The Adventures Of The Young Master

Chapter 381 - Ancestral Grounds

Ancestral Grounds was one of the sacred place of the Rou Celestial Realm. As everything that could be seen here was from the legendary ancestors that the realm have ever had. Of course, since it was a sacred place, then little to limited only could enter this place. Unless there was an enough reason, the guardians guarding the grounds wouldn't let anyone in.

"It's been a while, Your Majesty." The guardian tiger beast said as it bowed its head, "I didn't expect your coming here in the Ancestral Grounds."

Though the tiger had already known that Jin Rou returned home, it didn't anticipate that he would come here in the Ancestral Grounds. After all, there was nothing that could be of any use for him here.

"Yes, it's been a while, Uncle Tigero." Jin Rou smiled and gave back the formality, "I see that you are still the one managing the grounds. I thought you're going to retire as you have told me."

"Ah, Your Majesty. If it were just me, I really wanted to retire and rest now," Uncle Tigero sighed and smiled weakly, "But my descendants are all incompetent. Who can I entrust this grounds? Them? No, but thanks. If they would manage this place, then I'm very sure that it would fall the next day."

Jin Rou laughed when he heard this. Indeed, though he didn't mean any harm to that, it was a fact that Uncle Tigero's offsprings weren't capable yet. After all, they were still youths that were trying to find their paths so it was natural.

Uncle Tigero glanced at the lady who was beside Jin Rou and instantly recognized her, "Lady Syni Su, welcome to our Ancestral Grounds."

"Thank you." Syni Su didn't mind the late greetings of the tiger and smiled.

Uncle Tigero smiled. He very knew these two were always together since they were a child as they made this grounds their playground. And he was the one responsible for looking after them. Though he never said anything regarding the two, he knew that Jin Rou and Syni Su were a match made by the universal heavens.

He was just wondering and curious of what stage were they in now? Or perhaps, were they going to get married immediately? Of course, Uncle Tigero didn't outright say this and all remained inside his mind.

"Uncle, we are going to enter now. Grandma has told me to get me something from here." Jin Rou said.

"Alright, Your Majesty. Please be safe." Uncle Tigero opened the gate and the two entered swiftly.

"The grounds didn't change after all these years." Syni Su broke the silence and spoke.

"Yes, aside from adding, everything remains the same here since then." Jin Rou agreed.

The grounds was the home of contributions made by the heroes of this world. So, you can see almost everything here. It varied from treasures, techniques, and deep formations that the sages had learned and created.

And since it was a sacred place, any bad deeds of all categories weren't entertained here. If one was caught, they could be sentenced with a lifetime hell suffering or death.

"Since we are already here, why don't we tour ourselves?" Syni Su suggested. It was her first time coming here again after all these years and she wanted to reminisce a bit.

"I don't mind. But let's get the Blue-saint Flowers first." Jin Rou said. Of course, he would make the task given by his grandma his priority.

The Blue-saint Flowers were a type of flower that only bloom here in the Ancestral Grounds. And the very effect of it was it could calm one's mind. It was also a core ingredient when making concocting a pill.

Jin Rou believed that his grandma wanted this because of alchemy. After all, he knew just how Yanlu Rou love alchemy. She might want to concoct pills that could help them fight the enemies soon.

Syni Su nodded her head in agreement. In fact, she already knew that Jin Rou was going to say this thus it was easy for her to take.

Since the place was very vast, Jin Rou and Syni Su needed to walk by feet for a few mountains as flight was restricted in this place. Though it wasn't tiring, Syni Su was growing bored of it.

She came here with Jin Rou because she planned to open a topic about their marriage but it looked like the other party wasn't yet aware of this. Thus she was in a pinch of whether she would say it herself or let Yanlu Rou do the job.

"Finally, the flowers." Jin Rou sighed in relief as he could see the blue-colored flowers in a distance. His memory had served him right and it was the only spot that Blue-saint Flowers could bloom.

Syni Su stepped out of her imagination running wild and looked where Jin Rou was looking.

And there, a full bed of flowers could be seen. They were shining blue and gave an attracting and soft vibe that you would choose to lie down beside them and rest. It was like the flowers were the symbol of peace everyone sought for.

"So beautiful..." Syni Su had seen so many beautiful flowers in her whole life. Not to mention, she owned a garden filled with different kinds of flowers. However, it was the first time she had seen a flower this pretty.

"You will never see a flower more beautiful than this." Jin Rou spoke with pride.

Syni Su glared at him but she didn't comment. It looked like she was agreeing to.

Jin Rou chuckled when he saw this and walked over to the bed of flowers. He wouldn't pluck everything here as he needed only a few.

Syni Su just stood there watching him do his thing while looking at Jin Rou's back.

She couldn't help but gulp as she looked at the fine body of the concerned man. Jin Rou was very attractive and handsome, that even the cold princess of the other universe had fallen for him.

"Rumble!" And suddenly, the whole ground shook without notice which made Syni Su snap back into her reality.
