"No matter how long the story is, there will be a day when it ends …"
Standing there and looking at Tarilu, who had a bitter smile on her face, Chen Heng smiled and said, "Coincidentally, I have a lot of time right now, so I can slowly listen to your story."
His words were quite soft and did not give off a powerful sense of pressure, but the meaning behind his words was unquestionable.
Chen Heng was indeed quite curious about Tarilu's background.
Phillip had Delia's past in his memories, but he did not have Tarilu's past.
In Phillip's memories, he only knew that Tarilu also had some things on her back, and she seemed to have a powerful enemy.
At the beginning, they had similar goals, which was why they had entered the King's Historical Remnant together to search for legacies.
However, as time passed, Tarilu became more and more low-key and did not take the initiative to reveal her past.
As time went on, Phillip forgot about this and did not pay much attention to it.
This was quite normal.
After all, back then, they were the most powerful group of people in the entire Hechi Star system. They all had large amounts of resources and wealth, so they naturally did not care about the past.
Only now did Chen Heng realize that things were not so simple.
At the very least, with Tarilu's current strength, someone who could make even her feel such fear would not be simple.
Thinking to there, Chen Heng looked at Tarilu with interest and a look of anticipation in his eyes.
"I once came from the Alliance."
Under Chen Heng's gaze, Tarilu hesitated for a moment before saying, "My family is the royal family of a Federation Kingdom within the Alliance.
I was originally a Princess of that kingdom … "
"A Federation Princess?"
Chen Heng looked at Tarilu, feeling quite surprised.
Chen Heng naturally knew about the so-called Alliance.
It was a faction formed from many small factions. Even though it could not compare to a massive faction like the Round Table Alliance, it was still quite powerful, and no one dared to offend it.
Chen Heng could be counted as someone from the Alliance.
This was because the Chica Federation he came from was also considered a member of the Alliance and an allied country.
"Before the age of twenty, I lived in my own country, enjoying the best things."
In front of him, Talilu continued, "But on my twentieth birthday, everything changed …"
"A spear descended from the sky, destroying my country, piercing through my star, destroying everything."
"After that, my home was completely destroyed … My family was annihilated, and I was the only one who escaped …"
"Who are they?"
Standing there, Chen Heng frowned and felt quite surprised.
Tarilu's description was a bit scary.
According to him, the invading enemy had single-handedly destroyed the country he was in and even destroyed a planet.
With such strength, he must be an extremely terrifying expert.
Destroying a kingdom and slaughtering its royal family was something that Chen Heng could do now.
As long as there was no corresponding powerhouse to stop him, a Fifth Order expert was enough to accomplish these things.
However, it was far from easy to destroy a star and everything on it.
At the very least, it was impossible for a Grade Five to do so.
Only someone who was at least Stage 6 would be able to do such a thing.
However, there was another problem.
Just why would such an expert attack Talilu's family?
"I don't know who it is …"
In front of Chen Heng, Talilu seemed to have fallen into some terrifying memory, and even his body slightly trembled.
"When it happened, my father and mother did their best to resist.
"However, it was useless.
"That mysterious person was too powerful. No matter who stood in front of him, they would be pierced through by that spear.
"From the beginning to the end, that person did not appear at all. There was only a spear that pierced through everything and destroyed the star I was in …"
In front of Chen Heng, Talilu gave a bitter smile, "That terrifying feeling of powerlessness made one feel despair …"
"That person did not even appear, yet he destroyed a star …"
Chen Heng frowned, and his evaluation of that mysterious existence continued to rise.
He didn't even have to show himself to destroy a star. He was able to do this with just a weapon.
That person was most likely one of the most powerful existences within Stage 6.
"After that, I came to the Hermit Star, and just like you know, I entered the King's Historical Remnant to adventure and obtain power …"
Standing there, Talilu gave a bitter smile, "I am the last member of the Tam family. If that person knew that I was still alive, he definitely would not let me off."
Hearing these words, Chen Heng did not say anything.
From how he saw it, to an ant of that level, Talilu was just like an ant. As long as he did not go up to that person, how could that person come to find him?
The fact that Talilu had lived peacefully for the past 100 or so years proved this.
Obviously, that person either didn't know of Tarilu's existence or directly disregarded her and didn't take her seriously at all.
Following this, Talilu told Chen Heng some things.
Back when she had entered the King's Historical Remnant, she had not relied on luck like Phillip and Talilu.
Compared to Phillip and Talilu, Talilu had long since learned some secrets from her family, so she had some understanding of the King's Historical Remnant.
It was because of this that she had gained the most from the King's Historical Remnant.
"In my family, the legend of the Black King has always been passed down …"
Facing Chen Heng's gaze, Talilu said honestly, "It is said that my ancestor was one of the Black King's followers.
"As such, I know some of the secrets of the Black King's Historical Remnant, and I even have a keepsake that allows someone to obtain a portion of the Black King's legacy.
"Also, the person who destroyed my family back then should have come for this."
"Back then, he took something from my family."
"Oh?"
Hearing this, Chen Heng felt quite interested and smiled, "What is it?"
"It is a supreme treasure of my family, and it is said that my ancestor obtained it from the Black King. It is our family's most important legacy …"
Talilu paused for a moment and said, "I'm not sure what it is exactly."
