Many even called her a she-demon, so she was naturally far from meeting the requirements of a Heavenly Woman.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To earn that title, one had to be loved by the people.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even the world itself would acknowledge them, granting a special symbol—the word \"Heavenly\"—upon their forehead. It was said to ease their cultivation and grant them additional power.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It seems there hasn’t been a single Heavenly Woman in this era on the Ancient Blood Continent,\" Emma said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It’s extremely difficult...\" Master Stone nodded. \"And Heavenly Women are usually protected by powerful factions. But Young Master, you don’t need to rely on that method.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Is there another way?\" Victor asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No, I mean... perhaps your mother could actually break the seal.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That’s impossible. Even if Lady reaches the peak of power, that seal still carries the strength of one of the most powerful World Monarchs,\" Emma interjected.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She deeply respected Margaret and knew just how powerful she was.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But in this world, the power of a World Monarch could not be reached unless one became a World Monarch.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You know nothing, little girl,\" Master Stone replied with a sneer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"And what is it that I don’t know?\" Emma frowned, displeased at being called a child.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Has anyone ever stopped pursuing the World Monarch realm when success was guaranteed?\" Master Stone asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Emma shook her head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In every era, the greatest geniuses fought with everything they had to become a World Monarch—the strongest realm that existed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was even said that one would become immortal upon reaching that level.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Their power could span the entire world.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only a rare few were so overwhelmingly talented that becoming a World Monarch was practically inevitable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Margaret was one of them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet strangely... she had stopped.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Some stopped because they realized their limits or feared death.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Margaret? She was far stronger than all her rivals.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There was no way she feared anything—her rivals were the ones who feared her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So why had she stopped?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What you know about Lady is only a fraction. You weren’t even born when she terrified all the geniuses of her era, so don’t ever underestimate her,\" Master Stone lectured.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"How could I underestimate Lady...\" Emma muttered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Alright, Emma, let’s go back,\" Victor said, no longer interested in continuing the discussion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He wasn’t in a hurry to obtain the Yin-Yang Mirror anyway.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was only thirteen—physically not ready for such matters.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As a reincarnator from Earth who had already been an adult, he was naturally only interested in mature women—those at least seventeen or older.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon returning to the Russell Clan, Victor was greeted directly by his grandfather, Paul Russell.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The man’s brows were tightly furrowed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Patriarch,\" Emma greeted respectfully.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What exactly did you just do?\" Paul asked, glancing between Emma and Victor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Emma hesitated, unsure how to explain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Victor spoke first.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Just punishing a group of frauds.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"And what makes you think they were frauds?\" Paul asked, surprised by his answer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Out of everything we took, only one item survived Emma’s power. Isn’t that fraud? One in hundreds of thousands—no gamble is that absurd,\" Victor replied.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His words stunned the clan members.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It wasn’t that they hadn’t considered seizing those goods and destroying them to find hidden treasures.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They had assumed it would yield quite a lot.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But to do so, one needed enough power to ignore the Russell Clan’s authority—and not care about reputation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Who would have thought that among all those items, only one was genuine?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Calling it a scam was not unreasonable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How much money had those merchants made from this?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Victor didn’t elaborate further. He simply walked toward his mother’s castle while everyone remained in shock.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Doesn’t he seem different?\" some elders whispered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yeah... it’s like he’s more mature than his age. He wasn’t like this before.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Was he hiding his true nature?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Maybe. And now he’s changed because he has a Heaven-Class talent—even if it was stolen.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"A Heaven-Class talent is enough to justify confidence.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When Victor entered the castle, he saw his mother.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She sat with one leg crossed over the other, her long legs exposed through the slit of her dress.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her sharp gaze fell on him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shua!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The iron box Victor had hidden in his clothes suddenly flew into her hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Victor remained silent—he knew he couldn’t hide anything from her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She examined the box... and for once, a faint smile appeared on her lips.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Click!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A soft sound rang out, and a small gap in the iron box suddenly opened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What?\" Emma was shocked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even knowing Lady might be capable of breaking it, she had expected it to take effort.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even Master Stone would have thought the same—yet it opened so effortlessly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a slight push of her finger, the box fully opened, revealing a black circular mirror, surrounded by dark gold engravings of men and women in intimate poses.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Victor hadn’t expected it to be that size.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even Emma blushed slightly upon seeing it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Victor,\" Margaret said, her voice calm yet piercing, \"answer me honestly.
