Chapter 1072 – Talan Clan’s Plans

"Matriarch-" Fatax was about to intervene when Langara raised her hand.

"It's fine," she told him. "You're correct about my soul being consumed by my descendants. I was a pretty strong cultivator before I was forced to send my soul into someone else's body. That being said, my soul was also very strong. However, as time passed, the souls of the bodies I took over began to consume my own soul."

Rean pondered over it for a bit before asking, "Are you doing it on purpose or is it a side effect?"

"Do I look like someone who would allow that to happen?" Langara asked in response.

Rean shrugged his shoulders after that. "Fair enough." Obviously, no one would want that to happen to them, especially Langara, who was a strong cultivator in the past.

Langara continued, "As you can imagine, I'm going to see the fairies because they can help with my condition."

"I didn't know fairies were good at matters of the soul," Rean could not help but say.

Langara then explained, "Well, most people know very little if anything at all about fairies. However, they're indeed a race with strong connections to matters related to the soul. Well, that also happens to help out their ability in messing around with people's karma threads. Or, as some would call, controlling luck."

Roan couldn't help but ask after that, "But how would they be able to help you?"

Langara shook her head in response. "That I'm not sure. It's not like I know a lot about them either. However, during the time I was still in my own body, I heard a rumor from another cultivator. He told me fairies could move someone's soul to an empty body without any side effects."

"Empty body?" Rean and Roan's attention was piqued by those words. "You mean, a dead body without a soul?"

Langara shook her head as she had no clue either. "I don't know. That's as far as I heard. At that time, I wasn't interested in it. That was simply some random conversation that happened to enter my ears. Maybe I'm completely wrong, and they can't do anything about it."

Fatax had a sad expression, obviously showing he knew about it as well. He knew that the chances were very low.

Langara then looked at Rean. "By the way, this barrier separating Eminia from my soul is really good. Would you perhaps consider working for me if things don't work out? Or, at least, showing me how you did that?"

Rean shook his head, declining as he told her, "You won't be able to use the same ability. For that, you need Light Element Affinity." Rean was telling a half-truth there. Not only would one need Light Element Affinity, but one would also need Divine Soul Power, which was given by the Soul Gem System.

It was then that Rean realized. "Ah! How could I have forgotten? Fairies also have Light Element Affinity! Of course, they should be good at the matters of the soul."

Langara nodded. "Also, how about working for me? I'm sure I can give you as many resources as the Royal Family does. It's not that I'm as wealthy as them, but I would need to only care about you."

Rean immediately shook his head. "No can do. My brother and I won't stay around forever. We want to see the entire Realm of Gods. At the very least, I'll keep helping you until we get to the fairies, although we are only a day away from their territory."

Rean also added, "Besides, this is nothing but a stopgap solution. It won't resolve the root cause of your problem, so you shouldn't rely on it."

Langara let out a sigh after that. "I understand." In fact, she understood it. However, having Rean always close to her would give her time to find another solution to the issue in case the fairies didn't work.

Langara then continued, "As for Roan's second question. It is as you said. The Clan Head of my Talan Clan knows that I'm quickly losing my power. He wants to squeeze out every ounce of my worth before I'm gone. Do you remember when Volrei told me that the guy wanted to rival the Royal Family?"

Rean and Roan nodded and waited for Langara to finish. "His idea is to force me into the descendants of his side of the clan, even those without a pure enough bloodline. As you could imagine, it would deteriorate my state even further. If I go into someone with a weak bloodline, that body's soul will consume my soul even faster."

Roan understood. "I see where you're coming from. It's not because someone has a purer bloodline that they have better talent. At the very least, not in your clan's case, as your blood and the Graskin Race's blood have mixed."

Rean also got to the crux of the issue, saying, "With that said, he might as well squeeze you dry into some of the best talents on his side. Once you're done, the clan would have a few talents that might even surpass the best ones from the Royal Family. In the future, as long as they're careful, they really might have the strength to rival the Royal Family when those talents grow."

Langara bitterly smiled in response. "Quite pitiful, am I not? I'm the one who started that clan. If not for me, it wouldn't even exist. But now, they want to kill me so that they can have more power."

Fatax then added, "As you noticed, our clan has been very low profile because of the Matriarch. However, this low-profile demeanor is what the Clan Head and the ones on his side don't want anymore. They believe that because of the Matriarch's bloodline, they should rise into prominence."

Rean pondered in silence for a bit before deciding to ask. "You still haven't told us from which race she is."

"This…" Fatax was taken aback as he looked at Langara.

Rean also added, "However, I do know about a few races with her power. The Ascesfe Race and the Ogram Race. Are you part of any of those?"

"Ridiculous!" Langara answered in rage. "Don't compare me with those wicked things. Wait! How do you even know about those races?"

Rean just smiled in response.. Of course, it was all thanks to Sister Orb's knowledge.
