Zhou Ming looked at Luo Tian kneeling on the ground, his eyes filled with the desperate desire to live, and felt not the slightest ripple in his heart.
He admitted that Luo Tian had a point.
Letting him return would indeed save Zhou Ming considerable trouble. He could take over the entire Flowing Light Domain without incident and turn it into his base for gathering fortune.

Zhou Ming's gaze seemed to pierce the endless Chaos Void and reach the distant Divine Asura Domain.
The risk was too great.
Once Luo Tian and the others returned, his existence would be fully exposed to the Da Luo True Lord of the Divine Asura Domain.
An unfamiliar expert of the Da Luo True Realm, whose origins were unknown, had suddenly appeared at the edge of his territory and seized one of his subordinate domains.

That was an enormous walking treasure trove containing boundless creation!
A treasure trove enough to drive any expert of the Da Luo True Realm mad.
