Dole Universe. This one had recently gone through an all-out war against its neighbor, the Maqem Universe. Although it was a pyrrhic victory, the ones who ended up having their Universe destroyed were the Maqem people and demon beasts.

Of course, the Dole Universe was also deeply affected, still being in a state of recovery. Fortunately, the other 'nearby' Universes didn't have an interest in Dole after how it turned out after the war. Besides, the Dole experts were at their wit's end, so the others didn't want to make them use desperate measures.

Of course, such a thing wasn't that rare in the grand scheme of things. Dole was just one more of these nigh uncountable number of Universes out there in the Mortal Realm. Naturally, there were others who passed through the same issue.

All of a sudden, a hole in the Universe Barrier opened as two figures stepped out from it. Obviously, they were Krune and Feifei. They had been looking for Ownerless Heavenly Fragments, trading them for Godly Energy Stones. However, it turned out that it wasn't easy to get others to trade with them.

There were even some who didn't have anything to do with the Universe Powerhouses, Dalin Universe, or anything like that. That being said, they had no idea who Krune was, let alone Wally. In the end, they were attacked by those powers which were trying to obtain their Godly Stones from them.

It was their bad luck, though. Krune and Feifei might not be able to fight all the experts of a Universe alone. However, that was never the case. Those powers only looked at Feifei and Krune's cultivation, not knowing what their real strength was. When the attacks happened, it would usually have one or two Peak Divinity Realm cultivators or demon beasts at most. Other times they were attacked by enemies who were not even at the peak of the Divinity Realm, just having slightly higher cultivations.

As one could imagine, Krune and Feifei simply steamrolled over them. Of course, they didn't stay behind to ask for anything else after that. Although they won easily, that was because the enemy underestimated their strength. The next time a group appeared, it would have many times the number of Divinity Realm cultivators and Demon Beasts. Naturally, Krune and Feifei left those Universes straight away before anyone could react. Well, with Krune's Purple Tribulation Lightning Layer, no one would be able to find them with their Divine Senses anyway.

From the Universes they had been so far, only five of them accepted trading their Heavenly Fragments for Godly Energy Stones. None wanted his Purple Flame Equipment, so he gave up offering them. Fortunately, one of the five Heavenly Fragments they got was the Elemental one. Feifei only needed the Time Heavenly Fragment now that she absorbed that one. As for the rest, they were repelled Heavenly Fragments that Feifei got already. Krune decided to give them to Lia when they came back to the Luvile Universe.

"This Dole Universe is quite far."

"There's no helping it. None of the Universes around has a Multi-Universal Teleport Formation. Unlike when our ancestors opened a Spatial Gate for us to enter Dalin, we didn't have the precise location of this one. We could only pass through each Universe one by one to get here."

"Well, at least we know that there is more than one Ownerless Heavenly Fragment in this place."

Krune and Feifei then spread their Divine Senses as they looked at the situation of the Universe. Well, at least the parts where their Divine Senses could reach.

"Seems like it's true. Most of the planets with cultivators seem to be quite damaged, with just a few exceptions."

"So that's how it looks like after two Universes of similar powers go all-out in a war. I wonder if Dalin will turn out like this."

"I don't think so. The main purpose of the internal war in Dalin is to take it back. If they destroy it, what's the point? If any side, be it the Retaking or Home Alliance, tried to aim for destruction, all the neutral powers will join against it."

"That's good, then."

Suddenly, a few Spatial Gates appeared close to where Krune and Feifei were staying. However, the couple didn't seem surprised by that. First of all, Krune wasn't even using his Purple Tribulation Lightning to hide them. When they spread their Divine Senses, they were already expecting that someone with similar cultivation or higher would come.

Following that, a few Divinity Realm cultivators and demon beasts came out. However, not a single one of them was at the Peak of the Divinity Realm. Not only that, but the couple could see that a few of them seemed to be injured as well. It was evident that the scars of war still remained.

The demon beast, who seemed to be the leader of this group, then asked Feifei and Krune.

"Who are you? Why did you open a hole in our Dole Universe's barrier?"

