Jin Rou keep on walking, trying to find a living being to ask. He wasn't very familiar with this universe, thus he needed to know where he was. Unfortunately, several hours had passed yet it was still unfruitful. Nevertheless, Jin Rou moved forward.
This place seemed to be a desert. Jin Rou tried to get to the bottom of its origins, yet it wasn't available. It just meant that the desert had been here for so long now that history hadn't had a record for it. Anyway, it was again an unfortunate thing. If Jin Rou could find the origins of this place, it was easier to get out of this.
"If I remember correctly, there are a lot of deserts in the Devil State." Jin Rou said, "But there are only a few which have this kind of cold degree."
Indeed. It was already night there, and the temperature dropped into the worst possible point. In fact, Jin Rou could see that the sand was being frozen.
The Devil State had only one huge world. But the size of it was three times larger than the largest world of the multiverse. If Jin Rou wanted to travel around the places, it wouldn't be possible right now unless he had several months to spare.
After another hour passed, Jin Rou finally saw a dim light not faraway from him. He smiled and immediately rushed towards that place and saw a beautiful woman with a golden hair, curling up inside an energy ball.
The woman was so beautiful that everything around here would run away in shame. Her face was perfectly made just for her.
Jin Rou looked down and saw that this woman might have come from that black coffin. Jin Rou observed and touched it to find some clues. Too bad though, it didn't bear any results. But there was something he was sure of, the coffin and the woman was harmless. At least, for now.
"Buzz!" Jin Rou tried to touch the woman in attempt to pull her down, but the energy barrier reacted and gave various kinds of electric shocks.
Though it wouldn't hurt him, Jin Rou still decided to trace his hand back. Perhaps, this woman would wake up soon and he just needed to wait a little bit.
However, Jin Rou's alertness suddenly raised up high as he felt people coming this way. As a reaction, he hid his presence and waited for their arrival. With their footsteps, it sounded like they were in a rush as if their lives were on the line.
Finally, they arrived. A group of devils in armors came. All of them had a horn or two and they appeared very intimidating. Although they couldn't be compared to those generals of the late devil emperor, they were still very capable.
"You human." The commander of the group spoke with a deep voice, "You are quite bringing us so much trouble just to find you. Do you really think that just because you are protected by your coffin, we cannot do something about you?"
The words were filled with threat and Jin Rou's ears couldn't help but twitch for some reason.
"Now, don't pretend to feel asleep. I know you have already awaken." The commander demanded with such an imposing tone, "Stop giving us trouble and come back. You are treasure valued by our young master. We cannot afford to waste you."
"I have already told you that you all will never have my cooperation." Then suddenly, the eyes of the golden woman opened and spoke, "Unless you give more rights to my fellow humans here, there is nothing to be discussed."
"Lady, stop being imprudent. You know that you're asking for a big thing. It's not easy to raise the rights just because you say so. Furthermore, the young master has yet to have that kind of authority." The commander spout out words coldly. Basically speaking, he was denying the request once again.
Jin Rou realized that the humans here in this place must have a very low rights that this lady needed to go to such lengths just to achieve it.
"I know that he doesn't have that kind of authority. But his returned forefather has, don't you think?" The lady smiled.
"Preposterous! Who do you think you are to address the Forefather that way?" The commander was enraged, "Do you think that just because you are the prized treasure of our young master, I won't dare to hurt right now? Check your privilege, mere human."
"Oh, then you will dare?" The lady smirked and her golden long hair fluttered by the wind as she deactivated the barrier, "Come, then. I don't mind chopping your head off from your body to teach you bunch of devil bastards that I'm not easy to deal with. After all if I am, I'm not worthy being the owner of the Wistful Dark Coffin."
Wistful Dark Coffin! Jin Rou was surprised. No wonder the coffin was very familiar to him. It was actually the coffin that he had read in the legends. It was a treasure that the heavens had given to the cultivators around the multiverse.
The coffin boasted an impregnable defense that even peak gods couldn't easily break. Though the origins of the coffin was said to be from the heavens, a few existences knew that it wasn't the case. Anyway, it was a different topic from here, so let's just drop it.
The commander was gritting his teeth and trying to hold back his rage. He just said those words in order to threaten the lady, yet it seemed that it wasn't effective and bit him back. It was humiliating, but what could he do? Hurt her? That's impossible, unless he didn't want his life anymore.
"Why aren't you saying something?" The lady sneered, "I thought you're strong enough to hurt me that you keep on threatening me. Where is the confidence now? Ah, that's too bad. I thought you have guts yet it turned out that you don't even have the required balls to do so."
Hearing these words, the commander almost spat a mouthful of blood.
