The Great Ruler

A muffled voice echoed throughout the desolate forest as black flames wreaked havoc like a tornado that burnt patches of the mountain and forest into ashes.

However, those black flames did not last for long as they gradually died down.

A silhouette slowly walked out from the charred forest. It was Mu Chen, who had lowered his head to look at his blackened hands. Spiritual Energy surged and the black swiftly disappeared, along with the burnt wounds on his hands.

There were two silhouettes kneeled on the ground behind him, whose heads were hung low. Even the black flames in their hair had been extinguished along with their lives taken. There was still a shock of disbelief on their faces, since they never expected a Greater Earth Sovereign to be so powerful.

“It’s really them...” Mu Chen lazily looked at the two corpses before raising his head and look at another direction with his brows lightly knitted.

The previous battle held no suspense. Although Mu Chen was only a Greater Earth Sovereign, his fighting power had exceeded ordinary Perfected Earth Sovereigns, whereas the two experts of the Flame Demon Clan had just reached the Perfected Earth Sovereign Realm, at best. Thus, they could only die after facing Mu Chen.

However, from the information that he got from the two experts of the Flame Demon Clan before they died, he got more information regarding the two that they were previously speaking about...

Just as he had guessed, those two were Qing Shuang and Qing Ling of the Ancient Buddha Clan. After all, they’re the only ones in this layer that were women.

The two of them seemed to have encountered the commander of this Flame Demon Clan’s team. Although they weren’t clear of that commander’s strength, they could force Qing Shuang to such a pathetic state so that commander must be an existence comparable to a Pinnacle Perfected Earth Sovereign.

Mu Chen looked into that direction and briefly pondered. He was hesitating if he should help them. After all, he didn’t have any good impression of the Ancient Buddha Clan.

Although his mother was also from the same bloodline as Qing Shuang, they stood and watched his mother be imprisoned without doing anything, which made Mu Chen hold a grudge.

After a brief pondering, Mu Chen flung his lips aside as his feet tapped on the ground and flew out like a great roc towards their location.

Although he held a grudge against the Ancient Buddha Clan, Qing Shuang still showed actions of helping him when he encountered trouble. Just based on this point alone, he cannot stand and watch them.

There’s no need for his grudge against the Ancient Buddha Clan to implicate someone unrelated, or he would be too petty.

...

A fist shrouded in black flames descended from the sky with its terrifying might shattering space and brought along a destructive aura.

In a pathetic state, Qing Shuang held onto Qing Ling’s wrist as the spiritual light on her body exploded.

A flaming fist flew from the back and struck against a mountain, instantly shattering that mountain into countless rocks before being completely reduced to ashes by the black flames.

When Qing Ling, who was held by Qing Shuang, saw that destructive prowess, her face had turned pale.

“Haha, two beauties, why are you guys trying so hard? Just surrender and let me taste the women of the Great Thousand World!” A burst of ear-piercing laughter rang out.

Black flames flew over with a robust man in it. His hair was also blazing in black flames with fire runes engraved on his face as he looked at the two silhouettes before him with lust and licked his lips.

“Big Sister Qing Shuang, don’t care about me and go!” Sensing the blazing fluctuation, Qing Ling said with her face paled. Previously, when she came to this region, they encountered the experts of the so-called “Flame Demon Clan”. Qing Shuang was caught by surprise and ended up injured, and they could only choose to escape.

But the expert from the Flame Demon Clan behind was also powerful. Even if Qing Shuang wasn’t injured, she could only manage to barely fend him off. Now that she’s injured, along with a burden, the situation naturally got worse.

“No!” Qing Shuang gritted her teeth. She could sense the violence and desire in the eyes of that Flame Demon Clan. If Qing Ling fell into his hand, even death might be a relief.

“You leave first. I’ll hold him off!” A chill gathered in Qing Shuang’s eyes as she clenched her teeth.

“Big Sister Qing Shuang, you’re not his opponent right now!” Qing Ling said anxiously.

“If we continue to be tanged with him, it’s just a matter of time before the two of us are captured.” Qing Shuang spoke out sharply.

Biting her lips, tears welled up in Qing Ling’s eyes as she nodded her head before she shot towards another direction.

Qing Shuang stopped as she turned around and looked at that expert from the Flame Demon Clan who was pursuing them.

