The Adventures Of The Young Master

Chapter 985 A Woman

While the two were worried about Jin Rou, the origin of worry was in a different space. He slowly opened his eyes and discovered that he was no longer in the area plateau. No, he's not even in Dragon Sky now.

He observed the surroundings. It was a vast and peaceful ocean with birds flying over him. He was currently floating on the large body of water in a small boat. There was no one with him but he knew there was someone observing him, or something.

Jin Rou looked at the blue sky and said, "What do you want? You even pulled me out of Hundred Dragons Plateau."

"What do you think you're doing? Why are you here in Mortalis again?" A woman's voice sounded from the sky, "Do you know that you're already a topic in the central because of your emergence in this world?"

"Why, what do you care about?" Jin Rou chuckled. He recognized this voice very well, "This is my path, and no one will stop. Not even you."

"You survived the last challenge, but do you think those old men will let you survive this time around? You still have a chance to go back from whence you came. Just lay low in the Nine Heavens, or start a sect." The woman's voice sounded again. There was a hint of disappointment and worry in her voice.

"You are not the one to dictate the path I should take. This is my decision, and it's final." Jin Rou was determined. Even if he didn't want to do this, what choice did he has? He was cornered, to begin with.

"You're going to die." The woman warned, "They are preparing more and more for your expected arrival. Not even your followers and students in central will be able to save you."

"I don't need their assistances, in the first place." Jin Rou shook his head, "Did you just pull me here to tell me that I'm going to die in Central God Region?"

He chuckled and continued, "You sure have grown worried about me."

"Cut the crap, Li." The woman was angered, "If you don't care about your life, then care about your daughter and her mother."

Jin Rou creased his brows and asked, "What do you mean?"

"The old man has discovered that Tian Era Emperor's granddaughter is your daughter, Han Li." The woman explained, "The old man spent heavy resources to find this truth and no one cannot deny it, not even you."

"So he wants to touch them now?" Jin Rou's aura suddenly turned cold and oppressive. The entire calm sea became turbulent as he looked at the sky.

"He plans to, if you keep on challenging his patience." The woman said. She was a prominent character in central, so her words weighed heavy, "So go back and just live your life in peace. The old man will not pursue this further if you just lay low and not cause trouble for him."

Jin Rou sneered as he heard this, "What a joke. Lady, do you really think that the old man will let me be if I leave now and turn my back? For many times that I faced him, he is more cunning and vicious than you thought he was."

"So you want to risk your life and your daughter?" The woman's tone was flat and cold, "Do you think Tian Era Emperor will be able to save the both of them in the hands of the old man? He can save himself knowing he is a 12-Words, but his daughter and granddaughter? I don't think so."

"Old Tian didn't need to save them. As nothing will happen to them, anyway." Jin Rou harrumphed. He got up in the boat and shouted, "And why don't you bring your real body to talk to me, anyway? Instead of using this lousy voice here."

"You know that I can't." The woman answered, "With the restrictions of Western Emperor Region, I cannot possibly manipulate the space and be here personally."

That's true. Aside from era emperors, the very restricted existences here in the west would be the epoch saints. Once they appear here in the region, heaven chains would soon bind them and the heavenly system would punish them no matter how prestigious their background was.

The natural constraints of the Western Emperor Region was to keep the balance of the said region. After all, it was the home of era emperors.

"But with your treasures, being here is easy as pie for you." Jin Rou said, "Not to mention, your heavenly sect is always prepared to spend their resources on you being their saint."

The woman didn't know if this was a compliment or a sarcasm, but she felt it to be the latter. In any case, she ignored it and said, "I have done everything to warn you, Han Li. If you ever appear in the central, don't think about getting a peaceful life there. Thousand sects and families will hunt you down, with the risk of your daughter and wife getting implicated."

"This is something that you shouldn't worry about yourself." Jin Rou spoke flatly, "Worry about the state of your sect, instead."

The woman snorted and said, "I'll retrieve this space now. Remember my advice, whether to heed it or not, it's up to you. Though I already know the answer."

After that, the whole place shook and everything became spiral. Jin Rou closed his eyes.

"Let's try to find the Young Noble." Fiarra couldn't take it anymore and stood up. She was so worried that she wanted to search for the inch and meters of every corner here.

Andreo was about to agree when he saw a familiar figure walking towards them. He heaved a sigh of relief as he looked at the figure.

Fiarra also looked at the figure and smiled with deep long sigh of relief. She almost thought that they were abandoned. Thankfully, it wasn't the case.

Jin Rou couldn't help but smile as he looked at the bewildered yet relieved faces of the two and teased, "Missed me that much?"
