3051 Bad Premonition

Roan turned around, not willing to waste more time there. "Alright, I'm done with my part. I'm going to the World Splitting Sect now."

Rean didn't see a problem with that. "Then I'm going to the Saramina Sea to give Yuan some help."

However, just as Roan was about to leave, he remembered something. "Right, almost forgot." He then took out several bottles that contained pills he had concocted for his and Rean's use during their cultivation. He also added a Jade Slip with several instructions. Then, he threw them all at Foliana. "Make sure to check the Jade Slip and use the pills accordingly. I could have sent you a message through the CD, but I don't trust this Werdlem Empire System. Alright, now I'm off." Finally, Roan disappeared from the room.

Foliana looked at the over a hundred pills in her hand, feeling overwhelmed. If Roan's Blood Reformation Pill already did so much for her, then what about a bunch of other pills made by the same person? Too bad Roan already left. Still, she carved that favor in her heart.

Rean faintly smiled and patted her head. "He is scary and absolutely hateful, but he can be trusted. Foliana, it is serious. When you use the pills he gave you to cultivate, you MUST follow the instructions in the Jade Slip by the letter. Trust me, that's how you can make the most of what you have."

"Yes, senior Rean!" She didn't mind being treated like a kid anymore. She earned for those head pats now. "Can I... keep in contact with you two? I will try to learn more about our planet, galaxy, and Universe. I'm sure I can be of use to you again."

Rean nodded. "Well, that's for sure. Just don't go telling anyone about what happened between us in the past few days. In any case, I'm counting on you making huge strides ahead. Your cultivation speed is slower than Roan and mine, but you have an advantage. Your Dantian only needs around a third of the Spiritual Energy for each breakthrough, so you should be even faster."

Rean then looked at her waist, or, to be more specific, at Tony. "Tony, as much as you and Foliana don't like to cultivate, you need to take your time to work with her to increase your cultivations. We gave you all the speed you could ever wish for, so I don't wanna hear she died because she was too weak, understood?"

'Hey!' Tony took it personally. 'I know I don't like to cultivate, but that doesn't mean I'm an idiot. What I don't want is someone who will only think about cultivation for the rest of their lives, and Foliana is definitely not like that. Trust me, I want her to live as long as possible, even if it means some boring cultivation time.'

Foliana still felt strange to hear that Spiritual Sense coming from her Werdlem Stone, but at least the Artifact Spirit wanted her good. "Ahem... don't talk like I'm not here. Anyway, I will also take my leave, senior Rean. If I spent another day here, the bodyguards who came with me will end up invading this workshop."

"Hahaha!" Rean nodded. Foliana was still considered a risk because of her wish to read the hidden library. She would eventually be set free once she finished reading everything she wanted and signed the Soul Binding Contract, though. "Then we will see each other somewhere else again."

Foliana left first, bringing the bodyguards away with her. Some stayed behind, though, wanting to check what happened in the workshop for the past few days.

Rean didn't care too much and easily avoided those guys' attentions. From there, he went to the city center and paid to use one of the teleport formations. Obviously, he took the one that sent him to the nearest city to the Saramina Sea, Fauhi.

There, Rean looked in another direction, feeling his connection with Roan. 'Well, he should be able to deal with Diliy. Let's take a look at the other guy.'

*Zush!*

In a hidden corner of Fauhi City, a sleeping Horned Cloud Shark suddenly appeared. However, because he appeared in mid-air, he quickly fell down, hitting his head on the ground.

*Ouch!*

Yuan opened his eyes, feeling extremely relaxed. It was as if he hadn't slept that well in a million years. Then, the memories of the previous events rushed into his mind, causing him to get up instantly. "What?! Where?! Who?!"

Finally, he noticed Rean looking at him by the side. "Ah! Rean! What happened?"

Rean smiled. "How about you turn back into your humanoid form first?"

Yuan noticed he was in his real form and quickly changed before wearing his clothes again. "Done."

Rean nodded. "Well, first, I would like to apologize. My brother was supposed to look after you... but he felt bored and knocked you unconscious. You have been sleeping for almost a week already."

"A week?!" Yuan was taken aback. "That's not good! I was supposed to have returned to the sea palace already!"

"That's not going to be easy," Rean got serious. "You being late isn't the real problem here. Instead, it is the fact you escaped the Spiritual Canyon. I'm sure your Saramina Sea Demon Palace also sent a few elders to deliver their Demon Beasts. I've seen quite a few higher-stage Demon Beasts in humanoid form back at the Spiritual Canyon's entrance, after all. They saw through the monitoring system how you also got trapped inside by the collapsing of the caves."

"This..." Yuan had to admit Rean was right. If he escaped, then an exit must exist. "What if I tell them the truth?"

Rean smiled. "Give it a try. Tell them that a Core and Soul Fusion Realm cultivator built a formation capable of passing through the Spiritual Canyon's Protection barrier and delivered you all the way back to the Capital."

Yuan immediately gave up the idea. "They will think I'm crazy or blatantly lying on their faces..."

"Exactly," Rean nodded. "But do not worry. I have a plan. Hehehe!"

For some reason, Yuan had a bad premonition.

And as always, any Golden Tickets and Stones are welcome. ;)
