Against Heaven's Will

It was followed by a massive earthquake-like roar, shaking the whole arena. Anyone who wasn’t fast enough to react felt pain in their ears, feeling deafened for a few seconds.

"It’s a Dragon!" the Commentator called out in warning.

No one could mistake a Dragon Roar when they heard one.

Swoosh!

A golden flash slipped through the open ceiling of the Arena, filling the air with golden lightning. It dove down and did a spectacular circle above the stands, causing a stunning makeover in the crowd’s hairstyles.

All hair stood tall like statues.

The four screens above the arena tried to display a massive creature but that was a big mistake.

Pa! Pa! Pa! Pa!

Four Thunderbolts shot out, piercing through the screens, which turned them off. After another circle, the Dragon flew to the middle of the Arena and turned into a giant Lightning Ball that slowly got smaller till it took the shape of two humans.

A male and a female. One turned out to be a well-built middle-aged while the lady looked stunning, her golden dress coiling around her curves with grace.

"We apologize for being late to the party," the man spoke as he grasped the lady by the waist, pulling her into his arms. "We had to stop on the way to take care of some business, hehe."

Pa!

The lady smacked him lightly on the chest, immediately blushing.

"Hey, what did I do?" the man asked, pretending to be hurt.

"You bully me," the golden lady pouted cutely and looked away, trying to appear upset. "Don’t talk to me."

"Haha," the man burst out laughing and pulled her back for a deep kiss. She resisted at first only to wrap her arms around his head as if forgetting they were in the middle of the Arena with thousands of people watching.

Another loving duo! How much dog food would the crowd eat that day?! Xuefeng and Nuwa were already enough to feed satisfy them for a week.

"It’s the Sect Master Liu and his wife!" the Commentator introduced but that wasn’t even necessary. Who in the Heaven Realm didn’t know about Sect Master Liu, the most powerful expert?

On the other hand, it was his behavior that intrigued everyone. Who would dare say that Sect Master Liu would act so couple-like with his wife?

The golden lady also grabbed a lot of attention. Not because of her indisputable beauty but rather the mystery around her. It was rare for Sect Master Liu to show himself with his wife in public and if he had in the past, she was mostly in her Golden Dragon form.

It was a special occasion to see them both together, acting all lovey-dovey with each other.

"Sect Master Liu and his wife are definitely a match made in Heaven. They look so good together," the Commentator remarked. "They put all couples to shame. Only Xuefeng and Nuwa could compete with them."

With such comment, Sect Master Liu pulled his lips away and smiled, teasing his wife yet again, "My Golden Queen, how do the lips of a husband made in Heaven taste like?"

"I love them..." Golden Queen replied unconsciously only to blush again at his tricks. "I hate you..."

"I thought you love me?" Sect Master Liu asked as he turned sad. His wife’s expression quickly changed.

"I’m sorry... Of course, I love you..." Golden Queen muttered as she cuddled into his cheek, trying to cheer him up. "Don’t be sad..."

Sect Master Liu looked like he couldn’t pretend anymore and kissed her gently, putting on a loving smile right after.

"You are so precious, how can I not love you?" he asked softly.

"You can’t... You have to love me."

"Cough! Cough! Public announcement! Remember to buy your tickets for tomorrow’s finals! You definitely don’t want to miss it!" the Commentator cleared his throat, almost choking on the sugar they produced, replacing it with an ad.

When the Golden Queen hugged him, Sect Master Liu finally paid attention to everything around him. He gazed down at the Flying Ship and his eyes brightened at the sight of President Wu.

"Oh! President Wu! You are here as well. Long time no see!" Sect Master Liu called out as he teleported next to his old friend. "I was actually planning on visiting you and talk about your grandson-in-law."

That scene baffled everyone. The Space inside the Arena was locked yet Sect Master Liu wasn’t affected at all.

"Long time no see indeed. Miss Golden, it is a pleasure to meet you. I was wondering when you would notice me. It seems like your wife is still your main focus," President Wu pointed out.

"Oh yeah. This is why she doesn’t show up with me often as I make her embarrassed. Sorry about earlier, we got a bit sidetracked as we didn’t see each other for a long time. When I’m with her, she is the only one in my mind," Sect Master Liu admitted.

"I see. You wanted to speak with my grandson-in-law, he is on the Main Stage right now," President Wu informed. "You can see both of your disciples there."

"Yeah, let us take a look," Sect Master Liu nodded only to hear his name called.

"Please welcome Sect Master Liu and our senior experts on Stage with loud applause!" Sir Liu invited.

The four screens finally got repaired after Golden Queen’s damage and they lit up, displaying a truly funny scene. Sect Master Liu appeared right in front of Xuefeng and his wives.

Not minding the appearance, Sect Master Liu looked like an older version of Xuefeng with his wife hugging him close. The only difference was Xuefeng having three wives with him instead of one like his Master.

"Greetings Master," Xuefeng and Tianshi spoke at the same time, cupping their fists in respect. They didn’t bow too deeply though but Sect Master Liu didn’t seem to mind that.

"So you two are the new disciples our daughter chose for me. Interesting," Sect Master Liu said as he gave them a look over and his gaze paused at Xuefeng’s wrist. "And this is the famous Elemental Bracelet I heard so muc—"

Sniff, sniff.

He paused talking as his wife began acting weirdly, sniffing the air instead of hugging him. Her eyes brightened a few sniffs later as she admitted, "I like him."

Sect Master Liu’s eyebrows lifted.

"Really?"
