144 Jyu Ming, Lai Ming (1/2)
In a desolate wasteland, where piles of bones could be seen, withered trees turning gray and frail, the void suddenly trembled violently. This was a no-man place, even ferocious beasts would not dare to linger here. Why would the surroundings shake all of a sudden?
In the middle of this hopeless wasteland, a crack in the void appeared. This crack had intense lightning fluctuations that would make anyone shiver.
Soon, two figures appeared from the void. They were wearing shining black robes that would stand out wherever they went.
A middle-aged man and a youth duo had appeared. The middle-aged man had long red single-ponytailed hair, which gave off an eerie feeling. He possessed a well-built body that could be seen even he was wearing a long robe. The other one was a youth, probably in his twenties, standing side by side with the middle-aged man. He also had long red hair, however, not ponytailed. He was so handsome that even the withered trees around blushed.
These two had a countenance of a true expert, with an immortal essence qi lingering around them.
”What the hell... this kind of trash world?!” The youth contemptuously said, ”The essence qi is so scarce that you could not feel it at all!”
”Youngmaster Jyu, that's, of course, to be expected.” Lai Ming, the middle-aged man, smiled faintly, ”This is still a mortal world. It would be strange if this place has a dense essence qi.”
”Hmph. So this was the world that damn traitor created in exchange for her cultivation? What a waste. Truly, a stupid member of our clan.” Jyu Ming said in disdain, ”If not for this is a very important mission given by our clan, I would not step in this trash world at all.”
”Haha, Youngmaster Jyu, you don't need to be so upset.” Lai Ming laughed, ”After all if we succeed, your place in the clan will rise by leaps and bounds. Perhaps, you can be the next successor of the Ancient Ming Clan.”
”That's too good to be true.” Obviously, Jyu Ming knew his place in the clan and shook his head, ”The talent of the son of the clan master is frightening, you know that. He is yet to be 30-years-old, yet he already reached the Immortal Realm. The disparity between us is unimaginable.”
”Well, that may be the case.” Lai Ming agreed and sighed, ”But you are also not bad, Youngmaster Jyu. You already reached the Overlord Realm, fourth stage, at such a very young age. That's something you also need to be proud of.”
”Let's not talk about that anymore. Let's just focus on the mission given to us.” Jyu Ming said and asked, ”That Farna, do you think that item is still in her possession? What's more, is she still alive after all these years? It's already a long time.”
”The Third Ming Ancestor would not dare to burn his vitality to open the dimensional gate connecting to this world if there is no certainty and I believe you are aware of that. So of course, the thing is precisely still in Farna's possession. That thing, we need it, to for prolong the life of the First Ming Ancestor.” Lai Ming explained seriously.
Jyu Ming pondered for a moment before saying, ”That thing is that magical that it can extend our First Ming Ancestor's life, given the fact that it is used for creating a world... I wonder how could that old hag had it in the past.”
”This... I don't know since even I was not yet born to this world, Farna is already an unrivaled expert that dared to be against our Ancient Ming Clan.” Lai Ming frowned, ”In fact, according to Third Ming Ancestor, Farna could rival our First Ming Ancestor.”
Jyu Ming was stumped as he asked, ”If that's the case, aren't we just seeking death ourselves?!”
