Chapter 2485 DumeiThe explosion put Alex in a daze. He could see the two women fly away, leaving behind Windborn, who made his way toward him. He tried to fight again, but his body was limp, ignoring his commands.
Alex's plan had been simple, albeit based on wishful thinking more than anything. Because he was unable to act while frozen by Fairy Xin, he first needed to undo her grasp on him. Burning away her suppression with his Yang had been, in his opinion, the perfect way to do it.
When it worked, Alex would then use the Spirit Reversal technique to make himself immune to all of her powers. At that point, he would hopefully somehow be able to teleport away or even just do something to notify others of his presence here.
However, what he hadn't expected was the amount of Qi that would escape out of his body in order to fight the coldness surrounding him. He was still in control at that point, but when Shumi got close, he could feel his body's attraction toward her. It was unstoppable.
Once their two auras met each other, there was nothing else for Alex to do. Whatever had happened had been out of his control.
Alex still failed to understand the actual cause of the explosion. Why had the mix of their auras acted like this? If their auras hated each other, then why were they attracted to each other?
Alex also found it curious how his thoughts were so clear, and yet everything happening outside was a daze. He could barely figure out what Windborn was doing out there.
He could feel something press against his numb palms before Windborn grabbed his head once again. He placed his own forehead against Alex's forehead.
The little bit of clarity he did have of the outside world vanished, and he found himself standing atop a sea of murky water underneath an overcast sky.
It was his Spiritual Sea.
"What is this?" someone spoke, a feminine voice.
Alex quickly turned around and found a woman standing next to his Blood Origin. The thing was now half as big as him and had taken the shape of a much younger him, floating in a fetal position with his eyes closed.
Alex looked at the woman who was in his Spiritual Sea with him. She had a head full of black hair, tied up neatly behind her. Her face was fair and beautiful.
However, there was a blue tinge to her entire body, including her skin, which made Alex feel uncomfortable for a moment.
"You must be Windborn," Alex said slowly. "Or whoever was inside of him."
The woman turned around, smiling softly. With her facing him, Alex could see the two bumps on her forehead disappear into her floating hair.
"You're a demon!"
He should have expected as much, considering who she was in league with, but he was still surprised.
"Call me Sister Dumei," the woman said. "We will be accompanying each other for a while."
Alex was still not over the shock of the entire thing. From meeting Shumi to the explosion, to now this. The day had been too sudden and wildly unexpected. However, he knew now was not the time to let his emotions stop him from acting.
Color blossomed in the world below him, a yellow fog slowly streaming out from underneath the water.
"I have but one question to ask of you. Were you Killersky?" he asked.
The woman smiled. "Yes and no," she said. "Killersky was the same as Windborn, the same as who you are going to be."
Alex frowned. "You take over people's bodies after killing them?" he asked. He slowly understood why, unlike his guardian, he hadn't been killed immediately. They wanted his body.
"I don't immediately kill them, just like I won't kill you. I need to learn from them to become them. But you are right about everything else. I do take over people's bodies."
