Rebirth in Against the Gods with The Ultimate System - 110 Chapter 110

Splash!!!

The sound of water splashing is heard across the area where recent event just unfolds. However, the water splash just now is not aimed at nowhere but on two particular people.

“Gurrkk.. *Cough *Cough… Who DARES!!!” Fen JueCheng regained consciousness immediately and tried to find the one responsible splashing him with water but since he was bound on a tree, he can’t rub or remove the water entered his eyes. At the same time, he still thinks he is in some dream and away from trouble.

“Who dares splash this prince!!! Men, whoever woke me by splashing my face, have him executed.” Cang Shuo roared as he woke up from Retsu’s intimidation from before.

“Oh… I dare all right.” A voice suddenly sounded as Fen JueCheng and Cang Shuo roared in the air.

“Looks like scaring them off earlier loosen some of their screws.” Another voice sounded in their mind.

As they heard the voice, both men immediately opened their eyes and saw three person standing in front of them. One of them seems to be a man with a lion doll on his shoulder and two ladies. Both of them knew the ladies well because these two ladies are the one they wanted to capture and used as leverage to get their companion inside the cave. As for the man, they aren’t familiar with this one.

“Yooo….” When they saw the man clearly, this man is really different from their previous encounter with other men be it disciples or soldiers. First of all, this one seems to wear clothing totally different from any clothing they’ve seen. He doesn’t seem to wear any robe just like them but the outfit was uncommon to them. His face however is far better than both of them combined. When they look at him, they were actually jealous that this man in front of them looked far more handsome compared to them.

“You… Who in the world are you? Why are you helping these two women? This has nothing to do with you.” Cang Shuo was the first one to spoke while Fen JueCheng still regaining his senses. When he woke up, he noticed he was tied to different tree, not that far from Feng JueCheng but both of them was kind of closer with each other.

“Nothing to do with me? I am guessing you two are here for that cave over there right?” The young man sounded.

Then he continued. “Yeah, the one you’re looking for…is here. The one person causes these two willing to fight even the prince of the Blue Wind Empire as well as the Burning Heaven Clan. ” The young man said while pointing towards Retsu and Cang Yue.

“So, you’re the man who stole Princess Cang Yue from me!!!” Fen JueCheng roared.

“Oi..oi.. steal is a strong word. Besides, she didn’t even like you. Your constant harassment causes her to ran away and by the way… You were trying to cripple her… So I assume you had some bad intentions to her. No wonder she didn’t like you.” He countered.

“You…you… no I was never… Princess Cang Yue, this young master only wanted to scare you… yes, as a joke. Ha…ha.. aha…” Fen JueCheng laughed awkwardly as he decided to use the most common trick in the book to get away.

Cang Yue kept quiet as she remembered what he said from before. Refusing to look him in the eye, she immediately hid behind Retsu as she didn’t want to see the despicable man trying to harm her.

“Royal sister, please let your third brother here go. We only wanted to bring you back. We didn’t mean any harm.” Cang Shuo attempt to sweet talk her in order for Cang Yue to use her self-conscious to let them go. He bet that Cang Yue will forgive them just like the other females but what he didn’t know that his attempt was easier to sniff compared to others and Retsu was already disgusted with him.

“*sigh, still able to lie and sweet talk even in the brink of death. Trying to use her self-conscious to save yourselves I see. After what you did to her, I doubt she would trust you two again.” Retsu said with a cold tone after seeing the attempt of these two.

“That’s right, trying to kill Nee-san. If this idiot won’t kill you. I’ll kill you myself.” The lion plushy sounded on the young man’s shoulder stunning both Cang Shuo and Fen JueCheng. It was normal for beast to talk once they achieved the cultivation of Emperor Profound Realm but this is the first time they saw a beast with weaker cultivation that can talk. Moreover, profound beast doesn’t have a body that can produce weird sound as it talks.

