Athena was flabbergasted. Was she that obvious of what she\'s planning to do? Although she already lived for a long time, how could she outsmart an existence whose living was to see truths and lies? Emperor Randies was an adept businessman in the empire and many ancestors and big shots were trying to schedule business meetings with him.

"I don\'t think I can trust that person." Athena said with a grim tone, "I want to go meet my little sister already and yet he\'s taking his time here trying to save the world."

Athena might have been a child of heaven and earth, but she had no deep connections with this world. All she cared about was her little sister and she badly wanted to be with her now.

"And do you think you have a say here?" Emperor Randies sneered. He was looking at Athena like she was a little naive girl, "You think he\'s so young so you think you can outsmart him, but think again. Do you really think that you\'re still alive now because His Majesty hasn\'t noticed your schemes?"

Seeing the stupefied expression of Athena, Emperor Randies continued on, "You have to remember, His Majesty can even kill three laws at the same time and numerous Dao Supremes at that. If you\'re adamant on dying, fine, but don\'t drag your little sister here."

"What do you mean...?" Athena was horrified. She had already thought of myriad scenarios that scared the shit out of her.

"Do you really think that your little sister will not be affected if you do that?" Emperor Randies\' tone was fierce and cold, "His Majesty can kill your little sister if he isn\'t satisfied by killing you for your grave offense."

It was like a thunderclap which woke Athena up. Her daze was hopeless and almost filled with despair. She was about to commit a crime that might implicate her little sister. Fortunately, the emperor was nice enough to warn her.

Truth be told, she was scheming to get information from Jin Rou\'s mind. Although she didn\'t intend to harm His Majesty, it would be an act of intruding his privacy and it might cost her life. There\'s also a high chance that her little sister might be implicated because of her stupid action.

"I almost committed a grave sin." Athena had to admit it. She was so close by the death\'s door if not for the emperor giving her a warning. Although she already lived for so long now, she wasn\'t yet satisfied unless she see her little sister personally.

"It\'s good as long you understand." The emperor sighed, "His Majesty is very unpredictable, so it\'s better to be safe than sorry."

"Thank you for your kindness, Emperor Randies." Athena bowed sincerely at the emperor. She wasn\'t acting arrogant and spoiled as of now.

The emperor nodded and accepted the gesture, "Let\'s go. His Majesty is still waiting for us."

"Oh, so fast?" Jin Rou saw that two familiar figures were returning and smiled. It was almost an hour past yet they were already back.

"We fortunately passed by a store hidden to the public. It\'s selling all types of portal scrolls leading in all famous places, albeit it\'s very expensive." The emperor answered.

It wasn\'t a lie. The emperor purchased the portal scroll and truly from a hidden store. However, it was in the ore empire during his expedition a hundred thousand years ago. Furthermore, the price of this portal scroll which was leading to the Abandoned Grotto of Heaven was very very expensive that it almost emptied the emperor\'s pocket that time. He bought it out of whim since he had no use to the left money he had. Who would expect that he\'d have a use of it now?

Jin Rou looked at the portal scroll the emperor was holding. It was emitting a dangerous aura and said, "This aura of the scroll, does it mean to warn the user?"

"You\'re right, Your Majesty." Emperor Randies smiled, "The aura it\'s emitting is to make the user see the danger it has. For this portal scroll, the thick black aura means that the place where it\'s leading is absolutely dangerous."

"Dangerous or not, I still have to go there. But you two don\'t have to. You can just wait me here or by the outside of the grotto." Jin Rou said.

"It\'s been a while since I went to that place. I\'m very curious what it looks like right now, so allow me to accompany you, Your Majesty." The emperor said.

"Me too, Your Majesty." Athena also said the same thing.

The emperor was a supreme while Athena was on the same level as a Dao Supreme. So they wouldn\'t be burden to Jin Rou as they had their grand and perfected daos.

"Then let\'s go." Jin Rou said as he activated the portal scroll leading to that place.

The Abandoned Grotto of Heaven was said to be a heavenly grotto of the Creator in the past according to numerous speculations of Universal Laws. However, there was no one to prove this point and it remained a legend. The grotto had been here since the start of time, since the start of creation of chaos. Thus, no one knew the exact origin of the place.

As Jin Rou walked over this place. The heavy atmosphere was getting thicker and thicker. They were currently walking a place where not even plants would dare to step on. It seemed to be a paradise in the past, a grand one at that. By the several peaks, it looked like a falls of a distant time.

As they walked closer, thousand to hundred thousand or perhaps millions of bones could be seen. Judging by its appearance, it was there for at least a billion years ago. The place was giving a creepy feeling that Athena shuddered for the first time. She heard of this particular place and now that she\'s here, the information weren\'t exaggerated at all.

As they walked past more, several human comes could be seen lying on the ground. They still had their robes on them.. The emperor sighed as he recognized these people.
