The Adventures Of The Young Master

Chapter 204 - Scheme Out In The Open

"To think that the treasure is with that brat. This sure is unexpected." The leader of the Nine Immortals sneered, grinning like a mad man, "Her Highness' intellect surely surpasses all of us."

"Didn't I already tell you, Uncle Xiao?" The princess smiled, "I will never think of a plan that would have many flaws. Once I plan, I will make sure that it will succeed no matter what the consequences."

That's right. All of this was for the World-Creating Compass. As they were the guardians of the forbidden island, they also knew that the compass was created by the island itself. A few days ago, an abnormal phenomenon appeared in the deepest part of the island. So the race decided to check what's going on. And according to their First-Generation Immortal Emperor, it reacted to the compass itself! It meant that it was already in the Sea Continent. So what's the meaning of this? It meant that there was someone possessing the compass currently.

Thus, they did not waste any time and announced that they will be announcing something big. And in order to lure the one possessing the compass, they spent all costs to open the island for everyone! After all, who would not want to explore an island that only Immortal Emperors were the qualified ones to enter? As this plan had still a flaw, they decided to put some grand treasures, including 7 Immortal Armaments, and 2 Quasi-Immortal Emperor Armaments and 1 Immortal Emperor Armament! All for the sake of the compass. With this, one must already know how serious this race was to get the compass back. After all, it should be theirs in the first place, not to some outsider!

"You planned this meticulously just to get the compass?" Jin Rou smiled, "And to think that a proud and mighty race like you will also put their treasures here intentionally to attract every one of the Sea Continent."

Everyone was confused about what's going on. What are they talking about?

When the princess saw the confused looks of everyone gathered, she immediately filled them in, "Actually everyone, everything we did is for a certain treasure within this young man here. And in fact, that's what we want. If we successfully get the treasure, then this pile of treasures will belong to you all. How about it?"

Hearing this, they did not think twice as they revealed their greediness in their faces and said, "Well, if that's what the princess wants, then we will be happy to comply."

"You planned this for nothing." Jin Rou said, "You won't get the World-Creating Compass from me. I will not let anyone possess this anymore."

World-Creating Compass! Everyone suddenly changed their faces. What was this treasure? It was the most powerful treasure that ever appeared in Grivexia! As it was born from heaven and earth, its power was terrifying that you could create your own world, expand your lifespan by a hundred thousand years or skip a whole realm of cultivation! Everyone knew that the compass had disappeared a very long time ago. But now, the compass was within this young man's hands?

What sort of lucky encounter did this young lad have? It's almost heaven-defying!

Of course, they would not dare to get ahead of the race and grab it for themselves. The treasures that the ancient race had laid was more than enough for them and wouldn't think of stealing the compass under the nose of the princess unless they wanted to die already.

Lang Zing was also stumped, his mouth agape. So this what he meant a while ago! Even they stroke a conversation with Jin Rou in a friendly manner, it would be useless as the other party was planning to bite him in the end. But how did Jin Rou knew this?

"I say, Young Master Jin." The princess smiled, "Since everything is out in the open, we will no longer put a facade. We want the World-Creating Compass. Speak your terms."

"So you think you guys can order me around?" Jin Rou smiled coldly.

"I advise you to comply with us when I am still playing nice here. Don't get full of yourself just because you are an Immortal Emperor." The princess revealed a darkened expression.

"Are you threatening me?" Jin Rou asked.

"Threat? We are still nice to you." The princess laughed, "So you better hand over the compass, and you can leave this place without any hindrances. If you want any treasure, even it's an Immortal Emperor Armament, we will give it to you."

"Young Master Jin, it's better if you give it for the sake of your life." The Revenant Sect Master said, "It's not a wise choice to oppose them."

"How laughable." Jin Rou laughed coldly and said, "It's not a wise choice to oppose them? Just a mere ancient race with many Immortal Emperors alive? I'm sorry but it's not enough to be put them in my eyes."

"Audacious!" The Nine Immortals said, "You're just a brat yet you are so brazen to belittle us right in our faces. Do you think you're the strongest here?"

"Yes, I am." Jin Rou answered, "I came here because I want to return the compass to heaven and earth itself so that they won't be in the possession of anyone who's malicious enough like your race."

"You want this the hard way, huh?" The princess sneered, "Then be it. Let's see what you are capable of!"

Soon, the Nine Immortals moved and surrounded Jin Rou. They released their Immortal Armaments and expand their qi, releasing a whirlpool of dense qi! Just imagine, 9 people doing this? The scene was so imposing that even the Immortal Emperors present shuddered.

"Brat, die!" The leader of the Nine Immortals said and soon, the whirlpools of qi were thrown towards Jin Rou, creating fluctuations all around!

"Courting death." Jin Rou laughed coldly. He waved his hand casually and the imposing whirlpools suddenly disappeared out of thin air!

Seeing this, everyone was flabbergasted. That imposing show of power, disappeared with just a wave of a hand?
