Death... and me

Chapter 2225 Not The Best Arrival

*Gaps, gaps, gaps...*

Rean stood on the top of a hill on one of the Floating Islands while he looked at the quite injured Kentucky and Lily-Yu. "T-That's what... *gasp...* you get by overestimating yourselves."

Kentucky and Lily's Domains were neutralized, so they lost quite some advantage. When Rean went all out, he was able to just JUST barely come out on top.

Kentucky and Lily were lying on the ground, slashes all over their bodies, while many of their feathers and scales were nowhere to be seen. If they didn't look ugly before, they definitely did now. Well, looking at Rean, they were at least satisfied they made him suffer almost as much as themselves. "That was your fault. How dare you say we look like each other? Who does look like that thing?"

Well, it wasn't a true Life and Death battle. None of the three tried to deliver killing blows, although they were very close to doing it. Nonetheless, they used all their Divine Origin Energies, so they were completely spent.

Roan then landed in between the three, asking. "That was a good show and all, but shall we stop it here? You can just pretend you have never seen each other before. How about that?"

"Hmph!" Lily then struggled to get up as she didn't know how to use Rean's Instant Recovery. "Forget it. I don't care anymore."

She then looked at Werin. "Werin-Ou, who are these humans? Why are they here with you and Ken-Ae?"

Werin shrugged his shoulders. "What else? They are my guests. I met them during my travel after the events in the Ruins of the Stars. They were traveling with Ken-Ae, so I convinced them to come and see the Minokawa's territory. You know it is. We Minokawas have to stay united, right?"

Lily narrowed her eyes as she looked at Kentucky. She truly couldn't remember any Minokawa by the name of Ken-Ae at all. But then again, Kentucky had the same cultivation as her, so he must truly be around the same age. If it had been that long ago they saw each other, then perhaps she just couldn't remember. "It is not uncommon for us to bring a few guests now and then, so I won't say anything. Just don't forget that you can't bring them to our Nests. Also, the geezers probably noticed you came back, so you should go and see them first."

Werin sighed and nodded. "I'll do it in a moment."

Rean then approached Lily, much to her suspicion. "What do you want?"

"Sigh..." Rean shook his head. "It was my bad. I shouldn't have laughed at you. Only now I see just how beautiful Female Minokawa, you really are. I was just blind a moment ago." Well, truth be told, Rean still couldn't see much difference between Kentucky and Lily. Not that he would tell her that now. Besides, since all Minokawas had similar personalities...

"Oh!" Lily's mood did a full turn as her prideful countenance returned in a flash. "Finally, you understand! Alright, alright. I forgive you."

'So easy...' Rean couldn't help but say. 'She is truly a copy of Kentucky...'

"Ahem... let me give you a little help." Rean then touched Lily's body.

'Life Style, Instant Recovery!'

Because Lily's cultivation was the same as Rean and Kentucky, the Instant Recovery took a few minutes to fully heal her body. After all, she was also many times bigger than Rean in her Minokawa form. 

"This..." Still, she had never seen such an effective healing skill before, especially since she could tell Rean used Light Element. "It's like I got no damage whatsoever. Such an amazing healing skill."

Rean nodded. "Thank you. I worked very, very hard to create it. Truly hundreds of years of training." 

Kentucky's mouth twitched. He knows very well Rean took just a few months when he was still a teenager to create that skill, and it hasn't changed up to this day. But then again, it was better to not let others know about it.

Kentucky then flew to their side, which obviously annoyed Lily a little. "What? Are you here to apologize as well?"

"Me? Apologize? Hmph!" That was the last thing Kentucky was going to do. "You called me fat, so you should apologize first."

"Alright, that's enough," said Werin. "Ken-Ae is obviously not fat. Also, Lily-Yu obviously has no unsymmetric wings. If you start fighting here again, you will end up destroying a few more of the Floating Islands. I can guarantee the elders will get annoyed by the disturbance and will come here to punish you two. Is that what you want?"

"No..." Kentucky and Lily dropped their heads.

Werin was satisfied with the answer. "Alright, I'm going back to the Nests to check on the geezers. I'm sure they want to know more about what happened in the Ruins of the Stars. Lily, you take them to my and Pulanli's house. Since I don't live in the Nests, it won't cause any trouble."

"Why me?!" Lily didn't like that. She was also a Lazy Minokawa, so any extra job was not but a burden.

"Weren't you the one who came here to tell me to go see the geezers? Take responsibility and guide my guests. I'll be there in a few hours. Besides, it is true that you were the first one to call Ken-Ae fat, so it was your fault this fight started. Am I wrong?" Werin asked back.

Before she could complain, Werin added. "Also, if you don't do that, I will tell the geezers the destruction in this place was your fault alone too."

Lily immediately straightened up. "Don't worry, brother Werin-Ou! I'm the best guide in the entire Minokawas Territory!" In the Minokawas Race, there wasn't a single Minokawa that didn't fear the Space-Time Realm older Minokawas. She would be seen as someone who disturbed the geezers' lazy day, and punishment would be harsh!

Werin then looked at the twins before using his Divine Sense. 'I can't ignore the geezers' call, so I'm going. Don't worry, I'll be back as soon as possible. No one here should know about you guys, so it should be fine too.'

Rean, Roan, Luan, and Kentucky nodded. 'Alright, we will wait for you at your home.'
