Emperor Lawrence

When Serene Will is unable to read the opponent's mind, Sky Petal is most sensitive to the enemy's changes.

"Destroy that butterfly as soon as possible, the longer it takes, the more she will be able to summon more beasts!"

The plants may not be very sociable with her compared to her son, but when there are questions they can answer, the plants are happy to do so! After learning the plants' impression of Eminent Greed, she discovered that time is important, a factor that can decide victory or defeat!

If it weren't for Eminent Greed being a ranker of level 758, they wouldn't hesitate to attack the source of the problems! But they must fight her together, going solo is no different from suicide.

Coldness Divine immediately runs towards the butterfly, leaving Serene Will behind.

The latter looks undecidedly at Sky Petal, "Can you handle the wolf alone?"

"I can! It is weakened enough after concentrating our attacks on it."

At her response, she nods and chases after Coldness Divine.

Howl.

The giant wolf may not be real, but it possesses intelligence. It kept silent during their entire conversation and now attacks after knowing it will fight the green-haired woman, as long as it's her, there's a chance!

"You are just the remnant of a beast, you do not know life."

Sky Petal does not hold back and this time fully manifests her Way. While she begins to consume medicinal pills, the plants emerging from the ground multiply at great speed. She must finish off this wolf as soon as possible!

She deals with the wolf's fire attack without much trouble, she may not have a decisive attack, but she is the only one of Lawrence's women whose Way chose her and not the other way around. Her level 699 is just a number, because the moment she reached this level, she was no different from a level 700 ranker!

When Serene Will arrives in front of the butterfly, Coldness Divine was already fighting against it.

Coldness Divine is a fire magic user, a single movement of her fan can create countless different magics in a blink, from a whirlwind to the expulsion of lava from the ground. Because of this her compatibility with the wolf was the worst, because all the magic that wolf did, are the same that she can do!

"Disappear."

She is completely angry, attacking the butterfly by generating a wall of fire that covers the entire surface under the insect.

But, incredibly enough, her fire changes to water, to the opposite element.

Coldness Divine is surprised for a moment, then clenches her teeth. "Deceiving my eyes is not enough, it's not real."

Then Serene Will arrives and swings her sword. She is a master of the sword, if she couldn't deal with magic and illusions, she would have given up the sword a long time ago. Nine swords suddenly appear near the butterfly, all of them piercing its body cleanly, but the tenth sword is nowhere to be found.

Serene Will has deepened her knowledge in the Void Sword, if it previously had weaknesses, now each sword is no different from her own! But that one sword not obeying her intentions can only mean one thing.

Her target is not real.

The butterfly fades, no different from an illusion.

"What--?"

The tenth sword then appears in an unexpected place, behind them.

Both hold their breath after seeing how this silent butterfly approached them without being perceived by either of them, if not for a sword that damaged one of its wings, they would have discovered it too late!

"Forgotten Memories!"

Behind Coldness Divine, the pages of the illusory book move backward and as soon as they stop moving, the sword over the butterfly reappears once more, multiplying its damage! Serene Will is surprised to witness this, because what she just did is nothing less than rewinding the time of her attack and executing it again, something unheard of.

If the butterfly could emit sounds, it would have moaned in pain. Quickly, it moves its wings and moves away from them, but... would they allow it?

A field of swords manifests under the feet of Serene Will and her sword is surrounded by sand, the illusion behind her becomes a bit more distinct and her Way manifests in what would have previously been an impossibility. She raises her sword and the gentle downward movement generates a sword chaos, each with different attributes and different properties.

The butterfly retreats, generating illusions and playing with the environment. No illusion is harmless, because its attack may not be physical, but it is mental.

The sword chaos merges, blends with the environment generating consequences not only catastrophic, but infinitely beautiful. Within this distortion, Coldness Divine feels inspired, because the Way of time includes chaos.

"In the river of time, at some point everything will collapse."

Her Forgotten Memories Way feels vivid, the book behind her does not stop turning its pages and then... The sword chaos resurges once more, for only a second, but this is enough. If before the Way of Serene Will was equal to the Way of the butterfly, the resurgence of her attack tilted the balance in her favor.

The illusions are destroyed, and the remaining swords attack the real body of the butterfly creating dozens of cuts in its wings and damaging its main body. It escapes hastily and generates multiple illusions of itself, successfully hiding its tracks.

"Cough!"

