There were two people completely red at the moment, one was obvious Feifei. As for the other, it was Wang Xin, Feifei's father. It's just that his redness was for a completely different reason. He was so angry that he was about to explode!
"I'll kill you!"
Wang Xin immediately attacked. In fact, he only wanted to release his anger, not to really kill Krune. After all, he still knows that he and Feifei are inside the Divine Path Sect. But how could Lucio let him have his way?
"Kill who, you say?"
Boom!
Both Lucio and Xin separated immediately after that exchange.
Lucio looked at Wang Xin with a smile and said.
"Why are you so angry? It's mutual love, so is there a need for this?"
Lucio couldn't be happier. Krune had exceeded all his expectations. He felt like he had been avenged from what happened in the past between the two. As mentioned before, both Lucio and Xin loved the same girl, but that girl selected Wang Xin in the end. So he was feeling great to see his disciple snatching Wang Xin's daughter right in front of his eyes.
Wang Xin, of course, wouldn't let it go just like that.
"What mutual love? He obviously took Feifei by surprise! Or do you think that Feifei would ever kiss a wisp, uh?"
Feifei knew that hiding things would be useless now. Her face showed determination, and she called out.
"Father, check this out."
Then... she kissed Krune back, much for Wang Xin's despair!
"Feifei... this..."
Feifei nodded.
"That's excatly what you think. Sect master Lucio isn't wrong, this is really mutual love. I didn't expect it to be revealed in this way, but since things got to this point, then I might as well go all out."
Not to mention that she was really happy with Krune's actions.
Feifei then looked back at Krune with a big smile.
"To be honest, I'm happy that you showed such determination."
Feifei then made a seal with her hands, and right after, the Mark that she gave Krune projected outside.
Wang Xin felt even more helpless when he saw that Krune already had Feifei's marriage mark with him.
He then looked at Lucio and said.
"This is all your doing, right?! It's all because of what happened in the past, this is your way of getting back at me!"
Lucio laughed out loud and said.
"Although I am indeed very happy to see it, I will have to disappoint you. No, Krune and Feifei's relationship goes way back. Of course, I gave my full support when I found about it. Hahahaha!"
Wang Mei, who had been silent until now, then spoke.
"So, that's the reason you talked about?"
Krune nodded.
Feifei and Krune then explained the entire situation from the moment they met each other to now.
Wang Xin didn't know what to say, he then looked at Uncle Feng and asked.
"Why didn't you tell me?"
Uncle Feng shuddered his shoulders and said.
"As you know, my duty was and has always been with Feifei. Without her word, I would not tell it to anyone."
Wang Xin then asked again.
"Alright, I can understand why you haven't told it, but why didn't you try to stop it."
Uncle Feng sighed and said.
"You think I didn't? I tried to convince her thousands of times in the past years. But after we got to the Divine Path Sect, I came to know a few things about Krune. So I can only say that you are definitely not taking the short end of the stick here. As for why is that, I can't tell you."
Krune wasn't surprised that Uncle Feng had tried to change Feifei's mind in the past. But he felt quite happy to see that he approved it now.
Wang Mei looked at Feifei and said.
"Feifei, you know about the wisps' life span, right? Are you really okay with it?"
Feifei nodded.
"I am! First of all, Life span isn't a problem for Krune at the moment anyway. He is already at the 4th stage of the Core Formation Realm and still has 29 years ahead of him. I have no doubt that he can reach the Divine Path Realm as long as he survives."
Wang Xin then tried to convince her again.
"Feifei, I will never allow you to marry into another power."
Feifei and Krune looked at each other and then laughed.
"Don't worry, father. I have no intention of leaving the Wang Clan to start with."
Both Mei and Xin were taken aback.
"Does it mean that Krune will marry into our clan?"
Lucio immediately snorted after hearing that.
"As if I would let that happen."
Wang Mei immediately understood.
"You two don't plan to leave your backgrounds, is it?"
Feifei nodded.
"Why should we? I love my Clan, and Krune likes his Sect, especially his Master."
Both Krune and Lucio almost fainted after that comment from Feifei!
"Who likes this old geezer? We only got together because of his shameless character."
