Chapter 1413: Chapter 1440: He Wants You to Walk That Person's Path! Chapter 1413: Chapter 1440: He Wants You to Walk That Person's Path! “Fine, show off for what, is power meant to be flaunted?”
Yang Zhen glared at the cheap cat and turned to the Eastern Desolation Emperor, saying, “How about it, old buddy, want to come back with me?”
The Eastern Desolation Emperor looked at Yang Zhen with a strange expression, hesitated for a moment, and said, “Forget it, I still have some matters to deal with. I have to make a trip back to the East Sea. Once I'm done with my affairs, I'll come looking for you…”
At this point, the Eastern Desolation Emperor fell silent for a long time and spoke with a serious face to Yang Zhen, “Kid, even though I don't know what exactly you've realized, I still think you should speak less of things like 'my way is my will.' Besides… there's a peculiar aura about you that may draw unwanted attention. You must be careful in your actions.”
“Draw unwanted attention?” Yang Zhen was stunned, then he asked, “Damn it, why would something covet the power that this Sao Saint has realized on his own?”
The cheap cat's face changed, and he asked hesitantly, “Are you saying… Yang Xiaozi succeeded?”
The Eastern Desolation Emperor snorted and looked at the cheap cat, saying, “Succeeded? You're making success sound too easy. Whether your method harmed or helped Yang Zhen, it's too soon to tell. I don't know who you are, but you'd best watch yourself, lest you end up harming others and yourself.”
The cheap cat glared at the Eastern Desolation Emperor angrily with his eyes wide and retorted, “What I choose to do is none of your freaking business, but rest assured, how could I possibly harm anyone? Just because you guys can't do it doesn't mean others can't, like…”
Here, the cheap cat said with smug pride, glancing at Yang Zhen, “Like Yang Xiaozi whose talent surpasses all of you combined. There is nothing in this world that Yang Xiaozi can't do.”
The Eastern Desolation Emperor glared, about to speak, but Yang Zhen, with a snort, grabbed the cheap cat and said, “Damn it, I knew you were hiding something, you bastard. You've been pushing this Sao Saint into trouble; now you have to come clean. What the hell are you up to?”
The Eastern Desolation Emperor humphed twice, looking askance at the cheap cat.
The cheap cat glanced at Yang Zhen, then the Eastern Desolation Emperor, and finally set his gaze back on Yang Zhen's face, saying, “It's really nothing major.”
After saying that, the cheap cat let out a weird chuckle and asked Yang Zhen, “Over these years, have I ever harmed you?”
Yang Zhen slapped him over, saying irritably, “Spill it if you have something to say. If you dared to harm this Sao Saint, I would have already made your life a living hell.”
The cheap cat shuddered all over.
Indeed, Yang Zhen, this guy, was only ever on the giving end of the scheming–who would dare harm him?
Seeing the expression on the Eastern Desolation Emperor's face, the cheap cat hesitated for a moment, then said to Yang Zhen, “Actually, now is not the time to tell you all this, but… never mind, kid, do you think… is it possible that other worlds exist beyond this realm?”
Yang Zhen's heart skipped a beat as he stared wide-eyed at the cheap cat, asking, “Of course, there are! So many Void Realms, and the legendary Divine Demon Tomb of the Void Rock World, those are just the ones we know of. Who knows how many other worlds are out there that we don't know about.”
The cheap cat's eyes shone as he looked intensely at Yang Zhen and said in a deep voice, “I'm talking about worlds with a complete set of laws!”
Yang Zhen was suddenly amazed by the cheap cat.
Damn, are the people of this world so progressive in their thinking? Haven't even got started and now considering otherworldly realms?
This was the first time Yang Zhen, a person from another world, was hearing about other worlds–it buzzed his brain.
Are there other worlds?
Worlds with complete laws?
Nonsense, of course, there are. Otherwise, where would Yang Zhen have come from?
Yang Zhen looked at the cheap cat with a puzzled face and asked, “What are you asking this for?”