"I only know that it looks like a slab of stone from the outside."
Stone tablet …
Chen Heng's heart thumped and he instinctively looked up.
It came from the legendary King, and it was shaped like a stone tablet. Even such an expert would fight over it …
"Could it be … that thing?"
In that moment, many thoughts flashed through Chen Heng's mind, and he thought of one thing.
The Origin Stone Tablet.
The Origin Stone Tablet was something that Chen Heng had seen twice before.
However, in those two times, he had only seen a projection of the Origin Stone Tablet.
The real Origin Stone Tablet was most likely lying in some corner of this world or in the hands of some expert.
However, it was undoubtedly a top-tier treasure in this world, and no matter how much it was sought after, it would not be an exaggeration.
Could the stone tablet that Talilu's family had been in control of be one of the Origin Stone Tablets?
In that instant, Chen Heng thought to himself.
If it really was the Origin Stone Tablet, then it would not be strange for Talilu's family to suffer such a fate.
After all, in this world, the weak could not resist the strong.
Possessing a secret treasure that was far beyond one's own strength was a sin in itself.
It was not surprising that such a thing would happen.
"Over the past 100 or so years, I've been searching for information and clues …"
In front of Chen Heng, Talilu's voice continued to sound out.
In front of Chen Heng, she sighed and said softly, "After searching for 100 or so years, I've finally found some clues and guessed who the person who attacked back then was …
"If I'm not mistaken, the person who attacked my family and stole my family's treasure should be one of the Five Knights …"
Under Chen Heng's surprised gaze, Tarilu continued to speak and gave her answer.
"The Five Knights of the Round Table?"
Chen Heng looked at Talilu with a strange gaze, feeling quite surprised.
"That's right."
Talilu sighed, feeling quite surprised by Chen Heng's words, "You've heard of them before?"
"I've heard of them before."
Chen Heng smiled and looked at Talilu with a strange gaze.
He had never thought that Talilu's enemy would be someone he was familiar with.
Chen Heng could not forget that battle with the Scarlet Knight.
The Scarlet Knight was one of the Five Knights of the Round Table.
As for the other Knights, Chen Heng did not know who they were.
However, this did not matter too much.
According to the original trajectory of fate, as Lu Yao matured, she would continue to bump into the Five Knights of the Round Table and come into direct contact with them.
In the end, she would fight with them one by one.
Chen Heng had only met the Scarlet Knight once, but that might not be the case in the future.
"That's quite a coincidence."
Chen Heng smiled as he looked at Talilu's surprised gaze and said, "The Five Knights of the Round Table are quite famous; I've been looking forward to meeting them for a long time.
Do you regret it now? "
Looking at Chen Heng's expression, Talilu gave a self-mocking look, "I'm an Elder of the Red Lotus Association. Now that you've taken over the Red Lotus Association and become the Black King's successor, you will most likely be targeted by the Round Table in the future.
When that time comes … "
Looking at Chen Heng, she lightly sighed.
As for what she was going to say next, she did not say it.
It was not a good thing to go against the Roundtable Society.
The Round Table's influence in this world was enormous and tyrannical. It was absolutely unimaginable to the average person.
Judging from the situation back then, the other party's target was undoubtedly the Black King's inheritance.
Chen Heng had taken over the Red Lotus Association and become its leader, which meant that he had inherited the Black King's legacy. In the future, he would be targeted by them sooner or later.
When that time came, his outcome would be quite tragic.
However, what Talilu did not expect was that hearing her words, Chen Heng only smiled as if he did not feel nervous at all.
This sort of attitude made her feel quite surprised.
Over the past few years, she had been working hard to accumulate enough power to resist the Round Table for the future.
However, all the powerhouses who knew of the existence of the Round Table Meeting were fearful of it.
Not to mention joining Ta Rilu's faction, he didn't even dare to think about it if he really took action.
In the past, Talilu was used to this sort of reaction from others.
However, this was the first time she had seen someone act so calmly like Chen Heng.
"You … aren't you afraid?"
As such, she could not help but ask.
Chen Heng had only met the Scarlet Knight once, but that might not be the case in the future.
"It's quite a coincidence."
Chen Heng smiled and looked at Talilu's surprised gaze as he said, "The Five Knights of the Round Table are quite famous; I've been looking forward to it for a long time.
Do you regret it now? "
Looking at Chen Heng's expression, Talilu gave a self-mocking look, "I'm an Elder of the Red Lotus Association. Now that you've taken over the Red Lotus Association and become the Black King's successor, you will most likely be targeted by the Round Table in the future.
When that time comes … "
Looking at Chen Heng, she lightly sighed.
As for what she was going to say next, she did not say it out loud.
It was not a good thing to go against the Roundtable Society.
The Round Table's influence in this world was enormous and tyrannical. It was absolutely unimaginable to the average person.
Judging from the situation back then, the other party's target was undoubtedly the Black King's inheritance.
Chen Heng had taken over the Red Lotus Association and become its leader, which meant that he had inherited the Black King's legacy. Sooner or later, he would be targeted by the Round Table.
When that time came, he would most likely suffer a terrible fate.
However, what Talilu did not expect was that hearing her words, Chen Heng only smiled as if he did not feel nervous at all.
This sort of attitude made her feel quite surprised.
