Title: What an Irony
....
Zimo's words caused Yuxin's expression to turn exceptionally ugly, it was like she just got slapped hard.
This young master of the Ye Clan was on the Devil Rankings. His words naturally had weight to them. As a descendant of an major clan, he must have met many like her before. Most probably in his Ye Clan, there were many women who married in, acting like her.
Despicable and lowly, yet acting lofty and arrogant.
This was like mocking her in the place where it hurts the most.
Her beautiful face contorted. After Zimo spoke, he no longer bothered about her and followed after Shun, walking past her. Her husband Aden obediently stood to the side.
Right now when he looked back, everything was just ironic.
"So, this is the pride of you and brother-in-law. How truly ridiculous indeed." Yuruo stood by the side as she mocked.
Before this, their group has been layering insults upon insults on Shun, wanting to show her how unworthy he was. However, what she saw was only a bunch of ignorant fellows mutually boasting to each other.
Now, when they stood before Zimo, they didn't even have the courage to speak.
"He's merely lucky and got acquainted with a descendant of the Ye Clan. After all, he is only a general under father, so you should stop overthinking things. I really want to see how high can he climb." Yuxin's face was still contorted as she replied in an ice-like tone.
"Foolish." Zimo didn't turn back, he just sarcastically commented a sentence. As for Shun, he couldn't be bothered with Yuxin from the start until now.
Just like what Zimo has said, the dragon soaring through the skies couldn't be bothered to lower itself to the same level as the ants crawling on the ground.
So what if Shun really was a general under her father? She will soon understand how great the disparity between her and Shun was.
"I will watch him together with you." Yuruo, the third princess, watched Shun's back with a smile. She believed that Shun would definitely be able to climb higher than Aden.
"I will go over first." Aden had a dark look as he proceeded on. He obtained a golden token and his seating arrangement wasn't too bad.
Yuxin and Yuruo quietly stood there, watching the geniuses proceeding forward. Shun, Da, Zimo and Aden were all walking forth.
Finally, Aden halted, he was blocked by the guards and could only stay where he was. He glanced at those figure who were still heading forward as his countenance changed, alternating between shades of green and white.
Clearly, regardless of Zimo or Shun, both of them were stronger than him. When he thought of his earlier words which insulted Shun, what would his wife and his sister-in-law watching from behind him think? He only felt burning shame on his face, as though someone just slapped him.
Aden had a grim expression on his face. He wanted to see which sector Shun would arrive at exactly.
Shun naturally wouldn't care about what those people behind him thought.
He continued walking on, the flash of light from the center of his brows made it so that no guards obstructed him. He could now already see the sector where the Blackstone Devil King was seated at.
"He crossed another sector. Sister, didn't you once say that as long as someone could exceed Aden, that person would be unrivalled? Right now, Shun not only did so, he is still showing no signs of stopping, he is now even at the sector our father is in. What else do you have to say now?" The third princess remarked.
Yuxin was speechless. Even Zimo and Da found their seats and sat down. The two of them were in the same sector as the devil kings. These devil kings were all lords of their own island and the elders of the Azureflame Clan were seated there as well.
"So what even if it's true?" Yuxin still refused to admit that she was wrong.
"So what? Didn't you see that even when Zimo stopped, he is still advancing?" Yuruo's eyes gleamed with a brilliant light, staring at the man who came here with her. He was advancing step by step to a path of glory which belonged only to him.
"That time back then, didn't you point at that location and tell me that for those who could walk until that sector, as long as that person are willing, they could join any of the supreme major powers on the Fallen God Island effortlessly and become the most important core member? You said that I would understand how outstanding those people were? But could it be that you are still blind now? Can't you see that the man I fell in love with, is currently walking towards the legendary sector you spoke of?"
Yuruo pointed to the legendary sector closest to the devil emperor, causing Yuxin's heart to shudder intensely. At this moment, she also realized that Zimo, Da and the others have halted. But Shun was still continuing on.
He was still advancing forward, walking to the seats in the sector that was closest to the devil emperor.
"Shun." The Blackstone Devil King stood up, staring at Shun with shock.
"Devil king." Shun nodded as he smiled at the Blackstone Devil King.
"Good, well done." The Blackstone Devil King grinned, "As expected of the first-ranked general under my command."
In the surroundings, many devil kings nodded to Shun, asking if he was keen to join them. The Blackstone Devil King naturally felt extremely proud when he heard that. After all, Shun was a devil general under him.
