Chapter 505: Redboa Ancient Emperor (2/2)
Asner took a deep breath and gathered his courage. He knew that he had to do this one way or another. He walked over without hesitating and grabbed the scroll immediately. He was about to walk away when he stumbled because of a terrifying earthquake.
”Who is insolent enough to touch this Majesty's treasures?!” It was an angered voice. It came from the stone statue, which was now becoming alive.
Jin Rou expected this and grabbed Asner by the hood, giving themselves the safe distance from the snake. It was a huge red snake, to be exact.
Asner knew he had to do something and said, ”Your Majesty, I am Asner Xero of the Elf Kingdom's Xero Clan. His Majesty's Glorified Ancient Emperor has asked me to get this scroll from you, so I have no choice but to do this.”
”Glorified?” The snake was shaken a bit and said, ”Is he still alive?”
”No, Your Majesty.” Asner shook his head, ”It was nothing but his will who have asked me that. But it seems that this scroll is gret of importance to him, so I have to do this.”
The snake's eyes flashed a split second of disappointment before retrieving it, ”Hmph, it was that bastard's scroll anyway, so if his descendant want to retrieve it, then I have nothing to say. I, Redboa Ancient Emperor, say this.”
Anser gulped and realized the true identity of this emperor. Redboa! Just like Glorified Ancient Emperor, Redboa was also part of this brilliant emperors of their era. In fact, records said that Redboa and Glorified had a deep friendship and judging by the situation, it seemed it was true.
”Thank you, Your Majesty.” Asner bowed with respect.
”Alright, you can have the scroll, but I won't permit you to have this treasure too. So shoo away before I throw you out.” Redboa Ancient Emperor said. Although his heart was a bit bleeding by losing the most important item, it was his friend's descendant so he had nothing to complain about.
”Hello.” Just as Redboa were to repeat his words again, Jin Rou finally spoke, ”Can I have that book? That with a title of Records of Thousand Cultivators.”
”Hmm?” Redboa glanced at this young man and examined him. The snake didn't find anything amazing about him, but he could sense and overwhelming power that was trying to get out of his body. It was the first time he had seen someone of this caliber and asked, ”A Heavenly?”
It was the most reasonable explanation. However, Jin Rou was so young to reach that level. How was that possible? Nevertheless, the book wasn't that much of a value so Redboa agreed, ”Very well. You can take that.”
Jin Rou walked over and grabbed the book, bowed a little and said, ”Thank you.”
He was asking for a favor, naturally he would respect it if the other party agreed.
”Now, go away. I'm going to sleep.” Redboa shoo the two men once again. It was like he wasn't willing to see them any longer.
