Lan Jue cleared her throat. "Your subordinates found me. They told me you'd been taken by the Pontiff's Citadel. Qian Lin and I went to the Pontiff's Citadel to rescue you.
We're not completely safe yet. We're still on Europa.
Can you use your ability to heal yourself now?
You're hurt pretty bad. "
The Moonfiend Empress had regained her composure. She glanced at Zhou Qianlin, then back at Lan Jue. Her eyes were calm.
But there was a flicker of pain in the depths of her eyes.
Lan Jue handed her the crystal she'd received when she rescued her. "There's no need to say anything else. Focus on healing your wounds. When you're better, we'll leave.
We'll talk about the future later. "
"Alright."
The Moonfiend Empress accepted the crystal from Lan Jue's hand. She didn't say a word of thanks. With Zhou Qianlin's help, she sat cross-legged, holding the crystal in her hand. She began to work on the remnants of her Discipline.
"Let's cultivate." Lan Jue and Zhou Qianlin spoke up.
"Alright." Zhou Qianlin nodded her head in agreement.
The Moonfiend Empress' wounds were not light, but her Discipline of Light had a strong healing effect. Add to that the fact that she was a Ninth Level Sixth Rank Warrior, and the wounds on her body healed in a day's time. Still, it would take time for her Discipline to fully recover.
Lan Jue and Zhou Qianlin continued to cultivate in the same way. It was just as Bize had said.
Their cultivation speed was much faster than that of ordinary cultivators.
Every time they finished cultivating.
Their bodies separated.
All of them could feel that their abilities had improved.
Of course, Lan Jue's progress had started from ninth level first rank.
When they cultivated while fusing, they could comprehend the power of laws more, but after their own Arcana grew, it would not strengthen their fusion Arcana. After all, the peak of Level 9 was the limit of ordinary humans.
If they wanted to take the next step, they'd have to become Paragons. But that wasn't possible until they were at the peak of ninth level.
Even so, they could feel the changes in the Law Realm every time they cultivated. In fact, it was equivalent to them cultivating at the pinnacle of Level Nine, and it would naturally be greatly beneficial for them to break through Law bottlenecks in the future.
As expected of the capital, Europa City was not harassed at all.
Lan Jue also watched the news of the Western League through the holographic television. There was no report on what happened in the Holy City.
Another day passed.
The Moonfiend Empress' cultivation had finally recovered to above Level Nine, but it would take time for her to return to her original peak condition.
"When do we leave?" The Moonfiend Queen asked Lan Jue.
Lan Jue: "Where are you going?
Back to the Three Stars of Disintegration?
I'm afraid you'll have to come to my place first, then I'll send you on Zeus -1.
But I have some business to attend to. Why don't you wait for me on Skyfire Avenue? "
The Moonfiend Empress shook her head. "No, I'm not going.
The Moonfiend Pirates are completely under the Pontiff's control. Even if some of them join me, I won't be able to control them. You can't always be by my side, and I can't bring you any more trouble.
From now on, I'm no longer the Moonfiend Empress. I want the title of Angel of the Dawn. Not Angel of the Pontiff's Citadel, but Angel of the Dawn of Zeus. "
Lan Jue could feel the change in Qianlin's aura. "Little Yue, you're …" he said hurriedly.
The Moonfiend Empress smiled sweetly, glancing at Zhou Qianlin. "Zeus already has Zeus' Four Amazons. What's one more?
My name is Su Xiaosu, Angel of the Dawn. From now on, I am Zeus' Fifth Amazon. "She rose to her feet and bowed to Lan Jue.
Lan Jue ducked out of the way. She smiled wryly. "Little Yue, don't make a fuss. How can you force someone to accept you?"
Su Xiaosu smiled. "Boss, I'm not forcing you.
If you don't accept me, it's fine.
Then I'll go back to the Pontiff's Citadel.
When you rescued me from that place, I was no longer who I was. I've been reborn.
I don't have anywhere to go. If you don't want me to be taken back, then let me stay.
I'll do anything you want.
You already have Zeus' Four Amazons. That's a lot of trouble.
You've already taken Satan's daughter, the Infernal Enchantress. Another Angel of the Dawn won't make a difference. "
Lan Jue calmed down when she saw the warm smile on Su Xiaosu's face. Although she was smiling, Lan Jue could see the sadness and determination in the depths of her eyes.
Yes!
She was alone, helpless, all by herself.
She couldn't go back to the pirates. Where else could she go?
The Pontiff's Citadel had tortured her, and that was a huge blow. She needed a place to heal.
Lan Jue sighed. "How about this. You come with me to Skyfire Avenue. Stay with me for a while, and don't bring up Zeus' Five Amazons. We're friends.
I'll give you a place to stay for now.
Once you've thought things through, you can leave whenever you want. "
"Alright." Su Xiaosu didn't force the issue.
The Soulcaller gem:
Zhou Qianlin: Now I know where the girls come from.
"But I can't just stand by and watch her be alone and helpless!
She's been through a lot, and it's been hard.
Don't worry, there's nothing going on between us.
Zhou Qianlin: Why should I worry?
There's nothing going on between us!
Lan Jue: … …
After some thought, Lan Jue decided to keep Su Xiaosu by her side for now.
Although the Pontiff's Citadel might find her in the Major League, it wasn't their turf.
Most importantly, the security at Europa's civilian airship hangars was very strict. If she left on her own, she'd be discovered.
Especially the ones heading to Skyfire. The security would be the strictest.
It was about time. Lan Jue bought two first-class tickets to Planet Luo.
Then she had the Accountant use a hacker to buy a third ticket under an alias.
The rest was simple. Lan Jue and Zhou Qianlin passed through security, and then Su Xiaosu was released from her interdimensional storage device.
Today's the third watch, asking for monthly votes, asking for recommendation votes.
