Is that a Wisp?

Krune looked at Feifei, who nodded at him.

"Alright."

He then went back to his wisp form, colorful as ever.

Milia looked at him and couldn't help but comment.

"It really is a wisp, but why so colorful?"

Krune then said that it was because of his Elemental Core... or so he thought.

While Milia was talking with Krune in his wisp form, Lucio came back to the Sect. Since Krune's friends were all inside the Divine Path Sect Territory, it wasn't difficult for him to locate them.

Lucio then left everyone in Krune's house and came back to tell him. When he arrived, he saw that Milia was too. Milia also noticed him and smiled.

"Hey, if it isn't Lucio. It's been some time."

Lucio felt a little gloomy but didn't show it on his face.

"Indeed. I see that you got quite an interest in my disciple. How is it? Do you think he is good enough? I don't want to brag, but he is this old man's disciple, so you definitely won't find anyone better out there."

Krune was surprised by this sudden praise from his Master. But then he remembered what Feifei told him about Lucio and Wang Xin's past.

'I see, it's because of her.'

Milia then put a serious expression and said.

"He's not too bad, I guess. Although I can't understand why Feifei chose him, Love is not something that can be understood with words to start with."

Lucio heard that and couldn't help but agree with her. Even today, he is still unmarried because of what happened between him, Xin, and Milia.

"Indeed, that's not something that can be explained."

Lucio then looked at Krune.

"I brought all of them back and left them waiting in your home, so you should go back there now. Remember what and what not to say."

"Alright, Master."

Krune then disappeared from the room and went back.

Milia looked at Feifei and asked.

"Feifei, what about your choice of who you will bring with you?"

Feifei looked at her mother.

"I already know who to bring with me."

Back at Krune's residence, everyone was waiting with puzzled faces. Out of nowhere, the Sect master appeared right in front of them. He didn't say anything and immediately grabbed everyone before bringing them back to Krune's house. Fortunately, neither one was busy or doing anything important at that moment.

When Krune arrived, Ao, Yusa, Shinja, and Arlan looked at him. Also, the wisps, Ruik, Lizard Dragons, Ula, Lakin, Lofa, Tasier, and the rest were already waiting there. There was only one thing that was certain, the reason had to do with Krune.

Krune was already back to his human form. He then looked at everyone and said.

"I asked Master to call everyone back because an opportunity appeared. So I'll be leaving for a long time, and we won't be able to see each other anytime soon."

Krune then explained the situation while omitting what should be left out.

Immediately, everyone was taken aback.

"Where are you going?"

Krune shook his head.

"I can't say because it's a secret of the Sect. I agreed to not disclose any information about that place. All you need to know is that it's an excellent opportunity for me. Although I won't be able to see you for hundreds or maybe thousands of years, know that I will do my best to come back as soon as possible."

Lakin couldn't help but comment.

"But Master, without you, what will happen with the wisps here in the Sect?"

Krune only laughed at that question.

"Don't worry, I'm still a disciple of the Sect, so my residence and subordinates will keep being mine. You can stay here until the next Sect Entrance Exam and try to join it on your own."

Lakin then made another question.

"Can I go with you?"

Krune immediately shook his head.

"Can't do, you are the one who will be responsible for the wisps from now on, so you have to stay to take care of them."

Ao then asked.

"What about us? It's not like we are being held here anyway. I can talk with Master, and he probably will agree if I say that this is something prepared by the Sect Master."

Krune shook his head again.

"I can't bring you all with me either. Otherwise, I would definitely do so. Master only allowed me to bring a single person or demon beast, nothing more."

Everyone then looked at Krune, disappointed.

Krune then laughed and said.

"Anyway, I wanted to spend the rest of the day with everyone and cook to you all. So there is no deed for any gloomy farewells. As I said, this is an excellent opportunity, I'm not going to be sacrificed or anything like that. By the time I come back, I will probably have left you far behind in cultivation. Haha!"

Yusa snorted at that comment.

"Do you think we have been playing outside? I admit that you might have higher cultivation, but I will make sure it won't last for long."

Shinja and the others laughed at that. They, too, are confident in their future prospects.

Krune nodded and then went to cook. Lofa, as always, helped him this time too. It would be a lie if she said that she wasn't sad, but she already decided to leave things behind. So she was really just helping with the food.

Suddenly, Krune's eyes got sharp, and he looked to the ceiling.

"Old geezer, what do you want to eat? I'm feeling generous today, so I will make whatever you want."

A second later, Lucio appeared inside the room with surprise written on his face.

"How did you know that I was there?"

Krune laughed and said.

