"It's now over..." Seeing the lifeless silver mole beast that had fallen, the members of the grounds couldn't help but sigh in relief. That beast was very strong that they knew themselves that if they try to fight it, they would be killed no matter how many were they.

After all, that beast was almost on par with one of the strongest Ancients of this world. That's a being capable of slaying Ethereals.

But though they were relieved, Stronghold Ancient wasn't.

"Your Highness, do you think that everything will end here?" Stronghold Ancient asked Jin Rou.

"No, for sure, they will come knocking your door again. It seems that they have taken a liking to your dao lake here." Jin Rou answered, "Your dao lake is personally created and modified by your father who's now a celestial living in Rou Celestial Realm. With that modifications, of course, your dao lake would be richer and greater than any dao lakes of this world."

"Indeed. Not to mention that, the location of the dao lake is kinda weird and tempting in the eyes of others." Stronghold Ancient wryly smiled. What was his father thinking when he put this dao lake just below the entrance gate of their place?

"Oh right, Owner Bu and I have something to talk with. So let's hurry and talk about it now in your abode." Jin Rou suddenly changed the topic and said.

It sounded urgent. Thus, Stronghold Ancient immediately agreed and said, "Of course, Your Highness."

After a bit of talk, everyone returned inside the grounds and resumed their trainings and meditations.



"You are planning to attack the Black Star Constellation?" Stronghold Ancient was taken aback when he heard Owner Bu's words. He couldn't help but widen his eyes and asked, "Do you have an irreconcilable feud with anyone there?"

"Not just with anyone. I have an irreconcilable feud with all of the people of the Black Star. Thus, I want to attack them and regain myself." Owner Bu's expression was serious and resolute. It seemed that there's nothing that would change his mind.

"I understand that you are serious. But be aware that Black Star Constellation has an alive Ethereal. Their Ethereal, their founder, is still alive." Stronghold Ancient gravely said, "Not to mention that, they also have an Ancient who is as strong as me. A being capable of slaying an Ethereal alone."

Black Star Constellation was one of the three behemoth constellations that were standing at the apex of Starlight. They held the highest authority in dictating the future course of this world.

Being an apex constellation wasn't easy. After all, one of the requirements was an Ethereal should be alive and overseeing things with one or more Ancients in their arsenal.

To this day, the living Ethereals could only be counted in one's hands including the ones secluding themselves.

And now, the Black Star was Owner Bu's target. A monster that had not been shaken for millions of years now.

Even Stronghold Ancient wouldn't dare to declare something bold like this even in secrecy. After all, even if he was one of the strongest Ancients, he wasn't confident in attacking Black Star Constellation.

"Are you planning on asking for His Highness' aid?" Stronghold Ancient realized this assumption and creased his brows in displeasure. Was this old man plan on using other's knife to kill others? He hated those types the most.

"No." Owner Bu shook his head and answered, "This is my feud so Youngmaster Jin is out of this. Whatever happens, even if I die there, I have no one to blame."

This is Owner Bu's real feelings. He already received too much help from Jin Rou, thus he wasn't willing to add more debt in his tab. He wanted to settle his problem with his own hands. Whether he survive or die, let it be up to fate.

"..." Stronghold Ancient was speechless. This old man, with a power of only a Heavenly Saint, was willing to brace the dangers alone in order to fulfill what he desired.

After collecting his thoughts, Stronghold Ancient sighed and said, "But still, just you alone, you will court death there. Black Star has millions of people all around. In fact, they were much populated than we are here. Just imagine how many enemies will you confront."

"That's okay. I'm prepared whatever will happen." Owner Bu smiled.

"Why are you pushing it this far?" Stronghold Ancient couldn't help but look at Jin Rou and gave a pleading eyes, but Jin Rou only smiled.

"I want to give back the pain and humiliation I received from that damned constellation. Even if it means death to me, I don't care as long as I can injure them severely." Owner Bu's eyes flashed with determination.

He knew himself that he wouldn't completely annihilate this constellation. Thus, he was planning on targeting the main force. If he was lucky, he wanted to kill at least their Ancient. He just wanted to make the Black Star fall from grace.

Only this was the thing that could ease his hatred in his heart. He had kept it now for too long. It's now time to let them know the taste of his wrath.

"..." Stronghold Ancient sighed in powerlessness to sway this old man's resolution. He flicked his finger and a ring appeared, "I'm not able to be of help to you, but this ring is. It's a treasure that I have been keeping to myself all this time and it will surely help you in times you need it. Take it, see it as my thanks for taking care of His Highness."

"Thanks for taking care of Youngmaster...?" Owner Bu was confused why Stronghold said this. He was about to return the ring when Jin Rou suddenly said, "Take it, Owner Bu."

"Then I'm humbly accepting your grace, Stronghold Ancient." Owner Bu swallowed his previous words and bowed.

"There's no need for this ceremony. You are someone that His Highness had taken a liking, so you deserve this treasure." Stronghold Ancient smiled and said.
