Novel Full Chapter 139 - Are You A Threat?
"Welcome to Lovey Dovey Sect, dear guests!" Yuna Sierra greeted the guests with an amicable smile.
As soon as they saw Yuna Sierra, they dazed off as if their souls were snatched. The beauty in front of them was not something could be compared with anything in this world. Even their Royal Princess paled in comparison!
"Thank you." the Royal King was also the same. However, he immediately snapped out of it. It would be embarrassing if an unknown woman enchanted the king. But besides her beauty, he could feel that this woman was dangerous. He always trusted what his instincts were telling him, and it never failed him once.
"Our sectmaster is waiting for you in the meeting hall, so please." Yuna Sierra gestured to them to proceed.
---
What met then when they entered was a breath-taking mansion standing. A vast and high mansion at that! The walls seemed like impregnable and carried an eerie aura. If they wanted to compare their castle to this, the result would be humiliating for them.
Inside the meeting hall.
"Welcome! Please take your sit." Jin Rou met them and gestured to sit down.
However, Byakuria interjected in displeasure, "You should get on your knees to pay respect to the king of this world."
"Why should I?" Jin Rou smiled. To think that this person wanted him, the Celestial King, to get on his knees to pay respect to a low king? He found this funny.
"Because he is the king!" Byakuria felt humiliated and lashed in anger. Although they were the guests, as the royal king personally coming here, he thought that they should pay respect to the king since this was a proper and must courtesy when meeting him. After all, not all the times could one meet the king face to face.
Yuna Sierra frowned deeply and was about to attack, however, Jin Rou signaled her to stop.
"Byukaria, it's okay." although the king was displeased because of this, he let it slipped by.
When the two parties calmed down, a momentary silence filled the void.
"Then let's skip pleasantries and get to the main topic, why the royal king paid me a visit?" Jin Rou immediately asked what should be asked without turning any points.
"Before that, I request to speak alone with you." the king said.
Jin Rou signaled Yuna Sierra to leave, and she immediately acknowledged it. Byakuria and the Royal Knights also followed suit.
"Now, we are alone." Jin Rou crossed his leg in an imposing manner which shocked the king.
The king introduced himself first, "I am the Royal King Zao Dong of the Royal Castle. I heard that a staff of our branch mistreated you, so please forgive him if possible."
Jin Rou did not say anything and just smiled. What kind of reaction was this? Receiving no response, he proceeded to the main topic.
The king frowned a bit and asked, "Are you a threat?"
He tried to gauge the exact cultivation of Jin Rou, however, it was so deep that it was like an endless black abyss.
For the first time of his life, his instinct told him that this man was someone he could not afford to offend.
Very dangerous.
"So you visit my sect because you are worrying if I am a threat? If I am, you will do all means to eliminate me?" Jin Rou asked.
Zao Dong could not help but gulped a mouthful of saliva before answering, "Precisely."
"How funny." Jin Rou could not help but chuckle, "It seems you've wasted your trip going here. As long as I am not provoked, I will not retaliate. That's all."
"So you won't mindlessly kill people?" Zao Dong asked.
"Why should I?" Jin Rou leaned back to the chair and said, "Unless they come knocking my door."
"I see." For some reason, the king felt relief. Probably because his instinct was telling him that if they fight, his lose was already determined from the very start, "Then, why can't I see your cultivation?"
This question was something that could be categorized as personal. However, Jin Rou did not mind this and answered honestly, "Because you are too weak. With your cultivation of Emperor, ninth stage, you can't expect to see mine."
The king almost stood up instinctively because of these words, his mind and body were extremely shocked that it was blank, "How..."
He knew himself how deep he hid his cultivation. After all, he did not want the other party to see the strength of the strongest being of this world.
However, little did he know that the being in front of him was someone he could not dare to offend once he knew.
Is he from the Rou Celestial Family...? — He thought. However, he immediately brushed it aside, —No, impossible. There is no being with such an average face in that family and why would those Gods descend here?
As the king, he also knew some basic knowledge regarding the overseeing Gods of this universe.
"So, do you have more questions?" Jin Rou said, waking up the king from his daze.
"Ahh, no..." Zao Dong felt like he was naked in front of this person, sweats stream down his face. He prepared tons of questions, that it may already seem interrogation, in his arsenal. However, he was intimidated by the words of this young man. No matter how much he refuses to believe, reality will just slap it to him.
"Then let's conclude our talk here." Jin Rou said as he stood up, "As long as you don't come to provoke me or whoever in my sect, I will not retaliate, just like I said. So if you are still thinking of how to get rid of me, forget it. You will just send useless deaths to me and you will earn my grudge."
The king engraved these words to his heart and mind. He sighed in his heart and muttered, 'Why do I feel like he is the king instead of me?'
"Alright then." The king smiled wryly and said, "Next time, let's talk about forming a friendship between our powerhouses. So, see you in the Sect Wars." He extended his right hand.
"Sure." Jin Rou was about to extend his hand to shake with him when the void trembled slightly. He could not help but chuckle,
"Speaking of provoking me, fools come knocking my door again."
