Death… And Me

Chapter 2227 What Do You Want?

?

Truth be told, Jeskli-Go was terrorized by Kentucky's cultivation improvement. He wasn't even in the Space Bending Realm the last time he saw him. Yet, knowing he was a Regal Minokawa, he thought it probably had something to do with his bloodline. "Something you need to do here?"

Kentucky nodded. "Yes. But before that, did you really need to come up with all those excuses about Minokawas not caring about me and that they would rather not have me anywhere near the Minokawas' Territory? You could have just told me about the dangers of coming back instead."

Jeskli-Go sighed in response. "Minokawas are lazy and daring, so I thought you might get angry and come here just because you wanted to defy those pursuing you. Now lo and behold, here you are after this idiot called Werin-Ou told you the truth."

"Sorry, elder. It was my fault," Werin didn't dare complain.

Rean raised his hand. "Senior, we didn't come here because we were not afraid of Kentucky's pursuers. Instead, we truly have an objective. We need to go to the Center of the Floating Islands of Time. No one wasn't even supposed to know we were here. First of all, why did Werin tell you about us?"

Werin scratched the back of his head. "I didn't really say anything. I just mentioned that I was helped by two humans and a Minokawa to him and the other elders. It was Elder Jeskli who guessed who you were and insisted to come and see you. As far as I know, the other elders don't know about it."

Jeskli-Go nodded. "Indeed, the other geezers don't know about it. In any case, a lot of our Minokawas are taking part in the war efforts, even though they hate that idea. That said, I'm the only Divinity Realm Minokawa in this place at the moment, so the others won't do anything without my permission."

Jeskli-Go then touched Kentucky with his wing and checked his body through and through. "Well, at least you were not lying about being able to hide your Regal Bloodline. Even I only faintly noticed it, and I had to get quite close to you, so none of the eyes watching our territory should have picked your presence. Also... it seems like you understood how to use my blood."

Kentucky immediately nodded. "Yes. Thank you for the help, senior Jeskli-Go. Your blood essence allowed me to further unseal my bloodline. After a few hundred years of suffering in Roan's hands, I completely unlocked my bloodline. That's also why I can suppress it this well since I have full control over it." The suffering he was talking about was obviously Roan relentless 'exercises.'

Lily-Yu, who had been hearing everything, was still as lost as ever. "Am I supposed to even be here? What are you guys talking about?"

That was something that puzzled the twins' group. Jeskli-Go didn't seem concerned about hiding their conversation from Lily.

Jeskli-Go looked at Werin, finding it weird. "Haven't you told them about Lily?"

Werin looked away. "I... didn't quite find a good opportunity..."

*Bang!* 

*Ouch!*

Jeskli-Go hit Werin this time. "You were just afraid, idiot. Well, I can't completely blame you since we have never told Lily-Yu about it anyway."

Jeskli then forcefully pulled Kentucky and Lily to each other's side. "Congratulations! You are each others' life partners. I'm expecting you to try very hard and lay as many eggs as possible."

Lily and Kentucky's expressions sank. "What the hell are you talking about?!"

Werin-Ou sighed in response. That's why he refused to say anything until now, especially after they seemed to not get together at all. "Ahem... You see, that is a common thing between us, Minokawas. We check everyone's bloodlines when they are born and see which Minokawas with similar ages are the best match for them. This is one of the reasons why our Minokawa bloodline has always been one of the Divine Demon Beast Bloodlines in the Realm of Gods. Well... congratulations... Lily is just the perfect match for you, Kentucky."

"Similar age?" Rean found it weird. "But Lily is probably way older than Kentucky."

That wasn't a lie. She had the same cultivation as Kentucky, but Kentucky spent a long time in a time-accelerated environment. In a certain way, you could say that the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm approached their ages. Yet, one must not forget that the twins' group cultivation speed far surpasses anyone else. Even if Kentucky spent all that time in the Soul Gem Realm with accelerated time and caught Lily's cultivation, there was no doubt he was still much younger.

Yet, Jeskli-Go shook his head. "What are you talking about? I myself am already 12.6 million years old. What is a few hundred or even a thousand years in the cultivation world? Think about it like this: Proportionally, Kentucky and Lily's age difference is just one or two years in the mortal world."

Jeskli couldn't help but add. "No, wait, am I 12.6 or 12.9 million years old? I can't quite remember anymore. Anyway, I'm something around that." Sure enough, no more lifespan after the Space-Time Realm.

Kentucky immediately pushed Jeskli-Go's wing away and distanced himself. "Don't decide things for me! I'm the great Kentucky, and I shall decide who will be my partner."

Lily did exactly the same thing. "Exactly! I'm definitely not letting his blood mix with mine. Who wants a fat bird's eggs?"

Kentucky's eyes twitched. "The same goes for me! Who wants an old hag's eggs?"

*BANG!*

"You sure are looking for a fight, uh?!"

"Bring it on! Rean got in the way during the last time, so I forgot. I still haven't made you pay for being that disrespectful!"

Jesgli-Go nodded with a satisfied expression. "Already having couple's fights, such a nice pair. Perhaps we can get another Regal Minokawa from this? Yes, I believe it is possible!"

Rean and Roan looked at each other, obviously not knowing what to do there. "Ahem... We can talk about Kentucky's beloved another time-"

"She's not my beloved!" Kentucky immediately retorted.

Rean pretended he didn't hear and continued. "For now, we need to go to the center of the Floating Islands of Time. Would that be a problem?"

Only now Jeskli-Go remembered it. "Right! You said you had a reason to come here. What do you want?"
