The Adventures Of The Young Master

Chapter 839 Dark Train

"There are two paths you can take inside the Dark Train. One, you can be a permanent passenger of this train. And two, you can be a 'challenger'." The panda explained the important details without further ado.

The two paths were necessary for the passengers as it would direct towards the future they chose. Being a 'resident' of this train had many benefits, including the protection rights and a bit loose constraints. While being the 'challenger' would be hard. Not to mention the loss of exclusive protection rights, the constraints of the train would also bind you. Meaning, you couldn't exert much power you used to do.

The challenger path was for those who seek to get out of the Dark Train.

"So that's it. You may now choose what you want to take." The panda was still grinning as if he was expecting something interesting.

"Being a resident, how many constraint chains are unbinded?" Jin Rou asked.

"You knew the constraint chains?" The panda found it amusing, "The lowest ranked resident will lose two constraint chains while the highest ranked resident will have several constraint chains unbinded."

Jin Rou chuckled. The panda purposely hid the most important information. Nevertheless, he already gotten the gist of it and said, "Then we will choose to become a resident here."

The panda was surprised to hear this. It wasn't within its expectations for the other party to become a resident, "Are you sure? Permanent residency here means that you cannot go out of the train for the rest of your lives. You will live and die in this place."

"We are sure." Jin Rou smiled.

Sylvianna looked weirdly at Jin Rou. What the hell was he thinking? Shouldn't they choose the challenger path since their main goal was to get out of here when the train reached the last destination?

The panda knew that the man was scheming something, so it warned him, "Let me warn you. Don't try to act powerful inside the train. Even the Heavens couldn't touch us when inside, what's more for you?"

The heavens tried to rob the authority the Dark Train had in the past. Unfortunately, it wasn't successful and the old man suffered grave injuries.

"Calm down. I'm not thinking such thoughts. We just want to lay down in peace and avoid wars and blood. That's all." Jin Rou said with a soothing voice.

"Since you insist, the train will now grant you the resident rights. You can freely roam the cabins unless the cabin needs a high ranked authority pass. In anyway, though you are residents now, you have to tend for yourselves." The panda said as it waved its hands, "I have done my job now so I'll be going. Remember, don't do anything stupid or you might find yourself with a fate worse than death."

After that, the panda left. Jin Rou looked at the number of the cabin they were in. It was stated that it's '0' cabin. Moreover, gentle energies entered their bodies. It was probably the resident rights.

"Now we have to go to the Cabin 1." Jin Rou said, "The resident rights will have us granted entry there."

"What are you scheming?" Sylvianna couldn't contain her curiosity, "You know that being a resident here means that we are forever prisoners of this place."

"Hmm, you have a point. But that's not necessarily the case." Jin Rou smiled, "You see, I like beating masters in their own game."

"This game is very risky and it might cost your life and mine." Sylvianna rolled her eyes, "Just tell me the reason why you chose to be a resident instead of a challenger."

Jin Rou looked at her and laughed, "The Dark Train has lived for too long and the balance isn't turned in any direction. I just want to overthrow the balance of this world, something which the apex predators of this world wouldn't like to see."

Sylvianna wanted to ask more when she was suddenly hit with realizations. Her eyes widened as she murmured, "Don't tell me..."

"Bingo." Jin Rou clapped his hands.

"This is nuts! Not even our family will dare to do this!" Sylvianna was stumped. Did Han Li go mad after so many failures?

"Your family won't, but I will. And I can." Jin Rou said with confidence, "That's why your family cannot compete with the old man. Your mindset and dao heart have been set already without trying to do something about it."

"Is it fun rubbing salt on my wounds?" Sylvianna felt insulted. Though it wasn't the first time, she still felt so much displeasure when her family was being badmouthed.

"Sylvianna Blackmauve, if you cannot accept the fact that your family is a bunch of cowards, then I can spend heavy resources to get out of you here and fend for yourself. After all, if you cannot accept truths, then you will be useless to me." Jin Rou said. This time, his tone was cold.

She bit her lip. She didn't want to say more or Jin Rou might really throw her out. Honestly speaking, she wasn't confident in living alone because she knew that many old beings were trying to get their hands on a Blackmauve. After all, their blood and flesh were beneficial.

"They didn't fight until the end. Until they had the answer. They just tuck their tails between their legs and hid under the pretense of protecting the family. So what happened in the end? Total destruction and your family didn't benefit anything. If there is, they became precious main course dishes to the calamity. That is the truth, and not even you can question it." Jin Rou said and left the cabin.

--

Right now, the duo already reached the Cabin 1. It was a place filled with gigantic trees and whatnot. There were many people here and all types of races could be seen. It looked like a city in the middle of the forest.

Jin Rou and Sylvianna needed to reach the Cabin 3 as the former's goal was there. She didn't ask anymore and remained silent along the journey.

The moment the two stepped on the boundaries of the city, red transparent walls appeared out of nowhere.
