God Of War Dad

Sandals’ reaction was huge, as if she had heard the most unbelievable news in the world. The shock in her expression was indescribable. The violent emotional fluctuations even caused her core Bright Energy to lose control slightly!

Shock!

If the moment of confirming Sean’s identity earlier had filled Sandals with tremendous joy and surprise, mixed more with delight, then the news of King Ron’s death brought her nothing but utter astonishment!

Nothing but shock!

Still shock!!!

“Dead!”

“That scoundrel King Ron is dead!”

Meeting Sandals’ shocked gaze, Sean nodded very solemnly and said, “Aunt Sandals, a few days ago, great changes happened in the imperial city. King Ron died miserably. Now the Shirine Empire is beset by domestic and foreign troubles, tossed by wind and rain. It has already been taken over by King Ron’s son, King Roscoe. For a long time to come, I’m afraid there will be no peace!”

Yes!

Although King Roscoe had taken the throne and controlled the imperial city, his own strength was lacking. He was merely a late stage Dark Energy cultivator and had yet to break through to the Complete Stage!

However!

With all the North Kingdom envoys led by Andrew Heisler having died in the imperial city, the North Kingdom would definitely not let this rest. Even less would they give King Roscoe any breathing room. A war between nations would be inevitable!

At that time!

What could King Roscoe use to resist the military might of the North Kingdom?

As the saying goes!

He who would wear the crown must bear its weight!

King Roscoe had previously struggled against Crown Prince Ashby and King Ron, fighting over the position of Crown Prince and Emperor. Now he had gotten his wish, but the threat of the North Kingdom would be the real test for him!

If he failed!

It would not only be a disaster for King Roscoe and the imperial clan, but also a disaster for the entire Shirine Empire!!!

“Dead…”

“Dead…”

“I endured for so many years, prepared for so many years, cultivated painstakingly for so many years, yet before I could make a move to kill him, he died…”

Thump!

Sandals was stunned for a good few minutes. After confirming the news of King Ron’s death, her whole body collapsed like a deflated ball, slumping down to squat beside Sean on the cushion, eyes blank, expression frozen, mumbling repetitively!

She didn’t know that all these years, it was precisely because of her bone-deep hatred for King Ron and making killing King Ron her life’s goal, single-mindedly focused on avenging herself, that Sandals was always full of fighting spirit, striving her utmost to improve herself and secretly build up her own power!

It was no exaggeration to say that the existence of King Ron had already become Sandals’ driving force to move forward!

And now!

Sean had suddenly told her that King Ron was dead!

In her shock!

There was no sadness!

No joy!

Only a feeling that the hatred, the driving force that had supported her all this time, seemed to have collapsed along with it!

“Alas…”

Seeing Sandals’ somewhat distracted state, Sean couldn’t help sighing softly. He naturally understood Sandals’ mood at this moment, so he just sat there quietly without speaking to comfort her or changing the subject, giving Sandals enough time to slowly digest it herself!

After about ten minutes!

“He…”

Sandals took a deep breath, raised her head to look at Sean, and asked, “How exactly did he die? Tell me everything from beginning to end, in detail!”

Not being able to personally kill King Ron was a huge regret for Sandals!

But!

She still wanted to know the process of King Ron’s miserable death. If she couldn’t see it with her own eyes, she would at least hear about it with her own ears!

It was a kind of psychological comfort!

“Alright!”

So for the next half hour or so, Sean recounted in detail everything that had happened after he retired from the north, hiding nothing as he told Sandals exactly as she asked, with no detail left out!

Sandals listened!

Without interjecting a single word from start to finish!

Only after Sean finished speaking did she gnash her teeth and coldly snort, “Good! Killed him well!!!”

“This scoundrel!”

“Dying so easily, it was too good for him! If he had fallen into my hands, I would have made sure he could neither live nor die! I would have pulled out his tendons and peeled off his skin, ground his bones to ashes, so that even in the Nine Serenities Hell, he could never have a moment’s peace!!!”

As she spoke!

Sandals released her Bright Energy, filling the entire mountainside space with an extremely oppressive, murderous aura!

Her hatred for King Ron really penetrated into her bones!

Even in death!

Even having self-detonated his body and left not even a corpse behind, such a miserable end still could not satisfy Sandals. In her eyes, even such a death was still too “easy”!

