"It's useless talking to me if you're going to side with your father. Not that I'm blaming you, though." Jin Rou said. Whatever Shale Prime decided to do would have nothing to do with him. He already had tried to warn her. It would be up to her if she took it to heart and listen.

"I didn't know you are this heartless." The princess felt her vision was turning blurry. She didn't expect this kind of reality from Jin Rou, someone she was attracted to.

"I am always heartless towards my enemies, Shale Prime." Jin Rou didn't mind what she said, "And if you're going to be one of them, then I guess it can't be helped then."

Jin Rou was clearly invoking that he would also be heartless even to her if she sided with her father. The only choice to maintain a good relationship with this man was to hide and stay away from her father, or watch him die in Jin Rou's hands.

But as a filial daughter of the emperor, how could she do that? Her pride couldn't take it. It was overbearing to an extreme amount of extent!

She walked away then, after thinking a bit about the situation.

Jin Rou also knew this. He knew that the princess had made up her mind and he couldn't do anything about it. He sighed in helplessness, perhaps it was just an ill-fated encounter with the princess in the past.

It was now the night of the next day. Jin Rou was walking towards the giant gate of the imperial palace as if he was just strolling in the park in relaxation. It was the day that he would collect the final debt from the Prime's tab and after this, it would be over.

"Boom!" Jin Rou punched the gate and it was blown away, crushing into tiny pieces of ore. That punch contained a thousand worlds, so it was heavy and powerful enough to carry the weight half of this universe.

Jin Rou kept on walking until he reached the front courtyard of the palace. It was so vast that it was three or four times larger than the courtyard of Tabler's. Then, there was a man with an aloof expression standing as if he was waiting for Jin Rou's arrival.

"So you are the killer behind my family's murders." It was the emperor, of course. He felt an intense killing intent all of a sudden a while ago and knew right away that it was the killer of his wife and sons. Seeing the young man in front of him, he could feel that he wasn't to be underestimated.

"Correction, your sons fight each other to the death while I just provided assistance. But yes, I killed your empress." Jin Rou said as if admitting it was very natural to him. He looked fearless and indifferent as if this was just a little charade for him.

He paused for a moment and resumed, "Furthermore, I didn't expect that the mighty emperor will come and greet me personally. He even set so many elders to activate a formation so that I wouldn't be able to escape. That's fascinating."

"Of course, you deserve such a grand welcoming." The emperor laughed. He was raging inside but he could still keep it checked. It was a very attitude that an emperor should have, "I want to ask you one thing before anything else. Why are you doing this?"

"Why am I doing this, you say?" Jin Rou grabbed a random throne from his space and sat down, crossing his legs, "I wonder, if you are worthy enough to know it?"

"You have already killed my family members. So I guess I deserve a due explanation about this." The emperor was still composed and calm like the sea. There was no hints of changing expression which was very impressive. His precious wife was just murdered just like that and even his sons. Being in a state like this was very hard to attain. After all, humans tend to be overwhelmed by emotions.

Jin Rou also couldn't help but be amazed a bit by the emperor's composure. The killer was already in front of his eyes but he was still being patient.

"Maybe if I already have collected your due debt, I will say it." Jin Rou smirked and said.

"My due debt? You mean my head?" The emperor smiled.

"Yes. It should only be your death, but if some idiots are willing to go along with you, I don't mind killing more of your family." Jin Rou looked at an empty space. Those hidden in that space shuddered and almost got a heart attack after being discovered right away!

"Are you aware that you are currently facing me, the emperor, the strongest being living in this universe?" The emperor smiled. Her pink long hair fluttered by the wind and his handsomeness increased by several folds.

"I am aware." Jin Rou said, "But it isn't enough to threaten me. Now, time to collect some fees."

Jin Rou moved his fingers and a flash passed his eyes. The time and space contorted as Jin Rou moved his fingers by side to side. The background turned gray and the time stopped, but the force carried by the space was still on going.

The emperor could see this through and immediately controlled the space around him to be his defense. The two space collided with each other and the time resumed once again, turning the background how it used to be.

Jin Rou smirked. He had already expected this and immediately locked the entire time and space in a 40 kilometer radius.

"What?" The emperor revealed a shock expression, his expression changed for the very first time as he realized that he was currently facing a monster, "You're a universal law?"

His voice was filled with stupefaction. It wasn't any good news for him at all. He thought that this young man was at best on par with him. Yet, he didn't imagine that he was a universal law!

"What is with that expression?" Jin Rou smiled, "Unexpected things always happen around. That's natural, and you can't do anything about it."

"Activate!" The emperor calmed down himself and used a dao form. Next, a spinning vortex appeared above the sky as if it was ready to annihilate everything in its path.

"Down!" The emperor signaled the vortex and it came down rapidly like a meteor. In order to counter time and space, you need to use something made out of it. And vortex was one of them. Furthermore, the one made by the emperor was a million times stronger than those you can see in the deep spaces.

"Insignificant attack." Jin Rou smirked and coiled the time and space around his palms, giving them a physical appearance. Then, he leaped up and shot a punch towards the vortex without hesitation.
