Condemning the Heavens-Chapter 583: The Groups Split Up

Chapter 583: The Groups Split Up

Lan spent a few moments to consider the current options they had, and realized that Xue Wei had already found the most suitable path for them to take.

Although they would have to split up for a short period of time, it seemed that now would be the most suitable period to do so.

They could, naturally, also go to find Lan's uncle together, but that would delay Xue Wei's journey to locate the final sovereign beast bloodline, so they were not willing to do so.

Although the intricately planned trap was likely to have been prepared for when he managed to activate all the Sovereign Beast Bloodlines in his body, Xue Wei and Lan both felt that it would be better to have an extra layer of protection than to slow down their advancement.

Their current status was extremely risky, and they had to constantly balance at the edge of life and death. If it was an ordinary life, then they would have been able to determine their fate on their own decisions, but now they would have to consider the consequences, not only for themselves, but they also had to factor in this hidden expert's thoughts.

After having reached an agreement, Lan gave Xue Wei a different spiritual treasure. This treasure was able to allow for them to communicate across the entire world, but the cost for sending such a message was naturally great.

One had to use a very rare type of spirit stone that Lan gave him twelve of, and the treasure would need three days of recharging before it would be able to send out another message.

The message would arrive at the paired treasure immediately, but due to the cost and wait time, it was not something used to send casual messages.

Also, if Xue Wei sent a message and his treasure was on cooldown, it would not be able to receive any messages before the three-day period was over. In a way, this treasure was somewhat useless if given to an ordinary expert, but due to Lan's status as the Sovereign God of this world, he would be able to appear instantly upon receiving a message, and thus he gave the treasure to Xue Wei.

Xue Wei understood that this treasure could be of great assistance to them, especially with their current predicament, and thus he did not stand on ceremony and accepted it instantly.

After discussing the details of their plans, Xue Wei took his friends and began to venture into the forest once more. Although the war was in the final stages, Xue Wei had no intention to stay and see the end, so he had discussed their future travels together with Lan, and found the most suitable way to move towards Dongfang Continent where the White Tiger Clan should be located.

Lan, on the other hand, took Mo Lian and went to look for Hui Yue. They had offered the branch leader to tag along, but after looking at the two groups, he had declined politely.

He was not willing to join Xue Wei's group, as it was clear that they were already as close as family, and he did not feel any urge to follow alongside Lan and Mo Lian, as they used to be lovers. Who knew how much his single heart would be tormented along the way.

"Although we are splitting up now, I am very grateful to you for bringing me out of the Ghost Realm. Although the other ghosts still have a chance to ascend, their journey will be bloody and much more depressing than mine.

"We ghosts are known to be ruthless and coldblooded. We murder without constraint, and we do not mind to backstab those who stand on our side, but this was based on our previous lifestyle.

"When we were in the Ghost Realm, there was simply no other way to survive. You have given me a new lease on life, and I will forever be grateful towards you. While I am not willing to give my life for you, I will do my best to assist you in troubled times, and I can promise not to fight against you."

This was already the best promise that a ghost could give. Although Xue Wei and Lan had led the branch leader out of the Ghost Realm, he had also provided them with help and even made it possible for them to locate Mo Lian that swiftly, so they did not owe one another anything.

When he reached this living world, it made perfect sense for him to split up from their group and slowly find his own path in the world.

Lan was also not disappointed by his decision to split up. He had been working alongside the branch leader for some time, but he had not gotten to a point where he trusted him, nor did he like him very much. To him, he was merely a partner, and now that their business had concluded, they had become a bit more familiar than strangers, but could not be considered friends.

The last ones to set out were Lan and Mo Lian. Neither of them spoke much, but it was clear that Mo Lian had no intention on traveling on her own, and she slowly began to ask questions about her past.

When she was in the Ghost Realm she did not care much for who she was before, but after knowing how important she once was to Lan, and after seeing this living world, she suddenly got curious.

Lan was also patient and explained everything slowly. The things she found more interesting he would explain in great detail, and those she was not too curious about were swiftly glossed over.
