Chapter 692 Shocked Jasmine
Chapter 692 Shocked Jasmine
The interesting news that Lith saw was that there were many dimensional rifts and gates that opened in various different places of the world.
From there, foreign creatures ventured inside this world and shocked everyone.
The situation had escalated as many creatures appeared, but once again, it was taken under control by the higher authorities of the world.
Once everything was stable, exploration teams were sent out through those rifts and gates.
Through that, people found out that these rifts were different from the ones already present in the world.
The already present gates would lead to somewhere similar to the current world, meaning, same elemental energies, same method of cultivation, etc.
But, these new gates led to places with completely different surroundings.
The first exploration team that was sent out got suffocated to death in a new surrounding. It was because there was some strange kind of energy other than the original elemental ones.
The second team was poisoned. The third team barely survived, and so on and so forth.
Situation outside was far more dangerous than the people had thought.
Thankfully, one thing people became sure of was that there was no external threat.
If the natives of this world went to some other place and were threatened, the vice versa happened as well.
This was good news for Lith.
More places to explore. More adventure. More dates with wives. More sweet time together.
Smiling, Lith continued to browse through the information provided and check what all things happened in those new places.

Far away from Lith.
A realm suspended between two realms had a towering castle whose top pierced the heavens. Instead of the void of space the skies were painted with hues of crimson, gray, and black.
It was an ethereal yet mortifying grandeur.
Around the tower lay a luxurious settlement with a gigantic black metallic gate being at the front of everything, showing an entry and exit point.
The gates were closed but people could still be seen going in and out of it.
Crossing the gates and moving inside the towering castle, there lay a gothic throne room that appeared so divine yet so evil.
In this throne room sat four men and two women with a sickly pale shade of skin tone. They appeared to have not seen the sun in millions of years.
However, despite their complexion, the aura they let out was anything but sickly or weak.
The prowess these six people possessed was enough to topple the entire star system. These people were none other than…
"Velora, what is the situation?" The man sitting on top of the throne in the throne room asked a woman with silver hair and red eyes.
The two women in the room both had the same hair and eye color while the men had black hair and similar red eyes.
The woman didn't get up from her seat or bow to the guy on the throne. She instead answered calmly, "the signs of a new world have been found, Aurelius."
The man nodded lightly. "What are your findings, Ischen?"
A tall and malnourished man answered, "the people from there seemed to be weak. Some of them entered the highest energy density zones and got killed. Some entered the Fog of Vilheim, and some entered the Mystic Seven Poison World."
Aurelius nodded again and then looked at a man with scar on his eyes, as if someone had slashed them. "Zevik?"
The guy called Zevik turned his face towards Aurelius. "The coordinates are not available."
Aurelius nodded. He then stopped asking questions and slumping back on his throne, said with a calm expression, "it doesn't matter if a new world pops out of nowhere. It doesn't matter if a star explodes. It doesn't matter if there's strong individuals in any given star, for we…"
The man closed his eyes and said softly yet domineeringly,
"…are the Gods of this system."

A month passed.
In just a month, Alexandra had achieved a breakthrough and became a Saint Rank like Lith.
It was all due to the dual cultivation techniques Lith was using from the inheritance of Grand Lust Sovereign.
He cultivated with her as much as he could and had her achieve this breakthrough.
If Lith was awake before, Alexandra should've been a Saint within 50-70 years of age, given how talented she was.
In any case, a little difference didn't matter much and also didn't hinder her growth.
Once Alexandra achieved her breakthrough, she was taken away once again by Arya. Apparently, she was now Alexandra's older sister and really cared for her.
Lith was happy with the development and once his wife's needs were taken care of, he was given another news by his mother.
Since he was a hundred-years-old, a Royal banquet had to be held.
Lith was fine with it and didn't disagree. However, he stated that he wanted to celebrate his 100th birthday together with Ralph and Dennis.
Those boys had hit the hundred mark as well and what better way would be to celebrate than with friends?
Friends would be an understatement. Those two were Lith's closest friends; in today's slang terms, they were his real 'homies'.
Lith had a talk about this with his mother and sister, and at first, they rejected his proposal, but then agreed on it.
The banquet was a compulsion and Lith had to attend it by any means. It wouldn't be cancelled.
But, Lith could also have another party where there were just his friends and family. There, he could celebrate together with Ralph and Dennis.
Lith was fine with this and after negotiations, made his mother and sister agree to having this celebration before the banquet.
The celebrations wouldn't be held anytime soon. They will take place at the end of this year.
Until then, Lith had a lot of time.
Dennis and Ralph's houses would be notified about this and Avelyn and Fiora would be made to wait until the end of the year as well.
By the time all of this was done, it had been a month since the time Lith woke up.
He was only truly free right now and could relax in the castle.
After a week's worth of relaxing, Lith realized it was too boring to just stay in the castle.
He decided it was about time he focused on his own cultivation as well.
He had been dormant for almost eight decades. By now, his soul and body should've properly merged and there shouldn't be a problem to cultivate more.
Lith could start cultivating on his own and rank up, but this was the previous approach.
He now had the best inheritance in the world and had realized that dual cultivation was a much superior approach.
To cultivate, he needed a partner one realm above his own. At present, there was only one Half King he knew of.
It was…

Elven Royal Castle, World Tree.
"LITTLE COUSINNNN!" Alea came running towards Lith and jumped on him.
Lith caught her and instead of hugging her normally, took her lips and kissed her passionately while squeezing her soft cheeks from behind.
Alea obviously reciprocated and liked this.
However, Jasmine, the blue-haired elf, was in shock, looking at the Princess do this.
She couldn't believe what had just happened!
The pure and innocent girl that she knew even before birth was doing such a thing!? How? When? What? Why?
Many questions popped up in her mind as she watched the two kiss.
After arriving in the castle, it was Jasmine who guided Lith to where Alea was.
Alea would never stay in one place and Lith was well aware of it. He thus needed Jasmine's help.
Lith had no idea Jasmine wasn't aware of his relationship with Alea and just went with the flow like he usually did, bringing about a major shock to her.
Jasmine was frozen on her spot and staring at the two with a dumbfounded look.
Lith didn't see her reaction and was busy doing his things with Alea.
Once he was done, he asked Alea how she was and had a small talk with her.
Then, Lith parted ways with Alea, telling her that he would be back to her after exchanging some greetings with her mother.
Alea agreed and asked Lith to come as soon as he could.
Thus, with the stupefied Jasmine, Lith went to where Agalea was.
Agalea wasn't in her office today, she was at the peak of the World Tree, gazing at her kingdom and having tea.
As Lith climbed the stairs of the watch tower at the peak, he saw his beautiful aunt sitting and staring in his direction, completely aware that he was coming.
Lith looked at her and waved. "Hello, aunt."
"What brings you here, nephew Lith?" Agalea put down her cup and asked back with a smile.
Lith chuckled and getting close to her, kissed her lips softly and said, "this beauty sitting right here."
'W-W-W-WHAT IN THE ACTUAL FUCK!?'
Jasmine had climbed the stairs as well and she didn't expect the first thing she would be seeing was Lith kissing the Queen!
Anyone else would've been fine but the… but the QUEEN!?
Words weren't enough to express what she was feeling right now and her expression was anything but neutral like usual.
Agalea, who could feel the tumultuous changes in Jasmine's heart, internally chuckled. She was fully aware that Jasmine didn't know about anything and even though she could stop Lith from kissing her, she didn't.
She wanted to see how Jasmine would react and the reaction was even better than what she had expected!
To tease Jasmine further, Agalea looked Lith in the eyes and raising her breasts up, asked, "are you sure you missed me and not these?"
