《Death… And Me》Death... And Me

Calina couldn't help but ask after that. "By the way, when did you two decide on that? After all, we all thought that we would keep traveling together."
Rean soon answered Calina's question, saying, "About some time ago. However, we wanted to make sure that everything was prepared for you guys and us. For example, the equipment auction, getting more Zasfins to pretend to be our owners, and things like that."
"I see..." Calina and the others understood that it wasn't a sudden decision.
Rean then laughed in response as he continued, "It's fine, it's fine. Since we're separating now, that means we at least believe you all have the ability to survive on your own even without the support of my skills. Of course, we aren't idiots. Both Roan and I know that there's a good chance that someone might die. Maybe all of us will. In any case, this decision would be for the best for all of us."
"Rean's right." Roan agreed with Rean's words before changing the topic. "Anyway, you all know what will happen, so get ready. The two of us have decided to use the Asume Clan to call out the Soul Rulers after the auction is over."
Malaka then looked at a certain snoring bird on the corner of the room before asking, "What about Kentucky? Are you bringing him with you two?"
Rean pondered a little before looking at Roan, soon responding, "To be honest, we're not that sure. Kentucky is connected to us, so it would be possible to use him to find us in the future. On top of that, we could do the same thing vice versa. However, knowing where we are goes against the idea of everyone separating."
Agis was a lot more straightforward with his words, "What are you talking about? This bird must definitely go with you."
"Why?" Naturally, that was everyone's doubt.
Agis then shrugged his shoulders before pointing at Kentucky, asking everyone else, "Do the rest of you think that you can afford this guy's appetite?"
*Tch...*
Everyone heard Rean click his tongue the moment Agis made that question.
At that moment, Malaka, Calina, Qia, and Frandin felt a chill on their backs. Rean's true objective was as clear as day. All of them simultaneously thought, 'He totally planned to leave Kentucky behind so that he didn't need to feed him either!'
Following that, they shook their heads vigorously. Kentucky was almost a black hole that ate nonstop. There was no way they'd be able to sustain him. Besides, Rean and Roan were the only ones with a Dimensional Realm to hide him if necessary. They would go bankrupt very soon if he stayed with them.

"Sigh...fine!" said Rean eventually with a grim expression. "We'll bring him with us. Why can't you at least share a bit of the fat bird's burden?"
Agis and company immediately looked away, pretending they didn't hear anything. As for Roan, well...providing resources had always been Rean's job, so he didn't care about what choice was made.
The auction would happen the next day, so instead of training or doing anything like that, everyone spent the day having fun. Well, Roan was basically dragged along against his will, though. Eventually, the auction day arrived, with Rean and Roan using Clad and Firmel's help to put all his Earth Peak-Level Equipments for sale.
Naturally, that immediately caused an uproar. Well, it wasn't because it was rare to see them, but because there were never so many available at once. Usually, a weapon at that level would only appear every three or four auctions, and they were always bought by Nascent Soul Realm cultivators. However, there were eight of them, so even the Core and Soul Fusion Realm participants had some hope of acquiring one of them.
Of course, due to the high number of weapons, their price was also less than Rean's first Earth Peak-Level Sword. The one that sold for the highest price was a Water Element Spear, which went for 5200 Rank Three Spirit Stones. In the end, Rean still made a little over 32000 Rank Three Spirit Stones.
Clad couldn't help but feel impressed by that. If there was even a little doubt before, it completely disappeared after today. He wasn't a blacksmith, but he wasn't an idiot either. It was easy to see that the weapons Rean put for auction were brand new ones, forged not too long ago. Unless there was some master blacksmith around helping him, it meant that his group made it by themselves. With that, he thought to himself, 'Their group is definitely part of the Unity Celestial Land. At the very least, he's part of a Celestial Land, even if it isn't Unity.'
Following that, Rean's group headed back to the workshop. There, Rean took 20000 of the 32000 he obtained from the auction and distributed them to everyone. This would ensure that they would be fine for quite a while.
"Alright, I'm going to take my Imperial Bloodline Drop now," said Frandin as he took out the vial with the blood.
Roan also took that opportunity to bring out the Magma Flower from the Dimensional Realm, saying, "In that case, I'm going to concoct the Spiritual Rage Pills. My Soul Power is only barely able to make it, but it'll still out help a lot."

