Death... and me

Chapter 2772: Great Kentucky

The surroundings were completely silent, everyone not being able to speak as they thought about the revelation. Even the twins' group was no different. Soul Gem left after recovering his soul and building a body. But even to that point, he still hasn't told them anything related to that. They have always thought Soul Gem to be someone from this Universe.

'He truly knows how to keep a secret,' Rean commented through the soul connection.

'Indeed,' Roan agreed. 'That would also explain why he knew how to build a formation capable of destroying the Extinction Sphere. Besides, Sister Orb was the one who gave the Control Orb to him so he could build that formation. That means Sister Orb was also aware of his origins.'

[I can't deny that fact,] Sister Orb spoke. [After all, I'm... I was the Universe's Sentience. There was no way someone would enter it, and I couldn't tell. Too bad I don't have the memories anymore. Hahaha!]

Rean was speechless. 'Is that a reason to laugh?'

[Of course!] Sister Orb seemed happy. [Did you forget why I got all my memories sealed and joined the Control Orb? I was bored! Now, look at everything that is happening. So many interesting events, revelations, and actions. I will definitely do my best to help you fix the Universe, but it doesn't change the fact I'm definitely feeling entertained.]

The twins simply decided to ignore the idiot orb and focus on the happening ahead. However, they were only Peak Stage Space-Time Realm experts. At this moment, they didn't have the right to intervene in this conversation, and it wouldn't be wise to do so, either.

If looks could kill, Soul Gem would have died a hundred times over. Not only Leandro but all members of the Vruve Organization that came this time around looked at him with murderous gazes. "You..."

"What about him?" Gragatou took out his weapon and pointed at Leandro and the other members of the Vruve Organization. "So your plan was to bring the entire Universe down from the very start, uh?"

Kafan joined him. "So much shit happened because of the Extinction Sphere. And now, we just found out it was nothing more than you trying to help a spoiled brat from somewhere else."

"How dare you speak of her highness like that! A little piece of shit from a broken Universe in the middle of nowhere. It is this Universe's honor to die for Her Highness' sake!" Toval shouted on Leandro's side. Since the truth was in the open, they didn't need to hide Tuana's position anymore. He went straight into her highness.

Xude quickly added. "If not for Soul Gem, nothing of this would be happening now. How about this? If you let us have the traitor, once we acquire the Chaos Origin Source and return to Turmaloid, we will bring everyone in the Space-Time Realm and above with us. In our Universe, reaching the Celestial Realm is possible. That's all you guys always wanted, right? We can accommodate a few useful fellows."

Once again, the area went into an uproar. Celestial Realm! That's the dream of pretty much all Semi-Celestials. However...

"Hahaha!" Kafan began to laugh out hard. "How ridiculous! Truly ridiculous! If such an offer had been on the table all this time, you wouldn't have waited until now to put it out. Why didn't you contact us back when the Extinction Sphere was growing? I'm sure quite a few of the Semi-Celesitals alive back then would have accepted the offer."

The small doubt that appeared in everyone's mind for a moment instantly disappeared. Kafan was right. The best moment to put out such an offer was back when the Extinction Sphere was growing. The Vruve Organization, which was Soul Gem's organization back then, most likely wouldn't be able to destroy the Extinction Sphere as they did. It simply made no sense to offer this now. That was a trap, and they would be dead if they truly accepted it.

Xude's expression turned dark. He couldn't refute Kafan's words even if he wanted. Regardless of the excuse he could up now, no one would believe him. Why? Because Kafan was right. There had never been any intention of bringing anyone from this Universe with them. Everyone would only die, period.

The tension in the area began to escalate. It was as if any wrong move would start a battle between the three Higher Realms and the Vruves at any moment.

The twins watched that and also said nothing. There wasn't much they could do anyway. It wasn't a level of battle that could make any meaningful difference.

Yet, it was at that moment that a Minokawa drifted in between the Three Higher Realms and the Vruves. "Ahem... how about we stop this and be friends instead?"

Rean and Roan felt like vomiting blood. It was Kentucky!

'What the hell is the chicken thinking?!' Roan cursed in his mind.

'How will I know? Be friends? There is no way anyone would be friends in this situation!' Rean wasn't feeling any better.

Leandro saw the Minokawa and snorted. "Why is there an ant meddling in this?"

He prepared to attack. Kentucky would easily die with their difference in cultivation. However, it was then that Kentucky spoke. "Errr... I mean. We are in the Grape Vortex, aren't we? At the moment, this thing is weakening the Universe. I don't know what the Vruves of the three Higher Realms will decide after everything that happened. However, one thing is certain. The way things are going, the ones who will obtain the Chaos Origin Source are neither the Vruves nor the Three Higher Realms. It's the guys waiting for the Universe to collapse outside."

The boiling tension instantly froze once again. Indeed, this conflict wouldn't help any of the sides. The only ones to gain from it are the invaders.

Kentucky then flew back to Rean and Roan's side as if nothing had happened. "So annoying. They can't even see the obvious. Fortunately for them, the Great Kentucky was here to open

their eyes."

Rean bitterly smiled. "All hail the Great Kentucky."
