However, Luan simply shrugged those thoughts aside. "Well, whatever. If my real father really is alive, then that means he abandoned me. What would I want to do with someone like that? Roan is my real father. He trained me and took care of me until now. That's all that matters to me. I have no interest in whatever my real father might be doing if he's still around."
Roan nodded after hearing that, satisfied. He brought Luan up to be mentally strong, and those words he uttered just now proved his efforts were not in vain. "Very good. No point dwelling about something you have no power over."
Luina couldn't help but sigh in response. "The Sacred Eye race is so highly regarded, but that's all you take for it. I guess it was really Roan who brought you up." She then decided to take a good look at Luan's current strength. "How old you are exactly?"
"I'm 23 at the moment," Luan answered.
"23 years old and already at the Initial Stage of the Elemental Trnsofmration Realm." It's been four years since Kentucky's time was up, so it was normal that Luan's cultivation had gone up one more stage. He went from the Peak Stage of the Saint Realm to the Initial Stage of the Elemental Transformation Realm." That's good, very good. You're several times faster than these two." Luina looked at the twins after saying that.
Rean simply smiled in response, telling her, "What were you expecting? Not everyone has that Void Shattering Pill of yours, you know? If we also had Divine Energy to use from the very start, we would have been at a much higher level now. We gave Luan our full support, so it goes without saying that he's faster than us. Also, you know very well that our dantians need around three times more Divine Energy than normal cultivators to breakthrough levels."
Luan finally decided to ask something that was bothering him. "Lady Luina. Would you mind telling me if the Sacred Eye race members have different Elemental Affinities?"
Luina found that question weird, telling him, "Of course, they have. Although the environment where one lives can influence a baby's affinity, it's still not a guaranteed result. It's totally possible that a Sacred Eye race member who was born in a frigid location to be born with a Fire Element Affinity. It's just that the chances of him coming out of his mother's womb with a Water Element Affinity are much higher. Why do you ask?"
"It's because I have Space Affinity, so I was wondering whether all Sacred Eye race members had Space Affinity, just like me," Luan explained.
"Space Affinity?!" Luina was shocked to hear that. "Our Sacred Eye race can indeed see the changes in space. However, I've never heard about a Sacred Eye race member having a Space Affinity. Could it be that your situation is linked to your affinity?"
"That I don't know," Luan said in response. "I didn't even know I had Space Affinity until father helped me test it."
Luina couldn't help but ask, "Wait, if space was your affinity, how exactly did you get the catalyst for your Elemental Transformation Realm breakthrough? I don't remember any item with Space Powers in them..."
Luan smiled when he heard, but he decided to not comment. In fact, it was very simple. The barrier of the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm was basically a Space Power barrier. When the time came for his breakthrough, the twins checked with Sister Orb if there was a way to use that barrier to help create the catalyst for Luan. Sister Orb then helped separate a tiny bit of that barrier through the use of the twins' authority and Luan's own Space Power control. It wasn't an easy fit, and they missed it several times as it was too intangible. But ultimately, they got it done, and Luan was able to breakthrough. "Let's just say that father and I had to put a great amount of effort to succeed."
Luina didn't like the answer very much, but she understood that everyone had their secrets. "Fine, I won't pry any further. However, you should go back with me to the Jamai Sect."
Rean, Roan, and Luan were surprised to hear that. "Why?"
"Isn't that obvious?" Luina replied as if it was a matter of fact. "With him being a Sacred Eye race member, our Jamai Sect won't think twice before making an exception and accepting him into the sect without asking anything. The Sect Master of our Jamai Sect went to great lengths to recruit my mother and a few other members of this race. Their eyes are that important for any big power. There, you will have the best training and a guaranteed future."
However, Luan immediately shook his head, telling her, "Sorry, I have no intention of joining any sect. I will keep following my father instead. Just how he helped me, I know my eyes will help him a lot in the future."
Roan then glanced at Luan after that, telling him, "Your eyes are indeed a great asset. However, you're not my slave or anything like that. I'm proud of your achievements so far. So, if you wish to go out and experience the Realm of Gods on your own, I won't stop you. Luina's offer is a very good one. Even I can tell you that."
Luan couldn't care less, though. "I still believe that I will grow the most by staying with you. After all, destiny will bring a lot of experience for me."
Rean and Roan were obviously the only ones who understood Luan's destiny comment. "Well, that's true. The situation right now is most likely because of the attraction of destiny as well."
"What are you even talking about?" Luina asked back.
Luan shook his head, saying, "Just a small joke about fate. Anyways, I'll be following him."
However, Luina shook her head. "Well, you won't be able to do that in the short term. Since I selected Rean and Roan to help me with the Free Continent issue, only they and I will be able to enter it."
Luan just shrugged his shoulders after hearing that. "I can wait." Well, he simply thought that he would stay in the Dimensional Realm.
