"Is everything now alright?" Xiu\'er asked Jin Rou as he saw him walking with the academy staffs. Though he was quite confident with Jin Rou\'s power, he was told that the enemy was a 12 laws true god.

Everyone in the academy was told to evacuate to a safe place and wait there for further instructions. If no one from the academy came, after several hours, they were asked to leave immediately with all their might.

But now, it was unnecessary as the enemy wasn\'t successful in their mission.

"Yes, everything is fine." Jin Rou patted the child\'s hair and said, "I already settled it so you don\'t have to worry about anything."

Hearing this, Xiu\'er was instantly relieved. But it was still within his expectations. After all, he was talking about Jin Rou here, a person who could all the the beliefs.

Jin Rou talked for a while with Xiu\'er before bidding his goodbye, saying that he would need to take care of something else. The child nodded and took his good night sleep. The classes would resume tomorrow, immediately. So he needed to rest as much as he could right now.

Jin Rou and the Reverend Ancestor walked side to side in the deepest part of the academy. There was no light there so one should accommodate themselves by using their own light.

The underground passage was giving an eerie and uncomfortable feeling for a person. Even like the ancestor could still feel a bit of a creeping fear crawling under her skin.

Next, they reached a large twin door made of metal. It looked like it was created by using the finest materials and metals available in this world.

"Friend, we have arrived." The ancestor was still recuperating, so she didn\'t use too much energy, "This is the place where the most treasured item of the academy is placed."

Jin Rou helped the academy because of a debt he needed to pay to Teacher Song. After all, the teacher successfully calculated the next location of the Templar Clan for the next 36 hours.

And now, considering that the payment has been settled, Jin Rou asked for another favor separated from this. He wanted to see the item and see if he could do something about this.

When the ancestor heard this, she was overjoyed. She was thinking of possible ways to drag Jin Rou down here to have a look and see if he could at least suppress the item for the time being. After all, the item was day by day getting stronger by accumulating dark energy around the place.

Furthermore, the item was sealed for a very long time now. Perhaps, a million years ago. So the seal was already expected to weaken.

The ancestor was thinking of giving a formal show of gratitude after all these things were settled, be it successful or not.

Jin Rou could sense the immense amount of dark energy lurking everywhere here, even though the door was still closed.

"Let\'s open it." Jin Rou said to the ancestor.

"Activate!" The ancestor didn\'t hesitate as she immediately used the spell to open the large door.

"Creeeeek!" Then, the door moved and slowly gave a slit in its gap. Slowly and slowly, it opened until the two doors were stretched out, leaving a full space for anyone to enter at the same time.

What met Jin Rou there was a large castle hall with dark colors all around the place. But it wasn\'t the center of attraction there.

A large painting was hanging in the middle of the place. The painting was about a woman with dual horns, a seductive one at that, eating an apple.

The woman was wearing a black sexy dress that amplified the charm of her body. With a slit-thigh attire, she looked like a goddess of destruction and evil.

"A devil\'s treasure!" Jin Rou could sense the same aura that the devils he fought in the past. It was an unpleasant smell of blood and evilness that even time couldn\'t corrode it.

"Where did you get this thing?" Jin Rou immediately asked the ancestor, "This item isn\'t supposed to be here in your world. How did Chaos Origin get this?"

"I don\'t know the whole story, either." The ancestor was shocked with how Jin Rou reacted, "Chaos Origin didn\'t say anything else besides taking care of this item and never ever let anyone have it."

"This will lead you to destruction, Ancestor." Jin Rou could sense an ominous feeling in his heart, "This is an item that you shouldn\'t dare touch, that is true. After all, you can easily be devoured by this painting. Even that 12 laws a while ago wouldn\'t be an exception."

Jin Rou was flabbergasted why would a devil\'s treasure of this caliber would fall into this world. Judging by the power it was emitting, he was very sure that the painting was a very powerful devil treasure.

So why was it in this place once again? Jin Rou racked his brain to think about a possible reason. When he finally got a conclusion, he revealed a horrified expression for the very first time of his life.

"I\'m taking this treasure with me." Jin Rou said with an expression full of seriousness, "If I don\'t, your academy will surely fall into chaos and no one, even I, can save it."

"…" The ancestor used her perception to determine whether Jin Rou was telling lies or not, but she found out that Jin Rou was speaking the truth, "Alright. I trust you, Friend."

"You have no choice but to trust me with this." Jin Rou took a deep breath and revealed a large cube-like cage.

"Seal!" Then, he activated it and pointed at the painting.

"Shhhhh!" When the painting is inside, it tried to fight back, emitting a black fog around the vicinity. However, it was rendered useless and had no choice but be sealed in this cube.

Next, Jin Rou moved his fingers to direct the cube to his spatial dimension which time couldn\'t touch.

"Were done here, Ancestor." Jin Rou said, "Thank you for trusting me with this."

"It\'s alright. It\'s normal for me to trust you." The ancestor wryly smiled. After all, she really have no choice but to trust Jin Rou. If she dared to fight for her misplaced right, the academy would surely fall this time and no one would be able to save them.
