Now that the pairs were formed it, there was no need for any more words unexpectedly the first one to move was Lyre, she stole a nce at Sarina and flew away followed by her.


    Aster smiled seeing Lyre immediately distancing from him as most as possible, it was obvious that she was more worried about his attacks than the fact that she was about to fight with Sarina.


    He decided to mock Robert one more time before starting.


    "For a moment I thought there was a good chance for this to be a tag team battle, but it seems that your "queen" doesn''t want to be near while I kick your ass".


    Robert gritted his teeth.


    "Once that sword breaks you are dead kid!!!".


    *ng!!!*


    They both disappeared from their positions and the sound of metal colliding echoed through the sky, sparks flew away when Aster''s sword shed against Robert''s sword.


    And so, the sh exchange between them started, about 300 meters away from them Lyre finally stopped moving, she waited for Sarina to be in front of her before her expression turned serious.


    Unlike the old man in the ck robe, the mist that her body started leaking out had a dark purple color, all the space around 50 meters of her was quickly covered by her purple mist which made her smile.


    "You are the daughter or the Luonto''s sword so I guess you know what this purple mist means", she said.


    Sarina nodded.


    "It means you are a whore, but to be honest I knew that even before you started using the characteristic purple mist generated by the "Lust poison cloud" cultivation manual used by most of the female members from the Riga royal family".


    Lyre licked her lips.


    "Hoh? and did you also know that by receiving the "nourishment fluid" from men, I be stronger, you are going to die because I made your husband cum in me a lot of times, even when you were bedridden the only think he cared about this whole time was my body".


    Sarina shook her head.


    "First, he was never my husband to begin with and second if you want him then be my guest, you made it sound as if he is a great match but the only good thing about Robert was that he is such a quick shooter that I didn''t have be close to him for more than 5 minutes the only time I had to let him touch me".


    Although they weren''t shing swords unlike the other battle developing near them, sparks also seemed to appear between them.


    Sarina smiled seeing Lyre''s disgusted expression, "seems like I rubbed salt in the wound hahaha".


    If there is one thing one can be sure in this world, then that must be the fact that angry women are scary.


    Suddenly the area covered by Lyre''s purple mist doubled, enveloping Sarina in its mesmerizingly deadly color.


    Lyre triumphantlyughed.


    "Come out, I know you didn''t die due to that, let mee see your disgusting bitch''s face melting due to the poison I created by banging your man!!!".


    After a couple of seconds wind gathered from every direction forming a small tornado that dispersed the purple mist into the sky.


    Lyre''s smile immediately died; her legs started shivering when she saw Sarina not onlying out of her surprise attackpletely unscathed but her cultivation changed… she was now in the middle stage of the star tribtion realm!!!


    Lyre simply couldn''t ept what was happening, she almost went crazy.


    "Impossible, how are you not affected by my poison!!! it was borated with star vertex ranked "materials" and how did you augment your realm once again".


    An empty bottle could be seen in her left hand while she had a rxed smile in her face.


    "I don''t understand why all the fuss, I used to be a peak star vertex cultivator after all, so returning to the middle stage is only natural, besides I fought against corruption for so many years, do you really think yourme poison will be able to hurt me?".


    Of course, she was only half telling the truth, although Lyre''s poison didn''t affect her physically immediately, her vision did blur a bit, the eyes are one of the weakest points a human as after all, but she chose to trust Aster''s affirmation that his elixir worked as an antidote for any poison, previously he handed her another bottle of that golden-red liquid just in case, since she told him how the royal family and high echelons of the Riga fight.


    And it seemed to be true, when she drank the "elixir", not only any poison that might have invaded her body immediately disappeared but she also recovered another portion of her original power, now that she was at the middle stage of the star vertex realm Lyre''s poison created with the "fluids" she got from Robert an early-stage star vertex cultivator didn''t affect her at all.


    Sarinaughed; she took out a light green sword from her spatial ring and dashed towards Lyre while thinking.


    "It hasn''t even been 15 minutes since we started fighting and you lost to me twice already, in strength and also on regards the partner you chose, hahaha".


    Lyre''s pipe extended and became a staff, she was somehow able to stop Sarina''s sword but her hands were trembling and slowly giving away, she distanced herself and threw a pile of ck dust which turned into a viscous substance directly guided at Sarina''s face.


    But before it reached her, not only the thing lit up in dark mes, but some of the ck substance st on the right side of Lyre''s face making her suffer the same fate, not even a secondter a horrifying scream made all the people that were running away for their lives to pay attention to the fight in the sky again.


    "Ahhhhhh!!!! My face, my beautiful face!!!"


    Lyre tried to put out the mes, but they didn''t disappear until the ck substance evaporated after a couple of seconds, she covered her face with her hands, her previously long ck hair was gone, but the most impactful change was that the whole right side of her face was ruined.


    The burns were horrible, in some parts even her bones were visible and that was not all, the ck substance seemed to stuck to her face making the wounds look even more grotesque, Sarina saw it and she snorted.


    "What goes aroundes around, I don''t know how the hell did you manage to get that ck dust, but that was clearly some kind of corruption so now let''s see how you enjoy being infected by it humph".


    "Still, it seems Robert was right on one thing, you two are really fit to each other", she added seeing her trying to apply medicine and ointments all over her face.


    Although she was convinced by the result, Sarina was still confused about what happened, "where did those ck mes came from, I remember Aster''s me is blue so it wasn''t him", she thought but the answer came to her a couple of secondster when she heard Alice''s voice.


    "Unfortunately, I can''t fly yet, but I have a message from Kana and me for that bitch… "fuck you".


    Sarina had a weird smile on her face, she saw her daughter standing next to Alice nodding continuously.


    "Please don''t teach bad words to my daughter", she thought.


    Everyone''s attention was suddenly draw by a bright golden sh that illuminated the sky a couple of seconds, Sarina''s expression became a bit worried, she saw Aster''s sword breaking and falling from his hand to the ground while it disintegrated.


    *Haa…haa…haa*


    Robert was gasping, his head was covered in cold sweat, he was in a miserable state, there were a lot of sword wounds all over his body but none of them was lethal, he had a cocky smile on his face, since he was able to avoid all the attacks that were simr to the one that cut off his left arm previously.


    His face was full of hatred, so much that his expression twisted.


    "Now that you don''t have that sword you are dead, in your next life don''t meddle in other people business!!!".


    Seeing Robert dashing towards him Aster smiled, a perfect copy of the sword that disintegrated before, appeared in his hand but this time when his sword shed against Robert''s one there was no sound of metal colliding, instead Robert''s sword was cleanly cut at the point where it entered in contact with Aster''s one.


    Robert''s bloodshot eyes widened; it took him a moment to process what happened before he screamed.


    "What trick is this!!! I saw that god damned sword breaking before how is it possible that you are using it again", his voice trembled a bit when he was speaking.


    Aster smiled.


    "Now that is the expression I wanted to see in your face, I told you before "I will make you suffer to the point where you will wish to have not been bo don''t tell me you thought you were able to avoid my attacks due to your shitty half-baked swordsmanship skills?".


    Robert felt his world copsing, it took him so much effort to resist, he even let himself be cut to avoid some of the golden light attacks while they were fighting, and all of that turned out to be useless, the kid in front of him had another one of those monstrous swords.


    Aster saw the desperate expression in Robert''s face and he extended his left hand which was free.


    "Now for the final touch", he said before another sword that looked exactly like the one, he was using appeared in his left hand.