“Haha, sacrificing yourself to save others? How touching.” The Flame Demon Clan’s expert slowed down as he looked at Qing Shuang with a teasing gaze before looking at her body with greed.

“Forget it. I’ll enjoy your body first.” The Flame Demon Clan’s expert licked his lips as he said with his eyes narrowed.

The coldness in Qing Shuang’s eyes grew denser as she clenched her fist. An azure longsword appeared in her hand with an icy aura emanating out, causing even the atmosphere to freeze.

That longsword looked like it was made of ice, and when it appeared, an ice-blue lustre slowly spread out that vaguely turned this entire region into an ice world. Clearly, it was a genuine High Rank Saint Artifact.

When the commander of the Flame Demon Clan saw this, his eyes briefly narrowed before he chuckled and raised his hand as black flames condensed, instantly turning it into a bead of black flames.

The black flames gushed out with endless flames. Furthermore, that flames seemed to be able to trigger the dark side of a person, and looking for a long time could even cause the consciousness of a person to blank. That bead must also be an extraordinary item!

The commander of the Flame Demon Clan shot out with countless pythons of black flames shooting out with black flames that seemed like magma in the mouth of those pythons, ferociously pounced towards Qing Shuang.

Qing Shuang’s face was cold and the longsword in her hand trembled as cold aura gathered over. By the time those pythons approached, it had turned into an ice prison that enveloped her.

“Hehe.” When the commander of the Flame Demon Clan saw this scene, he had slyly smiled.

The pythons exploded as the black flames wreaked havoc, practically wiping out the icy world that Qing Shuang had constructed from the explosions.

A mouthful of blood spewed from Qing Shuang’s mouth. She was already heavily injured, to begin with, and suffering this attack from the commander of the Flame Demon Clan; her injuries had worsened. Even the Spiritual Energy in her body fluctuated, making her feel a stinging pain all over her body.

“Haha! Beauty, come to me!” The commander of the Flame Demon Clan laughed as he appeared before Qing Shuang, grabbing towards her pearly-white neck.

When Qing Ling saw this from afar, she practically felt despair.

Qing Shuang did not have any ripple in her eyes as she watched the Commander of the Flame Demon Clan coming in her direction. After that, her eyes flashed with resolution as she formed seals, and the Spiritual Energy in her body grew violent.

She’s intending on self-destructing!

“Big Sister Qing Shuang!” When Qing Ling felt the violent Spiritual Energy, her face paled and she yelled with her voice trembling.

“Fool!” The Commander of the Flame Demon Clan’s face drastically changed as he gritted his teeth and wanted to retreat.

But when he was about to retreat, two silhouettes had suddenly appeared before him with two jabs enveloped in a crystallised lustre shot towards his chest with boundless Spiritual Energy gathering over.

That attack came too suddenly, but the commander of the Flame Demon Clan swiftly threw his palms forth with black flames blazing on them.

However, those two silhouettes did not pay any attention to the overbearing black flames and struck the palms of the commander.

A deep explosion rang out with the commander of the Flame Demon Clan trembling before he was blown back. However, what he was shocked about wasn’t regarding the power of those two silhouettes. But there’s a crystallised lustre spreading out on his hand that caused his black flames to turn dim, as if they were being swiftly sealed!

“What’s this?!” The commander exclaimed as his silhouette retreated. The violent energy in his body moved to resist the crystallised lustre.

When the commander of the Flame Demon Clan retreated, a silhouette appeared before Qing Shuang. He looked at the violent Spiritual Energy raging in Qing Shuang’s body and knitted his brows before putting his palm on her chest.

A crystallised lustre burst out and burrowed into Qing Shuang’s body, temporarily sealing the raging Spiritual Energy in her body.

As her Spiritual Energy gradually calmed down, Qing Shuang opened her eyes a little and saw a familiar youthful face before her.

“Mu Chen...” She was startled, and just when she wanted to speak, she blacked out.

When she was about to fall, Mu Chen stretched his hand out to embrace her waist and looked at the fainted Qing Shuang while helplessly knitting his brows.

“Which scrap is this that dares to ruin things for this commander?!” After Mu Chen held onto Qing Shuang, a raging holler rang out behind him.
