Chapter 100 Finally meeting!
100 Finally meeting!
Rather he might just have been a mouse in the playing ground of the truly strong
Thinking of all these things, although Ye Tian didn't want to admit it but even though his rebirth had been successful, ever since he woke in in class that morning a few doubts had always been at the back of his mind
First off, the tower and the hidden transcendents along with other things like the soul world seed are things he had never heard off in his past life much less encountered
Not only that, but the starry sky beasts which he plundered the time and space attribute abilities from made he also a bit in doubt
After all, the universe as well as most of its powerhouses had survived for several thousands of not millions or billions of years
Giving all that time, Ye Tian didn't believe they wouldn't have discovered those beasts had such miraculous power and try to have it for themselves
In fact, the chances of there already being time travel were more probable in Ye Tians point of view than he being the first
And if that's the case then there can only two other scenarios at play
One, time travel had been discovered but those immortal beings or the universe will somehow put a blockade on the timeline stopping it from happening
If that was the case then he back then would have just been a fish who accidentally slipped through the net and successfully went back in time
Or two, he was let go to the past by some higher beings who were currently playing his life to their will
And if that was true, that meant everything he had done bother secretive and not had at least a fifty percent chance of being under those beings gazes
Truly bringing meaning to the saying "under the truly strong there are no secrets"
So now, Ye Tian thinking of all these things couldn't help but be lost in thought as he contemplated the meaning behind his rebirth and whether it had any meaning.
"Hey willow, so let's get this straight you're a branch of the potted plant owned by that terrifying figure located up there"
"Not only that but you don't have many memories on the figure nor your life at the time"
Clearing out his thoughts, Ye Tian asked the Willow as he wanted to confirm what he heard was right n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
And sure enough, without any hesitation the Willow once again confirmed his words by doubling down on his earlier statements
"Yes that's it, and if you don't have any other questions, then I'll give you Apollos item and let you two be on your way"
Grumbling angrily, it was obvious the Willow was not too happy about loosing the game earlier
In fact, if he had his way he wanted Ye Tian to leave his site as soon as possible
Unfortunately, contrary to his wished not only did Ye Tian not leave but he also proceeded to ask another question
"Sigh…, alrights that's enough of that, now onto the main reason I came here"
Taking a deep breath, Ye Tuan decided not to think too much about things and try to push forward
After all, so far things had been going according to plan and so what if he was a pawn in. Some higher beings hands
As long as all his plans were to succeed it would be to much for him to pinch said beings at willin the near future
So with that in mind, Ye Tian asked the question which he and Apollohad wanted to know the most
"Whats going on with Suzaku, has she escaped? And how's the situation with other prisoners beside her?"
"Are they working together? And how can suzaku have access to the outside world?"
Asking this, although normally a regular prisoner shouldn't be able to answer these questions
But let's not talk about the Willows questionable identity, but just the fact that he was the was the one incharge of meeting various guests at this point
Plus the fact he could play various games although with constraints made Ye Tian believe he might be some sort of floor guard or warden of sorts
After all it would be to unbelievable for such a prison to be run only buy those automatons and golems he had passed earlier
And sure enough, much within his expectation after hearing Ye Tians question the Willow kept quiet for a while before moving his branch a bit
"Here have this first"
Throwing Apollos necklace right at him, the Willow took a slight pause before speaking about Suzakus current situation
Obviously even he had to avoid some edges when dealing with her
"Suzaku…, you should be talking about "the one who is reborn from the ashes" also known as "the one who rises from the ashes" "
"Regarding her current situation, I can't tell you too much or she'll know, but from what I can sense the situation down there is definitely a bit abnormal"
Saying that he shook his branches as if to say '8i don't know, and I'm not messing with that crazy bird you check on it'
To which Ye Tian who had been expecting a proper answer couldn't help but have a headache
After all, according to the Willow he had to find out himself which made him staying here and asking anymore questions pointless
Thankfully, just as he was about to leave the Willow once again spoke up, only this time what he said was somewhat useful
*Swoop!*
"Here take is portal, it'll directly teleport you to the floor suzaku is on, not only that but if you say my name three times while you there it'll automatically teleport you out of the prison"
Saying this, the Willow broke off one of his branches which turned into a portal, along with which a name suddenly appeared in Ye Tians mind, obviously this was the willows real name
Seeing this, although he didn't know why the Willow was being so kind to him Ye Tian had no reason to refuse such kindness
After giving him a nod of thanks, Ye Tian handed Apollos jewel over to Ava to take care off, while he strapped the lyre tightly over his shoulder before heading deep into the portal
And as for the portal in itself being a trap? Sorry but the willow was still under oath making him unable to lie or harm him, if not as careful as he was there was no way that he would jump into such a portal
"Tsk… finally this damn oath is over!"
Sending Ye Tian away, the Willow couldn't help but sigh in relief as he felt the invisible shackles around him breakaway
It seemed with the disappearance of Ye Tian, his own side of the bargain had finally been completed
"However if that aura I sensed on him before was correct, then soul patriarch what the hell are you up to??"
Yes back when Ava spoke to Ye Tian, the Willow managed to catch a bit of her aura which was much like the soul patriarch who once dominated an aura
So thinking about it now, the Willow couldn't help but think that he was planning on making some sort of comeback
"Haha it seems that this era is going to be an interesting one, I might as well make my move!"
Saying this the Willows figure slowly faded in the background as if he was never there
............…..
Underground prison, 6th floor
As a prison know for housing the most dangerous of powerful of beings in the universe's existence, strangely enough it only had six floors with each floor being more dangerous than the other
Fortunately, thanks to the willows help Apollo and Ye Tian managed to make their way down to the sixth floor without encountering any danger of wasting time
"Hey human, we're here!"
"Although it's a bit far, but I can sense her however something feels a bit off about her aura"
Floating in the lyre beside Ye Tian, Apollo couldn't help but frown as he felt something was wrong
Unfortunately, perhaps it was because he was just a split and not the main body he couldn't quite put his finger on what it was making him unable to decide on whether to go forward or not
However Ye Tian beside him sensing his worry, quickly brushed it off
"Apollo relax, don't forget we can escape at anytime is something goes wrong thanks to the Willow"
"Right now what we need to do is solve suzaku and Su Lings issue so I can proceed with my plans in peace"
"No other variable can be tolerated!"
Saying this, with a face more serious than ever Ye Tian headed in the direction Apollo sensed the aura was coming from
However, what he really thought in his mind would only be known to him
And so in silence, with Ava floating in his mind, a lyre floating by his side carrying an annoying god and a world in his body
Ye Tian headed to what seemed like his biggest challenge yet since his rebirth
