Taking a look at Master Xing, Cain was about to walk towards him.
But at this time, Zexi's charming voice loudly rippled across the area.
"Ahh!! Brother Cain! You're absolutely amazing!"
Divine lights shrouded Zexi as she tore through space. She neared Cain's side and had no hesitation at all. Her arms hugged around Cain's neck, her soft body charmingly clinging to his side.
That bold action alone was a bit bewildering to see. But that was just the beginning.
Zexi was considerably different from the girl Cain formed relations with. She boldly kissed his cheek right in front of the entire lightning Rocs!
'Chu~!'
The soft sensation of her lips caused ripples to course down Zexi's and Cain's bodies. Stirring in their bloodlines stimulated. The essence of their Yin and Yang had a faint calling to each other. A yearning that was noticeable to both of them.
"Th-that little lass really has no fear..." The lightning Roc masters all held slightly awkward smiles.
Though they couldn't feel too disrupted by Zexi's behavior. Stronger ties to Cain means a better future for all lightning Rocs.
Even though it was a bold action divine cultivators normally don't take part in, Zexi held little embarrassment as she slowly pulled off from Cain. Her smile never once decreases throughout the entire time.
Cain similarly was calm with a slight smirk. He never was the one to refuse favor from willing women.
Gently caressing Zexi's lush hair, Cain turned to Master Xing and said, "Alright, alright, let's calm down and discuss inside. Brother Xing?"
"Ah! Right." Master Xing quickly sobered up. He turned to the injured and bewildered middle stage masters, telling them, "You all quickly go heal up. I'll handle everything else from here."
"Mn. Understood." The injured masters also quickly awoke out of their stupor, turning into trails of divine lights that went back to their base.
Without any more words, Master Xing led Cain and Zexi back into the same meeting chamber they had used last time.
Their disappearance jolted everyone else from their own stupors. Numerous emotions sprawled across everyone's face. The proceeding noise stormed through the lightning Rocs.
"Our sect really had just avoided a disaster near perfectly...just who is he?"
"Even with this overwhelming victory, I can't help but wonder about the Astral Demons and Moon Order's retaliation."
"They're for sure sore losers. But even they will need to think twice before messing with us!"
It was evident to all the deaths of Divine Decree Lord won't just end with this. But even so, the lightning Rocs were filled with far more hope than before.
A miracle worker was on their side. One whose prowess is seemingly far too vast for any mere divine cultivator to understand.
...
Inside the meeting chamber.
Cain got straight down to business. He stimulated the lords' spatial rings, bringing out several vials of a mystical golden elixir.
Their appearance caused Zexi and Master Xing to jump straight to their feet.
"This!" Their eyes widen to an extreme. Extreme dao principles rippled all across their Divine Sense. Sensations of mystical energy filled with unending power made their mouths slightly dry.
The divine light of the golden elixir nearly had this hypnotic pull. Zexi and Master Xing almost wanted to go into an immediate trance from just looking into these elixirs.
Master Xing's lips slightly quivered as he said, "The-the golden blood of the divine spirit! It's actually in your hands!"
"From courtesy of our lovely guests. I suppose they really wanted everything themselves, considering the number they have on themselves." Cain lightly chuckled as he spoke.
The lightning Rocs treated this with far higher gravity. Their expression was briefly engulfed with joy. Knowing this was enough golden blood to complete their mission.
But at the same time, the implications of gaining these vials mean hard times for the near future.
Master Xing was slightly worried as he said, "It really is good that you managed to gain this. But...the retaliation from both sects will be fierce. Thankfully, Pan and Yi were far lower tier Decree Lords. But even with this, they're still immensely value across their homelands."
"Ah..." Zexi shook her head with a wry smile. "Let's not forget their vicious personalities. They certainly won't accept losing to the 'inferior' holy land."
Cain's lips curled into his usual calming smile. "Don't fret about any retaliation. It's not as if we'll get harassed by any elder senior. And those on our level will be handled by me. Let's just focus on ourselves. With the number of vials here, I'm sure we can spare an extra one for ourselves, no?"
Since Cain's confidence was overwhelming, Zexi and Master Xing could only go with the flow.
Contemplation soon crossed Master Xing's face. His gaze swept through the golden vials for a moment and eventually nodded. "Our mission requirement actually isn't that high. It's acceptable for us to spare one for personal use."
"Perfect." With a nod, Cain kept a golden vial for himself and tossed one to Zexi and the rest to Master Xing. "Alright. You can decide what to do with the rest. I'll go cultivate. I have the feeling of coming across a good breakthrough. There is an empty chamber I can use, right?"
"Of course. I'll have Zexi show you where our luxurious private quarters are." Master Xing nodded while carefully caressing the golden vials. He treated them as if they would break at any second.
"Hehe~! Let's go! I'm sure we both can't wait to get down and cultivate this special blood." Zexi eagerly spoke.
She quickly took the lead as she showed Cain out of the meeting chamber.
Left all alone, Master Xing crashed down to his ass. A great sigh escaped his lips. His mind continually wondered an ever-present question.
With Cain around, just how much will change? Just will happen to their Holy Lands?
...
The flight was quick for Cain. In only a few minutes, Zexi showed him to a free hidden chamber.
Even as they reached the chamber, Cain decided to spend slightly more time with Zexi. Her overflowing charm and blunt attitude were quite amusing to be around. Talking about the laws simply felt natural with her.
Soon enough, after exchanging last pleasantries, Zexi left for her own cultivation.
Cain instantly got down to business once alone. In a meditative state, he brought out the golden vials. Now, his divine sense can do a thorough scan of this so-called golden blood.
And in mere moments, a strange expression slowly emerged on his face.
Intense and oddly enough, familiar sensations rippled through his Spiritual Seas.
Cain's normally calm disposition shattered. His complexion even turned a bit pale.
This so-called golden blood exuded a sensation he had experienced in a horror a long time ago. Back during his first steps into the divine world.
When he was in the Thunderous Collision Realm, at the end of the event, he and his group had encountered a terrifying enemy.
A mysterious hooded cultivator that could control the worldly laws with utter ease and took direct control of one of the most dangerous, ancient beasts of the past.
In their battle, for a very brief moment, Cain and his group had managed to use all of their artifacts to land a critical injury upon the hooded man.
Cain was unable to get a look at the man's true appearance. But he did perceive the sensations his blood exuded while spewing out of his body.
Such sensations were the very cause of his pale face. His divine Spiritual Sea made zero mistakes in his memories.
