Chapter 750 Melia Bloodheart

"He did? So what do you think? Do you feel that he overexaggerating?"

"I think he was selling you short."

Nux replied with a playful smile on his face.

"Selling me short, huh."

Melia muttered, focusing on the word, 'selling'.

Nux knew he made a mistake, however, he knew the best he could do was to ignore that for now.

AD

"I still do not know your name, Human."

Melia spoke.

"I am Nux Leander, and these are my wives, Felberta, Skyla, Lane, Edda, Thyra, Amaya, Evane, and Ember,"

Nux introduced, his wives bowed a little whenever their name was spoken, and Melia nodded to each one of them.

"So, Nux. I have heard you are quite special."

"I will take that as I compliment."

Nux smiled.

AD

"You should.

There are not many Emperor Stage Cultivators in this world who can kill 8 Star Beasts easily."

Melia spoke.

"How did you know?"

Nux questioned with a surprised look on his face.

"Oh C'mon, let's not play these games, shall we? You know I have been keeping an eye on you for the past 3 months."

Nux didn't say anything and just waited.

"Not just you alone, your wives as well.

They may look 'normal' when you look at them from afar, however, if you look closely, they are not as simple either,

Their teamwork, it is simply impeccable, and if they work together, even 8 Star Beasts fail to kill them. That is not something any normal Emperor Stage Cultivators can do.

One does not need to be an expert to see it,

The 9 of you are special."

AD

Lady Melia spoke, her tone was still as calm as before, however, there was a strange power in her voice.

Melia Bloodheart was a beautiful woman.

Nux wasn't lying when he said that she was on an entirely different level compared to other Vampires, she had long, raven hair, hypnotic blood-red eyes, and just like any other vampire, she had 2 sharp fangs, pale skin, and slightly longer ears, however, the charm she carried made her different from others.

A stoic face with a small nose, thin eyebrows, beautiful red eyes, and soft, delicious-looking pink lips, her pale skin was enhanced by the lovely black dress she wore, the way she carried a glass of wine in her hand which creates a confident air around her, and her perfect hourglass body,

She was definitely different from others.

She was… beautiful.

Especially when her eyes were shining with hidden but unhidden expectations.

*Picture here*

"Nux, I am different from other nobles, I do not like mind games, in truth, I actually abhor them, I do not like hiding our intentions and manipulating or threatening others into doing what I want, therefore, I will ask what I want from you directly, without hiding anything.

As I said before, all of you are special, I recognize and value your talent, therefore, I want to recruit you into my Clan."

"Your Clan?"

Nux frowned.

"Yes, I have not yet created this Clan, and obviously, I haven't recruited anyone either. I want you to be the first members of my Clan. There are not many things that I can offer you right now, however, I can promise you one thing.

There will be a day when this Clan will be strong enough to compete with powers like Bloodheart Duke House, and as its first members, the Power you hold will not be something anyone can scoff at.

This will not be just a Clan, it will be a Dream. A Dream that only has one path, the Path to Success. And I want you all to find that path with me, not as my subordinates, but as my teammates.

Also, please do not think that this is just a spoiled brat's wish and will only last till I get bored of it, because let me tell you this here and now,

AD

I crave power.

I want to rule.

I want to have the world inside the palm of my hand.

And for that, I cannot use the Bloodheart House."

Melia took a little pause, then, she glanced at Nux and his wives and continued her story,

"I have an older brother, since he is 400 years older than me, I cannot catch up to him by the time father appoints the next head of the Family,

Therefore, it is already clear that the one who will actually rule this family will be my brother and not me.

However, I cannot accept that.

If I cannot rule, then I'd rather leave.

AD

This clan, is not just a spoiled brat's wish, it is my dream, it is life.

And I am Dead Serious about it.

We will face troubles,

We will face many challenges,

However, as long as you do not cave in,

I guarantee that we will, always, come out on top.

So?

Nux, Felberta, Skyla, Lane, Edda, Thyra, Amaya, Ember, Evane,

Are you willing to join me in this journey of becoming one of the Greatest Clans in this world?"

Melia spoke,

Her eyes shining with endless determination.

Nux and his wives could sense her seriousness, however,

"Why us? You are Melia Bloodheart. I am sure there will be many who will be willing to follow you if you say a word. You yourself are a Peak Great Sage Cultivator, in your eyes, no matter how strong, Emperors like us are still… weak. Then why recruit us?"

Nux questioned.

"I cannot recruit people from my family. A clan is an independent force and cannot be related to a Family that has a political connection to a Kingdom."

AD

"I never said you had to recruit people from your family. You can just use your name to recruit people from outside."

Nux spoke.

"I cannot.

I moment I create a Clan, I will only be a Bloodheart in the name.

The Bloodheart Family will not support me, and I wouldn't want that support either."

Melia answered.

"Then why do you think we will join your clan?"

"You have no reason to.

The Clan is not even registered yet,

We have no resources, no knowledge, nothing,

AD

We will be like a small beast entering a jungle, all alone.

However,

You cannot achieve Greatness by playing it safe.

You can join a strong clan right now, get stronger, and sooner or later, you will achieve something big in your life, however, even if you do achieve that,

You will still be chained.

Chained to a Clan that groomed you,

You will be responsible for paying that clan back.

And you will never achieve Greatness.

If you want that type of life, I will not stop you,

You are free to leave, Cassius will escort you out safely,

AD

However,

If you actually wish to take control over your own life, achieve what only a few in 1000 years achieve,

Then join me,

And enjoy the journey that leads to Greatness."
