The Great Ruler (Web Novel)

Boom!

The hall’s entire ceiling was torn by an invisible hand, as remnant rays of sunlight shined in. However, when the light shined on everyone, many could not feel warmth, only a fearful chill, for as the sun shined in, there was a chilling, murderous aura permeating the space.

In the great hall, the crowd looked up with trembling gazes. They then saw a vast spiritual power converging into rolling clouds. A lady dressed in elegant palace robes stood in the sky. Her beautiful eyes flashed with a cold glint as sharp as a blade. Just a glare was enough to intimidate the crowd, so people avoided eye contact.

The spiritual energy’s mighty and unmatched power constantly emanated from her body as it shrouded the entire Hundred Spirit City. Countless people shivered under the Heavenly Sovereign’s oppression.

Looking at the woman clad in palace robes, many leaders of the Hundred Spirit Continent held immense fear in their hearts. They clearly recognized her. She was Lord Hundred Spirit’s mother, and also the Clan Leader of the Hundred Flowers Clan, Liu Baihua. At the same time, she was also a Heavenly Sovereign.

“Mother! Mom! Save me!” When Lord Hundred Spirit saw Liu Baihua appear, he suddenly screamed madly as his suppressed rage erupted. “That b*stard cut off my arms! You must not let him go!”

In the air, Liu Baihua looked at Lord Hundred Spirit, his arms missing and blood splattered all over him. Rage consumed her, as she regarded her son as a precious treasure. She had allowed him to dominate the Hundred Spirit Continent and become an overlord, which made it clear how much she doted on him. Now, however, someone had cut off her precious child’s arms, which naturally enraged her.

“Fret not my son. Your father is on his way, and he has brought with him several of his best friends. Today, I want to see which fool dared to hurt my son on our Hundred Spirit Continent!” Liu Baihua’s voice rang out coldly.

Hearing this, Mu Feng and the others’ faces turned grave. They did not expect that Mu Chen would land himself in such deep trouble this time. Not only was the Beixuan Clan Leader going to come personally, but he also was bringing along many helpers.

Liu Baihua’s cold gaze then swept across the hall as she asked with a chilling tone, “Who did it?”

In the hall, the crowd could not help but to look at Mu Chen. The latter, however, was fiddling with the jade cup as he raised his head and glanced at Liu Baihua. “Seeing this, you don’t look like you are here to apologize?”

When Liu Baihua heard this, she burst into a furious grin and retorted, “Apologize? You’re out of your mind!”

Mu Chen replied nonchalantly, “You spoil this fool so much that he does anything he pleases on the Hundred Spirit Continent. He hurt my father and wants to bully my friend into being his wife. Since you don’t care, I’ll do it.”

“Who do you think you are?!” Liu Baihua glared at Mu Chen as she snapped, “My husband gave my son this Hundred Spirit Continent, so he is the master of this land. Everything here is in his control, so what if he did these things?”

“Looks like you’re a stupid, unreasonable woman.” Mu Chen frowned and continued, “In that case, from now on, this Hundred Spirit Continent belongs to me.”

“You insolent brat! How audacious!” Liu Baihua laughed as she stepped out. Her robes billowed with endless spiritual energy, and the spiritual energy transformed into a rain of flowers, surging towards Mu Chen. “You want to seize Hundred Spirit Continent? You don’t have the ability to do that!”

The rain of flowers swept across, glimmering brightly like jewels. Every flower was transformed by incomparably condensed spiritual energy, and just one could easily wipe out a Complete Earthly Sovereign. When gathered together in such numbers, the entire Hundred Spirit City would be annihilated.

Mu Chen looked at the rain of flowers, but his gaze didn’t even waver. At the initial stage of Spiritual Grade, his fighting power was enough to match the initial stage of God Grade. However, now he had stepped into the middle stage of Spiritual Grade. This Liu Baihua was merely at the initial stage of Spiritual Grade, so he could wreck her easily. Thus, he just opened his mouth and breathed out. Suddenly, a Spiritual Energy Windstorm swept out as the roaring rain of flowers bombarded it. The rain of flowers was immediately torn apart.

The leaders’ faces twisted in astonishment. Although they knew that Mu Chen should also be a Spiritual Grade Heavenly Sovereign, they did not expect that he could dissolve Liu Baihua’s attack so effortlessly.

“So you do have some ability. No wonder you dare to be so bold!” Liu Baihua’s gaze turned grave as her expression turned cold. She no longer held back as a sudden bright light burst out of her body. Her body shimmered with a brilliant light, and it was clear that she had summoned her spiritual body.

“Spiritual Pulse Super Power, Hundred Flower God of War!” Liu Baihua pointed at Mu Chen, her gaze chilling.

Buzz!

In that moment, everyone was appalled to see a strange blood-red flower bloom around Mu Chen. The petals enveloped and swallowed him within.

