The Adventures Of The Young Master

Chapter 536 - Straw Ancient Emperor

The State Region was established since time immemorial and no one knew its true origin, even the Darkglow Clan. This place was filled with chaos energy that you would feel uncomfortable of if you weren't used to it. The feeling would be heavy and gritting, to the point that you'd lose your sanity if you were unlucky.

But for those who have an affinity with chaos, this place was heaven as it had the thickest chaos dao in the whole continent. The clouds above this region was gray that it looked it was about to rain, moving in a circular motion. This place had never been shone by sunlight.

"Gentlemen, we're here." Captain Aron hopped off the ship's bridge and smiled, "This is the State Region, our destination."

Jin Rou looked at the towering black wall that pierced the sky. It looked like you couldn't enter this place unless they gave you entry or you destroy it.

"This is the nearest we can take you as if we go further, we will be trespassing. It will be up to you to walk over there." The captain smiled wryly. He didn't want to get to the bad side of the rulers of the region, thus he was like this.

Jin Rou laughed. He knew it. Anyway, they were near the port and there would be no problem flying over there, so it was okay.

After bidding the captain goodbye, the trio moved on to the Port Maria, the only one port of State Region.

There, soldiers were lined up with a single person in the middle who looked like the commander of the troop. Jin Rou knew that the region would be alerted of their arrival and this was a natural course of action.

"We have not received a notice from the upper echelons of people paying us a visit." The commander said with a cold voice, "So speak, who are you and why are you here knowing that our region is off-limits to the public?"

"I am Lucas Straw or people call me Straw Ancient Emperor. We are here to seek for permission to enter the region as we have an urgent thing to deal with." Lucas introduced himself.

The commander was shaken. To think that the legendary and youngest emperor of the era was here! Straw Ancient Emperor. It was a very popular name that commanded awe and respect in the masses. He was the role model of the youth and many people even old beings idolized him.

Tiresh looked at Lucas with surprise. This man could hide it well! Even in her continent, Endless Forest, Straw Ancient Emperor was very popular too. After all, he defeated a darkness being in the past.

"This..." The commander didn't know what to say. It was an emperor he was talking to. How he was supposed to decline him entry knowing the latter's status was greater than him? No, he had no power to do so. Thus, he was stuck in a rock and a hard place.

"We promise that we will not be giving the respected clan any trouble." Lucas said. He was pushing the matter into its limits.

"No can do." However, an old woman appeared and answered. She was wearing a black robe with a unique style of design. It had a mixture of black and yellow hue which complemented each other so much, "Since an emperor has appeared, it is only natural for me to appear."

She paused for a moment and examined the three visitors before saying, "I am one of the Darkglow Clan's Ancient Emperor, Archer."

"Archer Ancient Empress, it's nice meeting you." Lucas bowed to the empress and said. In terms of seniority, the empress was way older than him so he must do this, "However, please grant us entry. I will put my name and life at stake that if ever we caused trouble, you can punish me."

The empress creased her brows. She was wondering why would this young, talented, and brilliant emperor of this era was taking lengths to enter the place? Nevertheless the less, she still answered, "Straw Ancient Emperor, you have my admiration for your talents but as our iron law, no one is to be granted entry in our turf. So, please go back from whence you came."

It was a proper rejection this time. But it still felt bitter in Lucas' mouth. If ever he pushed this matter again, the empress might be angered and attack them. If that happened, Jin Rou would surely take action and kill her, leading to a serious conflict that couldn't be fixed. By that time, it was a dead end and the only choice was to attack directly.

He didn't want that to happen. He wanted to do this diplomatically. After all, the Darkglow Clan was a behemoth that stood above all!

"This nonsense is getting in my nerves." Finally, Jin Rou spoke and Lucas almost lost his soul, "You are but a mere emperor that has no chance to live past 500 years now. Why are you so adamant in sticking up in your rules? Oh I see, you folks are afraid that a secret of your clan will be revealed."

The empress was about to get angry but when she heard the last part, she felt her body shook. She looked at Jin Rou with disbelief and gave answers to Jin Rou's speculations.

"Bingo." Jin Rou was right. It was just a wild guess in his part yet it was right. Although it was only a brief moment that the empress showed that pale face, he managed to catch it.

"Now, instead of you doing the talk. Why don't we invite that old man heavenly above watching silently here?" Jin Rou looked at the sky and smiled.

"Old man heavenly?" Lucas was surprised to hear these words. Did it mean that...

"Hahaha!" Suddenly, an old laugh resounded, "Child, I like you. You can easily see through me and my cultivation. You must be a powerful young man. You have my greatest admiration."

Then, an old man appeared. Unlike the empress, this old man had great vitality running into his veins as if he was youth.

Lucas and Tiresh could feel an intense pressure coming from this being. The emperor's instincts were telling him not to antagonize him or else he would die!
