"Talk business, with a brat still wet behind the ears?! Do you know who's backing me?!" the king of the Galactic Societies shouted.
I sighed before I slowly went down towards him, fear was clear in his eyes, after all he can't understand how a King Class cultivator was able to beat him black and blue, and destroy that 'guardian' of his. In one hit.
Not to mention destroy this city's barrier and render half if not most of his forces useless in less than half a day.
"I just met the Fire Lord a while ago, and trust me when I tell you, he isn't coming to help you, no one is," I said.
"Why are you doing this?!"
"Because you owe a debt to the Heavenly Academy, it brought you to this status, it gave you strength, power and knowledge that you used to be who you are today, you must pay it back, but instead you turned your back on the hand that fed you, and now you're trying to bite it. Calling you a dog would be an insult to all dogs, since they're loyal," I said as I stood in front of him.
"FILTHY LOW BIRTH!" the king shouted as he tried to swing his fist toward me.
I easily caught it, and twisted.
SNAP
The King watched in horror as his arm was snapped in half, he looked at it in a daze before the pain even registered, the surge of pain was enough to cause him to stumble and fall on his back.
He then began yelling, "Help me!" as he backed away on his ass.
"No one is going to help you," I said as I slowly followed the king.
"You decided to betray those who helped you. And now, you'll be reaping what you sowed," I said as I got closer and closer.
The king then aimed his ring at me, "KILL!" he said
A mass of black souls emerged from the ring, howling and screeching at me, trying to consume me whole.
Instead of backing out, or defending, like any other sane cultivator would do. I opened my mouth and consumed them all. And just to add salt to injury, I burped afterward.
"Thanks for the meal, got any more?" I said as I tilted my head.
Imagine being afraid of souls when you have a soul that feeds on them.
Terrified at what he was looking at, the king's face turned pale, "Devil, you're a devil! The heavens will not allow you to exist!"
"I'm surprised they allowed you, unfilial one to even breath this very air, but still, the academy asked me to convince you, so let me do some convincing," I said as I flexed my palm sideways manifesting a jet-black stake from the center of my palm.
"You shall know Pain."
I instantly stabbed it into his foot, and a surge of agony, pain and ungodly amounts of screams surged out of his mouth.
Before he could even take a second breath, another stake was already stabbed through his other foot, then the rest of his hands. Staking him to the ground.
He screeched and screamed, then spurred a flurry of insults that would make a sailor blush.
He then began weeping from the agony and pain, then began begging for me to spare him, then finally begged to be killed.
After all, no sane man could ever survive the Soul Shackling Stake with their mind intact.
The Pain was emitted directly to the soul and it far surpasses any bodily pain.
"I guess that's enough," I said as I called back the stakes.
Breathing heavily, the king said, "Please, no more… I was wrong."
'Of course you're not, it's clear as day from your eyes. You're just waiting for a chance to back stab me.'
"Good to hear," I said "Then I pressed my palm on his forehead applying the Soul Shackling Seal on it.
"What did you do?" he asked.
"An insurance, for you, and for me. Now, where are the rest of your forces? I can't believe that with just this much you're able to extort so many planets, you must have more?"
"They… they're at the Fire Lord's disposal."
I frowned, I guess he already supplied the Fire Lord with members.
"I see…"
I already know the Fire Lord's exact location, the heat and power he's emitting is strong enough to be felt from all the corners of the Vast Expanse.
"The Fire Lord's assault on the Earth Realm is in full force, I suppose the Earth Realm will soon fall…"
"It already fell," said the King.
"What? I'm sure that if the Earth King wants he can fortify his base completely. I've personally witnessed his ability, though not as strong as the Fire Lord he isn't someone to be taken lightly."
"That's if he's on the solid earth, he was baited, his daughter was kidnapped and he was forced to leave his planet to fight back… The Earth Lord is probably dead by now,"
'I've had a good impression of Lin De, the daughter of Huange De the Earth King. And I don't want to hear that she's in the hands of the Fire Lord, I'll need to investigate further. I'm still not strong enough to contend with the Fire Lord, I know that for a fact, if I were to meet him physically, I'll need a hundred lives to survive him.'
"Call back your forces, or die," I said then headed toward the thunder bull who was looking at the group of cultivators menacingly holding all of them back.
Once I rode and headed out of the Galactic Societies I moved to the Heavenly Academy, I can't take on the Fire Lord, I needed assistance to defuse this situation.
The Fire Lord is currently looking for the keys. Since he already controls the Water Realm's lord, he has the Metal Key, and now he took down the Earth Lord, that means he has the Earth Key, all he has left is the Water and Wind Key.
Since his hardest trial is the Wind Realm, he'll leave it for last. So, Yuyu is in grave danger, I need to hurry.

In the Heavenly Academy, the Queen finally woke up from her comatose state.
Looking around she saw Meng Hao and Zhang Tian both sitting in meditative pose. Her moving was 14:43
enough to cause them to wake up and notice her.
"Mother!" Zhang Tian said as he stood up and approached his mother's bed.
"What happened?" she asked.
"Oh, after the fight with the Fire lord, we retreated back, and now we're here, we had no deaths, only you were injured," Zhang Tian said.
"Not that, why am I sensing Shen Bao again?" she asked.
"Oh, you were in a coma when he woke up, I see. He managed to survive the Primordial Serpent God, and is now heading to the Black Tower," Zhang Tian said.
"Black Tower?" she said as she stared at the wall, "He's already leaving the Galactic Societies though…"
"Wait, that was his second destination, did he already finish his dealings with the Black Tower?"
"I see the flames of the Fire Lord in the black tower, and Madam Zha's distorted spirit…"
The queen then pulled a black pill from her holding bag and ate it, instantly regenerating her missing limb.
She flexed it a bit and sighed, "This will need many years to be useful. Anyway, Old Blue, why didn't you tell the child," the Queen said.
Master Rain then opened the door to the room and entered saying, "I didn't think he should know," he said.
"But that's a part of his destiny, why hide it?"
"It will only confuse him more," Master Rain said.
"With a mind like his, and a soul like his, it will bring him certainty, not confusion, you really underestimate him too much," she said.
"I didn't want to act before you woke up, after all, I'm not the only one with a say in this, you dealt with him the same…"
The Queen sighed and pulled a jet-black jade. She placed it on her forehead and then threw it.
"Is that A Space Owl Jade?" Meng Hao asked.
"Oh, you know what that is," Zhang Tian said.
"Yes, it's supposed to be the fastest tool to send a message in the Vast Expanse, but… isn't that too expensive," Meng Hao said.
"Not for this matter," the Queen said…
"Don't you think it's too early?"
"I can't win against the Fire Lord… we need him," she said.
Zhang Tian was confused, "I admire Shen Bao's spirit, but why rely on his strength, I know of how powerful he is, but I doubt he's strong enough to fight the Fire Lord."
"For now, he isn't, but once he arrives to that place… all should be revealed," the Queen said.