“Shut it, Kon. A worthless person like him doesn’t even care if she died. Both of them will never be the last person she’ll end up with.” The young man spoke.

“Worthless!!?! You… do you know who I am? If my father hears about this. You and those bitches will die. You hear?… You and tho…” Fen JueCheng didn’t even finish his words as the young man immediately slammed his hand on his throat.

“GUARKK…Wh..at. ar… e…you…?!?” Fen JueCheng couldn’t even breath as Yun Che hold his throat like holding a twig, just a pinch of strength is enough to snap them in two. What Fen JueCheng saw next was the rotating red eyes of the young man himself. The eyes he shows only to those who insulted his family.

“You can insult me but you will never insult my women. Both of them went through a lot of trouble and a despicable person like you don’t have the right to called them that.” He slowly let his throat go as Fen JueCheng was gasping for air.

Seeing both of them are bound by the light strap, Cang Shuo regained his bearings before started asking the young man in front of them. For his quiet sister to defy him and Fen JueCheng openly means this man and woman his probably her strongest backer. So, he wanted to know about them. What kind of backer she found for her to transform into a different person?

“Who in the world are you?” Cang Shuo asked him while Fen JueCheng listened.

“Me…? I just a super lazy person wound up in the world of cultivation. The person considers these girls and this thing here a family. Since you’re going to be dead anyway… I’ll tell you…You can call me Yun Che.” The man introduced himself.

“Yun Che…You… how come I never heard of you before…?”

“Well, I only made my debut recently. A famous artist doesn’t get famous instantly in the old days, right?” As he said that, all eyes are on him trying to figure out what is he talking about but Retsu simply sighs as her fiancée here tend to use his world’s words without thinking of the situation. Not that everyone minds but sometimes his bad habit tends to cause people some trouble understanding him. Yun Che stops his modern ranting before pulling a serious smile before looking at Cang Shuo and Fen JueCheng.

“Well…well…well… If it isn’t the third prince of the Blue Wind Empire, Cang Shuo and Burning Heaven Clan’s Fen JueCheng. So this is how you two looked like. I was wondering when do I have the honor of meeting you two.Anyway, long story short. You two aren’t going to leave this place alive.”

Feeling intimidated, Cang Shuo shouted “You… I am the THE PRINCE OF THE BLUE WIND EMPIRE!!! Killing me will incur wrath of the empire to you!!!”

“Yeah…yeah… Wrath of the Empire. Typical intimidation and cheap theatrical facade. Save your breath, it doesn’t work on me.” Yun Che said with a straight face.

Cang Shuo went from arrogant to scared once he saw his reaction. “Yun Che.. isn’t it?… Let’s talk this over…What do you want? Wealth? Women? Title? Name it and its yours. All you have to do just let me go.”

“Talk over? You knew her life was over the moment she married this scum. You never cared for her. You took advantage of her quietness and pair her up without her consent. In the end, you’ll became the emperor and she’ll spent most of her life in solitary only serves as a breeding cattle. You want to talk over? There’s nothing to talk about….” He replied.

Yun Che turned around ignoring the pleas of Cang Shuo. He never liked that guy anyway. From what he read until what he heard from Retsu. That guy was practically the same as any scumbag princes out there. None of them were decent. Once he arrived next to Cang Yue, he slowly said “Whatever happens to him now, it’s all up to you. Whatever you want to do, we’ll be behind you.”

Cang Yue looked Yun Che in the eye and Retsu nodded at her. She’ll proceed in front of him before confronting him.

Seeing his sister, Cang Shuo started to beg her. “Royal sister, please forgive your royal brother. I was wrong. I was wrong to force you… I was…”

“Shut…your mouth…” Cang Yue simply stopped him without hearing anything.

“Royal sister….?”

