Chapter 312 - Conversation

Name:Death... and me Author:Suiyan
With Latalia, Rovan, and the twins working together, Vio was quickly overwhelmed by the group attack. Not to mention that he had tried to escape earlier while ignoring Rovan's attack. That only contributed to his terrible situation. 

The other Core Formation Realm cultivators were also quickly dealt with, leaving almost none alive. 

In the end, only Vio was left alive. However, it was done that way so Roan could ask him a few questions. 

However, as soon as the battle was concluded, Sian and Ervan fell to the ground. They were already gravely injured while Rean and Roan prepared the trap for Beal, forcing themselves to stand up and attack the Umbral Sect's group after the twins' help finally arrived.

Latalia narrowed her eyes as she looked at the two. After that, she arrived beside Ervan and began to pour Spiritual Energy into his body. Rovan wanted to do the same, but the Enhancement Skill's effect had already disappeared a while ago. He didn't receive serious injuries, but he could barely move at the moment.

Latalia then looked at Sian before shaking her head.

"This one called Ervan can still be saved, but he has absorbed too much Umbral Energy, so I don't know if he can fully recover. As for the other guy, he is beyond what a healing Pill can fix. Just give him a quick death."

However, everyone other than Latalia looked at Rean at that moment.

"Alright, alright. Don't look at me with those puppy eyes. I'll fix him, okay?"

Latalia didn't know what Rean was talking about. What fix? Does he have a high-level healing pill?

Of course, that was far from the truth.

'Life Style, Second Form, Instant Recovery.'

'Life Style, Third Form, Purification.'

In front of Latalia's eyes, she saw all the injuries on Sian's body quickly closing. Not only that, her Spiritual Sense could tell how the Umbral Energy inside his body was being swiftly destroyed.

"The hell? What are you, a god?"

Rean laughed as he looked at her.

"Nope, I'm an angel."

Everyone other than Roan showed a puzzled expression.

'What the hell is an angel?'

Roan simply added in response.

"It does match the nightingale's nickname."

Rean's mouth twitched.

"F.u.c.k you!"Find authorized novels in , faster updates, better experience, Please click #...-and-me_17340518006576905/conversation_50906606497491609 for visiting.

While no one understood what they were fighting about, Rean finished healing Sian up. Sian was not at the Core and Soul Fusion Realm like Rovan, so it was a lot faster to finish him.

Soon after, Rean moved closer to Ervan.

Latalia finally came back to herself and retreated to the side. Compared to his healing abilities, her Healing Pills and Spiritual Energy were simply useless.

"Nnghhh."

"Bear with the pain. Destroying the Umbral Energy inside your body is the first priority before it can damage your organs. If that happens, it will take even longer to heal you."

Sure enough, as much Light Element as there might be, having Dark Element running through ones' body was anything but comfortable.

"Impressive. Now I know why the Umbral Sect was after you two. There was a rumor about a kid who could heal Umbral Energy without the need for pills from the Dalamu Sect. That kid is you, right? I didn't expect that your healing abilities were that powerful that even Healing Pills pale in comparison."

Rean smiled as he nodded.

"It seems like I'm quite famous. Hahaha!"

*Pah!*

Roan slapped the back of his head right after.

"Since when being famous is a good thing in the cultivation world, you idiot? Stop wasting time and finish this guy."

Rean rubbed the back of his head as he looked at Roan.

"Did you finish with that guy?"

Roan nodded.

"I did. They didn't come at us by following a track or anything like that. It was purely coincidence that they just so happened to use the same maze change moment that brought us together. It seems like quite a few groups are starting to understand how this maze works. If they don't die to the Fake Demon Beasts, they will eventually head in the same direction."

It was then that Latalia remembered.

"Wait! Don't think I forgot how you pulled me into this mess. Although we won the fight, we almost died, brats!"

Roan looked at Latalia and snorted in response.

"Hmph! That was your own luck. None of us knew that the Umbral Sect would appear in that place. After all, the initial idea was to simply get Ervan's group back. We didn't even know you were with them. Of course, we didn't know because you didn't allow Ervan to say that in his Thoughts Transmission Talisman, right? That is also part of your own fault."

Latalia's expression darkened, but she couldn't come up with an answer. It was true that she was the one who ordered Ervan to not tell them about her presence.

On Ervan's side, he finished explaining what happened to Luo through a Spiritual Sense message. 

Rovan sighed after hearing that. How could he not understand how Evan felt? They were a small clan. Because of that, their few members were quite united too. Ervan obviously grieved the loss of Elder Luo. However, Rovan shook his head in the end.

'We all knew about the risks of coming into the Core Region to look for Latalia. It was all for the Serene Jade and your daughter's sake. Besides, she really kept her word and protected you all during the rest of the way. That alone was already heaven-defying luck of your part. You will be the next Clan Head in the future, so you must look at the greater picture.'

Ervan's expression turned gloomy, but he knew that Rovan was right.

'Yes, father.'

Rean then finished dealing with Ervan before he extended his hand to Latalia.

"Please give me your hand for a second."

"What do you want?"

