek a female cultivator. Naturally, | can’t leave,” Jared replied.
“Don’t push your luck. Ms. Nieva-" “Yuliya, let him stay and lead the others away,” Nieva cut her off.
Upon hearing this, Yuliya was taken aback. She knew Nieva had no fondness for men. Moreover, the rules within the palace strictly forbade any disciple from seeking a partner.
Nieva set the perfect example herself. She simply would not get close to any male cultivator.
This time, however, Nieva had unexpectedly invited Jared to stay, which greatly surprised Yuliya.
Even so, Yuliya didn’t dare to press further. She could only lead the numerous cultivators away.
