Is that a Wisp? Chapter 726: Visits

Krune stayed for a few days in the Wisp Main World. Sure enough, several experts from the Dalin Universe began to appear there. After all, Krune had disappeared a long time ago with Iem. Now that he reappeared, he was already in the Divinity Realm and had a strength that far surpassed those at his level.

The first one was the Dalin Management Supervisor, which was part of the Retaking Alliance. Obviously, he was also trapped inside because of Dalin’s sudden closure.

Krune didn’t mind it and went to see him. Cinty, as the Wisp Queen, did the same thing.

“Norzulun Odgas, I didn’t expect you to see us after so many years.”

Norzulun could feel the sarcasm in Cinty’s voice. He didn’t find it strange, though. One must remember that they had once tried to kill Cinty by using the Stellar Needle. 

“You know very well why I came here. It was for Krune.”

Krune shrugged his shoulders before saying.

“Shouldn’t you be more worried about the war instead? Our Wisp Race has decided to not join any side, nor will we.”

Norzulun nodded.

“Then that’s good. I’m here because I received the message about your return and especially your power. Although you can’t affect anything on a large scale alone, it would still disrupt the balance if you, Cinty, Liriu, and the rest of the Divinity Realm cultivators of the Wisp World joined too.”

Krune shook his head, not minding it too much.

“Well, if that’s all you’re afraid about, then there is no need to worry. However, one thing is puzzling me. As far as I know, neither side talked to us because we didn’t have the power to make any difference. What makes you think that all of us together would make a difference now?”

Norzulun simply pointed at Krune.

“You, of course. You disappeared and then came back during the war. I can’t help but think that you want to intervene. Cinty and the others don’t scare me as much as you. Especially if you suddenly decide to make Purple Flames Equipment for the Home Alliance.”

Krune understood. Indeed, if he began to make Purple Flame Equipment of the Divinity Stars Level, that would be enough to disrupt their advantage. After all, Little Arty told him that the Retaking Alliance was on the winning side at the moment.

“Don’t worry. I won’t make any Purple Flame equipment for anyone. I have no intention of putting the Wisp Race in the middle of this mess. If you win, the Wisp World will continue to be part of your Dalin. If you lose, the Wisp World will simply be another part of the new Dalin. Simple as that.”

Norzulun nodded, satisfied.

“If that’s the case, then I’m relieved. I’ll take my leave now. Oh, right! Would you mind telling me where you have been since you disappeared? Or, to be more specific, did you really disappear, or was it Wally who hid you?”

Sure enough, everyone still thought that what happened had something to do with Wally. 

Krune then smiled as he shrugged his shoulders.

“I’ll leave it up to your imagination.”

Norzulun narrowed his eyes but didn’t ask anything else. He already confirmed what he wanted to know. As long as the Wisp World, or Krune, didn’t join the Home Alliance, that would be enough.

“Oh, right! We don’t want you to join the Home Alliance, but our Retaking Alliance would be incredibly pleased to have you and your Purple Flame Equipment. We can even offer several advantages once we win this war.”

Cinty was the one to shake her head.

“Even though you guys are on the winning side, it isn’t that big of an advantage. If we really join you and lose in the end, the new administration will get rid of our Wisp World. We will not take risks. Our Wisp Race will remain neutral until the end of this war. Well, we have always been neutral about everything anyway.”

Norzulun wasn’t surprised by that. It’s just that it didn’t hurt to try.

After Norzulun left, another group arrived at the Wisp Main World. It was the Turo Clan, Iem Turo’s own Sect. One could already imagine why they came to see Krune this time around. The Turo Sect and Norzulun’s forces met outside the Wisp World. One was part of the Retaking Alliance, while the other was from the Home Alliance. However, the Wisp Territory was considered a neutral field. No battle could happen there.

“Hmph! Let’s go.”

Norzulun then opened a Spatial Gate and left without a word. What they had to say was said a long time ago when the war started. There was no point in a conversation now.

The Turo Sect didn’t mind that and returned their focus to the Wisp Main World. They soon came down and met with Krune and Cinty once again.

“Hello, Krune. I’m Malaze Turo, the Turo Sect Head.”

Krune nodded with a smile.

