Chapter 175: A Pleasent Surprise (Optional Chapter)

"So how are we here?" Watanabe asked as she stood in front of a person and the person passed right through her body.

It felt as though she was a ghost and it was quite unsettling. Kiana and Levina were wondering the same thing but were anxious as well.

But Kia was carefree as he casually walked forward while the three girls trailed behind him.

"Demons can possess the bodies of other people with their permission and can accompany them for as long as the person allows them to stay in his or her body. Even if the real body of the demon is killed, his or her soul still lives on in the body of the possessed person." Kai began as the girls saw familiar sights while walking.

"High-level demons can also take the souls of a certain number of people with them. So I just found a near-death person and promised to heal him in exchange for him letting me use his body. Currently, we are in the body of a 4th stage hell spirit realm cultivator." Kai finished as the girls nodded.

When they reached the palace entrance, the guards standing there stopped them from entering the palace.

"What is your business with the royal family?" One of them asked as Kai smiled and the guards suddenly fell unconscious.

"What did you do?" Watanabe asked curiously as they moved inside the palace.

"I just showed them my demon eyes by using the eyes of the body we are in." Kai explained as they walked inside.

The three girls went forward as they eyed the familiar walls of the palace.

"How much time has passed since we left this place?" Kiana asked as Kai's smile died down.

"Honestly, time passes differently everywhere. It might just have been a week or It might have been several centuries. We just have to wait and see how much things have changed." Kai said as their expressions darkened.

If several centuries had passed, then Asahi might not even be alive and one of their brother or sister might have ascended to the throne.

"You stupid children. You better stop or I am gonna whoop your ass!" The four of them suddenly stopped as they heard a female's scream running throughout the palace.

"I don't recognize that voice." Levina said with confusion as two twins dashed towards them with a terrified expression on their faces.

"What will they see?" Kiana asked in panic as Kai shook his head.

"They will only see the body of the man we are inhabiting." He replied as a man suddenly appeared in front of them.

He looked as though he was in his early thirties. He had black hair that fell down to his shoulders and had a tall graceful figure.

"This is someone who spent his entire life cultivating but couldn't make a breakthrough to live for long enough. I promised him a second chance at life if he lived his life to the fullest." Kai explained as the twins suddenly hid behind the man's body.

A woman suddenly landed in front of them with eyes burning red with anger. Her waist was slim with beautiful white hair running down till the back of her spine.

Her eyes were crystal green and she had a crown on her head as she looked at the man and the twins hiding behind his legs.

"Who are you?" The woman asked while clenching her right fist in the twins direction as they trembled.

"I gotta go." Kai said to the three girls as he suddenly vanished. He now saw the woman from the man's eyes as he was directly controlling his body.

"No one important." Kai answered in a rough voice as he frowned and cleared his throat.

"No one important huh." A dangerous smile appeared on the woman's face as she released her cultivation.

But Kai didn't budge as another person landed beside the woman. He had a child tied to his chest while he was holding the fingers of a small boy with his hands.

"What did they do now?" Asahi asked the woman as she pointed at Kai.

The three women currently watching the scene from the third person perspective blinked in confusion as they saw Asahi holding the children.

"Why is he holding those children?" Kiana asked out loud but the other two women also didn't know the answer to her question.

'So he actually took my advice.' Kai thought with while hiding a grin.

"Yo Asahi." The man's figure suddenly changed into Kai's body as Asahi's jaw dropped when he saw the familiar purple hair and gleaming purple eyes.

"K-kai, is that you?" Asahi stuttered as Kai smiled and nodded.

"I am not the only one here. I have got the three of them with me." Kai added as Asahi's open mouth was left hanging open.

His face looked as though he was about to either die from happiness or jump in joy because of it. Asahi did neither and released his grip on the little boy's finger.

He then carefully examined Kai before stepping back with wide eyes. The woman looked at him in confusion and didn't understand what was happening.

"Do you know him?" She asked as Kai chuckled.

"Do I now Asahi? I am his son-in-law." Kai answered as the woman's eyes widened and she looked at Asahi. 

"There's no mistaking that infuriating talking style. You are indeed Kai." Asahi sighed as he turned towards the woman.

"Meet my wife, Zian Lisa." Asahi said as Kai heard three gasps at once.

"After so many years, he finally married someone." Watanabe remarked approvingly as the two other girls nodded.

"And this here is Kai. I would have asked him to introduce himself but that will just leave you more confused. So instead, I will just tell you everything about him." Asahi said as Kai grinned.

"At least you remember that." He added as Asahi glared at him before talking with his wife and explaining everything to her.

"So he is the person from the rumors." Lisa said with a click of her tongue as she examined Kai with a newfound curiosity.

"Now that I am here. Why don't you talk with Watanabe and the others." Kai said as three figures appeared beside him.

Asahi's face suddenly lit up with a smile as he looked at his daughters and mother with a happy face.

"Mother, Kiana, and Levina." He eyed each one of them for a few minutes as the three girls nodded when he called out their names.

"Let's have a proper family reunion." Asahi said with a smile on his face as everyone present there moved away.
