Death... and me

chapter-514
Xila immediately rebuked Jana.
"I believed he meant that we should not touch those at the Core and Soul Fusion Realm as long as they don't represent a risk to our race. What this brat is doing is exactly that. He's casting a shadow over everyone's minds, which might cause a huge disaster to our race. There's nothing wrong about killing this human!"
Jana obviously disagreed as she refuted.
"Is your will so weak that you think a kid would be enough to change everyone's minds? The fact that you attacked him just now is undeniable proof that you also considered what he said was true. You're not helping the race at all by killing him now—you're just doing the exact opposite. Your actions have just increased everyone's doubts even further, idiot!"
Xila was taken aback. He immediately looked around and saw how everyone seemed to be conflicted. Sure enough, Jana was right."Fuck! Since I already did it, it doesn't matter anymore. Let me kill the kid so he won't say anything else to anyone."
Rean and Roan seemed to be ready to flee at any moment as if they could really be killed by the enemy. However, the two of them weren't really worried about Xila at all. After all, they had the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm. Instead, Rean was thinking about another thing.
'Can't they stop calling us a bunch of kids? Even though our bodies are much younger than them, we're still seventeen years old, you know? The people outside even think that we're nineteen. It kinda irritates me.'
Roan glared at Rean as he said.
'Who the hell cares about how you feel? In fact, let them think that we're kids. The more they underestimate us, the better.'
[Does that mean I can call you two kids as well?]
Rean and Roan immediately shouted inside the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm.'NO!'
*Uwaaaa!*
Because they were too loud, Sana woke up crying straight away.
[Look what you two have done! Sigh... It's alright, it's alright... Mommy Orb is here.]
Rean and Roan's mouth twitched in response.
'So you really accepted the Mommy Orb thing...'
No one would believe that the twins were having such a discussion in a moment like this, even if they saw it.
Xila then looked at everyone before asking.
"Who here agrees with me? I can't possibly be the only one who thinks this kid is dangerous."
Jana narrowed her eyes as she looked around. A moment later, a few of the Lakure Race cultivators came down and joined Xila's side. Sure enough, it wasn't that easy to make such hatred disappear after so long. However, there were also those who thought that Jana's words made more sense, so they joined her side.
"Xila, are you trying to divide everyone in a moment like this?"
Xila snorted as he said.
"That's my question. Why are you protecting them when it's obvious as to what you should do? I'm not the one siding with the enemy. You are!"
"Bullshit! I'm following the ancestor's orders."
"That's what you think. I think you're definitely going against them."
Xila and Jana's emotions began to get more intense, as if they would fight at any moment.
However, Rean took that change to intervene.
"Hehehe. So that's how you're going to act? Senior Xila, can't you see that if you really start a battle against your own members, you would instead be falling into our 'trap?' There would be nothing better for us humans than to have your Lakure Race members killing each other."
Everyone was taken aback by Rean's words. Falling into his trap? What the hell was he talking about? If he really wanted them to fight each other, then he should have stayed silent. It doesn't matter how you see it. Now that he mentioned this 'trap' of his, both sides would never start a battle. It would have been totally different if one of the Lakure Race members said it.
Jana couldn't help but take a deep look at Rean. It was obvious that he said that so that they wouldn't start a battle here.
'Could it be that he's afraid of getting involved in this fight? That makes sense since a battle at the Saint Level could really kill him even if he isn't the target. However...'
The more impressive thing was that he hadn't stopped healing her poison during this argument, even for a second. If he was just afraid of being involved in the battle, would he really waste his time continuing to heal her poison? Besides... how come neither Rean nor Roan seemed to be worried at all? If anything, they seemed really confident.
Nevertheless, she quickly put those thoughts behind her mind before she looked back at Xila.
"You heard him. If we really begin to fight now, that would only benefit the human race. Do you really wish to force your hand? If so, I'll definitely keep you company."
Xila narrowed his eyes and was just about to answer when all of a sudden, Roan mentioned something else.
"Why are you even wasting your time with this discussion? Isn't it thousands of times better to just ask your ancestor which one of you is right? That would make everything much easier."
Xila and Jana became puzzled. Sure, that would immediately make everything clear as to who was right in this argument. However, neither Rean nor Roan were supposed to want it. The reason was simple. In the actual situation, Jana's side would definitely protect them. Not to mention that a battle most likely wouldn't happen anymore after what Rean said. Simply put, this situation kept them safe.
However, if they went to their ancestor and found out that he agreed with Xila, they would die straight away. Even Jana wouldn't be able to protect them. No, Jana would be the first to cut their heads since she also hated humans. She was only protecting them because of the ancestor's words.
They were throwing away a close to 100% chance of survival for a 50-50 chance.
"Are you two idiotic?"
Roan and Rean shook his head as they responded simultaneously.
"Nope. We just wish very much to meet this ancestor of yours."
Jana, Xila, and everyone else was at a loss for words. There must be something wrong with these two.
