Chapter 158 - The Conclusion
"Lai Ming...!" Jyu Ming, who was aware of everything that happened, crazily howled in disbelief. How could Lai Ming be defeated just like that? Take note, Lai Ming, even in the Ancient Ming Clan, ranked among the best. Although he could not be considered a core member, he did, after all, a great contribution to the whole Ancient Ming Clan.
And now, that he was dead, how could he say to the elders? No, how could he survive this calamity?
His expression was filled with grief and disbelief. He refused to believe that his senior was killed just like that.
"You there." A voice suddenly called out to him. Lai Ming traced where the voice came from and found out that it was from the killer of his senior. His expression suddenly turned vicious, as if he was ready to eat the other party. However, he knew that he was not a match so he did not dare to take the offense. Unless he had not a choice, he would not definitely do it.
Of course, Jin Rou noticed this vicious glare of Jyu Ming. However, he did not mind and continued, "You are from the Ancient Ming Clan, right? Go back and tell your clan that the thing they want is in my possession, and I will personally come to Grivexia. If they really want to, they could give it a try."
Hearing the voice filled with the confidence of Jin Rou, Jyu Ming was puzzled. Although he did not know what cultivation Jin Rou had, he assumed that it was probably still in the Immortal Realm. Their clan had a number of Immortal Realm experts, so they were not at least afraid even with the powers and factions of Grivexia. Where di his confidence come from?
And he will personally come into Grivexia? Does he really think that it was that easy?— Jyu Ming thought.
"What are you waiting for? Scram now before I change my mind, ant." Jin Rou coldly and impatiently said. He was giving him a chance to live longer, as well as the Ancient Ming Clan. Of course, for the matter that he was personally going to Grivexia, it's true.
"You..." Jyu Ming wanted to beat this man in front of him. He, Jyu Ming, being called an ant? Even his clansmen did not dare to say it to him upfront! He took a deep breath and said, "Fine since you are so confident with your capabilities, I will return and report this to the elders. I hope you don't regret what you did."
"I will not regret what I did. Instead, I should be saying that to you and your old folks in your clan. Keep in mind that not all existences in the universe could your clan afford to offend." Jin Rou faintly smiled.
"..." Jyu Ming was agitated by this. However, he toned down his surging hatred towards this man. He promised that this man will experience a fate worse than death for killing Lai Ming! Finally, he moved his hand and a black talisman appeared with unknown runes inscribed in it. Soon, a black gate appeared in his front. He gave Jin Rou a final glance and said, "You'll eternally regret it that you opposed us, Ancient Ming Clan!" After saying that, he entered the gate and disappeared.
Jin Rou shook his head. Looks like this clan was one of the idiots who could not swallow anger. Whatever, what would they do would be their karma.
Jin Rou looked at the brick in his grasp and smiled, "Who would think that a brick that I picked up in the LD sect would be something powerful like this?"
That's right, that brick was just picked up somewhere in the LD sect. He just modified it. He was feeling proud of his creation at this moment. After all, it was unheard of a brick being a weapon even in the higher worlds.
The spectators in a distance from the battlefield started to leave with satisfaction in their hearts. Those battles were so amazing that they even forgot to breathe! It was an honor for them to witness such unbelievable beings in this world and thus aimed to spread the news. Of course, there would be people exaggerating everything, modifying the truth and all.
After the spectators scattered, those disciples who participated also had left. Fortunately, they were all safe as the Royal Castle transferred everyone in the castle along with their elders accompanying them.
As for Mei Xiao and the others, they were completely safe since Yuna Sierra was along with them. They were currently in the sky, watching the things happening below.
"Big Brother Jin is so powerful! Little Mei wanted to become someone like him too!" Mei Xiao, with glittering and sparkling eyes, said in admiration with her two tiny clenched fists on her chest.
Yuna Sierra and the others just smiled from this. If she worked harder than everyone else, maybe that was slightly possible. However, Yuna Sierra knew that it was pretty impossible unless she was from the Rou Celestial Family. But of course, she could not afford to shatter the hope of this little girl. This could be a motivation for her to work harder in the future. She also knew why would this little girl wanted to be stronger than Jin Rou. Well, if Little Mei reached the True God Realm, then, it was possible.
"Looks like everyone is here. Did you all lock the door in our sect?" Suddenly, a figure appeared in front of them which startled everyone.
"Sectmaster!" Everyone called out in unison.
Little Mei ran and hugged Jin Rou merrily and said, "Big Brother Jin, we won the Sect Wars!"
