218 Impasse (2/2)

Lani snorted after hearing that.

”That would have been even worse. That meant that after one of you got Feifei, the other two would probably seek revenge for losing a Heavenly Core Fragment, so we would be inflicted anyway. As for the Sacred Land that we did the deal with, why would they try to stop the other two Sacred Lands once they already got the Heavenly Core Fragment? Would they really protect our Clan or Sect? I'm sorry, but neither of us has that much trust in any of you, especially the Darkness one.”

They have reached an impasse. It is true that Feifei is now gone, and they won't be able to call her back. But if they decide to destroy the Wang Clan or Divine Path Sect, Feifei would definitely never come back unless she was absolutely sure that she could get revenge.

So either their Sacred Lands wouldn't be able to touch her any time soon, or they would pay a heavy price once she gathered enough power to attack. For them, it's not unheard of a single cultivator bringing the destruction of an entire power of their level. They have access to much more information than the Wang Clan and Divine Path Sect.

There is another thing as well, Feifei's Heavenly Fragment only works with the Heavenly Fragments of those of the Luvile Universe. It is useless for any Advanced Major Core of another universe to take it. So she won't need to be afraid of the other side trying to take her Heavenly Fragment. Of course, Feifei and Krune had no idea about that at the moment. So they won't show their Advanced Major Cores that easy to the others.

In the end, the best thing to do was to get Feifei first.

”What if we take the Wang Clan as a hostage and force Feifei to come back?”

Hule commented.

But Raro shook his head.

”It won't work. That is because Feifei probably doesn't have anyone to send her back. Did you forget? Even if they got her to go there through a favor, there is no way that their backing would allow a high-level cultivator to go together. First of all, how do we even contact her to tell that her Clan is in our hands? If I was Wang Mei, I would definitely cut all means of communication and tracking possible.”

Linda then added.

”Not to mention, we don't know which is the power supporting the Wang Clan. But since they were able to allow Feifei to enter the Dalin Universe, it is evident that we can't offend them that easily. Was it really just a single Favor that was bestowed to the Wang Clan? At this moment, probably only Wang Mei and Lani Gobel know the answer. They are also exactly the ones that we can't injure because of this connection.”

Raro understood that staying any longer would bring no benefit to them and said.

”I have no reason to stay anymore, so I'm taking my leave.”

Before anyone could say anything, several spatial gates opened, and Raro left with his companions.

Linda just sighed and said.

”Same here, I'm out.”

She then left right after.

Hule, on the other hand, was very unwilling to do so. But it was obvious that the other two didn't want to risk offending a Universe powerhouse. His Darkness Sacred Land, of course, couldn't take the brunt alone either. Other than that, he had to immediately go back. Just because Feifei is there, it doesn't mean that they can't reach her.

”Hmph!”

Several more Spatial Gates opened, and the Darkness Sacred Land people and beasts left.

Lani looked at the spot where they disappeared and felt like a huge boulder was lifted from his shoulders.

He and Wang Mei then went back into the Wang Clan home planet to talk.

”The lie seems to have worked out well. It is the fact that they don't believe that we would ever be able to connect to the Dalin Universe unscratched that allowed the plan to work.”

Wang Mei nodded.

”Indeed. But if one day they found out that it was all a lie, we are going to be in great peril.”

Lani looked to the sky and asked.

”Do you think they can find out that no one helped us?”

Mei immediately shook her head.

”I don't know, but I reckon that this would be a big challenge even for them. Also, even if they can't find this 'backer' of ours, they can't rule the possibility that they simply didn't find it. So for now, we should be safe.”

She was also thinking a lot about this issue.

”What do you think they will do?”

Lani looked at Mei with a worried face.

”To be honest, considering their resources, I believe that they have a way to send people or beasts to the Dalin Universe if they pay the price. That is also the fastest way if I was them. As for the restrictions that they will get, that I don't know. Still, Krune and Feifei are definitely a lot safer there than if they would be here.”
