Chapter 856 Ancestral



Crown Prince Shen didn\'t actually think that Jin Rou would say such things. He should know that they\'re currently fronting the ancestors, the oldest existences, of the Imperial Throne. They were people who lived for who knew how long now?

There was a long silence after saying that. The other side of the door didn\'t respond to this immediately. Anderson was already praying to the gods available to make him survive.

This lunatic was pulling all their legs! It was one thing to act arrogantly in someone\'s turf, but to actually include them in this large farce, it\'s absolutely ridiculous!

"It\'s been a while since someone dared to say such words in front of me." The old voice suddenly came again, "What is your name?"

"Jin Rou. A new traveler of the train." Jin Rou answered.

"So you are from the outside, I see." The old voice said, "It\'s no wonder. Particularities of the outside realm have the same trait as you. They think they can own the Dark Train because of their talents only to suffer a miserable death."

The old voice had met too many people in the past. Each of them had unique characteristics and similar traits, depending on the person and their influence. Of course, he met many talented younglings that had the future to make the whole world bow to them. Unfortunately, they didn\'t even mature yet before dying. And what must be the reason for this?

"Arrogance." The old voice added, "It is the origin of all failures. Too much arrogance."

"But it\'s not the case if you can back your arrogance up, Old Man." Jin Rou said, "Now, open the door or I will really destroy this damn door. I don\'t joke around, especially with my current mood."

Soon, the twin door slowly opened with a creaking and metallic sound. Jin Rou smiled and entered the place without further ado.

The others also entered, albeit with much difficulty. They didn\'t know what would happen, but they knew it\'s probably not something good.

Upon entering the gate, what met them was a garden filled with herbs. There was also a falls which was working in reverse. The energy here was completely off the charts, maybe one of the best energies out there. Moreover, the place wasn\'t restricted by the prospect, so people here could do anything as long as it\'s within the means of the place.

Soon, an old figure appeared out of the bushes. He was an old man wearing something primitive. With only a beast skin as his cover, you could assume that he\'s one of the first people on the world.

His long gray hair was fluttering by the wind as he pinned the spear down the ground, "I heard that you have the solution for the Calamity Scheme?"

The prince and Anderson knelt down in respect while Jin Rou and Sylvianna remained standing. They weren\'t part of this world, anyways. So it didn\'t actually matter.

"Yes, for a very cheap price." Jin Rou said. He helped himself and sat down the glass chair by the side.

"So it\'s not for free?" The ancestor asked.

"Old man, there is no free lunch in this world. How can I surrender something so important without getting anything?" Jin Rou chuckled.

"Then let\'s hear it." The ancestor entertained. His eyes were like a dancing ruby with its red cornea.

"I need the key in your possession." Jin Rou tapped his finger, "I don\'t think I need to tell you what I\'m talking about, do I?"

Hearing this, the ancestor\'s expression changed for the first time. Soon, thick eminence came out all of a sudden, "Not only you are arrogant. You are also greedy."

"It is not a bad deal if it can save your lives. Remember, you don\'t have any use to the key anyway once you are wiped out from the Dark Train." Jin Rou said.

"Imperial Throne has prepared for so many years now. I doubt that we will still fail despite that." The ancestor firmly said. He wasn\'t willing to trade the key for something which had no guarantee. It\'s the lives of millions of people here on the line.

"But do you think it\'s enough? Do you know why those super powerhouses like yours suffered Calamity Schemes despite not being too aggressive?" Jin Rou smiled, "It\'s because to tick the balance to the middle. Just your existence alone isn\'t something the Possibility of Prospect will let go of."

The Possibility of Prospect was always neutral and balanced. Since it\'s the keeper of the natural balance, it always weigh everything and adjust its contents in order to keep it from ticking the balance.

Now, many super powerhouses had suffered Calamity Schemes, and no one of them had survived. What did it mean? It just meant that those who would experience this was like an official death judgement. And no matter how long and meticulous you prepared, the possibility wouldn\'t let you off the hook unless the target killed themselves.

It was always the cruel aspects of the Dark Train, and would always be. And also one of the reason why World Era had no competitors for the highest authority.

,m "The key is our national treasure which isn\'t for public use." The ancestor didn\'t change his mind, "Let the Calamity Scheme kill us, then."

"For an ancestor of your level, you\'re too dumb." Jin Rou snorted, "You\'re willing to sacrifice the lives of those innocent people under you to die with you? You might have lived long enough, but there are a lot who are just starting with their dreams, and here you are trying to break it when you already have the chance to change it."

The ancestor was silenced. Not everyone would be willing to die with him, that\'s true. But what could he do? He was no more than an average old man in front of the possibility. If it willed them to die, he had no choice but to die, then.

He was about to speak when a new old voice came around, "Accept the terms, Waji."

Soon, an old man wearing a white robe appeared with his long beard fluttering with the wind.
