"Now that I have the Great Star Chart, it will soon be time for me to acquire the Great Star Dynasty," the figure murmured with beaming confidence and an apparent killing intent after obtaining the Great Star Chart.
The figure then flew towards the destination of the Void Tree.
...
As they entered the area, Ricky felt as if he had entered a primitive zone. In this zone, he could feel the breath of the original energy.
Soon, all their eyes were diverted to a huge grey tree located at the center of the zone.
The giant grey tree stood right in the middle of the void and had millions of python-like roots. The giant tree occupied the entire space in the middle. Each branch was as broad as a square.
"Could this be the Void Tree?" they all exclaimed in shock as they saw the enormous tree. It was so huge that it seemed like it shaded the whole world.
Howl! Howl!
Their bewilderment was cut short as angry roars snappily rang through the air. Seven Void Beasts from the Void Tree instantly appeared and rushed to their direction. The beasts surrounded Ricky and his companions. Judging from their senses, they seemed to be first-class upper spiritual kings.
"Ha-ha! I'm finally able to see you in the flesh, Void Tree!" At this time, Vincent did not look at the seven Void Beasts. He was too enthralled by the beastly might and grandeur of the Void Tree that he couldn't hold back himself. He marveled at the massive beauty before him and laughed excitedly.
"Then the Void Cell belongs to us, the Ling Clan,"
"What did you say, Vincent?" Selene spat at Vincent. She couldn't believe his words.
"Oh? Didn't you hear it clearly?" Vincent turned to look Selene in the eye. "I meant every word. The Void Cell now belongs to the Ling Clan." His eyes carried a steely gaze. He was not about to entertain any objections. Slowly, a determined smile formed on his lips. "Well, to be more exact, the Great Star Dynasty will soon be our the Ling Clan's. And you, Selene, and the woman behind you can both be my concubines."
Vincent's once steely gaze was soon glazed with strong lust. His obscene eyes wantonly scanned the bodies of Selene and Pearl.
"Vincent, what the hell did you say? Didn't you promise me that you will only have no one else but me in your life!?" Sela asked angrily before Selene and the others could respond.
"Ha-ha! It's so stupid of you to believe me. Don't be so full of yourself just because you're pretty. If it weren't for the fact that I needed you to unseal the Great Star Chart, I would have long abandoned you." Vincent mockingly laughed at Sela's jealousy.
"I think I can understand now why your father chose your sister over you. You are so stupid and terrible. You would rather believe me than your father and your sister. Ha-ha!
On the other hand, I really have to thank you as well. Without you, it would've been impossible for the Ling Clan to acquire both the Void Tree and the Void Cell."
Sela was struck hard by Vincent's heartless and brash revelation. She went limp and sat down hopelessly on the ground. She felt extremely hurt. She was a woman cheated on by the one she loved dearly. She didn't know what else to do.
Just a moment ago, Sela felt like she was in cloud nine. But now, she felt like she was sent straight to the burning depths of in hell.
'The evils that she has brought on herself are the hardest to bear.' Ricky sighed inwardly at the sight of the awkward scene. "How could you believe an ambitious man over your own father?" He pinched the bridge of his nose.
"Sela!" Tears streamed down Selene's face. Although they shared the same father and were born from different mothers, Sela was still her elder sister. Blood was indeed, thicker than water, regardless of how strained their relationship had been.
"Ha-ha, let's get it on, then. Remember, don't hurt Selene and that woman." Vincent couldn't care less about Sela and how devastated she was feeling. He simply laughed in excitement.
The four people behind him rushed to Ricky and his companions. Vincent was the first to attack the seven Void Beasts. After all, they were not willing to let off the Void Beasts.
"Vincent, you are courting death!" With a solemn roar, Ares turned into a Scarlet King Ape and rushed towards the four. Selene also joined the battle with the four.
Before Vincent could finish his sentence, a long whip had appeared in Pearl's hand. It was condensed with the Feminine Enlightenment and she hurled it so that it could leave a deep and harsh on a disarmed Vincent.
The whip's speed was so fast that Vincent needed more than a second to think of his next move. In the nick of time, his pupils suddenly shrank and he condensed an enlightenment shield to defend against the whip.
Bang! The sound of metal colliding rang through the air. The long, dark whip directly hit the shield that Vincent created at the last minute. The strong force poured down, and Vincent was forced to take a few hundred meters back into the void.
"How could it be?" Vincent asked hoarsely as he stood back on his feet. There was disbelief in his eyes.
The four disciples from the Ling Clan, along with Selene and Ares, all felt their jaws drop.
It was only a single blow from Pearl, and yet she was able to push Vincent several paces away.
Vincent's ferocity grew tenfold. It was then that he realized Pearl was not simple woman.
Pearl should only be able to make a breakthrough as a first-class upper spiritual king. Her strength was no weaker than that of an upper spiritual king at peak state. It only meant that she was among those first-class geniuses.
"Woman, who are you and which empire are you from?" he queried sternly. Little by little, his once arrogant and mocking demeanor shifted to a darker and more serious one.
"You're not deserving enough to know!" Pearl replied coldly.
"Ha-ha!" Vincent burst into a loud, hearty laughter. "Very good! Very good! I like cold-hearted women like you."
No longer holding back, Vincent released the momentum that belonged to an upper spiritual king at peak state.
