The Tale of the Void Emperor

Chapter 528: Pitiful Melker.

"It looks like there is only one way left...," Melker muttered before he looked at Elk and cupped his bloody fist, "Lady Elk, is Mr. Horeinsen here or in upper-Chaosverse? If he is here, then can you please call him?"

"He is here," Elk nodded indifferently as she took out a contact card and started speaking with someone.

After a minute, she looked at Melker and said, "His price is fourteen...Gincan roots."

Melker didn\'t even bat his eyes and nodded, "No problem."

1 Gincar root cost five hundred thousand high-grade chaos stones, but the thing is...they are very scarce as there\'s no market of them. Naturally, Melker has some in his possession, and that\'s why Mr. Horeinsen asked for that price.

After an hour...A man with a strange appearance arrived in the hall.

Strange appearance because this man wore fist-sized white beads with brown patterns around his neck while he wore an oversized brown robe.

His hands and legs were not even visible due to his clothes, hidden inside the oversized sleeves.

After arriving in the hall, he sat down on the couch and took out a giant glowing white orb with blue sparks as it hovered in front of him.

After doing that, he looked at Melker and grinned, "You know how I operate. Half price first and another half after I complete the task."

Melker nodded as he waved his hands and took out a jade box that gave off hot energy from it.

"This box has fourteen Gincan roots," Melker spoke indifferently as he waved his hand as the box flew towards Mr. Horeinsen.

Mr. Horeinsen opened the box and saw dark blue, glowing roots with emerald spots on them and nodded as he put the box to the side and looked at Melker, "Give me your son\'s soul slips or anything that has your sons\' aura in it."

Melker nodded as he took out his son\'s broken soul slips and gave them to Mr. Horeinsen.

Mr. Horeinsen took the slip without touching them as he just covered them with his order force and brought them towards the glowing orb on the table.

After that, he did something, and the soul slips disappeared into the glowing orb.

He then put his hand over the glowing orb and closed his eyes as his body started releasing glowing dark blue sparks that started revolving around him.

...

At the Music Valley, Athan and others were sitting on a mystical wood mattress with blooming flowers around them.

Their eyes were closed with a peaceful expression on their faces as they trained.

Athan was inside Miz-Lu Enchanted Kingdon\'s source chaotic world as he comprehended its zen order sets.

Tiana, Avelia, Sen, Linci, and others were also comprehending order methods and order techniques.

While listening to the music, their training speed had increased by a lot, and they were making rapid progress.

At this time, Primo was also flying around Athan and others with his eyes closed while enjoying the music, \'Nyaaa, this is good and comfortable. I should tell Master to have some music influence so a musical voidling can be born in that realm.\'

Primo was flying with the rhythm of the music, so he was actually dancing while flying.

But suddenly, Primo stopped as its ear perked up and dashed to Athan\'s side in an instant.

"Shaaaaaa...," Primo hissed as he felt someone trying to make a connection with Athan but failed in that.

Primo closed its eyes to sense before its eyes revealed a grin, "Nyaaa! Trying to peek into my Master? Humph, I\'ll let you peek at something else."

Primo then forcefully connected that strange thing and let it peek into his power.

...

Elk, Lenek, and Melker watched Mr. Horeinsen as he was using power to search for a person who might have any recent connection with Nelker and Zelker using their soul aura.

But he couldn\'t pinpoint it at all, \'Strange...Unless this person is not in lower-Chaosverse anymore, I should be able to find him.\'

Suddenly, he sensed something and became happy as a smile started to form on his face.

Alas, before that smile could fully form, it froze.

Elk, Lenek, and Melker saw Mr. Horeinsen suddenly trembling. The trembling increased with every mini-second, and after a few seconds...

*Kacha...*

*Puchi....*

The glowing orb cracked while Mr. Horeinsen spurted a mouthful of blood.

He opened his eyes that revealed primal fear as he started taking deep breaths to calm himself.

Seeing such state of Mr. Horeinsen, Leken, Melker, and Elk were clearly shocked.

Mr. Horeinsen was a peak Evagon-realm powerhouse! But why did he spurt blood when using his own power?

They could clearly capture the fear in his eyes as well.

Elk felt that this matter of Melker had just gone up several levels. She had never seen Mr. Horeinsen injured and seen such fear in his eyes before.

He shouldn\'t feel those things in this lower-Chaosverse.

Melker\'s indifferent face finally changed as he showed a grim expression for the first time. His body had shown his anger, but his face had remained indifferent, but that changed because he also knew what that blood spurt from Mr. Horeinsen entrailed.

Nobody spoke as they waited for Mr. Horeinsen to regain his bearing, which he did after five minutes.

But...fear was still visible in his eyes.

Looking at Melker, he sighed and said, "Forget this matter."

"What happened, Mr. Horeinsen? As far as I am aware, I\'ve never seen you in such a state before when performing your art." Elk asked with a voice that contained curiosity.

"Mr. Horeinsen. Did you find the culprit or not? Even if he is too powerful for the current me, I still want to know!" Melker said with a deep voice while his expression turned dark.

"Melker...," Mr. Horeinsen shook his head as a wry smile formed on his face, "I don\'t know what I encountered. I don\'t even know how to describe it...sigh," He then gave back the box of Gincan roots to Melker.

A pitiful look surfaced on his face as he looked at Melker and said, "You should know that I have gone to upper-Chaosverse many times and met existences at Chaos King-realm."

Melker had a bad feeling welling up inside, but he still nodded as Mr. Horeinsen continued with a deep voice, "Although I don\'t know the full extent of the power of Chaos King-realm powerhouses but...what I felt just now was...even more, terrifying than that.

"Those pair of beastly blue eyes..."-Horeinsen once again showed that deep fear in his eyes-,"Those overbearing eyes didn\'t even look at me like how we would look at ants! I felt unsurmountable power from those eyes! Melker...I pity you, for you will not be able to have your revenge, and as such, I don\'t want any of these Gincan roots."

After saying that, Mr. Horeinsen stood up and left while Melker stood there with a stunned expression on his face.

Elk sighed as she looked at Melker with pity and left with worry lingering in her heart. She thought that why such a fearsome existence arrived in lower-Chaosverse? With how Mr. Horeinsen described it, such a horrifying entity might also be able to destroy this whole place if it wills it.

The first thing her instinct pointed was the strange young man that even she failed to see through, \'Fu said that he was at Orderic Catastrophe and the aura he gave off also indicated similar thing...but something is strange about him.\'

Shaking her head, she decided, \'It\'s better to not mess with unknown things. That\'s the first rule to remain safe.\'
