Hearing those words make Raser show a very displeased expression. His eyes were filled with killing intent as he looked at Jin Rou, "Who are you to talk here? You are nothing but an outsider with a Breaking Mortal level."
Raser wanted to teach this guy a lesson. However, Asner was present and he would surely protect the other party. It would be pretty useless if he would spend an effort and it would be just wasted, then it's not worth it. Furthermore, he could just wait for the right time to act. Anyway, Jin Rou was already dead in his eyes.
"Indeed, I am an outsider. But I am here in front of you having to deal with your malicious remarks. If you want to be toxic, go somewhere else. Not here." Jin Rou said. It was obvious that he was shooing the other party away in annoyance.
Asner smiled after hearing this. Having someone side with him was a new and good feeling. Though Jin Rou was just a mortal who was still trying to break mortality, he was already this brave. Of course, should Raser try to hurt Jin Rou, he would be the first one to protect.
"If there is someone that should get out here, it's you. After all, you are an outsider. I can see that you are already better, so why are you still staying here? Trying to suck up into our kingdom?" Raser didn't back down. His expression was filled with sneer.
"I don't need to suck to your kingdom in order to be protected." Jin Rou smiled, "I am just here because I want to properly thank Asner and the ancestor himself of taking care of me. In addition, you have no right to chase me out. Why, do you think you are already above Asner?"
Jin Rou didn't forget to attack the sensitive part of Raser. He knew that Asner's position in the kingdom was higher than Raser, just by hatred and jealousy raging in the latter's eyes. It was easy to deduce, so Jin Rou used it to taunt him.
"Hah." It was a success. Raser was truly enraged. The temperature dropped and the room was filled with killing intent. He didn't expected to be humiliated here over and over again and it was unforgivable for him, "Just because Asner is here protecting you, you dared to run your mouth in front of me? Why, do you think I won't dare to kill you?"
Jin Rou smirked and said, "Do you dare?"
"Boom!" Raser's aura exploded like a wildfire as his eyes were angered, "Of course, I dare! Now, I want you dead."
Raser had lost all his rationality and had thrown caution all over the window. All he wanted right now was to kill Jin Rou and torture him alive.
"If you want to kill him, then kill me first." Asner stood by the front with determined eyes, "You are still shallow as ever. Little provocations still work to anger you. That's why I'm said to be to have the most potential to become the emperor."
"Shut up. If you want to die that badly, then I'll kill you first!" Raser was about to attack when a hand suddenly gripped on him, getting ahold of his body.
It was a strong hand, that Asner couldn't follow through. He creased his brows and already knew who came to prevent the fight.
"Fighting over something silly, it's shameful." A middle-aged man wearing a green robe said. His handsome features had an obvious similarity to Raser, "Stop acting like a kid. You are already a grown up. In the future, you are going to be the emperor of the kingdom so act like one already."
"But Father, that man dares to insult me!" Raser said with indignation. By now, his rationality had returned.
Raser's father looked at Jin Rou and observed him from head to toe. After a careful observation, Raser's father looked at his son once again and said, "If you are already triggered by an insult, how can you become an emperor? Ancient Emperors are not shallow beings. You have to understand that no matter what, there's going to be people underestimating you. But so what? As long as you can prove yourself, then that will make them shut up."
Jin Rou was amused of this. He knew that Raser's father was also looking down on him, yet he chose to educate his son and let him go. He didn't know what kind of trick was up right now. Anyway, he was interested in what's going to happen.
Raser looked down and gripped his fists. Though he wasn't willing, he had no choice but to let it go. Anyway, there would be more times to get his revenge later so why rush?
"You're lucky. Enjoy your living days." Raser flew off and said.
Raser's father smiled at Jin Rou and said, "Please forgive my son for acting that way. He's still a child, that's why he's acting on impulse. Don't worry, I'll be educating him everyday so that this will not happen again."
It was obvious that it wasn't sincere and Raser's father was just doing this for a simple little formality. After all, Jin Rou got the Ancient King's grace. Raser's father didn't want to antagonize the other party only to ruin his plans.
"It's nothing." Jin Rou shook his head. Since the other party was acting, he decided to act along.
Raser's father smiled and took off after that exchange. However, Jin Rou could feel that split second that the killing intent was exposed. He didn't mind it, though.
"I'm sorry for this." Asner quickly apologized and said, "You see, we have our internal problems here and everyone seems to be competing with each other. Well, it is understandable. We are talking about power here."
Jin Rou could roughly understand the situation. Now that there was no emperor to govern the kingdom, there was also no one to control and activate the source. People were rushing to get their descendants be the next emperor. They wanted to reign the kingdom and be one on top, looking down at all people here. It was a kind of privilege that everyone sought for, especially those who have no chance of being the emperor.
