"Your honored Majesty, shall I go and greet them?"
Inside the captain's quarters, the Chaos Divine Marquis knelt on one knee at Lilith's boots, utterly deferential.
"Very well. Gather them all under the pretext of a meeting. That will make it easier for me to devour them."
Lilith spoke with cold arrogance.
Then she turned a tender gaze on Luo Yu. "Master, is this arrangement all right?"
Luo Yu nodded approvingly. "Very good. Let's do that."
Gathering them together would make devouring them more efficient and prevent anyone from slipping through the net.
If even one target escaped this purge of the Massacre Star System, their subsequent plan to infiltrate the Star Celestial Clan...
...could very well go up in smoke.
Being cautious was the right choice.
Under Older Sister's influence, Lilith was indeed getting better at seeing the bigger picture.
Her bearing and the judgments she made had the air of an Empress.
It seemed that although Older Sister said she was jealous of Lilith, she had given her plenty of guidance in private.
Soon, just as the Chaos Immortals approached to investigate...
...the Chaos Divine Marquis flew out of the Terminus.
"It's the Divine Marquis!"
"The Divine Marquis has finally returned!"
"Welcome back, Divine Marquis!"
"We hadn't been able to contact you for so long that we thought something had happened."
The many Chaos Immortals immediately felt relieved at the sight of the Chaos Divine Marquis.
The Chaos Divine Marquis improvised, appearing as composed as ever. "There were indeed some unexpected developments that delayed us considerably."
"Notify all the guardian gods of the Massacre Star System to come to the Chaos Ruins Realm for a meeting."
The Immortals replied in unison, "As you command!"
The Chaos Ruins Realm.
Inside the Chaos Divine Marquis's gloomy underground traveling palace.