Roan found this recipe when Frandin took the Alchemist Exam and brought him into the repository. The Spiritual Rage Pill was quite an overbearing cultivation assistance pill. Unless one was in the Core Formation Realm at the very least, chances were high that their Dantian would explode. Even at the right level, one had to be sure to be prepared for the great influx of Spiritual Energy. The problem was that one's Spiritual Energy would go chaotic, just like when they finished a breakthrough.
On the other hand, this pill could cut at least two entire months of cultivation for a Peak Core Formation Realm cultivator, or even more if used by someone at a lower cultivation level. Roan was only disappointed that there weren't more Magma Flowers. This kind of herb could only be found in a place with a high concentration of Fire Element and Yang Energy, so it was very rare on a planet dominated by snow. Nevertheless, anyone could take it as long as the affinity was neutral, even Yin Element and Energy users. That also explained its very high value.
Frandin was the first one to finish his part, absorbing the Imperial Bloodline Drop completely. Because it was a drop of a low-level member, it wasn't that hard to do so.
"How much did your Soul Power increase after that?" asked Rean, curious.
However, Frandin shook his head, replying, "It doesn't increase my Soul Power directly. What it does is improve my talent for it. I should be able to increase my Soul Power even faster from now on."
A few hours later, Roan finished concocting the Spiritual Rage Pills. It was an incredibly difficult pill to make, with high chances of it failing. However, Roan still had the help of his Soul Gem Cauldron, which could control temperature perfectly. Not to mention that he had the pestle as well. Although it didn't have a mortar from the Soul Gem System, it also had its share of Roan's success.
Roan then took a few bottles of the pills and began to pass them to everyone, saying, "Each bottle has three pills. Fortunately, many seeds were present in the Magma Flowers, so I concocted a few good batches. Always remember to make sure that you don't need to use your Spiritual Energy for the next three days after taking the pill. Otherwise, you wouldn't be able to control the chaotic power inside."
Everyone took the bottles as their eyes glistened. Cutting several months' worth of cultivation was obviously very attractive to anyone. If Roan put the pills up for auction, they would definitely go for tremendously high prices, especially because it was neutral.
Calina then put the bottle away and looked at Roan, asking, "Do you want to hear our plans for when you leave?"
"No." Roan shook his head as he replied, "From now on, you'll only rely on yourselves, so I won't comment on what you guys decide to do."
Calina and the others nodded after that, not finding it surprising.
"What now?"
Roan then looked in the direction of the Asume Clan Estate before saying, "We basically only have to use the thing that can test our Soul Purity in the Asume Clan, and they'll call the Soul Rulers over. However, I want you all to be long gone before that happens. That being said, let's head to the Asume Clan and take Xiria first. You guys will all leave the city after that with Frandin. As long as you have Agis, Frandin, and Xiria, obtaining things from other cities should be easy."
Qia was puzzled after hearing that, asking, "What about Clad? Weren't we supposed to use him too?"
Rean nodded as he answered Qia's question, "Yes. However, he will come with Roan and me. After all, it's a lot easier for you guys to use Xiria than Clad. With the Dimensional Realm, we can deal with anything if things get complicated."
Roan also took the opportunity to give Frandin a pill, telling him, "This is the full antidote for Xiria's poison." Following that, he took out several bottles before continuing, "And these ones are used to keep her poison at bay. There are enough pills here to keep the girl under control for at least two years. After that, you can decide whether it's worth letting her keep following you all or let her leave."
Frandin nodded with a serious expression in response, putting the pill bottles away. With that said, the twins sent everyone into the Dimensional Realm, leaving only Calina and Frandin out. Obviously, they headed straight to the Asume Clan soon after. Once they grabbed Xiria, it would be time for them to journey out by themselves and leave the twins behind.