To this!

Sean opened his mouth but had no words…

“Zhan’er!”

“All these years, Auntie wasn’t by your side and failed in my responsibilities, unable to protect you, Cecilia and Phyllis well, letting you all suffer…”

After cursing King Ron, when she looked at Sean again, Sandals’ originally fierce gaze instantly turned soft and gentle. Her eyes were misty with warmth as she gently said, “But don’t worry!”

“Since Cecilia is your wife, and has gained Master’s prophecy and approval, activating Master’s drop of pure blood, I definitely won’t let anything happen to her!”

“Definitely!!!”

Hearing this!

Sean’s eyes flashed sharply and his heart shuddered violently. His whole face was filled with excitement as he hurriedly asked, “Does Aunt Sandals mean you really have a way to save Cecilia???”

Able!

Able to!

Must be able to!

Sean held his breath, staring at Sandals without moving his eyes, afraid to see Sandals shake her head, afraid to hear Sandals say the word “can’t”!

“Yes!”

Sandals naturally understood Sean’s concerns, so she nodded without hesitation. Seeing Sean’s delighted expression, her tone suddenly took a turn as she added, “But…”

But???

Damn!

The smile that had just appeared on Sean’s face instantly froze there as he asked, “But what?”

“There are methods, yes!”

“And!”

“Two in total!”

Sandals thought for a moment and said, “The two methods are different approaches and will have different effects!”

“Oh?”

Sean was surprised: “Aunt Sandals, please explain more clearly!”

As long as she could be saved!

That was a good premise.

As for how exactly to save her, from Sandals’ words, it seemed the differences were quite major, needing Sean to consider carefully!

“Mm!”

Sandals nodded, then looked up at the Sword of God hovering overhead, explaining: “This sword, legend says, was left behind by the gods of ancient times, thus it is called the Sword of God!”

“As for the Sword of God, Master didn’t say much about it. All I know is that the first time I followed Master here, it was already quietly hovering here like now. I don’t know how many ups and downs it has experienced over the ages!”

“Just now!”

“You must have personally felt the aura the Sword of God emits. This aura brings great benefits to cultivators. It can help those with special bloodlines activate their bloodlines. It can also help those who have already activated their bloodlines enhance their strength, achieving twice the result with half the effort, with very significant effects!”

“Take me for example!”

“If not for the Sword of God, I’m afraid I still wouldn’t have been able to advance to the Bright Realm by now!”

“Or take those little girls Spring and Winter for example. In fact, many of them are already in their thirties, but they look like young girls in their twenties. This is also thanks to the Sword of God!”

“The aura emitted by the Sword of God is too abundant. If you cultivate here for a long time, you’ll find that while your strength and realm are advancing rapidly, your body ages much slower than ordinary people!”

“Even I can’t figure out the profound mysteries within!”

“As for Cecilia…”

“Previously, she forcibly activated Master’s drop of pure blood and battled King Ron desperately. Although she fell unconscious from her heavy injuries, already at death’s door, fortunately Master showed consideration because she is your wife. To preserve Cecilia’s life, she didn’t completely burn up her bloodline. So as long as we bring her here and place her under the Sword of God, letting her bathe in the Sword of God’s radiance while I personally use the Sword of God’s aura to heal her injuries, it should not be too difficult to awaken her!”

“The only thing is…”

“It might take some time, at least a month, up to half a year!”

“This!”

“Is one method, saving Cecilia this way. After she wakes up, she will be the same as before, an ordinary mundane person!”

“In this life,”

“She is destined to have no fate with the path of cultivation!”

An ordinary person?

Sandals’ explanation was very clear, but it left Sean somewhat puzzled. He frowned and asked, “Does Aunt Sandals mean the second method can allow Cecilia to embark on the path of cultivation, instead of remaining an ordinary mundane person???”

Previously!

Ever since Sean had revealed his true identity and strength, Cecilia had felt guilty and strangely inferior, feeling the gap between her, a mere mortal, and Sean was too great, like the distance between heaven and earth. She couldn’t help Sean and would only become a burden, dragging him down!

If!

She could turn this misfortune into a blessing this time, gaining an opportunity to embark on the path of cultivation, she would surely be extremely, extremely happy, right???

“That’s right!”

