Chapter 220: Facing Her Past Part 1
The Gamma King had blood gushing from his face and lay in a pile of rubble while his partner was in a position that wasn't much better and Lex had continuously beaten them, then poured the energy water on them to help them recover and stop them from dying.
"I will be back with Angela in a short while. If you leave from here or have any second thoughts, then even if you are able to leave this continent, I will still be able to find you and reach you. Don't you dare try and do anything to her as even the gods won't be able to hold back my wrath this time" stated Lex.
He had released small amount of the rage that he was feeling after dealing them a beat down, but he wasn't even able to use a quarter of his full power and he still didn't feel any remorse for them.
Even if it wasn't because what they had done to Angela, they weren't fit to be rulers as although their country would grow, only the royals and nobility would benefit from it, while most of the other citizens of the country would suffer because of it.
If their change was genuine, Lex didn't mind leaving them as rulers as they were still under the Earth Leader and it wasn't his place to kill them anyway, as that was Angela's decision to make.
Entering his Portable Sub-Dimension, Lex walked over to Angela who had mostly finished consolidating and stabilising her cultivation, but needed a bit more time to finish and use the breakthrough as much as she could to improve her power.
After Lex reached her, he placed his palm on her shoulder and lightly shook her to alert her of his presence.
While cultivating in the Portable Sub-Dimension, Angela felt completely safe with the hundreds of fox beasts around her to protect her and the fact that it was space that only Lex could access.
Becuase of that she would become deeply immersed in her cultivation and completely unaware of her surroundings as she would also be too focused on controlling the effects of her cultivation on the area around her.
"Angela, we will be leaving the continent soon and I know you have come to terms with everything and have cut ties with your parents, but they wish to speak with you before then. If you would like to do so" said Lex gently.
Lex didn't want to startle or shock her while she was cultivating, knowing what kind of repercussions that could have, especially since she was consolidating her cultivation level
It took Angela a moment to stop her cultivation and rapid circulation of her energy, then register what Lex said, but when she did, she was shocked and annoyed.
"What! You think I ever want to see those two again, let alone speak to them. They are lucky that I decided not to kill them out of pity, but Lex, this is too much"
"Well, I already met with them and may have accidentally hit and scared them, but they still genuinely seemed to want to meet you. I think they really want your forgiveness and in the position you are in, you can judge whether or not you want to forgive them. However, speaking to them and making sure to get rid of any doubts in your heart is important for your cultivation" stated Lex.
Angela didn't care in the slightest that Lex had hit and scared them and was still clearly unwilling to speak to them.
"Please Angela, the Earth Leader requested it from me as well. If you don't want to do it for them or yourself, could you do it for me please" urged Lex, who wanted to make sure that the continent was in the best state it could be in before he left.
"Alright then, I will do it for you, but don't expect me to forgive or pity them. You are in no position to call me cold after all the things I have seen you do without any hesitation, so let's just get it over with" said Angela.
Lex chuckled after hearing what she said, knowing that she was right about him being able to kill and torture his enemies without an ounce of guilt, however, he saw the continent as his salvation and Angela's parents were a key part of the continent.
"Angela, you actually came" exclaimed the Gamma King, seeing her and Lex appear out of thin air before them.
They had no idea how Lex was able to disappear and appear like he did and were also unsure how they had gotten so strong and capable, but they were grateful that they were given the chance to speak with their daughter again.
"Oh, you don't understand how sorry we are," said the Gamma Queen as she went to hug Angela with her bloodied body.
"Do not touch me" stated Angela coldly as she launched her sliding backwards with a small burst of her powerful aura.
"I have already disowned you as my parents, even though it is meant to be the other way around and we are not friendly with each other, so please do not touch me. I will kill you if you try to do that again" warned Angela as memories of all the pain and suffering that she had experienced due to her parents began to appear within her mind.
'These experiences are merely stepping stones on the long journey ahead of you Angela and like Lex said, this is a good time to fully come to terms with everything and make sure that there is no doubt in your heart' stated the Jade Empress within Angela's mind as she helped her calm down.
The Gamma Queen stood up and couldn't blame Angela for holding hatred towards them, as she had held hatred towards her mother because of the way that she was treated, but she still hoped that Angela gave them the chance to tell them their side of the story.
