The Adventures Of The Young Master

"Ahhh!" The attack, which the emperor made himself, was the one which hurt him. He was thrown away several kilometers until he bumped into a tree, spatting so much bad blood.

That was the finishing touch that Jin Rou needed in order to defeat the emperor. He didn't even need to use any of his arts to defeat him. It was obvious. After all, although they were both universal laws, Jin Rou was a legitimate and compatible person while the emperor forced his way, losing all his life in the process. Right now, even if he were to defeat Jin Rou, he would still die after an hour or so.

"Grug!" The emperor spat another mouthful of blood. His vision was turning blurry and his head was spinning. He knew that his time was about to come, and he couldn't help but curse under his breath.

"It can't end this way. Once I die, the entire family will sure fall because he will kill them one by one." The emperor couldn't avoid his impending doom, but he wanted to do something about the enemy. Because once he died, it was a total game over for their family. They shouldn't think about reigning the universe with this power level.

"You have lost." Jin Rou wanted to slap the emperor with the reality and said, "You have tried enough but you still lost. That's enough and just die. You will save us both the trouble."

"As if I will let you!" The emperor managed to stand up only to be stabbed by a force sword created by time and space.

"Stop this futile resistance." Jin Rou didn't want to waste any more time and said, "If ever you will be born again, I hope you will not be part of any prestigious family. Just die now and live peacefully in the afterlife."

Jin Rou was about to move his hands to end the emperor's life when a figure flashed from somewhere and blocked the emperor from his sight. Jin Rou knew who was hiding there but he didn't mind.

"So this is your decision, Prime Princess." Jin Rou looked at the woman who was having a horrified expression. Her limbs were also shaking as if it was turning jelly. That's right, it was the princess of the imperial family. Someone who got a little closer to Jin Rou.

"Isn't this enough already?" The princess mustered all her courage to say what she wanted to say, "We are already in this kind of state. My father is dying anytime now. My family's battle power has decreased significantly that we need to step down from this position and live in seclusion. You have already had your due revenge! This is more than enough!"

"No. Whether it is enough or not will be up to me." Jin Rou said coldly, "You are not part of my revenge, so this is your final chance. Run away as far as you can and never look back. Take your third brother too. Your family is doomed to die and fall here."

Jin Rou was clearly indicating that only the two of them would die. The rest of his family would suffer a fate worse than death. So, as the princess, how could she take that?

"Shale, go... Leave us here. If you and your brother can live, it's better. With your wits, I know that our Prime family can rise once again in the future. But if you and your brother die here too, then our family is good as dead and history." The emperor was trying to persuade his daughter. This was the best outcome possible. If his son and daughter could leave this place alive, then there wouldn't be more regrets for him even if he die now. He could feel that he only have several to few minutes left of life.

"Father, no..." The princess was brokenhearted when she was thinking of losing her family. How could she take it at such a young age? She didn't want to live. If there was something, she was willing to die with her father. That's better, than living empty in seclusion. She knew herself very well, and she knew she wouldn't be able to cope up with this trauma if ever she survived this. After all, the one who brought the trauma was also the one who she admired.

"Shale Prime listen to me!" The emperor got agitated and spat blood once again. But he managed to stabilized his breathing and said, "There is no need for you to die here if you want to prove that you are filial. If you want to prove something, then run and survive! I'm begging you, please just run with your brother. I..."

The emperor didn't finish his sentence as he suddenly stopped breathing and fell down lifeless. No one expected that he would lose his life just like that without any hints at all.

"Father?" The princess was terrified to her bones and tried to wake up her father. But she could feel that his body was turning cold and she couldn't also feel any qi at all. She shook her head like she didn't want to believe this and wanted to shout. But there's no voice coming out.

The emperor, who had reigned the entire universe and was deemed as the strongest existence out there, died here in his own courtyard. It wasn't a shameful death, his death was one of those you would be proud of if you were his offspring.

Jin Rou could feel however devastated the princess from losing another family member. There was slight sting in his heart, but it wasn't enough to make him feel guilty. He was just collecting debts with much interest.

"Are you happy now?" The princess' voice was filled with hatred as she grit her teeth, "Everything is flowing according to your plan. You have already pushed us to a corner. Are you happy now?"

"Not yet. I need to kill your elders first before I am satisfied." Jin Rou smiled.

The princess could feel chills running down her spine. She was terrified that her tears stopped from falling.
