The Adventures Of The Young Master

Windking's trip to this place had cut off his whole personal treasury in half. Just imagine, a perfect immortal's treasury had been halved just for a single trip to an overlord's nest. Not just anyone would be willing and capable of such feat. After all, there was no guarantee that you would succeed in what you wanted to do. In fact, there's a high chance that you would be killed in the process.

"We're here." Windking said as he confirmed the location. It was a garden filled with black plants. Every plant emitted a dangerous dark aura that could suffocate normal beings, "This is one of the seven overlord's nest."

"Of the seven nests, why did you pick this one?" Jin Rou asked. He knew there was a reason why Windking chose this nest. After all, he was a perfect immortal. He had an abundant knowledge out of most people..

"Good question." Windking smiled to lessen the tense atmosphere, "The overlord slumbering here was once a human in the past. One of the legendary immortals history has ever recorded."

"Strong as your Windgod?" Jin Rou asked curiously.

"Far stronger than our Master." Windking smiled wryly. He had personally tasted the aura of that monster in his sweeping against realm years. Fortunately, Windgod was present so they survived it. But who would have thought that he'd come back here?

Fate was surely playful. He thought. No matter what, he was doing this for the sake of the world.

Jin Rou didn't mind Windking asking for help even though he was already here. It was natural that Windking wouldn't place all his bets on Jin Rou. The survival of Immortal was on the line. He couldn't make a single mistake.

After walking for several minutes, they finally saw a tiny hut made of straws. It looked like a home of a poor family struggling for their daily lives. By the side, there was a farm filled with black crops. Each was very beneficial when they had a strong affinity with darkness.

And not so far away from the farm, there was a figure crouching, holding one of the farming tools as the figure carefully clean it.

It was a human, or at the very least, it looked like a human. She had a red long hair in a bun. She also had a seductive body that could tempt the men of the world. In fact, even Windking couldn't help but be mesmerized.

This overlord was a beauty that could topple down a whole realm.

"I didn't expect to have visitors today." The overlord said with a beautiful and seducing voice. She turned her head and looked at them, countless images appeared, "Especially the brat that Windgod had brought here in the past. You have grown old, I must say."

"It's been a while, Imperial Queen." Windking bowed his head in respect. In terms of seniority, this woman had lived for tens of millions of years. She was already a living fossil.

Imperial Queen. Anyone who heard this title would tremble in fear as she was one of the strongest immortals ever in the history recorded. Even Windgod, one of the legendary immortals, couldn't hold a candle against her!

"Imperial Queen, that title has been buried in ages already." The queen smiled, "Speak, what brings you here that you even have to be accompanied by a very strong existence?"

She then looked at Jin Rou with a curious gaze. Jin Rou chuckled and didn't answer. Being seen through didn't bother him. At the very least, the Imperial Queen had eyes.

"This..." Windking smiled wryly but decided to answer straight to the point, "Queen, are you aware that those dark existences are about to invade our world?"

"And?" The Imperial Queen raised her brows, "What does it have to do with me?"

Sure enough, Windking expected this kind of answer. Overlords were powerful existences that even him couldn't fighting against, thus their pride and arrogance was overflowing.

"I want to ask for your help, to save the world." Windking said directly.

"You're asking an overlord, who is part of darkness, to save Immortal?" Imperial Queen laughed, "I thought that you are more than this, Windking brat."

"You are once a human of Immortal, Queen. Do you feel any bit of sympathy towards the people that will be affected once the darkness descends in our realm?" Windking sighed and tried to persuade her, "Besides, I'm not asking for your full cooperation. I just want you to move when you feel you need to."

The Imperial Queen was silent for a while before answering, "What's in it for me? To get some help from an overlord like me, you have to show sincerity, don't you?"

She paused for a moment and added, "Don't bother to tempt me with money or treasures from your gate. There is nothing that could move me there. If you have nothing to show your sincerity, then you can leave now or else you might lose your life here."

It wasn't an empty threat. The Imperial Queen was a infamous butcher in the past, who killed more than billions of people in the past. She could kill anyone without batting an eye.

Windking didn't know what to say. With her level, what could possibly tempt her? It looked like he had no choice but to use it.

He was about to take it out when suddenly, Jin Rou took something from his inventory. It was an old paper from who knew when it was made, "If treasures can't tempt you, how about this?"

"You..." The Imperial Queen revealed a shocked face for the first time, "Where did you get that paper?"

Only existences at her level knew that this scrap paper was a treasure that could define the heavens. If used properly, it was very convenient and destructive. Only overlords like her could had the capability to manifest its power to the fullest extent.

"This is what I can offer. So, is this worthy of your cooperation or not?" Jin Rou smirked. If the queen decided not to help, she'll lose a very good opportunity of something she mostly desired.
