The moment he pushed open the door, Lu Haoran felt an irresistible force of time wash over him.
Under the assault of time, his hair turned white instantly. The skin on his face withered and sagged. All his bodily functions aged.
Lu Haoran did not panic. He knew that this was the price he had to pay for playing the game with the Domain Master. He had lost 60 years of his life.
Even though his bodily functions had declined, the spiritual energy in his body was much stronger than before. It was as if he had gained 30 years of cultivation out of thin air.
'The increase in spiritual energy from killing the Locust Demon at the Locust God's ruin has been brought into the real world as well. '
Lu Haoran thought to himself. Then he felt a pang of regret. His speculation was confirmed. Since the increase in spiritual energy could be brought into the real world, then the cultivation method he bought from the market could be brought into the real world as well. However, due to the last second, he was unable to purchase it.
If he could get his hands on the Soul Tempering Meditation Manual, then the 60 years of his life would have been worth it!
He had no idea whether the 'game' arranged by the Domain Master had a save function or not. Even if he did save, he would not have the chance to load anymore. He only had 30 to 40 years of life left.
Glancing at the passing cars, Lu Haoran walked towards the van that was parked by the roadside.
Zhao Qingshi and the group of superhumans did not receive any orders so they did not rush to Lu Haoran's aid. They waited anxiously for him to approach.
"Bang."
Closing the door, Lu Haoran sat in the passenger seat. He did not speak to anyone. He lit up a cigarette and took a deep puff.
The group looked at this man who had aged 60 years in the span of an hour. They looked at each other. They wanted to ask but they did not know where to start.
In the end, Zhao Qingshi was the first to speak. He probed, "Minister Lu, how did you … age so much?"
"The existence that killed the Dog God is inside the internet café." Lu Haoran did not answer the question. He took a puff and told the group.
"We have underestimated him. He is not a superhuman but an ancient deity."
"What? An ancient deity?! "
Everyone was shocked, especially Zhao Qingshi. He never dreamed that an ancient god would appear in Dragon City!
He knew very well how terrifying the ancient gods were. They could easily destroy a city. If the ancient god attacked, how could the hundreds of thousands of residents of Dragon City survive?
"Yes, he is an ancient god," Lu Haoran repeated, as if to dispel everyone's doubts.
Amidst the lingering smoke, he narrowed his eyes slightly and recalled the head of the Domain Master that was shrouded in chaotic fog, as well as the two balls of flowing fire in his pupils that were brighter and hotter than the sun.
"Furthermore, his status is far higher than all the known ancient gods. Japan's Emperor Quake, India's Locust God, Fran's Black Dragon King, all the ancient gods are just his toys."
Toys?
The girl with wavy hair and the others were dumbfounded.
As everyone knew, the Ancient Gods were the most terrifying existences in the world. They had joined Transcendent for so many years, but they had never heard anyone use the word "toy" to describe the Ancient Gods.
Furthermore, this came from the Division Head's mouth. It was obvious how traumatized the Division Head was by the ancient god in the internet café!
Zhao Qingshi's hair stood on end, he felt like the sky was falling down on Dragon City.
'What the hell? Dragon City's Ancient God is so scary, this is bad! '
"Division Head Lu, then how should we deal with him?"
Zhao Qingshi asked. He was ready to evacuate all the residents of Dragon City.
Lu Haoran looked at him meaningfully and shook his head slowly. "We cannot destroy him."
When he first found out that the Domain Master was an ancient god, he had the same thought as Zhao Qingshi. The first thought that came to his mind was to destroy the Domain Master.
However, after boarding the plane, he realized that the Domain Master was an existence that was impossible to destroy. At least, with China's current power, they were no match for the Domain Master.
Even nuclear weapons would be useless because even space was under the Domain Master's control. Since the Domain Master could teleport him to the Locust God's ruin in an instant, he could also teleport him to any space.
In fact, Lu Haoran suddenly thought of an incomparably terrifying scene. Nuclear bombs that blotted out the sky and covered the earth were fired at Dragon City. Then, with a light flick of his finger, the positions of Dragon City and Kyoto were instantly switched!
Other than space, Lu Haoran believed that the Domain Master could even manipulate time. The 400,000-year-old dog god's carcass was proof.
"If we can't destroy him, then Dragon City can only wait for death?"
Zhao Qingshi widened his eyes in shock. This time, it was not the sky that was falling, it was the sky that was going to disappear!
Lu Haoran shook his head. "Don't worry, even though the Domain Master is scary, he can be communicated with. He has not shown any signs of harm … How long has this internet café been in operation?"
"15 years." Zhao Qingshi answered with the information he had gathered in the past hour.
"Has there been any change in ownership in the past 15 years?"
"No, the registered owner of this internet café is Liu Tianshan. He was born and raised in Dragon City. He has no parents or wife, his only family is his son, Liu Haoming."
"Liu Haoming?"
Lu Haoran was startled. He asked in a hurry, "Is it my Hao or Ri Tianhao?"
Zhao Qingshi was stunned. "Yes, it's your Hao."
Lu Haoran narrowed his eyes. He was reminded of the remark that the game system had for his name when he first entered the Locust God's ruin.
"Lowly ant, you think you deserve a 'Hao' in your name?"
Combined with the Domain Master's strange address of 'Uncle', he was almost one hundred percent sure that the Domain Master was Liu Haoming, Liu Tianshan's son.
Just the son was already so terrifying. As the father, what kind of inconceivable existence would Liu Tianshan be?
Lu Haoran's heart was alarmed. He told Zhao Qingshi sternly, "Use the shortest amount of time to find out everything about the father and son!"
"Yes, I have."
Zhao Qingshi used his actions to prove to Lu Haoran how efficient he was. He passed his phone to Lu Haoran.
In this modern society where technology was rapidly advancing, once the government wanted to investigate someone, they could easily find out everything about that person, no matter how big or small, that person could not hide from them.
Lu Haoran browsed through the information on his phone seriously. He didn't even have time to smoke his cigarette.
No matter how exciting a person's life was, it could only be recorded on a few pieces of paper. Soon, Lu Haoran finished browsing through the files on Liu Tianshan and his son.
After going through the files, Lu Haoran decided to reevaluate the Domain Master.
Their files were too normal, there was nothing abnormal about them. They were even more normal than a normal person!
