Chapter 2265 Attract Trouble
"Young lady, young lady, please wake up..."
Viviane slowly began to recover her consciousness as that familiar voice entered her ears. She could also few a warmth sensation all over her body fading rapidly.
"Young lady, we need to go. Wake up."
For a moment, she struggled to understand what was happening when suddenly, she opened her eyes and quickly used her Divine Sense to ascertain the situation. "Get away from me!"
She immediately distanced herself from everyone as she looked around. Old Worm was right there while the majority of the subordinates who followed her for this assault were still unconscious. However, she could see a middle-aged man using some technique in each one of them. Not long after, the ones the middle-aged man treated awoke as well. "This... Jakiro, what is happening?"
Naturally, she recognized the man. It was Rean, or Yean, for this moment. That was the appearance he had been using so far. As for Roan, he just stayed on the side while also using a different appearance. Since he showed himself some time ago, simply disappearing now wouldn't make much of a difference.
Rean finished using his Instant Recovery Skill on another cultivator when he looked at Viviane with a smile. "Oh, you woke up faster than I thought. Are you feeling okay? My friend here gave you all quite a hit with his Divine Energy Pressure."
Viviane quickly went behind Old Worm. "Jakiro?"
Old Worm sighed before explaining. "Young Lady, you truly have no eyes for experts. Yean, Tuck, and that other man who was inside their Pocket Dimensional Realm are all in the Elemental Space Realm. Simply put, they are no weaker than your father. Can you imagine the type of trouble you put us all in?"
"What?!" Viviane was taken aback. "Impossible! How could they be in the Elemental Space Realm? I felt it! They were in the Void Tempering Realm!"
Rean shook his head. "You still need to experience more of the world. Both me and Tuck were simply suppressing our cultivations. Look at how surprised you are. It's exactly because we don't want everyone to treat us like that that we keep our cultivation suppressed wherever we go. I mean... little girl, you aren't very bright, are you?"
Viviane obviously didn't like how Rean treated her like a child. Yet, if Old Worm was right and those three are really Elemental Space Realm cultivators, then she could not disrespect them anymore. "W-What do you want?"
Rean finally healed the last person Roan took down before clapping his hands. "Don't worry. We are not the type that bullies the weak for no reason. What we want is to have a conversation with your father. I heard Lord Eagon is still at home, right? How about you guide us there?"
Viviane looked at Old Worm and used a Divine Sense message. 'What happened while I was unconscious? Why didn't they kill us? They totally had a reason. We were trying to rob them!'
Old Worm bitterly smiled. 'You were just lucky. They are ascenders, just like me. In the end, I talked things through so that they wouldn't kill us. However, that also means I'm going to follow them from now on, so they want to buy my contract.'
'Buy your contract?' Her eyes immediately lit up as she looked at Rean. "Oh, so you want this guy's contract. No problem, no problem! It will only cost you a hundred Rank Seven Divine Stones."
Suddenly, a powerful Divine Energy pressure assaulted Viviane, forcing her to kneel down. Terror filled her face as she quickly corrected herself. "Please, forgive me! No Divine Stones, no Divine Stones! I will tell my father to give him to you for free!"
The one who did that was Roan, who didn't quite like how Viviane instantly decided to treat Old Worm, his only master, as an item for sale. "Girl, you better stay quiet from now on. Otherwise, I'll make sure you won't be able to open your mouth anymore."
*Clap, clap!*
"Alright, that's enough, Koan. We want to do things right, so don't bully her," said Rean. He quite liked that, though. It wasn't easy to see Roan getting angry for someone else.
Viviane nodded vigorously and used her Divine Sense to talk to Old Worm. Finally, Rean told her she could talk but to refrain from doing it too much. "Well, shall we go?"
Kentucky, Roan, and Rean then used their Divine Energies to envelope Old Worm, Viviane, and the rest of their group before flashing away. This time, they didn't hold back as they flew at full speed back to the Jikli Clan. In just a few minutes, they were already right in front of the Clan.
"Okay, we are here," Rean pointed out. "However, the formations protecting this place are quite good, so I would rather not enter the Clan Buildings' area. Viviane, you go in and call your father out. I can do it myself by simply releasing my Divine Sense, but I don't want to be seen as an enemy."
Viviane sighed in relief. "Yes, senior. Sorry for causing you trouble." Without thinking twice, Viviane shot into the Clan and disappeared in the distance. Rean also released the other Void Tempering Realm subordinates and allowed them to go.
Rean's group then just sat atop a boulder and did some meaningless chatting while they waited... Well, only Kentucky and Rean did that since Roan and Old Worm continued to be the mutes they always were. Not long after, their Divine Sense Bending Skill caught the presence of another Elemental Space Realm cultivation, moving in their direction.
There wasn't only one, though. Instead, there were three of them. Rean and Roan weren't surprised. It would be weird if Viviane's father came out alone while there were three people at the same level as him waiting outside. The other two were also elders of the Clan, with one being at the Late Stage and the other at the Middle.
Eagon also noticed the twins' and Kentucky's real? cultivation and couldn't help but sigh. "Just why is that girl so prone to attract trouble..."
