Chapter 1331 I will give you 10 years.
Lilith questioned with her usual seductive smile on her face.
"Lady Lili-"
"No, he is not."
Nux wanted to reply, however, before he could say anything, Vyriana stepped in front of him and spoke up, looking into Lilith\'s eyes with a defying look on her face.
Seeing her attitude, Lilith couldn\'t help but tilt her head in confusion.
"What do you mean?"
"For some reason, I and Nux have not been communicating enough, therefore, I wasn\'t informed about the bet the two of you had made until recently." Vyriana explained the situation. Her explanation, however, didn\'t lessen the Progenitor\'s frown, rather, her confusion only deepened even further.
"I fail to understand how that matters here," Lilith spoke.
Seeing her reaction, Vyriana frowned as well.
It was as if she was thinking, \'How come she doesn\'t understand something so simple?\'
Heck, the Dragon even looked at the Progenitor with a doubtful look on her face thinking that Lilith was trying to act ignorant. Of course, she wasn\'t planning on letting her continue her game, she clarified her words even further,
"As I said, I wasn\'t informed about the bet, so it cannot be considered anymore.
The bet is void."
Vyriana declared. Nux wanted to stop her, after all, too much was on the line in the situation, Vyriana however, simply glared at him, silencing him without even saying a simple word.
The meaning behind her actions was clear.
Let me deal with this and you stay out of this.
Now Nux wasn\'t the type to let things like these happen if he didn\'t want them to, this time, however, the one doing it was Vyriana. He had no choice but to agree.
He couldn\'t possibly offend his Dragon now, could he?
Yes, he was a Simp, kill him.
Lilith, of course, wasn\'t letting a mere Divine Stage Cultivator walk over her, she continued her questioning,
"I still do not understand where your presence is required here. The bet is not about you, it is about Nux, you have no right to decide things for him."
The Dragon, however, didn\'t back down,
"As a matter of fact, I do have the right to make decisions in his stead.
He is mine."
She declared confidently.
Lilith narrowed her eyes, and Vyriana, whose confident face flushed ever so slightly as she understood the meaning behind her words, was quick to reframe her sentence,
"He is my student. I was given the responsibility to guide his progress throughout his journey. Therefore, a bet that would have a significant effect on his mind, which would definitely affect his future journey, cannot be made without my presence.
Thus, the bet can only be voided."
Lilith however, shook her head once again,
"The bet is already made, it was settled the moment I gave Primordial Blood to that girl." The Progenitor then turned towards Nux and,
"You don\'t plan on going back on your words after your wife already got the Blood, correct? That would be seen as you fooling and taking advantage of me, which, I assure you, wouldn\'t be a good thing."
It was a direct threat and hearing those words, let alone Nux, even Vyriana had a solemn look on her face.
Progenitors were generally an easygoing bunch, however, that is because they were too lazy to care about most things. As beings who had been living for millions of years, things that could trigger a reaction out of them were far and few.
Of course, this didn\'t mean things like those didn\'t exist.
There were many things that could indeed get a reaction out of a progenitor and once it does…
Well…
Also, Lilith wasn\'t in the wrong here.
She had indeed given Primordial Blood to Allura, which was also the reason why the woman had changed so much, becoming even more seductive than she already was.
It shouldn\'t be forgotten that these are the same beings who could smash someone like Aeliana, the strongest being in the Ancestral Order into oblivion without even putting any real effort. A mere Divine Stage Cultivator like Vyriana, no matter how strong for her stage she was, in front of a Progenitor, she was nothing.
Taking advantage of a being was impossible.
Also, Lilith wasn\'t in the wrong here.
She had indeed given Primordial Blood to Allura, which was also the reason why the woman had changed so much, becoming even more seductive than she already was.
He was indebted to Lilith and he couldn\'t possibly go back on his words.
Honestly, he didn\'t even want to go back on his words here, he still couldn\'t care less about the 10,000 years he would be spending in the Illusion because if he could be sure about one thing, it was that his love for his wives would never change, neither would his possessiveness ever die out.
He was a crazy bastard who loved his wives to a fault, let alone ten, even a hundred thousand or million years won\'t change that.