"I didn't, I just presumed. Sure enough, you fell right into it. Hahahaha! For once, I got you, and it was just before my leaving. Now I can say that I have no regrets."

Lucio felt gloomy when he heard that. Truth is, he didn't want to separate from Krune, his life had been a lot funnier with him around, after all. Of course, he would never admit it in front of Krune.

Lucio then looked at everyone in the room.

"I hope that all of you can keep it a secret that Krune is leaving. He trusts you all, so make sure to live up to his expectations. Sooner or later, people will notice that he left. Still, if anyone asks, just say that you also haven't seen him or whatever good excuse you can think of."

"Yes, Sect Master."

Lucio nodded, satisfied.

He then looked back at Krune.

"I want Dragon Pork Ribs."

Krune smiled and nodded.

Soon, everyone asked for the things they wanted too, which made Krune very occupied for the time being.

There was another thing that surprised him. Feifei had come with her mother and father to pay a visit. Krune, of course, cooked what they asked too.

When Milia ate Krune's food, she was taken aback. She didn't expect that food made with ordinary items could be that good! She couldn't help but give a nod of approval.

'At least my Feifei won't starve out there.'

Lofa noticed the new arrivals and immediately understood who they were. It was way too obvious since Feifei was basically a younger version of the woman. Their similarity was all over there for everyone to see!

'Wasn't Krune and Feifei's relationship a secret? How come Feifei's parents are here already?'

She wasn't the only one with that question in mind. Yusa couldn't hold anymore and asked Krune directly through a Divine Sense message.

"Oh, that? It goes like this..."

Krune then explained what happened while omitting the critical parts. When Yusa finished hearing, she thought that Krune was making fun of her. The Krune that she knows would never be this straight forward! Still, the proof was right in front of her eyes. So she could only accept and then tell the others through a Divine Sense message.

Immediately, everyone looked at Krune as if he was someone else. How come that low EQ wisp thought about something like that?

Yusa couldn't help but speak emotionally.

"Our little wisp is growing up."

Quite a few of them nodded after that comment.

But for some reason, Krune didn't feel like it was a compliment.

'What the hell are they talking about?'

By the end of the day, Feifei left with her parents.

The rest then looked at Krune with curiosity. There was one thing that Krune hadn't told them yet.

"Just who are you bringing with you?"

Suddenly, the entire room became silent.

Everyone had the same thought. They wanted to see this place that Krune was going and check how good it is. Of course, they wouldn't mind whichever Krune's decision is. In fact, almost everyone was looking forward to that. 'Maybe it would be me,' some thought. Still, they at least wanted to know who Krune would bring together.

Yes... everyone wanted to know... with a single exception.

"Rooooooonk... rooooooonk..."

Because of the silence in the room, a particular Double-Headed Snake's snore could be heard now in one corner of the place.

"Boom!"

Out of nowhere, Krune gave a Kick on it and sent that snake flying!

"Crash!"

Ruik then hit the wall, which immediately crumbled over him!

"Who the hell kicked this grandfather? Show yourself!"

But a second later, he noticed the guy with one of his legs raised.

"You... What's the meaning of this? I was having a great dream, you know? Also, I can't go without my afternoon nap."

Krune smiled and then started to touch Ruik's head. Ruik, of course, got even angrier.

"Do I look like a pet to you?"

Krune didn't mind, though.

"You know, our rainbow sect can't do with a weak Sect Master. So I thought that this would be a great opportunity for your training. Until the day we are back, Lakin can take care of everything. I have full trust in his abilities, after all."

Ruik immediately got a sense of foreboding. For some reason, he felt like his naps and sleeping time would go down by a lot!

"What are you talking about?"

Krune ignored him and looked at everyone else.

"What do you guys think?"

Lakin was the very first to answer.

"This is a great idea, Master! Ruik should be the one to go and experience all the dangers to temper himself. He is totally the type who would love it!"

Yusa was next.

"Indeed, there is no better choice in this world. With Ruik's enthusiasm for cultivation and training, it might be the perfect opportunity."

Then came Arlan, Shinja, Cassy, Dier, Juji, and everyone else. Every single one talked about how Ruik 'loves' training, cultivation, dangers, and all of that. That made Ruik himself think that perhaps there is another person or demon beast called Ruik in the room.

Ruik's feeling that something was not right kept increasing. What danger? What temper myself? What great opportunity? Love for cultivation? What is that? I just want to sleep!

Krune then smiled brightly!

"Right?! I also think that it is true. It's decided then, the one following me this time around is Ruik! We are going to cultivate and train like there is no tomorrow, a lot of sweat and effort await for us!"

Only now did Ruik remember about the one slot available to follow Krune into the 'opportunity.'

"Well... fuck!"