"Mm-mm." Jin Rou smiled warmly and patted her little head, "I know, you did great." He was surveying everything that happened inside the forest domain without them knowing. He saw everything even though he was not present at all since he was inside the castle talking with Progenitor Gong.
After patting her for a while, Jin Rou looked at everyone and said, "You all should go back to the sect first. I still have something to do here."
Everyone nodded in unison. After which, Yuna released a gate and entered it and Yuan Gu, Yalan Na, Old Mo, and the three disciples followed suit.
Seeing that they were gone, Jin Rou descended from the sky,
"Your Majesty!" Progenitor Gong immediately knelt upon seeing the figure of Jin Rou currently descending. His master had already told him via telepathy the shocking and nerve breaking identity of this young man. Various positive emotions were welling up inside his old heart. Of course, there was also fear inside his heart. Fear that he would offend this being.
Zao Dong was shocked, "Progenitor... why would—"
"Shut your mouth and each of you kneel down or else scram from my castle!" Progenitor Gong shouted.
Thump Thump!
Zao Dong, Byukaria and the Royal Knights immediately kneeled. Although they don't know what's going on, since their progenitor tells them to, they hurriedly kneeled, brushing off all hesitations.
"Rise, all of you. We are in the broad daylight. You don't need to kneel." Jin Rou knew that Farna must have told him his identity already. So this progenitor was acting like this.
Zao Dong heaved a sigh and was about to rise when Progenitor Gong viciously glared at him like he was an unfilial son. His heart trembled violently and remained in the kneeling posture.
"We don't dare, Your Majesty, We are just but lowly servants. If I just knew and realized your existence, we would have prepared the grandest banquet of welcoming you here in our humble world. I am hoping for Your Majesty to forgive me or my descendants if ever they offended you in some way." Progenitor Gong said. Although he already asked for an apology back in the courtyard of his, he felt that it was not enough for someone this type of existence!
Don't you ever dare to offend His Majesty Jin Rou. He is the current Celestial King from the Rou Celestial Family, and I know you know what type of being he is. So watch your actions and your people's actions to prevent offending him! If you ever do, forget about me about being your master! — These were the exact words of her master, Farna. As he was extremely devoted to his master, he immediately believed what she said! In fact, if Farna told him that his castle was a piece of shit, he would believe it as well!
A blind worship... it is.
"Progenitor Gong, let's go." Jin Rou helplessly sighed and said.
Progenitor Gong, of course, knew where Jin Rou wanted to go. He told Zao Dong to prepare the grandest banquet and immediately led the way.

"Your Majesty..." Farna kneeled with utter respect and admiration. Although she was calm outside, her heart was in a turbulent, having violent beats.
Progenitor Gong also knelt down in front of Jin Rou without saying anything.
"I am here to ask Immortal Farna a favor." Jin Rou immediately directed the topic.
Farna's heart almost jumped in fright, but immediately said, "Your Majesty, Farna Ming, this lowly one, does not deserve to be called an Immortal. And about your request, please just say the words and if I need to jump into a sea of fire, I will do it without hesitation."
Almost every being of this universe wanted to do service for the Celestial King since it was such an honor and something to be proud of. As such, how could she decline? This was a chance for her!
"No need to do that." Jin Rou awkwardly smiled, "As you know, I will be leaving this world for a period of time. And I need people who would help my sect to build a reputation which my disciples could be proud of. I want you to help my sect in all various and possible ways."
"This is not a problem at all, Your Majesty. Farna Ming, this lowly servant, promise that I will do it as you like." Farna said with a determined expression.
"Thank you. Don't worry about the compass, I will return it to that place in Grivexia." Jin Rou smiled and assured.
"Thank you, Your Majesty... this lowly one is greatly indebted to you." Farna heartfully said.
She opened her mouth again but there was no voice. She was filled with hesitation as of this moment.
"Father is okay. He is currently in the celestial realm." Jin Rou guessed that this woman wanted to ask about his father, so initiated.
Farna smiled wryly deep inside her heart — Yeah, he's okay, then that's good.
"I will be leaving now. Farewell." Jin Rou said as he disappeared in front of them.
The two kneeling figure entered daze for a moment. before snapping out of it.
"Ahh... His Majesty just disappeared just like that. I even prepared a banquet for His Majesty..." Progenitor Gong smiled dejectedly.
