Chapter 960 Estueva Exclahira
Seeing that Jin Rou wasn't moving, Abyss Scion thought that the other party was afraid and even dug the grave deeper, "Please fret not. If you think you cannot do it, it's always available to decline. However, your reputation will take a small hit, I think."
Since he couldn't hurt Jin Rou physically, he wanted to make him suffer extreme humiliation, instead. He would prove that this young noble was nothing but a fart compared to him.
The others also rained Jin Rou with disses and insults, "That's right, if you can't do it scram and cry in a hidden spot. You are polluting the air here!"
They were already blinded by too much jealousy towards Jin Rou that they couldn't think of the bigger picture. Since this place was for youths, the elders and ancestors were currently somewhere else.
"Who told you that I can't?" Jin Rou chuckled, "I'm just thinking that it's too boring to do this without anything in return."
Abyss Scion sneered and asked, "Do you want to have a bet, then?"
Jin Rou just gave the other party an opportunity to worsen the grave. But he wasn't worried and smiled, "Hmm, interesting. What will be the bet?"
Showing interest, Abyss Scion thought that this man was too stupid. If he wanted to seek humiliation that much, he, as the scion, would grant it, "Since you are interested, how about if you don't manage to understand the stone, you have to crawl to me like a dog abd bark like a dog. And oh, since dogs are naked usually, you have to too. How about it?"
"And what if I win?" Jin Rou was smiling differently. This smile meant that something bad would happen.
"You think you can win?" Abyss Scion spoke with disdain.
"It's not a bet if I don't have anything in return, no?" Jin Rou was still smiling, but his smile was turning colder and colder.
Fiarra noticed that and sighed in resignation. It looked like Abyss Scion was fated to humiliate himself here.
"Fine, then." Abyss Scion snorted, "If you win, I will crawl like a dog and bark like a dog towards you, naked. But for you to win, you have to understand the stone fully. That's enough?"
In truth, the scion felt good about how smart he was. He just made a grave and it became deeper and deeper. Now, with the other party's words, the grave became the worst.
He already had expectations of what would happen later on. Imagining Jin Rou barking and crawling like a dog buttnaked, he couldn't help but laugh evilly.
"Okay, you have a bet." Jin Rou looked at the mortal old man by the side of the stone, "You have heard the bet, right? I hope you can act as the middle man in case that idiot reneges later on."
The mortal old man smiled and nodded, "Visitor, rest assured. I will be overseeing the bet and the loser has no choice but to do it."
"I renege? You really think you can win?" When Abyss Scion heard it, he snorted and spoke lightly of Jin Rou, "You better be prepared crawling to me with no clothes, Young Noble."
"It is you who should be prepared." Jin Rou chuckled and went to the stone, "I want to see your expression after seeing what will happen here."
Many didn't like his tone and insulted him again. Since he got the favor of such a beauty, he already became the instant nemesis of all men here.
"You deserve humiliation for being too arrogant!"
"Prepare to crawl and bark like a dog! We are anticipating it!"
"You don't deserve the goddess attention. Scram and return to the cave, bumpkin!"
It was just a few of the disses and insults of the men here. But Fiarra ignored them. They would be crying in shame later on once they see the results.
Jin Rou touched the stone and closed his eyes. In actuality, he didn't need to do this as he already understood the symbols the first time he saw this.
After all, it was Han Li who brought the Soar Stone here. Even if he wasn't, with Han Li's universal understanding of the dao, this was a piece of cake.
"Estueva Exclahira." Jin Rou murmured these words and the symbols engraved on the shone brightly. The stone had never reacted this way in the past, not even the successful people who had read it.
Then, Jin Rou's consciousness suddenly transported to another location. It was very familiar as Han Li used to stay in this place.
Soon, a shadow figured appeared in front of Jin Rou and knelt down, "Estueva greets Your Majesty Han Li."
"Rise." Jin Rou nodded and said, "Even after a long time, you managed to survive in this separated space, Estueva."
Estueva Exclahira. Perhaps no one present would ever recognize this name but a very few old beings probably would. It was one of the terrifying generals of Han Li during the longtime war. Estueva commanded legions which swept realms after realms.
But it was all a thing of the past. He was no longer the mighty general who could swing the blade and decapitate billions of heads in a swing. He was now but a shadow of his past self, trapped in this space.
"Your Majesty, I'm glad that you're also alive. I have been trapped here but some news still reach my space." Estueva was literally a shadow, but Jin Rou could hear the genuine happiness he had.historical
"The previous challenge was bitter." Jin Rou sighed as he remembered how the eighth challenge went, "I'm, again, the sole survivor."
Many followed Han Li, but many had also died for him. Although they were willing to give up their lives for the sake of Han Li's goal, the relatives of those who died felt bitter and felt their deaths were undeserving.
The war against that old man was always bitter, but the previous was the most bitter that it made Han Li cry before he passed away. He had many regrets during his last moments, and it was vivid to Jin Rou's memory.
