Chapter 931: My Handsome Husband
Kana and Creige flew through the air, holding hands while Elder Xuegang was dragged behind them by a long rope. Sometimes Creige would fly low so that Elder Xuegang would smash into treetops and become bruised and battered.
Kana had already yanked his soul out to figure out where he lived before turning him into a door ornament. They only needed the body. It didn"t matter if he was alive or not. Kana was quite curious as to how strong these so called ancient families were with their ancestors.
They two traveled for almost a week before arriving in the middle of a mountain range where they were to find a small mystic realm where the Xuegang ancient clan lived. Kana and Creige both landed on the ground in a clear opening that had been well taken care of. There was a small stone path that led to a stone circle in the middle of a flowered field. It was clear as day that this place was highly suspicious.
"According to the old man"s memories, this should be it," Kana said as she stood in the middle of the stone circle with pursed lips. She reached out with her delicate looking hand and poked the air in front of her, forcefully tearing a hole in s.p.a.ce to the mystic realm hidden here.
Inside the mystic realm in a large hall where the Xuegang clan were currently having their daily meeting, the air trembled, causing the current family head"s brow to furrow. "What is going on?"
"Clan head! Someone has broken into the mystic realm!" A guard from outside yelled out as he came running into the hall.
"What!?" The people in the room all became alert as the clan head stood up from his seat and flew out of the hall. He was quickly followed by all the family elders.
Kana, who had just stepped into the realm, found that the spiritual qi here was not half bad. It was just as dense or even denser than her master"s peak. "Hmmm, should we move house?"
"I do not think it would be worth it," Creige said. "Especially since we probably won"t be returning to the old house anytime soon."
"That is true…." Kana replied as she looked around. However, she did find this place very pretty. "I wonder what would happen if I stole the mystic realm…. I think I will try…."
Kana had an idea of storing the entire mystic realm in a void which she could then carry with her wherever she went. This way, she could always have a cultivation spot for her and her family if they ever needed one. Creige nodded his head at this suggestion. He also felt this was not a bad idea. It would save them the ha.s.sle of having to find houses in the future after they progress through the levels. "Maybe I should collect one per plane?"
"That could also work, and then we can connect them to make a bigger realm," Creige suggested.
"Oh! Good idea! My Handsome Husband knows best!" Kana smiled as she flew through the air, hand in hand with Creige. She ignored the thousand or so cultivators who were heading toward her as if they did not exist at all.
But of course, even if she ignored them, this did not mean they would not show up in front of her. Within a matter of minutes, Kana and Creige were surrounded by a bunch of old men. "Who are you!? How dare you invade my Xuegang clan"s territory!"
"h.e.l.lo!" Kana waved with a bright smile causing the old men, even the clan head who just yelled out in anger, to be taken aback.
"Yes, we came to return something that belongs to you. We found it during our travels and figured you would want it back." Creige said as he lifted the lifeless body of Elder Xuegang, whose entire body was now covered in wounds from tree branches and even had some tree bits stuck in and on different parts of his body.
"This… Isn"t that Old Mo"s kid? The one who was kicked out for trying to sleep with his cousin?" The elder"s words made Kana and Creige"s brow furrow as Creige dropped the lifeless body in his hand and quickly had Kana set his hands on fire to sanitize them.
"You! How dare you do that to one of my Xuegang clan members! Even if he wasn"t welcomed, he is still part of my Xuegang family!" The clan head yelled out in anger. It seemed like any disrespect to his clan, even if it was someone they kicked out, was seen as a slap to his face. But this was exactly what Creige was hoping for as he cracked his knuckles.
"Since you are mad now, can you call out your ancestor? I wish to have a fight with him. I mean, it is the least you can do after I return something that belongs to you." Creige was speaking with a smile on his face, but his words were not matching up with his happy mood.
"Humph! A small immortal king wants to fight my clan"s ancestor!? Who do you think you are!?" The Xuegang clan head yelled out. He seemed to really like yelling.
"Umm? He"s my Handsome Husband. That is who he is," Kana answered proudly. This only served to confuse the people standing there even more.
"Wha… What does that have to do with anything!?" The Xuegang clan head yelled out.
"Well, he is handsome, and he is my Husband. So I was just answering your question. You asked who he was, and that is who he is, my Handsome Husband!" Kana replied with a firm nod.
Creige chuckled. He could see the old man"s face growing redder by the second. "I guess we just have to go looking for the ancestor guy ourselves."
"Mm… You are probably right. I mean, they just let the body we brought back smash into the ground below without caring for it. So I guess that Elder Xuegang was not on good terms with his family. Sad to see such a thing. Family should stick together." Kana sighed as she held onto Creige"s arm. "We should go then. We do not have time to keep talking with these old men."
"You! Don"t ignore me!"
