"I will give you a few minutes to explain before I ultimately just make you into an enemy." Rex said graciously.
The ruler smiled. A barrier between Rex, the ruler, Tiamat, and her guard came into place. What made this special was the way how people saw the interactions.
To cultivators and normal people, it seemed like this conversation was nothing more than just people talking and trying to get on each other's good side.
"I want your child to come with me. No matter the consequences, she will gain a much better view on people in general in my Realm." The ruler stated first.
"Why should she just up and go with you even with consequences?" Rex growled.
"Do not dare to intimate her Majesty." The guard angrily roared.
Rex went and slapped the guard so hard. That she ultimately felt her Soul shake with Death.
"Smacking my guard will do you," before she could finish, the feeling of death came from the guard.
"QUICKLY DO NOT ENTER THAT PLACE!" The ruler yelled.
That seemed to cause a slight confusion in the guard. Her ruler was telling her not to enter, yet voices kept telling her it is better on the other side.
A few minutes later, the guard finally snapped out of the confusion. She felt the tinge of Demonic Qi on her cheek.
"HOW DARE A DEMON LIKE YOU SLAP ME?!" The guard yelled.
"Me a demon," Rex laughed, "I am no demon. I am a Demon King." Rex unleased the aura.
This caused even the ruler to take a step back. What she felt was the embodiment of Pride. What made her question herself was the greedy nature that he wanted to be the Strongest.
"Too much information not currently known." The ruler thought.
"Shall I hold her while you two smack some sense into each other?" Tiamat asked.
Rex gently placed his daughter into the arms of Tiamat. With that passing, the ruler knew how much Rex either trusted or liked Tiamat.
"You two might just make a good couple. For now, this makes it easier to," before she could finish. Rex had unleased a punch powerful enough to break apart the lower Realms without dropping a sweat.
The moment the punch connected. The ruler felt her insides not only being pushed away but also thought they were exploding from the force.
The ruler had set her barrier to stop any distance further than six meters (almost twenty feet).
She got pushed slightly passed that before stopping. When she realized it, a nuclear punch landed on top of her head.
Rex had used Fire Qi to his maximum and his Strength Stat to the max, 100,000. When the punch finally connected. The ruler felt her head actually crack open.
She unleased a Holy Symbol three times stronger than she did against the Goddesses.
"Smite!" She roared.
Rex saw the Smite coming in. He focused his Yin-Yang Holy Qi on his left hand. He punched the Smite.
The Realms felt the Holy Qi surge and everyone could only think of death had arrived. To their astonishment, all injuries were healed. Old, new, scars or not all the injuries were recovered in the Holy Light.
"A Demon King also wielding Holy Qi. This is something never before seen." She smiled.
She tried to unlease another attack but found that Rex was actually staring deep into her Soul.
"Oh poor baby, you do not need to look too deep. Otherwise, something might attack." The ruler said playfully.
Her meaning was truth. What lied dormant deep within her Soul was chains that bound her to be equal. As long as she could bare the chains, she would not leave the people of her Realm.
This did not mean that the equal would be only for those people. It would take the strongest of each element in that Realm and make her a balancer of all of then. Here, it could really find Rex to be the powerful person.
Even the chains deep within her Soul found that strange. She slowly began to match Rex in all terms.
She felt the increase in strength was too much for the power being beside her. She wanted to talk a little more.
"A quick question before we continue. Why is the power you wield the strongest here?" The ruler asked seriously.
"My Strength Stat is at 100,000. The strongest point of a body cultivator at the Fourth Realm. As for the Qi, it must have to do with me having Fire, Water, Nature, Yin-Yang Holy and Dark, Animal Taming, and Soul Arts. Each path for me is something that is either special to me or something selfish of me."
Little did Rex know that because he had Animal Taming with Soul Arts in his Dantian. He was successfully making Tiamat love him more and more. As such she wanted to become a Wife, if at all possible a Soul Mate.
The routes that Rex was taking made sense why Tiamat was loving him so much to the ruler. She wondered how Rex was able to control so much and yet have a perfect balance of love.
"Remember these words Rex. No one is more powerful than their demons. Whatever evil lies inside of you, is powerful enough to destroy you. So remember, do your best not lose yourself. I will have to come vanquish you if you try to use it for your own goals." The ruler said.
She went over and grabbed the guard and Tiamat.
"This should be alright for just a couple of days. Tiamat will return with your child. We will not allow your child to wake and keep her asleep so that she does not know what will happen." The ruler spoke and the four disappeared instantly.
Rex roared evilly. The barrier shattered and the Realms felt the rage of Rex.
Meanwhile
"Come on Tiamat. Bring her this way. We can be done within the day." The ruler said.
Tiamat felt the child had already awakened and was preparing massive spells.
"Do not worry. You can unlease them when I say." Tiamat spoke telepathically to the baby.