Coldness Divine coughs up a mouthful of blood. It's fine to play with the time of attacks, but not so with the time of a Way different from hers, such as the Heaven’s Division Way of Serene Will.

'Today I may be hurt, but I witnessed its possibility.'

Yet her eyes burn as she understands one of the most difficult Way in the world, time.

Eminent Greed frowns. 'Two beasts will not be enough.'

Despite her arrogant name, she is a businesswoman who knows when to advance and when to retreat. After witnessing the strength of these three women, she knows it's only a matter of time before the situation becomes unfavorable. This is the time to advance, because even if she wants to retreat, she cannot, not now.

The warning cry of Sky Petal alarms Serene Will and Coldness Divine, both looking towards Eminent Greed.

"Perhaps today we all lose something, but I will lose less."

All try to stop her, but her summonings are strange. Even before existing, an invisible being blocks their attacks and seconds later a golden line emerges one after another, generating the appearance of an imoogi dragon.

As soon as the dragon exists, immediately behind it the illusion of golden clouds appears, but again, it only has its outlines drawn. All the beasts only have golden strokes and without a physical body, the same happens with their Ways.

"Go." Coldness Divine does not take her eyes off the butterfly, "This insect can help me understand my Way, I cannot lose this opportunity."

Before Serene Will could respond, a golden aura surrounds Coldness Divine. Both are surprised, but quickly understand its origin.

Lawrence clicks his tongue, "As long as you don't lose your limbs, I'll take care of your wounds. Do what you have to do."

For a second Serene Will looks him in the eyes and then turns around, running towards the newly summoned beast.

Since the two of them left Sky Petal behind, he has been healing the wounds of that flower girl. Now with the recent injuries of Coldness Divine, Lawrence has to focus on healing two women. He has experience doing it, because that's how he killed the main body of that qilin, the problem is that unlike then, Eminent Greed can focus on him if he presents a threat.

"Eminent Greed, for just a few minutes you ruined everything."

Just by observing the Will of Heaven for a few minutes, Eminent Greed is willing to fight them to the death. Before this day she was just a businesswoman, but now there's no turning back.

He said those words to himself, so there was no response from that woman.

The attacks of Serene Will are nullified when they hit illusory clouds, the imoogi dragon flies among the clouds like a majestic being, it seems not to pay her attention, but that is not the case.

Serene Will feels a gentle breeze on her cheek and the next instant her expression changes. She moves at such a speed that she leaves a residual image in place, which does not last long. In a fraction of a second, an invisible attack destroys her previous position, its power is such that, if received head-on, she could hardly continue fighting.

"There is nothing that cannot be divided. The tangible and intangible, they have an end."

For an instant her sword cut is able to damage the clouds in which the dragon flies, but more than feeling hopeless, she smiles. Because before this moment those clouds seemed an insurmountable obstacle.

The imoogi dragon performs invisible attacks. Its majestic posture never changes, like a dragon flying among clouds without paying attention to mortals, but it is that same flight the cause of its attacks. Because its mere movement has a meaning, which is impossible to anticipate.

Serene Will is performing miracles by being able to dodge its attacks minimizing the damages on her body, her eyes are only focused on the cuts over the clouds. Cuts that are slowly deepening.

Her close battle makes it impossible to predict who will be the winner, because only a mistake can decide the victory, but... She is not the only one fighting.

Howl!

The giant wolf howls to the sky and its body vanishes, not without first summoning a meteorite.

Sky Petal uses her Way and her plants to lessen the damages and its reach, but she knows she will not come out unscathed.

Boom.

The meteorite impacts against her attacks and generates a small-scale tremor. The worst scenarios are avoided, but Sky Petal is sent flying by the shock wave. Not just her, the surrounding battles are forced to pause momentarily in the face of the wolf's suicidal attack.

Lawrence heals Sky Petal's wounds at a great speed. The latter gets up from the ground as if nothing had happened, but the truth is her skin is whiter than usual. If it weren't for her regeneration ability, she could easily have lost a limb in that attack.

"Finish this as soon as possible."

He talks to Sky Petal while looking at Eminent Greed in the distance. "Only 30 minutes more. After that, I'll have to spend my lifespan to heal you."

Unlike the battle against the qilin, in the current battle Lawrence is fully healing the wounds of his women, so the time he can keep it decreases at a great speed.

Sky Petal nods her head, without losing her smile.

"Eminent Greed is hesitating, this may be her last chance. Hang on a little longer Lawrence, because we'll be lucky if it's just a limb that's lost."
