“No matter how long the story is, there will be a day when it’s finished…” Chen Heng looked at Tarilo, who had a bitter smile on her face, then he smiled and said, “Coincidentally, I have a lot of time now, I can slowly listen to your story.”
His words were very soft and did not give off a strong sense of oppression, but the meaning in his words could not be doubted. Chen Heng was indeed very curious about Tarilo’s background. Philip’s memory had Delia’s past, but there was no Tarilo’s past.
In Philip’s memory, he only knew that Tarilo also carried some things on her back, and it seemed that she had a very powerful enemy. In the beginning, it was precisely because they had similar goals that they would enter the King’s ruin together to search for the inheritance.
However, Tarilo’s performance became more and more low-key as time passed. At the same time, she did not take the initiative to reveal her past. After some time, this matter was forgotten by Philip and was not paid much attention to.
This was also normal. After all, at that time, they were already the strongest group of people in the entire Hechi Star. Each of them held a large amount of resources and wealth in their hands, so they naturally did not care about the past.
It was only at this moment that Chen Heng realized that things were not that simple. At the very least, based on Tarilo’s current strength, if even she was so fearful, then someone who was so fearful would definitely not be that simple. Thinking of this, Chen Heng looked at Tarilo with interest, and his
eyes revealed some anticipation.
“Icame from the Alliance.” Under Chen Heng’s gaze, Tarilo hesitated for a moment, then said, “My family is a royal family of the Federation Kingdom within the Alliance. I was originally a princess of that kingdom…”
“A princess of the Federation?” Chen Heng glanced at Tarilo, feeling a little surprised at this moment.
Chen Heng was naturally clear about the so-called Alliance. This was a faction formed by many small factions. Its power was very large. Although it was not as large as the Round Table, it was also extremely powerful. No one would dare to provoke it.
To a certain extent, Chen Heng could be considered to have come from the Alliance too. This was because he had come from the Qika Federation, which was also a member of the Alliance.
“Before the age of twenty, I had always lived in my own country and enjoyed the best things.” Tarilo continued, “Until the day of my twentieth birthday, everything changed. A long spear fell from the sky and destroyed my country, pierced through the star where I lived, and destroyed everything. My home
was completely destroyed, my family was massacred and I was the only one left to escape.
“Who was the enemy?” Chen Heng could not help but frown in surprise when he heard this.
Tarilo’s description was somewhat terrifying. According to what she said, the enemy who attacked had destroyed her country and even destroyed a star. This kind of strength must be a terrifying powerhouse.
Destroying a country and wiping out the royal family was something that Chen Heng could do. A fifth rank powerhouse could do it as long as a corresponding powerhouse wasn’t blocking the way.
However, it wasn’t that easy to destroy the star and everything on it. It was impossible for a fifth rank powerhouse. At least a sixth rank was required to have the ability to do so.
However, there was another problem. Why would such a powerhouse do such a thing to Tarilo’s family?
“I don’t know who that is…” Tarilo seemed to be immersed in some terrifying memories, Even her body trembled slightly, “When it happened, my father and mother were also trying their best to resist, but it was useless. The mysterious person who appeared was too powerful. Whoever stood before him
would undoubtedly be pierced by the long spear. From the beginning to the end, that person didn’t appear. Only the long spear pierced through everything and destroyed the star where I was…”
Before him, Tarilo revealed a bitter smile, “That terrifying sense of powerlessness made one feel despair. He destroyed a star without even appearing…”
Chen Heng frowned, and his evaluation of that mysterious existence could not help but increase. He had destroyed a star with his weapon alone, without even appearing. The person who had made such a move was probably one of the most substantial existences among the sixth rank.
“After that, I came to Hechi Star. Then, as you know, I entered the King’s Ruins to take risks, trying to obtain power…” Tarilo revealed a bitter smile. “I’m the last member of the Tam family. If that person knew that I was still alive, he would not let me off.”
Hearing this, Chen Heng was noncommittal and did not express his opinion. In his view, Tarilo was really like an ant. As long as she did not deliberately approach the other party, how could the other party look for her? Tarilo had lived safely for more than a hundred years, proving this point. That person
either did not know of Tarilo’s existence or had directly ignored her, did not put her in his eyes.
After that, Tarilo revealed some more things. When she first entered the King’s Ruins, she wasn’t like Philip and Delia, ultimately trying their luck. Compared to the two of them, Tarilo already knew some secrets from her family, so she already had some understanding of the King’s Ruins. And because of
this, in that ruin, she gained the most.
