"We will leave this continent."
"Huh?"
Ren Xia looked at Tian Yang with wide eyes, as those were his first words after returning.
"What about Kulas?"
Tian Yang shook his head and sighed.
Then, he explained the entire situation to her.
"I get the gist of the situation, but... Are you really going to leave him behind?" Ren Xia looked at him with a worried frown.
Although she was slightly worried for Kulas, she was far more concerned for Tian Yang in this sort of situation, as it could easily develop into a heart demon in the future.
Tian Yang wore a resolute expression on his face as he replied, "I am not leaving him behind. But itās also true that we cannot help himāat least not in our current state. Once we leave, I will focus on trying to breakthrough to the next realm and figure out what these Eternals want from us!"
"If Kulas even lasts long enough for us to help him..." Ren Xia remarked.
Tian Yang clenched his fists and said, "Kulas is strong... I believe that he wonāt do something as foolish as ending himself!"
"Anyway, weāre leaving at dawn, and weāll be taking whoever wants to leave with us."
"All of them?" Ren Xia raised an eyebrow.
"Of course not. I will only take those who havenāt been affected by the illness, and those who are willing to leave with us."
"But only some of his wives and daughters arenāt affected..." Ren Xia narrowed her gaze at him.
Tian Yang sighed, "Relax, I have no intention of touching Kulasā family, even if he is no longer here."
"I didnāt say anything, though," she said.
"But I know what youāre thinking."
"Do you, really?" Ren Xia sneered. "I was actually thinking that if you truly had some feelings for them, I wouldnāt mind accepting a few more sisters."
Tian Yang looked at her wide eyes, his gaze full of disbelief.
He shook his head and sighed, "This isnāt the time for jokes. Letās get ready to leave."
"I wasnāt joking, though..." she muttered.
A few hours later, Tian Yang and Ren Xia went to the front gate and waited for dawn, which was only an hour away.
Half an hour later, a large group of people, around two hundred, walked out of the palace with a heavy atmosphere around them.
This entire group consisted of women, with more than half of them being Kulasā wives. Since the children were directly connected to Kulas by blood, they were more likely to be affected by the Kulasā bloodline.
Naturally, Tian Yang had noticed long ago that the women were less likely to be affected by the illness, but there was nothing he could really do, even with that information.
When the group stopped before them, one of them stepped forward and said, "This is everyone who hasnāt been affected by the illness yet. We all had a long talk, and although we all showed up, not all of us will leave. Some of us have decided to stay behind and remain with our husbands."
Soon, about a third of the group separated from the rest and approached Tian Yang.
"We have all decided to leave with you..."
Tian Yang looked at the group. There were several that he recognized and some that he didnāt. Those he recognized consisted of Chao Shuying, Xie Mey, and the women who asked him to embrace them in Kulasā stead in the past.
