Chapter 473: Encounter

The news of the imperial clan's downfall has spread all over the entire universe and it shook them to their core. Not just that, the Tabler Clan was the one responsible for it. Just imagine, the strongest family in the entire multiverse was overthrown by a second family. Just how outrageous was that?

But the ancient beings knew that there were more that meets the eye. The events happened secretly, as if a dark fog covered the entire palace. So no one could see anything. The fog only disappeared when the Tabler Clan was overthrowing the imperial family.

In the hidden palace located in the sky, the two ancient and strong beings were discussing what the events had transpired last night.

"Looks like he have done it this time." Law Anxiu sighed, "The moment I saw him, I knew that he has a hidden hatred deep inside him. His eyes were burning with it after all."

"I know. I saw it too, those raging hatred hidden in his eyes. Normal people won't be able to notice it, but as old folks would." The skeleton king said, "The Tablers have found a monster backing them. It looks like it will be a prosperous years to come for them."

"Indeed. With that man's power, they can immediately stabilize themselves without having to worry about the oppositions of other forces." Law Anxiu said, "Thus, not only their power will rise to the utmost heavens, they will also become the strongest family of all. Everyone will bow before them and their wishes will be at beck and call."

"I wonder what benefits that man can have here." The skeleton king said, "You see, he's not the type of helping people for free. So there must be a benefit for him here too. But I'm sure, it won't be power to rule this place. After all, if he wanted it, he must have ruled it by now."

"What if he wants to rule it, but by using the clan to manipulate everything in the shadows?" Law Anxiu said with serious tone, "Everyone will be clueless of who is him. So, people who want vie for that position will surely take steps back. After all, they will not want to be the next Prime family victim. Hiding in the shadows is the easiest and most convenient for someone who wants to stay lowkey."

The king agreed with this notion. Actually, he was thinking about this too, "Then as a Law, what do you think the other laws will do about this? A prestigious family has been eradicated. They might move to do something about this."

"No, they will not do anything." Law Anxiu smiled, "How can they do something about it when the perpetrator is the successor of the most powerful Law in the entire heavens?"

"Hah, so that's how it is." The skeleton king laughed weakly, "That child has so much luck in his life that even the entire heaven and earth will be envious."

Law Anxiu didn't comment on this and just closed his eyes. It was tiring to watch the battle last night as he needed to use so much power to uncover the fog.

Jin Rou was using the space to move to practice his skills more. In the recent battle, his control over time and space was still lacking and one mistake can injure him severely.

Then after a few minutes of doing it, a figure appeared out of nowhere. It was a girl with exquisite figure. Her beauty was out of this universe in the eyes of Jin Rou that even the sun and moon would praise her.

She was standing there motionless as if she was waiting for his arrival. It was a random place, a garden filled with pink flowers.

"Syni Su." Jin Rou didn't expect to meet this girl right now. He was still stabilizing himself from the previous battle. But it was already too late, it would be bad if he walk away now.

"Jin Rou." Syni Su's eyes were devoid of emotion. It was like she was born without a soul yet alive, "It's nice to meet you again."

The usual energetic girl he knew had vanished entirely. And Jin Rou couldn't help but feel a pain in his heart. Nevertheless, he was good at hiding his feelings and said, "It's nice to meet you too. The event will be days more. And I think it won't be held anymore."

"I also heard." Syni Su smiled a bit and said, "It is a good thing though. I was just forced to come here and now that it was postponed, I can go back home and take care of my father."

"How is he?" Jin Rou asked with worry.

"He is depressed. Actually, he is more depressed than I am right now. I think, he can't manage to lead the family for the time being. So I must hold the fort and be there as soon as possible." Syni Su turned her back and said, "You don't have to be sorry anymore. I don't blame you, even my father knows this too. So stop it. Your family has not done anything wrong, and more so do you."

Jin Rou didn't expect that his thought would be read like that. He couldn't help but hold his right ear.

Syni Su knew what was this indication and smiled, "And seeing you here, I think I know now what caused the upheaval here in the capital."

"Well." Jin Rou didn't want to say. Syni Su was still intelligent as ever. She could event cope up and adjust herself when things in het family were going south by holding the fort. She was an amazing woman, and Jin Rou knew this from the start.

"I'll be going now, Jin." Syni Su summoned a gate and said, "I'll be going home. What about you?"

"I'll be going home, too. I need to pass by your universe to reach mine. So, would you mind if I tag along?" Jin Rou didn't know where did he get the guts to say these daring words.

Syni Su looked at his expression and laughed, "Sure."
