Chapter 2 - I promise! (2/2)

Krune was struck by lighting, he knew that wisps had very limited life spans but he probed from the nearby villages and found out that Foundation Establishment cultivators gain a 100 years of extra life span after the breakthrough, but really didn't know this was something proportional to one's initial life span, immediately his mind went in turmoil. 'Should I give up? Foundation Establishment already seemed a far fetched dream and now it looks like even if I reach there it will not have much of a meaning.'

Krune kept silent for a few minutes but neither Feifei or the old man rushed him, even Feifei as young as she looked understood that he got a harsh setback after those words.

After thinking and thinking more that feeling from before, that unwillingness he felt when he was about to be captured started to grow again, until it finally reached the same point as before, there is only one way, only one thing to be said.

'I'M UNWILLING!'

”Thank you senior for the words of advice, but Krune still wishes to try.

I probably, no, I most definitely won't succeeded but as I said before, I simply can't let go, because of this I'm sorry but I can't go.”

The old man looked deeply at the wisp in front oh him and after a while he just sighed, Feifei beside him was already tearing up.

Krune also noticed her tears and was taken aback, no one has ever cried because of him, he had no idea about what to do, he was lost and didn't know what to do, but then he remember that as a wisp, a being of energy, he could control the energy around his body and change his own form to look like something else, of course, he would still have the energy like appearance so no one would ever be fooled by that.

He started to play like a sparrow, jump like a frog, he created a mini pool of energy, took the form of a whale and splash the energy around, more and more he kept changing and doing dumb things.

When Feifei saw all of that she burst in laugh, she almost rolled on the ground from laughing so hard, the old man by the side was quite pleased with the wisp's performance, he indeed looked like a strict elder, but for him who had been protecting Feifei ever since she was born he obviously saw her as his own granddaughter and loved her very much.

Krune left a sigh of relief

”Is miss Feifei happy now?”

Feifei looked very happy at moment when suddenly an idea came in mind.

”I am, so I will let you go, but you have to promise me one thing first.”

Krune looked a little lost but agreed with it nonetheless.

”As long as I am able to accomplish it miss Feifei can count on me.”

Feifei Smile and said.

”When you get strong enough you must come and marry me, only me, I wont accept any other woman, and I do not allow you to die, you have to come or I won't forgive you.”

Both Krune and the old man were taken aback, did she hear anything that was said just a while ago? The chances of such a thing to happen is as difficult as ascend to the heavens.

And what is this talking about marrying? Both him and the old man thought the same, he's just a wisp, the Wang Clan would never accept such bullshit.

The old man quickly scolded

”Feifei, cut the crap, whats this marrying thing you talking about, you are just a child, do you even know what a marriage means? Besides, he's just a wisp, let's forget about the fact the he will probably not even get to such realm in the future, even if he does do you think your father would permit that?”

The old man could also have said that you can't marry a wisp since it wasn't man or woman, but then he remembered that all non human like life forms can achieve the human form once their cultivation is higher enough, simply put, the weaker the type of life form, the earlier they can change into human form, for divine beast for example, they can change into their human form at the void breaking realm.

But what about wisps?

Foundation Establishment! They are so weak that they can immediately change into their human form as soon as they do their first realm breakthrough is done, their gender will be decided according to their way of thinking, and this wisp is bound to be a man 100% sure!

It's not like there has never been Foundation Establishment wisps before, and with Feifei status, it would be way to easy for her to find about it.

Feifei did not give up and started a tantrum

”I don't care! Krune at least is much funnier than all those annoying guys father keeps forcing me to meet, I don't like any of them, Krune is much better!”

Krune was lost at words, then he suddenly started to laugh, his heart, or better, his core felt warm like never before, he couldn't help but think 'this little lady probably doesn't even know the importance of those words.'

Feifei and the old man looked strangely at him, Krune looked back at Feifei and said.

”Haha! Sure, I'll make sure to become so strong enough that even your father will have nothing to complain about, In this Krune's life he will only love Wang Feifei and no one else!”

”I promise!”
