God-Tier Providence System-Chapter 88

This meant he couldn’t use psychological warfare against Nyx like he did with Lily.

This crazy woman didn’t even have a rational mind.

What the hell was there to psychologically attack?

Secondly, as the reincarnation of the Soul-Severing Demon-Purging Divine Empress, Nyx carried a deep-seated hatred for demons in her very blood.

Even though she was currently mad, as long as she caught the scent of demonic arts, she would immediately go berserk.

Very unfortunately, his Rakshasa Soul Searching Art and Rakshasa Water and Fire Art both fell under the category of demonic arts add his Rakshasa Saint Body on top of that, and he was basically no different from half a demon lord.

If he showed his face, Nyx would definitely go crazy on the spot. Aside from a life-and-death struggle, there were no other possibilities.

Currently, Alex had no intention of killing Nyx. Leaving aside whether he even had the ability to kill this reincarnated Great Emperor, she wasn’t just a supporting female character.

She was a mid-novel female lead of a higher tier than Aurelia. Completely on par with the early-novel female lead, Isolde.

If he killed her, whether he would suffer a massive backlash from Heavenly Dao and Luck was a serious question.

Taking a step back, even if he truly could kill Nyx, this girl still had a brother who faked his death but was very much alive. According to the timeline, Nyron should have already stepped into the Saint Realm by now.

Alex absolutely did not want to offend a Saint capable of wiping him out. Not at this critical juncture when the Hale family was just beginning to rise.

"What to do, what to do..."

Alex scratched his head, pondering bitterly for a long time. Yet he still couldn’t come up with a countermeasure.

Seeing he had arrived above the holy land, he had no choice but to stop overthinking and ride his auspicious cloud down.

However, the moment he landed, he saw the Four Great Elders all waiting with anxious faces.

first Elder Cedric, third Elder Tobias, fourth Elder Lara, even Second Elder Adrian, who had been monitoring Knox just one hour ago, had been urgently summoned back.

"Why are you all here?" Alex asked with a smile. "Waiting here specifically to welcome me?"

"Saint Lord, something major has happened." Cedric said with a bitter face.

"The Saint Lords of the Branch Families have all arrived one after another."

"They are currently gathered within the Saint Lord’s Hall, claiming they want to inquire about arrangements for this year’s Dao Vindication Assembly."

"The several branch families... all of them came?" Alex was slightly surprised. A deeply amused smile curled at the corners of his mouth.

"I didn’t expect these old boys to be so proactive."

"Saint Lord, in past years, for every Dao Vindication Assembly, these branch families would send letters early claiming illness, and their disciples would play dead!" Lara said indignantly.

"There is still an entire month until this year’s assembly, yet they have impatiently rushed over."

"It is clearly because they saw the Saint Lord being so generous and our Main Family’s disciples making rapid progress. They want to come and carve up some benefits!"

"Saint Lord, Fourth Sister is right." Tobias held his whisk, his expression incomparably stern.

"These major branch families have harbored rebellious intentions for a long time. They merely covet the Main Family’s resources and fear the Saint Lord’s majesty, which is why they feign submission."

"The Saint Lord should take this opportunity to completely awe and intimidate them, ensuring they never dare harbor disloyal thoughts again."

Alex waved his hand and chuckled. "Everyone, you’ve overstated it."

"Whether Main Family or Branch Families, we are all disciples of the Hale family. Why calculate so clearly?"

"Since the branch family Saint Lords have already arrived, I will trouble the four of you to accompany me to meet them and fulfill our duties as hosts."

He casually rode his auspicious cloud toward the Saint Lord’s Hall. The Four Great Elders hastily followed close behind.

Adrian came to Alex’s side and asked weakly. "Saint Lord, my daughter Joanna... why didn’t she return with you?"

"Mm." Alex nodded. "I saw her natural talent was quite good, so I left her outside to gain experience."

"What?!" Adrian instantly became anxious, his eyes widened.

"Saint Lord, I only have that one daughter!"

"Her cultivation is merely Foundation Establishment Realm, dealing with mortals is fine..."

"But if she encounters an expert or vicious beast, how could she survive?!"

"Saint Lord, y-y-you... how could you do this?!"

Seeing Adrian getting more and more anxious, looking like he was about to burst into tears, Alex hurriedly supported him, laughing in bewilderment.

"Adrian, where is your mind wandering?"

"Joanna is exceptionally gifted and possesses outstanding immortal destiny. Not only did she break through to Core Formation, but she also obtained the Innate Poison King Saint Body."

"With her current aptitude, returning to the holy land would actually slow her progress."

"To aid her cultivation, I had her remain in the Void Domain Cave Heaven and gifted her a poison art I personally created."

"The Void Domain Cave Heaven is only two to three hundred miles from our holy land. If you miss her, you can visit anytime."

Adrian was completely stunned, finally processing what was said.

The Saint Lord wasn’t using his daughter as cannon fodder.

He was genuinely bestowing a massive fortuitous encounter upon her. Even grooming her to be a future figurehead of the Hale family.

"Saint Lord, I... I truly don’t know how to thank you properly..." Adrian was so excited he became incoherent. He patted his chest and declared loudly.

"For today’s meeting, I shall act as the Saint Lord’s personal guard!"

"Whichever branch family member wants to harm the Saint Lord will have to step over my dead body first!" 𝒇𝓻𝓮𝓮𝙬𝙚𝒃𝒏𝓸𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝓬𝓸𝒎

Lara suddenly realized something and said in astonishment. "The Void Domain Cave Heaven... isn’t that the cultivation blessed land single-handedly opened up by the Heavenly Flame Empress, Aurelia, back then?"
