The Great Ruler (Web Novel)

Boom!

When the Myriad Flames Celestial Body exploded, it instantly turned into sparkles of light that scattered everywhere in the sky as it fell down. Within the sparkles of light that filled the entire sky, everyone could see a pathetic figure flying out.

Poof! Poof!

That figure vomited blood in the sky. The powerful Spiritual Energy around him had diminished to the extreme. Clearly, he had suffered grave injuries.

“Liu Yan has been defeated!”

Every expert in this region exclaimed. Progressing this far in the fight, there was already a explicit outcome. Liu Yan had suffered heavy injuries and his fighting power had declined. He couldn’t contend with Mu Chen anymore.

Mu Chen maintained the stance of a fist out, his sharp gaze beneath the golden armour had locked onto Liu Yan with a hint of killing intent flashing in the depths of his eyes. He had no hesitation as he burst out, chasing after the heavily-wounded Liu Yan.

The gushing killing intent made everyone startled. Clearly, it was evident that Mu Chen was going to kill him. The decisiveness of the latter had made the hearts of everyone tremble. Although Mu Chen didn’t seem older, his means weren’t something to be belittled.

When the heavily-wounded Liu Yan saw Mu Chen coming at his direction, his face drastically, suddenly changed as he barked, “Brat, if you dare to kill me, the Sky Profound Palace will kill you without a burial place!”

He had lost a huge portion of his strength at the moment, so if he was to continue the fight, he would have danger to his life today.

Facing his bark, there weren’t any ripples in Mu Chen’s cold pupils. Mu Chen moved and appeared before Liu Yan. The fist enveloped in scales brought along boundless Spiritual Energy fluctuations as he threw it over at Liu Yan’s head without any hesitation.

Facing Mu Chen’s attack, which was filled with killing intent, fear finally rose on Liu Yan’s face. Mu Chen’s decisiveness had exceeded his expectations.

“You want to kill me? It’s not so easy!”

However, Liu Yan wasn’t someone like his younger brother, Liu Ming. Even in such a dangerous situation, he did not panic. He issued a roar and cracks appeared on his body as violent Spiritual Energy shot out from those cracks.

At the sight of this, Mu Chen couldn’t help twitching the corner of his eyes. That fellow was actually intending to self-destruct!

Rustle!

Mu Chen’s body swiftly retreated. At the same time, Liu Yan’s body had exploded and a Spiritual Energy gale wrecked havoc in that instant. Space had distorted due to it. It was so much so that there were even spatial cracks spreading out.

When the shock wave hit Mu Chen, a groan came from his throat. Luckily, he had the protection of the Dragon-Phoenix Golden Armour, so he did not suffer any heavy injuries, but he was sent flying back.

As the Spiritual Energy hurricane wreaked havoc, a spiritual light streaked across the horizon, before it distorted and swiftly disappeared, it was Liu Yan’s Spirit. After exploding his physical body, his Spirit escaped.

At the sight of this, Mu Chen narrowed his eyes and did not do any further action. Exploding his body, Liu Yan had also suffered heavy injuries to his Spirit. So even if he managed to escape, he was no different from a half-cripple, so there was nothing to fear.

Up in the sky, the violent storm of Spiritual Energy had gradually died down. Thereafter, every single gaze was a little shaken as they looked at that figure enveloped in golden armour.

Although he only stood quietly on the horizon, there was a palpitating pressure spreading out. Under that vigour, even experts like Su Biyue, Hong Yu and the rest couldn’t help having a grave expression.

To face someone that could defeat Liu Yan and force him to explode his body, then flee with his Spirit, there wasn’t anyone without fear here.

Up in the sky, Mu Chen’s body had golden light flowing on it as the Dragon-Phoenix Golden Armour swiftly burrowed below Mu Chen’s skin, revealing Mu Chen’s figure once again.

When Mu Chen’s figure was exposed, many experts couldn’t help being startled.

At this moment, Mu Chen’s body was covered in a layer of scabs that were formed with blood. Under those blood scabs, ferocious wounds could be seen.

Clearly, those should be the wounds that Liu Yan had inflicted on Mu Chen earlier.

Mu Chen’s body jolted as the blood scabs peeled off. The wounds that were so deep that bones could be seen were swiftly healed at a visible speed. In just a few tens of breaths, his body had completely recovered. His recovery speed left many experts looking at him, overwhelmed with shock.

Mu Chen was also extremely satisfied with his recovery speed. After integrating the Blood Essences of the True Dragon and Phoenix into his bloodline, it had bestowed him a vitality comparable to Divine Beasts. As long as it wasn’t an annihilation attack, he could swiftly recover.

Sensing his recovered body, Mu Chen raised his head and swept his gaze out.

In the depths of his black pupils, there seemed to be an extremely powerful and ferocious beast hidden within, the sharpness made others feel fearful. Adding him defeating Liu Yan earlier, Mu Chen’s grandeur had reached the pinnacle at this moment.

