The Great Ruler (Web Novel)

“If you want me, why don’t you come and try?”

The girl stood in the sky with a faint mocking smile hanging on her face. When her clear and cold voice resounded, it had caused many experts to be stunned. Clearly, they did not know why Cai Xiao was so confident in facing a powerhouse like the Myriad Viper Sovereign.

Didn’t she know that the Myriad Viper Sovereign was a terrifying Earth Sovereign powerhouse?!

Naturally, not only were they stunned, even Myriad Viper Sovereign was as well. Shortly after, a strange smile appeared on his pointy and thin face. He looked at Cai Xiao and said in a sharp voice, “You actually dare to ssspeak in sssuch a manner with this Sssovereign. Hiss hiss, how interesting. Now, this Sssovereign wantsss you even more!”

Finishing his words, the Myriad Viper Sovereign couldn’t hold back any longer. His figure moved, tearing space in the process and mysteriously appeared before Cai Xiao. Thereafter, his pale hand made a grab towards Cai Xiao’s fair wrist.

His speed didn’t look fast or slow, but the instant he made his move, the space around Cai Xiao had instantly frozen. Not only could she not move, even the Spiritual Energy in her body was sealed.

At the sight of this scene, Mu Chen’s face changed. Just when he was about to make his move, he saw an arc rise at the corner of Cai Xiao’s lips, which made him stop moving in puzzlement.

Could it be that she could also deal with this situation?

Cai Xiao maintained a calm expression and coldly stared at the Myriad Viper Sovereign. Just when the latter was about to grab ahold of her, her hand flipped over and a scarlet jade plaque appeared in her hand.

On the jade plaque, there were countless fire runes engraved on it. Then, it was crushed by Cai Xiao with a clench of her fist.

Blaze!

When the jade plaque was destroyed, blazing flames poured out and enveloped Cai Xiao’s figure. Flames soared, which caused all the experts in this region to narrow their eyes.

The flames around Cai Xiao were extremely abnormal. They weren’t a monotone colour, but brightly coloured and seemed to contain more than one fire attribute in that flame.

Furthermore, the most shocking fact was that the gorgeous flames had coiled around Cai Xiao like a current of water. The abnormality of the fire and water made many people dumbfounded at the sight of this.

Like flames that flowed like water, the colours were extremely pure as well. But within that pureness, there was the emmitence of terrifying undulations that could practically destroy anything.

Mu Chen had seen flames with many attributes, taking the Myriad Flames Celestial Body that Liu Yan had cultivated, which looked similar. But compared to this flame, the flames from the Myriad Flames Celestial Body were practically garbage.

“Those flames…” Mandala had suddenly narrowed her eyes at the sight of those flames with her expression turning more solemn. Her gaze was fixed onto the gorgeous and pure flames that coiled around Cai Xiao. Even someone of her existence had felt a dense dangerous fluctuation from the flames.

When Mandala’s face had turned solemn, the face of the Myriad Viper Sovereign, which was stretching his hand towards Cai Xiao, had drastically changed as well. He was an Earth Sovereign expert as well, so his perception far exceeded ordinary people. When he saw the flames around Cai Xiao, he instantly felt a chill in his heart and burst back in retreat.

His figure had shuttled through space with a speed that couldn’t be caught.

However, Cai Xiao, who was enveloped in the extremely pure flames, had stretched her finger out and gently tapped.

Whoosh!

The flames around her swept out in a rustle, disappearing before everyone’s eyes. Thereafter, the Myriad Viper Sovereign, who was shuttling through space in retreat, had issued a shriek. That’s because the flames had actually pierced through space, appeared around him and became firmly bound to him.

Many experts inhaled a mouthful of chilled air because the flames were too abnormal. They looked like they could neglect the distance of space and appear around the Myriad Viper Sovereign.

That speed was simply too fast and couldn’t be guarded against.

“You!”

The Myriad Viper Sovereign was both stunned and angered. Waving his sleeve, a river of Spiritual Energy instantly swept out. Looking from that amount of Spiritual Energy, just a single drop of it could form into a vast ocean or destroy the earth. But at this moment, it was instantly evaporated by the gorgeous flames.

“How is that possible?!” The Myriad Viper Sovereign roared. There wasn’t anymore of the bearing belonging to a powerhouse on his face, since it was replaced with shock. The scene before him was something that even someone as sophisticated as him couldn’t bear. He couldn’t imagine how a feeble and weak girl could possess such a terrifying move!

Boom!

Although the Myriad Viper Sovereign’s heart was filled with fear, he did not lack behind. He abruptly formed some seals. A crimson blood mist abruptly gushed out from his body, forming into a defence that enveloped him.

When the blood mist appeared, the Spiritual Energy in this region was instantly being corroded and there were multiple spaces being constantly dissolved. This was the most prideful God Venom that the Myriad Viper Sovereign had taken most pride in. The venomous mist was something that even an Earth Sovereign expert would fear.

