Chapter 1941 Deepened
"What do we mean by this? What did your Armament Sprites mean by secretly sending five Blade Clans to the Tower Quadrants? Maybe if it wasn\'t for the descent of the Ancient Battlefield, we still wouldn\'t know about them.
"And you." The Heavenly Sprite shifted her gaze once more. "What did your Spiritual Sprites mean by snatching the Star Clan that was once under the umbrella of our Heavenly Sprites? Not only did you snatch them away, when you had ripped all the secrets you could from them, you humiliated them, all before sending them off to the Tower Quadrants as well."
Even when it seemed the atmosphere couldn\'t become tenser, the heavy air only grew.
The story of the Star Clan was one Dyon had a marginal understanding of, mostly because he didn\'t care much for it. But, he was aware that they had suffered a terrible humiliation in the past.
The dividing line between Heavenly and Spiritual Sprites wasn\'t as clear cut as the differences between the other Sprites. As a result, sometimes the Spiritual Sprites took advantage of Luna\'s loose requirements of her subordinates to snatch useful Clans for themselves.
Earthen Sprites were known for their oneness with the land. Among their number there were Mineral Sprites like Little Rain who had still yet to awaken from absorbing the fire sprite in the Golden Flame Mystical World.
However, Mineral Sprites like Little Rain were actually quite rare. Among the Earthen Sprites, only Higher Existence Earthen could wield control over any and all minerals like Little Rain. Of course, this was also because the so-called sprites were actually only half sprite while Little Rain was a full sprite.
Simply put, the Earthen Sprites usually had specific minerals, ores and metals they had better control over.
The Oracle Sprites were known for prediction abilities. This didn\'t necessarily mean looking into the future, but they had great calculative minds. They were a race known for being on par and often even more intelligent than the Sapientia.
Some of their greater geniuses could parse the future into probabilities, but there was no certainty in the lines they drew, which was why the Heavenly Sprite dismissed Higher Existence Oracle so blatantly.
The Armament Sprites were the most straight forward. They wielded the greatest military power of the Sprite Alliance, coupled with the fact their weapon affinities usually made them abrasive, and the result was quite an overbearing group of sprites.
Finally, there were the Heavenly and Spiritual Sprites. Their differences were difficult to find.
They were both sprites who wielded various energy affinities, but there was a subtle difference. Heavenly Sprites were more like elementals. They could control fire, wind, water, etc, with ease. However, there were also rarer affinities such as space within them as well. In the past, the Star Clan\'s star power energy was among these.
Spiritual Sprites, however, wielded more vaguely defined energies. For example, demonic will, the Sapientia Clan\'s abacus will, energies that were difficult to place appropriate labels upon.
As the term \'Spiritual\' denotes, usually these energies had less of a direct impact on strength and more of an auxiliary one. But, this still wasn\'t the case 100% of them time.
The short of it was that these vague lines often led to disputes between the two factions as to which Clans were under their jurisdiction and which ones weren\'t.
Star Power was a vague energy that was hard to categorize and had both direct and auxiliary benefits, so it was no wonder this Clan\'s affiliations came under fire.
Still, had the Star Clan simply refused the advances of the Spiritual Sprites, even if they were a hundred times bolder, they wouldn\'t have dared pursue their ridiculous dispute. After all, since there wasn\'t any certain answer, why was there a need for the Star Clan to switch sides?
However, the Star Clan\'s ancestors chose wrongly. Not only did their poor decision result in the downfall of their Clan and their humiliation, it was this very betrayal that exposed the secrets Luna had held tightly to herself for so long.
This bad blood had been brewing for a long time… Whether these matters were finally settled now, or if they would boil over into all out war… only time could tell.
Seeing that her words were only greeted with silence, the Heavenly Sprite\'s sneer deepened.
"Today\'s matters are a warning to you all. This strength the Unblemished One is displaying is nothing but the tip of the iceberg.
"You all believed that you had grasped my Empress\' ultimate secret by finding out that she was a Heaven\'s Child, but you had no idea that it was already too late.
"This here is the strength that a Heaven\'s Child can provide if you have her support. These are the kinds of geniuses you could have raised as well. But, you decided to pit yourselves against her.
"The Unblemished One expects an appropriate response to the wrongs you\'ve committed. You have three days, not one second more.
"I\'m sure you can decide to ignore my words. But, you should probably ask yourselves… If this is the younger generation she\'s raised, what do her true trump cards look like?"
A cold sweat matted the backs of the elders as they suddenly remembered something.
Heaven\'s Children… When they gave birth, the child would be the ultimate potential of what the non-Heaven\'s Child parent could be…
Could it be that those Demon Generals who followed Dyon were all the offspring of the Heaven\'s Children under Luna\'s command?!
The devastating thought sent a shiver through them all.
By the time they learned that Luna was a Heaven\'s Child, it was already too late. It was possible to subdue a Heaven\'s Child when they were still in their infant stages of comprehending their power, but once they had matured, it was near impossible.
The only advantage they had was to use Faith, but Luna actually wielded slightly more Faith than they did individually because she controlled 18 quadrants. And, unless they had the consent of all Alliance members, it was impossible to combine Faith to gang up on a single person, or else an Alliance would be nothing more than a joke.
