Chapter 249 - Cultivation convention(6)

Nick looked at millea hoping she would deny the old mans words but instead she looked away guiltily. nick was about to get angry at this new revelation but it dawned on him that despite him technically being married to her already millea has not pushed him into the relationship forcefully but waited for him to become closer to her on his own. granted it would have been nice to know that extra baggage before he consumed the bloodline , the fact remains that he was the one who sent the proposal as it were , whereas millea merely accepted. "it doesn't matter i suppose since as you said i was the one who initiated this interaction." nick said to the old man calmly. subhuti froze since he thought he had begun to reel in this big fish when it suddenly acted completely against his expectations and ignored the hook and bit through the line. millea looked happy for a moment before nick poured a bucket of ice on her excitement "that doesn't mean we won't be having a talk about this when we get back home." nick said to her with a slight glare letting her know he was serious.

"As for you i don't like it when people try to create discord amongst my people , i will let it go this time but don't do such a thing again." nick said to the old man sternly who looked surprised before laughing. "you actually think you're able to threaten me , now that is some funny stuff right there." subhuti mocked while laughing before nick did something made him choke on his laughter from worry. nick removed a seed of destruction from his inventory while releasing some of it destructive aura making the space and earth tremble as though in fear before just as quickly suppressing the seed into silence. "perhaps i might not be able to threaten you directly but if i targeted all your allies and disciples with this how many could you save?" nick asked with an aggressive smirk. subhuti looked conflicted for a moment before he sighed in defeat "fine you win lad i am not so unreasonable to go poking a sleeping wyrm just for kicks." he said before looking at nick sternly "remember that not everyone is as understanding as i am and will fold to such a thing as mutual destruction." subhuti said warningly before leaving in a puff of smoke.

After subhuti left the trio headed back to the tent nick set up where he complained to millea because she didn't mention the proposal before they called it a day from the stress of meeting the strongest person on the planet.