Not only the devil kings, countless gazes over here all stared in the direction of Shun, watching with shock as this young man proceeding towards the legendary sector. There was actually someone who was qualified to go there.
At this moment, the attention of the multitude of people here, were all focused on him.
Upon seeing this, Yuruo had a radiant smile on her face. It was as though it was she herself who was enjoying the glory. This young man who always called her the third princess and who was always mercilessly teased by her, the halo of glory radiating from him now has even exceeded that of her father. His accomplishments would surpass her father's sooner or later.
But at this moment although Yuruo was happy, she actually also felt a trace of disappointment. She suddenly understood that how could the small island of her father, ever retain this dragon?
She, who was the third princess of the Blackstone Island, Yuruo, might be able to summon wind and rain on that island. But on this Fallen God Island, what could she do? Can she even bind him to her?
Maybe the man whom she fell in love with, was destined never to belong to her.
Shun finally sat down under the gazes of millions. Aden's expression became pale as he mocked himself silently.
On the other side, Yuruo spoke again, "Elder sister, I can't be bothered to rebut the words you said to me so many times earlier. However, I just want to know what you are feeling now when you thought back to those humiliating insults you threw at him back then."
"Enough!" Yuxin coldly snorted.
"Refusing to admit your own mistakes and turning shame into anger? When you humiliated him in front of me, how brazen were you then? But reality has proven that your husband Aden isn't even worthy enough to hold his shoes for him. As for you, you are also not worthy enough to be my elder sister." After speaking, Yuruo turned and left, walking towards her own seat. She couldn't be bothered to walk together with her sister Yuxin.
Yuxin stood there dumbly, staring at the silhouette of Shun who was seated before the devil kings. She had an indescribable feeling in her heart.
Who was it exactly that was the frog in the well?
At the celebration, geniuses were amassing like clouds. Even Shun's subordinate was more outstanding compared to her brother-in-law.
This devil emperor's birthday celebration… Was it Yuruo who needs to wake up her idea, or was it Yuxin?
Shun didn't care about this. He sat there and around him were all supreme experts at the devil-king realm. Some auras of these devil kings were extremely frightening and at the same time, a pair of cold eyes landed on him. The owner of these eyes was none other than the Black dragon Devil King.
"Black dragon, what's wrong?" Not far away from the Black dragon Devil King, a supremely strong devil king asked.
"He is the person I spoke of before." The Black dragon Devil King transmitted his voice, causing that supreme devil expert's eyes to flash as he stared at Shun. So it was this man who narrowly killed his god-son?
"Black dragon don't mention this matter for now, we will see how the situation is at the end of the celebration. If he gains the attention of the devil emperor, you should just forget about this matter." That person replied back. The Black dragon Devil King reluctantly nodded. Right now, he could only watch and hope that this Shun wouldn't be recruited by some supreme major powers.
-------
"Ban and the others of the Royal Devil Clan have arrived." At this moment, somebody laughed as he stared at the supreme geniuses of the Royal Devil clan walking over. Ban who was not far away, began to walk over step by step. When he saw Shun sitting in the core seats, an extremely cold light flashed in his eyes. Even if it was him, he had no way to sit at that most elite sector.
"Seems like it isn't easy to be able to sit in those seats. Ban is a peak character near the top of the Devil Rankings yet even he, isn't able to seat there." Someone commented in a low voice.
"Only those who gain four token of darkness from the four nests would be able to. Such supreme characters, there would only be a few every hundred years."
"Mhm, I wonder which power nurtured this seedling."
"There's someone like him in my island as well." At this moment, one of them spoke. Everyone turned over and all of them bowed when they saw the one who spoke. When he walked over, the nearby crowd actually opened up a path for him, it was evident that this man had an extremely high status.
This man was a fearsome devil king on the Fallen God Island, his chakra level was at the peak of the devil-king realm, slightly short of entering the emperor realm and he had immense authority.
What was more fearful is that he can gain access into the emperor palace at anytime to meet with the devil emperor. It was rumored that when this man was young, he used to roam the Myriad Islands with the Fallen God Emperor.
"Mr Kan, are you referring to Knal of the Devil Rankings?" This Knal was a supremely terrifying ranker on the Devil Rankings.
"Not him." That devil king walked to the side of the devil emperor's seat and sat down. "Knal is inferior to him. You all will know who I'm talking about soon!"
