Beast EMPEROR

In a blink of an eye, ten years already passed. In the Realm Of No Return, warriors in the Earth Realm seemed to be searching for someone. "Search carefully, if he's not alive then surely his corpse must be lying somewhere around here!" shouted someone wearing silvery shining armour. It was One, His Majesty's personal guard. His Majesty sent him here to look for Lu Zhen and if possible, retrieve his corpse if he died. 

"Leader, I think we found something!" one of the warriors quickly reported. One nodded and followed the warrior. They walked for about two hours before they arrived at their destination. In front of them was a huge ink black hole with an eerie cold and terrifying aura, all the warriors as well as One felt like they were looking at the depths of hell. 

Also, their divine sense was stopped by something from prying into the hole. The hole place was dead silent. "I am His Majesty's first knight, His Majesty has instructed me to receive Sire. I hope Sire won't take offense and we'd like Sire to follow us back to the kingdom!" One shouted at the top of his lungs, he was also very respectful of Lu Zhen to the point of even referring to him as Sire. He was literally putting Lu Zhen in the same position as His Majesty the King. 

There was no response from Lu Zhen, since they weren't in a hurry, they waited for a while but still nothing. They were even thinking that this was Lu Zhen's burial ground. One of the warriors took a peek inside the hole and saw a red dot that was slowly approaching. "Leader... something is coming!" he reported. 

Just as everyone was about to take a look.

Swoosh! 

A man with two red ibex goat horns floated mid air, his muscles were refined to the extreme and his body was filled with vitality, red scales covered his bulky body and his wings stopped burning, his face looked like it was made from the finest jade, his blood red hair fluttered in the wind. It was Lu Zhen of course, his aura was also refined, it was no longer domineering. His aura was now elegant and noble, it was deeper than the depths of the ocean and as tranquil as a still lake. His blood eyes felt like they were looking down on everything, as if nothing could catch their attention. 

He slowly descended until his feet touched the ground. Immediately, his entire body changed, his blood red hair was replaced by pitch black abyss like hair, the red scales disappeared and were replaced by silky smooth baby like skin, his features more stunning than those of immortals, his vitality was terrifying to the extreme. He didn't emit any aura and his eyes were closed. The chain tattoos all over his body were more lifelike and seemed to be moving on their own. "Clothes"

His voice seemed to affect the soul because everyone was in trance. He was not in a hurry, they gave him clothes after a while. "Lead the way," he said. A carriage was prepared for him and he entered.

One couldn't help but feel that Lu Zhen was somewhat different, his bearing and charisma was nowhere to be seen and he wondered why Lu Zhen kept his eyes shut the whole time. They soon reached their destination, Lu Zhen was then invited to the Palace. Inside the Palace, His Majesty and Her Highness were chatting, "It's a shame that he didn't die in the Realm Of No Return but worry not Husband, we shall end his life today!" said Her Highness dejectedly.

An old man was sitting in His Majesty's seat and his wife was sitting on the old man's lap and they were flirting. The eleven knights had nothing to say since they knew just how terrifying this old man was, even His Majesty feared the old man.

His Majesty kept wondering if this was really okay, he felt that things wouldn't go as planned. "My love, please reconsider. Lu Zhen is not a simple person, please reconsider."

Although the old man was terrifying, in his eyes, he was a far cry when compared to Lu Zhen, they were incomparable in fact. 

"Shut up! Who gave you permission to speak? And don't you dare call me your love, things have ended between us and he..." she pointed at the old man, "He is better than you in every way." his wife had left him for another man, this was not uncommon in beast tribes and kingdoms. The strong preyed on the weak and women naturally loved strong men because they felt safe and gained respect. His Majesty was hurt but he could do nothing. 

"Mo Jin, just watch how my husband kills Lu Zhen. Tell him hubby." 

The old man finally spoke, his voice was quite a surprise, it didn't sound old,it sounded like that of a healthy middle aged man. "I'll break all the bones in his body, suck all the blood in his body and refine his corpse into a puppet."

"Really! I'd love to see you try!" a voice resounded throughout the throne room as the doors were slowly pushed open. Lu Zhen entered the throne room, his pure white sparkling teeth were visible for everyone to see. "Old man, why don't you try breaking my bones." said Lu Zhen excitedly. 

Beads of sweat slowly formed on the old man's forehead. The more he looked at the young man who didn't exude an aura and looked ordinary, the more he became afraid. The old man's cultivation was at the peak of the King Realm, there weren't a lot of things or people who could threaten his life but right now, his instincts were telling him to run away. Yes, they were telling him to run as far as his legs could carry him. His blood, soul and everything seemed afraid of Lu Zhen. 

"I...uhm...forgive me for my insolence, Sire. My old eyes were blind to not recognise Mount Tai." the old man was on his knees and he slammed his head on the ground like a woodpecker, he pleaded for mercy. Everyone was gobsmacked by these results. 

Lu Zhen seemed to have been looking forward to the old man breaking his bones because he stopped smiling the minute the old man begged for mercy, he also looked a bit annoyed. "Husband, why are you begging for forgiveness? He's the Lu Zhen I told you about, hurry up and deal with him." Her Highness was also annoyed by the old man's act; she wanted Lu Zhen dead. "Shut up!" the old man sent her flying with a slap. He then continued begging for mercy.

Lu Zhen looked irritated as he slowly opened his eyes, the temperature in the room suddenly plummeted as terrifying pressure pressed down on everyone, especially the old man. Lu Zhen's eyes were terrifying pitch black without any white, a lion seemed to be lying dormant within his eyes.

Everyone was shaking in fear as they knelt, this pressure seemed stronger than that of the crimson clouds. The old man felt as if the world was weighing down on him. Lu Zhen coldly said, "I'D LIKE TO SEE YOU BREAK MY BONES!"