“Welcome to the Wisp World, Senior Malaze. Did you come to ask about Iem?”

Malaze nodded his head. That was basically the only reason for their visit.

“Yes. Iem is our Dalin Universe’s Heavenly Core Owner, after all. We’ve obtained no news from him ever since his disappearance. However, now that I look at you, I’m quite relieved. Would you mind telling us where you two have been sent? Also, why didn’t he come back with you?”

Krune then began to explain what happened. Not that he wanted to, but because Iem himself requested him to do so. It seemed like Iem had a few people in the Turo Sect that he still cared about. Of course, Krune left outside things that shouldn’t be mentioned.

“What, you two were sent to the realm above? This…”

“But how did you come down? Wasn’t it supposed to be impossible? Wait, did you use the same method as Wally? Does it mean that Wisps can really come down without paying any price?”

Krune couldn’t help but laugh out loud.

“Hahaha! There is no way that it could be true, don’t you think? You are committing a big mistake here. What cultivation do I have now?”

Malaze immediately replied.

“4th Stage of the Divinity Realm.”

Krune nodded.

“Exactly. I did not surpass the limit of the Mortal Realm. That’s why I didn’t receive any backlash. Even so, the travel back to the Mortal Realm was really terrifying, with a very high chance of death. However, I had my whole family down here, so I had to try. Besides, the method I used to do it can’t be used by any other person or demon beast anymore. That also includes other wisps. It was a one time chance that I got.”

“To be honest, I didn’t want to talk about it to you at all. However, it was Iem’s personal request to tell you about it.”

Krune then took a medallion from his Spatial Ring and passed it to Malaze.

“The Ancestor’s Medallion. Iem had received it when he became one of the Heavenly Fragment owners.”

Krune nodded.

“With this medallion, I can make one request to the Turo Sect.”

Malaze then took the medallion back and sighed.

“Yes. As long as it is within the Turo Sect’s power, we will fulfill this request.”

Krune nodded, satisfied. He could see how serious this medallion’s existence was for the Turo Sect.

‘It seems like Iem wasn’t lying about the power of this Medallion.’

“The reason I agreed to tell you the truth was because of this medallion. My request is one and only one. Today’s conversation will not leave this room. You should not tell anyone about the Higher Realms and the fact that I came from there. It would be very annoying if word spread.”

Malaze and the elders on his side nodded with resolute expressions.

“Yes. With that, our debt is paid.”

Krune then continued.

“Very well, let me tell you more about the things we went through together up there.”

After a few hours, Krune finally finished telling the whole story to the point where he came back to the Mortal Realm.

Malaze and the others were shocked but excited at the same time. Iem had reached the 2nd Stage of the Divinity Realm by the time Krune came back. That was great news for them. 

“I can tell why he doesn’t want to come back. With such a heavenly place to cultivate, I wouldn’t come back either. That child is a battle maniac who’s always training, so the Godly Path Realm is perfect for him.”

Krune then asked.

“I couldn’t do anything about his decisions. He was dead set on staying in that place. However, won’t it be bad for you if he doesn’t come back?”

Malaze shrugged his shoulders.

“Well, what can we do about that? Anyway, if we ascend one day, we might go to the Sky Shifting Sect and ask him to give us shelter. So it isn’t all that bad that he stayed.”

Krune smiled after hearing that. No wonder Iem still cared about his clan. It seemed to be a perfect place during his growth.

“What about Iem’s parents?”

Malaze shook his head.

“They died a long time ago. It was before Iem became a Heavenly Core Owner. At the moment, there are only us here.”

Krune nodded, not asking further questions about that topic.

“Very well, then. Take this with you.”

Krune threw a Purple Token to Malaze.

“This is?”

Krune explained.

“I can’t bring Iem back, but I can offer some help in the future. If a day comes that you need help, you can do that here in the Wisp World. We might only have measly power compared to others, but we will do what we can.”

Malaze nodded as he put the token in his Spatial Ring. He already found out about Krune’s power from the reports, so this token might really come in handy in the future.

“Alright then, we will take our leave.”

Krune nodded and saw them off.

These kinds of visits continued for a few days until finally, everyone understood that the wisp race would not take any side.

“Time to go to the Elemental Dimensional Realm.”
