Chapter 1329 That woman broke through
1329 That woman broke through
It was another calm day for all of Nux's wives, most of them had their 'turns' with their beloved, so all of them had a satisfied grin on their faces while they were working on the new knowledge they were offered and were trying to form their Law in peace.
'GIRLS!!!'
This peace, however, was ruined by a loud scream.
It wasn't a normal shout either, they all heard it through the Harem Seal's connection. Meaning that only one of their sisters or Nux could be the one who was shouting in such a manner and considering the panic, fear, shock, anger, and countless other negative emotions all the women could feel in the voice, all the women were quick to come out of their reverie and prepared themselves to make a move.
'What is it?'
The first one to react was Amaya as she questioned in a low voice, trying to calm Felberta, the woman who had screamed.
'Come here! Come to Lane's room!'
Felberta shouted again, not explaining anything.
Amaya wanted more answers and frowned when she didn't get them. Skyla, on the other hand, was much faster.
The woman had already opened the portal and was inside Lane's room. However, the moment she exited the portal, her eyes widened in absolute shock, "SISTER LANEEE!!"
She shouted.
By now, most of the women had also entered the room and had similar reactions. All of them surrounding Lane's dead body in an instant.
"What happened?"
Even Ember, who was the most tired out of all her sisters completely forgot about her tired body and questioned as she narrowed her eyes in anger and hatred.
"I don't know!!"
Felberta answered, her heart beating quickly as she felt like she would throw up any moment now.
Lane was one of the people she was closest to, to find her dead body out of random... her hands that were holding her were trembling nonstop.
"..."
Skyla had it even worse.
The short woman was frozen stiff, her eyes widened, and... she wasn't breathing... For her, Lane was the woman who, after Nux, was her everything, as someone who had spent her entire childhood with her elder sister, she couldn't even show a reaction when she saw her elder sister's dead body.
Thyra, on the other hand, had a much more stable reaction.
As an assassin who had seen the deaths of countless people, even the people she regarded as her own, her first reaction was to find the cause.
How did it happen? Who killed her sister? How did he do it? How was Lane unable to resist at all? How come she didn't call them?
All these questions ate her away as she crouched near the body, soon however, she froze.
"What happened?" Amaya questioned, unable to hold herself back.
It wasn't just her,
"Thyra, why are you silent?"
"Speak up! Will you!?"
Others spoke as well and most were losing control over themselves.
"She... killed herself..."
Thyra replied with a shocked look on her face, unable to believe what she was saying herself. However, no matter how she looked at it, no matter how many times she rechecked just in case she was wrong, all the time, she came up with a single conclusion.
The woman had killed herself.
"What the hell are you talking about?"
Felberta questioned, looking at Thyra with an annoyed look on her face.
"Look at the knife she used and how she is holding i-"
Thyra tried to explain herself, but suddenly,
Felberta's expression changed as she sensed something in her arms. She looked down in a hurry only to see Lane's body turning into black material, it was as if it was blending into its shadow.
"W-What is happening?"
She questioned out loud.
The women, however, were all silent, having no answer to her questions.
However, Amaya was different.
"She is not dead."
The woman commented as she narrowed her eyes and her mouth started twitching in annoyance.
The rest of the women glanced at her and she continued,
"Rather than dead, that bitch is actually doing quite well." Amaya cursed as she pointed at the dead body that was turning into a shadow.
"Look at her cultivation."
The moment she spoke, Melia noticed...
"A Saint..."
"That woman broke through," Amaya spoke.
Then,
"Not only that, that bitch formed a Law of her own. Whatever is happening right now, it must be because of her Law."
"She... formed a Law...?"
Felberta questioned, still unable to believe what she heard.
"Fuck, I cannot believe I was bested by her! It is the third one already!"
Amaya cursed and without saying anything, she opened a portal and walked away.
This time, however, her portal didn't take her back to her room, her destination was a Demon Stage. The Devouring Mist Demon State.
With a determined look on her face, she entered the State Mansion, ready to meet the Demon Lord.
She had enough.
She wouldn't be bested by her Sisters anymore.
It was time she made a breakthrough as well.
...
On the other side, after Amaya left as she sensed the urgency, the rest of the women frowned.
"She formed a Law as well..."
"Well, Lady Vyriana did say she was the closest to it," Allura commented.
Unlike Amaya, she wasn't in a hurry, she didn't feel any sort of urgency to form a Law. She was more glad that her Sister was fine.
Even if she wasn't very close to Lane, she still liked the woman, not to mention she couldn't possibly imagine what face would Nux make if something actually happened to one of them.
So just for the sanity of the man she loved, she was glad that everything was alright.
Others, however, weren't the same as Allura.
"I will be taking my leave as well."
Ember spoke up.
She had just returned as a Dragon and had gotten stronger, she could not let her sisters surpass her again. Vyriana had already guided her before she entered the Tower, so she knew which direction to move in, No more rest was needed.
She needed to get back to the grind.
"Me too."
And she wasn't alone, Thyra, then Riona, Melia, and one by one, all others started leaving as well, leaving only Felberta, Skyla, Allura, Aisha, and Edda in the room.