“The legend of the Black King has always been passed down in my family…” Tarilo said truthfully, “It is said that my ancestor was one of the followers of the Black King.”
“Therefore, I know some of the secrets of the Black King’s ruins. There is even a keepsake that allowed us to obtain part of the Black King’s inheritance successfully. The person who destroyed my family back then should have come for this. Back then, he stole something from my family.”
“Oh?” Chen Heng was somewhat interested in hearing this. He couldn’t help but laugh. “What is it?”
“I’s a Supreme Treasure of my family, which is my family’s most important inheritance. It was said that my ancestor has obtained it from the King’s hands…” Tarilo then hesitated, “Actually, I don’t know what it is exactly. I only know that from the outside. It looks like a stone tablet.”
‘A Stone tablet. Chen Heng’s heart skipped a beat, and he subconsciously raised his head. It originated from the legendary King, and even a powerhouse of that level wanted to fight for it, ‘Could it be that thing?’ Many thoughts flashed through Chen Heng’s mind as he thought of something.
“The initial stone tablet.’ It was something that Chen Heng had seen twice before.
However, in his previous two experiences, what he had seen should only be the projection of the initial stone tablet.
The actual initial stone tablet should still be lying quietly in the corner of this world or in the hands of some powerhouses. However, there was no doubt that this kind of existence was the top-secret treasure of this world, and no matter how much one sought after it, it wouldn’t be too much.
‘Could the stone tablet that the Tarilo family once controlled be one of the initial stone tablets? In an instant, this thought flashed through Chen Heng’s mind.
If it were the initial stone tablet, it wouldn’t be strange that Tarilo’s family would suffer such a fate. After all, the weak could not fight against the strong in this world. Possessing a secret treasure that far exceeded one’s strength was a sin. It was not surprising that such an outcome would happen.
“During these one hundred years, I have been gathering information and searching for clues…” Tarilo’s voice continued to sound, and she sighed and said softly, “After more than a hundred years of careful searching, I finally found some clues. I can roughly guess who the person who attacked me was. If
nothing unexpected happens, the person who attacked my family and took away my family’s secret treasure should be one of the Five Knights…” Under Chen Heng’s astonished gaze, Tarilo gave this answer.
“The Five Knights of the Round Table?” Chen Heng’s eyes were filled with surprise.
“That’s right.” Tarilo sighed and was also surprised by Chen Heng’s words. “You’ve heard of them?”
“I guessed so.” Chen Heng smiled.
He did not expect that Tarilo’s enemy was an old acquaintance. Chen Heng still had not forgotten the battle with the Crimson Knight. And the Crimson Knight was one of the Five Knights of the Round Table. As for the other knights, Chen Heng did not know them for the time being, However, this did not
matter.
According to the original trajectory of fate, as Lu Yao grew up, she would continue to bump into the Five Knights of the Round Table, coming into direct contact with them. In the end, she would fight them one by one. Currently, Chen Heng had only met the Crimson Knight once, but that might not be the
case in the future.
“I’s a coincidence.” Chen Heng smiled as he met Tarilo’s surprised gaze and said, “The Five Knights of the Round Table are famous. I’ve been looking forward to this for a long time. Do you regret it now?”
Looking at Chen Heng’s expression, Tarilo revealed a self-deprecating expression. “I’m an elder of the Red Lotus Association. Now that you’ve taken over the Red Lotus Association and become the successor of the Black King, you’ll most likely be targeted by the people of the Round Table in the future.
When that time comes…” She looked at Chen Heng in front of her and sighed softly.
As for what she would say next, she did not say it. Going against the Round Table was not a good thing. The power of the Round Table in this world was enormous and tyrannical. It was absolutely beyond the imagination of ordinary people.
Based on the situation, the other party’s target was undoubtedly the Black King, who had once been the King’s successor back then. Chen Heng taking over the Red Lotus Society and becoming the leader of the Red Lotus Society was the same as inheriting the Black King’s inheritance. Sooner or later, he
would enter the other party’s line of sight. At that time, his ending would probably be very miserable.
However, contrary to Tarilo’s expectations, Chen Heng only smiled when he heard her words as if he did not feel nervous. This attitude surprised her a little. Over the years, she worked hard, trying to accumulate some strength to resist the Round Table in the future.
However, every powerhouse who knew about the existence of the Round Table was afraid of it. They would not even dare to think about it if she made a move, not to mention wanting to join Tarilo’s camp. In the past, Tarilo was used to the reactions of others. However, it was her first time seeing
someone as calm as Chen Heng.
“Aren’t you afraid?” She couldn’t help but ask..
