The Great Ruler (Web Novel)

The area turned red, and the indigenous people of the city-state trembled with fear. Red figures appeared high up in the sky, and they looked down voraciously at the people as though they were looking at beasts…

As the people in the city-state were in despair, a young figure slowly walked out from the main hall. He stepped into the space and stood in the air.

The figure with white hair wearing a red robe looked down at Mu Chen expressionlessly and said flatly, “Are you the one who has killed my men?”

Mu Chen nodded with a smile and said nonchalantly, “I have simply killed some suckers in my way.”

When he made that statement, many of the top powers from the Fiend Blood Tribe looked sharply at Mu Chen, wanting to tear him apart.

When the indigenous people in the city-state saw what was going on, they were frightened. They had not expected the youth to talk back to the Blood Demon Lord. The Blood Demon Lord was like a Demonic God to them. Once he was enraged, there would be bloodshed in the city-state.

The Blood Demon Lord squinted and gave Mu Chen a menacing look as he said, “In this world, no one dares to talk me in such a manner.”

Mu Chen laughed. He shook his head and said, “It seems to me that you have been flaunting your power in the Lower Planes. You are just a Blood Demon Lord of the Fiend Blood Tribe. What is so great about you?”

When the Blood Demon Lord heard Mu Chen mention the Lower Planes, his gaze froze. He stared at Mu Chen in bewilderment and asked, “Are you from the Great Thousand World?”

Mu Chen said lightly, “You have done too much evil. Someone will teach you a lesson one of these days.”

“Are you referring to yourself?” The Blood Demon Lord stared at Mu Chen with a derisive look and asked, “You are just a Complete Earthly Sovereign. Are you able to do so? Can you alone contend with our Fiend Blood Tribe?”

“Why not?” Mu Chen smiled.

A killing intent flashed in the Blood Demon Lord’s eyes. He had not expected someone from the Great Thousand World to poke his nose into the matters of the Lower Planes. He had to kill this person to prevent other top powers from the Great Thousand World from flooding the Lower Planes, as the Fiend Blood Tribe would be in dire straits if that happened.

“Kill him,” the Blood Demon Lord told the four Blood Demon Generals as he looked coldly at them. He was a cautious person, and he wanted to find out more about Mu Chen’s strength.

“Yes, sir!” the four Blood Demon Generals shouted when they heard the command. They looked ferociously at Mu Chen, and without any delay, they stomped their feet, turned into four blood rays, and dashed toward Mu Chen.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Vast blood rays swirled out from the four Blood Demon Generals, and the area was filled with the smell of blood. The indigenous people were on their toes when they saw the scene that was before them. They knew the power of the Blood Demon Generals, and now that the four of them had joined forces, their queen would be no match for them.

The queen and the higher echelons gathered outside the main hall and looked at the blows in the sky that were about to strike Mu Chen. Their bodies tensed up, as all of them felt anxious. After all, they did not know Mu Chen’s actual power. They also had no idea if Mu Chen was able to contend with the four Blood Demon Generals. If he was unable to do so, they would be utterly destroyed.

Swoosh! Swoosh!

As the people anxiously looked on, the four blood rays shot toward Mu Chen. Mu Chen lifted up his head and looked calmly at the imposing aura of the four Blood Demon Generals. He slowly clenched his fists, and crystal light burst out around them. He then stood still and threw out a punch.

Buzz! Buzz!

A bright Crystal Fist Ray shot out and expanded. In the next instant, it whizzed out and pierced through the space, suddenly appearing before the four Blood Demon Generals.

The Crystal Fist Ray came too quickly, and the four Blood Demon Generals came to their senses. Their expressions changed, and with a shout, four red streams whizzed out from their bodies, carrying with them a strong force that hit the Crystal Fist Ray.

Swish! Swish!

When the Crystal Fist Ray and the four red streams collided, the red streams immediately disappeared. It was as if snowflakes had fallen into magma…

The Blood Demon Generals looked shocked. Apparently, they had not expected to be so vulnerable to Mu Chen’s attacks, even though they had joined forces… Mu Chen’s strength had way surpassed theirs!

“Retreat!” The four Blood Demon Lords retreated and tried to escape.

“Where are you going?” Mu Chen sneered, and a killing intent appeared in his eyes. He hated the Fiend Blood Tribe to the core, and since the opportunity was before him, he would not show them any mercy. Mu Chen flicked his fingers, and the Crystal Fist Ray pierced through the space and blasted onto the four Blood Demon Generals.

Ah! A heart-rending cry resounded in the sky.

