Chapter 41 The Storm Before The Real Storm(Chapter Preview)
Kai and Mia returned back to the sect and a few days passed by, much to Kai's delight, without any drama.
The group of seven girls, Yui and Kiana returned to Kai's house for another cultivation session.
He had helped all of them reach the hell spirit realm as his demands had gone up. Now he required the people he cultivated with to be at the hell spirit realm or above.
After his cultivation sessions, he cleaned the house and left. Kai wanted to cultivate with Mia but her mental condition was still a little unstable.
It would take her an entire month to recover it and Kai had to wait till then. It was quite ironic, when you are an immortal, years, decades, or even centuries pass by in the blink of an eye.
But when you live life like a mortal, feeling every single second ticking by, a month is quite a long time.
But that wasn't all that happened. A week after Mia and Kai demonstrated their skills, strong wind flew towards the sect, followed by small earthquakes and a few lightning strikes.
Kai and Mia immediately dropped what they were doing and rushed towards the sect's entrance, eyes fully alert.
He looked at Mia and saw his own expression reflected on her face. The wind and these phenomenas were not natural. They were signs of elemental spirits warning them about what was coming and that coming was not a good thing.
"What's the phrase, the storm before the real storm?" He asked looking at Mia, who facepalmed.
"It's the calm before the storm." She said shaking her face in dismay.
"If Izzy heard you, she would have killed you. You spent who-knows-how long time with her and still couldn't learn a quote." She added.
Isabella was the most famous writer in the upper realms. She wrote various recipes for alchemy pills, stories of her own, information about powerful objects and illustrations of them, and many more. Almost every important book in the upper realms was written by her and she was Kai's lover.
He wondered about what Mia said and decided that what she was saying was the truth. Isabella would really kill him if she heard him say what he said.
"Let's forget about that. I think that whatever Junjun and his buddies were planning, is about to implemented. Maybe we should have really kidnapped him instead of joking about it." He said, his eyes completely serious.
"Raiden."
"Gale."
"Seraphina."
"Misty."
"Jade."
He called out his spirits names and one by one, each spirit appeared in front of him. Mia stared at them before hugging Sera.
She knew all of them and Sera was her favorite spirit. She then hugged the other four before retreating back with a serious expression.
"Raiden, go check our surroundings." Kai said in a deadly voice. Raiden was the spirit of the western continent, or in other words, the white tiger spirit of this world was the ruler of the western continent but who cares about details.
Raiden disappeared and appeared back instantly.
"I scouted an army moving towards the sect. They have a 9th stage hell spirit realm cultivator amongst them and all of them are wearing red robes with a symbol of a red flower on them. Junjun is also with them." Raiden told them about everything he saw.
"A red flower and red color robes. It's the red flower sect!" Kai suddenly said with certainty. The red flower sect was famous for its alchemy skills and the red flower, as the name suggests, was their symbol.
"But why would they attack us?" Mia asked. She already believed what Kai said but she didn't understand why they wanted to attack another sect, especially one of the four great sects like the Blue moon sect. The clash between two great sects would not go unsupervised as the Zian family would take action.
"You should have dug around the sect's history. The blue moon sect became a great sect because the previous ruler of the eastern continent, Zian Watanabe, had actually wanted to grant the blue moon sect the right to become a dyal cultivation sect again. But that wasn't possible so she instead granted them an oath that still made sure that the Blue Moon sect remained a great sect.
But her oath didn't extend towards protection but still, even though the other 3 sects didn't like this sect, they still put up with it. But with Junjun mixing in with them, they are going to burn this sect to the ground." Kai explained.
"What are you going to do?" Mia asked the question that was bothering her the most. She knew that if Kai wanted, he could destroy the entire planet with a single slash.
But he was not some dispenser of justice or an evil mastermind. He did things that he wanted, regardless of whether it was evil or not.
"I will let them attack this sect. They will ask the disciples here to either join them, leave the sect, or be slaughtered. In that way, I could easily remove the sect disciples and elders who are not loyal. And I am sure that Junjun has some elders with him and they will show themselves once the attack begins." Kai said and walked back inside, leaving the beasts and Mia to stare at each other. All of them wondering whether what Kai said was true or not.
In reality, he had become a little fond of the Blue moon sect, or in other words, fond of girls like the kind light brown haired Nezuko, the green-haired spark of mischief Yui, the piercing black-eyed Kiana, and even the sect master, Riang, with her cold blue eyes and ocean colored hair.
Maybe things will change, for the better or for the worse. When Junjun's voice echoed through the halls, calling out for everyone to get outside, Kai went with the flow and merged with the crowd.
The moment had come. The attack would now begin and Kai will create a battlefield that will be written in history. A battlefield so bloody that flowers made from blood will bloom for decades.
