Krune then spent his time cultivation and reinforcing his foundation, he believes that he won't need more than two weeks before it is completed. One night, he decided to ask Light Spirit.
"Back then, you asked me to keep the Elemental Source Energy by the side and only use it for the Core Formation Realm breakthrough. Could it be that you were intending to use it to compact my Soul as well?"
Light Spirit laughed and said.
"Correct! But you sure took some time to remember that, no?"
Krune shook his head.
"There had been so many things happening recently that even I haven't thought much about it. Only during this last week, which has been quite calm did I finally remember those words."
Light Spirit agreed with Krune since he saw everything that was happening first hand.
"It was indeed the case, I was intending to make you use it to get a better breakthrough into the Core Formation Realm. This is a very important moment since it is this moment that will give you your future Divine Soul. But I was expecting to get you to make a semi-perfect breakthrough, not a perfect one. You should really thank your Master for the Awareness Moving Pill."
Krune nodded, but he got puzzled.
"What you mean with semi-perfect breakthorugh?"
Light Spirit noticed that he made a small mistake.
"Oh, I forgot that the names have changed after so long. Simply put, a semi-perfect breakthrough is what your Master called an advanced breakthrough. That one which you need to let your Core absorb 30% of the Soul."
Suddenly, Krune started to sweat cold.
"Th-Then, if I didn't have this Awareness Moving Pill and tried that advanced breakthrough, how would you deal with the conscience issue?"
Light Spirit then laughed out loud.
"Isn't that obvious? Guts! You would need to bear with that by pure will power! Don't worry, I believe you could definitely pass this hurdle."
Krune almost fainted!
"Guts! Your head! Did you want to kill me?"
Light Spirit seemed not to care, though.
"What you talking about? How many times did you temper your Soul already? After using Tribulation Lightning for so long, do you really think you couldn't resist this little? You are looking way too much down on the fact that I'm here together with the Tribulation Lightning. I refuse to believe you couldn't resist a meager loss of 30%."
Krune was still somewhat doubtful, and he couldn't help but think that Light Spirit reminded him of his Master.
"Oh well, whatever. Everything should be fine now."
Light Spirit then said.
"I have no doubts about that! You must remember that I believe you already had the power to resist a 30% of absorption without the Awareness Moving Pill. So it goes without saying that other than the pain, it shouldn't be too hard to enter the Core Formation Realm."
Krune agreed that if what Light Spirit is telling is true, then it might really go as he says.
A week later, Krune received a message from his Master to go see him.
Arriving there, Krune was brought to the living room where his Master asked him a question.
"What is your relationship with the daughter of the Wang Clan's Head?"
Krune was taken aback at that question.
"Wang Clan's Head? The only people I know from the Wang Clan is a girl called Feifei and an old man who stays together with her called Feng."
Lucio's mouth twitched.
"That's exactly the girl I'm talking about!"
Krune's eyes went wide!
"What?! She's the daughter of the Wang Clan's Head?"
Lucio heard that and sighed.
"Aren't wisps supposed to be intelligent? How come you haven't checked that even once after you entered our Sect? You definitely have access to this information if you look into your communicator and connect to our network."
There was a reason why Lucio took this long to make this question. He wanted to ascertain by himself whether Krune was someone sent by the Wang Clan or not. Lucio also sent his own people to investigate this issue through and through. In the end, he finally got to the conclusion that Krune really isn't someone sent by another power to cause problems to them. First of all, to send someone with such a talent would be the most idiotic thing ever! That is also the reason why he didn't mind spending so much on Krune.
Krune then immediately turned to his communicator and searched for the information his Master mentioned. Sure enough, it is said that Feifei is the daughter of the Wang Clan Head, and there were even quite a few pictures of her. Krune was certain, that this is, without a doubt, the Feifei that he knows.
"That's... unexpected."
The promise back then suddenly became several times harder to accomplish. But Krune couldn't help but think.
'Well, that is considering that Feifei still remembers me, which I find quite hard to believe. Sigh...'
It was then that he looked at his Master.
"I didn't know that she was the daughter of the Wang Clan."
Lucio then shook his head and asked.
"Now that you know, can you explain how you know each other?"
Krune nodded and then explained how he came to know Feifei and uncle Feng back in the Makui Planet.
