Shizu's Advices
🕑 Added 2024-07-09 19:29:03 +0000 UTC--- Chapter 255 ---
Yu Long felt refreshed after Chu Yueli massaged his shoulders. He didn't know she was this skilled in massaging technique.
When Yu Long praised Chu Yueli, she told him it was Shizu's technique, and she only learned it recently.
"That maid sure knows almost everything..." Yu Long commented out of sheer disbelief.
"Of course I do!" Shizu appeared from thin air, landing on the floor near Chu Yueli.
"Greeting and good evening, Master." She winked at Yu Long.
"You too, Yueli."
Yu Long stared at Shizu and asked, "Are you here to tell me about the invasion, too?"
Shizu shook her head gently and replied, "The invasion won't be much of a challenge for you. The problem lies within Asura or Destroyer's higher lineups."
"You know about them?"
"To a certain degree, yes."
"Ever since my failed reincarnation plan, my memory is messy. When I was still the Ancestral Goddess, many forces tried to enter the Primal Chaos Dimension and create havoc."
"I, the sole observer and ruler, made a straightforward decision and sealed the Primal Chaos Dimension from those influences."
"In fact, my remaining Ancestral Will should be somewhere in the Primal Chaos Dimension to prevent the higher influence from passing through."
"The weaker ones already passed, but they aren't strong enough to threaten those in the Divine King Realm."
"This... And you didn't tell me?" Yu Long frowned in displeasure.
Shizu bitterly patted her forehead, "Sorry... It's not that I don't tell you, Master."
"It's more like I can't tell you before the right time. Being able to see more is sometimes more of a curse instead of a blessing."
"Once again, please forgive me." She looked at him earnestly.
"As your maid, I can only assist you from the shadows. I had to obey some rules so this universe wouldn't get destroyed before the eventful time."
Yu Long sighed, "Whatever..."
"Given how things are going, there is no need for additional preparation."
"I will only do things quickly and finish some projects ahead of time."
"We will break the crisis forcibly when it comes."
Shizu clapped, "It's good that you're taking this positively."
"As expected of my Master, you're ready for all kinds of situations."
"By the way, have you met one of the King's Mark Bearers?"
"You know the answer is yes. Why bother to ask?" Yu Long gave Shizu a weird look.
For once, Shizu put on a troubled look.
Shizu sighed, "It's for the sake of formality. Just think of it as a habit from my 1st life."
"At the time, I was the only being in the newly born Primal Chaos Dimension."
"You'd start monologuing to yourself when you're the only being who ever existed in the Primeval Era..."
Yu Long was speechless, "Your soul is so strong, a weird habit traveled to your reincarnations. I don't know if I should be impressed or worried."
"I'll be happy if you're worried." Shizu cheekily smiled at him.
Yu Long flicked Shizu's forehead, "Don't get ahead of yourself. Just tell me what you want to tell."
"Ouch!"
Shizu rubbed her forehead with a pained look.
The flick didn't harm Shizu. It was painful for a second, though.
It's like an accidental zap from a stretched rubber band.
Shizu pouted, "That's so mean."
Yu Long stretched his hand again, and Shizu hurriedly retreated.
"Ehem, so anyway." Shizu cleared her throat. "I'm here to warn you about a few things."
"First of all, the Heavenly King of Greed should have explained about the King's Mark. He was telling the truth."
"Master, you're the 13th King and the possessor of Rudra King's Mark, making you the bearer of Howler."
"Howler's power focused on destruction, making you one of the strongest Kings. You can experiment with it yourself."
"Next is Iron Blood Laws. They are one of the Oldean Laws, formed from the continuous slaughter of Destroyer's victims, which could bind one's destiny and fate to endless fighting."
"It has no physical restriction on oneself, but you were obligated to accept any battle, whether small or big."
"To put it simply, it was resentment."
"Once you reject a fight, you will be marked as a coward and less than a worm. This status weakens your virtue and karma. You will get shunned by the Destroyers, and the world you lived in will suffer utter destruction."