Unsuspectingly, the cheap cat glanced at the Eastern Desolation Emperor and said, “Legend has it, in the Void Rock World, there's a Plane Spring Eye that leads to other worlds.”
What?
Yang Zhen was startled, his face showing an exasperated expression.
“Are there really things that lead to other worlds?”
But clearly, from the cheap cat's expression, this wasn't something that people from this plane could touch.
Yang Zhen even wondered if these people had gotten it wrong.
Seeing the expression on Yang Zhen's face, Cheap Cat curled its lips and said, “Don't ask. If you ask, it's because you don't know. Since the Barbaric Era, this legend has existed. I, myself, have never seen it, but throughout history, so many powerful beings have yearned to see this legendary Plane Spring Eye.”
“What's the point of seeing it?” Yang Zhen asked curiously.
Curiosity killed the cat, you know. If you really traversed to a much more powerful world, like a mythological world, or perhaps a world of advanced technology, one shot from an antimatter cannon and even an emperor would have to run for their Spirit Soul.
Hearing Yang Zhen's words, the Eastern Desolation Emperor chuckled bitterly and said, “Legend has it that this world was damaged in the great war of gods and demons, its laws unable to be perfected. We are subjected to the cycles of life and death, the will of the heavens, and mankind cannot resist. But… why?”
With the last “why,” a sudden, overwhelming aura burst from the Eastern Desolation Emperor, an aura as powerful as an emperor's soared into the sky, with a dragon serpent in the background letting out a deafening roar.
Roar!
The roar surged mightily, the furious aura erupting like a volcano, capable of destroying heaven and earth.
Yang Zhen was taken aback, as he could sense the Eastern Desolation Emperor's indignant belief, and suddenly he understood.
Yeah, why?
If this world was really a ruin left by the war of gods and demons, then it was the gods and demons who were at fault. Why should the beings of this world endure the suffering of reincarnation?
The laws and order of a world, how many years have to pass before they can truly be perfected? That's anyone's guess.
Maybe a hundred thousand years, maybe a million or ten million years. But by that time, how many beings would still be alive?
Cheap Cat looked at the Eastern Desolation Emperor with a strange expression, waved its hand, and said, “Okay, everyone has tried once and ended in failure. Over the years, even that guy didn't succeed, what is there for you to be resentful about?”
The Eastern Desolation Emperor gave a bitter smile, looked at the Tribulation Cloud gradually forming in the sky, shook his head with a sign, then turned to Yang Zhen and said, “So, do you think Yang Xiaozi can succeed?”
Yang Zhen was taken aback and looked at Cheap Cat.
Cheap Cat let out a weird chuckle and said, “How can you know if you don't try?”
Yang Zhen glared at Cheap Cat and said, “Damn it, I've long felt you were tricking me, Sao Saint. I didn't expect you, you thick-browed bastard, to also dig traps!”
Cheap Cat scratched its head and said, “Kid, this is for your own good. With your personality, would you be content to follow the cycles of the world like the rest of creation, scurrying around like a rat every day?”
Yang Zhen smirked and said, “You bastard understand me better, Sao Saint.”
Speaking of this, Yang Zhen asked curiously, “But how do you know that going to another world will be fine? What if the other world is even more brutal, or what if they're more powerful?”
The Eastern Desolation Emperor laughed heartily and said, “Even if it's more brutal, we can accept it. More powerful? Which one of us practitioners hasn't practiced for many years under tremendous pressure, fought every inch of the way?”
Yang Zhen nodded and said, “You're right.”
Cheap Cat and Nine Dragons Saint gave Yang Zhen a simultaneous look of disdain.
Suddenly, Yang Zhen gave a light exclamation and said, “Wait a minute, what does all this have to do with getting me, Sao Saint, to cause trouble?”
Cheap Cat hesitated, and the Eastern Desolation Emperor with a troubled expression said, “He wants you to follow that person's path, the path that person… never managed to complete!”
