Chapter 91 – Returning Back
It was really funny when he thought about it because when he was younger in his first life, he often thought about such things being either pathetic or that the men who paid for such things were foolish.
And yet, ironically, though, even though most were with him for money, he didn't care because at least he obtained companionship of some sort, and he didn't wish to bother with it through a more conventional way.
Someone who was as socially inept as him, he found that the way of money, while not the good one, was still better than the loneliness that was slowly eating him away.

Several days later, the Warship of the Ōtsutsuki Clan was closing the distance and soon enough would be entering back to the territory of the Frigid Origin Realm.
"So the Star God Realm and Moon God Realm finally made their move?"
Yakou asked as he was sitting on his throne in the command deck of the Warship, together with Qianye Ying'er, who was sitting quietly on his lap. After they have done the deed together, she becomes very clingy to him.
Often refusing to separate from his and she was also very affectionate, but at the same time, he enjoyed her affection because it was nice. She was very touchy and was always filling his heart with warmth when she just hugged him without saying a word and wanted to cuddle.
"Yes, and they are progressing well... with the truth about many other schemes of the Brahma Monarch God Realm coming to light, even the few allies they have are now frosty towards them at best."
Just yesterday, came a report to Gu Zhu about the progress of the political situation in the Realm of Gods.
The Star God Realm and Moon God Realm have started their attack on the Brahma Monarch God Realm, and within a few weeks of the invasion, they already conquered several prominent Star Realms.
"And what of other players on the board?"
Yakou asked as she cuddled with him, patting her long golden hair as she hummed something happily.
"Everything is as predicted, the Dragon God Realm is mustering their forces to attack when the time is right, and Eternal Heaven God Realm is attempting to mediate the situation but to no vail. The Southern Divine Region is right now watching everything with keen eyes and the Northern Divine Region is already preparing for the invasion of the Eastern Divine Region en masse."
As she reported that, Qianye Ying'er got a kiss on her forehead because Yakou was immensely satisfied with this progress and was certainly pretty much proud about that...
"So, what do you think? How will this end?"
He asked her when he got a notification that within one hour, they would arrive at the Frigid Origin Realm.
"I think that the most probable outcome would be the defeat of the Brahma Monarch God Realm, and Qianye Fantian will activate the Great Brahma Barrier to seal the entire Brahma Monarch God Realm from the rest of the Realm of Gods to prevent extinction while the Dragon God Realm will attack the Star God Realm and Moon God Realm if they suffer significant losses."
Yakou raised his brow hearing her opinion, but this was actually a welcomed ending because he wanted to have Brahma Monarch God Realm instinct, but out of the equation, yet intact for Qianye Ying'er to use the entire God Realm for the God Tree.
"And the Northern Divine Region?"
The territory of the Northern Divine Region was often called the Devil Region and was the smallest and least powerful of the four Divine Regions of the Realm of Gods. They were in fact, ostracized by the other three Divine Regions.
Besides being ostracized, you could also say that they view the other three Divine Regions with hatred. They will never step onto any territory belonging to the other three and the Eastern, Western and Southern Divine Regions will similarly not tread into the North.
"That's where things got interesting because they were right unified by a powerful cultivator called Devil Queen, who proclaimed herself the Sovereign of the entire Northern Divine Region and even the three Royal-Rank Star Realm, the Soul Stealing Realm, Yama Realm and Bunring Moon Realm has bowed their head before her might."
For Yakou, the "devils" of the Northern Divine Region were the most precious tools as they would be used to greatly weaken the entire Primal Chaos Dimension Origin World so that they could start their offensive just with Saint.
After knowing the situation with the Abyss of Nothingness, Yakou anticipated that the Clan would change the plans and order the start of the offensive sooner.
Right now, according to the prediction, it would take a few centuries for the Dimensional Patwahy between the two Origin Worlds to stabilize enough for the Holy Lords to pass.
But the situation with the Abyss of Nothingness kept him uneasy; thus, he knew that Clan would not pass such a precious opportunity to rob such an energy-rich Origin World and let it be consumed by the Abyss of Nothingness.
"Splendid... everything is coming together; naturally, we will need to report your achievements and get you registered within the Administration Hall of the Ōtsutsuki Clan as clansmen... this would make you a shitton of Merit Points."
Yakou wasn't lying about this one because her acts of destabilization of the entirety of the Primal Chaos DImension Origin World would probably fetch her enough Merit to reed for a complete Chaotic Origin Legacy.
That was something that even he wouldn't achieve because he didn't have such a talent for scheming and plotting against others... he preferred to be more straightforward and believed in might what makes right.
If he perceived someone as a danger, then he would just kill them and be done with it.
So, Qianye Ying'er was certainly welcome to his little camp because while he hated that fact, as the future Clan Head of the Ōtsutsuki Clan, he wouldn't be a really good one in terms of politics.
At least the moment he became Patriarch, he could drop all of those matters on her and turn his attention to different things other than playing politics.
"It seems that we have arrived at our destination."
