"Each of the eight Evil Empyreans lost a portion of their memories and lifespan but, in the end, we managed to save you. After saving your soul, we all entered into our respective soul spaces. Then all the evil empyrean's provided their energies to me so that I can bring about the utmost capabilities of the Domination emblem. And by using the prowess of your truth emblem, we bent the rules of reality and opened a universe traversing portal. Using it, we all traveled to another universe and escaped the wrath of Death True God and creator of all, who had become angered at us for saving your soul!" Elder Bai, who was staring down at the debt drowned beggar, said in his archaic voice.
Feng, who lacked all sense of shame, didn't feel any guilt. At least, none was shown on his face. He calm as a Buddhist copper sculpture which won't shake even during Earthquakes.
'Damn, I really am a VVIP. Even the creator of all was angered, it's a nice achievement to show my colleagues,' Feng thought.
Feng was sitting right in front of elder Bai, facing his eyes with his own. He said to confirm how much of this past is true, "So you guys lost a part of your memories to save me?"
"Yes, " Elder Bai nodded in response. His eyeball slightly shifting away from Feng's own guilt.
Feng caught elder Bai eyes shifting away from his own, once more. It was at this moment that Feng concluded, something was really fishy here.
"Elder Bai, are you hiding something from me?" Feng said to lure the fish towards the bait.
"Eh, no, why would you think that? Anyways we should start talking about the dangerous things happening in the physical worlds." Elder Bai, who had hidden some parts of the truth, said to change the topic. But, unknowingly, he had taken the bait Feng set out.
"Oh, Don't worry elder Bai, we have a lot of time to talk about that. In fact, an entire night is left for us to have a chat. For now, can you tell me why... Why is it that, I don't remember you guys pulling my soul away from the Death realm, breaking the Death True God curse, and saving me from absolute obliteration? Why!" Feng, who was sitting like a calm monk–ey, suddenly showed his sharp claws and asked in a loud and forceful tone.
Feng only had the memories of space cracking apart and then being mysterious transmigrated back to Earth located in Fruity way galaxy. At that time, he mentally assured himself by believing that he transmigrated back to Earth because his parents kept his body alive. But now, this reason was overruled, a complete bullshit as to say.
Elder Bai, the giant was pressured after being asked such a question. He called his lawyer and utilized his rights to remain silent.
Drip!

Drop!

The pitter-patter sound of raindrops crashing on celes riveria from the starry ocean chaperoned the stillness in the environment.
For a while, the silence continued in the first's evil empyrean soul space. A serene environment, one without any tension was created. For onlookers like Deicide, who wasn't a part of this conversation and is being treated like a forgettable character, this serene environment wasn't calm but enthralling. In Deicide eyes, the reflection of a huge war was shown, a war being fought by utilizing silence.
Feng wanted to obtain the answer as to why he don't remember any of the stuff happening while elder Bai didn't want to tell him the answer, hence they both utilized one of the best psychological weapon —— silence!
Whoever breaks this silence first will lose this war.
During the silence, Feng turned his attention towards Deicide while starting into elder Bai's eyes. "Ancestor pig butcher, do you have any information about what happened? No, wait... Could it be that you forgot to tell me?" Feng mentally communicated with Deicide. Feng had some suspicion about this demon, who was more shameless and lazier than himself.
'Oh, shit! How did he realize? Gotta play it cool! I Gotta play it cool to evade being shunned down,' Deicide evasively thought in his mind.
He immediately replied back, "No, young chap, there's no way we would know what happened at that time. I was unconscious the whole time. Don't ya remember? I fought so hard during our war against Tian Wu that I became leaves-less and injured. While I was entering into a deep state of coma, you teleported me inside the soul space. Furthermore, didn't you hear elder Bai words? He said eight evil empyrean sacrificed a part of their memories not nine. I was unconscious, hence I was not able to help you out." Deicide telepathically answered back. He was openly lying through the teeth. The ancient legend was true, 'Never trust the words of a demon'.
Feng believed in Deicide words cause they made sense, evidence was also provided by Deicide to back up his words.
Feng focused his entire attention on elder Bai. He started trying his best to win the war of silence so that he can force the truth out of elder Bai mouth.
The situation remained the same, but the pressure elder Bai was facing in this serene environment increased every second. It's because Feng had been staring deep into his soul by using his dark black eyes tainted with blood-tattoos.
The eyes of the victim shouting "Why!" "Why!" "Why!" was breaking pressuring Elder Bai's
and breaking his will to remain silent.
The pitter-patter sound ringing in the surrounding made the situation worse for the gentle giant.
Do note that Elder Bai wasn't the most wise person in Feng's life because of his IQ level. He was a wise Collosi giant because of the prowess of his truth emblem — The emblem of wisdom!
Anyways, Elder Bai lawyer didn't come to help him out of this predicament, and Feng's deep as abyss eyes caused elder Bai to give up.
Besides, in his heart, he believes that Feng deserves to know the truth.
"Uh, well, you see little wind, there was no simple or easy way to immediately save you from the curse of True Death God. Time was also limited for us. The passage of each second meant an increase in the failure rate of our plan to escape that universe. Enemies were searching wide and low for us. The True Death God was also searching for your soul. There was no way that we were going to leave you, Sunny, and Deicide behind. Death True God was going to absorb your soul, poor Sunny and Deicide would have also been killed and absorbed by my 'greedy for power' master. Hence, we all decided to perform the [Mystical legendary Magic] \u003cSoul Cleanse\u003e on your soul to burn the Death True God curse. With the help of the [Mystical legendary Magic] «Soul cleanse» we succeeded in breaking the curse and successfully escaped that universe, " elder Bai, who had put down his pride and accepted defeat in the war of silence, explained to Feng Mei, who was lost in thoughts.
[Mystical Magic] was an entitlement used for magic related to the soul. Legendary was the rank above Grand Magic. [Mystical Legendary Magic] was the peak level of magic related to the soul. While the spell 'soul cleanse' was one of the ten hardest spells to use. It wasn't hard to learn but hard to use. The usage of this spell required the user or users to give up a portion of their memories and some of their powers. The spell will be more powerful the more memories are consumed by it.
Death True God curse was super-powerful. A single Evil Empyrean using his memories to utilize soul cleanse and clean Feng's soul from Death True God will result in his own memories being wiped out, hence eight of them had decided to share the burden of utilizing Soul cleanse to destroy Death True God curse.
"No wonder why you said that eight evil empyreans lost a portion of their memories to help me out." Feng blurted after thinking for a while.
Elder Bai nodded in agreement and excluded a breath of relief. But he became tense, once again, after he saw Feng narrowed eyes and furrowed brows.
Feng once again began to recall some more stuff about soul cleanse.
The Spell 'Soul cleanse' was used on the physical body to clear the wounds caused by curses and curses that are inflicted upon a soul.
It was a good medicine as long as it is cast upon the physical body. But Feng didn't have a physical body, only a soul!
