Chapter 1178: Back To China

Following her speech Eva’s father crowned her as the new Matriarch and Supreme Goddess. Afterwards the core members spent some time mingling with the members of the Radiant Lineage learning what they were all about.

Meanwhile, the Evil Trio took to the space far above the capital of modern day Japan along with the heads of the Morningstar Lineage as well as the now Radiant Lineage. Much like above Italy, the special pocket space exclusive to the Radiant Lineage was created here and then nourished to become a true small world using bloodline power.

Draco gave the key to Eva who then shared it with Akihiko, Kiyoko and Yui for them to handle the moving of all their members. They were also named the Supreme Leaders of the Radiant Lineage, meant to guide it henceforth.

Everyone spent the next few days resting within the Radiant Lineage and enjoying the Japanese culture. How many core members could claim to be resistant to the allure of Japan after being otakus for so long? Now that they were powerful and wealthy beyond measure, they all indulged themselves during their stay.

The vacation eventually ended when Eva had to use her imperial authority in Japan to bail out Misery and AP_Berzerker who basically outfucked an entire red light district worth of Japanese women.

Ironically, they only got arrested because they did not even spare the old madams who ran the brothels, making them feel young and alive again. Alas, such women all had high status after they had managed to coax their former clients into marriage, all of whom were big men, who were furious at being cucked.

This alone would have been fine, but who asked those irate fellow to dare to actually appear before Misery and AP-Berzerker and force them to apologize publically? Naturally, the two fellows mocked and laughed at those old men until many spurted blood and collapsed, leading to attempted murder accusations.

Even with power like Eva’s in terms of mundane Japanese politics, she still had to profusely apologize because many of these old men were owners of zaibatsus. They were like her uncles, at least in a way in the sense that they were tied to Japan’s deeper interests.

They might not be bloodline holders, but they could make the entire Japan and part of the world quake with their fury so Eva had her hands full. For their part, Misery and AP had the gumption to look ashamed and reformed, but when they got back, the core members threw them a party.

After all, while not everyone among the core members was promiscuous, no one was prude. To be able to share glory with these two hooligans who had performed a legendary feat meant for the book of records, how could they not be amazed?

Eva was about to chastise everyone but was left speechless when she saw that Draco and Shuangtian were in fact ring-leading the party by tossing Misery and AP into the air amidst cheers. Alright, Draco and Shuangtian did not have much affection for their country of origin, so they did not care about such things, but she do the same!

Eva could only look up to the sky and pretend not to see anything while Yui didn’t have any problems joining even though she was a pure maiden who probably did not even know how to spell the word for her own genitals.

All she knew what that there was a party and she wouldn’t be left out!

The next day, they bid their farewell as Draco opened a portal that led to China. The core members followed him through along with Dante, Lilith, Dominic, Isabella, Gremory, Akihiko and Kiyoko.

On the other side, they appeared at the ruins of the former Pangu Lineage, a place that caused everyone’s face to change. The core members remembered their battle here and felt that it was good that they rid themselves of such a group while those from the actual Lineages grit their teeth but felt complicated.

They felt reluctant to have to acknowledge that group of bastards as their allies and were extremely unwilling. The Evil Trio, especially Shuangtian, saw this but did not say anything.

Given her upbringing it was hard to deny that she was the one who hated them the most. Fortunately for everyone involved, the Evil Trio had no plans of resurrecting anyone of them, else there would have been no point in killing them in the first place. Even now, their souls were still being tortured day and night in Draco’s Nine Hells.

Rather, Draco opened a special pocket space where Eva had frozen time and then deposited what was inside on the ground. This came in the form of a few hundred people, mostly men and a few women, who wore familiar robes.

Eva unfroze time on them, allowing them to ‘return to the world’, to which they reacted with surprise. Their last memory was of being rescued by a group of powerhouses from the enemies’ Lineages before being tossed into a strange dark realm and now they were brought out?

“Fengtian? Litian! So that’s where you fellows were!” Dante exclaimed with shock, his expression mirrored by all those of his age group.

“Huh? Demonic Duo Dante and Dominic? Crazy Sisters Fyre and Lilith?! Dammit, Scholar Akihiko and Dark Eyes Kiyoko? How can this be, you’re all so young!!” Litian exclaimed with shock as he gathered his wits.

Litian looked as if he was facing the final boss, which was understandable since those were the most outstanding youths from his generation among the enemy Lineages that grew up to become their leaders.

Meanwhile, Fengtian, who was older and wiser, first noticed the Evil Trio, the core members, then Dante’s group. His eyes flickered as he patted Litian on the shoulder and walked up to Shuangtian with a look of genuine affection.

“Do I have the permission to call you granddaughter?” He asked gently.

Shuangtian sized him up. “Old fart, your eyes are full of scheming and intelligence, you are the only from my so called Lineage who isn’t a muscle brain. What exactly happened to make you like this?”

