261 Blue World (2/2)
”Father...”
His name was Fink Jural, a Middle Stages Soul Forging Realm cultivator.
”Don't say anything, just let the healing pill treat your bodies.”
A few minutes later, the two brothers finally could talk properly again. Usually, they would use a Divine Sense message to tell everything that happened in a second. But now that their cultivation was gone, they also lost the ability to use Divine Sense. In the end, they could only talk like any ordinary person.
”Two Core Formation Realm youngsters reduced you and all your subordinates to this state?”
Both brothers nodded. They then proceeded to explain how the battle occurred. The more their father heard it, the higher was his surprise.
”Just what kind of monsters are those two? They could even use laws while in the Core Formation Realm. Such geniuses were supposed to have amazing backgrounds. Why would they come here to deal with the two of you? That doesn't make any sense!”
Fien then remembered something.
”I know why. Before and during the battle, they commented that we were being used to practice their new skills. It seemed like they had just understood a law, and wanted to put it to test. From what I heard after the battle, it seemed like they found us through a mission from the Mission Hall. Also, it seemed like they aren't from our Planet to start with. They are just passing by.”
Fink thought the situation to get even more dangerous. Since they didn't mind concealing their voice, it showed that they weren't afraid of someone coming for revenge either. He is, after all, just an elder in a nearby kingdom. Geniuses, like them, would definitely have terrifying backgrounds!
Fink reached the position that he has at the moment through knowing who he can and cannot provoke. His instincts were telling him that he might bring a calamity upon himself if he really tried to get revenge. He is almost 100% sure that those two definitely have protective measures. Something that would probably make it impossible for him to do anything to them.
He looked at his two sons and then sighed. There would be no point in moving out just do die or become a wanted cultivator from a big power.
”I should have stopped you two from acting like you did when I had the chance. But it seems like I have grown relaxed after becoming an elder. Because of that, you two ended in this state. Still, you two are only 26 and 29 years old. Different from me, you two really have high talents. In this Dalin Universe, I have no doubt that you can cultivate from zero once more.”
Fien and Fian were taken aback.
”Are you not going to avenge us?”
Pow!
Fink then hit both his sons' heads and rebuked.
”Are you trying to kill me? Think better before spouting nonsense. Those two talked about what they were going to do and where they are going. Do you really think that geniuses like them have no one protecting their backs? Two Core Formation Realm that can use Laws! Tell me, if you two were elders in a sect, clan, or whatever that had geniuses like those two, would you let them adventure outside without anyone protecting their tails?”
Fien and Fian immediately dropped their heads. Indeed, chances are that their father would die instead of getting the revenge they wanted. If that happened, then they would really be done for. For now, they can still have his help to cultivate again, but if even that disappears...
”Sorry, father. We were wrong.”
Fink nodded, satisfied.
”Let's go back. Once you two fully recover, you will start cultivating straight away. You two had achieved the Divine Soul Realm before, so your path should be a lot easier since you aren't old. Be thankful to lady lucky that you two are still alive.”
”From now on, I don't want to hear that you went outside abusing your power. Unless, of course, you want something like this to happen again. It is obvious that it was the enemies that you two gathered during your time playing as bandits that brought this upon yourselves. Worst of all, the request was sent to Mission Halls far from our Planet. Otherwise, I could use my connections in our kingdom's Mission Hall Branch to find out who did it.”
”Since that's the case, there is no doubt that your enemies are still out there, in the shadows. I hope you two aren't dumb enough to venture outside with shabby cultivation just to get killed by them.”
Fian and Fien's expressions immediately changed. Only the two of them know just how much hatred they gathered during these years of bandit life.
”We are going to play it low from now on, father.”
Fink nodded and disappeared in the distance with the two brothers.
As for the other bandits that had their cultivations destroyed, Fink couldn't care less about them. So they only had themselves to help.
