Death… And Me

Chapter 3202: Knock Next Time



Rean returned to the Gozen Sect, which was basically Tomoe's surname. Spreading his Spiritual Sense once again, most of the Anti-Spiritual Sense Formations were already taken down the last time Rean was here. Now, his Spiritual Sense checked every cranny, and soon, he found Tomoe.

Rean, Kentucky, and Rifindio disappeared from sight with the help of Rean's Light Bending Skill. The highest cultivation in this Sect was only Saint Realm Late Stage, which Tomoe's own cultivation. None of them had any fear of being detected on their way into the sect.

Passing by the many female disciples, Rean's group quickly reached the innermost part of the sect, close to the top of the mountain. On the way, Rean also noticed something different. All the women in this sect had swords, and Tomoe was no exception. 'Could it be a different type of swordplay style?' Rean wondered.

Finally, he reached a closed chamber, sealed by a formation that could only be opened from the inside. At most, one could send a message inside, but no one could enter. Inside the chamber, Tomoe cultivated peacefully. The Yang Energy she collected recently was still not used up, so she had a few days to go until she had to come out to gather more.

"Sigh... at this pace, it will take another year to reach the Peak Stage of the Saint Realm. In the end, the Yang Energy of higher-level male cultivators is much better. Having to rely on Soul Transformation and the below ones is just not as efficient," Tomoe talked to herself, which was something she did quite often.

Of course, she wasn't expecting an answer, and she wouldn't get one usually. Today, however...

'Lower-level cultivators might not be as efficient, but they are safe. If you spread your legs wide open for cultivators of a similar level to yourself, there is a chance that they might try something against you. I think you made the right choice to take the slow but certain path,' said a Spiritual Sense that reached Tomoe's mind.

Absent-minded for a moment, Tomoe nodded. "Right? I think so t-" Then, she finally woke up and immediately pulled her sword while spreading her Spiritual Sense. "Who is there?!"

Turned her head, Tomoe immediately recognized the other part. Rean was there, smiling at her and finding it funny. "Yo! Long time no see."

"Rean?!" Tomoe was shocked to see Rean there, alive. She, too, thought he was dead. "Are you a ghost?"

"Well, he has always been as pale as a ghost, so the description fits pretty well," Kentucky commented on the side. "Believe it or not, even his pubs are white. Disgusting!"

Rean's mouth twitched. "Fuck you! At least I'm not fat!"

"Who the hell is fat?!" Kentucky stuffed his chest with pride. "I just have a lot of muscle. In the Minokawa World, I'm one of the slimmest!"

Tomoe massaged her forehead, not understanding the situation. "You, the guy with an ugly bat face. You seem the most reliable here. Can you explain all of this?"

Rifindio almost vomited blood. He was quiet in his corner, why did she have to call him in such a manner. "I'm just tagging along. You talk to him."

"Alright, alright," Rean immediately intervened. "Let's stop all the antics. I came to see you, Tomoe. To be more specific, I came to ask about my parents. However, I already met them in the city, so I guess all I need to do is pay you as we agreed back then."

Tomoe calmed down. She now could tell that Rifindio was indeed at a much higher cultivation level than her. The fact they even talked before trying anything against her while she had her guard down at least shows they don't have bad intentions... for now. "I think you owe me quite a little bit more than that, no?"

Rean scratched the back of his head and approached, patting the woman's shoulder. "Yea, yea... Sorry for being out for this long. Well, you are a sword maniac, so other than not being able to see my sword intent, it is not like you cared if I disappeared or not."

Tomoe nodded. "That I can't deny."

Rean then looked at her sword, which was still emanating her Sword Intent. "Still, you made such great strides since the last time I saw you. There is no doubt. Your Sword Intent has reached the advanced Stage Four. You are a step away from comprehending the Fifth Stage." He continued. "Above all, there is something extra to it, which I can understand. Everyone understands their Weapon Intents in their own unique way, and it is pretty obvious you found yours. Is this thing about having a lot of sex for your Dual Cultivation and Yang Energy related to it? I can feel the mix of Yin and Yang in your Intent."

Tomoe was surprised Rean could see through her own progress that easily. She finally stopped using her Sword Intent, sheathing it back in the scabbard. "This behavior, this knowledge about swords... Yes, you are definitely the same Rean as back then."

*Pah!*

*Ouch!*Nôv(el)B\\jnn

Then, she made a chop motion, hitting Rean's head. There was no malice, just a desire to cause some pain. "Still, you shouldn't talk about a woman's private moments in such an open manner. Have some consideration."

Rean bitterly smiled. "Sorry, sorry. Still, the Tomoe back then wouldn't have cared about such things either. You seem to have really changed in these Four Hundred Plus years. How did you decide to open your own sect? I've never thought about you as someone who wants to lead anything. Also, dual cultivation? I find it harder to believe you would take this kind of path. Of course, no complaints here. You do you."

Tomoe shrugged. "People change, especially a sword maniac like me. Come, let's go to my room and talk a little."

Rean, Kentucky, and Rifindio quickly followed.

"Oh, right!" Tomoe suddenly stopped, turning in Rean's direction again.

*Pah! Pah! Pah!*

She hit The three men's heads as well. "This is a women-only sect! Next time, knock on the door at the sect entrance!"

"Sorry..." The trio could only relent... even though they are so much stronger.
