The Adventures Of The Young Master

"I have to admit it. That is the strongest sword energy I have ever encountered." Jin Rou spoke in a calm tone. His left arm was bloodied and he couldn't feel or move it as of now. It was greatly damaged because it was what he used a while ago. If not for having Beline's legacy right now, he wouldn't be able to remain standing.

"The power of a dual law is fascinating." God King smiled, "Daoist Friend, it seems we aren't a match for you. We have lost."

Everyone who heard this gaped. God King, the current strongest existence of the world, admitted defeat! They looked at Jin Rou who was a very handsome man who could shy the heavens with his looks. They were imprinting his face so that they could their disciples and ancestors to not offend this person.

"Indeed, you have lost. And you have to die." Jin Rou said. It was natural, he wouldn't spare his master's enemies alive, "But before that, I want to ask you something."

"Ask away while I'm still alive." God King chuckled.

"Why did you kill my master? From what I know, you are one of the trusted brothers of my master and he helped you countless of times. Why?" Jin Rou asked filled with grievances. He couldn't understand the whole reason why a trusted brother like God King betrayed someone who cherished and loved him like a true brother.

God King was silent for a moment. He closed his eyes and then looked at the dimmed sky. It was noon yet the sun wasn't showing itself. After which, he spoke slowly to answer Jin Rou, "In order to save the world. I need Feng Lin's power in order to have a fighting chance against that existence."

"Elaborate." Jin Rou demanded.

"Aside from us Universal Laws, there is a terrifying monster that threats the entire Fate World. Even Feng Lin could only seal it in the past. Now, the seal is weakening and anytime soon it will come out. It is a tragedy and calamity for the Fate World as it's stronger than us laws alone." God King explained, "That's why I created the merging method which you have used. The method and Feng Lin's legacy are the only hope to kill this existence."

"So you want to be a savior?" Jin Rou asked.

"Savior? Why would I want to be?" God King smiled wryly as he shook his head, "I just want to save the world no matter what it costs. Even if I have to betray more people to save it, I don't care. As a matter of fact, even I can turn back time, I will still betray Feng Lin nevertheless. I am willing to become the sinner of the world to save it."

Everyone was speechless when they heard this, their mouths were agape. God King was willing to go this far for the sake of the world. He didn't even want to be branded as a savior and perhaps just wanted to do the deed without people knowing.

"I see. So this is your choice." Jin Rou said.

"No, this is not a choice." God King smiled, "This is my resolve."

"I see. That monster, how powerful is it?" Jin Rou asked.

"Very powerful. More than what you can imagine." God King said, "It's older than any laws of the world. As a matter of fact, it's created by a certain hatred of a very distant past where even Fate World isn't yet created. So you can imagine why even Feng Lin could only seal it temporarily."

The monster was a very terrifying existence since the start of chaos and time. It was perhaps on the same level or near the level of the Creator. Although it was sealed right now, the seal was weakening by the day and it wasn't a good sign.

"I have known what I want to know." Jin Rou said, "I will give you two choices. Will you be devoured by my White Flame Phoenix or you three kill yourselves?"

Those who heard it eventually sighed. So everything would still come to this end. There was no one to blame. After all, everything had a cause and effect. The law of karma attracts everything so what you did would have a corresponding response in return to it.

"Brothers, it looks like this is our end." God King sighed, "I'm sorry for not being able to protect you two and I even dragged you in this mess."

"What are you saying? We have joined you in our own accord. We have nothing to regret." Bloodflaw was usually a hot tempered guy, yet he was calm right now even before death, "I and Noah am very happy to serve under your banner, God King. Because of you, our boring lives have been colored."

It was true. They were already at the peak and they were worrying less aside from that monster. When God King came to them and proposed to plan to slay the monster, they were all thrilled. After all, it was an endeavor to kill a monster above of their level.

"It's true. We aren't regretting for following you, God King." Noah smiled. They were all by the death's door now and he wanted to pass away in peace. This plan was a double edged sword. If they succeed, benefits will be there. But if they fail, it's a total destruction for them and their empires.

Perhaps this was their karma now but they weren't afraid of it.

"I also didn't regret having you two here." God King chuckled weakly, "I hope if ever we have next lifetime, we will still be brothers."

For Noah and God King who had lived for so trillions of years now, living was tiring and this incoming death was a relief to them. At the very least, they wouldn't have to bear the responsibility of saving the world from that monster. For Bloodflaw, he was willing to follow God King even in death, and had lived his life for so long now, too.

God King looked at Jin Rou and said, "Everything is now up to your hands, Daoist Friend."
