"Sirs, you've misunderstood! Emory was not killed by the three Lords of Darkness!
A fire source beast ended his life!"
Solomon said through his gritted teeth.
"What?
He was killed by a fire source beast?
Is there a fire source beast in our Absolute Space Sea?
From my understanding, they are ancient, legendary beasts and they seldom make appearances.
How did you manage to provoke a fire source beast?"
one of the old lords asked, frowning with suspicion.
"Just wait. Listen to what I have to say, sirs. It all has to do with a young man named Austin,"
Solomon continued.
Then he proceeded to tell them everything that had happened in detail.
The retelling included how the Time Chamber Sect had a feud with Austin, how they had sent people to
hunt and kill him, how Austin had escaped into the Eight Fires Valley, how the fire source beast had
helped Austin, and how the beast had killed Emory.
"Now it makes sense!"
Every single one of the four old lords' faces had darkened after they heard what Solomon had said.
"Does it?
How could a mere governing god overpower our Time Chamber Sect? It's so humiliating!
He destroyed so many of our strongholds and killed our people, including a leader!"
Even though they hadn't been there, all the old lords were simmering with rage.
The Time Chamber Sect had suffered a great loss during their battle with Austin!
And Austin had been all alone.
He was just a young man. Until now, he had been safe and sound, but he had angered the Time
Chamber Sect beyond belief.
How could they not want revenge?
"Please punish us, sirs!
It's all our fault.
We brought dishonor and disgrace to the Time Chamber Sect."
The eight leaders had all felt their blistering anger, so they immediately knelt down and begged for
mercy.
"Get up, all of you!"
an old lord demanded, waving his hand and forcing them upright.
"It's not your fault. The three Lords of Darkness weren't even able to capture Austin or the fire source
beast. You are too weak to do anything about it.
And you were inside the Eight Fires Valley where the power of the eight sacred fires is the strongest.
The fire source beast would have had advanced strength in there.
You had no chance of defeating him.
What matters is where Austin and the fire source beast are now,"
one of the old lords explained.
"Sir, we've received news that the fire source beast managed to escape into a Fiery Eye of that valley
when the three Lords of Darkness were chasing him.
No one has seen him since.
As for Austin, we know he's left the Eight Fires Valley,"
Solomon replied.
"I know where Austin is. He is with Winston the White Emperor.
Austin is his new disciple.
Not long ago, I was chasing the both of them, trying to kill them, but they got away.
Now, I've sent a large number of people to search for them in the Absolute Space Sea,"
Bartholomew chimed in, stepping forward.
"Is Austin really the successor of the reincarnation race?"
one of them asked, changing the topic.
"Yes. The rumors are true. As far as I know, he has collected many pieces of the road of reincarnation.
In addition to Austin, there have been more successors in the Absolute Space Sea over the years,"
Solomon answered.
"It seems that the reincarnation race is also trying to rise in the Absolute Space Sea.
Their ambition can't be concealed!"
one of the old lords exclaimed.
"That means that a terrible war will break out between the reincarnation race and the darkness race
soon!
It will turn the whole Absolute Space Sea into chaos.
It will be a huge disaster!"
another old lord exclaimed.
"A war?"
The eight leaders had never stopped to consider the possibility.
The darkness race was currently the most powerful force in the Absolute Space Sea. The reincarnation
race only had a few active members and was rarely seen.
With their overall strength, they would never defeat the darkness race!
"Sirs, the darkness race has three Lords of Darkness in charge. They are the first-class force in the
Absolute Space Sea.
The reincarnation race is so weak. How could it possibly wage a war with the darkness race? There's
not a chance that they will gain anything from it!
Austin is one of its few young successors.
Although some of them are relatively difficult to deal with, they can't rise again.
There's no reason to worry about a war,"
Benicio said.
"There are many things you don't know.
Although the reincarnation race was defeated in the last war, it did not sulk away to die.
A considerable part of their strength has been preserved. They have kept themselves secret for a
reason over all these years.
They have been training their successors over the years, and they had already trained a large number
of them.
Austin is only one of them.
There are still many successors that we haven't seen yet.
More importantly, the three Lords of Reincarnation are still alive. If they return too, the reincarnation
race could easily rise once more.
Of course, it still won't be as strong as the darkness race.
If the war started right now, they couldn't win it.
However, the reincarnation race could shock everybody once it reaches its full strength.
At that time, there will be a fierce battle among the forces,"
one of the lords said.
"What? Sir,
the three Lords of Reincarnation are still alive?"
The eight leaders were shocked into silence by this news.
If it were to get out, the entire Absolute Space Sea would lose its mind.
If those three were still alive, then the reincarnation race may be able to rise again!
"Yes. They are still alive.
And I believe that they will come back sooner or later,"
one of the lords said, nodding slowly.
