In the bleak yellow forest, suddenly a dull sound swept out. The black flames raged like a storm, burning the forest into ashes. However, the black flames did not burn for long and were gradually extinguished.
Rustle.
A figure slowly walked out of the blackened forest. It was Mu Chen. He looked down at his dark palm expressionlessly. In the midst of surging spiritual energy, the darkness quickly dissipated. The burn on his palm also recovered at an accelerated rate.
Behind him, there was the faint sight of two figures kneeling, their heads hanging feebly. The burning black flame on their heads was extinguished as all traces of life dissipated. There was still disbelief and horror in their eyes. They clearly did not think that a mere Upper Earthly Sovereign would have such terrible power.
“It was them, indeed.” Mu Chen did not bother to look at the cold bodies. Instead, he looked in the direction of the mountains and forests, frowning slightly.
There had been no suspense in the previous battle, as Mu Chen was far beyond an ordinary Complete Sovereign, despite being an Upper Earthly Sovereign. The two Sovereigns of the Balrog Clan were at best Complete Sovereigns. Thus, they had not stood a chance against Mu Chen. However, from the news they had shared before their deaths, Mu Chen knew about the two women they had spoken of.
As he had previously speculated, the two women could only be Qing Shuang and Qing Ling, as they were the only ladies who had entered this level. The two of them seemed to have met the leader of this Balrog Clan. Although he did not know the leader’s strength yet, this person must have been comparable to a Complete Sovereign at his peak to drive Qing Shuang into such a desperate state.
Looking in that direction, Mu Chen was obviously hesitant to lend a hand. After all, he did not have much affection for the people of the Budur Ancient Clan. Although his mother was from Qing Shuang’s bloodline, over the years, they watched his mother be imprisoned and were indifferent. This was enough to make Mu Chen resentful.
After a moment’s pondering, he pursed his lips and charged swiftly towards that direction like a roc. In spite of his grudge against the Budur Ancient Clan, Qing Shuang had been trying to help when he was in trouble. That alone was enough to keep Mu Chen off of the sidelines. His resentment towards the Budur Ancient Clan did not need to involve Qing Shuang. Otherwise, it would appear that he was a little too petty.
…
Boom!
A black flame fist fell from the sky like a meteorite. The terrifying power could shatter the space, bringing forth an aura of destruction. Qing Shuang grabbed Qing Ling’s wrist as she floundered. A bright spiritual light erupted as her speed suddenly increased.
Whoosh!
The fists of fire roared down from behind and bombarded the mountain, shattering it and scattering debris. The black flames reduced millions of boulders to ashes in an instant. Qing Ling saw the destructive power of the fist, and her face turned deathly pale.
“Haha, you two beauties, why bother wasting your effort? Come to me, let me have a taste of the Great Thousand World beauties!” Behind them, there was the raucous sound of laughter.
A black flame surged as a burly man stood in the midst of it. His hair was also ablaze with black flames, and runes of fire were engraved on his face. His eyes glinted with evil as he stared at the two slender silhouettes running ahead. Licking his lips, a filthy desire sprouted in his gaze.
Feeling the increasingly hot fluctuations behind them, Qing Ling paled as she exclaimed, “Sister Qing Shuang, leave me and go!” When they came to this area, they were extremely unlucky to have encountered these Sovereigns of the Balrog Clan. Qing Shuang was injured, as she had not had time to defend herself. As a result, they could only choose to escape.
The Balrog Clan Sovereign pursuing them was incredibly strong. Even at Qing Shuang’s peak, she could barely counter him. With her as a burden, they were naturally in a perilous situation.
“No!” Qing Shuang gritted her teeth. She could feel the desire and tyranny in the Balrog Clan Sovereign’s eyes. If Qing Ling fell into his hands, even death would be a relief. A cold glint surged in Qing Shuang’s eyes as she spoke between gritted teeth, “You’ll go first, I’ll hold him off!”
“Sister Qing Shuang, you are no match for him now!” Qing Ling exclaimed urgently.
“If we continue to be entangled like this, sooner or later, we will both be caught,” Qing Shuang snapped.
Qing Ling bit her red lips with tears in her eyes. She nodded forcefully and shot away in the other direction. Qing Shuang stopped and turned around. Her beautiful face was cold as she looked at the Balrog Clan Sovereign hot on her heels.
