Death… and me

Chapter 1365 - Fake Deal



Chapter 1365 – Fake Deal

However, some of them immediately recognized Rean’s group, especially the lizard on his shoulder. They were the Croste Clan, Lanqueas Sect, Didatido Sect, Jix Organization, and Dragon Tail Brotherhood. Well, in the case of the Dragon Tail Brotherhood, they didn’t know about Rean’s group having tamed the ancient beast. They simply thought the lizard on Rean’s shoulder was very similar to the one they found back in the second level.

Of course, the elder of the Dragon Tail Brotherhood immediately understood that the small armored lizard was definitely the same one. The enormous black hole in his natural spatial perception around the armored lizard was way too easy to notice. “We’re leaving. Now.”

Without giving any explanation, that elder of the Dragon Tail Brotherhood immediately retreated with the other disciples from the brotherhood. Of course, he at least explained to his own groups that what they were seeing was an ancient beast, and it was better if they stayed as far away as possible from it.

Even the groups that didn’t know about Rean and the others also narrowed their eyes as they took a few steps back. Although not every group had a Void Tempering Realm elder following them, at least half of them did. Naturally, they could also see the terrifying creature in front of their eyes due to their natural spatial perception.

It was then that Gigo, the one that Rean’s group met earlier, came forward to talk and asked, “Who are you?”

Rean looked at Gigo and couldn’t help but smile in response. “Oh! It’s our friend from earlier. Thank you for the four Second Stage Turtle Marks. We can now make good use of them.”

The groups who were ready to escape were surprised to hear that. Didn’t that mean Rean’s group had already killed four members of the Didatido Sect? After all, the third level worked by stealing marks from others to receive the recognition of their beast guardian.

Gigo didn’t get angry from that, though. “As long as I still have mine, I don’t care. However, you still haven’t answered my question. Do you know what it means to meddle with the top ten powers’ Lost Star Selection?”

Rean shrugged his shoulders after hearing that, telling them, “Fortunately, we have the strength to do that. In any case, if no one wants to do anything, we’re leaving.”

However, Gigo smiled when he heard that. “As I thought. No one would refrain from using the power of such a strong ancient beast. This ancient beast in your shoulders can’t attack anyone, right? Otherwise, there’s absolutely no way I could have escaped last time. It can only protect you.”

Rean didn’t mind nodding since he already expected Gigo to figure out the problem. It simply didn’t make sense that Rean’s group landed the killing blows when such a strong ancient beast was part of his group. “That’s correct. We made an agreement with Sally here, and she now needs to protect us until her services aren’t necessary anymore.” Of course, Rean wouldn’t tell them that Sally would only protect them in the Lost Star Realm. After all, letting them think whatever they wanted was to their advantage.

That’s the part that interested Gigo and the members of his Didatido Sect. It’s just that they would have rather been alone with Rean’s group at this moment instead of having so many people watching the conversation. Now that Gigo had confirmed it, his elder immediately took over the conversation. “I’m Colirano from the Didatido Sect. Gigo told me what happened, and we’re obviously very curious. How did you make this ancient beast help you? No one had ever done that before. If you tell us the secret, I can give my word as an elder of the Didatido Sect that no one will cause you harm, even after exiting the Lost Star Realm.”

Hurio, Lilia, and Kentucky felt like laughing now. Secret? What secret? It was nothing more than sheer luck. Of course, they wouldn’t tell them that. Hurio then took the opportunity to refuse the offer. “You can’t really expec-“

However, it was at this moment that Rean shut him up, telling everyone else, “The secret to tame an ancient beast, right? To be honest, it isn’t too much of a secret. First, let me introduce myself. My name is Zack Juni, and this person by my side is Zeck Juni. We are cultivators from Jhiod Continent. As for the other two, they’re our subordinates.”

Roan’s mouth twitched after hearing that. Who the hell was Zeck Juni? Hurio and Lilia also didn’t feel very happy to be called subordinates. Well, Rean was obviously up to something, so they didn’t say anything at the moment.

“Jhiod Continent?!” Obviously, the elders from those top ten powers knew about that place. It was the continent that was supposed to be connected with one of the strong races in the Realm of Gods itself. “Can you prove that?” Of course, Colirano didn’t believe that straight away.

Rean then pointed at the Star Armored Salamander on his shoulder and replied, “This should be more than enough proof on our status, no? I’ve done my homework. Your Lanqueas Continent had access to this place for tens of thousands of years. However, you still weren’t able to tame a single ancient beast. In contrast, a Saint Realm cultivator like me did just that.”

Of course, just that still made it hard to believe. It’s just that whether Rean… or Zack was really part of Jhiod or not didn’t matter. What mattered was that it would at least explain why he did have his way to tame the ancient beast. That’s what Colirano and the rest cared about.

Rean continued, “I don’t mind telling you the secret to tame the ancient beasts. No, to be more specific, you would make an agreement with them. Anyways, if you really want to learn the technique, you’ll have to pay for it.”

In response to his words, an elder of the Krui Clan couldn’t help but snort, saying, “Hmph! And would you tell us the truth after we pay for the information? If that’s the case, you’ll have to sign a Soul Binding Contract, stating that whatever you said was the truth and that you would die if you lied about the information.”

Roan immediately understood Rean’s plan, saying through their Soul Connection, ‘Not too bad.’

Rean smiled in response as he looked at that elder. “No problem. I can sign it straight away.”

Naturally, everyone was taken aback by Rean’s words. “If… if you really sign the contract, we’re willing to pay for this information.” Using a Soul Binding Contract made everything different. There was no way to lie, especially if death was the outcome of breaking the contract.

Rean’s smile widened after hearing that. “Great! Then, let me talk about my price. First, you have to tell me everything I need to be one of the selected people to enter the second plane that’s filled with Divine Origin Energy. Second, the truth is that we didn’t come here for that place. Instead, we came looking for Freezing Star Liquid. It’s quite unfortunate that we didn’t have enough Divine Stones to buy during the auction outside. With that, we entered this realm so that we could get it.. If you can give us two vials of Freezing Star Liquid, we can sign the contract right now.”
