Chapter 2025 Dark Decaying Beads
Suddenly, a Divine Sense Message reached all the Devils and cultivators in the settlement. "Luman b.a.s.t.a.r.d, give my daughter back right now. Otherwise, don"t blame me for wiping out your pitful settlement!"
Rean, Roan, and Kentucky could definitely tell that Labina"s power was no less than Luman"s through the Divine Sense Bending Skill.
In any case, Luman didn"t seem to be bothered by Labina"s words at all. He simply smiled at the twins" group before saying. "I"m going out to have some fun. You can just stay here until I"m back." Luman"s body then flickered for a moment and completely disappeared.
Next time, Luman was already outside, facing Labina"s dark expression. "Hahaha! If this isn"t my good old friend Labina. Long time no see, uh? How is it? Did you miss me? I still have a s.p.a.ce in my bed, just for you. Are you happy to hear that? I"m sure you are. Come, let"s make a few more children. An experienced mother like you will definitely be a great bearer of my descendants."
Luman didn"t try to hide his words at all, reaching the ears of every single being in that place. Rean"s group didn"t know what to say. No wonder everyone called him Crazy Luman.
Even as a Devil, it was true that labina was still a beauty in her own right. She was part of one of the Devils with humanoid forms, and for some reason, that attracted Luman"s interest even more than Labina"s daughter. Well, that didn"t make Labina any happier.
Her expression turned even worse, and she just hadn"t attacked yet because she could tell that her daughter was within Luman"s grasp. "Cut the c.r.a.p! Give my daughter back if you know what is good for you. Different from you, I don"t have to care about protecting an entire settlement."
Luman sighed in response, obviously disappointed by her answer. "So you didn"t come here because of me? That hurts my heart, you know? I truly love you... and Camia, Grinda, Kanna, Suzume, Felviti, Qer"er..." Luman then continued to speak the names of many females who lived in his settlement nonstop.
Divine Energy began to come out of Labina"s Devil Core as she lost her patience. No, it was Divine Origin Energy. As mentioned in the past,
However, just as she was about to attack, Luman waved his hand. Right after, the figure of a female Devil appeared on his hand. Naturally, that was none other than Abelha, Labina"s daughter. She had a bitter smile on her face, knowing that she was being used as nothing more than a shield. Her Initial Stage Elemental s.p.a.ce cultivation had been sealed by Luman, so she could muster any power at all.
Labina"s display of power immediately stopped. Nonetheless, it didn"t mean she would drop her guard. "What do you want?"
Luman"s smile increased even further. "How about a night together?"
Labina did her best to not explode right there and then.
"I"m, joking, I"m, joking. Hahaha!" Luman laughed straight away before Labina truly gave up everything. "Although I absolutely wouldn"t mind trading some time with you, I know you can"t recognize just how great of a bed partner I am. So, let"s talk about something else. You have been in seclusion in that rotten coffin of yours for a while already. You should have refined enough of the Decaying Dark Element into Pure Decaying Beads. How about you give me five or so of them?"
Labina"s expression changed into one of surprise. "How did you know I was capable of refining Dark Decaying Beads?"
Luman shrugged his shoulders. "It wasn"t hard. Considering the way you cultivate and the fact you ended up in this Swamp of no Return, someone of your level must have come here prepared. For Devils like you, Dark Decaying Beads would be great items for the time you need to break through a bottleneck."
Still, Labina was confused about something. "You are a Living Being, from what I heard from my son a while ago. Dark Decaying Beads should be of no use to you at all."
Luman immediately shook his head. "That"s not true. There are many uses for a Dark Decaying Bead, even for a Living Being like me. As for what I intend to use them, that is obviously my problem." Luman then let out a perverted smile once again. "Of course, I still prefer to have one night with you. If you agree, then I will require no other payment whatsoever."
Labina felt like killing Luman straight away. However, she knew that he was just provoking her at this point. The problem, instead, was that the Dark Decaying Beads did indeed need a very long time to be refined, which was one of the reasons labina and her children stayed inside those coffins. She truly didn"t want to give Luman a single one of them, let alone five. But then again, Luman had her daughter, which was definitely more important to her.
Suddenly, Labina flipped her hand, and five pitch-black beads appeared on her hand. They all emanated pure Dark Element and Decaying power. Not only that, but they also had a faint sign of Divine Origin Energy.
As mentioned in the past, once you enter the s.p.a.ce Bending Realm, Divine Energy won"t be enough to cultivate anymore (Refer to chapter 1745). To grow any further, Divine Origin Energy was necessary. That was also one of the reasons why the time necessary to cultivate once in the s.p.a.ce Bending Realm and above increased several folds. One had to spend time converting the natural Divine Energy into Divine Origin Energy, and that took time.
Still, those Dark Decaying Beads had Divine Origin Energy in them, showing that Labina truly put great effort into refining them. They definitely would be a great a.s.set for the next time she needs to break through.
Nonetheless, she threw the five beads at Luman without thinking twice. "Here you go. Now, give my daughter back."
Luman excitedly caught the beads, quickly using his Divine Sense to confirm that they were the real deal. His eyes lit up right away. He then broke the seal in Abelha"s Devil Core and released her. Neither Labina nor Luman was much concerned that one of the sides would break their word. "It"s a pity I can"t have you, but I guess these beads will have to suffice."
"Hmph!" Labina immediately shrouded her daughter with her Divine Energy before examining her. Only after ascertaining that her daughter really wasn"t forced to have s.e.x with Luman did her expression ease slightly.
Truth be told, now that she knows Luman is a Living Being, she wanted his soul, which was at the same cultivation level as herself. That would be extremely beneficial to her and even more so to her kids. However, she and Luman had known each other for a very long time in this Swamp of No Return, so she knew it was impossible to kill him; even defeating him would be very complicated. In the end, she had to take the loss and put this matter on the back of her head. "Since it was my children who caused trouble in your territory, I won"t pursue this matter any further. I"m leaving now."
"B-But mother, what about those Living Beings that I need for my cultivation?" Librao couldn"t help but feel that it was a waste. Sure his mother could get an agreement with Luman in exchange for the twins" group.
"Shut up!" Labina wasn"t as blind as her son, though. "Luman is also a Living Being. Even if he truly decided to sacrifice those three, how much do you think he would ask for it? Living Beings are pretty much nonexistent in the Underworld, let alone Living Beings in this Swamp. Next time, make sure to capture your target faster. Not that I think you will ever find another Living Being in this place anyway."
With that said, Labina didn"t waste time and quickly flew away with her children. She truly didn"t want to look at Luman"s face anymore, which reminded her of how she had just lost five of her extremely precious Dark Decaying Beads.
Luman smiled all the way until Labina disappeared in the distance. Only then did he put the matter on the back of his head and return to the hall where the twins" group was located. "Hehehe! To think I would strike such a deal without any losses. Truly, your appearance here in my settlement was a great blessing."
Rean could only smile back. "That"s good to hear. By the way, what are these beads you asked for in exchange?"
Luman raised one of the beads close to his eyes and examined it with a bright expression. "Dark Decaying Beads. These are extremely good items for breaking through bottlenecks in Devil Races. As for me, they are one of the materials necessary for a treasure I"m refining. That"s all I can say. Now then, going back to the Dark Tide. Let me explain how you can defend against that without having to resort to going into your Dimensional Realms."