At this point in time, even someone as powerful as Su Biyue, Hong Yu and Ding Xuan had fear in their eyes as they slightly turned their gazes away and did not face Mu Chen. At the same time, they also did not dare to reveal the slightest enmity.

This youth before them was definitely not easy to deal with.

The entire heavens and earth were quiet as countless experts exchanged looks. They were startled by Mu Chen’s manner, so no one would belittle Mu Chen at this moment.

Mu Chen’s gaze swept across the horizon, then fixed his gaze at a direction on the horizon. There were three figures standing in that direction that were restraining each other. The aura that they had formed made no one daring to approach within a few thousand feet in radius.

But at this moment, Mu Chen had directed his sharp gaze over, which caused the aura over there to slightly shake.

At the same time, every single daze was uncontrollably directed at that area. Although the fight between Mu Chen and Liu Yan was intense, everyone knew that the real fight was over there.

Mu Chen and Liu Yan were strong, but compared to Cai Xiao, Fang Yi and the Netherworld Prince, they were still a little lacking.

Even if Mu Chen had defeated Liu Yan right now, if he wanted to interfere with those three experts, no one felt that he could obstruct such a ferocious figure like the Netherworld Prince even if he managed to defeat Liu Yan.

Under the countless gazes, Fang Yi and the Netherworld Prince had lightly knitted their brows. Clearly, the current situation had gone beyond their expectations.

“Looks like the both of you are disappointed.” Cai Xiao said with indifference as a dangerous light gathered in her alluring eyes.

Fang Yi lightly smiled, except that his body had gradually tensed up as he felt the cold killing intent gradually being released from Cai Xiao’s body. Clearly, the latter finally couldn’t hold it anymore and was prepared to attack.

“If you’re planning to have him obstruct the Netherworld Prince, I’m afraid that he will die.” Fang Yi slowly said.

A cold arc rose on Cai Xiao’s face. “I will kill you before that happens.”

Fang Yi narrowed his eyes as a chilling light flashed in his indifferent face. He slightly turned his head, looking at the Netherworld Prince.

The latter had sensed Fang Yi’s gaze, then pondered briefly before saying, “Split the inheritance in half.” What he meant was naturally the Dragon-Phoenix Inheritance.

“Sure.” Fang Yi directly nodded his head in response and agreed to the Netherworld Prince’s terms. Because he knew that at this time, he needed to borrow the power of the Netherworld Prince if he wanted to deal with Mu Chen and Cai Xiao.

“Don’t be lenient and kill him as fast as you can… She’s not easy to deal with.” Fang Yi slowly spoke as he looked at Cai Xiao.

The Netherworld Prince nodded his head. He had fought with Cai Xiao in the past, so he naturally knew how terrifying that mysterious girl was. If he fought her by himself, even he wasn’t confident in defeating her. Therefore, he had to deal with Mu Chen as soon as he could and join with Fang Yi to kill Cai Xiao.

The Netherworld Prince directed his deep gaze at Mu Chen, indifference filling his eyes.

“Hoho, your tone isn’t small.”

Cai Xiao smiled as well, except that a chill had filled in her eyes as she stared at Fang Yi, before looking at Mu Chen, “Can you obstruct him for a while?”

Mu Chen’s gaze fixed onto the Netherworld Prince as well. Although he felt dense danger coming from the latter, he still gently nodded his head.

“I won’t let him interfere in your battle.” Mu Chen lightly said.

Cai Xiao took a deep look at Mu Chen, before nodding her head. She wasn’t clear of Mu Chen’s current strength, so she wasn’t sure if Mu Chen could obstruct the Netherworld Prince. But judging from the current situation, that was the only way. Otherwise, she and Mu Chen wouldn’t be able to break out of this situation.

Therefore, she could only choose to believe in Mu Chen.

“Obstruct me?”

The Netherworld Prince stood on the sky as he looked at Mu Chen with indifference. Shortly after, a faint arc rose on his pale face as he found Mu Chen’s confidence hilarious.

“You should learn from Liu Yan’s outcome…”

He muttered as his palms gently drew a circle. Pitch-black Spiritual Energy gathered beneath his palms, vaguely forming black holes. At that moment, the space around him violently trembled as a dreadful Spiritual Energy pressure gathered like a rolling mountain and ocean before sweeping out in this region.

Sensing the stunning Spiritual Energy pressure around the Netherworld Prince, the faces of Su Biyue, Hong Yu and Ding Xuan couldn’t help changing as they exclaimed, “Fifth Grade Sovereign?!”

Hearing their words, Mu Chen’s heart lightly jolted. The Netherworld Prince had actually broken through to Fifth Grade Sovereign?!

If that was the case, then the outcome of this battle would be hard to determine!