The bet was nothing more than free rewards in his eyes. Not just from Lilith, but also from his mother. However, as he glanced at Vyriana\'s expression, he could tell that the Dragon was scheming something.
It was true that Vyriana learned about the bet only recently, however, when he told her about it, she just shrugged, not reacting like she currently was.
Nux couldn\'t tell what the Dragon was thinking, however, he had decided to trust her and let her do whatever it was she was trying to do.
And even in front of the angered Progenitor, the Dragon didn\'t back down. Rather, she took out a red-colored Scale from her Storage Ring. Sensing the energy coming out of the scale and recognizing what it was, Lilith narrowed her eyes and the Dragon continued,
"Primordial Blood is nothing for you Progenitors, you are not fooling anyone here. No one is taking your advantage here."
Vyriana wasn\'t a child who was born yesterday.
Sure, for people of Yrniel and even the members of the Ancestral Order, the Primordial Blood was a big deal. It was supposedly the highest level of Bloodline one could through the Trial Towers. Bloodline that was supposed to turn one into a legend who could topple empires alone. n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om
This, however, was far from the truth.
Yes, Primordial Blood was strong.
Since it allows the Cultivator to cultivate on his own, it was a great asset for many cultivators, this, however, was only true till the Divine Stage.
After that level, once the power of Laws came into play, the Yrniel Bloodlines didn\'t offer much help.
The Level Beyond Divine required endless efforts and a thorough understanding of Laws to proceed further.
Also, as someone who had grown under the guidance of a Progenitor herself, she knew just what a Primordial Blood meant to these beings.
The Progenitors treated Primordial Level Bloodline as if it was nothing.
In their eyes, it was no different than a mere coin. If these beings wanted, they could grand Primordial Level Bloodline to more than a hundred thousand people, and it still wouldn\'t bother them in the slightest.
The only reason they weren\'t doing this and raising a strong army was because…
They were lazy.
These beings just couldn\'t be bothered because, in the end, they knew the truth, in front of the real enemies, the otherworlders, the beings who simply relied on their Bloodline to get stronger would be crushed in an instant. So they only award the exceptional ones with the Blood, hoping they can put it to good use.
Anyway, with all said and done, giving out Primordial Blood was not a big deal for the Progenitors, and Vyriana knew it.
"If you are still dissatisfied, then I can call my Master, we can continue our discussion in front of her."
Vyriana spoke, showing the Saphira\'s Scale to Lilith, ready to summon her. Lilith narrowed her eyes. Of course, she wasn\'t scared of Saphira, however, things would definitely get much more troublesome if that woman was involved.
Faustina already knew about the bet, if more Progenitors were involved, then sensing her interest in Nux, those bastards would definitely try to make a mess out of the situation just so they could annoy her.
Lilith also knew that she wasn\'t the only Progenitor who was after Nux, the boy had managed to attract the attention of most female Progenitors, so although they weren\'t actively trying to do anything right now, knowing that she was making her moves, they would definitely create more and more problems.
The Succubus Progenitor wanted to end this as silently as possible so that she could take the most out of it.
Therefore,
"What do you want?"
She questioned as she looked into the Dragon\'s eyes.
Of course, this didn\'t mean Vyriana had won.
"And don\'t even think about calling off the bet, that will not happen. Call your Master if you\'re dissatisfied."
"There is no need to call off the bet. I just ask for time."
"Time for what."
"I want him to form his Law before entering the Illusion, that way, his defenses would be much stronger, lessening the chances of his being permanently affected by the illusion."
Vyriana spoke and Lilith just shrugged.
In her eyes, forming Law or not didn\'t matter. Nux\'s strength didn\'t matter in this situation, in Lilith\'s eyes, he was still a boy who was extremely weak.
A small addition to an already small number wouldn\'t change anything.
"How much time do you need?"
Lilith questioned.
"100 years."
Vyriana suggested, ready to grab Nux and start another training montage. Lilith however, poured cold water on her dreams.
"Don\'t push it, Dragon.
I will give you 10 years.
Do the best you can."
Saying those words, Lilith disappeared and this time, the bet was fixed. Nothing Vyriana or anyone else says would change anything now.
