Chapter 307: It Was After You That I Slept With Xiaolu
Aisha's hand trembled slightly.
The dim light from underground illuminated her pale face, making her a little hesitant to look at Chloe's face.
Chloe grasped the hand in which the girl held a knife, pressing her fingertip precisely on her palm.
"Do you need me to help you recall the words written on the marriage contract?"
Chloe blinked, and Aisha suddenly felt a bit flustered.
No one knew better than her what the "marriage contract" between the two truly entailed.
In that long dream, Chloe and Aisha made a suggestion to form a contractual marriage as a price to wake up her brother.
So the marriage contract listed the precautions for both parties after their marriage.
Cough, cough.
Of course, none of those precautions were normally followed once they actually got married.
If they hadn't used a few little tricks, the child between them would not have been just Cedric, but...
"Why, why did it take you so long to tell me!"
After the excitement, Aisha began to brood.
It wasn't her first time testing Chloe, but this mischievous senior always pretended not to know.
Or more accurately, he dealt with it with vague words.
So Aisha had never been able to judge whether he also possessed those memories.
But the girl was not one to be blinded by love.
She knew very well what kind of character her husband had.
He was someone who could manipulate the Evil God's Followers within his palms, becoming their leader, and then sell them off—a black-hearted guy.
With his personality, his previous efforts to reject their relationship indicated that once the relationship was exposed, it would likely drag her into danger.
"So, are you willing to admit it now because the danger has been eliminated?"
As soon as Aisha spoke, Chloe couldn't help but sigh.
It's no wonder she's been by his side for so long, she immediately guessed many issues.
Although it seemed slightly off track.
"No, that's not right."
Aisha frowned and continued,
"Recently, the speed at which you handle things has been getting faster and faster, as if there's something dangerous always chasing you.
So, your current intention to stop hiding isn't because it's safe, but because continuing to hide won't prevent danger from occurring.
Am I guessing right?"
Chloe couldn't help but clap his hands.
Wonderful.
Such precise judgment.
Seeing her lover still had the mind to clap and make a fuss, Aisha pouted reluctantly:
"So you're not planning on abandoning me?"
"I never abandoned you. Otherwise, why would I specifically find an excuse to save your big brother?"
Hearing the term "big brother," Aisha's face reddened a few shades:
"W-who are you calling big brother?"
"Whoever's my wife's brother, I call him big brother."
"Hmph, after hiding it from me for so long, do you still expect me to agree to this relationship?"
"Sorry, sorry, it's just that the situation was tense before, and I really didn't want to drag you into it."
Others aren't the same.
Sister Fufu, Nini, Rephya, and Lilith were inherently core participants in the future battle.
They couldn't escape, simply couldn't at all.
In this situation, revealing the relationship was acceptable, after all, they couldn't avoid it anyway.
Chloe assessed this as "having too many messes, adding a bit more doesn't matter".
But dragging people who shouldn't originally be involved in the mess into it is troublesome.
Originally, Chloe thought he just got tangled up with the Bottomless Abyss unintentionally, so as long as he kept his distance from Aisha, the little girl wouldn't be in trouble.
But later on, he discovered that even the Seven Heroes were being targeted by the Abyss, shaking his resolve.
Yet, back then, he still held onto a bit of a false hope.
Thinking "maybe with less contact, Aisha might still avoid the risk".
But later, he realized there was no escaping.
No single world group was willing to bear the risk of having part of their world destroyed along with their core combat power by the Filthy Sun Demon Monarch.
Unlike the Fear Demon God.
At the peak of the Fear Demon God's power, it was roughly equivalent to the power of less than two True God Uniqueness.
Kai alone was stronger than the Fear Demon God back then.
But he was different.
Pride, the Titan Race, and the Darkness along with half of the Storm.
The terror of releasing the full power of three and a half True God Uniqueness stunned all worlds.
You should know.
Although the World Group can produce True God Uniqueness, the nature of the "world" itself actually prevents them from utilizing the power of True God Uniqueness fully.
Instead, they pass down the foundational elements that form the world to those below, allowing them to maximize their output.
Thus, in truth, Pride + Holy Bone, as Chloe transformed into the King of Pride, and Fury + Dragon, as Kai transformed into the King of Fury, both demonstrated to the World Group for the first time what double Uniqueness looks like.
This had already made everyone wary.
But who could have guessed that it would directly soar to a three-and-a-half-level Filthy Sun Demon Monarch?
Moreover, the reason why the Storm Uniqueness is half is that the Demon Hall sensed something was wrong and fled with half of the uniqueness.
Not to mention, the Filthy Sun Demon Monarch could potentially go even further.
At least Chloe knew one thing: if things truly reached an irreversible point... he could consider retrieving the Holy Bone from Xiaolu.