"Little Gong, we could not waste His Majesty's time." Farna smiled to him and said, "Go and tell your people to make arrangements for His Majesty's sect. Send many emperor armaments and things that would be useful to them. As for the prize of them winning, send an immortal plant from here!"
"As you wish, Master!" Progenitor Gong immediately said. Although it stung his heart a bit regarding the immortal plant, he, nonetheless, agreed. After all, compared to favor and assistance from that being, this plant was just trash.

The Lovey Dovey Sect was so lively for the past three days and three nights as they held a banquet that sponsored by the Royal Castle themselves. Many sects from first-rate to third-rate sects was invited except for the Soaring Phoenix. In fact, with the exception of them, all the sectmasters of various sects attended and gave the LD sectmaster a face. After all, this was a sect that the Royal Castle declared as a Sworn Ally!
Besides, some of the people here personally witnessed the battle, especially the last one that annihilated the entire dome and a radius beyond! They wanted to know what type of person the sectmaster of LD sect was.
Each sect prepared extravagant gifts as a congratulatory, but everyone knew that it was just one forging a friendly relationship. After all, if they had the backing of LD sect, then they would also have a portion of the backing of the Royal Castle! It was, indeed, a wise move. Of course, the LD sect did not mind at all.
---
"You're going to Grivexia, Youngmaster?" Yuna Sierra was surprised. Although she heard it when Jin Rou said it to Jyu Ming, she still felt surprised.
Inside the meeting room, all of the members of LD sect were present. All of them had surprised expressions.
"Yes, and I want to come to that world alone. I have something to do there and after that, I would return here. Don't worry." Jin Rou explained the things.
All of them had anxiety swelling up in their faces. They wanted to say that they wanted to go with him, however, he already said that he wanted to go alone. Even Yuna Sierra was helpless and could only frown.
They sighed in their hearts, knowing that they would just be hindrances for Jin Rou when they went with him. As for Yuna Sierra, she knew she needed to act as the temporary sectmaster and protect the sect against people with malice intentions.
"No need to show me that faces." Jin Rou smiled, "I want you all to be stronger enough to be qualified to ascend to the higher worlds. So train hard and I am expecting that all of you would be way stronger when I came back."
"Big Brother Jin, will you come back?" Mei Xiao suddenly hugged him as tears were welling up to her little eyes.
"Of course, Big Brother will come back and bring all of you to the higher worlds." Jin Rou caressed her head and answered with a gentle smile, looking at everyone, "As long as you all reached Immortal Realm when I came back, I will bring all of you with me and ascend to the higher worlds. How about that?"
"Is it possible to reach the Immortal Realm here?" Old Mo asked.
"Of course. The Royal Castle had a place where there was a dense amount of Qi. I will create a door connecting to that place. About the permission, they said as long they are a member of LD sect, they welcome them." Jin Rou said. He was talking about the Immortal Green Garden, which also the compass created. historical
After a series of comforting words from Jin Rou, everyone finally agreed with reluctance. He also gave them a mission to be completed and a corresponding reward personally coming from him would be rewarded.
At the dawn of the second day, Jin Rou left the Farna's Mortal World.

In the Royal Castle, there were two figures sitting opposite to each other. One was Zao Dong and the other one was a beautiful maiden. She was Miyu Dong, the Royal Princess. She just came back from seclusion, thus, she was not present when things happened.
When Jin Rou defeated her, she promised that she would train harder and harder until she defeated Jin Rou. However, as for now, although she breakthrough to the seventh stage of Emperor Realm, she was sure still not a match against him.
"Father, I want to join the LD sect." Miyu Dong said as there was a tinge of redness in her maiden face. As for why she wanted to join the LD sect, only she knew.
"Sure." Zao Dong did not even think about it and immediately agreed. Progenitor Gong already told him about the identity of Jin Rou. However, as he was ignorant about things, he did not understand it except he knew that Jin Rou was someone his castle could not afford to provoke. In fact, his progenitor told him that in case he offended the LD sect, he should just commit suicide in front of them to atone for his sin.
"Thank you." Although Miyu Dong was a bit surprised why would his father immediately agreed, she did not mind it.
"The recruitment will be on the second day starting from now. I could not help you to enter the sect using the backdoor. So you need to rely on your own." Zao Dong explained.
"I don't need that. I can enter the sect without it." Miyu Dong stood up and left.
Zao Dong wanted to say something but seeing that his daughter was already walking away, he did not bother about it.
He just casually smiled and muttered under his breath, "Ahh... My daughter is now a lady..."
