Novel Full Chapter 452 - New Plaza
"Okay. Take care." Jin Rou casually said.
"You're not going to come with me there?" The princess directly asked what she wanted to ask. If it's possible, she wanted Jin Rou to come with her. After all, it would be much safer with him.
"Will that place benefit me in any way?" Jin Rou asked.
"Uh?" The princess was speechless for a moment, "I don't know. But maybe, you can see many beautiful sceneries...?"
"I don't need any sceneries. If there's a benefit I'm talking about, that's a power up for my near battle." Jin Rou shook his head. He was clearly refusing the princess unless there was something for him in it.
The princess was almost choked by her saliva. Many men were dying to be with her yet this man have really had the guts of steel to deny her. With her physical appearance, everyone should be fawning over. But not this man called Jin.
"I think it would be better if you stay out of home for a while. Like for a few months, you will be out of your country." Jin Rou took back what he said a while ago, "Go and find that garden you're talking about."
The princess didn't know what was he on about but she asked the same thing, "You're not going to come with me? Is that final?"
For some reason, she was not willing to part with Jin Rou. At least, not for now. She wanted him to accompany her through this journey.
"I told you that if there's no benefit for me there, I'm not planning to go." Jin Rou still stood with his words, "So you go and take care. Also, change your appearance. You don't want people taking scandals about you when you roam around with a face like that."
"Why, am I that ugly?" The princess pouted and asked. She stopped forcing her luck to make Jin Rou come with her.
"No, you are beautiful. So cover it up so you won't make any incidents around the place you'll be in." Jin Rou said with honesty. In actuality, he really could see that Shale was very beautiful. In fact, the most beautiful that he ever had seen. It was just that he wasn't interested on her or feel any connection. That's why he was ignoring it.
"..." The princess dazed for so long that she stood there motionless. Jin Rou had already bid his goodbye, yet she was still motionless and was looking at a distant horizon.
"Where is he?" Finally, after that long while, she snapped out of it. It was already near sunset and Jin Rou was nowhere to be found. Judging by the situation, he must already have left. So she felt depressed inside her heart. Nevertheless, having a compliment from him was like an achievement for her and it made her heart bloom with flowers and butterflies. The millions of praises and compliments she got from other people never worthed this much even if they were combined.
She was looking forward in meeting him in the near future.

Jin Rou had already left the vicinity of the Immortal Pond. And currently, he was now in a place called New Plaza in a different kingdom. This place wasn't as lively as the name it pertained. It looked old and ancient as if battles counting up to millions have happened here. He could feel the intense auras left here as if they were indignant about what transpired in the past.
Jin Rou used some random coordinates to get here. So he didn't know exactly what this place was except for the plaque with the New Plaza word.
"Even zeniths with 13 crowns fought here." Jin Rou could sense the power and could deduce their actual power level, "And those 13 crowns were fighting someone of a higher level. I don't know who or what since it's hazy."
13-crown zeniths were always alone and fight alone. After all, they were powerful enough to look down the world. Yet, what kind of existence did they fight here for them to team up? Jin Rou couldn't help but be curious. Unfortunately, the clues have ended there and even after so much search in this vast place, there's nothing connected to it was found.
So, Jin Rou decided to roam around instead. He might see something worthwhile here. After some time of roaming, he saw a small hut. It had no distinguished features, or whatever. It was just a normal small hut with nothing worthy to mention.
Jin Rou decided to take a good look inside and saw a rundown look. It looked like it was abandoned for millions of years now, yet there was an ancient aura here that Jin Rou could sense.
The ancient aura was coming from a book on a study desk. It was worn out and was filled with broken pages as Jin Rou skimmed through it. It was an unknown language for Jin Rou but because of his power level, he could understand some of it.
"I never have expected that I'll be having an unexpected visitor." Jin Rou almost leapt up from shock when he heard this deep voice. As a law, he should've notice this being when he came around. Yet, he was oblivious until it spoke!
Could this be the existence that those 13 crowns had faced off? It was not an impossibility. After all, Jin Rou, even at his level, could feel danger coming from this being!
Jin Rou faced where the voice came from and his eyes widened in more surprise. The being had a jet-black skin with a single horn in his right side. Its hair was long reaching the ground. Furthermore, it was an old man judging by its physical appearance.
"Devil...?" Jin Rou was almost left speechless.
"Ah, it has been so many millions of years have passed since someone actually called me like that." The devil old man laughed weakly, "I have been confined in this place for so many years. So I don't know how much time has actually passed by."
