Chapter 337 - KunKun~ (1/2)

Initially, no one expected cracks to appear in the space.

But what surprised everyone even more was that something was coming out of it right now!

Ozul squinted to get a good look at the dull white fabric that fluttered out of the void. It was difficult to concentrate on anything else when the pure void was so enticing.

If the spatial crack were a fire lamp, Ozul would resemble a moth blindly drawn to its flame.

Everyone held their breaths.

It only took a split second for everything to sink in. It wasn't some mysterious object or a monster beyond their comprehension that emerged from the spatial crack; it was simply a human being!

The dull white robes fluttered in the air as the man stepped out of the spatial crack, and the wind began to blow again. The spatial crack immediately closed, as if reality had been played in reverse.

The man glanced around him for a split second before his eyes coldly glanced at the people below him.

A sneer stretched across his face as his gaze fell on the old man, whom he instantly recognized ”Senior Gu... We haven't seen each other in a long time.”

Due to the obvious contempt in his tone, it was clear that Old Gu didn't get along with this new person who addressed him with honorifics.

”Indeed, yet it doesn't feel that way. After all, your hand is still crippled.”

With a grin on his face, Old Gu responded immediately. He didn't appear to be fazed by the man. His remark drew Ozul's attention to the man's unnatural arm position.

He wore his blonde hair behind his back, tied with a ribbon. The robes were a little baggy, but they seemed to fit him perfectly. Despite their fluttering, Ozul could tell the man had the posture of a thick tree.

Ozul pondered in his mind, 'I can't sense his power either.' Because the man's attention was currently occupied by Old Gu, it was a good opportunity to gauge his strength.

”!!!”

The man gave him a side glance and squinted his eyes a little when Old Gu coughed a little.

”Get it over with quickly... KunKun~”

”What did you call me?!”

'He saved me,' Ozul had a feeling that Old Gu intentionally diverted the man's attention.

”It doesn't matter what I call you. Are you so free or did your master forget to teach you the basics of time flow?” Old Gu shook his head with a face filled with almost genuine disappointment. If one didn't know any better, they would think that he was really concerned for the man.

”You sure can talk after being here for over ten thousand years, Senior. It makes a junior like me really wonder if you are still sane and haven't lost your mind with age.”

”Don't worry, I can still wipe your ass with my eyes closed.”

”You are forgetting everything works differently here, Senior,” the man who Old Gu called 'KunKun' sneered in disdain and decided not to indulge with the old man more than he already had.

He swept his gaze once more across the fourteen people on the ground, and a frown formed on his already clenched brows.

”Why are there only 14 people here? They had ordered you for at least 30!”

His questions were directed at Old Gu, who was cleaning his ears!

”I told them to stop fighting when there were only 30 left, but look at them! This bunch is truly an unruly one; they didn't even listen to me and have only now stopped.” With a mix of rage and dissatisfaction, Old Gu pointed his greasy finger at the people down on the hill.

Even 'KunKun' had the impression that this was how Old Gu felt for a brief moment, but looking at the faces of those 14 survivors being pointed at, it was clear that the old man was shifting blame.

His clenched fists shook with rage, but he forced himself to calm down. 'Just wait until I report this back, they might overturn their decision not to end your punishment here after all,' he reasoned in his mind.

He took deep breaths, and a wisp of cold wind blew again, chilling even Rank-8 Mages.

It wasn't natural, everyone thought, but no one dared to ask any questions. If they knew anything, it was that even if they all combined their strength, they wouldn't be able to compete with these two people floating in the air.

”I believe you already know what's going to happen now, so let's g-”

”Cough!” Old Gu coughed loudly.

”...”

The muscles on 'KunKun's' face twitched visibly. To the point where even the most clueless could tell how enraged he was.

”You didn't tell them anything... did you?”

”Hm... I may have forgotten a little. Anyway, I was informed that I was called back?” Old Gu quickly switched the topic.