Sure enough, this was another one of those Universes that didn't know who Krune was.

Krune and Feifei quickly bowed to the man before saying.

"My name is Krune, and this is my wife, Feifei. We came to the Dole Universe because we heard you just finished a war against Maqem Universe. We want to make a deal with the power controlling Dole Universe."

Feifei added.

"We have no intention of attacking or forcing anything. If your leaders don't want to make a deal with us, we will simply leave."

The demon beast narrowed his eyes.

"What is this deal about?"

Feifei shook her head.

"This is a secret that we can only disclose to the Dole Universe's controlling power. Oh, right! I forgot to ask. Is there just a single power controlling Dole, or is it more than one?"

"You don't know?"

Feifei and Krune shook their heads.

"We really had never been here before. We came exclusively for this deal of ours. We probably won't ever step on this Universe again after we leave."

The demon beast looked at the others as they nodded. They also didn't want to start a battle against anyone in their current situation. After pondering for a bit, the demon beast finally nodded.

"Very well. I'm Kuge, the one in charge of this region of the Dole Universe. Dole has more than a single controlling power, five of them to be more exact. If you want to talk with them, I can send a message."

Krune and Feifei couldn't help but sigh. Usually, things were a lot harder when a Universe was controlled by more than a single power. Still, they had to give it a try.

"Thank you."

Kuge quickly arranged for someone to go leave as he opened a new Spatial Gate.

"Come with me. I'll have you wait somewhere else. As you can probably see, we're in a constant state of alert, so I can't be far from my headquarters for long."

Feifei and Krune nodded, not minding it too much.

Somewhere else in the Dole Universe, the two finally came out of Kuge's Spatial Gate. Under them, they could see a medium-sized planet with a thin atmosphere. Krune and Feifei could tell that the sun that illuminated it had been quite damaged recently as well.

"As this region of the Universe's headquarters, we suffered quite a few attacks here. Obviously, the sun was affected as well. Just ignore it since we'll be moving out in a few years. Anyway, come down to the planet with me."

Feifei looked down at the planet and could tell that a powerful formation protected it. However, she just smiled as she went down with Krune. That kind of formation might have been good against others, but Krune and Feifei were different. Feifei's Divination abilities and Krune's Purple Tribulation Lightning made it easy to find the right place to blast a hole through it if they wanted to leave.

Kuge looked as Feifei and Krune passed through an opening in the planet's protection formation before it closed. Surprisingly, they didn't complain or ask anything about it.

'Well, seems like they really came without any malicious intentions. Otherwise, no one would enter our planet's protection formation and get trapped inside.'

Kuge quickly brought Krune and Feifei to a building somewhat close to their headquarters.

"Alright, please wait here for a moment. I'll stay here with you until we get an answer from the five powers."

Krune and Feifei nodded.

"How long will it take?"

"I believe it should be a few hours until we manage to get them together."

Krune then used that chance to ask.

"Oh! In that case, do you have a kitchen here?"

"Ki-kitchen?"

Krune nodded.

"I want to make some food while we're waiting."

Kuge was taken aback.

'Is this some trick? Since when did Divinity Realm cultivators and demon beasts need to eat?'

"Errr... Sure, we do have one... I guess?"

Although he didn't need to eat, the headquarters had many low-level cultivation subordinates who did. Kuge then asked one of them to guide Krune to the kitchen, where Krune really began to cook something.

Krune's Spiritual Chef ability only got better as time passed. Not to mention that he made sure to bring enough ingredients from the Godly Path Realm for him and the others to eat for years.

Soon, his food began to leave a fragrant smell. The kitchen was quite far from the living room. However, it was so strong that even Feifei, Kuge, and two more Divinity Realm subordinates who were present with him could feel it.

Feifei just smiled as she felt that. As for Kuge and the other two, they heard their stomachs making a sound that they hadn't heard for many, many years.

*Ghrooow...*

"This..."

Feifei laughed at that sight.

"Hahaha! Don't worry. This is a normal reaction for those who have smelled my husband's food. Just wait a bit longer. I'm sure he will prepare enough for everyone."
