260 Gratitude (1/2)

After a few hours, Owner Bu had finally stabilized his power. He felt refreshed as his lost vigor and youthfulness came back. His life was extended greatly so this was not a surprise. He could feel that if nothing happens, he could live for at least another million of years in seclusion.

This was a heaven-defying gain that anyone would be envy of. Just imagine, a high leap from Immortal Emperor to Heavenly Saint? Take note, he just skipped two whole cultivation realms!

”Congratulations, Owner Bu, for your success.” Jin Rou said with a smile. Although he helped Owner Bu in an indirect way, the credit still lied upon Owner Bu himself. If not for his perseverance and spirit, Jin Rou might not bother saving him in the least.

”This was all thanks to you, Youngmaster Jin.” Owner Bu immediately knelt down to show his gratitude, ”If not for you, I will never have the chance to step into this world once again.”

These were Owner Bu's heartfelt words. Truly, if he didn't meet Jin Rou way back in Grivexia, wouldn't he just rot there and die? As he was a peak existence there, who would want to provoke him there?

But now, he had another chance to change something. He was given the power to do it. Whatever may be the result of the upcoming battle, he had nothing to regret anymore.

As he already did what he must.

Of course, success was more preferred. After all, failure meant death to him.

”Owner Bu, no. Please get up.” Jin Rou had experienced this numerous times already but he was still not used to it. If he was in his palace, he would accept this gesture but he wasn't. So he urged the old man to get up, ”This is all because of your hard work. The credits were yours to begin with.”

”Youngmaster Jin, please don't kid around.” Owner Bu smiled wryly, ”How could a mere Immortal Emperor like me could do something significant on my own?”

Owner Bu couldn't help but laugh when thinking about this notion.

”You already did. In the past.” Jin Rou chuckled, ”You paved your way with blood even here in Starlight. You killed numerous true monarchs and even divines and grand ones. You used your wits to outsmart your opponents. You survived this world for so long before giving up. So, tell me, isn't it a significant deed on your part? If it were some emperors, they would be killed instantly there.”

”…” Owner Bu was shocked hearing this. How could Jin Rou knew something like that? He didn't tell a tale about this to others! There's only one possibility, and that's Jin Rou had already seen through his past.

What kind of power did it need to be capable of peeking in someone's past?

Terrifying. Absolutely terrifying.

Owner Bu couldn't fathom enough just how strong Jin Rou was.

While he was deep in his thought, suddenly...

”Bang! Bang!” Two figures had suddenly descended from the sky.

—

The two figures were men. One was a bald man and the other one had a mohawk hairstyle with a black hair. They were white robes that were fluttering in the air as they released a bone-chilling killing intent.

For sure, these guys weren't here for a talk.
