Hundred Dragons was evil? As a person who always heard his fanatic ancestor always telling him stories about it, it didn't look like it. Especially about Hundred Dragons. But since it came from Han Li, it should be the truth.
"He is branded as an evil by his fellow dragons." Jin Rou clarified, "Because of a choice he had made in the past. Because of a choice no one didn't expect him to choose."
"What is it, Young Noble?" Andreo asked. He was eager to know why Hundred Dragons was branded as an evil by his peers. He felt dying if he didn't discover what the truth was.
"A choice to kill half in order to save half." Jin Rou didn't emphasize more and said, "It's up to you how will you interpret my words. I already gave you the answer, it's up to you how you will understand the truth underlying it."
The two didn't ask Jin Rou again. They knew that it's all they could know. Perhaps they weren't qualified again to know more information regarding this. Nevertheless, it helped them understand more about the history of the world.
They roamed around the plateau for a while now but other than plants and trees, they haven't seen anything or anyone.
"I thought that there are people here." Andreo said. He was bewildered that no one was living here. After all, those ancestors below guarded this place so much that it felt like they were keeping a secret here.
"Hundred Dragons Plateau is a desolate living land." Jin Rou explained, "Even these greedy emperors wouldn't stay here for long more than necessary. More often than not, they would stay below and prevent people from coming in."
"What could they possibly get here, Young Noble? To actually take it for themselves." Fiarra asked curiously.
"Little Fiarra, do tell me. What can be the possible reasons why era emperors want this land? What do they seek in their levels?" Jin Rou asked.
Fiarra was enlightened as she realized something, "To prove their Words."
"Bingo." Jin Rou affirmed, "And this land can give them an opportunity to prove their Words."
Proving one's Words was difficult at the extreme level. After all, if it was easy to do so, there would be plenty of era emperors with high number of Words.
Proving a Word required the right amount of luck and opportunity, as well as talent and enlightment. Each of this must be synced in order to successfully prove their Words. Moreover, the difficulty was rising the more you have Words in your realm.
"This land can bring them the opportunity they seek for. But they have to wait for the right moment or else it will be useless." Jin Rou explained more after pausing for a bit.
The two had learned so much today and they were satisfied. Moreover, they even had chances to meet era emperors and stronger ones, albeit as Young Noble's enemies.
The trio decided to stay here for the night and set up a camping site. Andreo was always prepared for this and had many things in his inventory that could help them live comfortably outside.
"You really brought useless items with you." Jin Rou laughed, "Are you going to a picnic or something?"
There were many treasures Andreo could get in their Immortal Dynasty. Being a lineage with four emperors, getting some wouldn't be a problem especially he was the apple of the eye there. And yet, instead of having important items to bring, he brought such useless camping tools to get his everyday life comfortable.
Fiarra sweetly chuckled as she heard this. Andreo smiled wryly and said, "I just wanted to be prepared well, Young Noble. That's why I brought these camping items. And see, it's comfortable."
Jin Rou didn't tease the guy more and went out for a fresh air. Hundred Dragons Plateau had no beasts living, so the danger level was low during the night.
He created a throne and sat there and observed the night sky with a moon. Although it was just a separate illusions created by Dragon Sky, the night sky here felt real.
Jin Rou was still observing the night sky as he said, "It's unexpected that you will show yourself here."
And then, a figure appeared. He was a young man with his hair tied. There were three blades hanging by his waist. As for his face, he wasn't that handsome but he had this air of coolness surrounding him.
"Threesword greets Your Majesty." The man knelt in front of Jin Rou and said, "Please forgive my people's impudence in blocking your path. They didn't know who you really are, Your Majesty."
"You can always see the real colors of people if they feel superior towards you." Jin Rou coldly said, "Their arrogance has melted down to their bones because you are backing them, Threesword?"

If anyone could hear his name, they would immediately prostate in front of him. After all, Threesword Era Emperor was the third emperor of Blade Immortal!
Remember, this lineage was like Immortal Dynasty, they also produced four emperors under their banner.
Threesword Era Emperor was said to be the most talented genius during his era, that's why he got the will and became an emperor. He practiced their foundation dao law and created his own imperial dao law, Three Swords of the Night.
He had never interacted with Blade Immortal again but he left his imperial dao law there with them as a gift. Now, he was currently residing in Dragon Sky to find an opportunity here in Hundred Dragons Plateau.
"I beg for your forgiveness, Your Majesty." Threesword might be a powerful emperor, but in front Han Li, he was a mere junior and a fly at the same time.
"It's too late. I already suspended Leafmoon's ability to step further in his cultivation." Jin Rou shook his head, "But on account of your brother's contributions, I will not punish you and the others."
Hearing this, Threesword Era Emperor felt his body lightened. He just narrowly escaped death.
