Dyon looked over in interest . Madeleine's master was someone he very much didn't like, for obvious reasons, but for Madeleine to mention her, it much be something important .

Even more surprisingly, it was Ri who continued the story .

"Remember when we realized how fl.u.s.ter Uncle Acacia was?"

Dyon's eyes widened . "No way . "

Ri's giggle turned into a fit of laughter that didn't stop for minutes . In the end, she was holding onto her stomach, clearly wheezing .

"You should have seen them .

"Evelyn came here with Connery in hopes that would soften Madeleine's position, but when they saw each other they went beet red .

"Ask Clara or Madeleine if you think I'm lying, but uncle quite literally spit out his wine . "

Dyon chuckled . What a twist of fate .

He had wondered why Uncle Acacia hadn't come out to defend Ri when Evelyn attacked her, but now he knew why . He simply didn't have the face to .

Thinking about it, Uncle Acacia probably sighed a huge breath of relief when Dyon appeared . At least then he wouldn't have to do anything .

From the beginning, Dyon had always wondered just why the Elves believed the story of Ri being his daughter so easily . It turned out that Uncle Acacia really had had a human girlfriend in the past .

But, in true Evelyn fas.h.i.+on, she turned down all marriages for the sake of her research . Which was likely why she had been pus.h.i.+ng for Madeleine to marry Lionel, to make up for her own mistakes . After all, marrying the Prince of the Elvin Kingdom would be quite a b.u.mp up in her current status .

"Then what's going on between them now?" Dyon asked .

"Still nothing . Despite his reaction, Uncle wasn't happy at all that she attacked us . Add that to the fact that Evelyn was a cold and secluded individual to begin with, and I doubt that relations.h.i.+p is going to go anywhere . " Ri explained .

"I see . That's a shame . I wanted Uncle Acacia to blow some steam . "

"Uncle Acacia is a very nice man, don't try and corrupt him," Clara said, nibbling away at what looking like a croissant . It seemed she had asked the Belmonts to make some human world food .

Dyon laughed, but didn't respond, quietly listening to the rest of the happenings .

"After we got settled into the castle, King Belmont was still very angry . In fact, I don't think he's gotten over it at all .

"He wanted to destroy all of the rebelling sects and even declare war on the other planets, but that was when we told him about the threat of the Uidah . As much as we hate them now, if we can't use their man power to defend, we'd be in trouble .

"So, King Belmont handed over the Niveus G.o.d Sect to Little Delia, who's grown up quite a lot from when last you saw her . Her and Eli are also a lot closer and seemingly less shy about their relations.h.i.+p .

"PatiNeva and his wife have been on an extended vacation, although they do pop in from time to time . So, Delia has been very happy, even though there seems to be something wrong with Eli's cultivation . "

Dyon frowned . "There's something wrong?"

Madeleine shook her head . "Maybe wrong is the wrong way to put it . He's just really… slow . It may just be that he doesn't have much talent . "

The room went silent . Although no one said it out loud, everyone understood just what this meant .

There was a reason martial artists didn't often marry early despite often being promised and betrothed early . It was because of the drastic differences in age expectancy between different levels of cultivation . Even the difference between a single meridian in the dao formation realm was thousands of years .

However, that didn't meant that there wasn't a problem at the lower levels as well .

Based on Eli's place of birth, it wasn't surprising if a person never reached the meridian formation stage in their entire lives . If Eli was measured up against those people, he was progressing just fine . In fact, if people of the martial world could live for 500 years like foundation experts could, they would be delirious with joy .

But… Delia was already in the essence gathering stage . Even if she never again improved, she would have 1 500 years of life without Eli at a minimum . This would only get worse when she became a saint .

Of course, there were medicines capable of lengthening life of mortal and lower martial experts by even thousands of years . And Dyon, seeing Eli as a friend, wouldn't hesitate for a moment to spend whatever amount of transcendent stones was necessary . But… Even those things had a limit .

With Delia's talent, there was no doubt that she'd become a dao formation expert, especially with the resources of the tower . Even with how over confident Dyon was about so many things, could he really find a plant or make a pill capable of extending life by hundreds of thousands of years? . . .

Some might say that the two could simply dual cultivate . If Delia was powerful, wouldn't she be able to bring Eli along?

The problem with that idea was the very same problem Dyon had before he received a capable Primordial Yang .

If the male was weak, aside from the initial boost received in taking a strong woman's virginity, there would be little other benefits . Their dual cultivating would follow a law of diminis.h.i.+ng returns until Eli completely stopped improving . Without a primordial yang capable of properly refining a powerful primordial yin, dual cultivating with a powerful woman was simply a fool's errand .

However, Dyon didn't want to give up on his friend so easily .

Dyon shook his head . "There's something special about Eli . I know it . "

At first, the girls thought Dyon was just saying this to remain in denial for a bit longer, but that was when Ri seemed to remember was Dyon did .

"You mean?"

Dyon nodded . "He can't possibly be normal . "

Eli had spent years as a pill slave of the Cavositas . And yet, he was booted away because he seemed to never react to the pills given him . He was even immune to poison! How could he be normal?

The question was… Just what was he?