Yu Long stared at the King's Mark and mumbled, "Resentment, huh?"
Shizu nodded and continued, "The Destroyers have wiped countless lives, and your job as one of the Kings is to avenge them."
"Last but not least, the King's Trials."
"I'm sure the Heavenly King of Greed told you not to worry about it, and he's right."
"The King's Trial is more like training. It builds your nature as a king."
"Given how you always composed yourself so far, your nature as a King is obvious, so worrying about it is futile."
"Just keep walking like you used to and live as you always are."
"I see..." Yu Long finally understood.
"Do you know the Heavenly King of Greed's identity?"
Shizu shook her head bitterly, "Normally, I can't see through his armor."
"As long as he wore that obsidian armor, I can't calculate his identity."
"One thing for sure, he's your ally."
"Actually, you should worry more about the Little Demon Empress, Huan Caiyi." She casually dropped a bomb of wariness.
Yu Long's expression darkened, "What do you mean?"
Shizu giggled, "Huan Caiyi is a very stubborn woman."
"She'd do her best to make you fall in love with her."
"Hehe, that's one more harem member to handle."
"..." Yu Long.
Seeing Yu Long's blank face, Shizu was satisfied and waved her hand while disappearing into the void.
"Good luck, Master~!"
"That woman..." Yu Long stared at the empty floor dumbly.
Chu Yueli witnessed this and couldn't help but smile. If what Shizu said is true, she would do her best to repel that fox-like woman from Yu Long.
...
...
Shizu walked on a spatial passage and glanced back.
"During the crisis, you must endure some bad memories..."
"Master, your Kaiju Maker is Primal Chaos Dimension's biggest hope to reach a higher stage."
"I hope you can develop Kaiju Maker past that realm and bring the new epoch as the King."
"Unfortunately, my Ancestral Will scattered all over or else..."
"Aih, no, there is no use in regretting my decision," Shizu mumbled.
"True Nothingness."
"Let's see if Ling'er can wield it."
With that in mind, the former Ancestral God walked away.
...
...
Heavenly Demon Cult, Yun Canghai's room.
Huan Caiyi sat on the stone chair and gazed at Yun Canghai calmly, "Yun Canghai, good job."
"Even though you can't save them and bring disaster to your family, I can see how sincere you are to the Illusory Demon Royal Family."
"Past is past, present is present."
"Bringing the Demon Emperor's Seal here. I will treat the Yun Family in high regard and give them every resource, including the ones I held in the last few hundred years."
"Thank you, Little Demon Empress." Yun Canghai kneeled on the ground.
"If possible, I want to tell you about something..."
Huan Caiyi raised her brows, "What is it?"
Yun Canghai's murderous intent flashed, "The truth about the Demon Emperor and Little Demon Emperor's death!"
Huan Caiyi's body froze.
"Canghai, you..."
"Please listen to me first, Little Demon Empress."
"I think I know who betrayed and backstabbed the Demon Emperor."
"This person is also the same person who killed the Little Demon Emperor on the night of your wedding before sending his corpse to the Four Great Sacred Grounds."
Huan Caiyi gripped the edge of her seat tightly, and the stone cracked under her strength, "Canghai, I already know..."
"You already knew?" Yun Canghai was shocked.
Huan Caiyi indifferently looked up, "It's Duke Ming."
"I've traced everything back to him."
"However, I didn't kill him because the Illusory Demon Realm will fall into chaos. I must know people who supported him first before killing their tumor-like existence forever in one swoop."
"At the same time, Duke Ming also gathered power in the shadows."
"Recently, he has become quite brave..."
"What's he planning?" Yun Canghai is mad.
Huan Caiyi stared at the Demon Emperor's Seal and answered, "What else? He wanted to enter Golden Crow's Lightning Flame Valley and evolve his bloodline."
"I'm sure the source of his confidence is the Demonic Cores."
"Unfortunately for him..." Huan Caiyi's aura flared, and a wind elemental spirit danced around her. "I've come prepared."
"Prepare yourself, Canghai."
"We will drag Duke Ming to hell crawling..."
