But here he was, in a place one would never expect to find him, holding the small hand of a beauty that made it feel as though their hearts could be ripped from their chests at any moment.
Why had Dyon decided to appear out in the open like this? Simple. He was boldly stating to everyone that the Sacharro Clan feared no one.
"I even dare to set foot on Planet Enigmatic after snatching all of their lower tier territory from them. Am I the kind of person you want to provoke?" That was what he was saying without speaking a single word…
Dyon led Amphorae through the city, even openly laughing and joking with his wife.
They stopped and visited many stores, even having a bite to eat at one of Enigmatic City's famous restaurants.
It didn't take long for news of Dyon's sudden and carefree reappearance to spread throughout the martial world. Even the Sapientia had stop putting out news under the guise that they couldn't afford it anymore, numerous other sites had blossomed on the Navigator to replace it. The Sapientia simply didn't understand yet that their presence was no longer needed.

How did Dyon know that Lilith was here? The answer was obvious. He never trusted her. As such, he took the opportunity while he healed her soul all those years ago to place a tracking array on her soul. Though he didn't dare to attempt to enslave her due to possible protections she might have, this much was enough.
Soon, the equally bustling Enigmatic Sect appeared before them.
Enigmatic Sect wasn't built within mountains like Soul Rending Peak, or islands like the Water Mist Sect, or even volcanic rock like the Flaming Lily Sect. Instead, its structure was about as simplistic and cozy as Enigmatic City was. Maybe the only thing that told you that this place had the esteemed title of 7th Ranked Quadrant were its tall walls, but even they were dirtied with mud and endless vines. It seemed the Sect Head was quite a carefree person.
However, as one might expect, Dyon and Amphorae didn't make it very far before their footsteps were interrupted.
All along the road to Enigmatic Sect, they were the subject of numerous stares. But, when they made it to the old, vine ridden gates of the Enigmatic Sect, they were greeted with an entourage of individuals.
There weren't many of them, less than half a dozen. But, they exuded a power and strength beyond what one might expect from a seemingly carefree Sect.
Those planning on entering the Sect suddenly slowed their footsteps… It seemed there might be a good show to watch today.
An older gentleman stepped forward. "I am the Fifth Elder of our Enigmatic Sect, might I ask why True God Sacharro has come to visit us today?"
In truth, the older man wanted to address Amphorae as well, but he simply didn't know her name. Though he guessed her relationship with Dyon wasn't normal, it was best to not say anything at all. After all, according to the martial world, Madeleine was Dyon's first wife, he didn't want to accidentally offend Amphorae by drudging up any hidden dissatisfaction she might have. So, silence was his best option.
Dyon smiled. This old man didn't seem hostile, in fact, this was probably why he was sent instead of another elder. He likely handled their diplomatic affairs usually.
"I haven't come for anything too important, Fifth Elder. I only came to take in some sights with my wife and visit a friend who happens to be a disciple of your Sect. Any animosity we had in the past has already been forgotten by me. I'm not so petty as to continue something that can be concluded."
Those listening felt their lips twitch. Maybe today Dyon would gain a new moniker for his Shamelessness. He took away a large portion of the Enigmatic Sect's revenue on the celestial floors, yet he now wanted to let bygones be bygones as though he was being the bigger person.
If it had been any other Sect, the blow Dyon dealt them would have been devastating. Luckily, the Enigmatic Sect made far more money from tourism, so the loss of their lower tier territory wasn't the end of the world. Also, they had given Malthor the task of claiming new lands, something he had spent that last several months working on. After he was healed of his injuries, of course.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAmphorae smiled lightly, seemingly finding this side of Dyon funny.
"Ah, a friend. If that's the case, then please. My old bones can still escort you. Please don't take offense, no Sect can simply allow dao experts to enter without a bit of fanfare."
Dyon's lip gently curled. It seemed they were intent on monitoring him. Though, he didn't blame them. The power Amphorae had displayed was otherworldly. There was no guarantee the Sect could handle her easily if she were to unleash.
Though, he appreciated the old man's candor. At least he wasn't hiding his intentions.
As the group entered the gates, the mumbling of the crowd intensified. Their topic of choice? The appearance of a second Sacharro wife!
Now they truly felt the rumors might be possible. Was there a chance that Clara was Dyon's wife as well? Or was she simply a member of the Sacharro Clan by birth? The martial world was truly becoming invested in this Sacharro Clan.
"Which friend does True God Sacharro want to see? This old man can lead the way."
"Hm. I'm not sure of her disciple rank, but her name is Lilith. And, she should have a fiancé by the name of Sokzac."
The Fifth Elder was fully prepared to send one of the individuals who had followed him to greet Dyon to find out who Dyon's friend was. But, he was actually shocked to realize that he actually recognized the names Dyon said!
