Death... and me
chapter-1745

Roan then left the room while Rean entertained Ramona for a bit. "Well, you don't seem to be affected by the fate of our planet."

Romona sighed in response, saying, "The way I died was just too weird. Suddenly, I saw an extremely bright light. In the next second, I was no more. Deep down, I felt like I wasn't the only one affected by that. Ever since I reincarnated and recovered my memories, I prepared myself for this possibility."

"I see..." Rean nodded in response. "That was very mature of you. Still, Space Bending Realm while you're still sixteen in this new life of yours. That Void Shattering Pill is really unfair. Roan and I went through so much, but we're still in the Late Stage of the Transition Realm."

Ramona shrugged her shoulders, replying, "That's what it means to have a very high talent. Did you know? I was born with Purple Talent here!"

Rean narrowed his eyes, saying, "For a power like the Jamai Sect, I believe Purple Color Talents are the same as grass. They can find it everywhere."

"Tch..." Ramona didn't like Rean's words, even though it was true. "Even though you're right, you could at least feel a little happy for me." She continued, "Anyway, it's true. There's no lack of Purple Color Talents in the Jamai Sect. However, my mother is one of the high-ranked elders there. Not to mention that my innate ability to see through the karma threads has given me a few extra perks. Of course, that doesn't mean I didn't put in the effort. Do you have any idea how hard it was to cultivate to the Initial Stage of the Space Bending Realm in just eleven years?"

"Initial Stage?" Rean was surprised to hear that. "Sure enough, having to transform normal Divine Energy into Origin Energy really takes time. Even with your position, you only went up a single realm after taking the Void Shattering Pill."

Ramona nodded, saying, "That's correct. We do have Rank Seven Divine Stones in our sect. My mother even has a few Rank Eight ones. However, Rank Seven Divine Stones are still hard to get and need to be used for many things. With that said, even I can't use them for cultivation. In fact, I'm only allowed to use Rank Three and Rank Four Divine Stones. Well, at least I can use as many as I want. And that's because of my mother's personal stash. If it was anyone else without a backing like mine, Rank Three would be their limit. That's one more reason why Andrile is so angry with me. He doesn't really have a backing as I do, so he can't use Rank Four Divine Stones, only Rank Three ones."

Rean didn't doubt that. Rank Three Divine Stones in Jhiod Sect were very hard to come by. It went without saying that the Jhiod Sect wouldn't let anyone cultivate with their Rank Four and above ones. They were just too important. However, in the Jamai Sect, the top disciples still had the chance to use Rank Three ones normally. Jhiod Sect would never be able to afford everyone doing it. That showed the difference in riches between Jhiod and Jamai. If one had a good backing like Ramona, even using as many Rank Four stones as one wanted wasn't unthinkable in that place. For the twins, Rank Four Divine Stones were their treasure at the moment.

"That makes sense. After all, that teleport formation where the spatial gate opened is definitely using Rank Seven Divine Stones. And from the looks of it, you're opening tens if not hundreds of them at the moment. You truly can't afford to let everyone cultivate with such high-level Divine Stones. Perhaps only those like your mother are allowed to use them for cultivation. Besides, it would help people like you to not become dependent on them."

Ramona narrowed her eyes, asking, "You've definitely met my mother before, didn't you?"

Rean nodded, saying, "But of course! She told me that I shouldn't let you strip anymore. That's how much she trusts me."

Ramona's mouth twitched after hearing that. "That's it!"

Spatial powers contracted around Rean as it locked the guy in place. "Time for a beating!"

"Hey! That's not fair! Your cultivation is much higher!" Rean complained.

Ramona couldn't care less as she snorted. "Hmph! Since when has life ever been fair?"

If it was a Space Bending Realm cultivator from Jhiod Sect, Rean might have been able to struggle with all his strength to get free. However, Ramona was obviously several times more proficient and stronger than Jhiod Sect cultivators at the same level. She was someone from the center of the Realm of Gods, after all, and the daughter of one of the high-ranking elders at that. Rean's strength compared to the average level of Jamai Sect's top geniuses would probably be around the peak of the Transition Realm or the Initial Stage of the Void Tempering Realm. He had no chance of escaping! Well... he had it coming for him.

A few minutes later, Roan returned to the room after bringing Luan out of the Dimensional Realm. Naturally, they noticed the now beaten White Ghost locked in mid-air on the corner.

Roan then looked at Ramona, saying, "This is my disciple, Luan."

Rean felt like crying after hearing that. Roan completely ignored his plight. "Are you going to pretend you can't see me?"

Roan showed a puzzled expression. "I could swear I heard some ghost's voice. Anyway, Luan, just ignore the ghost, alright?"

Luan didn't really want to get involved in whatever was happening. "Y-Yes, father."

Immediately, the spatial power holding Rean in place disappeared as Ramona looked at Luan with a shocked expression. "W-What did you say?! Did you call him f-father?!"

Rean, who was finally free, immediately used his Instant Recovery skill to heal himself. 'Seems like Luan's presence saved my life.'

Luan, on the other hand, looked at Ramona's shocked expression. "Is there a problem, young lady?"

Ramona fell to her knees in disbelief. "I can't believe Roan got a kid..."
