Death... and me

"What the hell is this Fausec Country? The Wringan Continent has just started to receive humans from all over the world. There should be no such thing as a country," Rean obviously voiced out his thoughts.

The Foundation Establishment guy immediately became nervous as he explained, "Sir, this was something decided by the humans who first arrived in this country. They gathered together and founded the country under the Fausec Tribe's flag. Any human cultivator at the Energy Gathering Realm or above who decides to join them can have a state for themselves inside the cities."

Rean's expression became even darker after that. It was then that Rean remembered something. "Wait! Could this Fausec Tribe be a group from those sealed human regions?"

Back when Rean's group arrived on the planet, they heard of areas where humans were thrown inside to survive on their own. According to Frandin, those regions didn't really have rulers since the Zasfins would get rid of any human cultivator that got too strong. They considered heading there to hide but gave up in the end. That was a lawless territory, or so they heard. Later, they understood that those regions were the places where the Zasfins got their sacrifices for the Soul Marks.

"Oh! Could it be that sir also came from one of those territories?" The guy immediately smiled as he said that.

Rean shook his head as he replied, "No. However, now I understand why such a thing would happen. For you guys, what mattered the most was to survive at any cost. Those were the rules the Zasfins created for those areas in the past. Now that you're free, you'll obviously use the chance to take control of as many things as possible."

The problem was that this was a delicate moment for the human race. Instead of trying to take advantage of their higher cultivation, they should instead help out as many as possible. After all, the clock for the human race was ticking. Once the agreement of non-aggression on Wringan Continent is over, the humans would need to rely on themselves to resist any possible attack from the Zasfins or even the demon beasts.

The guy in front of Rean didn't deny that. "True. If you're strong, you're entitled to more. Isn't that obvious?"

Suddenly, Rean received a Spiritual Sense Message from Govin, the only other Nascent Soul Realm in his group, telling them, 'We found a tower on the east side of the city. If we protect it with some formations and build the communication system here, it should prove quite efficient.'

Rean sighed as he looked behind at the huge queue waiting to enter. Obviously, they could only go inside the city after someone leaves. Otherwise, they couldn't enter. That rule wouldn't apply to him since he could simply fly above the city wall. Rean pondered a bit in silence if he should intervene to allow more people into the abandoned Zasfin city. However, he shook his head and didn't do anything, thinking to himself, 'If Roan was here, I'm sure he would tell me not to do anything.'

Rean was right. Roan would simply think that even if he helped put more people in the empty states, that wouldn't change the general situation. After all, even if one counted the old Zasfin clan estates in the city, the fact was that the town was already more than 90% full. What difference would it make?

'Still, I better pay a visit to this Fausec Tribe ruler and check what he intends to do. This Fausec Country would also take our Freedom Island as part of it, after all.' Rean also noticed something else. 'Since it's already like this here, the rest of the continent is probably going through the same situation.'

Rean was right. Although this 'Fausec Country' was one of the firsts, quite a few more were appearing in other parts of the continent. After all, not only the humans from the sealed regions were brought here, but the humans who lived in the Demon Beast Continent as well. One must remember that Freedom City didn't become a battleground for land acquisition because the Freedom Sect intervened. Otherwise, similar things would have happened there as well.

Without saying anything, Rean took flight once again and passed over the city wall. The chief guard of the gate obviously didn't dare to complain after seeing that. He knew that for Rean to be able to fly, he was at least in the Core and Soul Fusion Realm. Rean wasn't someone he could afford to offend. Instead, he turned around and gave another order to one of his subordinates, saying, "Go to Lord Kimi's estate and tell him what happened."

The subordinate quickly nodded and left straight away.

With Rean's speed, he arrived at the tower mentioned by Govin very fast. However, Govin's group wasn't inside. Instead, they were waiting in front of it while they kept the sect's airship flying far above the city with the rest of the disciples.

"What is it? Is there someone inside?"

Qia shook her head, explaining, "We're not sure. It's just that someone used an Anti-Spiritual Sense Formation around it. We can't tell what's inside unless we force it."

When Qia said 'force,' Rean understood that she wasn't talking about barging inside. Instead, the level of formations wasn't anything that high. Because of that, as long as Qia or anyone at the same or above her level forced their Spiritual Sense, they would be able to pierce through it.

"I understand..." Rean then looked behind him and saw hundreds of eyes focused on his group, asking, "By the way, couldn't you be a little more discrete? Since you came down flying, you obviously caught all the attention from the people around the area."

Dian scratched the back of his head in response. "Well...it's just that we aren't used to doing that in the Demon Beast Continent, so we didn't think too much when we arrived."

Rean's group then discussed their next steps for a few minutes when suddenly, they heard some commotion heading in their direction. "Get out of the way! Get out of the way!" Not long after that, a few cultivators who seemed to be using similar clothes appeared there, one of them being surprisingly in the Core and Soul Fusion Realm.

Of course, Rean's group didn't mind it much, with Rean asking, "Do they want something?"
