Lind felt a sense of deja vu.
The last time the pair had truly fought was back in the Floating Isles. She had nearly been consumed by her heart demons then.
Back then, it had been a desperate battle to save his daughter but now, it was a battle ordained by the Heavens to test her.
The restrictions on his movements and powers vanished entirely. It was clear that the Heavens gave him a choice.
He could leave but Fey would then fail her ascension. She would likely survive but her foundation would be ruined.
He had to ascend. The Great Bastard was a threat to them all and he could not wait yet, he was not just anyone.
He was her Father.
"Fey, can you hear me?" He tried to talk to her but she only raised her blades. He frowned at that. It would be laughably easy for him to shatter them. They were nearly destroyed by the Fiend Qi and twisted Dao she had employed.
