Chapter 3705
After a few seconds, Darryl calmed down and then looked at Emperor Aurelias curiously. "Your Majesty, what was
the bet you've made with your Junior Brother?"
There was no doubt that Emperor Aurelias lost the bet. otherwise, he would not have stayed in that dark and
skyless Immortal Tomb. Darryl wanted to get to the bottom of everything.
Emperor Aurelias pondered that. A myriad of expressions flickered through his face as he thought about the past.
After a few minutes, he slowly said, "My junior brother and I made a bet on human nature. I believed that
humans were kind and hardworking, but he thought people were greedy and evil. To prove that, we locked a
human in a spirited fruit forest and then gave him a divine power secret manual with a fairy guarding over him

"I told that person that as long as he did what he was told, he could stay in the Godly Region after cultivating the
divine power.
However, he was not to leave the forest or eat the fruits. I bet that the person would listen
to me and work hard at cultivating the divine power while my junior brother said that the
human would definitely eat the spirited fruits. He was sure no one could resist the
temptation of adding five hundred more years to their lifespan by eating the fruit."
Darryl laughed and said, "And finally, the human ate the spirited fruit."
"Exactly!" Emperor Aurelias nodded; his expression was a bit complicated. "The human
picked the spirited fruit and also defiled the fairy. So, I lost."
'F*ck! That man sure is brave. He ate the spirited fruit and also defiled the fairy!' Darryl
thought, stunned.
"According to the agreement, I have to destroy my fairy soul and then enter the Immortal
Tomb for meditation, and my junior brother would take over my rule in the Godly Region. I
can't believe 30,000 years have passed just like that." Emperor Aurelias said sorrowfully.
Darryl's heart lurched, and his mind went blank. Emperor Aurelias had no fairy soul, yet he
was still so strong. That meant his power would be even more terrifying if he possessed a
fairy soul.
Then, he analyzed the story and the bet between Emperor Aurelias and the Nine Heaven
Emperor and felt something was off about it. There was no need to be so cruel when

enter a dark place like the Immortal Tomb for meditation? Had the Nine Heaven Emperor
planned to steal the throne from Emperor Aurelias?
"Your Majesty, has it ever occurred to you that your junior brother pulled some shady
tricks during the bet?"
Emperor Aurelias' expression became solemn. "What do you mean? II
"Think about it. No ordinary human being would eat the spirited fruit and defile the fairy if you've given them a
warning. They knew the consequences would not be something that they could handle. I suspect that your junior
brother pulled tricks on the man, and that was why you lost so thoroughly."
Darryl observed Emperor Aurelias' expression after he said the last sentence.
Emperor Aurelias remained silent, deep in thought.
"By the way..."
