Death... and me
chapter-529

Laro immediately recalled the figure that went by that name.

"Oh! That woman's still alive? Well, she wasn't that old back then, though."

Old Worm glanced in the chamber's direction before warning Laro.

"If you don't want to die, you better never call Palana an old woman. You have no idea how frightening she becomes when she gets angry."

Laro felt a chill on his back before responding.

"I shall keep that in mind."

Back on the twins' side, everyone finally finished venting out their anger by beating them up. Even some of them, who didn't want to fight, also used that chance, much to the twins' agony.

Jana then looked at Xila after that and asked.

"Are you all done?"

Xila nodded with a happy expression as he said.

"Sure, you can go ahead and continue with that negotiation of yours. Well, that's considering those two can even get up or talk after all of that."

Jana sighed and went to take a look at the twins.

"Alright, you two. Xila's group is done with you."

As soon as Jana said that, Light Element began to gather around the twins.

'Life Style, Second Form, Instant Recovery!'

In front of everyone's eyes, the twins' injuries began to heal so quickly that they could be seen by the naked eye. Their bones connected back together, the organs repaired themselves, and the bleeding gradually stopped. In just a minute or so, the two were already on their feet once more.

Rean then looked at Jana and said with a sigh of relief.

"Phew... That hurt like hell."

At the same time, he thought in his mind.

'Not as much as the meridian and bone upgrades, though.'

Xila's mouth couldn't help but twitch a little.

'Isn't that healing skill way too overpowered? Is that what it means to be born with a Light Element affinity?'

However, he quickly shook his head and put those thoughts on the back of his mind. Even if they could heal, they couldn't stop the feeling of pain. For him, that was the most important part.

While that was happening, Jana saw a few Core and Soul Fusion Realm members of her race bringing another guy forward.

"What is it?"

"We found out that this guy was together with the twins when they arrived."

Jana then looked at the guy, and sure enough, it was Wano.

Wano saw everything happening at the front, so he was ready to flee at any given moment. However, he saw that the twins somehow succeeded, so he gave up the idea. At most, he would get a beating as well. At that time, he just needed to ask Rean to heal himself.

"Is he your friend?"

Rean nodded as he replied.

"Sort of."

Wano felt like crying.

'We've been together for three years already! After all this time, all you think about me is 'sort of'?'

Jana shifted his focus back to the two before saying.

"Just keep him as well. So, Rean, Roan, your idea is to have everyone live together until the natural formation runs out of energy, right?"

The twins nodded.

"That's correct. That's the first step if we don't want to go on an all-out war against each other. You might as well use us as hostage for when that time comes, you know?"

Jana then agreed with the plan and let a few of the Nascent Soul Realm cultivators leave to bring the rest back.

Rean and Roan didn't do anything else after that. They left it all for the other humans and the Lakures to decide.

One of the Jialin Royal Family subordinates, Tiria, Galo, and the others left to go after their low-level members hidden somewhere else. Suan and Erbec were not allowed to leave since they were the only Soul Forging Realm cultivators of the human race present.

In the end, it was decided that the humans would be divided into several groups that would live together with other Lakure Race members. Each side's strength would be considered to ensure that the Lakure Race would be at the lowest risk possible with the human race experts. For example, Erbec would have to follow Jana, a Saint Realm Expert. It was the same thing for Suan, who would stay with Xila.

As long as the natural formation didn't open, the Lakure would have a massive advantage in terms of numbers and power. That was one of the reasons why Jana accepted the idea. Another reason was that Jana heard from her ancestor, Laro, that nothing could stop him from coming out anymore. That obviously made her delighted and relieved.

Jana then looked at Rean and asked.

"Can you continue to heal the poison in my body now?"

Rean nodded.

"Sure. Just give me an hour. I had to go out and bring my group members as well. We have been training with them, so I don't want to leave them behind."

Jana was taken aback. Usually, she would immediately refuse it. However, she was sure that she heard Rean saying the word 'had' just now.

"Wait... then this one I'm seeing...?"

Rean smiled before he and Roan's bodies began to turn into specks of White and Dark Light once again.

"Fuck! How in the hell can they do that without anyone noticing?!"

Jana then looked at the human race experts with a dark face.

Tiria, however, shrugged her shoulders.

"Even if you glare at us, nothing will come out of it. These twins had always been hard to control, even for our Dalamu Sect."

Jana gave them a warning, saying.

"For your own good, they better be back in one hour."

Tiria wasn't concerned. There would be no point in getting a beating to only then decide to flee. It didn't make any sense. Besides, she at least trusted Rean enough that he would be back.

Sure enough, around fifty minutes later, Rean and Roan came back. Obviously, Malaka, Calina, and Kentucky were there as well. Surprisingly, they also brought out a little girl that was no more than four years old. Those four were inside the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm, so Rean and Roan had to go to a secluded place to take them out. Wano was also puzzled about the girl, which Rean explained that he hid her in the Anti-Spiritual Sense formation.

"You wouldn't like to know we had been taking care of a kid, right? That's why we didn't tell you."

Wano scratched the back of his head. Rean's Anti-Spiritual Sense formation in the cave was excellent. He couldn't see anything while inside. He also knew that they had gone to the nearby cities a few times during the past few years, so it wasn't hard to believe they found this little girl there. It's just that he didn't like how Rean portraited him.

"Hey! Do I look like some kind of monster? If you told me, I wouldn't mind it as long as she didn't get in the way of our training. I could even help you if you wanted, you know..."

Real smiled and nodded. Now, they had an excuse to take Sana out of the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm permanently, and it was even before she got old enough to care about it.

When Jana saw that the twins came back, she sighed in relief. As for the kid, she didn't really care about her.

"Can you at least warn me when you do that?"

Rean looked at Jana with a puzzled expression and asked.

"Would you let me leave if I did?"

Touche!

"Ahem... Whatever. Just start healing my poison."

Rean smiled before nodding.

"Alright."