The Crystal Fist Ray dispersed slowly in the sky and hit the four Blood Demon Generals. They disappeared, leaving no trace behind. Just one punch and the four Blood Demon Generals had been turned into ashes.

There was dead silence in the whole area. The devastated indigenous people widened their eyes and looked at the scene in disbelief… The powerful Blood Demon Generals were so vulnerable when they met the mysterious youth!

Some of the indigenous people who had seen Mu Chen earlier in Battle City shouted out excitedly, “That is the deity!” They quickly dispersed, and there was an uproar in the city-state.

“Is it truly the deity?”

“He is so powerful. He does not belong to the Fiend Blood Tribe, so he must be a deity!”

“Is the deity here to save us?”

“…”

Several indigenous people knelt down and bowed to Mu Chen. After facing so many rounds of devastation, they finally had some hope. The higher echelons outside the main hall shouted as well. They watched the youth in the sky and swallowed hard. The four Blood Demon Generals had been killed by one punch from Mu Chen. He was so powerful, that even the higher echelons were taken by surprise.

The queen looked at Mu Chen in amazement. She longed to have such great power so she could protect her people.

As the indigenous people were shouting out with joy, the top powers from the Fiend Blood Tribe in the sky turned ghastly pale. All these years, they had been formidable in this world, and no one could stop them, thus they were arrogant. However, they had now been hit by such a fatal attack.

The four who had been killed were Blood Demon Generals. They held high-ranking positions in the Fiend Blood Tribe, but they were as powerless as ants in the youth’s eyes. Fear fell upon the Fiend Blood Tribe’s top powers, and all of them turned to look at the Blood Demon Lord, who was sitting on the throne. The Blood Demon Lord looked grim, and he stared at Mu Chen with a cold look.

He was taken aback by the strong combat force that Mu Chen had displayed. However, the tougher his opponent, the more imperative it was that he kill him. If he did not do so, the indigenous people would still be feeling hopeful.

The Blood Demon Lord said in a petrifying tone, “Ha. Deity? I shall kill your deity before your very eyes this day. Let’s see if you still dare to rebel against us!” He then slowly stood up from the throne.

When he stood up, the city-state once again quietened down. They had been oppressed by the Blood Demon Lords all these years, and they could not get away from their shadow. They considered the Blood Demon Generals to be invincible, and as for the Blood Demon Lord, he was like a Demonic God to them. Although the mysterious young deity was powerful, no one was certain if he could defeat the Blood Demon Lord. He had won the earlier fight, but that was only the beginning.

The queen and the higher echelons turned grave. Mu Chen had shown great power earlier, but that was not good enough. If he was unable to defeat the Blood Demon Lord, all the earlier victories would come to naught…

As the people looked on, Mu Chen lifted up his head to look at the Blood Demon Lord. He squinted, and the Crystal Pagoda loomed in his eyes.

The Blood Demon Lord slowly came down from the sky and landed before Mu Chen. He folded his arms before his chest with his red robe fluttering. A killing intent flashed in his eyes, and he said, “If you leave the Lower Planes now, I will let you off unscathed.”

Mu Chen smiled and stretched out his palms. Powerful spiritual energy glittered at the center of his palms like lightning as he stared at the Blood Demon Lord and said, “It depends on whether you are capable of doing so.”

“Pigheaded. You are digging your own grave!” The Blood Demon Lord gave an evil smile, and in the next instant, he stretched out his hands. The entire area suddenly darkened, and an endless stretch of Blood Sea surged behind him. A huge, red demonic figure slowly stood out from the Blood Sea.

A horrifying oppression engulfed the area, and the sky seemed about to collapse under the red demonic figure’s shadow…

When the queen, who was standing outside the main hall, saw the red demonic figure, she bit her lips. Blood flowed out from her lips as she recalled the frightful memory of the red demonic figure killing the elders of her sect… The demonic figure was so powerful that they had not been able to defend against it.

The higher echelons standing behind her turned ghastly pale, and their knees started to knock against each other. They nearly fell to the ground. Everyone shivered at the sight of the demonic figure.

Mu Chen was the only one who lifted up his head and remained nonchalant. He asked, “Is this what you are capable of?”

The Blood Demon Lord was extremely cautious. He no longer wished to test Mu Chen. The moment he struck, he used his trump card.

“In that case…” Mu Chen smiled at the Blood Demon Lord, but there was no warmth in his smile. The crystal light in his eyes surged, and a Crystal Pagoda shot out and landed gently on his palm. “It’s showtime…”
