BXBX NOVEL Chapter 118 One Of The Supreme Races
The people who were closest to the Origin Lust Sword were naturally the people of the former Sanctum City.
Furthermore, because of the Temple's massive structure and the area it took, many people were caught in that expansion, and many died while some of them managed to survive.
Nevertheless, there were still over a hundred thousand people present in the remaining of the Sanctum City, and all of them were looking at the massive structure up close with a complicated looks in their eyes.
They all thought they were the luckiest since they were just a few steps away from the temple, but who would've thought this temple was not like those temples described in the legends at all!
Furthermore, those who had seen Cyrus before the appearance of the temple were scared out of their mind and finally understood what kind of monster they were laughing at and even opposing.
Still, Cyrus didn't seem to care about their previous offensive and gave them an equal chance to redeem themselves like everyone else.
The people present in the Sanctum City were mostly dimension divers, and their mindsets were also different from normal folks.
At this moment, the minute passed like a breeze, but for the people present in the Origin Lust Sword Dimension, this minute could be said to be the most complicated minute of their entire life.
Cyrus finally opened his mouth after an entire minute of silence, "Alright, let's hear it. Is it yes or no? Silence will be taken as a no. Everyone needs to speak, and I'll know what you said and also know who spoke or who didn't, so playing tricks is useless against me. As I mentioned, there is only one chance. There will be no do-overs. I need you to answer in a minute. Afterward, the time limit will be over."
Cyrus then stopped speaking again, and almost instantly, many people started to utter a single word. Some shouted someone spoke mildly, and some only muttered under their breath.
"Hehe, as expected, they're all afraid of death. Even those ugly monsters are kneeling and prostrating themselves." Eve's jeering voice rang in Cyrus's mind as she could naturally see and hear whatever Cyrus could, and she seemed quite pleased.
Cyrus coolly replied, "Fear is just a temporary measure to change their mindset for the time being. Once they found out what they're singing for, I'm pretty sure they would rather die than leave this place."
"What about that vixen and another masked girl beside her? I clearly heard them talking, and the other girl seemed to know you! And what is a Dao Companion that made them queens of this place?!" Eve instantly attacked Cyrus with questions as her tone was filled with suspicion and aggravation.
More than anything out there, she was mostly paying attention to Rita and Hilda as she felt amiss from both of them, and she was also starting to have all kinds of thoughts about what Cyrus did while she was asleep.
She even tries to complain to the System as it puts her to sleep, but like Cyrus, it also ignores the little girl's rambling, and this only her even more vexed.
If she didn't want to ruin the occasion, she would've already started to pester Cyrus to no end. Now that she got the chance, she quickly demanded the truth about that strange conversation between Hilda and Rita, which gave her nothing but a bad feeling.
Cyrus didn't plan to hide from her about these things since it was her right to know as his wife, so he told her about what a Dao Companion is while those people were still speaking. He had enough time to explain the Dao Companion term, at least.
But the moment Eve heard what a Dao Companion was, she instantly exclaimed, and she sounded not pleased at all, "More than a wife?!"
Cyrus knew the little girl would react this way, so he calmly said, "Yes, more than a wife, but not exactly a wife. You are my only wife and ever will be. I'm not marrying anyone, but it's just a special position, and I think Rita deserved it."
"Then what about that masked woman!" Eve instantly retorted, but she sounded calmer as she finally grasped the meaning behind his words.
Although the Dao Companion relationship was more than a husband and wife, the relationship of Husband and Wife was still the most intimidating relationship and the status and symbol of love.
Cyrus clearly remembered his vows when he took Eve as his wife to activate the system, and that vow can't be broken, nor was he planning to break it ever.
The status of his only wife was still supreme no matter how many Dao Companions he had, and Eve also understood this point. But she felt aggravated about it, and she felt it was her right to protest.
Cyrus has never spoken with Eve in a commanding tone, unlike he did some time with Rita and always treated Eve gently, and he wasn't planning on changing this behavior at all.
"Hilda has great potential, and once she reaches the Deity Realm, you have no idea just how terrifying her 1st Rank Deity Evil Destruction Physique will become. I have special plans for her, and she's an absolute asset, and she's better to be my woman than an enemy. You'll understand once the time comes." Cyrus calmly explained.
"Humph, you're full of bad schemes. Tricking those girls." Eve retorted with a snort, but she didn't oppose Cyrus anymore.
Now that Cyrus has this dimension, Eve knows he is going to have more than just those two women, so it is unnecessary to waste her mental energy further. She was only aggravated because of the Dao companion status, and now that she knew he wouldn't be giving away such status right and left, she was a little bit content.
"Those schemes are for both of us. As for tricking girls, I'm giving them life-changing opportunities, and grasping them is entirely on their own. You be a good girl and help your husband out, alright?" Cyrus gently stated with a hint of teasing.
"Silver tongue, rogue!" Eve retorted tenderly.
Cyrus knew Eve was pacified, so he no longer had any worry in his heart, and the minute came to an end.
In the end, every human present in the Origin Lust Sword Dimension said 'yes' except for some toddlers who couldn't speak, but he ignored them since their parent's agreement meant those children were now also the natives of the Origin Lust Sword Dimension now.
As for Goblins, he never cared about them since they were bound to be his slaves, period, whether they agreed or not. Still, he noticed over half of those goblins submitted to him willingly and proclaimed him their God. Only those nitwitted idiots didn't accept, and they challenged his authority.
Cyrus would remember those guys and make sure they would suffer for this foolishness, while he would go easy on those who submit.
As for the magic beasts present in the jungle, they were simply livestock in his eyes. Their species' bloodlines were too low even to consider them intelligent, so their status won't change.
"I'm pleased to see the humans didn't belittle their status as one of the supreme races of the universe. Since you all put your faith in me, I naturally won't disappoint you all.
"As a reward for choosing the path toward Heaven, I'll bestow a Godly power system to all my loyal subjects. I can assure you that the crude magic system you all practice in is incomplete and only half-baked.
"But what I will introduce you to is the true supreme path of godhood, the Qi Cultivation System, which will show you just how crude your magic cultivation method is, and whoever introduces you to it has no intention of letting you thrive but to destroy your potential."
Cyrus's words literally blow off bombs in every human mind as they stare at Cyrus in disbelief and befuddlement.
"I know my words will seem empty, or some of you even think I'm trying to boost and lead you to the wrong path. I have walked in your world and learned about your world magic system, and after knowing the full extent of your world's might, only then did I decide to open my dimension.
"Do you know why I did it? Simple, because I don't fear your world at all, and I can guarantee you, even if your world's top combatants entered this place, I can turn them into ashes with my superior Qi cultivation."
His eyes went ruthlessly cold, "But unlike me, the other dimensions with the temple clearly have some other plans for our human race. They are corroding human bloodlines with inferior species to shackle them in the pretext of lies that a pure human can't cultivate above the epic rank.
"Well, I can assure you I'm a pure human, and you should all be proud to be human. Because we are one of the supreme races in the universe, and our bloodline is no inferior to any of those temple dimensions, and I'll prove it right now…"
Cyrus's lips curled up as he uttered coldly, "Ants from Oath Keeper Clans do you think you can hide from this Ruler?"
