Chapter 629 Talking To Another Descendant
The food came rather quickly which surprised the other guests, usually, it would take a very long time to make the food it wasn't strange even to wait a few hours before the food arrives. Before when the guests asked the waiters why it took so long to make the food the waiters would answer you can't rush the chefs. Many had tried and failed to make the chefs quicken their cooking.
"What kind of magic did they use?"
"I remember that someone offered to pay twice the amount just to make the chefs work faster, but he was instead thrown out."
While the people were happily discussing how Ren was able to make the chefs cook so fast, Ren himself was already eating his fifth steak. The spiritual essence in the meat was so intense that even people at the Golden Core Realm would find it difficult to digest but Ren was eating it like it was nothing.
To the current Ren, this amount of spiritual essence was nothing but a drop in the ocean. Ren's body was able to not only store such a huge amount of spiritual essence but it was also converting it quickly into pure origin Qi. This was one of the greatest passive skills of the Strongest Mortal Soul.
The people watching from the side were rather surprised to see how quickly Ren devoured the food, not only was he able to eat so fast but he was able to eat such powerful spiritual essence without blowing up. Many had thought that Ren was going to use some sort of prop to survive eating but he did nothing at all. Even some Nascent Soul Realm cultivators will find it hard to eat such heavy spiritual essence at such a fast pace.
Richard was even more amazed than the others as he ate a tiny piece of the meat, and he found that the spiritual essence within was so dense it was hard to swallow but it was indeed delicious. If he eats the meat too fast he might implode which made him realize how amazing Ren was again. The guy in front of him was able to eat such meat like it was nothing.
"So can we talk now?"
Hearing Richard's question Ren drank some tea and burped before answering.
"You can talk what's stopping you?"
"Well, you told me to wait, also are you sure it's alright to talk in this kind of place?" Richard looked at the prying eyes of the surrounding people.
"Don't worry I already used a spell, to be able to hear our conversation other people need to be at least one meter close to us, everyone outside this area will be unable to hear us even if we shout with all our might."
The moment Richard heard what Ren said he unconsciously gulped. Richard didn't even notice the moment Ren used such a spell, and he was looking at Ren all throughout.
"So what do you want to talk about?" Richard who was deep in his thoughts shook a little as he looked at Ren. It took him a little bit of time to calm his mind before speaking.
"It's the same question as before, who are you?"
"I'm Ren, simply Ren no last name. As for my identity, I have many, but I guess my most famous identity is the current incarnation of the Strongest Mortal Soul."
The very moment those words came out of Ren's mouth, Richard almost fell to the floor. He had already had a thousand guesses as to who Ren was, and the most outrageous one was that he was one of the original sons of Leonard Tranor, but it turns out that Ren's identity was even more outrageous. Ren was Leonard Tranor himself or a reincarnation of that person.
"Are you serious?" Richard couldn't help but blurt out.
"Oh, are you questioning me?" Ren stopped eating for a second and looked at Richard with a vicious smile on his face.
"No, it's not that I don't believe you, it's just that the truth is more spectacular than I thought... That means you're my Ancestor?" Ren continued eating as she shrugged his shoulders.
"In a way, I am indeed your ancestor, but at the same time not really. So is that all you wanted to ask?"
"Then Ancestor what are you doing here, is there some purpose?" Ren stared at Richard for a few seconds before answering.
"... The final battle is fast approaching and I'm here to prove my worth to myself."
"The final battle?! What do you mean? Who's the enemy, can anyone even be the opponent of the Ancestor?"
Richard was both excited and confused as he heard many spectacular stories about the Strongest Mortal Soul and even more stories about his ancestor an incarnation of the Strongest Mortal Soul, Leonard Tranor. It was said that his Ancestor has never known defeat. So Richard cannot imagine any kind of opponent that would make an incarnation of the Strongest Mortal Soul say it would be a final battle.
"Have you not noticed what's happening around you?"
"Do you mean the Demi-Gods? But no matter how powerful those guys are even in a group I don't think that they would be a match for the Ancestor."
"Heh, of course, but who said that they're the only ones who I must battle."
"No... Are the New Gods coming as well?..." It was then Richard remembered that his own clan had sent their best people to fight an Old God. At the time he found it weird as to why the head of the Clan would do that but now he was starting to see something. "Could it be even the Old Gods are joining in on this battle?"
"Hmph, it's not just them even those Ancient Gods or the so-called true Gods will be joining in... But that's not the end of this battle. There has only been one true enemy for this crusade of mine."
The very second Richard heard what Ren said he shivered uncontrollably. He didn't need to hear who the true enemy was as it could only be one person. The ORIGIN, the beginning and the end of all things.
"ANCESTOR! HAVE YOU FINALLY GONE MAD?!" Richard stood up from his chair and looked at Ren with both fear and anger.
