Dark Phoenix Prince

Chapter 86: Rena's Secret

"Congratulations on breaking through to the second layer of the Life and Death stage." Alu then congratulated when Rena opened her eyes.

"This is very lacking compared to you." Rena shook her head in response.

What Rena meant was naturally an increase in her spiritual source.

After breaking through to the second layer of Life and Death stage, Rena's spiritual source instantly reached fourteen thousand spiritual sources.

But Rena looks dissatisfied because compared to Alu, she still lacks a few points.

And it was also because she was cultivating with energy balls. Otherwise, her spiritual source would definitely be less than that.

"Well, but with your law of killing, the amount of spiritual sources doesn't have much effect on your strength either." Replied Alu.

"But I will be weak in direct combat."

"Hey, compared to ordinary people, your spiritual source is still very high. If you can get something extraordinary, you still have a chance to increase the foundation of your spiritual source."

"Hopefully so."

"By the way, Alu." Rena suddenly looked Alu's eyes quite sharply.

"You stared at me for so long while I was cultivating, is there something?" She asked.

Alu was not surprised by Rena's question because Alu knew that Rena must have noticed her gaze.

Alu then answered. "Why? Can't I look at someone sitting across from me?"

Alu spoke in a slightly indifferent tone.

"Not." Rena shook her head. "This just kind of surprised me."

"Nothing surprising."

"Then." Rena spoke once again.

"Am I beautiful?" She asked.

And when she asked, she also showed a smile that was more than usual.

Alu was a little surprised when he saw Rena's smile because he didn't expect that Rena could smile like that too.

But Alu still answered in a slightly indifferent tone.

"You are beautiful!" Alu only said one sentence and nothing more.

"Very well, Miss Rena. Aren't we going to talk about cultivation." Alu added.

When she heard Alu's answer, Rena, who was initially smiling, quickly changed her expression. She looks indifferent now.

"This woman seems to have something." Alu said to himself.

He is not someone without emotional intelligence. Rena's actions naturally led him to make a few guesses. But he really didn't understand what made that happen.

"Alu, I wonder if you really are Phoenix?" Rena then asked while Alu was thinking.

However, Alu answered her question by shaking his head.

"I will not answer this question." Replied Alu.

Rena seems to have guessed Alu's answer. So, she immediately asked another question.

"I am very curious about your flames. How many laws are there in your flames, and what laws are they?"

"Mm, there are a few." Alu replied in a relaxed tone. "But what stands out above the law of fire itself is the law of darkness, death and destruction."

"Wow." Even Rena couldn't help being shocked when she heard Alu's words.

"I didn't think you could achieve that." She says.

Alu only smiled in response.

After that, Rena started asking other questions. Most of the questions she asks are still related to Alu's flames. And Alu answered everything he could answer.

Some time later, it was Alu's turn to ask.

Alu's questions were almost all about Rena's killing law.

And Rena answered Alu's question quite casually.

She explained the various mysteries of the law of killing. And she even shared some secrets of the law of killing, which shocked Alu. He did not think that Rena would explain so many things.

Besides that, apart from asking about cultivation, Alu also asked some questions about Rena's life. And to Alu's surprise, Rena actually still answered that question.

When Alu asked about the Dark Moon clan, Alu got an answer that made him really shocked.

"I'm not actually from the Dark Moon clan."

Rena's answer really surprised Alu.

"Then?"

"I'm not actually from this place or this domain." Rena replied.

When she said that, Rena's expression almost turned gloomy. She seems to have an unpleasant past.

But she doesn't tell Alu her past and background.

She only said a few things like why she was able to join the Dark Moon clan.

"The leader of the Dark Moon clan used to be a friend of a person I have a relationship with."

"..."

Apart from that, she also told Alu something that made Alu even more surprised.

"So, before you comprehend the law of killing, your cultivation talent was quite ordinary?"

"That's right! I just find it easier to cultivate since I comprehend the law of killing. And I comprehend it when I was in the Holy Light continent." Rena replied.

"Why are you telling me all this?"

Now, Alu began to wonder why Rena could easily tell something that could be said to be a secret.

"Nothing. Maybe I'm starting to think we're friends." Rena answered in a soft tone.

"..." Alu

"Well, now I want to know what enables you to comprehend the law of killing?" Alu asked.

"From your explanation of the conditions for comprehending the law of killing, I don't think a young girl like you can just comprehend it."

After all, there were so many experienced Assassins who couldn't comprehend it. And even if they comprehend it, they could basically only comprehend a few things. They are not like Rena who can be said to have mastered it.

"Motivation!" Rena answered with one sentence.

"Motivation?"

"Right! I can comprehend it because there was one moment that made me really motivated." Rena explained.

And when she said that, she suddenly looked at Alu with deep eyes.

Alu felt like Rena's gaze was hiding a hidden meaning.

But Alu did not ask any further because he knew that Rena would not answer any further.

"By the way, Miss Rena..." Alu wanted to ask another question but before he finished speaking, Rena suddenly cut his words.

She then said. "Can you just call me Rena."

"Oh." Alu looked at Rena with astonished eyes.

But Rena just kept quiet.

"Well, all right, Rena." Said Alu.

After saying that, Alu continued his questioning.

"So, Rena, after exiting the holy path, where will you go? Are you going to join the Spiritual Academy?" Asked Alu.

"Not." Rena answered directly.

"I'll just go around and open up assassination services. It's better to increase my strength. When I'm strong enough, I'll go where I'm from."

....

While chatting, Alu and Rena also continue to suck spiritual energy from the energy balls around them.

Besides, when they were chatting, there were many bursts of aura around them as one by one the people cultivating in the independent world broke through to the second layer of Life and Death.

Alu and Rena chatted for nearly two hours before stopping. They stopped of course because something was bothering them.

They suddenly felt some aura coming from outside.

"They're really back." Said Rena with a faint smile.

"Well, they seem to have found quite a strong backer." Replied Alu.

"But this isn't bad either. At least I have something to warm up to after this increase in strength."

Alu smiled as he looked at his two hands.

After two hours of cultivation, Alu's cultivation had already reached the peak of the second layer of the Life and Death stage.

...

What did you think while reading this chapter? Will there be romance? Well, that's not something I can decide.

Only time will tell.

Ijust want to make a story that flows like a river. What happened will happen, and what won't happen will never happen.

However, there is one thing I can confirm, Alu will remain a selfish figure.

Andthe women who stand out in this novel, they will never be women blind in love.
