--- Chapter 254 ---

Watching Huan Caiyi leave with Yun Canghai, Yu Long leaned on his sofa and couldn't help but sigh. She didn't offer much to the table, but Yu Long preferred not to busy himself with Illusory Demon Realm right now.

As Huan Caiyi said, making unnecessary problems isn't something Yu Long wants.

"Master, those two people earlier." Chu Yueli suddenly mentioned Ares and Anisha.

Yu Long glanced at Chu Yueli, "The annoying guy is a scum I know from my previous life. As for the woman, she was a nun from an organization called the Church of Khaos."

He didn't bother to hide such information from Chu Yueli because he knew he could trust her.

Chu Yueli's expression turned solemn, "The Primal Chaos Dimension is becoming more chaotic."

"Yes." Yu Long nodded in agreement. "But don't worry, you're strong enough to handle a guy like Ares."

"As long as you reach the Divine Origin Realm, you shouldn't have a problem killing a man of his caliber."

Chu Yueli smiled, "I'm not that level yet, but soon. I want to see if I can emulate the Desperado State that Hong Guan and Su Meiling experienced."

"If I can achieve it in a few tries, I'd give up and choose the normal method instead."

"You're not confident?" Yu Long asked, trying to see Chu Yueli's burning spirit.

Chu Yueli shook her head gently, "From what Hong Guan explained, she went through a series of enlightenments. Such a case only occurred with a proper accumulation and chance."

"I know my limit."

"You're cold-headed." Yu Long commented in amusement.

Chu Yueli giggled, "For you, I'm willing to be a little ice fairy."

"Also... You've been spying on us for a while now. Why don't you show yourself?"

"Impressive." A calm voice echoed in the Hidden Garden.

"Someone besides the Kaiju Maker senses me... It seems my ability has rusted slightly."

Heavenly King of Greed appeared in his full obsidian armor, sitting on the seat opposite Yu Long. He poured the tea into the gap of his helmet and said, "Delicious."

"That quenches my thirst."

Yu Long didn't mind the Heavenly King of Greed'd sudden appearance. He had always been aware of the mysterious fellow's presence.

He stared at him, "You come here for something, right?"

"I'm coming for that, actually." The Heavenly King of Greed pointed at the Crimson Eye Mark on the back of Yu Long's right hand.

Yu Long glanced at the Crimson Eye Mark, "Tempest said you also have a similar mark. King's Mark, was it?"

The Heavenly King of Greed nodded while patting his chest, "Yes, I have one here, but I won't show it to you."

"Different people have different King's Mark."

"Yours is quite an unorthodox one."

"Is that so?" Yu Long was nonchalant. "I also heard that Nun Anisha told me this mark was the Sign of Disaster from Destroyers?"

"How long until the Thirteen Days War started?" Yu Long asked after thinking about the imminent danger.

The Heavenly King of Greed awkwardly froze, "That... I also don't know."

"You're unreliable as fuck!" Yu Long cursed at him.

"You're reminding me of someone, after all..."

The Heavenly King of Greed broke a cold sweat, "Hoho, I wonder who that person is..."

"I hope he's as handsome as me."

Chu Yueli, who had been quiet, suddenly asked, "The trial. Will my Master get sent to a random place like you?"

"Because I don't think you're from around here..."

The Heavenly King of Greed thanked Chu Yueli for diverting the topic and answered, "The answer is no. I don't get randomly sent to my trial as I chose to be here."

"I chose this place because I knew the Kaiju Maker would be here."

"You can choose?" Chu Yueli was surprised.

The Heavenly King of Greed nodded, "The Destroyers obviously like a challenge. They wouldn't interfere with your growth and wished you to become as strong as possible."

"People called them maniacs, but they honored a straightforward battle and loved iron blood rules."

"Given that you're so strong already, I think your first trial will be in 5-7 days." He added while staring at Yu Long.

"At that time, your King's Mark will issue a task that helps your growth."

"It can range from improving your innate ability, raising your cultivation base and weapon mastery, to building an army of your own."

"That's interesting." Yu Long tapped the table with his finger.

"Then, what is your trial's content?"

"Sorry, it's a secret." The Heavenly King of Greed answered with an amusement in his voice.

"You are really unreliable..." Yu Long didn't bother to hide his irritation.

The Heavenly King of Greed stood up and walked away, "You don't have to worry much about the trials."

"But you should watch out for the Iron Blood Laws."

"Those are scary things."

"Well, see you soon, Kaiju Maker." With that, the Heavenly King of Greed vanished from the Hidden Garden.

Yu Long clenched his hand in annoyance, "That bastard... He didn't tell me what the Iron Blood Laws are."

"How am I supposed to know what I'd face in the trial?"

"Haa..."

"Let me massage your shoulders, Master." Chu Yueli said to lift some stress off Yu Long.

Yu Long smiled bitterly, "Please, do your best, Yueli..."

"I think I will get a headache at this point."