When the crimson blood mist swept out, it had instantly formed into a blood dragon that charged towards the gorgeous flame as it roared.

Poof! Poof!

When the two forces heavily clashed, another shocking scene appeared. The blood dragon had actually issued a miserable shriek, before the venom that could even dissolve space was swiftly being evaporated by the gorgeous flames.

The gorgeous flames swiftly approached and enveloped the Myriad Viper Sovereign.

A hint of fear finally rose in the eyes of the Myriad Viper Sovereign. He could sense that if he was struck by such a terrifying flame, he would definitely be heavily injured.

However, no matter what method he tried, he still could not obstruct the gorgeous flames. The latter looked like they wouldn’t rest until he was completely incinerated.

“Damn it!”

The eyes of the Myriad Viper Sovereign drastically changed. However, he was still an Earth Sovereign expert. Therefore, he bit his teeth and changed his seals. His body suddenly exploded with blood splattering in every direction, leaving behind a colourful serpent’s tail, while the body had disappeared.

In the sky few myriad feet away, space shattered and a miserable-looking figure appeared from it. It was the Myriad Viper Sovereign. However, he only had his upper body at the moment, his lower body was bloody, with blood endlessly pouring down from it.

Countless experts were dumbfounded at how miserable the Myriad Viper Sovereign was. It was so much so that even Mandala and Liu Tiandao had their faces turn extremely grave. In terms of strength, although the Myriad Viper Sovereign had just stepped into the Earth Sovereign Realm not too long ago, he was still a powerhouse that had stepped into the realm of Earth Sovereigns. Even if they were to make their moves, they would have to spend quite a bit of effort in order to gain the upper hand. But, right now… the Myriad Viper Sovereign was actually in such a miserable state by a weak-looking girl!

“Who exactly is she?!”

Many experts were shaken in their hearts with their gazes directed at Cai Xiao, who was standing in the sky. Mu Chen was also looking at her with an astonished gaze as well. Although he knew that Cai Xiao’s origin wasn’t ordinary, he never expected her trump card to be so powerful!

“You! Who are you?!”

The Myriad Viper Sovereign stood in the sky few myriad feet away with an ashen expression as he looked at Cai Xiao. The rage in his eyes nearly made him go crazy. However, he still managed to suppress the killing intent in his heart, before yelling out in a sharp tone.

The Myriad Viper Sovereign couldn’t help being startled. The flames from earlier were definitely not something belonging to Cai Xiao, but an external object. However, the owner of that external object was the source of the Myriad Viper Sovereign’s fear.

Just a jade plaque alone could land him in such a miserable situation. If that person was to arrive here personally, just how powerful would he be?!

Could it be a Heavenly Sovereign?!

Just thinking about this alone made the Myriad Viper Sovereign feel his scalp numbing.

“I thought you wanted to capture me.” Cai Xiao looked at the Myriad Viper Sovereign with a mocking smile as she gently lifted her hand. The gorgeous flames flew back and gathered above her, forming into a fire image that looked like a cauldron with a person on it.

That person had his hands behind his back with his black hair fluttering in the wind. Behind him, there was a black ruler. Although that figure was only an image, it was as if even the heavens and earth were beneath his feet.

It was a prestige that surpassed the heavens and earth!

Many experts weren’t familiar with that image, but when the Myriad Viper Sovereign saw that image, a deep fear surged in the depth of his eyes and he couldn’t help exclaiming, “This fire image… you’re from the Endless Fire Territory?! Who is the Flame Emperor to you?!”

His voice contained deep fear, since he never thought that the girl before him would actually be from the Endless Fire Territory that held a majestic prestige!

“So that’s the case…” Mandala had a solemn expression as she looked at Cai Xiao with a weird gaze, “She is from the Endless Fire Territory. Then the flames from before… should be the legendary Emperor Flames. No wonder it was so overbearing and dreadful!”

“Emperor Flames?” Mu Chen was stunned.

“The flames possessed by the founder of the Endless Fire Territory, the Flame Emperor… was said to be refined by the Flame Emperor from all sorts of flames in the world. It can also be known as the emperor of all flames. In the Great Thousand World, there isn’t any flame that is comparable to it.” Mandala smiled as she continued, “Since she can use this flame, then she must have a relationship with the Flame Emperor. Haha, the Myriad Viper Sovereign has kicked against an iron plate this time.”

Cai Xiao stood in this region, disregarding all the startled gazes. Her eyes were directed at the fearful Myriad Viper Sovereign with a mocking arc that rose on the corner of her lips. Furthermore, her words had also made the Myriad Viper Sovereign feel cold all over his body in an instant with his hair standing on end.

“The Flame Emperor… just happens to be my dad. If you want to capture me, shouldn’t you inform him about it, first?”
