1077 We can trust her.
"This time, I doubt even the Order would make a move."
Amaya spoke with a grave look on her face.
"That is correct, even becoming a Great Sage from a Sage normally would take around 200-300 years, it is already suspicious enough that we became Great Sages from an Emperor within a matter of months, now if we return as Complete Great Sages, I am sure this would make things complicated.
The Order might have ignored us since we were just Incomplete Cultivators, however, in the case of Complete Cultivators, even the Order is not guaranteed to remain silent.
We need at least 50 years to make it even slightly believable and be in a safe zone.
Honestly, even 50 years is stretching it too far!"
Astaria nodded, agreeing with Amaya.
"So we need to stay out of the public eyes for more than 50 years...?" Evane questioned in concern.
"Not 50 years, the only place we can stay out of public and the order's eyes is this, the Core. Considering the Time Difference between Yrniel and Core, we need to remain here for not 50 but 500 years." Melia spoke up,pointing out the issue that others were overlooking.
"500 years..." Felberta's expression changed.
"This is too impractical." She commented.
"I know, but...
Do we have any other way out?"
Melia questioned.
"..."
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe entire room along with Felberta turned silent. They had no solution. Melia lowered her head as well.
Nux's ability could not be revealed. Heck, even the Bloodheart Family, who knew many of Nux's secrets didn't know about it.
The same goes for the Lust Family, they could be considered to be the closest to Nux and his family, but even they were clueless.
Nux and his wives were the only ones who knew about Nux's absurd ability and they wanted to keep it the same way, preferably forever.
"500 years is too much, we cannot stay inside Core for 500 whole years, we cannot even cultivate here, neither can we train a particular skill, it will simply be a waste of 500 years. We need to think about an alternative." Felberta spoke up.
"What do you think we are trying to do?" Melia questioned.
"There is a way."
Everyone turned towards Amaya and with a solemn look on her face, she said a name,
"Lady Vyriana."
Nux and his wives narrowed their eyes, especially Astaria.
"She is the only one we know with the strength and authority to do something in this situation."
"You know that is dangerous, don't you?" Allura questioned as she looked into Amaya's eyes.
"Lady Vyriana represents the Order itself,
If we go to her, there is no guarantee that she won't capture us in that moment, going to her might be no different than just delivering our heads to her.
Staying in the Core for 500 years is a much safer option.
We wouldn't be able to cultivate or work on a Skill, that is correct, but would it really matter?
We would be spending the next 500 years together.
So what if we couldn't make any progress?
In Yrniel, these 500 years would only amount to 50 years, and for us cultivators, 50 years is not a big number. I don't think losing these 500 years would be as big of a problem as we are making it out to be."
Allura spoke up and the moment they heard the words 'next 500 years together', the wives' expression changed.
They were so busy focusing on the problem that they completely missed this detail.
Allura was right, spending 500 years in this beautiful place together with Nux was not a bad option at all.
Rather...
"Don't forget, staying in Core affects our Bone Age. So even if only 50 years are gone in Yrniel, for us, it would still be 500 years, being stuck in the same stage for 500 years, that would harm our potential."
Astaria pointed out.
"Would that even matter?
Don't we have the ultimate cheat with us?"
Aisha spoke with a playful look on her face.
The 500-year plan, she liked it a lot.
But then, Nux shook his head as well,
"The Core would be able to take on the energy exchanged from dual cultivation for a long period of time."
"Wait... so it would be 500 years without...sex...?"
Allura's expression changed.
"Let us go meet Lady Vyriana."
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmEdda's made a decision as she stood up. She wasn't having any of it. Her body experienced this torture for years, she wasn't planning on repeating the same for 5 centuries!
She would rather get captured and die!
The other wives were the same, 500 years of no sex was a big no no.
"But can we trust Lady Vyriana?" Thyra questioned.
Everyone turned towards the Catkin, her concern was genuine. The Catkin glanced at Astaria, wanting her opinion on the matter, but then,
"We can."
Rather than Astaria, Nux was the one who answered.
He had been thinking about this for a while and was considering all the options he had. He even considered spending 500 years in Core. Even though this option wasn't exactly optimal, he wasn't willing to compromise on his wives' safety in any scenario.
Nothing was more important than his wives' safety.
Therefore, Nux had already decided to stay in Core for the next 500 years, they couldn't have sex, however, this didn't mean they couldn't to other things.
It would be like spending a long vacation with his wives. A vacation with a few constraints.
But then,
Nux remembered meeting Vyriana a few months ago when she came and told him about Laws and warned him not to use the Power of Laws in future battles.
According to her, he used the Power of Laws, which he shouldn't be able to use, and this was something big enough for Order to act on and seek him.
Vyriana, however, hid this fact from the Order.
She was helping them.
"Lady Vyriana is on our side.
We can trust her."
