Chapter 566: 566 Chapter 566: This Brat Is No Good Emperor Di glanced at Lin Mohan, signaling her not to speak. Lin Mohan moved her mouth, wanting to say something, but ultimately remained silent. Emperor Di spoke to Antares again, "Lord, do you agree to this deal?" He didn’t talk about any other relationship with Antares, just a deal. He knew very well that only deals could move Antares, nothing else. Antares said softly, "Do you know what it means for me to spare a bit of my will?" "I can’t interfere in human affairs. You should understand this rule." Emperor Di smiled, "I understand, but for Lord Antares, sparing a bit of will doesn’t count as interference. And I only hope that you can protect my disciple in times of danger." "As for how to protect, Lord certainly has many ways." A thoughtful look appeared in Antares’ eyes. How to protect was indeed a question. Eliminating enemies was protection, rescuing someone was also protection. As long as it didn’t take action itself, it wouldn’t count as interference. Antares stared at Emperor Di, "Have you really decided to go there?" Emperor Di nodded, "It’s about time. If I don’t go now, I won’t have another chance." Antares sighed, "Indeed, you’re almost 200 years old. If you don’t go now, you won’t have another chance. But even if you go, it’s still nine deaths and one life, the chance is slim!" "This is my destiny." Emperor Di emphasized the word destiny, as if making a life-or-death decision. Just as he said, he had to go. If he didn’t go now, there would be no chance. Even if it was nine deaths and one life, this was destiny. Antares made a sound of agreement, "I accept this deal. Give me the dragon pearl, and I’ll protect your disciple until she becomes a half-step super god." Emperor Di was overjoyed and immediately took out a box. Lin Mohan’s eyes showed shock. She had seen this box several times before. Usually Emperor Di treated it as a treasure, not even allowing her to touch it. When she asked what was in the box, Emperor Di’s answer was "life". At that time Lin Mohan didn’t understand, but now she did. What was inside was her life. It was something that could keep her alive. The box opened, revealing the dragon pearl inside. It looked like an unremarkable small bead, but Antares’ eyes showed desire. The dragon pearl flew out of the box and into Antares’ mouth, swallowed into its body. Antares’ body, larger than a mountain, trembled slightly. Violent vibrations spread through space. The entire space rippled like ocean waves, layer upon layer spreading out. The spatial waves blew over her body like wind. Lin Mohan felt her body being distorted. It was a completely out-of-control feeling, very uncomfortable. Lin Mohan was shocked in her heart. This being was too terrifying. If it wanted to kill her, it wouldn’t even need to move. Perhaps just a glance would be enough to kill her a thousand times over. "How can there be such a terrifying existence in the world." "How many more secrets are there in this world." Her eyes filled with shock. Antares’ existence exceeded her understanding. Since becoming Emperor Di’s disciple, as the human race’s only half-step super god, Emperor Di had a private library. Although its collection wasn’t as rich as the royal secret library, it contained some knowledge that even the royal secret library didn’t have. Some things could only be known after reaching a certain height. Emperor Di was currently the only one in the human race to reach that height. Combined with Emperor Di’s personal teachings, Lin Mohan knew a great many things, more than imaginable. In these few years, Emperor Di had stuffed a large amount of knowledge, useful and useless, into Lin Mohan all at once. He had been somewhat anxious from beginning to end. Lin Mohan didn’t understand why he was in such a hurry, but now she finally understood a bit. Her teacher was leaving, going to a place where he had only one chance in ten of surviving. Emperor Di said to Lin Mohan, "Once your teacher leaves, there’s a 90% chance I won’t return. You must work hard to reach half-step super god." "The human race can’t be without a half-step super god. Fortunately Jiang Yi is about to be resurrected. I can sense his soul." "With Lord Antares’ protection, your safety should be fine." Emperor Di’s voice carried sighs and kindness. In these short few years, he had truly taught everything without reserve. Antares fully absorbed and merged with the dragon pearl, finally turning its gaze to Lin Mohan. To it, Lin Mohan was too insignificant and had never been noticed before. Now its gaze showed a hint of surprise. Then Antares suddenly brought its head close, its huge nose sniffing at Lin Mohan. Each of its breaths was like a Category 5 hurricane, nearly blowing Lin Mohan off her feet. Lin Mohan didn’t dare move. Facing such a being, she knew her place. However, Lin Mohan wasn’t afraid. From the conversation between Emperor Di and Antares just now, Lin Mohan already knew that it had no ill intentions towards her. This lack of ill intent was because she was too insignificant to even enter its eyes. Antares’ voice sounded, "You have his scent on you." Lin Mohan was stunned. His scent? She couldn’t understand this sentence, and neither could Emperor Di. 