Chapter 1237 J-Just what are you talking about?

"Now that I have the chance,

I will never let you go, Riona."

Nux spoke with a big smile on his face. Riona widened her eyes in surprise, her face turning red. Feeling his hand touching her, she felt a burning sensation in her entire body. Her heart started racing and Riona knew that if she didn't do anything, she would be completely under this shameless pervert's control.

"S-Stop!!"

She shouted.

Then, with the intent to escape from this situation, she changed the topic,

"Now is not the time to talk about all this! We need to worry about the Dragon Lord! He might attack the elves, we need to prepare for it."

"He won't attack, don't worry," Nux spoke with a confident smile on his face, his hand however, still caressing Riona's lower back, only teasing her perky butt but never touching it.

Right now, he wasn't even using any force to keep Riona from going away, the woman was sticking to him on her own accord without realizing it.

Amaya, who noticed that, couldn't help but look at her mother with a smug look on her face.

How many times has her mother called her a fool for her husband? The number was so large that Amaya couldn't even keep a count.

Now, however, the time when she could get her revenge was close.

"This is the Dragon Lord we are talking about! That man is too unreasonable and can do whatever he wants. You cannot predict his actions, there are 40 Divine Stage Dragons flying near the Elven Forest, if he does order an Attack, the 30 Divine Stage Elves won't be able to resist!"

In the battle between Divine Stage Cultivators, the rest were merely cannon fodders, their numbers did not matter.

So even though there were only 40 Dragons attacking, those 40 were enough to annihilate the entire Elven Forest of the face of Yrniel.

"The Vampires will not help and you know it!" Riona added.

Alaric's stance about this all was still the same.

A fight between so many Divine Stage Cultivators would bring too much destruction. If Vampires join in, it might even mark the end of Yrniel. The Vampire King would keep a neutral stance throughout the case.

Even back then when Arcturus had decided to attack Nux in the Human Trial, the only reason Alaric was there was to intimidate Arcturus. He would have never allowed a head-on battle.

Amaya was the one who came up with the idea. After talking with Vyriana for so long, she understood one thing, the Order never cared about the people of Yrniel, however, this didn't mean they didn't care about Yrniel altogether.

They were fighting the otherworlders to protect Yrniel, they couldn't possibly allow it to be destroyed because of some infighting.

Alaric coming there and deciding to go 'all out' with his forces to face Arcturus's Forces was Amaya's way to manipulate everything and force the Ancestral Order to make a move.

The Vampire King was in this plan from the start, he had also stated that if the Ancestral Order didn't make a move within the first 10 minutes, he would retreat.

So although Alaric did 'side' with Nux in that ordeal, in truth, the Vampires couldn't be considered allies. In this fight against the Dragons, Nux and his people had to rely on themselves.

In this scenario, saving their people was of utmost importance! The Elven Divine Stage Cultivators, and the Elven People, to get Lyriana's full support, they needed to ensure both their safety.

"You are thinking too much, Riona." n).0velbIn

Nux, however, was calm.

"We know that Alaric isn't on our side, Arcturus does not." He spoke.

"What can I do for you, my lady~" Nux questioned, knowing exactly where this was going.

"My dear mother,

Help her cultivate."

"W-What...?"

Riona couldn't understand, but suddenly,

"As you command, my lady," Nux spoke as he then sealed Riona's lips.

"!!!"

Riona's eyes widened in surprise.

She wanted to move away, however, for some reason, she couldn't do it. Rather, she just closed her eyes and stopped thinking about everything that had been bothering her all this while.

All of this was simply too complicated to make sense of.

It was much better to simply shut her brain and go with the flow.

Seeing that she had given in, Nux left Amaya and gently grabbed Riona. Continuously, rubbing her back to calm her stiff body.

He could tell that it was a difficult decision for her, so he wanted to make her as comfortable as possible. The boundaries they were going to cross, he wanted to take this slow.

Nux ended the kiss, not using the tongue.

He then stared at Riona, waiting for her to open her eyes.

Riona took a moment, then, she finally opened her eyes, her entire body trembling, her face full of uncertainty.

"Be mine, Riona."

Nux spoke as he sealed her lips again.

It was just a short peck on her lips, however, Nux didn't stop and kissed her again, then again, and again, and he continued this till Riona's body had stopped trembling.

One last time, Riona glanced at her daughter who was standing behind Nux, Amaya nodded with a genuine smile on her face and Riona finally closed her eyes.

She had truly given in and decided to go with what her heart desired.

"You are currently an Incomplete Emperor Stage Cultivator."

Suddenly, Nux brought up a strange topic that made Riona open her eyes and frown.

What was he suddenly talking about at a time like this?

Nux, however, continued,

"Although we do need to tackle the problem of you being an Incomplete Cultivation, according to what Vyriana said,

With your age, if your Cultivation declines to the Expert Stage after recreating your foundation, it will lead to serious issues since an Expert Stage Cultivator, no matter whether Complete or Incomplete, cannot stay alive for longer than 200 years.

So first, in order to ensure your safety, we need to increase your Cultivation to at least Great Sage Level before I give you the technique to rebuild your foundation."

Nux spoke and Riona had question marks all over her face.

"J-Just what are you talking about?"
