Chapter 1983 Trouble

But, Rose could have never expected that the reason her master knew the name of this array wasn't because of her own breadth of knowledge, but rather because she had learned it from Dyon himself on the day he shattered that barrier and finally united the mortal plane!

Unfortunately, she was unaware, so seeing Dyon's figure, she panicked.

"This idiot! Master wasted her life so that he could live yet he's come here to throw it away so casually?!"

Rose flew into a rage, readying herself to interfere. She knew well that she wasn't a match for even normal Higher Existences, let alone the true elite Higher Existences of the Nephilim and Sapientia. However, her master had still hoped she would protect Dyon while he needed it She could feign ignorance if she was all the way across the mortal plane from him, but if she was right before him She couldn't in good conscience!

Dyon didn't seem to hear the commotion below.

He curled his forefinger's knuckle, using it to tap on the exterior sh.e.l.l of the array.

"Oh my, what a hard sh.e.l.l you all have here. Do you mind pulling it down for me, please?"

The faces of those below twisted. Was he really taking this to be a game? Since when could the Immortal Blood Gong Array be put up and taken down as some n.o.body pleased?

However, once again, Dyon's actions caused the elders to be in no small shock.

The Immortal Blood Gong array couldn't be touched simply because you were near it. In fact, the reason for its blood t.i.tle wasn't because of its red color, but rather because every touch sucked the life blood of the instigator away.

That was right. Not regular blood But Blood Essence!

Those who understood this truth knew how shocking it was. Blood Essence was impossible to access without the consent of its owner. This was how beasts were able to protect their bloodlines from falling into the hands of humans. Yet, this array was actually able to forcefully s.n.a.t.c.h it!

But, even more shocking was the fact that Dyon casually touched its exterior without anything happening to him!

"Oh? No one wants to help me out?" Dyon frowned as though he felt wronged. After several seconds of no one responding to him, of course he had to follow up.

Unable to take it anymore, a member of the Giant Clans stepped forward.

"The Immortal Blood Gong barrier can't be raised and lowered on a whim!" He roared.

It was clear that this Giant was enraged. He had been looking forward to displaying his battle prowess for the whole mortal plane to witness and maybe earn himself a place on the Heaven Scroll. Yet, some n.o.body was actually mucking up the proceedings.

"Why not?" Dyon asked innocently.

"An ignorant fool like yourself can't imagine the amount of resources needed to put it up just once. This barrier can withstand the a.s.sault of dozens of Higher Existences for several weeks, even months if necessary!"

"So amazing!" Dyon's mouth widened in surprise.

"Hmph. Scram!" The Giant roared. "Once the barrier is lowered, there'll naturally be someone to deal with you!"

"I do have a question though." Dyon said with a light smile, completely ignoring his threats. "What exactly is the point of this barrier? All of the elites of the mortal plane are already gathered inside and there isn't some grand enemy on the outside, right? So why waste so many resources? It can't just be that the Nephilim like to show off their wealth, right?"

The Giant's face froze, because as Dyon was speaking, not only had he taken a casual step forward and slipped through the barrier But so had the three women behind him!

Suddenly, everyone sensed the mocking intent behind his words This person had come to stir trouble!

"Aiya." Dyon looked around in disappointment. "I thought you said that array was amazing? Seems I just slipped and fell in"

Little Alauna covered her lips and giggled. She had never seen her father in action before, he mostly hid it from her. But, it seemed he was even more mischievous that she was. Even in the face of so many Higher Existences, he was actually slapping their faces so severely.

It was obvious Dyon could have strolled in whenever he felt like it. But he actually first goaded an 'expert' into explaining just how amazing the array was first before doing so. It seemed like a minor change, but judging by the ugly expressions on the faces of the elders, it was still a resounding blow.

Dyon shook his head, taking a casual glance around. His eyes lit up when he noticed Rose and Jade. A weight on his heart was dropped immediately afterward. It seemed Jade had finally resolved her manifestation's problem.

By then, Saru and Lilith had inexplicably disappeared. From start to end, Dyon was never aware of their appearance.

Jade's gaze darted around nervously. Though she was eager to return to Dyon, she was also nervous to face him head on Her memories had been sealed, but she was still an intelligent individual. She could tell by the odd relations.h.i.+p between her master and Dyon that something deeper was going on. And, she could faintly feel that it was somehow her fault.

The final result was a apprehensive and jumpy Jade, whereas the Jade Dyon had always known was as confident and witty as himself. The change was far too drastic.

Unfortunately, he could only sigh in his heart. Sealing her memories probably wasn't the ideal solution Still, now wasn't the time to deal with these things.

'Maybe Miss Everdeen's spirit found its way to the Elvin Tombs In that case, maybe the only way Jade can let this stone rest from her heart is to speak with her directly'

With this final thought, Dyon turned his attention back to coliseum below.

It had quite an ancient design, reminiscent of Roman times. A section of its body was cut out to form an elevated platform that loomed high in the skies. There was no doubt that this housed the most qualified elders, of which the most obvious at a single glance was the old man whose height was looming even while he sat on his throne.

As Dyon casually scanned the surroundings, he suddenly found something interesting that made him tilt his head in surprise. His gaze met the panicked gazes of Amell and Nora, Madeleine's biological parents!
