Chapter 1555 Back

The Flaming Lily Sect army was hesitant. How could they not be? But, they knew there was no turning back. It was clear that for some reason or another, their usually calm and loving senior sister had suddenly had her bottom line crossed. There wasn't just a normal amount of hate in her eyes It seemed as though it could spill over and form into a tangible being at any moment.

"Those who are not of the Sapientia Clan and would like to not be swept up in this matter, I suggest that you leave now." Madeleine's voice coldly swept over Middle Sapientia City.

'Big sister.' Lyla sent a message to Madeleine. 'This Primus character is hiding something. No, someone. His gla.s.ses seem to have the ability to partially block my senses. But, I'm certain that he's hiding a person important to us somewhere in this city, most likely the Sapientia House located in the core region of the city.'

Madeleine's eyes narrowed at these words.

An item capable of blocking the abilities of a True Empath? The only item Madeleine knew of that was capable of such a thing was Dyon's Seal. Other than that, she had never come across another Maybe Dyon's Lightning Willow mask might be able to replicate the feat to a partial extent.

It seemed there truly was a secret behind the gla.s.ses of the Sapientia. Maybe that was why Amethyst not only burnt away Madeleine's Sapientia blood, but also went out of her way to destroy her gla.s.ses as well.

Now that Madeleine thought about it, she had a hard time remembering exactly how her gla.s.ses became hers. That sort of feeling sent a s.h.i.+ver down her spine that only grew her disgust.

Below, the remains of the Golden Crow Sect were holding on by a thin thread. Claire might have been correct about the fact this attack would make the Sacharro Clan enemies of many, but what she hadn't accounted for was both the willingness and the decisiveness with which Madeleine acted.

When Madeleine was introduced as a Sacharro, Dyon had long since claimed the first place of the first trial in less than two years. From then on, although Madeleine had great accomplishments for herself, they were always tied to a statement reading 'Dyon Sacharro's wife'. Whether by design or subconsciously, this made many underestimate the abilities of Madeleine herself as a result.

Maybe if Dyon had been here personally, Claire would have known that her hope to escape in the brief period of Madeleine's hesitancy would be foolhardy. But, seeing it was Madeleine alone that cornered her in this way, she couldn't help but be shocked.

Even if her Clan won in the end, even if the Sacharro Clan would be finished after this, what did it matter to her if she was dead?! She couldn't enjoy victory from the grave!

Primus' darkened features darkened all the more. "My Sapientia Clan has never angered or encroached upon the dignity of anyone else. We've remained in a state of perfect neutrality for millions of years, yet your overly ambitious Sacharro Clan is seeking to destroy that balance with your overbearingness.

"First you provoke Comet Lord Gallagher into betraying us, then your corner our prospects of profit, and now you're directly attacking our cities. The Martial World will not accept such a greedy Clan into our midst!"

Primus' words seemed to shake individuals, they subconsciously began to side with him. Not everyone was aware of the danger that lurked with the Sapientia's grip on information, many were ignorant. Humans were too quick to accept things simply by virtue of the fact "they had always been that way" instead of being willing to seek out better thing for themselves.

When Primus said these things, they didn't think about the fact that the Mortal Library would open a gateway to advancement for them all, or the fact the Mortal Network would lead the tower quadrants into a flouris.h.i.+ng era, all they could think about was the overbearing nature of the Sacharro Clan, never mind the fact Madeleine was attacked first.

They remembered that Dyon took away Low Enigmatic City. They remembered that he took away Low Gold City. They remembered that s.n.a.t.c.hed victory from the jaws of defeat, they remembered that he had taken Diasho Ken's life and activated his Life Saving Jade.

This was the way humans were. They couldn't possibly see Dyon as the underdog because he won too much! They couldn't put things into perspective because Dyon always shattered expectations!

Even if Dyon hadn't done anything, the general public would have begun to hate him. Even True G.o.d Star and Diasho had lost in their times. Even they, as lofty as they were now, had once understood when to take a step back. But, Dyon's star shone too brightly.

Since his debut, he had never once suffered a loss. And, any losses his subordinates suffered were paid back in full force, ten times over, the moment he appeared. It was too hard to cheer for him. He was no longer the hero, he was the villain!

In that moment, Madeleine finally rose from her place upon Damaris' head.

The tranquil expression on her beautiful features made those who were about to get riled up in anger calm. Even if her husband was a villain in their hearts, it was difficult to turn their hatred toward such a beauty. If anything, the fact she was so beautiful only made Dyon more of a villain.

Violet flames began to swirl, forming in a majestic bird of fire the blotted out the skies.

"The dignity of the Sacharro Clan isn't something the likes of you can trample upon."

Injuries that had acc.u.mulated deep within Madeleine's body began to heal at a rapid pace. Her body quickly reconstructed itself, blooming to a new level.

Her reincarnation and life characteristics were back!

Madeleine's body began to glow with a blinding golden light as she began to change once more.
