The Adventures Of The Young Master

"Scared?" Jin Rou chuckled. It was natural to be afraid of something like this. After all, they were going to attempt to clear a zone which had killed many top beings in the past.

"How could I not be?" Ryan shook his head, "It is the Glory Sky we're talking about! Even top monarchs had died there, I am still young to die. Not yet."

"No one is stopping you from not going." Jin Rou said, "If you don't want to, no one can force you."

He wasn't the type to force things in an unnecessary manner. Everything has to flow accordingly. If Ryan wouldn't, then the matter was settled. There was no need to pressure or put force in it. Everyone had a different perspective and goals in life.

Ryan immediately shut his mouth. While it was a good thing that he wasn't being forced upon, he felt upset for some reason. It felt like things wouldn't change even if he attend it or not.

He then looked at Raina. The lady had a carefree expression while attending to Jin Rou. It felt like it was natural and there's no need to worry about.

Of course, why would Raina be afraid? Even if the sky falls, as long as Han Li was here, there's nothing to be afraid of. By his side was the safest place in the world.

"If you don't want to broaden your horizon, I suggest you stay at an inn first while waiting for us." Jin Rou said. It wasn't that he's chasing away the other party, "We'll be going immediately. It's not the only thing I have to settle."

"Who are you going to go with, Young Master?" Ryan asked with a meek tone.

"You'll know it when we arrive there." Jin Rou smiled.

Glorious Valley. It was the super powerhouse that currently had been managing the Glory Sky. For many generations, the entrance of the danger zone had been kept closed to ensure everyone's safety.

The valley had a monstrous power and abundant resources, that's why. A super lineage that had created five Dao Monarchs, it was normal to brand them as one of the supremes.

Jin Rou and his party had arrived in the current city of the said lineage, Sky Valley City. One had to go to this city and ask for permission to clear it. No one was an exception to this rule. Even the fellow super lineages had to show respect to it. No one, even the highest ancestor of the valley had the right to enter Glory Sky without the permission of the assigned authority in the zone.

Although it was a city, the citizens were only consisted of a minor number, not even reaching 50,000. For a supreme lineage, this amount was too little. However, it was different when we talk about the city before the cruelest Danger Zone.

Because of the unknown danger, the real estate prices of the city was lower than the regular price. For those who were wishing to buy or rent a place for an affordable price, the Sky Valley City was the perfect choice.

As Jin Rou and his group passed by the road, they could see a few stalls and vendors lining up in the right row. There were one or two customers looking for the items being sold but none had been bought.

"It appears to be true that the business in this city is not good." Ryan spoke. He had read some books regarding the city valley, and judging by it, it was all true.

"Glorious Valley isn't focusing on business. Their main priority is to keep the Glory Sky in check. The business stalls here are just for show to let the visitors know that despite the extremities of danger, they were still safe and sound and act like a decent city." Jin Rou spoke. The valley had stood for many eras and generations now and ever since they were tasked to guard the zone, it had been peaceful no matter how dangerous it was.

Well, they deserved the praises too. Nurturing five Dao Monarchs wasn't an easy thing to do. Heavy amount of resources and time were required to create one.

Ryan contemplated this and found it logical. Glorious Valley was a supreme lineage, and despite their declined stage in terms of business, the fact remained that they were still a supreme lineage that could topple the Nine Heavens. They might not be the richest, but he was sure that their treasuries were still big, enough to last for many generations.

After traveling the city, Jin Rou and the group hiked a towering mountain. It was where the portal to the Danger Zone was located. No one stopped them from climbing the mountain as everything was already prepared by a certain existence.

Upon reaching the peak, all they could see was a vast sea of clouds. Some had strange colors like blue and red. By the edge, a figure was standing. He was wearing jet black suit, which made him appear like a butler. His appearance were covered with fog, but a tiny of it was still visible. Black flog was oozing from his below, encircling his very being.

"Contrary to your appearance, you are such an early bird." Jin Rou greeted the figure.

Raina creased his brows as she saw the figure. Her displeasure was instantly registered as she said, "That man is Fog, right Your Majesty?"

"Good eyes. You're right." Jin Rou nodded in confirmation.

Hearing this, Raina almost couldn't restrain herself. She wanted to attack but it would be disrespectful since Han Li was here.

Ryan was horrified. As an acting scholar who read books, there were records that had stated a person named Fog. He was a very notorious and infamous businessman in the Nine Heavens, who had destroyed so many lineages because they didn't follow what he wanted.

Fog was feared by many top ancestors and even monarchs had to be wary of him. As a matter of fact, Fog fought with Saintess Kelle Dao Monarch, the fourth monarch of Glorious Valley. Unfortunately, no one knew the result of it.

"It's been a while, Princess Raina. You have gotten stronger.." Fog greeted the lady with a smile on his face.
