The Adventures Of The Young Master

Chapter 524 - Meticulous Plan

Jin Rou nodded. It was obvious that darkness would be vicious so it wasn't surprising at all. It needed to suck on others to survive and get stronger. It was a must, so they have no choice.

"But I heard that the Uncrossable Sea isn't dared to be crossed again. So there should be no food for you. How can you survive all these years then?" Jin Rou was curious. If they needed humans and cultivators to fend off, how could they live these past countless years that no one dared to cross again?

"We can live because of the certain fishes that have similarities to the food we usually have." Vestias answered truthfully. It was useless lying in front of a master, "Although it's only at a barely level, we can at least live by the days."

The dark tribe was declining for this past few years because of lack of decent food. The fishes around could only make them survive, it couldn't make them stronger. So as the cultivators crossing the sea were no more, the tribe had been declining. Nevertheless, they might be declining but the power they had was still so powerful than ever.

Jin Rou knew that the other party wasn't lying. Furthermore, there was no reason or benefit for Vestias to lie. After all, Jin Rou could still detect it if ever he falsified his words.

Vestias had been accumulating enough power to activate a skill to escape all this time they were talking. Time was very essential and couldn't let this opportunity go by. He also already sent messages to Zir and Ben of what to do the moment he activated it.

However, after trying to activate it, it wasn't effective as if there was nothing at all.

Vestias couldn't help but feel something wasn't right. He looked behind him and saw an almost invisible chain binding him to the ground. He was stumped to see this as he never felt this binding him!

"I know that you're going to do that." Jin Rou spoke with a carefree tone, "With your intelligence, you will not let yourself wait for your death here. Now that you have discovered the gap between us two, you want to bet everything in one escape. Unfortunately, that's not going to happen."

Jin Rou have long known that the enemies would try to escape. After all, what was the perfect time to orchestrate it? It was when having a conversation. So of course, Jin Rou would be aware of this trick.

"I just realized that there is no point in fighting it out with you." Vestias regained his calm and looked at Jin Rou eyes to eyes, "There is no benefit for me to fight, and there is no benefit for you either. With your power level, there is nothing that we have that can catch your attention."

"I have said this already. But I will repeat it." Jin Rou walked over to Vestias and said, "Being the darkness itself has already warranted you death."

Jin Rou pulled up a dagger and slashed it towards Vestias, "This is the end."

But it was not. Vestias shouted with firm voice, "Now!"

"Whoosh!" Jin Rou felt that the wind suddenly changed direction. Then, two shadows appeared behind him. They were Zir and Ben who were just behind Vestias.

Each of them was carrying a medium sized energy ball filled with darkness dao.

"Insignificant." Jin Rou moved away to counter attack. The dagger he was holding was amplified by many times. He was sure that he could break the energy balls by this.

"Not so fast." Then, Vestias spoke with a confident tone. It seemed like he was waiting for this chance for Jin Rou to turn away. He then released something from his sleeve. It was a dark spear that made out of pure darkness, "Checkmate."

"So this is the real attack." Jin Rou widened his eyes for the first time. It was actually a two-facade plan and he fell for it, "Amazing. You actually thought of a plan like this for a short time. You are indeed a dark lord, worthy of the title itself."

"Boom!" The attack directly hit Jin Rou and created a loud explosion that shook the entire world once again.

"Thump!" Then, Vestias knelt down in one knee and tried to catch his breath. That plan consumed almost all of his strength and now even standing was difficult to do, "This was the first time again since I'm exhausted in battle. It's nostalgic."

As a dark lord, he was always superior and very rare to find difficult opponents to deal with. He was always at the top, that could dare to look down on all human beings. He was qualified to do so. After all, just how many people were there on the same level as him? Perhaps very few that could be counted in one's hand.

The thrill of defeating a very strong opponent was exhilarating.

"It's over now..." Old Ben wasn't actually confident of the plan. After all, he experienced the enemy's powers first hand and was sure Jin rou was very very strong. Fortunately, it might have worked.

"We will return to the base now. Zir, grab ahold of that little sister of yours. I'll be activating—" Vestias couldn't finish his sentence as a loud explosion was made below the ground.

Vestias couldn't help but feel something bad was about to happen and immediately tried to activated his portal. However, he couldn't manipulate the space as if something was stopping him from doing so.

"I admit, that power has indeed hurt me a bit." Jin Rou slowly appeared from the smoke. His sleeves were torn down but it's just that. There were no injuries to see, "Unfortunately, this is the limit you can do. And don't think about escaping. I have locked the space here and unless you defeat me, you're not going anywhere."

Jin Rou was speaking with a calm tone. Yet, it gave cold chills to those who were listening right now. It felt like death was already by their doorstep, ready to cross them out from the list.
