ATG: God of Shadows

As soon as Alex said those words, the temperature of the entire room started to drop significantly with each passing second and the source of this sudden phenomenon was our heroine, Xia Qingyue.

Even Xia Hongyi's face had a ridiculous look on it. Xia Qingyue was now looking at Alex with a murderous glint in her eyes.

Alex just sighed at this but he understood that this was the result of his own words and just released a bit of his own aura, countering and overshadowing the murderous intent released by Xia Qingyue.

The temperature of the room returned to what it was before.

Xia Qingyue was surprised to see her energy signature being completely overshadowed by a boy who looked not much older than she was. She never thought that the cultivation of the boy in front of her would surpass hers. 

She had thought that he was just a mortal boy when she entered the room as she did not sense any energy from him. But turns out that he wasn't a mortal at all, but even stronger than herself. The aura of the boy felt like it surpassed that of her master.

Alex on seeing that she might be willing to listen to him now started to speak,

"Listen to me first, I did not intend to say that outright but I couldn't control my mind to be honest after seeing how beautiful you are."

A look of disdain appeared on Qingyue's face but she did not say anything.

As Alex continued, " Yes, I want to arrange a marriage with you and I know that you are already engaged with Xiao Che and I also know that this is only happening because of the life saving debt you owe to his father."

"But I know of some things that you would be willing to give your life for in exchange."

Xia Qingyue and Xia Hongyi both frowned at Alex's words but Alex had a smirk on his face as he spoke his next words.

"The Realm of Gods."

The words were nothing compared to the amount of words he had previously spoken, but it was only these words that actually had an impact on both father and daughter.

Xia Qingyue reacted the fastest as she spoke in a hurried tone,

"What do you know about that place! Do you know where it is!?"

Desperately looking for answers Xia Qingyue stood up from her place as she looked at Alex with a look of anxiety and hope.

Alex, knowing that the game had shifted to his favor felt a bit happy inside and he nodded his head as he spoke,

" Indeed, I know about that place. But more importantly, I know about your mother. I know who she is and where she is right now."

Xia Qingyue's eyes shone with hope. 

Alex continuing what he was saying,

"The Realm of Gods is not actually just a city or something. In the Primordial Era, the Gods dwelled there. That is an incomparably enormous plane, ten thousand times greater than the Profound Sky Continent."

"Afterward, the Gods fell, but the Divine Realm didn't grow empty because of this. It became filled with countless humans, who took over this world that was formerly of the Gods and who searched for and fought over all the things which the Gods left behind… Relics, weapons, spiritual medicines, lineages, profound arts, and more. Afterward, by relying on the divine relics that they found, they erected increasingly large and powerful clans, forces, lands, and even miniature worlds."

"You don't need to be concerned about the God part, I will tell you that later on. Now continuing on, the air in the Realm of the Gods is unbelievably pure and the elemental aura in the air is very strong, even dozen times stronger than Blue Pole Star."

"So, basically it's a place with hundreds of thousands of planets like ours. As you know that the Blue Pole Star I mentioned is the name of our star. People here think that the it's the only thing in existence, just like all the species on planets in the Primal Chaos who could not produce a Divine Realm Experts. They all think THEY'RE the center of the universe....you have no idea"

"Anyways that's too much information for you to know right now. Let's get back at your mother's topic shall we."

"The Realm of Gods is divided into 4 regions, Eastern Divine Region, Western Divine Region. Northern Divine Region and Southern Divine Region."

"Your mother is in the Eastern Divine Region, in the Moon God Realm to be precise."

Alex looked directly in her eyes and then looked at Hongyi as he continued,

"Now, I do not how to say this as it might change your whole prospective of her as a mother and wife. So, do you want me to continue?"

Both Hongyi and Qingyue looked at each other and then looked at Alex and nodded,

"Very well then."

Xia Hongyi spoke this time with a hurry, "Please tell us!"

Alex understood the anxiety the man had, but his heart was gonna be broken soon enough.

"Well, her real name was Yue Wugou. She is from the Moon God Realm. She was from a common family in the Moon God Realm but she has a very rare body constitution that only appears once every 100,000 years."

"Her physique was called Divine Stainless Body. Those who have the Divine Stainless Body can give birth to children with very special constitutions and talent."

"Now comes the hard part. Before coming to Blue Pole Star, she was engaged to the God Emperor of the Moon God Realm. God Emperor is the title given to the strongest beings in the Realm of Gods."

"Before getting married, she wanted to visit her parents, during that time she was attacked by a woman named Qianye Ying'er, killing all of her guards. Your mother somehow escaped and arrived on this planet. The rest you already know."

"And after leaving Blue Pole Star, she went back to the Moon God Realm."

'Hmm, I think this much is enough for them to know for now. I can't tell her about her mom's romantic involvement with Yue Wuya or that Xia Hongyi isn't actually her real father. That would fucking break both of them and will cause trust issues with me. I will let her find that out by herself and just pretend to not know about that later. '