At that time, he knew who would be howling, but he wouldn't say it.
Perhaps it was because of the overwhelming threat, that even some World Groups that originally opposed each other began forming alliances.
Fear of death.
Never mind the Abyss and the Demon Hall, who had already made trouble for themselves.
Even allies of The Stars... could they really sleep peacefully knowing someone held a truck card that could blow them up anytime?
Considering it from an ally's perspective, it wasn't polite to criticize openly.
But secretly watching other World Groups make a fuss and not letting themselves regain their strength, these guys would surely be clapping in approval.
"In short, the situation right now is a bit awkward."
"Awkward?" Aisha hesitated, "More awkward than the time with the Bottomless Abyss?"
"The Abyss is nothing!"
Chloe spoke harshly.
If it was only the Abyss, there wouldn't be such trouble; sending Kai as the vanguard would be enough to make them suffer.
This time, even Aisha was shocked.
In Aisha's eyes, the Bottomless Abyss is one of the greatest horrors in the world.
Even deities, when mentioning the Abyssal Demon God and the Demon Monarch, are full of apprehension.
But now her lover claimed that the abyss was merely a small problem.
"So now..."
"Hmm, even if I deliberately avoided you, you still can't escape danger. Not for any reason, at least the abyss knows the relationship between you and me, just that alone, we can't run away."
Chloe was also feeling amused and helpless.
Who could have imagined the situation would turn out like this.
Strictly speaking, the one he owed the most was not Aisha.
After all, when he was with Aisha, he didn't know the seriousness of the issue.
To be precise, the biggest trouble should be with Senior Miseria.
After all, on Senior Miseria's side...
Seeing Chloe with a troubled expression, Aisha hesitantly asked:
"Has it reached the point where thinking about it becomes troubling?"
"Strictly speaking, it's more troublesome than you think."
Aisha suspiciously glanced at Chloe, suddenly realizing something, and whispered:
"How many have you found now?"
"Cough cough~"
Chloe couldn't help but cough, this question was difficult to answer.
He couldn't possibly tell Aisha, it's far more than you imagine.
Aisha pouted and said, "I knew it, there are always women around a scumbag like you. Tell me, who are they? First of all, it must be Sister Fufu, right?"
"Cough cough, yes, I've known her for a long time."
"How long?"
"I can't say the specifics, but we met 13,000 years ago."
Aisha's mouth gaped slightly.
Darn.
Longer than me!
"Who else?"
Aisha was getting envious, not everyone could be that excessive, right?
Chloe thought for a moment and replied:
"Nini."
"Master Nini?"
Aisha was genuinely shocked.
Although the Treasure Elf often stuck close to Chloe in the past, in her eyes it seemed more like "a younger sister acting spoiled with her older brother."
Even though, in reality, Master Nini was older than Chloe.
"Master Nini has indeed known me for a longer time..."
Ugh ugh ugh.
This really can't be compared.
Nini has been taking care of Senior Chloe for many years.
Chloe cautiously glanced at Aisha to ensure her emotions were stable, and then supplemented:
"Strictly speaking, she also met me 13,000 years ago."
It's just that back then Fufu and Nini hadn't yet split, and he and Stuart during the Elf Empress period were still purely comrades.
Aisha wanted to admit defeat.
Seriously, sisters, why do you all live longer than each other?
"Are, are there more?"
"Abigail."
"Abigail?!" Aisha's tachi even fell out of her hands.
She gestured vehemently: "She, she looks just like a tiny bit..."
Can even such a small Abigail fit in?
"Was it also 13,000 years ago when you met her?"
"...Yes, strictly speaking, I knew Abigail the earliest."
"...Why didn't you take me along?"
"Couldn't bring you, Abigail is actually a deity."
"A deity?"
"I won't say who, better for you to pay less attention."
"Ugh ugh ugh."
"Don't cry."
"First, tell me one thing..."
"Hmm?"
"Did you pluck Rephya?"
"..."
"In my dreams, I often dream of you pressing down on Xiaolu, you didn't..."
"Cough cough."
Aisha angrily kicked Chloe.
Chloe endured it without resistance.
Being a scumbag, this is a small price to pay.
Aisha hesitated for a long time, finally uttering with resentment:
"Was Rephya before or after me?"
Chloe's eyes lit up.
This question he could answer.
"It was after you that I got involved with Xiaolu."
Although strictly speaking, Aisha was in the simulation, but in terms of sequence, Aisha came first.
Upon hearing this, Aisha finally let out a sigh of relief.
"...But I met Xiaolu 13,000 years ago."
The relief rose again in her chest.
No!
Xiaolu, why are you too...!
I want to grab you all for not including me and stir-fry you!
