263 Woodrain Ancien (2/2)

This was something that he would do everything to save them.

Even at the cost of his life.

”This Youngmaster here...” After scolding the trio, Woodrain Ancient walked over to Jin Rou and said, ”I am called Woodrain Ancient, please spare my students for offending you. In return, I will compensate you in any possible way I can.”

The eyes watching them were stumped. An Ancient was seemed to be begging someone from the younger generation? This was something inconceivable!

Woodrain Ancient was an apex existence. What did the young man warrant to have this kind of attitude from an Ancient?

”Since you have came here personally, of course, I wouldn't pursue this matter any longer. I shall give Woodrain Ancient face.” Jin Rou casually said. It seemed like he was talking with a friend.

The trio couldn't help but raise their heads in surprise. This young man was actually talking so casually in front of an Ancient!

” Then, you have my gratitude, Youngmaster... ” Woodrain Ancient said.

”Jin, call me Youngmaster Jin.” Jin Rou answered.

”Then, Youngmaster Jin, how about you visit us in our humble place? Though I don't know if it would be up for your liking.” Woodrain Ancient offered with a beaming smile.

The trio were once again shaken. Their master was smiling towards an unknown man? They were feeling bitterness in their hearts.

”Sure. Lead the way.” Jin Rou answered and sent a telepathic message towards Owner Bu.

Owner Bu nodded after hearing this.

Along they way, the three knights were keeping on sending telepathic messages towards their master as they were utterly confused by this.

After a few minutes of forcing their master, Woodrain Ancient finally gave in and said, ”I don't know the specifics but this is something that Stronghold Ancient said to me.”

Stronghold Ancient was the strongest Ancient of the Imperial Grounds. He was very famous for battling an Ethereal alone and survived.

And right now, he was in a seclusion as he was about to reach a breakthrough in his dao. For hundreds of thousands of years, no one had seen him now.

”What did Stronghold Ancient said?” The trio was curious and asked.

”If you can't befriend that man, then don't offend him or else it might be the ending of our Imperial Grounds. That is what he said.” Woodrain Ancient said.

”Impossible! That's impossible!” The trio instantly denied this notion.

”It is not. Even I, an Ancient, feel like I have no chance of winning against him at all. It was already a merciful deed for sparing you idiotic birds back there.” Woodrain Ancient said.

As he already experienced millions of battles, his instincts was fortified to its maximum degree. And when he faced with Jin Rou, his instinct was keeping on giving him warning signals as if it met a dangerous predator.

Just how many people could threaten him here in True? Even Ethereals didn't give him such warning signals as if it was desperate to convince him to run away.

But just after a few minutes, they already arrived in Imperial Grounds.
