The Tale of the Void Emperor

"Now, take out everything you have, and we will not kill you. After taking out all valuable things, you have to swear an oath that you indeed took out all things and didn\'t keep anything."

Hearing that, Jourgan sighed and turned to Athan, "Let\'s do as they say. Sometimes, we have to back away in the face of greater trouble."

However, Athan didn\'t look at him and looked at the four people in front of him with a faint smile and took out Neo-vortex flower, "How valuable is this?"

Looking at the flower, all four people\'s eyes turned straight, and greed clearly became visible, "Neo-vortex flower!"

All of them were at the peak of Evagon-realm, and that flower could indeed increase their chance to breakthrough! That was a rare flower that was always in demand but never in stock.

However, Athan put that flower inside his void region after showing it for a brief moment and sending a sound transmission to Jourgan, "Run, this is my order!"

Jourgan was stunned. As he had sworn oath, he was not supposed to abandon Athan even in his death, but since Athan ordered him, then he had no choice as he flew back!

Seeing him run away, one of the men in the enemy group was about to attack, but Athan\'s words stopped him.

"Leave him alone, or I will destroy the Neo-vortex flower."

The man stopped, but he looked at Athan and sneered, "You think we will wait here until he calls reinforcements? Dream on!"

Yoha, one of the two ladies in the group, said indifferently to Athan, "I will give you ten minutes. Take out all your valuable things, including the Neo-vortex flower."

Athan looked at them interestingly and said, "Are you from upper-Chaosverse? You four seem to be from the same famil-"

"Kid! Cut the crap and do as we say if you don\'t want to die," Foujir, one of the two men, spoke with slight anger. He was confused as to why Athan didn\'t display the slightest of fear in front of them.

The four of them found Athan strange because he was constantly injured by the chaotic atmosphere but wasn\'t even fazed by it.

"You want to kill me? hahaha, go ahead," Athan said with a grin, "However, the moment you display intention to attack and kill me, I will destroy Neo-vortex flower as well."

"But...," With a playful smile, Athan continued, "That one flower can only help one of you. But I have a better deal that can help all four of you, and it\'s even better than Neo-vortex flower."

Hearing that, the four of them visibly flinched and looked at each other with doubt, \'What is this madman saying?\'

The four of them were from the Starling Deamon clan that is affiliated with the House of Vora organization. The Starling Deamon clan is actually powerful. They even have a saint-level powerhouse, but the four of them and their families are just side-branch people with little authority and resources since they are nothing special. As per rule, they joined the House of Vora organization and can only hope to rise while working hard and risking their lives.

\'Let\'s hear about his deal. If it turns out to be bull shit, we will have to use the rough way to get the flower. At least one of us can have an increased chance to breakthrough.\'

After discussing for a few moments, Yoha looked at Athan and asked, "What\'s your deal?"

Hearing that, Athan nodded with a faint smile, "Before I talk about the deal that will guarantee your breakthrough to Chaos King realm, I want to ask you some questions."

Yoha frowned before speaking coldly, "Tamiril and Gouken, create several powerful barriers around us and use that artifact as well so that if the reinforcement of several peak-evagon realm powerhouses arrives, we can still stop them outside for an hour."

"Hahaha, you don\'t need to bother because even though I have some people with me, only one of them is at the peak of Evagon-realm, and they are too far from this location," Athan laughed and said.

\'Master, what are you planning?\' Primo sat on Athan\'s shoulder and asked curiously.

\'Just making some pawns that I can use for my plan after I go upper-Chaosverse. If they prove to be useful, I will make them my underlings,\' Athan carefreely spoke. Naturally, he was not sure they were from the upper-chaosverse but assumed they were for now before asking the questions.

Naturally, Yoha, Fourjir, Tamiril, and Gouken couldn\'t hear the telepathic conversation between Primo and Athan. They also couldn\'t see Primo since Primo didn\'t allow it.

"Start asking. You have ten minutes," Yoha spoke coldly.

"First, are you all from upper-chaosverse?" Athan asked.

"Humph, we are from upper-chaosverse, and the organization we are in is even stronger than Chaos Monolith Hills. Our clan is known as the Starling Deamon clan, and the clan head is a saint-realm being," Yoha finished speaking about her background before she sneered, "Now that you know our background, you should tell us the so-called deal and if the deal was just bull shit that you came up with then obediently give us the neo-vortex flower."

Athan nodded with a grin, "I am not kidding about the deal that can let you break through easily. Let me prove it to you."

After saying that, Athan took an oath that he indeed had a way to let them break through easily and proved to them.

"As you can see, I was not attacked by chaosverse, so I am not lying about the deal."

Yoha and the other four looked at each other in shock, \'T-this...What kind of things he has that can guarantee a breakthrough to Chaos King-realm?\'

Seeing their reaction, Athan smirked, \'The fish has taken the bait.. Now I have to pull them slowly and put them in the bucket.\'
