Chapter 749: First Deal (2/2)

”Sigh... If the Lestral Sect rally knows about our meeting already, then they're definitely waiting for our attack. It won't do if we simply disband as if nothing has happened.”

”What are you implying?”

”We can pretend that we met to discuss a possible alliance. That would take them by surprise, no? Well, neither of us really want this. However, I definitely don't want to do the opposite of what that senior mentioned. What if he is still observing us?”

Everyone felt a chill on their backs. Just like that, they came out of their secret meeting and called the Lestral Sect. In the future, those three sects would merge together and form a new force that would quickly grow to the same size as the controlling powers of the Caxton Universe. However, that's part of another story.

Krune and Feifei didn't know about anything. They simply opened a Spatial Gate and moved to the Hure Clan's Territory. There, they finally spotted their main planet with their Divine Senses and used one more Spatial Gate to arrive.

The Hure Clan obviously had their own Divinity Realm experts. That being said, they noticed Krune and Feifei outside their planet straight away. However, their Clan Leader was taken aback when he saw Krune's appearance. As long as it was a dominating power, there was no way they wouldn't recognize Krune. After all, his fight against Iem was transmitted to all the Universes related to the Heavenly Competition.

”Aren't you that wisp who disappeared?”

Krune laughed after hearing that.

”Well, that was me indeed. I just came back, so I decided to pay a visit to your Hure Clan.”

Their Leader's name was Sopil Hure, a 7th Stage Divinity Realm cultivator. Of course, the Hure Clan had their own Peak Divinity Realm that kept themselves hidden. Nonetheless, Krune and Feifei could feel their Divine Senses paying attention to the two.

Hure was shocked when he saw Krune's cultivation. After all, it had been just 157 years since he was in the Heavenly Competition. How come he already cultivated to that stage? The name 'Wally' immediately came to his mind since everyone believed it was Wally's fault that Krune and Iem disappeared.

”Hahaha! Welcome, welcome! I've never thought that one of the Heavenly Competition Slot Winners would appear in our humble clan. This beautiful lady there should be your wife, correct? I've heard that you were a married wisp. Anyway, please come inside.”

Krune and Feifei smiled before accepting Sopil's offer. They were invited to the main hall, where a few of the clan elders were also present. All of them wanted to see this wisp. After all, he was linked to the Wisp God, an expert from the Higher Realms.

”Well then, Krune. I can see that you improved by leaps and bounds in your cultivation since the Heavenly Competition. This makes this old man almost die green from envy. Hahaha! Would you mind sharing the secret behind it?”

Krune laughed before shaking his head.

”Sorry. But Senior Wally made me promise that I wouldn't say it.”

Sopil didn't get angry or anything. Who would really tell others such a thing? He was just asking that without any expectation.

”Anyway, what can our Hure Clan do for you? At your level, I doubt there is much we can do anyway.”

Krune smiled before saying.

”I heard that your Hure Clan has kept an Ownerless Heavenly Fragment. I would like to know if you were willing to sell it.”

In an instant, Sopil's expression changed.

”I'm sorry. But we are keeping it for the next Heavenly Fragment Owners' appearance. We can't give them up.”

Krune wasn't the least bit surprised by that. He then looked at Feifei and let her do the talk.

”Now, now, Clan Leader Sopil. I understand your position. First of all, let us make something clear. We have no intention whatsoever of using Senior Wally to threaten your clan. You can be at ease.”

Everyone was taken aback. Indeed, everyone watching the meeting had thought about that possibility. Still, the Heavenly Fragment was just too important for the Hure Clan.

Feifei continued.

”Now that we made it clear, could senior Sopil at least hear our offer? I'm sure you will be pleased by it. Even if you don't accept in the end, we will simply leave without making things difficult for the Hure Clan.”

Sopil narrowed his eyes and looked at the elders. It was obvious that they were talking through Divine Sense messages. In the end, Sopil nodded his head.

”Very well. There is nothing wrong with hearing what you have to offer.”

Feifei and Krune smiled. As long as they were willing to at least hear their offer, Krune and Feifei were sure that they would reach a deal.