Lucio gave him a side glance and snorted.
"If not for your talent, do you think I would ever get a rainbow wisp as a disciple? You should be thanking the heavens that I'm this big-hearted."
Feifei laughed a little and looked at her father.
"See? They are just made for each other."
Wang Xin's mouth twitched. Where is the love between disciple and Master that she talked about? How come he can't see it?
"Anyway, father, I have no intention of leaving the Clan, so you don't need to worry about me joining another power."
Wang Xin looked at Lucio and asked.
"Are you okay with this?"
Lucio shuddered his shoulders too and said.
"Why shouldn't I? My Divine Path Sect isn't a Clan. As long as our disciples don't betray or harm the Sect, I'm fine with anything. I also think this is a good thing since both sides will have their support in the future. You can deny as much as you want, but at your realm, I refuse to believe that you can't see Krune's real potential. No other cultivator or demon beast in the same realm is stronger than Krune in our Big Four territories. At most, they would be at the same level, but even that I find it hard to think about."
Wang Mei was a lot more cool-headed than Wang Xin, so she could see things further away.
"I understand. Still, it is not a reason good enough for me to trust you. As far as I know, it could all be a trick to fool Feifei and taking away her Heavenly Fragment."
Wang Xin immediately nodded. At least the ancestor is still on his side.
Krune couldn't help but ask.
"Then what would make you believe me?"
Wang mei replied.
"Give me a sliver of your soul, if there comes a day that Feifei dies, I will crush it and end your life too."
Lani immediately intervened.
"You are going too far, Mei."
But before they could discuss this issue, Krune already did as Mei said and sent and cut a sliver of his soul. He then delivered it right on her hands.
Except for Feifei and Lucio, no one expected that Krune would be that daring!
Mei received Krune's sliver of soul and looked at it with surprise in her eyes. She thought that with this one thing alone, she would be able to reveal Krune's real intention. In fact, she succeeded in doing that. However, it was a result entirely different from what Mei intended.
Lani and Uncle Feng sighed after seeing that and knew that it was now too late to stop Krune.
Wang Xin was delighted. As long as they have it, he can deal with Krune any time he wants.
Wang Mei looked at that small piece of Krune's soul with a gloomy face, though.
She then sighed and sent it back to Krune, which then immediately fused back to his soul.
Wang Xin delighted face immediately turned ugly again.
"Ancestor, this..."
Wang Mei immediately cut him off.
"Shut up! If you can't even see his determination after what happened, then you are a failure as a father! This wisp has more guts than any of those people from our territory that you have been sending on Feifei's way. Tell me, which one of them do you think would put their lives on the other's hand without thinking twice just for the sake of the one he loved?"
Wang Xin felt a little embarrassed about being rebuked like that in front of everyone.
"I..."
Wang Mei continued.
"Enough. Feifei already made it clear that she isn't leaving our Clan. Isn't that what you, the elders, protectors, and everyone else wanted? Then so be it."
She then looked serious at Wang Xin and asked.
"If you could marry the one you loved in the end, then why can't your daughter?"
Wang Xin was taken aback by those last words, and it totally affected him deeply! He looked at Feifei and asked one last time.
"Feifei, do you really want him?"
Feifei nodded.
"If not him, then no one else."
Wang Xin sighed and gave up.
"Fine! Don't say that I didn't try to warn you."
Feifei immediately jumped on Wang Xin's embrace after that. She was obviously very happy with her father's approval.
Wang Xin felt gloomy instead, though.
"Just how am I supposed to explain it to your mother?"
Feifei just said.
"Oh! Don't worry, she knows already."
Wang Xin's mouth opened wide!
"She... knows?"
Wang Xin couldn't help but feel like his position as Clan Head was more like a counterfeit. Why is it that he is the last one to know?
Lani then sent a Divine Sense message to Mei.
"That surprised me, the Wang Mei that I know would never act this recklessly. As far as I know, you would definitely keep Krune's life in your hands."
Mei heard that and sighed.
"I guess I'm getting old too. That's all."
Lani couldn't help but laugh at that comment.
Wand Mei then decided to go back to the main topic.
"Well then, now that this is resolved, how should we proceed?"