Sandals’ reply confirmed Sean’s guess. Her previously relaxed expression also turned somewhat grave as she solemnly said, “The greater the effort, the greater the reward!”

“The second method can indeed help rebuild Cecilia’s bloodline, taking advantage of her original bloodline being nearly burnt out to thoroughly start anew, using external forces and objects to replace her bloodline, allowing her to be reborn!”

“By then!”

“If successful, not only can she start channel opening cultivation, but her talent for cultivation will probably be no less than yours or mine. She will definitely be a monstrous genius who improves by leaps and bounds!!!”

Hearing this!

Sean couldn’t help his eyes lighting up!

One should know!

With the inheritance of Liane’s bloodline, Sean’s talent was already far above the Shirine imperial clan’s bloodline. Looking at the entire Shirine Empire, probably no one could compare!

However!

Despite knowing Sean’s tremendous talent, Sandals categorically stated that if Cecilia could successfully replace her bloodline, her talent for cultivation might even surpass Sean’s!

This…

This sounded somewhat inconceivable!!!

Sandals saw through Sean’s thoughts at a glance, knowing what he was thinking. So without waiting for Sean to ask, she took the initiative to explain, “I say this naturally for good reason, not groundlessly!”

“The reason is simple!”

“Compared to the first method, the second method is a hundred times more difficult, because the thing needed for this method, looking at the whole world, a second one cannot be found!”

“There are a total of three!”

“First, it’s Master’s powerful bloodline. Moreover, it needs to be when Cecilia is at death’s door, her original bloodline nearly burnt out. Master is using her powerful bloodline to support Cecilia, preserving the last breath of life in her body. This is Cecilia’s current state!”

“Even a tiny bit more or less won’t work. Master grasped it just right. I believe she arranged it this way to give you and Cecilia a chance to choose for yourselves!”

That is to say!

It needed Liane’s powerful bloodline, but not just Liane’s powerful bloodline. It even more crucially required perfect timing and perfect conditions. If Cecilia hadn’t activated Liane’s drop of pure blood before, or if she had activated it without getting injured to such an extent, or if she had been injured to such an extent without Liane’s personal intervention…

No!

None of that would work!

Every step had to be just right, with Cecilia’s own original bloodline right on the verge of burning away, yet not burnt away, right at death’s door yet not dead, precisely on that knife edge between life and death!

Only this would work!!!

And this!

Was just one of the three prerequisite conditions Sandals mentioned.

What about the second?

And the third?

Sean’s previously excited and elated expression also turned extremely grave at this moment as he asked, “Then… Aunt Sandals, what’s the second thing needed?”

“It’s that!”

Sandals pointed again at the Sword of God overhead and said, “The process of replacing the bloodline consumes a massive amount of aura to protect the thread of life of the one replacing their bloodline. In this regard, looking at the whole world, only the Sword of God is capable of this!”

The Sword of God!

Again the Sword of God!

Fortunately!

Truly fortunate!

Liane’s bloodline was unfathomably powerful. It just so happened that she had always secluded herself in the paradise beneath Sunsetting Ridge, so the Sword of God was originally her possession!

Otherwise!

As Sandals had just said, even just these two things, Liane’s powerful bloodline and the abundant aura of the Sword of God, who the hell could gather them both at once???

And now!

Under Liane’s meticulous arrangements, two of the three items were readily available, already prepared in advance. This made Sean’s wildly thumping heart filled with an indescribable warmth!

A mother’s love!

Like water!

Sean had never truly met Liane face-to-face while growing up, yet she had always cared for him and protected him from somewhere unknown to him!!!

It felt like… having a mother!

How wonderful!Têxt © NôvelDrama.Org.

Sandals paused briefly, then said, “What I just said, Master has already prepared for us. But for the last item, we can only rely on ourselves to find it!”

“Moreover!”

“Wanting to obtain that item will be as difficult as ascending to Heaven!!!”

Hearing this!

Sean’s heart thumped heavily. Sandals had reached the Bright Realm relying on the Sword of God’s power for many years now, her realm and strength definitely surpassed Sean’s. Yet even she felt it would be as difficult as ascending to Heaven. The difficulty could be seen from this!

However!

As long as there was a glimmer of hope, no matter how difficult, Sean would absolutely not give up lightly!

So!

Sean asked, “What is it?”
