It was an old man wearing a black robe. Judging by his appearance, time had taken a toll on him and it looked like his days were already numbered.
Han Li was very familiar with this man. He couldn't help but sigh, "You are already so old. You don't have to come into being."
"If that's the case, I won't be able to see you again Your Majesty." The old man said. His voice was cold but he was happy, "It's been a while and I have been waiting to meet you again."
"Why? What do you need to actually sacrifice your bit of lifespan to come here and meet me?" Jin Rou asked. Despite the old man being so strong, he was already too old. The days of his were numbered and he might die the next day.
"Please help Kuzka. He was tempted by the other side and joined them." The old man pleaded, "I'm not asking you to save him, Your Majesty. All I wish is you give him a mercy kill."
Jin Rou sighed. Kuzka. He was one of the most brilliant students Han Li had in this world. With the extreme talents he showed, it was already given that he'd be an immortal sovereign. And as expected, he became one. He decided to venture out to the world and leave the home he had. Who would have thought that he'd given up to the other side?

"Why did he surrender?" Jin Rou asked. As far as he could remember from Han Li's memories, Kuzka was the hard headed type. Furthermore, his dao heart was a step away to be firm and unbreakable. With this, it was a surprise that he'd given up his humanity.
"Because he fell in love with a woman on the other side." The old man wryly smiled.
"That idiot. He was talented extremely, sure. But he's also an extremely idiot." Jin Rou rubbed his temples. Love was a very lethal thing. Even the strongest existences were frail in front of love.
"Go back for now. You know that you cannot expose yourself here or else you'll be the hottest topic the next day." Jin Rou dismissed him, "About that brat, I'll think about it. It's up to my mood whether to grant your wish or not."
"Thank you, Your Majesty." The old man bowed, "I hope you remain invincible for the next eras."
"Of course, I will. That's why you better have your youngsters in check. Don't let them participate in this scheme I created or else I cannot promise you they wouldn't die here." Jin Rou said.
"Don't worry, Your Majesty. The younglings of us will not join in. Besides, the Luminous Immortal Sovereign's treasury will be up to your taking. Those coming idiot will just be offering their to you." The old man spoke. It's been a while since he had spoken this much.
"True. I just want to see how far could they go for the sake of this treasury. Hmm, even you will be greatly tempted. That sovereign's treasury is too much." Jin Rou chuckled.
"Then, I'll be leaving now Your Majesty." The old man knew that he's being tested, "Please take care of yourself. If there's a chance, please also visit us. The old ancestor has been missing you."
After that, the old man disappeared. There was no trace of him. Jin Rou shook his head. He knew that old ancestor he's talking about. Nevertheless, it wasn't in his mind to pay a visit there.
"Rumble!" After half an hour, many people finally arrived at the place. All kinds of lineages had appeared and brought to the powerful ancestors. They were confused as why a young man was standing not far away from them alone.
"Goodness. Two supreme lineages had arrived! Azure Dragon Sect and Vermillion Palace!" One spectator shouted as he saw the two supreme lineages came at the same time.
Azure Dragon Sect was a supreme lineage createe by the Blackdragon Progenitor, a strong immortal sovereign in his era. The sect had swept the realms too many times that it was etched to people's minds that they were one of the strongest. With a history spanning for trillions of years, it's no wonder they were so strong right now.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe same went with Vermillion Palace. Created by Vermillion Progenitor, they stood shoulder to shoulder with Azure Dragon Sect. However in terms of oldness, the palace fell short as their progenitor created the palace an era later than the Azure Dragon Sect. Nevertheless, their prowess couldn't be underestimated.
Right now, they brought powerful ancient paragons and would likely take the lead to the treasury.
Of course, how could the Wild Temple Gate and Sky Immortal Sect not join in the fun? They also had arrived with their powerful ancestors. With Wild Temple Gate here, there were three behemoths that would rule the place.
"You young man over there. Why are you standing there? Go back to the sect you came from. Our team will lead the way to the treasury." A paragon of Azure Dragon Sect shouted. His voice was filled with arrogance, shooing the man away.
"That's Azurewild Ancestor, a powerful ancient paragon of this era. Of all 7 paragons present, he is indeed the most qualified to talk." An expert said.
The two supreme lineages had brought two ancient paragons each. Wild Temple Gate brought also two and Sky Immortal Sect brought one.
Receiving no response, Azurewild was agigated and said, "I know you can hear me. So I advise you to get away from that place. This is my last warning or else face the consequence."
Azurewild Ancestor never showed mercy to his enemies. His path was filled with blood and bones of them. He was too tyrannical that many were afraid of crossing paths with him.
"A lowly insect dares to come here and threat me. Do you think that this treasury is yours? Sorry to break your bubble but the entire things here are all mine. First come, first served." Jin Rou finally talked.. He was just searching a treasure from the mountains of resources and treasures here thus he couldn't answer the paragon immediately.
