Chapter 117 Against Azazel (End)(Chapter Preview)
Kai teleported to a different location the instance Azazel launched himself towards him but no matter where he teleported to, Azazel would come at him as though he knew Kai's location.
There was no way he could defeat Azazel's real form which was at the peak of cultivation while Kai himself was at the imperial spirit realm.
No matter how powerful his weapons were, he simply couldn't defeat him.
Azazel growled in frustration as he wasn't able to land a hit on Kai. Kai on the other hand realized that teleportation wasn't gonna do him much good.
He instead started using his wings to steer and tore through the air as Azazel launched blue fireballs at him.
Kai wanted to counter them with his black flames but since he was in angel form, he couldn't use his demon black flames.
But instead, he had a rather purifying version of those flames as a white fire started to burn in his palms.
Two Phoenix made from the same white flames launched from Kai's palms and tackled Azazel's fireballs.
But instead of destroying the blue balls of fire with pure ruthlessness, the Pheonix slowly merged with the blue flames as it started to change.
The blue turned to white as the fireballs stopped midair. Azazel was stupefied by what he saw as his own attack was turned against him.
Kai directed the newly converted white fireballs towards Azazel. He tried to destroy them with his bare hands but the flames slowly covered his entire body.
He screamed in pain as the flames literally started to purify him. His body turned to dust as the flames vanished.
"If only I could kill you this easily." Kai muttered as his wings vanished and he fell down.
His body landed on the continent's surface with an explosion as he took some deep breaths. Even though he had somehow managed to defeat Azazel, it certainly had not been easy.
But Azazel was far from dead and was still alive in his cage though he was certainly wounded. The white flames and cleansed a small part of his soul and the rest of it was in pain because of it.
But Kai would have to face him later on but he was sure that he won't encounter Azazel for at least a century or two.
"I wonder how much time I have left. With this fight and my other adventures, I probably have a month or so left." Kai muttered to himself before he teleported back to the Northern continent.
"So you are finally back after a day." Mia commented as she was the first one to see Kai.
The snowstorms had stopped a few hours after they had defeated the Subzero lizard. But despite that, the northern continent was still full of hundreds of snow hills and it was easy to lose sight of a person amongst so much snow.
The others also saw him after Mia called his name and surrounded him as they rampaged him with questions.
"Settle down. I will answer your questions one by one." Kai chuckled as they settled down.
He then told them everything from the beginning and they listened carefully without saying anything.
"So now, we won't have any encounters with Azazel for a century or so." Kai finished as the others nodded.
"When will Sahara wake up?" Risea asked as she didn't know that Sahara had lost consciousness because of resurrecting the dead people.
After the people of the Northern continent realized that Azazel wasn't coming back, they cried in joy and went back to their houses.
"You should have seen Mia give her speech." Nezuko said with excitement as Kai raised an eyebrow at Mia who just shrugged.
"I just told them that I was the daughter of the previous king and that I was smuggled to the Western continent so that I won't die and one day come back to rescue and rule the continent. Obviously, I declined the ruling the continent part and they went away saying that they would elect a new king." Mia explained as Kai nodded.
"Now that the fights are out of the picture, I have an important thing to discuss with you all. I have a mission to meet up with my girls and exact our revenge on those who did this to us. So I will have to leave this world in about a month." Kai announced as the girls from the mortal realm gasped.
The others on the other hand frowned at Kai's revelation.
"Originally, I had about six months to a year to stay here but the recent fights burned out that time and now I am left with a month's time before I will have to leave." Kai explained as he saw their expressions.
"So you know what this means?" He then asked the women from the mortal realm as their expressions darkened.
They had about a month to decide whether they wanted to stay on this realm with people they know or whether to leave it all behind and travel to an unknown place with the man they love.
"I will come with you." Nezuko and Yui said at the same time.
Since they didn't have any family members and were like sisters, they agreed to go with him in a heartbeat.
"I want to go too but..." Riang said but stopped as Kia already knew her issue.
She couldn't leave the sect without picking anyone goof enough to man it. But fortunately, Kai had that covered up.
"We can elect Min as the male sect master. As for the female one, I have certain someone in my mind." Kai reassured her as Riang's face brightened.
She nodded in excitement and the group then looked at Kiana.
"Is grandmother leaving?" She quietly asked as Kia nodded. She then took a deep breath and smiled.
"Even though I just reunited with my family a few months back, it feels like I have been with them for a long time. But before that, you and Riang were the ones who actually felt like my home so yes, I am going with you. But before that, I want to spend some time with my family." Kiana said and Kai nodded.
He then stood up and teleported the group back to the sect as they stretched their bodies. Kai then took Kiana and, surprisingly, Levina back to the palace.
It looked as though Levina had grown close to Asahi and wanted to spend some time with her father.
It was understandable since in her previous life, Levina didn't have any family members early on and she got Mariel and the others as her sisters after she became an elemental ruler.
He then went to talk to Watanabe and asked her whether she would leave with him or not. Even though she had answered his question earlier, he still had to officially ask her.
She said yes to him and after that, he went back to the sect to attend to some loose ends. First, he and Riang declared that both of them would be stepping down from their post as the masters of the sects at the same time.
This brought on a huge wave of depression as everyone loved Riang as a mother figure while Kai was their dream boy who they mastu- admired.
"Elder Min would take my place as the male sect master for now and as for the female, you will find that out in a few days.
As they retreated, Kai and Riang saw Min's reaction and he was so overwhelmed that it almost looked comical.
"Who have you chosen as the female sect master?" Riang asked as soon as they were out of hearing range.
"I have chosen as ex sect member to become the sect master. She has probably posted many missions in the mission hall but I deliberately made sure that none of them would reach the sect. She is probably going to visit us after a day or two. She might even come tomorrow." Kai said as Riang's eyes widened.
"You chose Tzu to be the female sect master!" Riang exclaimed as Kai smiled.
The reason for her reaction was simple, Tzu was what someone would consider an asexual person who didn't have any feelings of love for others and simply wanted to raise her cultivation using dual cultivation.
Once she had broken through to the heaven spirit realm, she had left the sect to live in the middle of a forest and hadn't left that place for ages.
But even after that, she had posted missions in the sect through messengers saying that she would give a little 'reward' to any young man who helped her advance in her cultivation.
It was clear as day what that reward meant so Rian g wasn't sure if Kai did the right thing by choosing her.
"Don't about her personality. The last time I visited her I rocked her pretty badly and made her think about her life decisions. When you will meet her, you will understand what I meant." Kai said to her with a smile and she decided to take his word for it.
Since she was too tired to cultivate with him, she just excused herself and left to sleep. Upon coming back to his house, Kai saw that all of his girls were fast asleep.
It looked as though they were too tired since they didn't even put the unconscious Sahara on the bed. Kai sighed and did it himself.
"Usually you are the one who stays awake to keep me company but now you are asleep too. Guess I will watch the starry sky by myself tonight." Kai smiled bitterly as he quietly left the house.
