Thanks to telling her what 'race' they are from, Krune and Iem didn't have to say anything about the true origin of the Devil Flames and Purple Tribulation Lightning.

Still, Franlia quickly calmed down. After all, what are the chances of two of the most powerful races appearing in her sect at once? That seemed extremely unlikely. Too bad, though. Krune and Iem really joined the Sky Shifting Sect by coincidence. They needed a place where they could get the items they needed, that's all.

​​

"How come you two got to become friends and joined my sect at the same time? Don't tell me that you were some kind of childhood friends or anything like that. I don't believe it."

Iem couldn't help but laugh.

"Hahaha! Of course not. We met each other, much, much later. In fact, it was during a battle that we came to know each other. As to why we are together, that's because of certain circumstances that we can't talk about. Still, the fact that we have never joined any power in the Godly Path Realm is true."

Franlia finally caught the meaning behind their words.

' They keep saying they never joined any power in the Godly path Realm... Could it be that they came from outside? In that case, we have the Mortal Realm below and the God Realm above, but which one?'

"Then, what is your objective in staying in my Sky Shifting Sect? I'll tell in advance that if I find that you pose risks to my sect, I'll get rid of you two straight away."

Krune shook his head after hearing that.

"There is no need to worry about that. Joining Sect Master's Sect was nothing more than a coincidence. We needed someplace that would give us the background necessary to buy rare items. As Sect Master knows, the market for those with low-level cultivation and without power behind them is extremely restricted. It was then that Iem did some research and ultimately chose the Sky Shifting Sect for us to join."

Iem nodded.

"Exactly. As to why I selected the Sky Shifting Sect, it was because it didn't specialize at anything. It is a Sect that accepts all types of cultivators and demon beasts. It was perfect since Krune and I are good at practically anything. Of course, as a True Spirit, Krune is not as good as me with close combat."

Krune didn't even make an effort to deny that. After all, it was true that he is a lot weaker at close quarters. Some of his best abilities are made just so that he can keep his distance from others.

Franlia, of course, had a hard time believing that. Still, it was true that their presence had brought great rewards to her sect just a moment ago. If not for those two, her teams would definitely not have found about the Demon Beast's corpse. Not to mention that such two super geniuses being part of her sect might bring great things in the future. That being said, Franlia was conflicted about what she should do.

It was then that Rag touched her shoulder and used Divine Sense Message.

"I told you, didn't I? I can judge a cooker's character through their food. I'm not sure about that Iem boy, but Krune is definitely not the type who brings misfortune to others on purpose."

He wasn't wrong. Krune was really a nice guy... It's just that his own existence attracts misfortune... Still, not on purpose.

Franlia then sighed and nodded.

"Very well. I'll believe you two for the time being. So, how long do you intend to stay in the Sky Shifting Sect?"

That was the part where Krune and Iem differed from each other. Iem had no intention of leaving the Godly Path Realm while Krune did.

In Iem's case, the Sky Shifting Sect provides all his needs and will still do so for the next Realms, so he said.

"In my case, I probably won't go anywhere before the God Foundation Realm unless something happens. Of course, I will constantly leave the sect to do some explorations, missions, and things like that. But ultimately, I'm fine with you guys."

Franlia nodded, not finding it all that surprising. Her Sky Shifting Sect is a God Core Realm power. With Iem's Heavenly Race bloodline, he could definitely join a Nascent Soul Power in the future. They would be able to give him much better resources and knowledge, after all.

"What about Krune?"

Krune pondered a bit before saying.

"At the moment, I'm not sure how long I'll stay. I have been working on a few things that might lead to my leave. However, I will probably stay here until the Divinity Realm level at the very least."

Tulike couldn't help but ask.

"Why only Divinity Realm? Our Sky Shifting Sect might not be as good as a Nascent God Realm power, but we should be able to provide you everything you need until the Mortal Rejection Realm. Besides, we already know a lot of you but decided to not pry into it any further. Isn't it better to stay with us?"

Krune shook his head.

"As I said, I'm not sure yet. If my plans don't go as expected, then I'm obviously staying. Don't worry, I'm not leaving so that I can join another power in the Godly Path Realm. I have my own reasons. Still, I will tell you if I really need to leave or not in the future. At the moment, I'm not sure of anything."

Krune still had to go to Zule's Creator's Space to get the Condensed Space Fragment. He can only enter that place after reaching the Divinity Realm as well. However, he still isn't sure if he will go there as soon as he enters the Divinity Realm or not. It might be better to wait until he reaches the middle or late stages of it first.

Franlia nodded as she could see that Krune had a lot of doubts himself.

"Very well. Anyway, let's eat. Otherwise, my husband will get mad at us."

Rag laughed but didn't deny that.

Later that night, Franlia told Krune that she would need a week until she got all the items to remove the Memory Seals from Nina and Lino. Krune was happy to hear that, so he went to pay a visit to those two in the city again.

"Yo, you two seem quite bored."

Nina and Lino immediately noticed his presence.

"Master!"

"Chef Krune!"

They approached the protection formation to get a close look at him.

"Master, are you alright? You disappeared for a whole week. You didn't try to do anything dangerous just because of us, right?!"

Nina had been concerned about Krune all this while. After all, what would be necessary to take them out of this place? Krune said that what he was going to do involved some risks, so she couldn't be blamed. Not to mention that she likes Krune as more than just being a Master.

"Hahaha! Well, it was quite dangerous. Still, your Master here is a strong fellow. Anyway, the fact is that I accomplished the Sect's Mission and got the necessary items to remove your Memory Seals. Now, everything will be fine. You just need to wait a week while all the procedures are prepared."

"Master..."

Nina's eyes got teary once more. Still, she quickly wiped them away.

"Thank you, Master. I will definitely repay this favor one day."

Lino quickly bowed as well.

"Me too, Chef Krune. I'll be there for your every call from now on."

Krune scratched the back of his head as he waved his other hand at them.

"Alright, alright. You can stop with that already. Nina is still okay, but seeing the rebellious Lino action like that towards me is kinda weird."

Lino's mouth twitched as Nina burst out in laugher.

"Hahaha! It's so true!"

Lino then looked away and pretended he didn't care.

'Hmph! I still think you are not worthy of my sister.'

Krune then talked with them for a while longer and then returned to his restaurant. After that, he made sure everything was closed and went to his room. There, Luvile released his Put Tribulation Lightning Layer, making sure that no one in the Godly Path Realm would be able to spy on them. Only then did Krune return to his Wisp Form once more.

"Phew... finally some time for myself."

Luvile nodded.

"You have been running everywhere recently. First, let your body... errr... Wisp Core relax. Just lay down and let your foundation lose. It is better if you don't do anything for the next day. There is no need to think about anything complex, either. Tomorrow, you can start contemplating such things again."

Krune agreed with Luvile. Wisps don't need to sleep. However, Krune was indeed quite mentally exhausted. To help alleviate his tension, he decided to take out the small tower of his foundation. Sure enough, it had already recharged all its energy and could connect to the Mortal Realm once more.

Krune was then able to contact Feifei on the other side.

"Krune!"

"Yo, Feifei, is everything okay?"

Feifei let out a sigh of relief as she complained.

"Okay your head! You took a lot longer than a month to call this time. I thought something had happened to you."

Krune laughed after hearing her concerns.

"Hahaha! Don't worry, I was just busy with a few missions of the sect. I told you that it could happen before, didn't I?"

Feifei couldn't help but nod.

"Yes... Still..."

Krune smiled as he stopped her there.

"Relax, I'm fine. So, how is everyone?"

Just like that, the two love doves began a long talk.
