"Bana!"
Ku Ji took a step forward and, as if dealing with a family mber, fiercely hugged Bana’s shoulders.
Bana countered with a punch, feeling the real touch of flesh and blood, and wept with joy.
"Eek! Your bond is so strong!"
GuaGua said, sowhat surprised, while blinking adorably.
Wiping away her tears, Bana said with laughter through her sobs,
"After accepting the origin, we, the Seven Virtues, beca as close as blood is to water. After going through so hardships, we naturally grew closer."
"So that’s how it is."
Ye Liuying, who also erged from the stone gate, heard this and said with a light smile,
"Ye Hanjun, Bana and I were watching from outside Fla Lotus Mountain when we saw a trendous explosion that shook the heavens and earth."
"Just as I thought, the King of Rage is destroyed at your hands. If there are any leftovers of his regret in this world, he would surely lant the humiliation of a demon’s life."
"Let him be a demon or a ghost; it makes no difference."
Ye Hanjun, unfazed, invited Ku Ji with a wave,
"Brother Ku, shall we join forces?"
"After holding back for so long, not venting properly will make one ill."
"Ku has precisely this intention! Mr. Ye, please lead the way!"
With a loud laugh, Ku Ji mounted the back of the Mountain Moving Ant King and roared arrogantly,
"Kill!"
"The elites of the Primordial Dragon Demon are all gathered here; letting them go would be leaving a hidden disaster!"
...
On that day, the burning Fla of Rage across the mountains paled in comparison.
Ye Hanjun held Sword Thunder Child, accompanied by Mu Yi.
Ku Ji rode the Mountain Moving Ant King, joining forces with the hidden-edge Rhino.
It was their first cooperation, but their synergy was impeccable.
The Primordial Dragon Demons who had achieved Supre Sacred Great Achievent were the hardest to kill; they lured them in and did everything possible to prevent them from self-exploding.
The weaker ones with Minor Saintly Perfection and Sacred Voidal Conduit, t their demise, given no chance to catch a breath.
Soon, Ye Hanjun sealed several bodies of Primordial Dragon Demons, and the depleted Flesh Furnace, Soul Spring, once again had fuel.
Ku Ji successfully washed away years of pain and, from a fallen man, he erged as a true na of the Sealing Emperor.
"Clap, clap, clap—"
From the mountainside of Fla Lotus Mountain, Lie Xinxin, who slipped out from the mountain belly, clapped three tis, showing approval.
Then, facing Ku Ji, she revealed a mysterious smile,
"Mr. Ku, shouldn’t you fulfill our agreent now?"
"Of course."
Ku Ji, calming down from his feelings of revenge, reached straight for his spatial pouch at his waist.
Under the watchful eyes of all, he retrieved two items and placed them side by side on the ground, stepping back three steps himself.
"Mr. Ye, I still do not fully understand you as a person."
"But Xin has saved more than once, and I can never repay the gratitude I’ve accumulated in this lifeti."
Ku Ji suddenly beca very serious,
"These are the magical weapons you wanted; I offer them both."
"I hope, as you and Xin said, that it is for your own use and not for taking the side of the Seven Deadly Sins Demon Clan, turning a blind eye to the suffering of the Human Race."
"Hm?" Ye Hanjun was slightly taken aback.
The objects on the ground were indeed the magical weapons he wanted.
But, in addition to the Whip of Lust, there was also a pair of deep red wings.
Bana was also extrely shocked and asked in confusion,
"Ku Ji, how do you also have the Wings of Rage?"
"It’s a long story."
Ku Ji shook his head, his eyes filled with a trace of sorrow,
"I wanted to rescue Charm when I learned she was in danger, to help her escape."
"But I was too late. When I arrived, all I found were bones everywhere."
"Charm buried the King of Greed by herself, her boldness, her fearlessness, I will always rember."
Ku Ji sighed, then lifted his spirits again and said,
"It was precisely because I was carrying both the Whip of Lust and the Wings of Rage that I was frantically pursued by the King of Rage."
"Had he obtained this magical weapon, given ti, a Half-Step Deity level King of Rage could erge. I dare not imagine what chaos the Realm of Desire would have beco, and to what extent the Human Race would be miserable..."
As if moved by his words, Bana also sighed, her face filled with wistfulness and helplessness,
"Ku Ji, would you like to beco a follower of Mr. Ye too?"
"Combining our efforts might give us more hope than standing alone."
"No."
When the subject ca up, Ku Ji imdiately refused,
"Bana, you have your choices, I have my convictions."
"After elevating to Crown Rank authority, I’ve thought it all through. From now on, I want to follow my own path."
"Whether I can ever co close to the heights of the rciful Ancestor or not, I will march on without looking back until the fire of life truly goes out. Nature will then select the next successor..."
"Alright then."
After a while, Bana nodded, "Good luck to you."
"And to you as well."
Ku Ji clasped his hands together and said earnestly,
"Mr. Ye, this is where we part."
"I hope the next ti I hear of you, the Seven Deadly Sins Demon Clan will be under your rule, their ferocity curbed, no longer brutally harming the Human Race without restraint."
...
Watching the receding figure of Ku Ji, Ye Hanjun remained silent.
This man had an extraordinary will, and he might accomplish great things in the future.
Their fates were intertwined at this mont; it was either a beginning or an end.
But... who can say what the future holds?
It was a grand wish that neither a Crown Rank nor Divine Enthronent could achieve, and there was no need for him to get involved.
"Aegifura, you’ve got your magical weapon."
Ye Hanjun shook off the ssy thoughts and lit up the Purple Jade mark at the position of his heart.
As usual, the first thing summoned was not a creature, but a bed.
Upon the loud thump of the bed landing, its four solid legs testified to the quality.
"Oh, just leave it there."
Aegifura lifted the bed curtains, took a glance, and continued with her makeup.
