Chapter 638 - The Creator's Deal [Volume 7, Fate World]
Jin Rou sighed in relief as he heard this. He felt that all the circumstances he had undergone was worth it. After all, the deal's end was given by both parties and Jin Rou had no qualms about this. He imagined that Syni might be jumping in joy as her mother came back. No, the Su Celestial Family of Colossal State Universe might be jumping in joy right now. Thinking about this, he couldn't help but smile.
"Since our deal has came to an end, let's start another one." The Creator said. This time, its voice had a hint of seriousness, "I know that you want to make a trip to Fate World."
"I'm not surprised you are eavesdropping on my recent conversation." Jin Rou smirked, "Indeed, that's right. I want to go there."
"Since you want to go there, let's make a deal. This is an utmost importance, and it's only you who has the probability of accomplishing this." The Creator explained, "A Universal Law has died recently and people over there are going crazy searching for it. I want you to find it and stop those people from seizing the legacy inheritance."
Once a law died, his or her legacy would appear in the world. However, it would be unknown where it probably might hiding. This was the actual case when a law had no successor to speak of. Unlike Jin Rou's master, the master had already named Jin Rou as his successor before he died.
Although the location was unknown, many people were using their utmost resources to locate the inheritance. Who wouldn't want that? There were only seven laws at maximum. They all stood at the pinnacle of the world.
"Aren't you putting me in a very dangerous situation?" Jin Rou smiled wryly. For sure, many powerhouses of that world were crazy to searching for it. What would happen if in case he happened to get the inheritance? Wouldn't he be the target of all there? Countless empires and kingdoms would chase after him while he ran for his life. As a matter of fact, the other laws would surely make a move.
Just think about it. Jin Rou was a universal law himself and he got another law legacy. Wouldn't it attract many predators to pounce on him?
"I know. That's why I'm not forcing you. However, you have to make your own way to ascend there." The Creator took a deep sigh, "I'm not kidding but unless you have the Transcendence Stone, you shouldn't think of ascending there. Unfortunately, the stones had run out and the heaven and earth couldn't make it as of now."
"So my only way is to accept your proposal and the danger?" Jin Rou sneered. This being wasn't even hiding its intentions of using him to stop those predators. It was leaving him with no choice but to accept the deal.
"Of course, I won't make you undergo such difficulties without compensation for it." The Creator said, "Just state your price. I am sure to give it to you."
"You better do." Jin Rou could see the future headaches coming in his way. Nevertheless, he had no choice either. He already made a deal with the little girl, how could he go back on his word? At the very least, he had to try, "Let's discuss it when I come here again."
"Very well. Here is the portal leading to Fate World." The Creator said and a large portal appeared. It had major ancient drawings around and explained, "This portal can only be used once every hundred thousand years. Meaning, you only have one chance of going there."
The Creator himself could go back and forth to that world without difficulty. However, it was different to others even with the Creator's capabilities.
"Will I face thunders or any sort of tribulations while traveling?" Jin Rou could vividly remember the travel he had to go through to reach Immortal. He didn't wish to be scammed again.
The Creator didn't speak for a moment before laughing out loud, "Friend Jin, it seems you are keeping tabs on me."
"Indeed, I am. I will personally collect it when I return from Fate World." Jin Rou smirked. So far, this trip would be the most dangerous thing he would do. Perhaps, it would also be the last.
"Very well, I wish you good luck Friend Jin." The Creator chuckled, "I am aware of your capabilities, but still please be careful. The other laws are stronger than you, cultivation-wise and experience-wise."
"I know." Jin Rou nodded and looked at Schwal Coffin, handing over a certain treasure, "Here. It is for you. It will help you and your cultivation to soar by bounds."
It was the last thing that Jin Rou could give to Schwal. That item was precious enough to make those in her clan crazy over it.
Schwal accepted the treasure with tears threatening to roll down her beautiful face. She bowed down in respect and said, "Young Master, I will always remember your kindness."
Jin Rou accepted the gesture and nodded, "Rise. You will reach the peak of your dao soon by the help of the treasure. I wish you the best of luck."
It was the first time that Schwal showed great respect to another. She used to hate humans for being so greedy bastards who only used them and her clan to their advantage without thinking about their feelings. Jin Rou could use her coffin for so many things, yet he refrained from doing so not because she was useless in his eyes, but there was no need to do it. After all, Jin Rou was also aware that it was taking stress to the living treasures when they were being used.
"Please take care. And see you again, Young Master." Schwal softly spoke. It was the first time she showed this side and even she was surprised.
Jin Rou nodded and entered the portal without turning back.
"The Young Master, will he return?" Schwal said with worry in her eyes.
"He has the brain and capability to do so. So he has a high chance of returning alive. Don't worry about it.." The Creator answered his question.
