Chapter 607: The Real One (2/2)
”I don't have all that authority you talked about. I'm far from that. The one who has it is my mother.”
”Your mother?”
Tulike nodded.
”Yes. Her name is Franlia Katuas.”
This time, Krune was really shocked by what he heard.
”The God Core Realm Sect Master?!”
Tulike looked at Krune's expression and laughed even more.
”Hahaha! I knew you would be like that. It was worth waiting for so long.”
Krune came back to himself.
”No, wait! I checked the information available on the network. It is said that Franlia has never had a child before, nor does she have a husband. How come you became her son out of nowhere?”
Tulike shrugged his shoulders.
”That's what the outside world believes. However, my mother is the Sect Master and a God Core Realm cultivator. Do you think there are many cultivators and demon beasts out there that can spy on her affairs? I strongly doubt so. Hahaha!”
Krune couldn't help but ask.
”Why did you tell me that? Wasn't it supposed to be a secret? What if you become a target of the other sects?”
This time, Tulike looked at Krune as if he was an idiot.
”And who would believe you?”
”Ah!”
Krune had to admit that Tulike is right. He is just a puny Divine View Realm 'cultivator.' He is someone who had just joined the Sect and without any background to speak of. Even if he goes outside announcing to everyone what he found out, no one will buy it. At most, others would think he is trying to trick them for their money or something like that.
After all, the other sects like the Flower River and Three Peaks definitely have spies inside the Sky Shifting Sect. Until now, no one found out that the Sect Master has a child. Then why would Krune, a nobody, find about it that easily? Ha! What a joke!
Tulike smiled before asking.
”By the way, you wouldn't tell anyone to start with, right?”
Krune answered with another question.
”Why do you think that?”
Tulike shrugged his shoulders.
”Because we are friends? You are not the type who would ever put your friends at risk. That much, I'm sure. At the very least, that's the impression you gave me during this time we had interacted with each other.”
Krune's eyes narrowed.
”Indeed. I would rather take the hard path other than putting my friends at risk. However, are you a friend?”
Krune continued.
”I used a blood contract on Nina in the past before she reached the Divine Soul Realm. I can guarantee that she had no idea about her bloodline before. Since that is the case, would you release her? She is completely innocent in this situation. If you are my friend, you should at least help me with it.”
Tulike shook his head after hearing that.
”I told you, I don't have the authority to make that decision. As for Nina and her Brother, I had no choice but to report them. It was nothing personal. It was my duty as a Sky Shifting Sect Member.”
Krune knew that it was true. There is a war at the moment. If he was in Tulike's place, he probably would have done the same.
At this moment, the man who was in the kitchen came out once more. He began to clean the table where Krune and Tulike just ate. Krune smiled and then returned his attention to Tulike.
”Would you mind talking with your mother once more? You already asked her to let me out of this. Could you do the same thing again? At least, let me see her and talk.”
Tulike nodded as he looked at the man cleaning the table.
”Dad, do you think mon will come out for dinner today?”
The man looked at Tulike.
”She should be. Today we have Myriad Life Herbs Soup for dinner. You know how much she likes that, so she would come unless she had something important to do.”
Krune was shocked by what he heard. The servant was, in fact, Tulike's father! If that's the case, he is also the Sect Master's hidden husband! Krune quickly spread his Divine Sense and promptly confirmed. He couldn't see the man's cultivation at all!
