YIN-YANG DEVOURER

Since his exile, Ruvan had always been a cautious and distrustful person, the same sign of this was that only Lira knew his real name. Jonah and the rest of his good friends only knew him under the name Jakob.

Initially Ruvan was looking for a way to reject Xiong Mei, however something in her eyes told him that she had experienced the same thing as him. 

Another reason why Ruvan had accepted Xiong Mei's proposal was the search for purpose. Since his exile he had found himself wandering here and there with no goal other than to survive and pass the time. He was no longer the heir of the powerful Svarnas family who had a successful life ahead of him, but on the contrary, he was now an ordinary young man on a third-rate continent.

'For a few years now I have been wondering what my next step is... It is evident that if I continue staying on this continent my cultivation will stagnate and I will become a mediocre cultivator like most of the inhabitants of this place...'

'The resources I stole from the family treasury will gradually run out...'

'Just a couple more realms of cultivation before they finally run out... The low density of Spiritual Qi in this place doesn't help me either'

'Following this woman will not only help me continue my cultivation but also give me a purpose in life which I have been searching for for a long time since I came to this place...' Ruvan thought as he respectfully bowed in front of Xiong Mei. .

Xion Mei on the other hand also had her head full of thoughts. Initially she had thought about using Ruvan as a tool for her revenge. Even the idea of ​​placing some hidden seal on him crossed her mind to avoid any kind of betrayal.

'Life has taught me to see through people and I can say that this boy has accepted me as his Master...'

'Just like he was a lonely and lost creature who was wandering through life without any purpose'

"Get up" Xiong Mei finally said while holding him by his shoulders. A slight electric touch invaded both of them the moment their bodies touched...

"What?" Ruvan asked curiously after all the same thing had happened to him with Nina when they slept that time in the City of Waves.

"That has to do with the special condition of your body" Xiong Mei said as she was grateful to have a veil over her face to hide the blushing expression she had at the moment.

'My heart hasn't beaten this way in thousands of years... Without a doubt, the effect of that body is impressive,' Xiong Mei thought as she composed herself.

"The name of your physique is: Celestial Devourer Physique ."

"Celestial Devourer Physique? What kind of body is it? Why didn't my family find anything about my Physique?" Ruvan asked with interest. His Svarnas Family had searched by all means for any information about his physique but to his misfortune, no investigation had produced results.

"Patience, little boy… It is necessary to go back in time a little so that you know why your body is so mysterious"

"After all, your physique has been forgotten in the sands of time" Xiong Mei said with a mysterious tone.

"Forgotten in the Sands of Time?"

"That's how it is..."

"Your physique is linked to a history that almost no one knows today"

"The story of a man who brought the world to his knees"

"..." Ruvan

"Hundreds of thousands of years ago there was a powerful Sect that controlled the entire eastern part of the world… This hegemon was known as The Pleasure Palace…"

"It was a place that had no comparison whatsoever..." Xiong Mei said with a proud expression even though it was covered by her veil.

"Pleasure Palace?" I have read several history books but none of them mention a power called the Pleasure Palace?" Ruvan questioned doubtfully. The Vylas Empire was a powerful empire with hundreds of thousands of years of history, with access to all kinds of historical documents. It would be strange if a power as impressive as the one Xiong Mei mentioned did not exist in any of the records.

"It's normal that there isn't any information, after all the powers that destroyed it made sure that happened…" Xiong Mei said with a bit of contempt in her voice.

"The infamy and daring of the Pleasure Place was legendary… Some ancient records speak of how they subdued powerful demons to use them as mere battle slaves."

"It was said that there was no power as infamous as the Pleasure Palace in the entire ancient world"

"Unfortunately the stories of this powerful place became extinct over the years..."

"Then how did the Master find information about this mysterious power?" Ruvan asked curiously. He always liked history so he had to admit that he was trapped by Xiong Mei's story. 

"Although the Pleasure Palace was ultimately defeated, not all of its members were killed… These groups of survivors were exiled for millennia until they finally founded their own powers."

"The Thousand Desires Sect is one of those powers that were founded by the surviving members of the Pleasure Palace…"

"It is thanks to that, that our sect preserved some records of its glorious past."

"And that's where you come in..." Xiong Mei said with a half-smile hidden behind her veil.

"I?" Ruvan asked curiously while pointing his finger at himself foolishly.

"That's right. YOU…"

"The Pleasure Palace had a powerful Master... A powerful cultivator who was said to have no equal in the world. The exploits of their conquests echoed throughout the ancient world as their armies marched with impunity wherever they went"

"Most ancient powers were forced to give their daughters to the Palace Master as concubines as a sign of their loyalty."

"He was basically a tyrant… It is even said that he led punitive expeditions within the Demon Area. Even kidnapping one of the Demon Kings but unfortunately we do not have further details about that…"

"Wow… Seems like someone who liked to turn the world upside down" Ruvan said with a smile. This supposed Palace Master must have been a big deal.

"And it sure was…"

"His cruelty was also said to be legendary…"

"Those powers that attempted to challenge his authority were annihilated while their mates were enslaved and used as cauldrons for the disciples of his palace."

"Thousands of sects suffered before his wrath and very few of his enemies dared to face him head on."

"Many people called him King of Kings due to the many titles he held in different places"

 "And what was his name? Is there any record of his name?" Ruvan asked curiously, after all who wouldn't want to know the name of such a legendary figure. 

"That person's name was: Azkabar Hyllaz... And he was the legendary Master of the Pleasure Palace" Xiong Mei said seriously.
