Monarch of Darkness, Arsene

Chapter 573 - Onwards To Battle

"Mama Two is papa not gonna eat with us?" Arkanos rang, pulling at Lilith's sleave. She pursed her lips and stared at me.

"Nooo," Leaping onto my head like a squirrel, Ty wrapped her tiny legs over my neck and held on for dear life. Almost blacking out by her monstrous strength, I shot Lilith a pleading look to help. "Ty will stay with papa!"

Choking over my daughter's death grip, I tapped Arkanos's leg. "Not so hard." I struggle to say, running divinity around the neck so that it would not snap.

Loosening her death grip, Ty bent over my head and eyed me with her scarlet gold eyes that twirled in wonder. She smiled, placing her lips on my nose, "Ty will kiss papa's boo-boo."

"Aaah! She is so cute!" Some of the onlookers cried. Rising from their tables, they approached.

"Enough of these games! Will you accept my challenge?" Xi Shan adamantly declared, glistening with an azure mist that leaked from his pores.

I narrowed my eyes, feeling the Dao of Water rippling from Xi Shan. It was safe to say this man was at the ninth layer of Dao comprehension by the amount I saw. Nothing major as my lightning was at the same layer, but I did need to raise to the next level.

"Fine," I lightly remarked.

Xi Shen sneered and arched his head high, bearing down at me, with superiority that marked his end. He took to the skies while I followed behind with Ty giggling.

Rocketing through the skies, Xi Shen shot me a deadly stare as we approached a monstrous colosseum, filled with countless seats, all filled with fellow disciples. The cheers of war, the bitter taste of defeat, and blood all filled my nose as I stared heavily at the bloodstained grounds.

Glancing at the battle between two heavenly Gods, I glanced at the Elder, presiding over this match. He was small, almost like a dwarf. His ears were sharp like an elf, and his nose large and bright like an apple. To say he was handsome would be a lie, but there was a bit of charm to his solemn eyes.

Sensing my stare, the Elder shifted his gaze to me. I frowned, noticing the animosity upon his lips, the creased brow, and the envy oozing from his face; It was curious, but I felt Ty's legs tighten around my neck.

"Papa, can Ty eat him?" My lovely daughter Soul Whispered.

"Be a good girl." I softly replied, tracing my gaze over the Elder, whose eyes lingered a little longer than I would like. "He is but a Mid God, nothing too serious. Once Freya arrives, I will have her bring me his soul. Although I do get the feeling like your mother is the cause of this."

Ty giggled, "Papa is loving this!"

I chuckled and descended from the skies. Ty may believe I was joyful, but I was truthfully burning with an inferno of anger. Lilith was mine. They can look that I cannot stop but act against me when it comes to what is mine. All these peasants were asking for death.

I was a new god, one who was only a year old, and Xi Shen looked to be like he was at the late stages of our realm. Not a significant distinction between the people in the same cultivation realm, but by his stance, the way he moved, and the level of awareness he displayed, I would say his battle prowess was far smaller than mine.

Letting Xi Shen make all the arrangements, Lilith approached me, holding what appeared to be a big ass turkey leg, the size of a newborn. "Looks like you are making enemies." She claimed with her cheeks dripping with grease.

"Did mama get me one too?" Ty asked happily, leaping down for my neck as we stood.

"Of course, I got everyone something." She said, shooting Arkanos, a stare whose clothing was all but covered in grease as she chomped down without discretion.

I chuckled and shifted my gaze back to Lilith, " You still have my spear."

"I am holding onto it for a while." She swiftly remarked, lowering the turkey thigh. "I need a way to stop you when you lose control or when Aegis takes control. I am sure you understand."

"A paragon like him is sure to be experienced," I noted, recalling his words of me being one using Shadow Step.

"Next Ups Asura Bloodgrave vs. Xi Shen!" A booming voice roared, summoning me forth.

"The sect said they would give me a weapon, but I will need that spear at some point," I added, taking my leave. Soaring into the skies once more, I landed in the middle of the colosseum, and the audience grew hushed.

"What is it you think you are doing?" The short dwarven Elder coldly remarked, Pointing towards Xi Shen, who was walking through the tunnel leading to the colosseum.

I chuckled, "What does it look like?" I coldly countered, witnessing the silence extend to those who were eating.

"Boy, do you know who I am?" The Elder coldly said.

I smirked and stuck my middle finger up while also sending a message to both of my knights.

"Elder Lu, there is no need to lower yourself to this thing." Xi Shen swiftly chimed in, looking at the outrage brewing like a storm.

"Lower? Please, this little peasant doesn't even have the right to clean my shit!" I coldly voiced, pushing divinity to my throat for all to hear as I spoke normally.

"That's my husband!" Lilith roared with glee! Cheering me on knowing that would only anger these idiots more. "Tell him, darling! tell em all off!"

A frosty breeze blew across the silent colosseum. Elder Lu's expression could not have been uglier, but I would not be Arsene if I did not add more fuel to the fire.

"Don't tell me, you a little man, whose dick is probably small than your pink thinks he can touch my darling? Come now, Lu. You should know your place. Look at me, then you." I fiendishly swore, licking my lips, "Was it love at first sight for you? Did you have a few wet dreams? Well, wake the hell up." I darkly barked, losing my smile, "You are nothing but a no-name elder. Aside from a little cultivation, you are nothing but a wasted sperm. Your father plowed into a dwarven whore. A Half-Blood like you should know its place."

"Oh, Shit! Tell him, Babe!" Lilith shouted out in the background.

Cracking up in laughter, I took a step back, "Now do your job and start the damn match."
