Chapter 890 - Zasfins' Visit
Chapter 890 - Zasfins' Visit
Obviously, the human who came to deliver the message had high cultivation, being in the Core and Soul Fusion Realm. Otherwise, it would have been impossible for him to pass through the middle of the city without the Zasfins stopping him at some point. One must remember that all humans from the Zasfin territories were sent to Wringan, so it was a rare sight to even see one now.
After a few hours of discussion, it was decided that a few Zasfin representatives would go to Freedom City to finish the details. The Freedom Sect would guarantee the representatives' safety during the visit. The human who came also said something else, telling them that Rean would like to see Frandin and Xiria again. Nevertheless, he didn't need to feel forced to come. It would be more like old friends meeting up, after all.
With that, the guy left several badges of the Freedom Sect with Frandin and Devou, telling them that they would be identified through it. Without the badges, the Freedom Sect wouldn't be certain if others would try to attack them or not. The messenger then left a few minutes later.
"Father, I'm heading there with Xiria," Frandin said without leaving much room for discussion.
Devou nodded, knowing that although it wasn't obligatory, Frandin's presence would definitely make things better for their negotiations. "Very well. By the way, where's your girl?"
After going through many battles in the war together, Frandin and Xiria grew close to each other. By now, they didn't bother pretending and simply got together.
Frandin then pondered over it a bit before saying, "She should be training. You know her. She's quite the cultivation maniac. She didn't care if I became the next city lord or not as long as it didn't intervene with her schedule." Well, her training schedule was still mostly the one made by Roan for Frandin. It just had a few tweaks to be used for women instead. Xiria herself had also made a few modifications over the last few years.
"Alright, go and call her out." Devou was even more impressed with how Frandin managed to get close with such a female Zasfin. After all, her cultivation was higher than Frandin even though they were of the same age. Frandin did get a lot closer to her cultivation over time. Nevertheless, he was always at least one stage behind.
Devou then left to talk with the city lords of the cities around Danve. They were the ones who wanted this trade to move forward, after all. The next day, a party of more than thirty Zasfins was made, and they soon headed to the ocean before starting to cross it. They even had an airship so that they could make this travel faster.
Sure enough, they were stopped by the demon beasts on their way to Freedom Island. After all, the airship did have quite a few Nascent Soul Zasfins. Such a number could still cause a lot of problems in the new human territory since the majority there didn't have high cultivations. Fortunately, as soon as they showed the Freedom Sect badges, the demon beasts stopped bothering them and let the group pass. Of course, they still kept their Spiritual Senses over the ship just in case.
This time, however, they didn't head straight to Freedom Sect as Devou did. Instead, they were told to pass by Freedom City first. That's where the trades would be made with the locals, so there was no point in visiting the sect itself.
In Freedom City, the Zasfin airship stopped above the entrance, not proceeding forward. That's because they could feel the Spiritual Senses of humans at the Soul Transformation Realm there, watching them. Someone appeared there a few moments later to receive the representatives. The guy landed on the Zasfin airship's deck as he looked at them with a serious face, saying, "I can see that you brought the badges. You did well. If some of you haven't kept it, I would have to cut their heads."
The guy's cultivation was obviously at the Soul Transformation Realm as well, so he didn't feel afraid of those Nascent Soul Zasfins at all. In fact, he did want to attack, but Freedom Sect left very clear orders about this event. "Alright, bring the airship to that big tower at the center of the city. That one with the big antenna on the top." The Zasfins nodded in response before flying the airship once again.
Suddenly, they all heard a ringing sound coming from the human cultivator, putting them on their guard. After all, nothing guaranteed that the humans would keep their word of not harming them. However, that Zasfin simply took a strange device from his pocket before putting it on his ear.
"Hello?"
"Ah, yes. They're all here already."
"Hmm? Alright, let me ask."
The Zasfins didn't understand who the human was talking to. After all, there wasn't anyone there. However, the human ignored that and asked something else. "Who among you is Devou Zais?"
Devou immediately stepped forward after hearing that.
"I am."
The guy nodded in response, saying, "Alright, you can send your Spiritual Senses into this device of mine. Just think of it as if you are using Spiritual Sense to talk with a person. The others can also do the same thing to listen, but you shouldn't send messages unless asked since only Devou was called."
Naturally, everyone was curious about the device, so they immediately sent their Spiritual Senses inside. It was then that they heard Rean's voice echoing in their mings like a Spiritual Sense message. 'So you're Devou, huh? Welcome to Freedom City. I'll receive you all in the tower later. I'm just a bit busty right now.'
Everyone was taken aback, hearing the message. It was then that Devou remembered the human saying he could use that device as if he was talking to a person through Spiritual Sense. 'Can you hear me?'
Rean immediately replied after that, 'Of course, I can. Don't worry, this is a communication device crated by our sect. It's called a Spiritual Smartphone, and we can talk as much as we want. You don't need to be afraid of it burning out like a Thoughts Transmission Talisman.'
Sure enough, those words made all the Zasfins on the airship widen their eyes!
