Chapter 812: Can I Help You? (2/2)

”It is. I can feel my connection with Xanio's soul. He's definitely close.”

Xanio had several problems with the Sacred Lands in the past. That said, he made sure that before his death, he branded his soul in a way where it would be hard to find. Of course, he had no idea that the Underworld was sealed and that the Sacred Lands couldn't even enter. Feifei had seen his soul before passing through the Spatial Gate, though. She was certain it was somewhere around this place.

Suddenly, she felt some familiar energy coming from a specific direction. Immediately, her eyes lit up.

”Found it!”

Feifei immediately rushed in the energy's direction before spotting a feeble soul buried in a corner. The soul also noticed the connection with Feifei and subconsciously moved in her direction.

”Is this Xanio's soul?”

Feifei nodded as she said.

”It is. Xanio asked me to bring his soul back from the Underworld. However, he would need to take someone's body or enter a puppet just like Heavin did. It would make sense in the past when we couldn't do anything to the Sacred Lands. However, that's not the case anymore.”

Krune nodded.

”True. We can rebrand Xanio's soul to make sure that the memories from his past life won't be lost. Then, we throw him into the Reincarnation Path and wait for him to revive outside. It shouldn't take more than a month or so once he's already inside the reincarnation path. Once he reaches the Divine Soul Realm, his memories will awake once again.”

Feifei nodded with a smile. That was her idea as well.

”Let's do it.”

The two of them branded Xanio's soul, just like they mentioned. After that, Krune and Feifei marked the soul so that they would feel the moment he reincarnated in the Mortal Realm. With that, they could go after Xanio's new parents and take him to the Divine Path Sect, where he would have all the support necessary to reach the Divine Soul Realm with ease.

As soon as they finished that, Feifei opened a Spatial Gate. The couple then entered it with Xanio's soul in their hands before disappearing inside. They didn't know the Underworld well, so they had to use quite a few Spatial Gates until finally reaching the center where the path was located.

Feifei and Krune couldn't help but gasp at the gigantic dark hole in the sky. Naturally, that was the eye of the swirl. All the souls that reached the bottom of that would start to be sucked into it. As they looked around, they could see the tens of thousands of souls making their way up. It was quite a show of soul lights.

As Feifei looked in her hands, she could see that Xanio's Soul was also trying to get free so that it could enter the path as well.

”Well, then. I'll see you back in the Luvile Universe.”

Krune and Feifei let the soul loose. They accompanied it with their eyes as it got close to the entrance of the Reincarnation Path. Finally, it reached a point where it got too mixed between the other souls that they couldn't tell which one was Xanio's Soul anymore. As for Divine Sense and Mental Energy, it seemed like the swirl had some kind of protection that blocked both types of scans from passing through.

”Well, that's it. Let's go back home.”

Feifei smiled as the two opened a Spatial Gate back to the Luvile Universe. Xanio's rescue was almost a pointless thing in the end. After all, there had never been a risk of his soul being caught by the Sacred Lands as he thought. His fear of getting close to the reincarnation path and getting captured should have never existed.

”I wonder how he'll feel once he finds out the truth.”

Krune laughed.

”That's something worth waiting for to see. Unfortunately, it would take many years, even with the best resources, for Xanio to reach the Divine Soul Realm. We would have ascended by that time already.”

Feifei nodded.

”That's true. Anyway, let's wait for his soul to appear. I'm going to visit my parents in the Wang Clan. What about you?”

Krune pondered a bit.

”I'll go visit Lakin and Ruik's family. Let's meet again once Xanio's Soul reincarnates.”

”Fine by me.”

Feifei then gave Krune a kiss before opening a Spatial Gate and entering it. After she left, Krune didn't open a Spatial Gate for himself, though. Instead, he looked in a particular direction before saying.

”Ahem... Senior Barlo, is there something I can help you with?”

”What?!”

Suddenly, space began to retract as a man appeared out of nowhere.

”How did you know I was here?”

Krune scratched the back of his head before saying.

”Every since I got the Heavenly Core, I'm quite sensitive to all the elements. Senior Barlo's Darkness Element Manipulation and Laws are far above anyone I've seen in the Mortal Realm so far. Because of that, I could tell it was you who came here.”

Barlo was quite surprised with Krune. He didn't think that a mere Heavenly Core would be enough to reveal his existence. Well, in fact, it wasn't. Krune was able to do that because of Mental Energy instead. Of course, he wouldn't tell Barlo about that.

”Oh, well. Whatever. I need to talk with you.”