𝒻𝑟𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝑛𝘰𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝘤𝘰𝘮 Antares spoke again, "What is your relationship with Lin Moyu?" Lin Mohan’s face looked strange. Why suddenly mention her brother? She said clearly, "Moyu is my brother." Antares made a long "oh" sound, "No wonder. No wonder you have the little Lin’s scent in your bloodline. So you’re actually siblings." Lin Mohan asked curiously, "Lord, you know Moyu?" Antares snorted, "Of course I know him. That brat is no good." Lin Mohan didn’t dare speak. If someone else had said this, she might have gotten angry, but now the one saying this was a being like Antares. She could only listen and let it go. Antares snorted twice, "That brat is full of tricks. You as his sister probably aren’t much better." "But both of your talents are not bad. The brat’s combat power is extremely strong, and you level up fast enough. Both are quite good." At this time, a illusory figure appeared in front of Antares. A transparent Antares only the size of a fist appeared in Lin Mohan’s vision. "This is a strand of my will. Usually it will be dormant, only awakening when you are in danger." "According to the deal, I will protect you, but I won’t kill for you." "So don’t disturb me normally." While cursing Lin Moyu, it still spared a bit of its will. Cursing was one thing, but the deal still had to be completed. Antares was very credible. A strand of will transformed into the transparent Antares, entering Lin Mohan’s spiritual world and falling into deep sleep. Seeing this, Emperor Di breathed a sigh of relief, "Thank you, Lord Antares." Antares snorted, "This is just a deal between us. Don’t think I don’t know that you kept the dragon pearl hidden for a hundred years." "Although a hundred years is just a nap for me, I don’t like your behavior." "But forget it. We probably won’t see each other again. Let bygones be bygones. I won’t hold it against you this time." Emperor Di smiled apologetically. Although Antares’ words were unpleasant to hear, he didn’t dare refute. Moreover, what Antares said was true. No matter the outcome of this journey, whether life or death, he would never return. Lin Mohan’s eyes were full of reluctance, and her heart was even more worried, "Teacher, is there no other way?" Emperor Di shook his head, "No, this step, your teacher must take." Antares said softly, "Going means nine deaths and one life. Not going means certain death." Emperor Di was already 200 years old, nearing his end. If he didn’t take this gamble now, he would never have another chance. Rather than lingering on, he had to make one last attempt before hope completely disappeared. Lin Mohan’s eyes were moist with tears, not knowing what to say. Emperor Di smiled calmly, "Don’t cry. You’re a god-level expert now. How can a god-level expert shed tears?" "Although this journey is nine deaths and one life, it’s not without hope." "Perhaps in the future, when you reach super god, you may see your teacher again." "In my cultivation room, under the stone table is a box. You can open it when you reach half-step super god. Inside is the greatest secret of this world." At this time, Antares snorted lightly again, "You humans always like to hide things. It’s the same now as it was in the last era." "Why can’t you just speak plainly? Doing this and that is so troublesome." Emperor Di smiled, "You wouldn’t understand." At this moment, he let go of everything, his aura becoming calm and serene, "Finally, may I trouble Lord Antares to send me off?" Antares said, "Since you’re about to die, I’ll send you off then." As the words fell, a space-time passage suddenly appeared beside Emperor Di. Emperor Di smiled and bowed to Antares, "Thank you, Lord. We’ll meet again if fate allows." "Get lost." Emperor Di didn’t linger any longer and stepped into the space-time passage. "Teacher!" Lin Mohan’s tears could no longer be held back. The memories of the past three years flooded her heart. Emperor Di had taught her wholeheartedly and to the best of his ability. She never expected to part ways here in the end.
