Chapter 759 - How Should I Know?

Rean couldn't help but mention, "But...Red Streak isn't exactly a name. It's more like a title, no?"

Red Streak shook his head, saying, "I'm not like you humans, who receive your names from your parents. I had to give myself a name once I reached Stage Five. With that said, I chose Red Streak, that's all."

Rean pondered a bit before saying, "Well, calling you Red Streak is kind of annoying. I'm just going to call you Red from now on."

The Blood Rabbit didn't like the idea at all. "It's Lord Red Streak, human. Where's your respect?"

Rean completely ignored his words, though. "Alright, Red. You should be able to see where the carrot plantation is located with your Spiritual Sense. You can head there and ask our members to give some of the carrots that we've already harvested." Following that, Rean turned around to leave.

"Wait! Are you really going to leave just like that? I could totally kill everyone here once you head out far enough," Red couldn't help but say that. Well, it seemed like he didn't really care about Rean calling him Red in the end.

Rean stopped and looked back at Red, responding, "Worried? Not really. I don't know how you did it, but your hiding skills can't even be detected by my sensory formation. With that said, you could have killed many of us, and I wouldn't even know until it was too late. Since you didn't do that, it's obvious that you have no such intentions to start with."

Red narrowed his eyes, asking in response, "Aren't you going to ask how I hid my presence either?"

Rean shrugged his shoulders, saying, "It's not like we can't do the same thing." Suddenly, Rean's presence disappeared from Red's Spiritual Sense. It was as if he wasn't even there. However, he was definitely right in front of him, so it was impossible. Red was a common demon beast, so Rean's Spiritual Sense bending skill did work on him. Well, Rean was also on the other side of the building, so that helped out as well. Otherwise, Red's Spiritual Sense would be too hard to bend. 

Red's eyes widened when he noticed Rean disappear. "For a human, you are truly full of surprises."

Rean nodded, saying, "In any case, I won't tell you how I can do it, nor do I believe you'll tell us how you do it. Since we both have our secrets, let's keep it at that. Just don't forget to prevent the Stage Five Demon Beasts from coming here."

Red didn't have a way to rebuke Rean, so he didn't try. "Fine. What about the lower-level ones? I can't possibly let them roam around if someone of your level begins to hunt them down."

"What are you talking about? Of course, I wouldn't go out of my way to hunt Stage Four Demon Beasts and below. I can also vouch for the other three that they won't do it. Only the low-level members of our group will head out to train against the demon beasts. As you've probably noticed already, Malo, the guy who tried to capture you, is a Core Formation Realm cultivator. He has the highest cultivation after the four Nascent Souls and Stage Five Demon Beasts. With that said, you shouldn't have a reason to complain."

Red agreed with Rean on that. "As long as that's the case, then we have a deal." Following that, Red dashed to the building's entrance. He was so fast that he truly looked like a streak of red light. However, just as he was about to leave, he looked back at Rean and asked, "Oh, right. What about this wooden equipment of yours? The Yang Energy coming from it is really good."

Rean smiled in response after hearing that, replying, "If you want, you can stay and cultivate close to it as well. We found it by coincidence when we attacked a Zasfin tribe outside the Demon Beast Continent. It's very beneficial."

Soon after, he warned Red. "However, you better not try to take it with you. The protection formation I put in place won't be something you can easily break through."

Red didn't have any intentions to do so anyway. "Whatever. Since it's free to use, I have no need to take it for myself. After all, I would bring it to my own territory. However, we're already inside my territory, so it doesn't matter where it is." Sure enough, he still didn't recognize that Rean's group owned the area.

Rean didn't try to refute him with that either. Something inside him told him that if Red decided to run, even Kentucky's speed wouldn't be enough to catch him. If that happened, having something that fast, strong, and small as an enemy would become a true headache. "That's true. We never had the intention of taking Fruzei Hills for ourselves anyway. It just so happens to be a good place to let our young ones train. In exchange, it will be good for your demon beasts to train as well."

Red nodded and finally disappeared in a flash of red light. A second later, he disappeared from Rean's Spiritual Sense, just like Rean did a moment later. 'Truly, what a weird demon beast. Well, I guess I can't say much about ourselves either.'

Roan, who watched everything, immediately asked, 'Are you sure you want to leave it like that? Although Celis now has a different cultivation realm and appearance, that rabbit might notice something.'

Rean shook his head, saying in response, 'I don't think so. It's like I said, it could have created a massacre way before we noticed its presence, but it didn't. First of all, chances are that this Blood Rabbit doesn't even know about Celis or anything like that. Don't forget, Celis is kind of a secret between the upper echelon of both sides of the war.'

Roan had to admit that Rean was right. 'Very well. Now, go back to cultivate. Leave the settlement for everyone else to take care of.'

Rean nodded, but just as he was about to leave again, Malo called his attention, saying, "Wait, Rean."

"Hmm?" Rean looked back. "What is it?"

Malo scratched the back of his head as he asked, "Are we living here from now on?"

Rean shook his head, saying, "How should I know?"

Malo, Falas, Poliana, and the others were taken aback by his response. What did Rean mean by that?
