Is that a Wisp?
chapter-729

As they moved closer to the Spatial Gate, Feifei couldn't help but feel strange. Something about the way Krune talked with those cultivators and demon beasts felt off. No, it started ever since he began to talk about serious things after coming back. The event just now seemed to have intensified that feeling. Just as they were about to use the Spatial Gate, she finally understood what was bothering her. Immediately, she sent Krune a Divine Sense message.

'Wait, Krune.'

Krune stopped for a moment and looked at Feifei with a puzzled expression as he asked.

'Is there anything wrong?'

Feifei nodded as she looked deeply at him.

'You... Aren't you being way too overconfident ever since you came back to the Mortal Realm?'

Krune was taken aback by those words. He? Overconfident? Since when?

Krune quickly reviewed his own actions since he arrived in the Dalin Universe. It was then that he noticed.

'Ah!'

Indeed, he had been acting a lot different since he arrived in Dalin. For example, just as they entered this Universe, Krune said that there was no need to be afraid of the other Universes' Powerhouses. That definitely wasn't something that Krune would have said in the past. He was the type who placed security as the top priority on everything he does... well, it didn't always work, though...

The usual Krune would have chosen to go through every Universe while keeping hidden to attract as little attention as possible.

'What's wrong with me?'

Luvile snorted after hearing that question, though.

'Pretty simple. There are indeed only a few who could present a threat to you in the Mortal Realm at your current level. This overconfidence was simply the fruit of your own strength. It seems like even wisps can't escape this outcome.'

Suddenly, Krune controlled the Purple Lightning in his foundation, striking his own Soul with it. It wasn't just simple lightning as he used to temper his Soul in the past. He really used a strong bolt that made him almost faint.

Luvile was a little surprised by that action, but he quickly understood why Krune did that.

'Do you feel like you woke up now?'

Krune nodded.

'Yes. Luvile, if I start to act like that again, just strike my Soul and make me wake up again.'

It was then that Krune noticed something.

'Wait! You knew that I was acting overconfident before, right? Why didn't you warn me?'

Luvile replied as if it was nothing.

'Simple. I really think that you have the strength to be arrogant. That being said, why should I stop you? Perhaps, it would bring you some benefits in the future.'

Krune sighed before requesting once again.

'Please, don't just ignore it. We are already falling into a lot of dangerous situations. Well, I will pay attention to not let it happen again anyway.'

Luvile didn't seem to mind.

'Well, if you say so.'

Feifei noticed that Krune's face went pale all of a sudden. However, just as she was about to ask what was happening, he looked at her again with a smile.

'Indeed, my wife knows me the best. Don't worry, I won't let it happen again.'

Feifei sighed in relief as she smiled back.

'Then that's good.'

Fie and the others were behind the two, not knowing what was happening.

"Mom, Dad, why did we stop in front of the Spatial Gate?"

Krune shook his head.

"It's nothing. Your mother just reminded me of something. Let's go."

Krune then moved in the direction of the Multi-Universal Spatial Gate with everyone else. Even though he had come back to normal, the fact was that the Universes' Powerhouses already knew that he was using the Spatial Gates. That being said, there would be no point in trying to go back to Luvile Universe while hiding now.

Krune's group quickly passed through the Spatial Gate, leaving only those Divinity Realm experts behind.

"Caxin, what should we do?"

Caxin shook his head.

"How would I know? If Wally is really the one who let him out, we can't do anything since he already made it clear that he wouldn't intervene. Buying a fight against the only existence above the Divinity Realm in the Mortal Realm is a terrible decision."

Caxin then looked at the Spatial Gate, where Krune's group disappeared.

"Still, there is nothing wrong with playing safe. Go find a few spies to keep an eye on that wisp. If anything different happens, make sure to warn us."

The cultivator on Caxin's side nodded before disappearing inside another Spatial Gate.

Back in the Luvile Universe, the Multi-Universal Spatial Gate flashed. From inside, several figures stepped out in an orderly manner. As soon as that happened, three Divinity Realm cultivators and two Divinity Realm demon beasts stopped in front of them.

"This is the Luvile Universe, one of the Universes responsible for managing Dalin. What's the purpose of your visit?"

Usually, those guys wouldn't come out themselves. After all, Divinity Realm experts can't really act like gatekeepers. However, because several members in Krune's group were in the Divinity Realm, they had to step forward.

Feifei was the one to come forward before saying.

"I'm Wang Feifei, a member of the Wang Clan. My father is Wang Xin. We came to the Luvile Universe to visit my family."

The guys were taken aback.

"Oh, so you are the girl who stayed in Dalin Universe. How come you're here? Wasn't Dalin completely on lockdown at the moment?"

Feifei nodded.

"And it still is. However, it should be no secret to you that I'm married to a wisp. My husband simply asked the Wisp God, Wally, to help us pass through the barrier. That's why we are here at the moment."

Just as those guys were about to ask more questions, a Spatial Gate appeared nearby. From inside, a few Semi-Divinity and Divinity Realm experts stepped out.

"Father!"

Feifei was surprised by that and immediately rushed at the man at the front. The man then laughed as he hugged her.

"Hahaha! So you finally found a way to come visit your family, huh?"

Obviously, that was Wang Xin, Feifei's father.

Wang Xin then looked at the other newcomers when all of a sudden, his eyes stopped on the rainbow-haired guy.

"Krune!"

The Divinity Realm cultivators close to the gate were shocked when they heard that name.

"Wait! You mean the wisp that got us the Dalin Universe slot? That Krune?"

Krune felt a little embarrassed with all the attention but nodded nonetheless.

"Well, you could say so."

Immediately, one of them opened his communicator and sent a message out. From the looks of it, Krune's return to the Luvile Universe was a much bigger issue than he expected.

"Errr... is there something wrong?"

Wang Xin then approached Krune's group with Feifei before saying.

"Well, not exactly an issue. Still, the Sacred Land heads definitely want to talk to you. After all, you are the reason why we got a slot for Dalin."

Wang Xin couldn't help but sigh after saying that.

"Too bad it has been closed now. It was such a huge help for our Luvile Universe, but it is now out of reach."

Krune scratched the back of his head. He already knew it was going to happen, but he didn't regret helping Little Arty. Nonetheless, there was bound to be others who would hate it—especially Luvile Universe, which was considered quite a weak one out there.
