Lightning Is the Only Way

Gravis arrived at the Purist Sect without being noticed. With Gravis' current power and grasp over the Emotional Laws, no one in this world could find him when he wanted to stay hidden.

When Gravis saw Stella again, they embraced each other.

Stella tried to hold back her tears, but they just wouldn't stop when she saw Gravis.

Stella was so happy that Gravis hadn't died!

When Gravis felt Stella's emotions, he was assaulted by guilt.

He had hurt Stella.

Yet, there was no other way.

The only ways to avoid this happening in the future were either to stop advancing or keep his tempering a secret.

Gravis couldn't choose either option.

Gravis and Stella spent the next couple of years together without any outsider interfering.

However, 1,000 years later, Gravis got an idea.

"Hey, do you want to visit the Nine Elements Sect?" Gravis asked.

Stella was a bit taken aback by the idea.

"But aren't we still being hunted?" she asked.

"So?" Gravis asked.

Stella wasn't sure how to respond to that.

When Gravis saw Stella hesitate, he burst out into laughter. "Oh, you're so cute and innocent sometimes," Gravis said with a chortle.

Stella pouted when she heard Gravis' words. "Hey, I'm not innocent!"

Gravis' laughter only increased when he heard her protests.

"Honey, you have been born into this higher world," Gravis explained with a warm smile. "That means that you have never reached the peak of a world. Honey, when you reach the peak of power, you can do whatever you want."

"If I want, we can both stroll around the Nine Elements Sect without being detected, and even if I appeared openly, what can they do?"

"Tell me, what can they do if I want to walk around their Sect?" Gravis asked with a smile.
