The Adventures Of The Young Master-Chapter 923 A Figure
"Have you ever get tired of challenging that old man?" After a long time of silence, the figure asked. It had been a while since he got someone to talk to.
Of all the people who challenged that existence, only Han Li remained standing and kept challenging it. No one was ever consistent as him. It felt like it's already his obsession of trying take that old man down.
"I will never get tired." Jin Rou said. It's not like he wanted to do this in the first place. However, the God Dao Source he was looking for was in that old man's place. So he needed to slay that old man before getting it.
His choice was nothing but to move forward. He had to. For the sake of himself and those in his universe.
"That old man is getting stronger." The figure said, "I can feel it. It seems he's getting ready for your challenge."
"That damned old man will, of course." Jin Rou smirked, "After all, he couldn't afford to be careless now after suffering a severe injury from me during the eighth challenge."
"His pride as the invincible existence was damaged." The figure knew that old man very well. In fact, it could be said that they were old friends of the past, a past that couldn't be traced again.
"Should be." Jin Rou chuckled, "He must fuming in rage now that I plan to challenge him again."
"And this will be your last time challenging it." The figure said. It wasn't a question, it was a direct statement.
"Yes," Jin Rou confirmed it, "Unlike the other challenges, this will be an all in all out for me. So that old man better be prepared."
Han Li during the past challenges had always formulated a escape plan in case things went awry. The challenges were like a trial and error for him, thus he always had a route to run away. After all, he knew that the difference in their power level was too big and he needed more time, information, and resources.
But not now. Jin Rou, as Han Li, would go all out in this generation. He only had one chance and he wouldn't waste it.
"It looks like we will finally see a grand finale of this long war of yours against him." The figure sighed, "It's been a long run."
"Everything has an end. It just varies when." Jin Rou said, "You've changed. You are always hot-headed in the past despite your age, but now you've grown calm. It seems being stuck here in Coinlost gave you an improvement in character."
This figure used to be a terrifying monster that could make the world tremble. Even the overlord paragons had to think twice before crossing paths with this figure.
"Time changes everything, Han Li." The figure took a deep breath, "Even you cannot avoid the changing themes of time."
"That's probably true." Jin Rou answered with a wry smile. Even Han Li was tired of this long charade. There were times he just wanted to live in peace with his loved ones and die in peace. Unfortunately, his path was arduous, not letting him do whatever he wanted.
"What do you want to know?" The figure asked. He knew that the other party wouldn't leave unless he got the answer. All he could do was to see if that's something answerable or not.
"That man who paints, is he still alive?" Jin Rou asked. It was a crucial information for him. After all, he wouldn't spend so much money if there weren't something to gain here.
The figure didn't expect this question but eventually answered, "That I don't know. According to what I know, he disappeared for countless of years now. But, if you want to find him, you can probably ask that insect. If my calculations are right, it will come looking for you."
Jin Rou laughed and nodded, "Indeed. It's growing impatient. With me here and the item it needs is on me, it will not stay idle anymore. It's an all in and all out for him too." 𝗳𝗿𝐞ℯ𝙬𝗲𝗯n𝗼νel.𝒄𝑜𝘮
Jin Rou needed that man. Thus, he needed to gain clues to where he could find him. If he's no longer alive, he needed to see the corpse or coffin.
"Do you have more questions?" The figure said, "I feel like this will be the last time we will see each other, so you better ask away while I'm still nice."
"Hmm, this pops out of my mind. And you can refuse if you don't want to." Jin Rou said, "How about you help me slay that old man? Even in your weakened state, it will be of great help against him." f𝓇𝘦ℯ𝙬𝑒𝐛n𝐨νe𝙡.c𝑜𝗺
"And what's in it for me?" The figure asked. There was no free lunch in this world. If you want something, pay for it.
"Your freedom in this damned Coinlost." Jin Rou said, "I can take you out of here. Though the places you can be are very limited, that's better than staying here in loneliness."
"You're aware that it will take more tremendous amount than when you want to scan my memories, right?" The figure said. He was a bit floored by Jin Rou.
Remember, he was stuck here in Coinlost. Even him, a very strong existence that could rival that old man, was helpless against the dao laws of this lost realm. To actually severe his chains here needed a hefty amount of resources. And as of now, not even the powerhouses of the central could spend that much.
"Of course. Taking you out here will be needing a frightening amount of resources. Hmm, calculating it, a whole galaxy vault of mine must be needed to take you out with me. But it's all worth it, if I can receive your help." Jin Rou said.
His galaxy vaults contained trillions of treasures and resources. Each of them held great importance to Han Li. But he was willing to exhaust one of the three to help the figure. It showed how much he thought of the figure's help.