“Haha, so you sacrificed yourself to save her? How very touching.” The Balrog Clan Sovereign slowed down, gazing at Qing Shuang mockingly. His eyes greedily scanned her exquisite and graceful figure.
“Forget it, I’ll just catch you and enjoy myself.” The Balrog Clan Sovereign licked his lips and smiled.
Qing Shuang’s eyes grew increasingly cold. Clenching her fist, an azure sword appeared in her hands. A chilling aura emanated from the sword’s body, freezing the air. This sword seemed to be forged from ice. When it appeared, the blue light of the ice radiated, as if freezing the world into an icy plane of existence. Such power was clearly one from an authentic High Grade Sacred Object.
Upon seeing it, the Balrog Clan Commander’s gaze grew solemn. He then smiled and lifted his palm. Black flames condensed in his hands, and in the blink of an eye, turned into a black bead of fire.
Over the bead of fire, there was an infinite amount of heat. It seemed that it could stir the evil fire in one’s heart, and rationality would be lost after a long period of exposure to its heat. This bead of fire was similarly no ordinary object.
Roar!
The Balrog Clan Commander charged swiftly. At the same time, the fiery bead shot out numerous massive black flame snakes. Black magma and flame converged in their mouths, surging towards Qing Shuang with a fierce and unparalleled momentum.
Qing Shuang’s face grew frosty. Swinging the ice sword in her hands, a vast cold aura gathered. In just a few moments, it formed an ice prison, freezing and imprisoning the approaching giant snakes.
When the Balrog Clan Commander saw this scene, he let out a deceitful chuckle. “Heh heh.”
Bang!
The flaming giant snakes erupted violently as black flames raged. The icy world that Qing Shuang built was destroyed cleanly in a split second.
Spurt.
Qing Shuang spit out a mouthful of blood. She had been severely wounded before, but now after suffering a blow from the Balrog Clan Commander, her wounds became more serious. Her spiritual energy had been shaken up, causing her flesh and blood to sting.
“Haha! Beauty, you’re mine now!” The Balrog Clan Commander let out a skyward laugh and appeared in front of Qing Shuang, grabbing at her fair, slender neck.
In the distance, Qing Ling saw this scene, and desperation grew in her eyes.
Qing Shuang stared at the approaching Balrog Clan Commander without any panic in her eyes. A decisive glint flashed in her gaze as she conjured seals. The spiritual energy within her body vibrated madly.
She was trying to blow herself up!
“Sister Qing Shuang!” Far away, Qing Ling could feel the spiritual energy raging in heaven and earth as her face turned deathly pale. She shuddered as she screamed in agony.
“B*tch!” At this time, the Balrog Clan Commander’s face also changed dramatically. Gritting his teeth, he wanted to retreat immediately. However, at the moment of his sudden retreat, two figures suddenly appeared in front of him. Fists containing crystal light gathered vast spiritual energy, dealing fierce and unparalleled blows to his chest.
Such an offensive came too suddenly. The Balrog Clan Commander hurriedly waved his palm to counter the attack. Black flames burned, trying to push the opponent back. The two figures, however, ignored the overbearing black flames, and the crystal fists thumped onto the Balrog Clan Commander’s palms.
Bong!
A deep sound rang out, and the Balrog Clan Commander shot out in dismay. It was not the power of the two figures that shocked him, but the spreading of the crystal light in his palms. Where the crystal light passed, even his black flames began to fade rapidly… as if they had been sealed.
The Balrog Clan Commander exclaimed in disbelief as he retreated hastily, “What is this thing?!” He triggered his energy madly in a bid to drive out the strange crystal light.
As the Balrog Clan Commander retreated, a figure flashed out in front of Qing Shuang. He looked at the spiritual energy rioting in her body, frowned, and clapped his hand on her chest. The light of the crystal radiated, and some of the seal’s power passed into Qing Shuang’s body, sealing her rampaging spiritual energy. Her spiritual energy gradually returned to a calm state as she opened her eyes. There was a handsome and familiar young face reflected in her eyes.
“Mu Chen…” She was astonished and was about to speak, but darkness flashed in her eyes, and she fainted.
As she was about to fall, Mu Chen stretched out his arm and held her by her soft and slender waist. He looked at Qing Shuang, who was seriously injured and unconscious, and frowned helplessly.
As Mu Chen held Qing Shuang, an enraged roar rumbled behind them. “What a**hole dares to ruin my plans?!”