"Senior Latalia was also hit that guy called Sames, right? I can feel the Umbral Energy inside your body. Although it isn't much, that's not something you can eliminate with your cultivation alone. You will need a specific pill for that, which I don't think you have at the moment."

Latalia wanted to deny it, but it was apparent when looking at her body that she had been injured in the battle as well.

"Brat, you better not try anything funny."

Rean smiled as he shook his head.

"Don't worry. However, it will be quite painful, so bear with it."

"Hmph! It is okay as long as you finish it properly."

Rean sighed at how she acted high and mighty. Nevertheless, he still started with his treatment.

'Life Style, Third Form, Purification.'

Rean held Latalia's hand and began to eliminate the Umbral Energy inside her body. His control over the Purification Ability was several times better than when he healed Tiria and Nana. He didn't need to touch the parts where Umbral Energy was gathered anymore to get rid of it. Besides, the amount of Umbral Energy inside Latalia's body paled in comparison to what Tiria had.

Latalia understood why Rean warned her. It was indeed painful to have the Dark Element running through ones' body. If not for the Light Element protecting her organs, she would have pulled her hand back straight away. Still, she gritted her teeth as she kept her prideful stance.

Unfortunately for her, Rean had first treated the Umbral Energy in her body. He had left the healing of her injuries to be done after that on purpose.

The pain of the Dark Element quickly disappeared after the Umbral Energy was dealt with. Following that, Rean playfully smiled as he began to heal the injuries on her body instead.

'Let's see if you can keep your facade up now.'

'Life Style, Second Form, Instant Recovery.'

Rean went all out as a burst of Light Element and Spiritual Energy came from his body. It quickly washed over Latalia's entire body, healing her injuries at fast speeds. However, his aim was not that...

Latalia was taken aback because of the sudden burst of... pleasure... and couldn't hold her voice back.

*M.o.a.n~*

She quickly covered her mouth in less than an instant, not believing what she had just done. She was over a hundred years old, with a middle-aged appearance. Not to mention her serious yet cold expression she kept ever since meeting Ervan's group. That 'cute' m.o.a.n had really attracted all of the men's attention in the area. Immediately, Latalia's face turned as red as a tomato. When had she ever m.o.a.ned in front of others like that?

Rovan, Ervan, and Sian coughed as they looked away, pretending that they didn't hear anything.

She then looked hatefully at Rean. It was evident that it was his fault that she did that. The Light Element made her entire body feel way too good! Especially some 'particular parts' down there that Rean purposely focused his Light Element on.

"Done. You are as good as new now, senior Latalia."

Latalia then looked at Roan, who smirked at her.

"Didn't know you had such a side. Guess you aren't that cold after all."

"F.u.c.k you! It was your brother's fault!"

Rean looked at Latalia with an innocent and wronged expression.

"Why put the blame on me?! I just eliminated the Umbral Energy and healed all the injuries on your body. Take a good look, I even got rid of all the scars, new and old, that you had before. And this is how you thank me?!"

Latalia was taken aback as she used her Spiritual Sense to check her body. As an old cultivator at the Core and Soul Fusion Realm, she had participated in several battles. Naturally, she got quite a few scars as time went by. Even Tiria and Mia back in the Dalamu Sect were no exception to these issues.

However, now that she looked at her entire body, she noticed that all the scars had really disappeared completely. In fact, her skin looked as smooth as never. As cold as she might be, Latalia would be lying if she said she didn't mind those things. 

"This... Is this a permanent change or temporary?"

Rean nodded.

"It's permanent. After all, scars are also considered old injuries, not part of the body. That being said, I can stimulate the cells to recover those damaged parts."

Latalia couldn't help but ask.

"Cells? What are cells?"

Only then Rean remembered that people don't know the concept of cells in this medieval world.

"Ahem... All you need to know is that your scars won't come back. Of course, if you get new ones, then there's nothing I can do."

Latalia was in a dilemma. Be angry because of the embarrassment she had just felt, or thank Rean for doing something any woman would love to receive.

Rean then faintly smiled as he got an idea.

"Alright. I healed your body and got rid of the scars as compensation for pulling you inside the Umbral Sect battle. We owe you nothing anymore. If you get other injures and scars in the future, that is your problem. Everyone, let's move out!"

Latalia's expression suddenly changed. That's right! In the future, she really might obtain more injuries. That's something that all cultivators are at risk of receiving as they progress. Wouldn't it be great if she could ask Rean's help to heal them for her?

Of course, there were alchemist pills that were made to help get rid of scars. The problem was that the stronger one gets, the stronger the pill had to be. Besides, depending on how one got those scars, the remaining power in the injuries might make it impossible for the pills to heal them. Latalia's own scars just so happened to be that type. The ones that could be cured with pills she did already. Besides, she knew quite a few other female cultivators that would love something like that.

"Ahem... Let's not act so harsh towards each other, right? Didn't we just go through a life and death battle together? Aren't we basically friends now?."

Roan and the others' mouths twitched. Since when had she thought about them as friends? As for Rean, he couldn't help but inwardly laugh out loud.

'The ultimate women's trap! Hahaha!'