She pulls a deep breath remembering all the times and wrongs he did to her. Then, she spoke “I won’t forget the words you used to threaten me back then. You force me to marry young master Fen. You forced me to meet up with him every night. You two are the reason I escaped from the palace in the first place. All for what? Your ascendance to the throne? Our royal father was in grave ill but none of you cares. You and your so called ‘brothers.’ I watched him day and night without any support from any one of my ‘brothers’. After seeing your true colors today, looks like forgiveness is a little late. Third brother.”

Cang Yue slowly drew her sword before pointing it to her brother. Cang Shuo then tried to talk her out of it. “Royal sister, please don’t do this… You’re not a murderer. Please forgive me like you always have. You didn’t mean that right?”

Cang Yue pointed her sword but her arms were shaking at the same time tears slowly went out from her eyes. When women shed tears, she’ll be in her most vulnerable and weak side. Both Retsu and Yun Che can sense that she hesitated. Not long after she shed tears, she spoke while tearing up “Whether you’re vile as a demon, you’re still my brother. I will never forgive you for trying to kill me, harming me, torturing me and plotting against me. Even if I hated you, I just couldn’t kill you. I will never kill my own family.” As she said that, she dropped her sword before slowly walked towards Retsu with bangs covering her eyes.

Cang Yue had seen Retsu, Yun Che and Kon as her family. So she made a new vow that, she will never harm her family members. In the end, she couldn’t lay a hand on her own brother. She made a resolve to destroy those who intend to harm her family but she could not harm her own. When Yun Che saw her beautiful eyes, he instantly knew what she meant. She hated this bastard but she just couldn’t harm them.

“In the end, you’re still weak. You should marry Fen JueCheng when you had a chance. You should follow my orders back then instead of that sick old bastard. If you support me back then, I would became emperor. You unfilial sister!!!!” Cang Shuo shouted back at Cang Yue’s retreating back. He was losing it. He didn’t even hesitate call his own father a bastard. She finally realized sometime when people like him didn’t have their demands satisfied. They will become their true self once they face the brink of death. His sweet words just now are only clouds he used to trigger her self-conscious. Once they’re free, they will use everything to get her back. Now, she knew Cang Shuo’s true nature.

Hearing about her sick father, Cang Yue slowly tearing up. Unable to take it anymore, Yun Che and Retsu teleported behind Cang Yue before pointing both of their palms at him with their backs facing each other. Retsu was pointing her left while Yun Che did the opposite.

Cang Yue turned around and saw the two of them behind her. “Yun Che… Sister Retsu..What are you….?”

“It’s not that she won’t harm you. Despite having learn taking a life, she actually won’t harm her family members no matter what happens. She’ll never get over it. However, if she can’t. We can….” Both of them suddenly charged their hands with energy blast and judging from the energy channeled. Looks like mercy is out of the question.

Yun Che then continued “Besides, even if you can go back. In the future, the moment your father recovers is the moment your days are counted. But, you won’t live to see that happens.” With that, both Yun Che and Retsu nodded before firing a massive Sokatsui towards Cang Shuo.

“NO..No…Please…Royal sister!!!!” The energy engulfed Cang Shuo in one motion as the blue light covered everything in that area.

“BOOM!!!”

His dying scream was heard in the air as the Sokatsui obliterate them in an instant leaving behind a massive trench where the Sokatsui covers the area just now. Their action cause Fen JueCheng shook in fear seeing their display of power. Now, he knew the level of power he offended.

Cang Yue turned around and see the massive trench and she murmured “Rest in peace third brother. Cang Yue will pray for your safe passage to the afterlife.” But, when her brother was eliminated. She didn’t felt a shred of pity towards him. She didn’t even shed a single tear. Even though they were family but her imperial siblings were never close with each to begin with. There were times she tried to get along with her brothers but they only dismissed her and she had to spend her time alone after her mother’s death. When she was still just a little girl, the feeling of being used was commonly occurred from time to time. She merely thought that she was getting along with them but the moment her third brother and first brother trying to pair her up with the distinguished clans. She finally had it. Before, they were toying with her feelings and now her happiness. She couldn’t offend her suitors so she did what every girl should have done to escape the hell of political marriage.

