Chapter 683 - God King's Legacy
After Jin Rou and the two left the mansion, no one dared to stop him. Although the empress was very reluctant to have things this way, she had no choice. She was afraid that Jin Rou might take out his ire on the empire and countless innocent lives would be taken.
Now that Athena was no longer here, the empire would surely and instantly crumble like a fragile piece of paper. No one even the empress would be able to hold this dangerous situation off the empire.
All the empress could do now was to preserve her people as much as possible.
Emperor Randies was following and asked, "Where are you going now, Your Majesty?"
"Do you know where is the Abandoned Grotto of Heaven?" Jin Rou asked.
"Abandoned Grotto of Heaven?" Emperor Randies was stumped. Of course, he was very familiar of this place, "Your Majesty, that place is very dangerous. Not even Dao Supremes will dare to go to that place unless they are prepared to die."
The Abandoned Grotto of Heaven was a forsaken place, something which was cursed by the heavens. Many Dao Supremes died there and even laws were injured after entering that place.
In the past, Emperor Randies and Ancestor Violet came here together. If not for Ancestor Violet being there, the emperor wouldn't have survived after entering the grotto.
"I see. But no matter how dangerous it is, I still have to go there." Jin Rou smiled.
"May I know the reason, Your Majesty?" The emperor asked. He was feeling a bit fearful because of the resurfacing memories of that place.
"I need to take God King's legacy. That man himself had hidden his legacy there." Jin Rou chuckled, "So I have to go there."
The emperor and Athena were agaped. God King's legacy was located in that very dangerous place? The emperor asked, "If God King's legacy is there, does it mean that his family also knows it?"
"No, God King himself told me that he has yet to tell them where his legacy is. So it's obvious that he wants me to take it." Jin Rou smiled.
"For what reason why God King did this..." Emperor Randies was confused. After pondering for a moment, his eyes widened as he looked at Jin Rou, "Don't tell me that God King wants Your Majesty to do that...?"
"Correct." Jin Rou laughed softly, "Since he failed to accomplish it, he wants me to do it in his stead. Thus, he told me the location of his legacy."
"Your Majesty, are you planning on merging God King's legacy in you?" The emperor was looking at Jin Rou, "Please be reminded that God King's method was only applicable for two legacies. I don't think it will be a good idea to merge three legacies since no one has ever dared to try it."
It was true. God King's merging method had already costed him so many years and resources just to have an ounce of success. And yet, Jin Rou might be planning to take this legacy for himself. It was a suicidal act and everyone would think His Majesty was already crazy.
"You can calm down. I'm not the type of person who will do something without confidence in succeeding it." Jin Rou looked at a faraway distance, "I'm not trying to be a savior of this world, but I have to do something about that monster before I leave. I can only go here once so I have to tie every knot."
"That monster is very powerful, Your Majesty." Emperor Randies took a deep breath, seemingly depressed, "Trillions of years of battling it, according to my ancestors, it's very hard to deal with. I have heard that the seven Universal Laws tried to kill it but they failed to do so. The tenacity of that monster is immense."
The Seven Universal Laws had tried to kill but joining hands during the time immemorial. The battle took several days before coming into a bitter result, failure. The universal laws were injured and monster were severely injured. However, it managed to get away.
Several million years later, it came back and fully recovered and threaten the world once again. Feng Lin was the only one who fought the monster since the six laws were still recuperating from the internal injuries they suffered from battling it out against that monster.
Fortunately, Feng Lin was smart enough to prepare and plan for the monster's attack. Although he didn't manage to kill it, it was sealed helplessly and it'd be a long time before it weakened.
But the time was about to come when the seal was fully destroyed by the monster. The Fate World would be in danger once again.
"God King's legacy contains deeper formation about that monster, he told me." Jin Rou calmly said, "One way or another, someone still has to do something about this, right? So why not me? I'm bored anyways and it will be a great learning experience for me."
The emperor's lips twitched. He didn't know if His Majesty was crazy or dumb. Hopeless, he just took a deep breath and said, "Then how about after you take God King's legacy, you come with me to our empire? The ancestor has been pestering me to take you to our place."
Jin Rou nodded and agreed, "Sure, let's do it. I'm also curious what the empire boasting the highest economy in the world looks like."
Purple Haven Empire was the home of businesses. Their economic status was the highest of all, being the leading empire in the market. Although they were solely focused in businesses, not even other empires would dare to attack them. They had numerous big clients that kingdoms and empires wouldn't want to be in their bad side of the book.
After that talk, the emperor went off to find a portal scroll leading to the Abandoned Grotto of Heaven with Athena while Jin Rou was waiting for them.
However, in truth, the emperor already had it and just wanted to talk to Athena alone.
"Athena, right?" Emperor Randies was staring at the lady in blue dress, "You have to do good and be on the good side of His Majesty. Just a while ago, I can feel you're scheming something.. So I advise you not to dare do it."
