Chapter 43: Chapter 42: Blake Ash
___________
AT THE SAME TIME IN THE NORTHEASTERN EMPIRE THE HEGEMON OF THE NORTHEASTERN CONTINENT INSIDE THE PALACE AT THE ASH DUKEDOM.
"It's been 3 years 2 months and 6 days and the young Lord hasn't come to this area yet." said Divine who have been awaiting Twrak since she left her address with SX
" Is it until I get married off to some fucken official will he comes to find me. Oh wait wait, what am I even thinking ...." Divine starts to blush deeply after thinking like that.
"Did the Young Lord even like me at all, or did he even remember me, and has he even forgotten about me and thought of it as a normal occurrence in the forest, but I~ i can't keep denying this feeling." Divine said while feeling her heartbeat,and she couldn't help but look down so she won't cry and she continues
" I fell for him at that moment when he first spoke. I don't know how to explain but I can tell that I have already given myself to him then, but he couldn't even see me off and even the guard just told me his name and no information about him at all hmmm ahhh!!!" Divine has not finish speaking when she felt a huge palm landed on her shoulder and was startled because she's the only one in the room and she didn't heard anyone opening the door.
"What have you been thinking about daughter" Divine father Blake Ash said. Now he has an Aura that belongs to those at the Earth Sovereign Stage expert, the poisoning has been a blessing in disguise for him because after he use the antidote to nullify it, instead of the poison to be extract from his body it was converted to energy which help him boosts his stagnant cultivation to the peak and after 3 years of constant hard working he achieves what he didn't dream becoming in the next few decade to come and he can also be counted among the family sovereigns now.
But he as a Duke who knows what power each country holds he knows that he's not powerful yet, and also at this stage now he has just 5 more years to spend at the position before he passes it to the next successor which was supposed to be Divine Ash, before he himself will become an elder of the clan and also enjoy the top resources kept for those at the sovereigns stages. But now things have changed, using the excuse that Divine takes the warriors of the clan without permission and then lose almost 70 percent of them before coming back, the group of elders decide to punish her by revoking her privileges to become the heir and marrying her off to the best candidate. So right now they are looking to marry her off to some distance place so as to be assured she can't fight for the position of the Duke or Family Head again.
"Have you been thinking about the new candidate they came up with for you" Blake said and then he sighs before he continues
"I know that if not for the risk you take, we that are the remaining of our lineage would have likely been turned into a slave now by those power hungry clan members of ours, but it is also this risk that makes you lose your chance of being free from their clutches, i am very sorry my daughter " Blake said with a guilt fill expression because he knew if she hadn't done that then he would have die of poison and the Duke lineage would be changed, but those elders knowing that it was a scheme still side with the others because the clan Heaven and Saints stage doesn't have the right to meddle with the clan affairs and the tribulation expert doesn't even care at all. Some of them has been even stationed at the borders or have been given missions. And their lineage doesn't have any earth Sovereign among the one who control the clans anymore again, that means in the elder position they have no ally and if not that their lineage is the only one with Tribulation expert they would have revike of their right to the Duke position and would have been killed them off long ago.
