271 Black Star Constellation (1/2)
”It's now over...” Seeing the lifeless silver mole beast that had fallen, the members of the grounds couldn't help but sigh in relief. That beast was very strong that they knew themselves that if they try to fight it, they would be killed no matter how many were they.
After all, that beast was almost on par with one of the strongest Ancients of this world. That's a being capable of slaying Ethereals.
But though they were relieved, Stronghold Ancient wasn't.
”Your Highness, do you think that everything will end here?” Stronghold Ancient asked Jin Rou.
”No, for sure, they will come knocking your door again. It seems that they have taken a liking to your dao lake here.” Jin Rou answered, ”Your dao lake is personally created and modified by your father who's now a celestial living in Rou Celestial Realm. With that modifications, of course, your dao lake would be richer and greater than any dao lakes of this world.”
”Indeed. Not to mention that, the location of the dao lake is kinda weird and tempting in the eyes of others.” Stronghold Ancient wryly smiled. What was his father thinking when he put this dao lake just below the entrance gate of their place?
”Oh right, Owner Bu and I have something to talk with. So let's hurry and talk about it now in your abode.” Jin Rou suddenly changed the topic and said.
It sounded urgent. Thus, Stronghold Ancient immediately agreed and said, ”Of course, Your Highness.”
After a bit of talk, everyone returned inside the grounds and resumed their trainings and meditations.

”You are planning to attack the Black Star Constellation?” Stronghold Ancient was taken aback when he heard Owner Bu's words. He couldn't help but widen his eyes and asked, ”Do you have an irreconcilable feud with anyone there?”
”Not just with anyone. I have an irreconcilable feud with all of the people of the Black Star. Thus, I want to attack them and regain myself.” Owner Bu's expression was serious and resolute. It seemed that there's nothing that would change his mind.
”I understand that you are serious. But be aware that Black Star Constellation has an alive Ethereal. Their Ethereal, their founder, is still alive.” Stronghold Ancient gravely said, ”Not to mention that, they also have an Ancient who is as strong as me. A being capable of slaying an Ethereal alone.”
Black Star Constellation was one of the three behemoth constellations that were standing at the apex of Starlight. They held the highest authority in dictating the future course of this world.
Being an apex constellation wasn't easy. After all, one of the requirements was an Ethereal should be alive and overseeing things with one or more Ancients in their arsenal.
To this day, the living Ethereals could only be counted in one's hands including the ones secluding themselves.
