Death... and me

At the same time, Roan mentioned as he was also watching the clash. it's just that he used their Soul Connection for that. 'You also used World Essence on our weapons. Doesn't that mean they're even stronger?'

Rean nodded, telling Roan, 'Forget about being two stages stronger than average cultivators in the center of Realm of Gods. With my Black Star and your White Scythe, I wouldn't be surprised if we could jump an entire realm to fight now.'

Roan shook his head, saying in response, 'Don't forget what Philip said. That's only considering average cultivators at the center of the Realm of Gods. Do you think any of the Jamai Sect disciples are average cultivators, demon beasts, and spirits?'

Rean bitterly smiled after hearing that. 'No... but we can check it with Luina.'

With that in mind, Rean asked Luina, "Hey, with my new flying stars, how much stronger than the average cultivator are you at the moment? Of course, I'm talking about average cultivators at the center of the Realm of Gods."

"Eh?!" Luina was taken aback. "Hmm... I'm not sure since I've never had the chance to fight those outside my circle of influence. Everyone I fought until today was those from the Jamai Sect or similar powers. Though, I have asked my mother before about it. Now that I have your flying stars, I believe I would be something around three stages stronger than average cultivators at the same cultivation level."

Rean and Roan looked at each other after that. "That means Roan and I would just be one stage stronger than you if we fought each other, huh?"

Luina shook her head, saying, "Not really. After all, we're only talking about raw strength. If I were to fight one of you while having exactly the same strength, I would definitely lose. The difference in experience is just too big."

Roan agreed with Luina. "Indeed. However, we were talking about raw strength, not combat experience. You said that you're one of the top disciples in the Jamai Sect. It's just that your cultivation is still in the Initial Stage of the Space Bending Realm." Roan then took out his White Scythe before pointing at Luina, telling her, "Suppress your cultivation to the Initial Stage of the Void Tempering Realm and fight me. Let's see if my experience is enough to jump at least two stages against geniuses of the center of the Realm of Gods."

Luina pondered over it for a bit before she had an idea. "Sure, but you have to do one thing for me after that."

"What is that?" Roan asked, puzzled.

"I want you to consider having me as your woman if I win," replied Luina. She still liked Roan, and she hadn't given up yet.

"My woman?" Roan was confused. "Do you mean you want to become a slave?" Sure enough, Roan was still as dense as ever towards this kind of stuff.

Luina almost vomited blood! "Who the hell wants to be your slave?! I'm talking about a romance, marriage, having kids, and living together! How oblivious can you get?" Luina had a lot of time to think after reincarnating in the Realm of Gods. One of the things she decided way before she met Roan was that she wouldn't hold back anymore. If she ever got the chance, she would take the initiative and ignore all opinions.

Roan was taken aback. However, he shook his head right after. "I have Calina, so that won't happen."

Luina obviously knew that, saying, "Sure. However, you don't even know if she's alive. No, to be more specific, chances are that she's dead. In that case, there should be no problem in taking me, right? I can guarantee that I can make you as happy as she did."

Roan narrowed his eyes in response. "It has nothing to do with being able to make me happy or not. I just don't feel like I have this kind of feeling for you. As for Calina... let's just say she forced it out of me, grabbed it, and never let go," Roan said those words without hesitation. There was one good thing about being Roan in this kind of situation. He absolutely didn't see a reason to feel embarrassed to talk about his own feelings. If he felt that way, he would say it with his words in front of others' faces.

"Then I will force even more of you and catch it!" Luina answered back with a smile. "Trust me, I can be even more forceful than anyone else."

Roan sighed in response. "I think you're wasting your time."

Luina didn't agree. "It's never a waste of time to fight for the one you like. Anyway, what about my offer? Will you take me? It doesn't need to be now. I can wait until you confirm that she isn't out there anymore."

Hearing that, Roan pulled his scythe back, replying, "Then there's no need for this fight. Because I won't take you in regardless of what you say. If she really is dead, then I'll simply consider that I wasn't supposed to have someone to start with. First of all, I still can't believe I fell for it, so it might not be a bad thing to go back to being alone."

Rean couldn't help but intervene. "That's quite sad, you know? Sure, I understand how you feel. However, you shouldn't close your heart forever if things don't work out. I'm not saying that you should think about betraying Calina one day. I also don't intend to do it with Qia. It's just that there will probably come a day when your feelings will change if you find out that Calina is not around anymore. Would you say that you're still the same as when we first met? I truly doubt so."

Luina looked at Rean as her eyes glistened. 'Well said!' She thought.

Roan narrowed his eyes before taking his scythe out again. "Whatever. I will just keep the request in mind. Well, first of all, I only have to consider it if I lose. Now then, will I lose?"

Luina immediately took out the other ten flying stars Rean made for her. "You better not underestimate me." Immediately, Luina's flying stars began to turn ethereal. Surprisingly, she could also use the third stage of weapon intent!
