Death… And Me

Chapter 2463 I Still Donʼt Care

Turns out the place they landed after returning to the Realm of Gods was the Spirit Racesʼ Territory. With Kinblei being a Peak Stage Space-Time Realm cultivator, using Spatial Gates made it an easy task to return to the humanoid territory. Even Kanglia and Nolui would be the same even though they are one and two stages below.

Yet, Kinblei didnʼt let every depart straight away. Instead, he stopped everyone as soon as they arrived in the Realm of Gods. In fact, Nolui wouldnʼt have left either. Instead, they looked at Rean, Kentucky, and Essefy before Kinblei began to talk. ”Alright, enough with the bullshit. Tell me, what did you do? And donʼt come at me saying that you exchange your knowledge of formations for our freedom.”

Nolui nodded, although he didnʼt look as threatening as Kinblei. ”He is right, Goku, Kenny, and Essefy. If your knowledge about formations were really that important, they would never have let you leave that place. Tell me the truth. What did you do to convince those Death Spirits to send us back? Not only that, but you even convinced an expert like that last Death Spirit to open a passage to this side of the Universe.

Nolui continued. ”Even the Peak Divinity Realm experts canʼt open a passage in the region where the Universe was split. If they could, we would have sent many expeditions to the other side already. Yet, that Death Spirit, on the other side, did just that. I truly canʼt see why they would let us go.”

Rean sighed as he began to speak. ”Indeed. Knowledge about formations wasnʼt really something they needed from me. However, it is true that that was the first time I had ever been to that place or seen any of those Death Spirits.”

”As expected,” Kinglei was satisfied to hear that. ”So, what exactly could you give them that would convince such an expert to send us back? If it was me, I would take whatever it was from you and then keep you on the other side. If anything, I might have even killed you and everyone else to hide the fact I acquired whatever you gave me. That brings me to a conclusion... you gave nothing to them.”

Nolui, Kanglia, and the others were surprised to hear Kingleiʼs words. If Reanʼs group gave nothing to the Death Spirits, then why would they go through the trouble of sending everyone back to this side of the Universe? Unless... Suddenly, they all had the same idea.

Rean shrugged his shoulders. ”Seems like you understood. Yes, it was the first time I had seen them. It was the first time I had ever been to that place. However, I did know about them, and they did know about me. We do have a connection.”

”What kind of connection?” Kinglei asked straight away, as curious as everyone else.

”That I canʼt answer,” Rean spoke. ”But it has a lot to do with my higher strength compared to others at my level.” That part wasnʼt a lie. It was because Kafan sent Roan with him to this side of the Universe that Rean had Roan to help with everything they achieved so far. Through the System, and no less because of Roanʼs training, his group was now this strong. It was the combination of both Roan and the System that their level got this high. Of course, Rean himself helped a lot, too, but Roan definitely had a bigger hand in this regard.

Such an answer immediately caught everyoneʼs attention. After all, they have all seen Rean, Roan, and Kentuckyʼs power. They were truly far above others at their level. Even Kinblei, who was already considered much stronger than those at his level, wasnʼt as ridiculous as Rean, Roan, and Kentucky. There was also Celis, but they still didnʼt know about Celisʼs existence.

Kinblei then pointed his weapon at Rean. ”Do you think I will simply accept such an answer? Since you can get this strong, then I definitely can, too. You better speak it now if you donʼt want to die.”

Rean shook his head, though. ”Letʼs be honest here. If you kill me, that means you couldnʼt get what you want either. Besides, itʼs not that Iʼm looking down on you, senior Kinblei. However, if I wish to leave, I will leave, and even a Divinity Realm expert would be able to stop me.”

”You...” Kinbleiʼs expression turned dark.

Rean could really leave if he wanted since he could use the Circuitry Teleport Formation. Even if Kinblei messed up the Space Laws around the Soul Gem Diemsnional Realm, that only meant Rean would teleport to some random place in the Universe. By now, with his Body cultivation, he could definitely resist such a teleport in a messed space environment. Of course, there was still a chance of teleporting somewhere bad, like inside a black hole or somewhere that dangerous in some of the Realms. Still, the chances were pretty small and worth the risk.

Rean didnʼt stop there, though. he looked at Nolui and continued to talk. ”Senior Nolui. We were all on this previous mission, and I didnʼt expect us to end on the other side. By all means, Kenny and I completed all that was asked of us and are still part of the army. Isnʼt this kind of treatment a little over the board?”

Nolui closed his eyes for a moment before talking. ”You did indeed get us out of there and back to the Realm of Gods. But there is a problem. The Vruves also went to the other side. Yet, none of them were brought to join us, which tells me the Vruves knew the Death Spirits. If you also know the Death Spirits, doesnʼt that mean you are allied to the Vruves?”

Rean shook his head. ”The answer to that should be pretty obvious. I got them to send us all back. Instead, I could have totally asked them to kill you all and only send me back. Yet, here we are. Does that seem like something the Vruves would do? Besides, your conjecture that the Vruves and Death Spirits are allied is just that, a conjecture. You have no proof of such a thing.”

”Last but not least,” Rean smiled. ”I donʼt see how allowing you all to come back to the Realm of Gods would be of benefit to the Vruves, who seemed to be interested in allying with the Devils instead. Such a piece of information would be of extreme importance to the Realm of Godsʼ experts after all.”

Nolui narrowed his eyes for a moment but decided to leave it at that. ”Alright, we will decide what to do with you once we return to the army.”

However, Kinglei just laughed. ”Hahaha! You might accept that, but I still donʼt care. Goku, right? Last chance, give me whatever secrets you have, and I might consider letting you live.”
