Those words made Kong and Hua feel as if all of their blood ranpletely cold. They became frozen stature, seeing Cain as worse than the devil.


    But Cain didn''t take action. He looked at Zexi and said, "However, out of consideration, I''ll leave these two punishments to you. Come to your own conclusion."


    Zexi was in silent contemtion this whole time. Thoughts streaked through her mind. She had to ask Cain, "Those people outside, brother Cain...your perception is far better than mines. Did you sense the mystical me ve essence within them?"


    Cain indifferently nodded. "Indeed. That warmth in their souls is actually the vew essence. The warmth in these two souls acts as the central control for all vew essence. It''s most likely how they got rid of the elders. Bypletely controlling them, there was no contest."


    "You..." Kong and Hua wished they could speak up. But really, nothing could be said to save their cases. They were oppressed by absolute strength.


    It was at this point, Zexi exhaled a long and tired sigh. She turns her body, her shoulders dropping with immense regret. "I had an inkling something was going on when the elders stopped responding to my messages. But I just chose to believe in the positives. I...I don''t want them to live. They already warped and twisted everything from childhood. Might as well kill them and be done with it."


    This was for purely selfish reasons. Zexi really wasn''t a righteous cultivator. But the thought of allowing these two to do as they please, even as they were her childhood friends, disturbed her soul to no end.


    Moreover, once the rose-tinted sses came off, Zexi knew their rtionship as childhood friends was faint at best at this point.


    It wouldn''t even be possible for a reconnection. Her so-called friends would''ve already had her as nothing more than a ve.


    pαпdα-ň?νê|·сóМ "Alright." Cain casually nodded. He flicked out two divine lights of lightning-icews.


    There wasn''t any suspense. Kong and Hua couldn''t evenprehend what had happened. Their foreheads were instantly pierced through. The divine lightning-ice lights vaporized their brains as they tore through their skulls.


    All of their hopes and ambitions are gone. Just because they flew far too close to the sun with high expectations.


    With that done with, Cain promptly turned around and pulled Zexi into his chest.


    "Huh?" The warmth of Cain''s body sent tingles throughout Zexi. Her lips nearly curled into a natural smile.


    But other thoughts kept her mind gloomy. She weakly said, "I''m fine, brother Cain. Just a bit shock how everything changed in an instant."


    Cain simply smiled. He pulled her back to look Zexi in the eyes. "Cultivation really is a merciless moat. Many are willing to do anything just to livefortably or be in a position of power. But, it''s not all bad. The past can stay in the past. And the future is always something to look forward to. And I can say for sure, you still want to explore this glorious future together, right?"


    For a whole moment, there was nothing but silence.


    Zexi was in aplete trance. Her mind was lost as she dazedly looked into Cain''s abyss-like eyes that seemingly held infinite depth.


    Once again, just when she felt the world darken before her, Cain became the beacon of light that pierced through everything.


    It really was confusing to her. The betrayal of her childhood friends still weighed on her mind.


    And yet, her entire simply couldn''t reject Cain. She was far too attached. With the numerous times he saved her life and brought glory to her Holy Land, it was impossible to not get attached.


    Especially after saving her from her former friends and making this promise.


    Many matters swirled in Zexi''s mind. But she still nodded at Cain, a true, natural smile blossoming on her lips. "I-I would like that a lot."


    "Good. Now then..." Cain turned over to the mystical mes and waved out a ck lightning divine seal.


    The divine seal instantly fused into the mystical mes, unleashing waves of suppressivew principles.


    The mystical mes turned dimmer. Its enthralling sensations couldn''t ripple out at full force. Practically turning into nothing more than ordinary mes.


    Cain received the suppressed mystical me into one of his spatial rings. It''s not really rted to his current divinews, but it may turn out useful for other reasons or forprehension purposes.


    "Alright. Let''s get back home." As Cain began to walk out, he silently grasps Zexi''s hand.


    Only a slight tremor shocked Zexi''s body. Her body felt an enthralling warmth that stimted her soul. She smiled, silently epting the intimate gesture.


    Cain and Zexi soon walked out of the temple with calm expressions. They had basically murdered the two leading figures of this small city.


    But, with their statuses and power, not a single person would dare to question them.


    The duo casually walked at first, taking notice of the residents mingling about their days. None of them appeared shaken up at all. Even without Kong, Hua, or the mystical mes.


    The warmth in their souls was fused deep. And yet, it appears for these residents, it had a positive effect on their divine will.


    It was interesting to see. But Cain and Zexi knew these residents'' lives would''ve been drastically changed if Kong and Hua finished their ns.


    Not that it matters in their final decision to kill Kong and Hua. Wanting to enve them and, in such an insidious matter, stepped far over their bottom line.


    The duo soon left the small city in a serene silence.


    Cain didn''t immediately rush back to the Holy Land. With a divine spirit bird mount, he and Zexi took a slower route back.


    Though, it allowed for a more quiet downtime.


    Cain took the quiet time to feel out the naturalws and divine qi of the Central Starfield. Even when cultivating for months already within this environment, he can still discover new findings about divinews.


    Like a never-ending ocean, cultivating never ceases to surprise Cain.


    While Zexi stayed in silent contemtion. Numerous matters swirled in her mind. And one of them stayed at the forefront.


    Everything revolved around the calm and quiet young man sitting right next to her.


    Zexi could feel it in her soul. A yearnful desire that was impossible to suppress. She could tell that a man like Cain has a mysterious origin not really belonging to the Central Starfield. But none of that mattered to her.


    It was hours into their trip. And at this time, Zexi had suddenly grasped Cain''s hand. "Hm?"


    Cain stirred awake. With just a nce, he could tell the multitude of emotions swirling through Zexi by her heated gaze.


    "I-I want you." A slight blush colored Zexi''s cheek. But she was still bold enough to directly state her intention, looking straight into Cain''s eyes. Cain simply smiled.


    There weren''t any more words needed. He gently cusp her chin. His deep ck eyes saw right through Zexi''s soul.


    Swooping down, Cain pulled Zexi into a searing kiss.


    "Mn~!" The spark of pleasure jolted Zexi. Her bloodline was stimted, exuding waves of blissful pleasure essence.


    The essence of her bloodline intertwines with Cain''s Dragon god bloodline. Her yearnful Yin and his roaring Yang essence faintly mixed, dishing out waves of pleasure that tingle their souls.


    Steaming saliva filled with divinity dripped down their chins. A passionate atmosphere began emerging between the two.
