The Adventures Of The Young Master

It was an outrageous bluff that wasn't believable no matter what the point was. Just imagine, someone unknown was claiming that he could save them from the Calamity Scheme? Even their oldest ancestors wouldn't dare to say this!

"Just because they can't doesn't mean no one else could." Jin Rou said, "There's always a higher sky above a sky. The world has full of infinite possibilities."

The knight sneered and said, "Only if you are better than our Emperors.

"I am better than them, of course." Jin Rou smirked, "Not to mention them, I am the best out of the rest."

This never-ending confidence of his made Sylvianna roll her eyes. She was getting used to it by now.

"Bluff." The knight coldly said, "Just kill me. It's doesn't matter, anyway."

"Yes, but I doubt that lady with you will?" Jin Rou said as he looked at a hiding spot somewhere.

The knight was stumped as he heard this, but he immediately retracted it and calmed his emotions, "I don't know what you're talking about."

"Then, I guess anything I do with her won't matter?" Jin Rou was smiling as he slowly walked towards the hiding spot.

The knight bit his lip, but he didn't speak again. His eyes were shaking as he struggled internally.

Just when Jin Rou was about to reach the spot, the knight finally gave up and said, "Please, don't hurt her. She's with me, so please."

His voice was pleading, different from the cold voice he had a while ago. There was also a bit of tears by the side of his eyes. The person in that place must be very important to him.

Jin Rou stopped and said, "See, it's not difficult to speak the truth. Since you are now honest, you don't mind being honest down the road, right?"

"What do you want? If you want to know something, you can just enter the place without hindrance since you claim to be the best." The knight spoke, his words weren't sarcastic, "Or you can just intervene with my memories. It will be a lot easier for you."

"True, but it's not fun if I do that." Jin Rou responded, "But firstly, you receive us as guests in your Imperial Throne and let me meet your ancestors."

"That's not possible." The knight shook his head, "I am just a mere knight, I don't have that kind of status there."

"That might be true if you will use your status as a knight." Jin Rou said, "How about you use your status as the Crown Prince of Imperial Throne?"

The Crown Prince was the most hopeful person to become the next Emperor. It was the highest rank excluding the Emperor. With their rank, they were fully supported by the powerhouse and provided with more than enough resources to successfully ascend.

The knight's body trembled as he looked at Jin Rou as if he had seen a ghost. How was that possible that the other party saw him through? That's not virtually possible in all sense!

"It's obvious with your eminence, idiot." Jin Rou chuckled, "Anyone, as long as their levels are enough, can also distinguish your rank."

It was true. The knight was giving out a cold-type eminence, which you could only find on Crown Princes.

Left with no choice, the Crown Prince took a deep breath and nodded, "Okay. I'll take you all with me."

The Crown Prince was leading the group to the entrance of the Imperial Throne up to the main palace. No one had stopped or blocked them since the Crown Prince himself was personally receiving the guests despite being suspicious.

Many were puzzled as to why outsiders were being welcomed, but they didn't dare to blurt it out, afraid that they might anger the prince.

Anderson was in shock all this while. He never had imagined to actually step foot in a place of this level! Remember, Imperial Throne was very strong with three Emperors under their banner. No one would dare to antagonize them except those who could contend against them.

Amazing. It was the single word he could utter. The land of Imperial Throne was filled with nutrients and the energy here was thicker compared to the outside. Their buildings had an ancient-style architecture with dragons above their roofs.

"I cannot guarantee audience despite being a Crown Prince, mind you." Crown Prince Shen spoke. His words contained truths in it, "Even I have to spend a long time before talking to the ancestors."

The Imperial Throne ancestors didn't like to be disturbed most of the time. They were always in a seclusion to find ways of surviving the Calamity Scheme. Their time should be spent on more important and pressing matter such as this. Thus, they didn't usually grant permission for an audience.

"They need to be smart lest they didn't want to live anymore." Jin Rou said. He was very aloof as if the Calamity Scheme was such a trivial matter.

After walking for more hours, they finally reached a place with a huge metal door. Twin dragons were painted on it with a dragon head as the knob.

"Ancestors, I want to have an audience with you even for a bit moment." Crown Prince Shen said, "I have guests who claim that they have a solution to the Calamity Scheme we are about to face."

"Leave. We don't trust outsiders, Shen." An old voice suddenly reverberated. It was obvious that the ancestors didn't buy what the prince said. In fact, no one probably would.

Who was in their right mind to actually speak as if solving a Calamity Scheme was easy as counting chickens?

Jin Rou was smiling but didn't speak. He was waiting for the right chance to intervene.

"Please, Ancestors. Give them a chance. I have personally gauged their strengths and they are very capable." Crown Prince Shen urged.

"Leave, Shen. Leave." The old voice repeated. It contained animosity now.

"I didn't expect that these old fellows are stupid." Jin Rou Finnishally spoke and clicked his tongue, "Let's see, will you open the door for me or should I do it myself by destroying it? Choose one."