Liu Baihua saw Mu Chen being swallowed by the blood-red flower as she sneered. “Hmmph, young boy, you think you can be so arrogant just because you are a Heavenly Sovereign. My Spiritual Pulse Super Power will destroy you! As long as one is swallowed inside of it, even a Spiritual Grade Heavenly Sovereign’s Spiritual Body will be melted by the flower’s liquid!”

Mu Feng and Tang Qian’Er were horrified to see this. However, Qing Yanjing was calm and patted Mu Feng’s hand, indicating that there was nothing to worry about.

The other leaders were shaking their heads, as it seemed that the confrontation between the two revealed Liu Baihua to be the more cunning one.

“Haha!” On the throne, Lord Hundred Spirit cackled and then glared viciously at Mu Feng and Tang Qian’Er.

However, just as Lord Hundred Spirit cackled, suddenly a laugh rang out of the blood-red flower. “A Spiritual Pulse Super Power derived from a Heaven Level Spiritual Pulse is not as powerful as you say.” In the next moment, people saw purple flames rising from the flower. As the flames were ablaze, the blood-red flower that could trap a Spiritual Grade Heavenly Sovereign melted away completely at an astonishing speed.

High in the sky, Liu Baihua looked at this scene as shock finally flashed in her eyes. She was well aware of the power of her Spiritual Pulse Super Power, and even a Heavenly Sovereign of the same rank with extraordinary means would need some time to destroy the flower. But now, it could not even trap Mu Chen long enough?

“It seems that it’s no use talking to a brainless woman like you.” Mu Chen looked up indifferently at Liu Baihua. “In that case, I’ll say it with my fists.” Mu Chen opened his mouth again, and in the next moment, purple flames roared out. They transformed into a purple dragon that soared into the sky and charged towards Liu Baihua.

As the purple dragon surged, Liu Baihua’s eyes narrowed. She had seen how powerful the purple flames were and did not dare to underestimate them. Conjuring up seals hastily, waves of spiritual energy erupted, forming a flower wall that was condensed with flowers made of spiritual energy.

The flower wall may have looked gorgeous and fragile, but it had an extremely tenacious defense. It was strong enough to withstand a Spiritual Grade Heavenly Sovereign’s full-force attack. However, it was fragile before the purple dragon. As the flame dragon charged straight past, the wall burned as all its defenses instantly collapsed.

Liu Baihua looked appalled as even her strongest defense was shattered to smithereens by the purple dragon. She finally understood the gap between herself and Mu Chen.

“D*mn it, this guy is tough. I have to retreat and wait ’til my husband comes with his friends, and then we’ll deal with this guy!” Liu Baihua gritted her teeth and then turned into a flash of light, obviously wanting to retreat.

Her retreat caused many leaders in the hall to gasp. No one had thought that the vengeful Hundred Flowers Clan Leader would fail to withstand two moves at the hands of Mu Chen and have to escape in embarrassment. For a moment, everyone glanced at Mu Chen with awe and fear in their eyes. The strength that the latter showed obviously far surpassed Liu Baihua’s.

Lord Hundred Spirit, who had been howling on his throne, shut his mouth. His face was green with fear and disbelief.

Mu Chen ignored them as he just looked coldly at the hastily retreating Liu Baihua. “Now that you are here, do you think you can leave?” With a sneer, he conjured a seal single-handedly. The purple dragon erupted and turned into a massive purple flames palm, tearing through the void. It then bombarded Liu Baihua brutally.

Bang!

Liu Baihua took a critical hit and fell from the sky. She smashed a huge hole in the ground when she landed, and cracks continued to spread out. She laid in a humiliated state, severely injured.

Boom!

However, Mu Chen obviously did not intend to give her any respect. The purple flames palm clenched into a fist carrying the force of destruction and hurtled down with no mercy. Even if Liu Baihua had been a Spiritual Grade Heavenly Sovereign, her spiritual body would be shattered with one hit by such a brutal blow.

The purple flames fist roared as Liu Baihua turned deathly pale. She was horrified, as she had not expected Mu Chen to be so merciless.

Whoosh!

The whole city trembled violently as the purple flames fist was about to land amid the appalled crowd. Smoke and dust filled the air while everyone looked at that area. They were shell-shocked. Did Liu Baihua really perish under Mu Chen’s fist?

Mu Chen also glanced over as his eyes narrowed.

The smoke gradually dissipated, only to reveal that the purple flames fist maintained its posture in the huge pit. However, a few feet above Liu Baihua, there was a swirling green turtle shell. The turtle shell emitted a green light, protecting Liu Baihua.

Mu Chen glanced at the green tortoise shell, then stretched out his arms. He looked nonchalantly in the distance, where there were four silhouettes standing in the sky. Terrifying spiritual energy oppression constantly emanated from their bodies.

Among the four, a man in a green robe looked cold, and his gaze seemed as if it could pierce through the void. He stared at Mu Chen. His voice was like a thunderbolt, ringing through the heavens and earth. “You have terrorized my wife and child. Do you have no respect for me, Qin Beixuan?!”
