Orson wanted to keep interrogating Mylene but Sylas stopped him from doing so, right there were more urgent matters to attend.
"Aster, you take care of retrieving the physical body of this… woman, we will prepare an army to launch an attack in Riga, Prasil will only be in peace after we have finally erased them from the face of our planet".
To be honest Aster wasn't too interested in fighting the corrupted, he respected Aurelian for what he did, that's why he wanted to teach Mylene a lesson, since she treated him like a peon, on the other hand, this was Sarina and Kana's birthplace so it was better to leave things as good as possible for them to leave with him without any worries.
Aster stood up and all the girls did the same.
"That sounds like a good plan old man, call some of the city lords that are trustable and form an army, I guess you have enough space ships to form a decent group… also there are other allies which came from the outside, they should be arriving at Hawthorn city anytime soon".

According to Mylene words, the people from the sand mountain sect already arrived at Riga, so Ritz should also be entering this planet in a couple of hours at most, Aster took out his communication talisman and send a message to Eric.
"Once the people from the barbarian heart sect arrive, come with them to the capital city, there is a good fight waiting for us later", he then kept his talisman on the spatial ring before talking to Sylas.
"Old man can you lend me a space ship… the one we have is a bit too flashy".
Lilia smiled, she still remembers the surprised expression of her soon when he saw her space ship, "Of course it's flashy, it's not a middle immortal treasure for nothing", she thought.
Sylas nodded, he didn't know that Lilia could basically appear at any place of the planet without too much trouble, he took her previous act of disappearing to kill the high level corrupted as a movement technique.
Now that everyone had their own tasks, the meet was dismissed, Sylas guided them to the royal hangar, it was a big building custodied by a lot of guards, inside of it there were a lot of personal space ships and also a fair amount of big one, among those it was the "Luonto's sword" which Sylas piloted.
Sylas called the staff of his ship and ordered them to take Aster wherever he needed to go, he was going to travel with in the ship as Orson in case something happened anyway.
"Don't take too much time kid, nothing like fighting alongside to form a good relationship between father-in-law and son in law hahaha".
Sarina sighed, although she has yet to tell Sylas about his new relationship with Aster, her father could already tell she was closer with him, which earned him the nickname of "son in law".
"Father… we will talk about that later, go help Orson prepare the army".
"Lass, do you think I'm blind, I can see you are heels over him", he said before walking away.
Aster was amused by the whole situation, unlike Aria's father, Sylas was quite enthusiastic about him "going out" with his daughter.
They all went up the space ship, Mylene gave the staff members the exact location to find the place where her body was hidden, of course she was ordered to.
Everyone but Mylene sat together in the couch at the common area of the ship, Lilia leaned her head against Aster's shoulder, she doubted for a moment but she still asked what was on her mind.
"Darling, why didn't you ask me to take us there, it would have been faster than using the space ship?".
Aster caressed his mother's silky long hair before saying.
"We have to wait for the people of the barbarian heart sect to arrive, so I thought of using the space ship for a little "family trip", besides I have some things I want Mylene to answer".
She might be acting, but Mylene had a gentle obedient expression, as she waited for new "orders" to be given, as a noble lady she never experienced pain before as she most of the time fought through schemes, her family assigned her personal guards to fulfill her desires.
So, one exposition to annihilation made her suffer enough to submit, apparently the kid that defeated her didn't have the hobby of torturing others, so as long as she obeyed and didn't try anything stupid, she thought it will be fine.
"Mylene sit down, when we arrive to our destination, don't forget to deactivate any traps and other things that might cause me problems… you know what will happen if you don't okay?".
Mylene did as Aster told, she hesitated but still she asked.
"Okay… may I ask why do you want me to recover my physical body?".
"Why else, of course you will be servicing my brother in every aspect hahaha".
Mylene's face paled a bit, she already understood that Aster only cared about the girls that he declared where his family, it was a hard blow but right now she was but a mere servant at the complete disposition of someone.
"That's a good idea Alice, I bet she would have done something similar if I were in her position, Aster let this be a present from me to return at least a bit of how much you have helped me".
Aster shook his head, he felt Lilia's looking at him as if she was saying "You already have me, so why would you lay your hands on a bitch like her".
"Ahem, sis I'm not interested in laying with someone that would bite my neck if I lower my guard… and I don't have the need to anyway".
With the exception of Eris and Mylene, all the other girls understood the meaning behind his words, even Kana because her mother already explained a bit, the past night because she wanted them to stay in the same room with Aster and all the girls, which wasn't a goo idea for obvious reasons.
"Whatever, just give her some daily chores, she can clean the house or just stay still to decorate the wall".
Mylene wanted to bite back at Eris, but she was afraid of getting punished by it, "At the very least I won't be humiliated… Eris you bitch I tried to kill you but when did I try to humiliate you ?", she thought.
Leaving that aside Lilia also had a few questions for Mylene.
"Tell us how are the corrupted organized, how strong are the leaders?".
Mylene had a complex expression as she answered.
"I… I don't know, on the surface the strongest would be the current king of Riga, that guy has assimilated the latest version of that disgusting imitation of bloodline… he is burning his lifespan like a torch, but in exchange I calculate he has reached the equal of a genesis manifestation cultivator in physical strength".
Aster frowned his eyebrows which made Mylene tremble a bit.
"I swear that's all I know, as for their army there are at least one million of corrupted beasts, the things that were leading them used to be members of the royal family, that were modified to be able to lead those things".
The room fell in silence, the situation was quite serious, if on the surface the forces of Riga were that big, it was only logic to suppose they had a couple of cards up their sleeves, Aster relaxed after a moment of contemplation.
"It will be fine, mom can deal with their king, and we have two sea of knowledge cultivators to guard the fort besides Ritz who will also help in the fight".
"Two sea of knowledge cultivators?", asked Aria in a confused voice.
"Eris and also Mylene".
Due to the promptness of the situation, Eris only managed to recover to the early stage of the sea of knowledge realm in terms of energy path cultivation, her soul would take more time to heal but as of right now she wasn't defenseless like before.
"Good idea darling, I will be more relaxed if you have at least a sea of knowledge body shield ♥".
Mylene wasn't following the conversation, she knew Eris recovered some of her cultivation, but in her mind the elixirs or pills needed for that were probably something that could only be found in the strongest places of this mortal ream, and she didn't have something like that.
She knew it might end up in being punished but she still had to mention it before it was too late.
"Mmm, even if I return to my body, after all these years I at most will be half step into the mortal transcending realm… I'm sorry".
"Don't forget who was the one that made you suffer a crushing defeat; nothing is impossible for my darling ♥… I'm starting to think that making you a servant for our family is more of a reward than a punishment".
Eris agreed with Lilia, "She will get her body back and Aster will probably give her some of that miracle elixir… whatever making her serve others is enough of a punishment for someone like her", she thought.
