262 Golden Knights (1/2)
The three knights' expressions turned serious. The one they were waiting for had successfully ascended.
There were two men in their sight. One was an old man with a haggard look and a young man with an above-average looks. Although the young man couldn't be called handsome, there was an attraction that made these knights reevaluate him over and over.
”Oh? Some people are here to welcome us? How nice.” Suddenly, a leisure voice filled with playfulness, ”Aren't you guys too caring?”
Of course, this was Jin Rou.
The knights' faces turned dark. They felt like Jin Rou was mocking him. Well, indeed, Jin Rou was mocking them.
”Who are you and from what constellation are you?” Eagle asked with a cold tone. They were given a mission here, so they would do it immediately.
”And why should I give you information?” Jin Rou smiled. He was like trying to provoke the three knights.
”It seems like we need to introduce ourselves first, then.” Eagle said, ”We three are called Imperial Ground's Golden Knights.”
Imperial Grounds was one of the behemoth constellations that stood shoulder to shoulder with the other 3 strongest constellations of True.
However, this constellation was unique, as the members of it were all imperial cultivators! As the name of the constellation implied, they only accept cultivators taking the imperial path. So, one could already deduce that they were only consisted of Grand Monarchs, Imperial Sovereigns, Fate Emperors and the strongest and apex existence of this world, Ancients.
Ironically, while the constellation was only made of imperial cultivators, the one who founded it was, of course, an Ethereal, a godhood cultivator. After all, only Ethereals had the capability to create a constellation.
As of this day, no one knew who was the Ethereal that created the dao of the grounds.
And for the record, the Imperial Grounds has two alive Ancients holding their fort.
”Oh, some Fate Emperors of Imperial Grounds.” Jin Rou had read a book about this constellation and in fact, he was familiar with someone coming from this place. Thus hearing this, he no longer used his mocking tone and asked, ”What brings the three Fate Emperors here?”
”We have came here to know your identity.” Nightingale said, ”You have forcefully tore the universal laws and opened a premature gate. This is an imbalance to the nature. So we are here to see if you are a threat to us.”
”I see.” Jin Rou nodded.
Indeed, with how powerful the beings of this place were, sure they would feel threatened if someone was capable of this feat. After all, even Ancients and Ethereals couldn't do this.
Just how much massive seals would it take to forcefully open a premature gate?
Immense. Terrifyingly immense. And they don't have the abilities to do this.
”I have some ties with your Imperial Grounds, so I don't bear any ill will against anyone or anything. Well, except for one.” Jin Rou said, he was talking about the Devils here.
