Chapter 347 Gentle Tranquility
Iwan had a good night's sleep. In the External Regions, the Military Headquarters of Heaven Domain Dragon Kingdom had signed a truce with the Lion Quarter. The extra-territorial war came to an end.
In the Dragon Kingdom domain, the four King-level super-powerful sects had been destroyed. The Green Mountain Sect and the Heaven Force allied with the Military Headquarters of the Dragon Kingdom. War became the young master of the God of War Sect. The sect was closed once again. He would take over when he reached the True King level.
Real Emperor that used to be only one in a thousand years, emerged one after another in this era. These super geniuses carved out their own paths. It was their time. It had become much easier for them to break through the thresholds and gain enlightenment.
Iwan believed that it would only take a year or even half a year for his four brothers and Black Emperor to reach the True King level. It was especially true for Black Emperor. She was very close to the True King level.
Now that the whole land had been pacified, they would negotiate with the Fierce Sun Sect in ten days. As Iwan saw it, they were not likely to go to war. Probably, they would sign another agreement. Although it was known to all that the so-called agreement could be broken at any moment, it was a kind gesture at least, wasn't it?
The Heaven Domain and the Dragon Kingdom Military Headquarters were developing fast. Time was what they needed the most. By the time when Iwan reached the intermediate stage of the True King level and the Senior Elder reached the summit of the Way Master level, the Supreme Darkness Sect and the Fierce Sun Sect would no longer be a threat at all.
Of course, the two sects knew it just as well as Iwan did. Even so, they didn't dare to wage a war. It was especially true for Greg Hogan, the leader of the Fierce Sun Sect. He feared that Human-Kind level master who was invincible in this age and was supporting Iwan.
Not sure of scoring a victory, they would not start a war easily. Besides, in Gotham City, the Senior Elder's strength was enhanced by the fortune of the Dragon Kingdom. He could compare with a warrior at the Life Realm of the Way Master level. Their enemies were tough.
Although the problem still existed, most of it had been resolved. The rest was not that easy to crack. Iwan thought he needed at least ten days to himself. Everything else could wait.
He relaxed and slept soundly that night. With nothing to worry about, he rested his head on Jayna's lap and fell asleep.
...
Iwan, who liked to bully Jayna, didn't do it this time because he was physically and mentally exhausted. People only knew how powerful the leader of the Heaven Domain was. They had no idea of what he had been through and the price he had paid.
It was getting late. The soft moonlight slanted into the bedroom through the white curtains. In an unblemished nightdress, Jayna held Iwan and let him rest on her lap.
Jayna had planned to make love with Iwan tonight. When she came out of the shower, she found that Iwan had fallen asleep. He was sleeping soundly and snoring.
Instead of waking him up, she considerately helped him take off his shoes and gently held him. She caressed his face and quietly looked at him.
"You fool, how long has it been since you had any sleep? Have a sound sleep, honey. I will be here. Love you," Jayna said with a gentle smile and dropped another kiss on Iwan's face.
She was not wrong. Iwan didn't know why, but he just couldn't fall sleep away from home. When he was at home, however, he felt relaxed. In front of Jayna, he would forget about everything. At this place, he was an ordinary husband rather than the fearsome leader of the Heaven Domain.
He had not thought of it from the beginning
that the woman in a white veil, who had helped him in the battle, was Jayna.
In his mind, Jayna was just a simple woman who needed his protection. There was no way she could fight those powerhouses at the Death Realm of the Way Master level. It was simply not possible.
...
Iwan had a good night's sleep. When he woke up the next morning, he found that Jayna had gone out. He stretched himself, deeply inhaled the fresh air, and felt revitalized. The exhaustion from days of battle was all gone.
He went out, came to the living room, and leaned on the door frame. Jayna was seen coming out of the kitchen with a bowl of soup.
She saw the man and said to him with a gentle smile, "You're up. How was your sleep last night?"
Iwan affectionately looked at her. "Good, why didn't you wake me up?"
With a gentle smile, Jayna came to his side, held onto his arm, led him to the living room, and sat him down. Only then did she reply, "I could see how tired you were. Honey, have some soup. I made it for you."
"Okay." Iwan nodded, looking at the woman and then at the soup on the table. For a moment, he felt like entering another world.
He was dazed for a while and snapped back. He looked up at her and asked, "Where is Emily?"
Jayna replied with a smile, "She went to school. It's behind the house of the Miller family. Don't worry about it, her two grand-grandpas escorted her there. She is treated like a little princess not only in the Miller's house but also in the entire city."
Iwan couldn't help but smile. It made sense. That was his only daughter and the great-granddaughter of Oscar and Evan. Everyone in the Dragon Kingdom Military Headquarters knew her. Emily was treated as the most distinguished guest wherever she went.
Jayna had had breakfast. Iwan bowed his head and started eating. After breakfast, they changed their clothes and went to take a walk. The residence of the Miller family was huge. There was a garden and rockeries. It was quiet today. Earlier in the morning, Oscar had informed everyone not to disturb Iwan. They should let him rest for a couple of days.
The tranquility was long-lost. Jayna was wearing a gray trench coat, a pair of gray stockings, and high heels. Her long, black hair was fluttering in the wind. She was gorgeous. She quietly held Iwan's arm and walked around the yard with him.
"How long will you stay?" Jayna asked.
"Ten days, then I may have to leave. There is some unfinished business," Iwan replied.
Jayna nodded. "Is it hard to handle?"