Cang Yue felt like a massive burden was lift from her shoulders and she was finally free. Her third brother was the source of her demise and now, she felt like she was…free.

Retsu arrived next to her and said “After seeing what he did before. Forgiving him won’t change him for the better. Even if you did, he isn’t a person who lets this kind of thing go.”

“But….Sister Retsu… It’s heavy..” Even if she’s free, she couldn’t help but feeling heavy in her heart. Was not defending her brother the right thing to do?

“Stand firm Cang Yue. If you can’t stand firm on what’s right. How are you going to be the Great Empress in the future? The moment he tried to kill you is the moment your trust was shattered. Just like before, it’s either you or him. If you can’t end his life, then let us handle it for you. We’re your new family now. That’s all that matters.” Yun Che slowly said while patting her shoulders. He knew today is the day she finally grew up into a woman. The woman one day will influence the whole Blue Wind Empire.

Now, all three of them looked at Fen JueCheng which cause him to flinch in fear. If he could eliminate Cang Shuo just like before then what is the difference between them? His strength might be decent but in front of Retsu and Yun Che, his strength didn’t even qualify to look at them.

Yun Che looked at the person in front of him and knew this one was Fen JueCheng. The person will do whatever it takes to kill him and the very reason he initiates a slaughter that will spark a chain of events in the Profound Sky Continent. The despicable person that will cause him to annihilate his clan in the future just because he took his Little Aunt. He can only do one thing for now.

“Retsu, remove the bounds from his body.” He said casually.

“Yuu-kun?” Retsu turned her head towards him.

“Don’t worry. I know what I am doing.” Yun Che reassured her before Retsu nodded her head. She points out her fingers and the Sajo Sabaku from Fen JueCheng’s body was removed completely.

“Thank..you.. for…” Before he could finish his words, Yun Che already dive to him before grabbing his throat lifting him up in the air.

“You… guarrkk …What are you…?” Fen JueCheng struggle to release himself from Yun Che’s grip.

His words were cut off as Yun Che spoke “From now on, you will stay the hell away from Cang Yue. If you don’t comply, so don’t blame me for being ruthless. However, knowing you. You most probably won’t comply and tried to harass us in any other way. Instead of killing you, I’ll let you go so you can send as many assassins, cultivators or even hunt us down if you want to. We’ll use them as stepping stones in cultivation.”

Then, he continued before smiling sinisterly. “But, once we’re done with them, I’ll will find you and I will kill you. Capische?” But as usual, Fen JueCheng didn’t understand the heaviness of those words.

“Now, take those Sky Profound Realm warriors with you. In our eyes, they’re nothing but ants. Get the hell out of my sight!!” With a little push, he threw Fen JueCheng towards the Sky Profound Realm warriors. None of them dare to make a move once they felt Retsu’s haki. However, Yun Che ordered her to power down her haki so the warriors could move. They’re still scared shitless of her.

Fen JueCheng didn’t believe him and slowly said in his heart. “You …. Good…good…. I will not let this slide easily. Yun Che… You and those women will pay!! That Cang Yue, I swear I’ll make her life a living hell when I am through with them.” He wanted to act tough in front of them but seeing the distance between their strength makes him think twice. Even Sky Profound Realm isn’t enough to deal with them. Fen JueCheng was about to scram to his warriors but….

“Wait…” Yun Che’s voice sounded behind him.

Fen JueCheng force a smile and said “What can I do for you?”

“A young master like you bound to carry something in that spatial ring of yours. So, would you kindly leave that thing behind?” Yun Che spoke to him. Fen JueCheng was about to lose his mind. Not only he got his ass kicked but he was also robbed in broad daylight.

“You…Grrr… “Without retorting, he threw his spatial ring towards Yun Che. That spatial rings contained the items he gained as the young master of the Burning Heaven Clan. Not only that, it contains the arts of his clan. If his father knew that he gave it willingly, his life is good as over.

