Death… And Me

Chapter 3145: Hate

Rean healed Zangeshu and let him sleep for four days straight. He could have awakened earlier, but Rean used his Light Element to make sure he didnʼt. That way, he would truly be recovered in both body and mind. When Zangeshu was finally allowed to open his eyes again, he found himself lying on a bolder as Rean and Kentucky watched the scenery in the distance.

”So that is the formation, uh?” Rean commented on Kentuckyʼs side.

”What will you do? Body Transformation?” Kentucky asked back.

Rean shrugged, knowing that it was the safest option. ”Yeah, that should be enough.” Zangeshuʼs eyes opened wide as he watched Rean. His body began to get smaller, silver fur appeared, a pair of horns followed. Rean had suddenly changed into some kind of catman. Even a tail quickly grew on his back. Above all, Zangeshu could feel how Reanʼs humanoid aura disappeared without a trace, now being replaced by a demonic aura instead. If he hadnʼt seen it with his own eyes, Zangeshu would never believe Rean was actually human.

Rean finished his change and sent his clothes into the Celestial Soul Dimensional Realm. He was now smaller than when he was in his human form, so they didnʼt fit. Even if they did, he was in the Demon Beast Territories. Seeing a Demon Beast, even if it was in its humanoid form, using clothes was just asking for attention.

Rean put his arms on his waist and stretched himself. ”How is it, Kentucky? Do I look like a Demon Beast in humanoid form?”

”Sure,” Kentucky nodded. ”You also look quite cute. You arenʼt are good as me when it comes to women, but you would probably attract a few eyes.”

”I have no need for your fan club,” Rean answered. Then, he turned back, seeing Zangeshuʼs shocked face. ”Oh! Finally awaken, uh? How are you feeling?”

Zangeshuʼs mouth twitched. Yes, Rean changed into that weird Catman appearance, but since he didnʼt have clothes, his ʼfamily jewelsʼ were out in the open for anyone to see. ”Great. Not only is my master a sadist, but he is also a pervert who likes to show his genitals around. What kind of fetish is that?”

Rean didnʼt take that to heart as he approached Zangeshu. ”You are just jealous. Even in this small form, my dragon down there is bigger than yours. Donʼt worry, though. With my body transformation technique, you can even grow a real dragon-size penis to please your woman in the future. Consider this a gift of your master for finishing the three days of survival.” If eyes could kill, Rean would have been dead hundreds of times already. ”Fuck you! Who cares about the women! I became your disciple to learn about Circuitry Formations!”

Rean quickly shot back, hiding behind Kentucky with fear in his eyes. ”Donʼt you care about women? I see... so you play on the other team. Itʼs fine. Itʼs fine. Your master does not hold prejudice to anyoneʼs life choices. Just understand that Iʼm married, so we will never work together.”

Zangeshu raised his fist, Lightning Element dancing around it. Even the red color of killing intent began to appear, coming in Reanʼs direction. ”Please, master. One hit, let me land just one hit!”

”Hahaha!” Rean laughed but shook his head in the end. ”Alright, enough with the jokes. Seems like you perfected your Lightning Element control. Try to circulate it inside your body.”

”This...” Only now did Zangeshu notice the change. He closed his eyes, and his Lightning Element moved through his meridians, blood vessels, bones, organs, head, etc... There was no damage being left behind. The Lightning Element inside his body moved exactly as he wished. ”Seems like I didnʼt go through all that shit for nothing.”

Rean nodded, checking Zangeshuʼs body with his Spiritual Sense. ”Precision, control, manipulation, those are the things you definitely donʼt lose to anyone at your level. You donʼt have a talent for being a warrior, but when it comes to these specific points, you truly are the highlight. You took only three days to reach this level of control over your Lightning Element. Anyone else, even if they used the same life and death method, probably wouldnʼt manage to do what you did if they were given an entire month. Of course, there are probably other geniuses out there in the Universe who could do it, maybe even faster, but they are few and far between.”

Kentucky also looked at that. He had seen Zangeshu before the training started, so he understood the difference. ”Would this be about time for the Blood Reformation Pill?”

Rean pondered a bit. ”Yeah, it should be good enough. The process of destruction and rebuilding of his body and meridians played nicely. Here, take it.”

A pill flew in Zangeshuʼs direction, which he caught with his Spiritual Sense. ”What is this Blood Reformation Pill you talked about?”

”Just swallow it,” Rean spoke back. He didnʼt want to talk about the pain that would follow yet.

Zangeshu, however, could already imagine things would be simple. But, at the same time, it is true that he feels completely transformed at the moment. Partly, obviously, was due to Reanʼs training. The other was due to Roanʼs cultivation technique.

*gulp!*

Zangeshu didnʼt ask. Whatever happened after this pill, he could simply add it to the list of reasons to give Rean a beating in the future.

*Ugh!*

Sure enough, the pain immediately attacked, and the reformation started. Rean wouldnʼt stay there to watch, though. He waved his hand and sent Zangeshu back to the Celestial Soul Dimensional Realm. ʼSister Orb, watch him. Iʼm going to enter the Formation Area with Kentucky to look for the Lava Pristine Salamanders.ʼ

[Alright. Should I do anything while he is going through the reformation? It will be bad if he loses consciousness during the process.]

ʼOh, that wonʼt happen,ʼ Rean shrugged. ʼHe knows I would make fun of his face again if that happened, so he will resist it even if he has to die. He probably already hates me as much as Roan does.ʼ

[That is truly a very good reason. Alright, leave it to me. Iʼll tell you if anything changes.]

Rean smiled, jumping on Kentuckyʼs back again. ”Alright, letʼs go get our blood.”
