Chapter 785 - Eliminating the Xiahous
“It can’t be. It can’t,” Lord Xiahou murmured, walking in haste.
Without anyone leading the way, it would be impossible to find the entrance to the back room. On his way, it didn’t seem to Lord Xiahou that anyone had broken in. He arrived at the entrance of the back room at the end and walked in.
“Damn it!!!” Then everyone in the manor heard his gut-wrenching scream.
None of the five treasures were there. The back room was empty.
…
“I’ve seen many freaks, but I’ve never seen such a freak,” Jiang Chen muttered after leaving the Xiahous.
Why would they even care whether Flame Emperor was dead or not? It had nothing to do with them. It was baffling that they had fallen out with him so suddenly. The fact that he didn’t have a clue about it was what made it so annoying.
Jiang Chen frowned. He didn’t buy it, since his father had been doing that for many years with nothing unusual happening.
However, he also realized that his father had mastered the tenth turn and that he wasn’t a match for his father yet.
“All right. I agree.”
“So, tell me. Where did the Goddess of Empyrean go?” Flame Emperor asked eagerly.
“She flew away,” Jiang Chen said.
“What do you mean?”
“The Goddess of Empyrean is already a Martial Divinity. No one in the Nine Realms is a match for her. She didn’t want to live such a lonely life, so she decided to get rid of the emptiness, and she left for another world,” Jiang Chen said.
“It’s true? Is there another world for real?” The Flame Emperor was very shocked. He had never heard about such a thing.
Jiang Chen shrugged his shoulders. He thought of the Realm of Nine Heavens and the folks of the Hundred Thousand Mountains.
They didn’t know about the existence of planes’ channels. They thought the Realm of Nine Heavens was the only world, too. People like him, who knew about the existence of the Nine Realms, could also wonder whether there was another Nine Realms, or whether there was a whole intact world.
No one really knew; no one who had left for another world had ever come back.
According to historical records, the Goddess of Empyrean had torn the sky apart in the presence of various big shots of the Sacred Zone, then disappeared, so Jiang Chen believed there was another world.
“I feel like you didn’t answer anything,” the Flame Emperor said unhappily.
“Same here,” Jiang Chen said.
“Well, I won’t argue with you.”
“Are you sure you can do it? What if you can’t? I’ll die at the Xiahous.” Jiang Chen wasn’t very convinced by him.
“I can even help you eliminate the Xiahous!”