“Also, do have your warriors over there leave their spatial rings behind as well. It serves as a great compensation for Cang Yue.” Yun Che spoke before releasing his aura around him. After it was upgraded by the dragon. His aura is even more powerful and more intimidating than ordinary Haoshoku No Haki. Even a little force is enough to intimidate the rest of the warriors here.

With that, the warriors of the Sky Profound Realm scared shitless as they regained their bearings back. None of them say anything before took Fen JueCheng along with them and flew towards civilization. Seeing Fen JueCheng reaction, Yun Che started smiling, looks like his plan is now in motion.

Seeing Yun Che’s figure getting smaller and smaller, Fen JueCheng started making plans to destroy Yun Che before saying “Yun Che, this isn’t over.”

————————————————————————————-

Back to the forest, Yun Che observed the departing group of people with a smile. They leave behind the weaker ones and flew on their own back to the clan. It is despicable enough for them to know the lives of these men were not that important to them.

Yun Che turned around before handing over the spatial rings to Cang Yue and said “Here, as compensation for your troubles just now. Retsu and I didn’t need these kind of things.Those Sky Profound Realm warriors really does carry a lot of wealth in their rings. I already discarded the useless items in the rings like their so called ‘Burning Heaven Arts’ and battle items. Those things are quite useless to you but I’ll prepare something even better in the future to support your current cultivation.”

He had already scanned the rings to collect more herb samples and uploaded them to the system. The system used those herbs as base before cloning them and selling them to Yun Che. Also, he needed some samples so he could plant some in the inner world when he had the time. As for the other items, he just let Cang Yue have them.

Cang Yue nodded before receiving the rings and storing them in her own. She also planned to discard those arts as she didn’t have the slightest interest of learning the cultivation method of the Burning Heaven Clan and using any of their battle items. But since Yun Che already done it for her. It saves her the time of going through them later. After using the weapon, items and clothing Yun Che gave her, any other items are pale in comparison compared to them. Even if she had the spatial rings of her enemies, the only thing she take was profound coins and cultivation materials.

Seeing Yun Che’s action to Fen JueCheng, Cang Yue wondered why didn’t he ended Fen JueCheng’s life? Is it because of his clan? Knowing Fen JueCheng, he’ll do whatever it takes to harass them in the future. So why in the world did he let him go? She stood next to him and asked “Yun Che..Is it a wise move? Letting him go like that?”

“Hnnn, Yuu-kun. I was hoping we could end his life. I really hated that bastard for harassing Cang Yue before. How dare he harass my sister like that.” Retsu pouted next to him.

“That’s right man. I was hoping you could fire a massive Kido at him but you let him go just like that.” Kon sounded next to his ear.

Yun Che simply smiled and said “Don’t worry, he’ll play an important role in the future. I didn’t kill him because he’s going to be our window of opportunity in the future.”

“Window of opportunity?” All three of them said at the same time.

“Knowing that guy, he’ll send his powerful pawns against us in the future but we will use them to level up instead. So, we need to get Cang Yue ready for her next encounter in the future. Next time you meet him, you can beat him into a pulp on your own. Don’t worry about his clan. We’ll deal with it.” He spoke with confidence. Cang Yue nodded as she had seen his display of powers. The reason she was confident against Fen JueCheng is because of Yun Che and Retsu. Compared to him, the Burning Heaven Clan is like a small bug. Anytime he can come by and extinguish those bugs without batting an eye.

As for Yun Che, the reason he let them go is not because of creating a loose end. Fen JueCheng is considered an important character in the real novel where he played an important part in Yun Che’s growth. He let him go because he is the ticket for him to destroy the clan in the future. If he kills him right now, that equals ripping the opportunity itself. He plans to let the Burning Heaven Clan come knocking on his door before he exterminates them one by one without leaving anything. However, he need Fen JueCheng to be alive for that to happen.