Lucio heard that and was taken aback!
"Marriage? She made you promise that?"
Krune nodded.
"Yes, but Master can rest assured. Feifei was just a kid back then, so she probably already forgot about it by now. It is a little embarrassing, but I believe that I'm the only one who still wants to keep that promise. After I get to talk to her and she confirms my conjecture that she probably doesn't want anything to do with me, I will finally be free to do whatever I want. Of course, I rather she also still likes me and allows me to keep that promise. Haha!"
Lucio sighed once more. He then decided that it was the time to tell Krune about what happened 6 years ago when he encountered Feifei and Feng during his way back to the Sect.
Krune, of course, was surprised that something like that happened.
"What does it all means?"
Lucio shook his head.
"I don't know, but one thing is certain, she definitely hasn't forgotten your promise. In fact, I believe it is because she wants your good that she warned me to take a look at the Exam. If she didn't, she would never send you to me since I can definitely protect you. Of course, as I said, they just told me that someone interesting would try the Entrance Exam, nothing else. So the fact that you joined and that I got you as my disciple was your accomplishment and only yours. There is no need to feel in debt for that since you would have joined the Sect whether I got you as a disciple or not."
Krune went silent for a moment and said.
"It is also true that I got to this point thanks to the Myriad Energies Technique that I got from them back there, so what you said isn't totally right, but isn't totally wrong either. But what can I do now? I can't help but feel excited about the fact that she might really not have forgotten me. Of course, Feifei and uncle Feng met you 6 years ago, so the chances are still that she already forgot me anyway. Haha!"
Although Krune laughed in self-depreciation, Lucio could see that Krune's eyes showed some hope in there. He then sighed and said.
"That's why I called you over, I can guarantee you, not only did she not forget you, she is coming for you now."
Krune took a second to process that information.
"What?! What you mean?"
Lucio then explained about the exchange program that the Big Four always do between each other.
"I just confirmed with the ones taking care of it, Wang Feifei is coming together with another two geniuses of the Wang Clan. The thing is, the Wang Clan rarely send direct descendants of their main family, let alone someone with Feifei status."
Krune got puzzled at that.
"What you mean with 'Feifei status'?"
Lucio then went even further and explained about the issues that they found about Krune's Major Core and how much it looked like Feifei's.
"Such a thing happened?!"
Krune was already feeling numb with all the revelations happening at the same time. Now he just found out that he is immune to Divination too!
Lucio then said.
"I will make it clear. I have no intention of giving you to the Wang Clan, you better remember that!"
Krune then gave a side glance to his Master and said.
"Master, I will make it clear too. I don't like men."
Pow!
Krune was hit once more, but this time, it was his fault.
"Say that again and see if I don't send you directly to hell! Your Master is a very straight man, you better remember that as well!"
Krune nodded and didn't say anything else. Not to mention, he can only think about the fact that Feifei is coming! As for the part where his Master said that he won't give him away to the Wang Clan, Krune doesn't care. With his cultivation at the moment, there is no way that he could do something like marrying Feifei. The Wang Clan wouldn't let that happen at any cost. Especially after what he heard about his and Feifei's Major Core situation. For now, he will just enjoy the moment.
Lucio then asked Krune.
"Do you really like her?"
Krune was taken aback once more.
"Errr... I guess so, at least I do want to stay with her. How can I say it? Ever since I met her back then, I always thought about how good those short moments were. Besides, from what Master said, it seems like Feifei really did mean well to me."
Suddenly, Lucio's eyes shined!
"Then, that makes things easier! I won't give you to the Wang Clan, but that doesn't mean that you can't take her from them. I'm counting on you, young ma- cough, cough, young wisp!"
Krune looked at his Master's joyous face and felt that something wasn't right.
"Why do I feel like this entire conversation guided me into this conclusion?"
Lucio then laughed out loud and said.
"Coincidence, it's just coincidence!"
But deep inside, he was thinking.
'How good will it be if I snatch that blockhead's daughter fair and square? Krune already has his human form, which means that now he can leave behind descendants too. Let's hope that things go this way. Hahahaha!'
It turns out that Wang Xin and Lucio Koffel had some past history together. Of course, it was only on a personal level. It had nothing to do with both the Clan or the Sect as a whole. In fact, almost no one knows about it to start with.
