The Adventures Of The Young Master-Chapter 898 Restless Mountain
"Let's go." Jin Rou looked at a distance and said, "This place is too small for you. Come with me." 𝙛𝘳𝒆𝒆𝒘e𝗯n𝗼𝘷𝚎𝚕.𝒄૦𝓶
Since Meishei was already under a deal with him, he naturally had to take him and protect him at all costs. He didn't lose out in this deal, after all. The scroll was way way stronger than the treasures he currently had. Just possessing the scroll turned his chances from 28% to 32%.
A single rise in chances was very vital for Jin Rou. Thus, 4% was actually big. Remember, that old man Lincon had 3% only.
The Northern Queen Region was larger compared to the south, and here most you could see were forests and the sea. Right now, Jin Rou's destination was a certain mountain peak located near the abandoned village.
The Restless Mountain was a normal place for most people, but Jin Rou knew that it wasn't that simple. It's just people had not enough prowess to show.
When Jin Rou reached the peak, he sighed. It wasn't the same like the last time Han Li saw it. There was a falls here but now, the rocks that had it was no longer present.
Han Li used to rest here whenever he's in the Northern Queen. Being one of the apex beings, he was usually hunted down and this place was his resting area to take a breather. Even him was getting tired of the same routine. It's not like his dao heart became weak, it's just that after trillions of years, everything became tiresome.
Jin Rou sat at a corner and observed the grasses below. His eyes were activated as it bypassed the laws and mysteries hiding in the mountain, "I see. So that's what happened."
"Young Noble, have you found something?" Meishei asked. She was worried because Jin Rou was moving weirdly.
"This land, do you know something about it?" Jin Rou asked. His eyes were still focused on the grass.
"I heard from my ancestors that this is Restless Mountain and rumored to be the resting place of a deity. I don't know exactly, but that's what I'm told." Meishei answered. Her ancestors were very capable to know some and seldom they answered her questions.
"Almost right." Jin Rou chuckled at the word deity. He was not qualified to be called that way as he was no deity-like being, "The dao here, in the past, is very thick. A perfect place for meditation."
Han Li used the mountain also as his meditating place during his enlightments. That's why Restless Mountain was one of the favorite places he usually visited.
But things changed now. The peak of this mountain was very different compared to before. The ancient towering trees were no longer here and the falls had no water. It was a desolate place, to speak of. No one would want to live here.
It was understandable, though.
When Jin Rou was about to stand up, a figure suddenly appeared out of nowhere. It was a woman wearing a black robe with a moon printed on the robe.
? "Who are you?" The woman asked with a cold tone, "This place is off limits to outsiders. You shouldn't be here."
Recently, the Evermoon Palace bought a land here and the Restless Mountain was part of it. Even the abandoned village was a part, too. Thus, they didn't welcome people here. It was now a private property, after all.
Evermoon Palace was a powerhouse full of girls. Although they weren't in the level of a superpower, their prowess was already very near at that stage. Moreover, they didn't usually interact with other sects.
Their dao was only suited for girls, thus their disciples, masters, and ancestors were all women and there was no exception.
"Why so?" Jin Rou asked. He didn't ignore the woman. Of course, he already knew what sect she was affiliated with.
The woman's beautiful black eyes flashed with a glint and responded, "Because this is a private property. That's enough reason for you not to be here. Evermoon Palace has already bought a big area of land here and this mountain is part of it."
Jin Rou smiled after hearing this, "Your Evermoon Palace seems to have much money to buy lands."
"It's none of your business." The woman's attitude was getting colder, "Just get out of this place before I throw you out myself."
Meishei wanted to interject between the two. She was worried about the woman getting killed by Jin Rou. After all, all her observations of him made her assumptions scarier than the previous.
"And how can you make me get out of here, I wonder?" Jin Rou laughed, "I'd really like to see you try it."
He was obviously provoking the other party. The woman was too hot-headed for her own good. Jin Rou took a liking in teasing girls, it seemed fun so he might as well do it sometimes.
"Step!" The woman took a heavy step forward and bent her one knee, she took out a small knife and was about to charge at Jin Rou, "You think I won't try to kill you?" f𝘳𝚎𝐞we𝐛𝑛𝐨𝘃e𝘭.co𝘮
"As I said, I'd like to see you try." Jin Rou was having an interested expression. He was looking forward in what the other party would do next.
"Then let's see!" She was provoked over and over again. It would appear she's easy to be bullied if she didn't attack now. She dashed towards Jin Rou with a fast speed and aimed for his neck. Though she didn't plan on Killing him, she wanted to let him feel fear!
But when she was about in the range of Jin Rou, someone pulled her literally which made her fall butt first.
"You nasty disciple, the second I took my eyes off you, you're already messing with someone!" A middle aged woman sighed as she looked at her fallen disciple on the ground. She looked at Jin Rou and smiled wryly, "I apologize on behalf of my disciple, Young Noble. She is a bit hot-headed so please try to understand just this one."
The woman was flabbergasted and didn't know what to say.