“Anyway, we’ll see more of him in the future. He might come from a big clan but he’ll think twice about picking a fight with the Blue Wind Empire. Besides, your first brother had the support of the Xiao Clan and he won’t dare to cause a war between two great clans in the Empire. However, he might try something sneaky in the future. Let’s wait and see the things he can offer to us.”

With that, Retsu and Cang Yue as well as Kon nodded in understanding. Whatever Yun Che is planning in the future, they are sure that he had plans to counter any things came into the way. He brought them this far and he’s sure that things won’t go south.

“By the way man? What are you going to do with the leftovers men fainted by Nee-san’s haki?” Kon asked about the rest of the men left behind.

“What do you think Cang Yue? Those men were your brother’s men after all.” Yun Che asked for Cang Yue’s opinion. He remembered that those men were her childhood guards after all.

“Hnn, but they made their choices clear when they tried to kill me. I no longer desire to protect the men who betrayed my father. You can do what you want with them.” Cang Yue slowly said. There’s no use protecting the men who betrayed the kingdom. Betrayal is too cruel. Once the men found someone stronger, they’ll follow that person without any shame and betraying the person who cared for them.

“Oh, since they’re here. You can use them to level up. Kon. For me and Retsu, those men can’t even fill the skin of our teeth.” Yun Che suggested.

“Skin of our teeth?” Cang Yue tilted her head confusedly.

“Ahh, it’s like battle experience. Who can beat those in the Sky Profound Realm but Earth and Spirit Profound Realms didn’t even serve as an entertainment. Kon can have them.” Yun Che explained.

“Then let’s go… I can’t wait to breakthrough to the Earth Profound Realm. Wonder what will happen to my Lion form.” Kon shouted excitedly.

“All right… All right… hold your horses. We’ll have to clean them up before making our next trip. We have two months before the tournament began and let’s make our way to the city.” With that, Retsu, Yun Che and Cang Yue made their way back to the cave. They planned to have some rest before making their trip to a nearby city.

When they turned around, all four of them were shocked once they saw what happened. The rest of the men, they’re gone. The only thing that left were their fallen profound weapons. As for the men themselves, they’re gone. Even the body Kon borrowed was also gone.

Seeing this development, Yun Che asked “How? Retsu’s haki was supposed to last for another hour or two. Did the men regain their consciousness and ran off?”

“If they do, we would detect them before. How in the world….”

“My Levels!!!!” Kon fallen on fours being depressed all of a sudden. Those Earth Profound Realm men are his chance of breaking through but now that those men are gone.

Cang Yue was feeling the same thing. “But, they didn’t even take their weapons. Where in the world…”

All of a sudden, a voice suddenly sounded in the air. “Hmph, compare to Danna-sama. The energy of these ants aren’t even delicious. Tasting him was way better.”

All of their heads immediately turned around towards the source of the voice and the ladies as well as Kon immediately widen their eyes. All three of them saw a black dressed woman sitting on a black spider web made on the tree. What shocked them the most was the woman dressed in a similar fashion to what they are wearing right now. This woman was actually wearing a Kimono complete with the sandals. However, her Kimono was more like spider based design. Her hair was short underneath the ears compare to their long hair complete with a flower hair band. Her beauty was comparable to both of them as if she’s a beauty out of this world.

Then, the woman slowly floats to the ground supported by the spider webs. Seeing her approaching them, Retsu and Cang Yue immediately had their guard up but a voice suddenly shocked them out of it. “*Sigh, Mio, you’re out already?”

If Mio was out, he assumed that she managed to get to know the spirits well. Moreover, she could travel the real world and inner world freely now.

After hearing Yun Che’s voice, the woman replied “Hai, Danna-sama. I was exploring the area and I found some ants lying around. Compared to your energy Danna-sama. These ants can’t even satisfy my hunger.”

“Of course it didn’t you dolt. Maybe you should try eating normal food for change. Wonder how you survived by eating energy.”

