Emperor Shiva clenched his fist. He was an Emperor, someone who commanded awe and respect of the masses. Even the other powerhouses had to pay respects to him. But now, not only he was getting the respect he used to have, he was even ignored.
If it's other people, they would immediately accept the proposal and jump in glee.
The masses were stumped. This guy just ignored the Emperor as if he was a fart there! Who would dare to do this to such a powerful person? Perhaps only this guy would!
"So I guess, I'll take it as a no, then?" The emperor was getting enraged now. His eminence was leaking despite the force control he was using.
Finally, Jin Rou looked at him and said, "Oh, I thought there's a fly buzzing. It seems you're a human in a decent flesh. My bad."
The voice was filled sarcasm and disgust.
The normal people looked at each other and thought the same, 'This guy is nuts'
He actually called Emperor Shiva a buzzing fly!
"Boom!" Emperor Shiva was triggered and his eminence was released like a angered ocean. Thousand stars suddenly hid as his eyes contained anger that the world couldn't carry.

"I advise you not to try." Jin Rou nonchalantly said. He was speaking without looking at the Emperor.
"Will you dare?" Emperor Shiva spoke with a cold tone. He was resolute in settling things here by force.
He was an Emperor, someone who should earn respect from the masses. Being treated like this was out of the question!
Now, the tension between the two became thicker and rising. People started to back off afraid that they would be implicated.
"Stupid." Jin Rou snorted, "You must be so excited to meet your death. Very well, let's have you delivered there."
Without any signs, he moved and gripped the leg of the emperor. The happening was too sudden that no one could react fast enough.
Emperor Shiva was aghast after feeling the cold grip on his neck. He tried to remove the hand, but it seemed to be pasted on his neck.
He struggled and struggled until the end. However, he couldn't remove the hand and eventually felt weaker. And then, his body limped and became lifeless.
The Emperor died without a fight. He just died an irreconcilable death. At the end, his eyes were filled with despair and fright. Perhaps, there was also a regret that he felt.
Everyone was silenced to see this. No one dared to utter a single word. An emperor just died like that. He couldn't even put a fight. He trained for so many years only to die in the hands of an unknown person.
"This is impossible..." One ancestor murmured. His eyes were filled with horror as he looked at the man of the show.
He looked and simple and weak. However, there was a hiding monster inside, ready to devour anyone who try to near him.
"This is cheating!" A brave ancestor from a prestigious group shouted, "The Possibility of Prospect should have not allowed this!"
It was true. The 'prospect' was the balancer of the world. Because of it, the natural balance was being kept so that the Dark Train could keep existing.
However, what would happen if the balance was broken? There were severe consequences if that was to happen. Anyone in their right mind would also assume that something was fishy going on.
"It's Blake Ancestor." An expert said.
Blake Ancestor was a powerful master which revered by many people. Although he wasn't renowned compared to the brilliant masters of the world, his achievements couldn't be gone unnoticed. After all, he was rumored to have helped Emperor Thania to succeed the throne!
Take note, Emperor Thania was one of the strongest emperors of the Dark Train. He once challenged an Administrator to a duel and despite losing, he was praised by the latter to have a further potential.

It's no wonder that Blake Ancestor was respected by the masses.
"If that's the case, how did I cheat?" Jin Rou was smiling. His smile was telling those who knew him very well that he's cooking up a plot. Unfortunately, there was no one to witness this.
"I don't know, but I know you cheated. There's no way someone could actually kill an Emperor inside this restricted area." Blake Ancestor insisted.
He had a point. More often than not, schema areas had restriction regarding the power level of a participant so that the schema would be fair and square. While it's not entirely impossible to kill an Emperor inside, it's not easy. As a matter of fact, it's extremely difficult. Only the Zodiacs and the authority could possibly kill one inside.
And now, someone unknown did it. It's understandable that he assumed it was cheating. Unfortunately, that wasn't the case and would never be the case.
"Your point is pointless without a proof." Jin Rou smirked, "If I did cheat, the Possibility of Prospect shod have punished me now? But that wasn't the case, no?"
An accusation would remain as an accusation without a liable proof. At the very least, the ancestor had to show how did the other party unless he wanted to be ashamed needlessly.
He was about to speak when the panda watching the scene suddenly intervened, "There is no cheating happened. All of the actions are aligned with the Possibility of Prospect."
The ancestor choked on his words. How was that possible? An officer of the authority had already confirmed it and no matter what he said, it would all useless.
The panda didn't even like it, too. He was very sure that the prospect restricting Jin Rou had been unbinded but it was undetected by the Possibility of Prospect. How did it happen? How could someone know to play the laws of the natural balance?
This was a matter worthy of reporting to the higher ups.
"Heard it?" Jin Rou said with a jeering expression, "You must have gone senile for being too old now."
Everyone backed off several steps. They were looking at Jin Rou as if he was a monster. Their confidence was immediately broken. It felt like they were seeking death should they try to fight him head on.
