The appearance of the guard in the black robe surprised Jenifer.
"Sir, is the inhabitant of the cave really just a child? How does he have the aura of a warrior at the upper-level of the Celestial God Realm?" Jenifer asked.
"We deliberately made the aura like that. We wanted him to live in peace," the man in the black robe said, his voice light.
He looked at the Rule Soul Avatar. "You're good. I didn't expect you to have Eyes of Law and see through it. You're quite a miracle."
The Rule Soul Avatar's expression did not change. Praises were meaningless to him. "Why are you here?" he asked.
The guard in the black robe was slightly dumbfounded at how straightforward the Rule Soul Avatar was.
"Nothing. I just wanted to thank you for letting that child go," said the guard in the black robe.
"Who is he?" The Rule Soul Avatar was curious. Who was this child? Why were they so concerned about his protection?
"A child of a supreme god," the guard said frankly.
Ideally, no one was allowed to reveal the identity of that child. However, the Rule Soul Avatar's actions blew his cover. People were now aware that there was no mighty warrior residing in the cave.
If someone tried to occupy the cave in the future, the child would be expelled.
It no longer mattered to hide the truth from the Rule Soul Avatar. The child would be transferred someplace else anyway.
Moreover, the leaders of the Cliff thought the Rule Soul Avatar was a supreme talent and might become a supreme god one day. They intended to let the Rule Soul Avatar take care of the child. There was no need to hide the child's identity.
"What? How is this possible?" Jenifer was completely shocked. How could there be a descendant of a supreme god in the abyss?
Besides, according to the Rule Soul Avatar, the boy looked rather silly without any cultivation base. He didn't seem to be the descendant of a supreme god.
The Rule Soul Avatar was also confused.
"Why not? This child was left behind when Supreme God Braxton died. He said that it was his child and hoped that someone in the Ancestral Land could help him take good care of him."
"The Ancestral Land? Isn't the Ancestral located outside the abyss? How did this child end up in the abyss?" Jenifer asked.
She seemed lost in thought for a few moments. "I heard from my father that the last supreme god, Supreme God Braxton, had died seven hundred thousand years ago. Since this child is one of his descendants, how could it be possible that he has not grown up yet?" Jenifer asked.
Seven hundred thousand years wasn't too long for strong warriors in the mortal worlds, nor for warriors in the Primitive Wilderness. But any child should have grown into an adult in such a period of time.
"We don't know. Maybe it has something to do with the bloodline... or we're missing something," said the man in the black robe.
"Tell me more about the Supreme God Realm." The Rule Soul Avatar was only concerned with the supreme gods. He had thought that the Superior God Realm held the strongest warriors.
"Supreme gods..." the man in the black robe said with a sigh.
"No one knows. However, compared to Defiant Masters from the other races, there are much fewer Defiant Masters from the human race.
But all of them have one thing in common. They are all very powerful. The weakest of them are still on par with warriors at the Superior God Realm. There were even many Defiant Masters who had surpassed the Superior God Realm and had gotten the chance to become a deputy god.
However, once a Defiant Master reaches the Deputy God Realm, he will have no choice but to be relentlessly suppressed by the chief gods," the man in the black robe said.
"I still remember that the Chaotic Hell was under the control of a Defiant Master who was at the Deputy God Realm. His strength was unparalleled. Even if the five supreme gods were living in the world, they might not be able to suppress him. It was said that he had even broken into the Kingdom of the Chief Gods. He tried to kill the chief gods and turn himself into a new and improved one. However, for some reason, he failed. After he escaped, he was suppressed by the angry chief gods. In the end, he couldn't escape death," said the man in the black robe.
The Rule Soul Avatar was silent. All the Defiant Masters mentioned by the man were very powerful, but his real body had become a Defiant Master before entering the Primitive Wilderness. The Rule Soul Avatar felt a strange feeling bubbling up his chest.
"Who is stronger, the Defiant Master in the Chaotic Hell or Supreme God Braxton?"
The Rule Soul Avatar thought about what the man had said. He figured that the Defiant Master in the Chaotic Hell and Supreme God Braxton must have existed in the same era. After all, Supreme God Braxton had only been dead for seven hundred thousand years.
"No one can answer such a question. Supreme God Braxton and the Defiant Master surnamed Chu have never actually met one another. It seems that they always miss the opportunity to do so." The man didn't know much about them.
Hearing this, the Rule Soul Avatar suddenly attained clarity.
The Defiant Master's surname was Chu. Chu!
"Was the Defiant Master in the Chaotic Hell really a descendant of the Chu Clan?" The Rule Soul Avatar was so excited. He had never felt this euphoric before.