“Muuu, Danna-sama. I am feeling quite hungry right now. How do you eat normal food?” the woman asked casually.

Retsu suddenly interjects their conversation and asked “Anooo….Yuu-kun? Do you know this woman?” When she spoke, both Cang Yue and Kon was also curious on this woman. Since Yun Che knew her clearly, it means she’s a friend but that doesn’t mean she can let their guard down.

Yun Che slapped his forehead and said “Ohh, I almost forgot. Girls, meet Mio. She’s my summoned beast that I made contract with in the Dragon’s trial realm.”

Mio bowed slightly to them before saying “Greetings Retsu and Cang Yue as well as Kon. My master told me about the three of you. I am Mio and my master’s companion. My master saved me from a terrible fate in the trial realm in exchange for my loyalty. I maybe incompetent but please take good care of me.” Before she went into the inner world, Yun Che passed a system notification about the companions in the real world to her. He said in the notification that Jasmine’s existence in the real world was concealed for safety reason and the humans in the real world knew him and Retsu as Soul Cultivators rather than Shinigami. So, whatever the reason, the existence of Shinigami and Inner World must be concealed until the time is right.

“You made a contract with a babe? Damn, I wish I had your luck.” Kon sounded next to him.

“Well, that babe is the Spider of Calamity. The strongest spider underneath the mortal realm. She might look like much but she’s actually a Third Level Monarch Spider but she’s now assuming human form when we make the contract.” He explained. At the same time. He sent Mio’s profile to Retsu allowing her to understand Mio better.

“So you’re a spider? So, you can transform into one?” Cang Yue asked curiously.

Mio nodded and replied with a sweet smile. “Yes, but my spider form is a bit inconvenient so I am practicing fighting in my human form. Don’t worry, I maybe look like much but my strength is still a third level Monarch.”

“A Monarch beast?!?” Cang Yue was shocked to the core. Yun Che’s current companion is a Third Level Sovereign Profound Realm. She even stronger than anyone in the Empire. Currently there’s not even one Overlord and Monarch in the Empire but now she’s actually staring at one. A simple but lovely girl but she’s actually a powerful monarch.

“So, when I contracted her. She can assume human form and what you’re looking right now is the spider’s human form.” Yun Che continued before he asked “So, the men were here just now. What happened to them?”

“Oh, I ate them.” Mio replied casually.

“You..what?!?” Cang Yue shouted and by the looks of it. She looked like she was going to hurl. Humans getting eaten by a beast is quite common but she’s a humanoid beast. Still imagine a human eating another one was making her sick.

Yun Che then explained with a flat face. “No, she didn’t eat them literally. Only their energy.”

“Really, thank goodness. I was thinking of Sister Mio here just ate them literally. So are they’re still alive?” She breath a breath of relief as she didn’t want a human eating beast roaming next to them.

“After draining them, I just place them somewhere on that mountain. I don’t know what happened to them.” She casually spoke.

“*Sigh, let’s just leave them on their fate. But I doubt they’ll be alive before sun down.”

“Hai, we were merciful enough not to kill them.” Retsu replied.

“But one more thing…..” Retsu suddenly sounded but her tone of voice was quite scary.

“What is this ‘Danna-sama? Yuu-kun, care to explain?” Retsu started asking her. She wasn’t angry but she used the kind of tone a wife would asked her husband if she caught him doing something.

Seeing her scary smile, Yun Che was struggling to explain “Uhh… well… its like…”

“Well, It means I am belong to Danna-sama. Especially, when he pour lots and lots of his energy into me.” Mio explained while holding her cheeks.

Yun Che immediately closed her mouth. “Oi…oi…stop it Mio. You’re going to create a misunderstanding.”

“Oh, Yuu-kun never told me about that part yet.” Retsu said while suppressing her aura.

Mio decided to add the fuel to the fire. “Ara… It seems that someone is jealous.”

