Inside the spaceship.
Karo and Béla stood in front of Qinchuan somewhat cautiously, as if they didn't know what to say to Qinchuan, but also wanted to say something.
Qinchuan looked at Karo and Béla's bashful expressions and chuckled, "If you have anything to say, just say it. There's no need to hesitate."
Hearing Qinchuan's words, Karo looked at Qinchuan with a complicated gaze and asked, "Sir, is there anything else you need us sisters to do?"
Qinchuan smiled and replied, "Not at the moment."
Hearing Qinchuan's answer, Karo's face showed obvious disappointment, while Béla lowered her head even more. Qinchuan was a little surprised when he saw this and asked, "Shouldn't you feel lucky?
You are already free. "
"Sir, we are indeed free, but we are now homeless." Karo smiled bitterly and said to Qinchuan, "We don't know where to go."
Before this, Karo's mind was filled with thoughts of how to rescue Béla, but when they really rescued Béla, when they needed to think about the future, they found that they seemed to have nowhere to go.
They couldn't go back to Meizu, and Rocky Star was no longer safe …
After thinking about it, they found that the only place that could make them feel at ease now was by Qinchuan's side, so they hoped that Qinchuan could take them in, but obviously, Qinchuan didn't seem to have this intention.
Qinchuan looked at Béla curiously and said, "According to your description, Béla should be a very strong person, but why is the Béla I see a somewhat inferior and even cowardly person?"
Hearing Qinchuan's words, Karo sighed helplessly and said to Qinchuan, "Sorry, Béla wasn't like this before."
Qinchuan looked at Karo and said, "I understand what you mean, you want me to take you in. This isn't impossible, but I want to see a proud and strong Béla, not this weak and boneless Béla."
Karo looked at Béla with some hesitation. She also wanted to see the Béla of the past, but in the past year, Béla had experienced too much pain, and the pride in her heart had long been wiped clean.
Seeing Karo and Béla's silence, Qinchuan said to the two, "Karo, you can help Béla adjust her condition first. When the time is right, come and see me."
"Thank you, Sir."
Karo looked at Qinchuan gratefully and then left with Béla.
After Karo and Béla left, Lü Zi looked at Qinchuan and asked, "Have you already thought of keeping them?"
Qinchuan shook his head and replied, "Although it's cruel to tell the truth, keeping them by our side is reasonable, other than being eye candy, there's no use in keeping them by our side."
A peak Insightful Void cultivator and a peak Insightful Void cultivator were already a force to be reckoned with in an ordinary power, but in front of Qinchuan, to be honest, they weren't worth his attention.
Although Qinchuan and Lü Zi were peak Insightful Void cultivators and peak Insightful Void cultivators respectively, their battle prowess couldn't be measured by the standards of ordinary cultivators. Night Serenity and Argentin were overlords of the Body Integration stage, and Mysterious Snake was a peak Body Integration stage overlord. Each was stronger than the other, so Qinchuan really didn't have much interest in Karo and Béla.
But since Karo and Béla wanted to stay, Qinchuan wouldn't refuse. However, Karo and Béla had to prove their worth. Qinchuan didn't have much hope for Karo, but he was still somewhat interested in Béla.
From Karo's description of Béla in the past, Béla should be a very strong, opinionated, and capable person. But when Qinchuan really met Béla, he discovered that although Béla hadn't lost her virginity to Auk, her willpower had almost been destroyed by Auk. Such a Béla was almost equivalent to a cripple and had no value to Qinchuan.
These words were cold blooded, but this was the bloody reality of the universe. Qinchuan had never been a philanthropist. Apart from his own people, he had always sought benefits from others.
If Béla could regain her confidence and find her past self, Qinchuan didn't mind giving Béla a chance to be loyal to him. But if Béla couldn't do it, then they would part ways when they left the Holy Cluster.
…
The spaceship stopped not long after leaving Iron Tower Planet. This was because Qinchuan unexpectedly discovered that he had entered a wonderful state. There were faint signs of him breaking through to the peak of the Dongxu Realm.
On the third day of his stay in the universe, Qin Chuan finally woke up from that mysterious feeling. Following that, he welcomed his own small calamity.
When they saw the nine lightning bolts falling, Karo and Béla were extremely shocked. They had never seen nine lightning bolts during a Minor Tribulation!
"Béla, is this also considered the Mysterious Heaven Nine-Stage Tribulation?"
Karo wasn't too sure. Did the Mysterious Heaven Nine-Stage Tribulation also exist in the Minor Tribulation?
Shouldn't a normal person only go through three or six lightning bolts?
Béla shook her head and said to Karo, "I'm not sure either. But among the people I know, no one has ever gone through a Minor Tribulation with nine lightning bolts."
Karo turned to Béla and said with a complicated tone, "Béla, we can tell Master that you went through the Mysterious Heaven Nine-Stage Tribulation when you were at the Nascent Soul Stage. You're a genius and shouldn't be buried."
Hearing Karo's words, Béla couldn't help but fall silent. Of course, she knew that she was a genius. However, it was because of this reputation that she and her sister got into trouble. If it wasn't for this, they wouldn't have left Meizu and become mercenaries wandering in space.
Seeing Béla fall silent, Karo couldn't help but sigh. She knew that Béla must have suffered a lot in the past year. That was why she became like this. She really didn't want to see Béla sink into depravity. She hoped that she could save Béla from the shadow that Auk had created.
Just as Karo and Béla were whispering to each other, Qinchuan returned to the spaceship. What welcomed him was Lü Zi's congratulations.
"Congratulations, you're now at the same level as me. You've finally caught up to me."
Hearing Lü Zi's words, Qinchuan smiled and said, "I originally thought that breaking through from the peak of the Dongxu Realm to the peak of the Dongxu Realm would be difficult. But now, it seems that it wasn't the case. It was a little too easy."
