380 Inheritance (1/2)
”Or so I would like to do, but it is impossible for me to remove my Tribulation Lightning from your daughter.”
Olave and Valindra were taken aback. Right after, both of their expressions turned dark.
”Are you saying that you are going to keep using it against us?”
Feifei saw that and couldn't help but laugh.
”Stop bullying them.”
Krune looked at Feifei and laughed as well.
”Alright, alright. It is just a little revenge for what they have done to the wisps so far.”
Olave and Valindra obviously got puzzled. It seemed like there was something wrong in this situation, but they couldn't understand what.
”I'm not lying. I really can't remove the Tribulation Lightning from your daughter's Soul. But it is not because I want to use it against you two. It is just that her Soul doesn't have it to start with. The little bit that I left inside the Purple Flame Life Dew Pill was only enough to play that little trick you saw in the past.”
Olave and Valindra were taken aback.
”Are you telling me that she is fine, and you couldn't do anything against her to start with?”
Krune shook his head.
”Wrong! If I wanted, I could have left enough Lightning Power hidden in her Soul to destroy it. But I didn't, that's all.”
Olave couldn't help but ask.
”Why?”
Krune shrugged his shoulders and said.
”She had nothing to do with our deal. I would never use an innocent for my own sake, either. So whether you had paid your favor to me or not, I would still not have done anything against her. It is that simple.”
Valindra narrowed her eyes after hearing that.
”What proof do you have that can make us believe you?”
Krune shook his head.
”I don't have any. Unless you consider the time to be the proof itself. One day, she will reincarnate, and I'm sure Olave can feel the location of his mark once she appears in Dalin once more. She will cultivate under your protection and one day reaches the same level again. When that time comes, you will know that I told you the truth.”
Olave patted Valindra's shoulder and spoke.
”We will hold onto your word.”
Valindra knew that there was really no way to prove that Jolk was telling the truth. In the end, she sighed and nodded.
”Very well, I will believe it for now.”
Krune nodded.
”Don't worry, you can do whatever you want from now on.”
Both parties then exchanged a few more words and then bid their farewell. But just as Olave was about to leave, he asked something else.
”Oh, right! There is a friend of mine who would also love to use that Purple Flame Life Dew Pill of yours. As you probably can imagine, I'm not the only cultivator in existence who stopped a loved one from entering the Cycle of Sansara.”
”Take it. That's the Purple Flame Life Dew Pill.”
Olave and Valindra were shocked to see that.
”This... Isn't this Pill the same one you crafted a few months back?”
Krune smiled.
”The one and the same.”
Olave thought it to be impossible! The Pill was supposed to have lost its effect in at most an hour after it was concocted. Not to mention that every minute would make it lose a lot of its effects. Using the Life Dew Pill during the last minutes would make almost no change either.
”What is happening here? Does it mean that you could have created a Purple Flame Life Dew Pill that could be carried around from the very start?”
Krune nodded and shook his head at the same time.
”It is true that you can carry it around now, but the fact is that I didn't know that my Purple Flame could hold the pills' effect inside. As you know, that day when you were here with your Daughter's Soul, was the first time I had concocted a Life Dew Pill. So I was also taken by surprise when I found out this side effect of my Purple Flame.”
Olave had to admit that it was true. He was here that day, after all.
”What do you want in exchange?”
Krune shook his head.
”Let's just say that I'm seeding some good karma. Hahaha!”
In fact, the one who asked Krune to do that was Feifei. Krune trusted Feifei's judgment, so he just followed her request.
Olave narrowed his eyes for a few seconds while thinking. In the end, he accepted the Pill.
”Thank you.”
Krune nodded.
Suddenly, Space Laws started to gather around Olave's hand. Krune looked at that and couldn't help but think about that day when he first created the Purple Flame Life Dew Pills.
Sure enough, Olave thrust his arm forward, and once again, it seemed like it had disappeared. Krune knew what he was doing, and a smile appeared on his face.
'Just as Feifei said.'
Feifei had told him through a Divine Sense Message to pass over the Purple Flame Life Dew Pill. If he did that, probably something good would happen.
Around twenty minutes later, Olave pulled his arm back. On his hand, Krune could see a total of the drops of Life Dew! Olave immediately passed it to Krune and said.
”I will make sure to tell my friend about it.”
Olave and Valindra turned around and left Krune's house straight away.
Krune knew that he couldn't waste time, so he immediately rushed inside his Alchemist room. The concoction went without any issues, and three new Purple Flame Life Dew Pills came out. Krune looked at that and couldn't help but feel excited. All three of them had the same trait. They didn't lose any life energy at all!
Feifei, who was observing everything, couldn't help but smile.
”Fortunately, I wasn't wrong.”
Krune nodded.
”Thanks to your Divination, that is.”
Surprisingly, Feifei shook her head.
”I didn't use my Divination Abilities. Because Olave's cultivation is too high, I wouldn't work to start with. It was nothing more than something that I felt on the spot.”
Krune was surprised by that.
”Like... instinct?”
Feifei couldn't help but nod.
”Yes! That would be a very fitting word for it. Divination and Instinct aren't too different from each other, so the new Heavenly Fragment might have something to do with it. Or maybe it was just luck too. Of course, I can't possibly compare myself with Rarol. That Krakat Cougar is just too overpowered. In his case, even the cultivation level makes no difference.”
Krune smiled and then passed a bottle with one Pill to Feifei.
”Whether it was something like Rarol or just luck, the fact is that we got three Purple Flame Life Dew Pills. These little guys can become a lifesaver in the future. I will also give one Pill to Tiane and Ruik, just in case. The last one, I will keep with me.”
Feifei nodded and put the Pill in her Spatial Ring.
Krune smiled and gave her a kiss.
”I'm going back to the Blacksmith Organization Branch in the Wisp World 9. Do you need anything?”
Feifei pondered a bit and nodded. The high rate of Spiritual Energy absorption from her baby is really starting to worry her, after all.
”Well, to be honest...”
When Krune heard everything, he was startled.
”How can that be?! Isn't it way too hungry?”
Krune pondered a bit and decided to go ask Cinty about it.
The couple soon arrived at Cinty's place and went to see her in her cultivation room.
When Cinty saw the two of them, she returned to her human form and smiled.
