The Adventures Of The Young Master

Chapter 535 - Thousand Life Blessing Amulet

"A certain thing?" Jin Rou's curiosity was piqued. What kind of thing would it be for this young emperor to search for it infinitely? The whole continent was so vast that it could be the same size as one of the major worlds of the separated universes.

"Yes, it is called Thousand Life Blessing Amulet." Lucas said, "It is a treasure that can keep one's life no matter how old the person was. Furthermore, it was more effective to those mortals who have not cultivated."

"You want to keep your parents from dying?" Jin Rou asked. It was the closes possible reason why Lucas was doing this.

"Yes, I don't want my mother to die yet. She is everything to me and I don't think I can go further without her." Lucas became emotional while talking about his mother. Memories flashed as he remembered how painstakingly hard life was for his mother.

But everything was different now. He was an ancient emperor that could command the rain and winds with little effort. He vowed to the heavens that he would repay his mother before she pass away.

"Death is part of the cycle." Jin Rou murmured under his breath, "I now see why you went to the Oblivion Forest. You want the Life Flower, too."

Lucas smiled wryly. Obviously, it was true. He expend so much resources to reach that place and try his luck with the flower. After all, he still have some connections with the Church. His chance was so slim by that time, and it became nigh when an unexpected variable appeared.

It was Jin Rou who broke his plan thoroughly.

"Anyway, I don't expect much to get it. It was a treasure nurtured by the Divine Court for so many years now. I might die first before my mother and I don't want that." Lucas smiled.

Jin Rou looked at Lucas in another light. He couldn't help but like this kid who was decisive enough to create decisions according to his advantage even if he lost something. He knew when to go forward and back off, he knew his place.

And Jin Rou liked this type of person the most.

"You have done a good decision, congratulations." Jin Rou was thoroughly impressed. This emperor wasn't arrogant in the slightest and in fact, he was pretty humble.

"Thank you for the compliment." Lucas bowed and accepted it. He deserved it.

"Where can we find this Thousand Life Blessing Amulet?" Jin Rou asked. He was willing to do everything to get that thing.

"This..." Lucas was in a deep pinch and didn't know what to say, "It's quite impossible for us to get it as it may put you into danger."

"Just tell me where can we find it." Jin Rou insisted, "Where?"

"It is within the treasury of the Mermaid Water Clan." Lucas answered.

"Mermaid Water Clan?" Jin Rou asked.

"They're real?" All of a sudden, Tiresh appeared and was in shocked, "I thought that they are mere stories from the legends."

"They are real." Lucas said seriously, "It's just that they are very seclusive that they don't interfere with worldy matters. Furthermore, they don't entertain visitors as well."

Mermaids. They were half fish and half human beings that live in the deepest part of the seas. Records said that the Mermaid Water Clan had the power to trample anyone who would dare to trespass their territories. But what was more astounding was their great beauty and melodic voice that could charm anyone.

"So it will be very difficult to have that item from them. The amulet is one of their ancestral treasures so I'm in no doubt they will fight for it even if it cause their lives." Lucas sighed helplessly. He didn't want to mention this because of the severity of the matter, and he didn't want to ask for this because it would take too much trouble even with Jin Rou's level.

"We will get it, of course. After I find what I'm searching for, we're going to the Mermaid Water Clan a visit. Let's see if they won't be willing to let us come in." Jin Rou smirked. He was very curious of this particular race.

"It's not necessary, really. I don't want you to be troubled so much so let's leave this at that." Lucas was trying to persuade Jin Rou. With his temperament, a bloody battle for that amulet was going to take place.

It's not like he didn't have confidence on Jin Rou. It was that this was insane and suicidal task to accomplish. Unless a person had many loose screws in his head, he wouldn't dare to face the Mermaids head on.

"Lucas, if I say it, I will do it. Just a bunch of mermaids, if they try to stop me I don't mind slaughtering their whole clan." Jin Rou was always this merciless to his enemies. He wouldn't stop until he got what he wanted.

Lucas knew that a battle was inevitable now. Tiresh appeared worried for Jin Rou also. After all, he's going to face an entire clan of powerful beings alone. They couldn't do much and they would just baggages to carry there.

Jin Rou knew what their expressions trying to say. But he wouldn't change his mind. Just like he said, it was just a bunch of mermaids. He would try to ask for it nicely and if it wasn't effective, that would be the time to resort to violence.

Of course, he was aware that this would be robbery. But Jin Rou was willing to compensate for the item if ever the clan was willing. All in all, it would depend to how the clan would respond.

Two days passed once again. And they finally could see something.

"Customers, we're about to reach the Port Maria of State Region in a few. Please be advised to follow the rules of going off board." Captain Aron said with a smile.

Tiresh was in deep shock as she saw the massive and towering black wall that they were nearing.

Jin Rou looked at it with no expression while Lucas was also in a deep amazement.

Finally, they were about to reach it.

The State Region.