Then suddenly the atmosphere was a bit awkward before Retsu started flashing her bloody aura around her while Mio also flaring her aura. Looks like both of them had stoic expression. The aura around them was powerful enough to scare any beast into fleeing the area as something really bad is going to happen. Their aura lift the small stones in the air as the surrounding pressure started converging around them. Since Mio is a godly beast and Retsu is a death god. Doesn’t this mean this is the battle of the gods?

Yun Che sighs as he pulled Cang Yue’s hand gently towards a safe zone while Kon sounded next to him “Oi..oi.. aren’t you going to stop them?”

“*Sigh, let them be. I’ll stop them if they went too far.” Yun Che then sat on one of the rocks awaiting the conclusion. If the girls went to far, he just jump towards them and give them both a smack on the head for it.

“Is Sister Retsu going to be okay? She’s fighting a monarch level spider. I mean.. she’ll be fine right?” Cang Yue decided to play safe this time. By the looks of their aura, this battle will change the landscape of the world if they decided to do it.

A few moments later…..

“It’s like that. To make the meat taste better, we must add a little of herbs to make the taste stronger.” Retsu explained while showing Mio a proper way of making a roast meat. She didn’t even fight Mio as she powered down and talk to her like a friend. In the end, she accepts that Mio also really like Yun Che and Retsu being his fiancee. Besides, Retsu felt that Mio never even wanted to fight. Maybe this is how she wanted to test the capabilities of other women. However, Mio also learns that Cang Yue was practically the same but she was more of a neutral kind of girl rather than fighting.

“Ooooohhh, so delicious… so it’s like that. Muuuu, Retsu-chan… you shouldn’t keep all the skills to yourself. I am really interested in this cooking. Can you teach me more?” Mio slowly said while eating the meat that she cooked with Retsu’s guidance.

“Haii…but I think Sister Yue’s cooking is practically same as me. Well, Yuu-kun teach us a lot during our spare time.” Retsu explained.

“Danna-sama can cook, Yue’er?” She asked Cang Yue. Actually Cang Yue was the one asking them to call her Yue’er but Retsu was still calling her sister.

Cang Yue pulled her sleeves before started to cut the meat into smaller pieces. “Yeah, that’s right. Sister Mio. Compared to him, ours are paled in comparison. His cooking skills are far beyond perfect. We only scratch only the tip of the ice though when it comes to cooking. Just how vast is his cooking knowledge?”

“Yosshh, I am not losing to you two in terms of cooking. I am going to ask him to teach me how to cook so I can cook for him in the future.”

“Bleehh… Good luck with that. Not if we learn from him first.” Cang Yue replied with a rivalry tone and sticking her tongue out at her.

Mio heard her before replying. “Is that a challenge I hear?”

Seeing Mio was already getting along with them. Retsu smiled softly and said “*Giggle, Mio really likes cooking that much? Looks like I have to double my effort in cultivating my culinary arts.”

As for Yun Che and Kon, both of them sat near the bonfire waiting for the girls finishing up with dinner. He was finally back to his usual outfit as he sat on a rock looking at the system’s interface and Kon was sitting on top of the rock beside him.

“Man, first they were fighting and now they like best friends with each other. Girls really are complex creatures.” Kon replied while looking at the three giggling girls.

“Well, Mio seems interested in cooking. She’s one hungry girl after all. Now, she discovered that she can eat other things aside from energy. Poor girl, unaware that the world had something more to offer.” He remembered that the original Mio really liked cooking as she was hungry all the time. He was glad that she could eat normally rather than consuming energy all the time.

“Hope she’s better than Yue Nee-san’s first cooking though. I still remember getting that painful stomachache.” Kon spoke while holding his plushy stomach.He still remembered eating Cang Yue’s first bad cooking.

“Well, deal with it, man. You and I were in the same boat at that time. We better finish this up before heading to the Imperial City. I need to teach Cang Yue some skills for her to survive the tournament and started training Mio using Haki. And I know just the perfect skills to teach her. As for right now, the training for the tournament starts now.