The faces of the other Pangu members by the side became awkward while Litian looked furious, about to chastise his daughter, however, one sharp look from Shuangtian made him shut up with a hint of surprise, because in that moment, Shuangtian reminded him so much of his beloved wife, her mother.

Whenever Litian dared to act tough in front of his wife, she would also give him the same look and he would immediately go quiet. He had long been laughed at by the entire lineage because he always gave in to his wife, but how could those rapist bastards understand the love he had for her? To most of them women were just sex toys.

In fact, what Litian didn’t know was that he was lucky. To give Shuangtian some good memories, Draco and Eva had created a special pocket space where Shuangtian potentially grew up normally in a simulated world, so she had two sets of memories, one of suffering and another one of how blissful her life could have been.

Because of this, there wasn’t much estrangement in Shuangtian’s heart because she had grown up under his doting and knew his behaviors like the back of her hand, which was why she even instinctively reacted like that.

If not for this, with Shuangtian’s hatred, she might have slapped his brains onto the floor regardless of parental heritage. After all, unlike Dante and Lilith who had been cursed to become incompetent parents to Draco they were nonetheless good people, yet Litian was still ‘evil’ because he led the Pangu Lineage for significant amount of time and allowed them to perform such acts.

As for Fengtian, he heard Shuangtian’s address and knew that something was up. Shuangtian was too familiar with him, as if she had interacted with him for a long period of time and was not faking it because her actions were natural.

“Before I answer… can I request whatever familiarity you have with me and Litian to be shared with us too? So that things can proceed naturally.” Fengtian asked tentatively.

Shuangtian glanced at Draco and Eva who nodded. Eva flicked a finger and ray of light entered the heads of Litian and Fengtian, which was the full information packet as well as the simulated memories from their own points of view where they raised Shuangtian normally for 21 years.

The two men were not stunned for long before their eyes changed in the way they viewed the world. Litian almost crumbled to his knees in shock, understanding how wretched their Lineage had been for the first time in his life.

Fengtian looked upward to the sky and sighed deeply as two lines of tears fell from his cheeks.

“Unforgivable. Completely unforgivable…” He muttered under his breath.

Shuangtian glanced at them faintly, not really moved. To her, this was the bare minimum as only a real dog would still be adamant in the face of such truth. The others also looked at them deeply, not the core members but the lineage members.

Seeing that Litian and Fengtian could feel this way, they felt that they was truly hope to reestablishment.

Fengtian shook his head and gestured to Misery. “As I told that young man over there when he rescued us, I had a lot of time to think while imprisoned by my own people and my mind became clearer. My son is still filled with fury at the betrayal, pain at the death of your mother and despair at what kind of treatment you would have gone through.

Forget growth, it was good enough he didn’t stagnate and turn into something worse.”

Litian would have argued before but remained silent now. He didn’t even have the face to speak to Shuangtian anymore, feeling more incompetent and useless than even Dante did towards Draco.

“Hmm, not bad. Old man, are these all the people from our line?” Shuangtian asked as she glanced at the people who were still mostly confused at the ongoing events so far.

“Most of them are. Some are those loyal to us and who were assumed to be part of our faction, so they were imprisoned with us to make sure nothing untoward happened later.” Fengtian explained as he turned back slightly to view the others.

“Hmm. Draco, if you please.” Shuangtian called out to her husband.

Draco nodded and raised a hand, sending a wave of black light sweeping over the entire group. This black light passed through some people and left nothing behind while it passed through others and stained them slightly, like Fengtian and Litian.

Some too were thoroughly stained and were almost covered head to toe with it. Draco was amazed while Eva’s eyes twitched, her bloodline itching greatly within her body while Shuangtian’s eyes narrowed.

“Those with no black light on them, stand to the left. Those with a little, stand in the middle and those with a lot, stand to the right.” Shuangtian commanded coldly.

There weren’t many with a few stains, yet even fewer with none at all, the majority of them had been tainted a lot. They all but sneered at Shuangtian, not seeing why they should obey her orders, forcing Fengtian to glance at them darkly.

“Impudent! How dare you look down on my granddaughter! Don’t you know she is the reincarnation of our Progenitor?!” Fengtian roared.

“Rubbish!”

“Utter nonsense!”

“Blasphemous!”

Those fellows roared with anger on their faces, shocking Litian and Fengtian, but everyone else folded their arms with amusement as if watching a good show. Meanwhile Shuangtian raised an eyebrow and smiled coldly, wanting her father and grandfather to experience their own ‘family’ for the first time after being ‘enlightened’.

“You fellows…” Fengtian muttered with shock.

One of them stood out, a middle aged man with a goat-like beard and sharp eyebrows, his body robust and full of muscles. He stood tall at 6 feet and folded his arms as he glanced at Fengtian with a hint of disdain in his eyes.

“Old man Fengtian, you’ve truly become muddle headed. Whether it is you or Litian, your conservative approach to dealing with those two dog Lineages has already made many dissatisfied. Otherwise do you think it would have been easy for Lingtian to overthrow you if the entire clan wasn’t behind his back?”
