Lightning Is the Only Way

The three of them only teleported a million kilometers away, but that was a nearly insurmountable distance for a Nascent Nourishing Cultivator like Yi Lu.

Siral waited for further instructions while Gravis scratched his chin in thought.

"What are you thinking about?" Mortis asked evenly. "You already know that you have four things to do. What's there to think about?"

Gravis smiled bitterly. Sure enough, Mortis was just another Gravis. Mortis immediately knew what things Gravis wanted to do.

It was kind of weird to have a person accompany him that could read his thoughts like that.

"Well, there's a fifth thing," Gravis said awkwardly as he looked at Mortis with a complex expression.

Mortis raised an eyebrow. Then, a slight light shone inside his eyes as he realized what Gravis was hinting at.

"No problem," Mortis said.

Gravis was a bit taken aback. "Ehm, are you sure you know what I wanted to ask you?" Gravis asked just to be sure.

Mortis nodded. "I made a promise in the lower world, and I intend to keep it," Mortis said.

"Just because of a promise?" Gravis asked. He didn't want to force Mortis to do this just because of guilt.

"No," Mortis said. "Joyce is perfectly compatible with me. She chases power and can control her emotions in a dangerous situation from what we have seen from father's images. She is also very powerful."

Yes, this was what Gravis was thinking about.

He couldn't be with Stella without any guilt as long as his promise with Joyce still remained.

So, Gravis looked at Mortis.

Wasn't Mortis exactly the form of Gravis that Joyce fell in love with?

Wasn't Mortis also that form of Gravis that fell in love with Joyce?

For Joyce, it would be like no time had passed.

Mortis was exactly the person that she had chased after for tens of thousands of years.

One also shouldn't forget that Mortis was a human. Mortis' personality might be heavily influenced by Divine Lightning, but he still had Gravis' personality as a basis.

This meant that Mortis could also feel happiness, love, companionship, and so on. The only difference was that these emotions were not very relevant to him.

Mortis chased power, and with that goal, an affinity for rage, pride, and disdain was born. It wasn't that Mortis could only feel those things, but that his personality only mainly focused on them.

This meant that Mortis was also interested in Joyce.
