Death... and me
chapter-525

Tiria insisted that she really didn't know where the twins were located. Erbec and Suan also did their best to try to alleviate the situation. However, neither Jana and obviously Xila weren't having it. Both of them didn't believe that these humans didn't know about the twins after three years.

However, just as Jana and Xila were about to force their hands, a voice came from behind the Lakure Race crowd.

"Hey, is there really a need for such an uproar? Come on, let's all be friends!"

Everyone's attention was instantly fixated on those Lakure Race members who made their way in the middle of the crowd.

Xila and Jana, obviously, couldn't believe that such low-level subordinates like those two would intervene in this discussion.

"How dare you open your mouth? Even if you're part of our race, I won't spare you if you spill another world."

Sure enough, Xila was the first one to rebuke those two newcomers. He looked at them with his Spiritual Sense and didn't see anything wrong. However, that only made him angrier since it went against his wishes, especially when Lakure Race members said that.

However, those two Lakure Race members didn't seem to care about Xila's anger at all.

"Hmph! What are you talking about, old geezer? You were talking about the two of us up to this point, so how come we can't talk about it?"

As one could imagine, they were Rean and Roan... with their Lakure Race transformation still activated.

Jana narrowed her eyes. As far as she could see, those two were perfect members of the Lakure Race, so how were they talking about them? However, it was then that something incredible happened in front of everyone. Rean and Roan's bodies shone with Light Element. Following that, the 'red meridians' over their bodies began to disappear. Finally, their appearance went back to normal.

"What?!"

Be it the Lakure Race or the humans, all of them were taken aback. If they didn't see it with their own eyes, they wouldn't believe what just happened.

"You!"

Rean laughed, not minding everyone's look at all.

"Sorry, sorry. I guess it was too much of a surprise to you guys."

Tiria couldn't help but ask.

"Rean, Roan, just what the hell are you two doing here? You were supposed to be outside."

Roan shrugged his shoulders.

"Does it matter right now? If we didn't appear, Jana and the old geezer would have attacked you."

Xila's expression became darker the more Roan insulted him. However, he quickly calmed down since more important matters were at hand.

"So you decided to sacrifice yourselves to save this negotiation between the two sides? How honorable..."

Rean shook his head as he replied.

"Sacrifice? Who said that? We came here with an offer."

Erbec and Suan looked at each other. However, it was true that they weren't the ones who handed Rean over, so this situation wasn't bad for them and their backgrounds. Naturally, the twins were the key to this negotiation.

"Rean, Roan. In the name of the Jialin Family, I thank you for coming out to help."

The twins didn't care too much about the other powers, only Dalamu. Well, it wouldn't be a bad thing to have the Jialin Royal Family owing them a favor.

"No problem."

Jana then calmed down as well.

"How did you disguise as members of the Lakure Race?"

Indeed, that was the main question at the moment.

"Oh, that's simple. As long as you're born with an affinity towards the Light Element, you will be able to do this much."

Born with Light Element affinity? Everyone felt like Rean was crazy. He was basically the only person who was born with Light Element affinity that they know about. Of course, only the Jialin and Guntao Countries thought that way. For the Lakure Race, that was the first time they heard about someone born with Light Element affinity. So far, they always thought that Rean was using Yang Energy to control Light Element instead.

"Is what he said true?"

Tiria nodded.

"Yes. Rean and Roan were born with Light and Dark Element affinities."

She didn't want to comply, but now that Rean had already revealed that, it would be useless to deny the truth.

Jana pondered for a bit before she disappeared. In the very next second, she was already in front of the twins.

"You heard the condition. If you want this negotiation to proceed, you better follow our orders."

Roan faintly smiled at those words.

"That's fine. However, you better understand one thing. We are not your prisoners or anything like that. We are only doing this so that this situation can be resolved without a war. If we want to leave, we will leave."

Xila snorted at them.

"Back then, I didn't notice you two were just clones. However, don't think you will be able to escape my senses anymore. From now on, you will work day and night, healing everyone's poisons."

Jana agreed with him.

"Xila's right. As long as you do that, I will guarantee your elder's safety."

All of a sudden, all the high-level experts surrounded the Jialin and Guntao Country's forces. Xila also used his Spiritual Energy pressure to lock them in place. As long as he didn't try to kill them, Jana wouldn't intervene.

The reason Jana and Xila did that was that they didn't know how the twins escaped last time. With that said, instead of capturing them, it would be better to catch those who couldn't run away.

Still, Rean and Roan didn't seem to mind.

"That's great!"

Jana and Xila narrowed their eyes. Why would it be great for them? Roan knew what they were thinking, so he explained.

"Jana, let a few of the elders leave. I want them to go out and bring back everyone at the Core and Soul Fusion Realm and below. Since you can have them, you might as well take everyone."

"What?!"

Both sides were taken aback. The twins wanted their entire forces to surrender? But why? Well, that was a good thing for the Lakure Race... or so they thought.

"What are you planning to do?"

Rean smiled before asking.

"Our conditions are very simple. Let the human cultivators live together with the Lakure Race cultivators for the next few years. As long as they stay in the valley, no one can attack them. Do that, and we agree to work on healing everyone's poisons."

Immediately, the entire field went silent.
