When Mu Chen’s voice resounded within the White Jade Square, the entire boisterous city fell into silence. Countless onlookers gulped as they stared at the juvenile wearing a faint smile on his face. Nobody would have expected that not only did the young Master of the Mu Estate not back down when facing the five God Grade Heavenly Sovereigns, but he had a most unyielding attitude towards them.

The Ghost Emperor, Ancestor Danyang, Reverend Purple Lightning, and the rest of the God Grade Heavenly Sovereigns on the golden thrones darkened their expressions slightly. Cold radiance swirled in their eyes.

As the five God Grade Heavenly Sovereigns looked coldly at Mu Chen, a sudden low bellow was heard from somewhere around the White Jade Square. “Impudent!” Three figures flitted out as they exploded with the vast spiritual energy of Spiritual Grade Heavenly Sovereigns.

These three Spiritual Grade Heavenly Sovereigns were superior characters second only to the five God Grade Sovereigns in the Tianluo Alliance. Upon witnessing Mu Chen’s bold and outrageous act, they could not keep to themselves any longer. In fact, they were the advance team tasked to test the waters of the Mu Estate under the orders of the five God Grade Sovereigns.

“How dare a mere emerging Mu Estate go against the Tianluo Alliance!? How ignorant!” The three Spiritual Grade Heavenly Sovereigns sneered. Without any politeness, they pushed out their palms. Three torrents of spiritual energy penetrated the air and swept out mercilessly towards Mu Chen and the rest.

Mu Chen did not even turn to look at them as they struck. His nonchalant black pupils stared only at the five God Grade Sovereigns. However, Nine Nether, who stood behind Mu Chen, had coldness flashing in her phoenix eyes. She opened her mouth and spurted out a ball of blazing black flame. The moment it made contact with the violent spiritual energy torrents, they were burned clean and disappeared.

The three Spiritual Grade Heavenly Sovereigns had drastic changes in their expressions. Apparently, they had not expected that Nine Nether would easily counter their attacks.

Sensing a tricky opponent in action, the three of them wanted to back off, but Nine Nether did not let them off easily. Since these fellows had initiated a fight, it would be an excellent chance to display the mightiness of the Mu Estate. As such, she jerked her petite body slightly. Immediately, a pair of phoenix wings burning with black flame appeared on her back. As she flapped, she vanished like a ghost.

The three Spiritual Grade Heavenly Sovereigns sensed something was amiss as soon as Nine Nether disappeared. Their spiritual energy surged in their bodies and gave off a bright radiance. This was done by circulating their spiritual bodies.

Shua!

Nine Nether showed up behind the three Spiritual Grade Heavenly Sovereigns like a ghost. Her phoenix wings burning with black flame struck out as a flash of black light flitted out with a sharpness that could cut through any space.

Upon hearing the wind coming from behind, the three of them were all horrified. They continued to allow the boundless spiritual energy to surge, forming layers and layers of spiritual energy shields around their bodies.

Sstz!

However, all their defenses were easily burned away by the blazing black flame. Everyone could only see the flash of black light and heard three sad, shrill cries. Countless spectators around the square watched dumbfoundedly as the three figures fell from the sky embarrassingly. There were hideous wounds on their chests, and their stomachs were almost ripped out. Blood flowed out profusely while the black flame still burned their wounds, making if difficult for them to heal.

Numerous experts sucked in a cold breath. Nine Nether was in the air, and they looked at her with awe in their eyes. Most of them had not expected that these three Spiritual Grade Heavenly Sovereigns from the Tianluo Alliance would suffer a clean defeat at her hands.

Nine Nether did not stop after she had injured them at lightning speed. Her eyes twinkled, and she transformed into a charging ball of black fire. Apparently, she intended to crush her enemies completely.

The three Spiritual Grade Heavenly Sovereigns were appalled to see Nine Nether chasing after them. After the previous exchange, they knew that they were not a match for Nine Nether, even if they joined forces.

Nine Nether showed up in front of them like greased lightning, but before she could strike again, an angry bellow that sounded like a clap of thunder was heard. “Outrageous!”

Reverend Purple Lightning disappeared from his golden throne when the angry bellow was made. Space distorted, and he appeared before Nine Nether with a punch blasting out. Thunder roared immediately. A flash of Purple Lightning Fist Light swept out, crumbling the space in front of it. As the God Grade Heavenly Sovereign struck, the blow displayed a daunting strength that surpassed Spiritual Grade.

As the reflection of the Purple Lightning Fist Light enlarged in Nine Nether’s phoenix eyes, the nonchalant-looking Mu Chen appeared in front of her as she was about to put out her ultimate defense. The Budur Pagoda emerged from his eyeball. The spiritual energy in his body circulated profusely and converted into Crystal Spiritual Energy. Mu Chen curled his fingers tightly and slowly swung his fist. The Crystal Spiritual Energy on his fist turned into a fist glove made of dazzling gems.

Dong!

Mu Chen’s fist punched the Purple Lightning Fist Light. After a short pause, the Purple Lightning Fist Light crumpled, and Mu Chen’s fist continued to penetrate space. At lighting speed, the fist blasted onto Reverend Purple Lightning’s chest in a freaky manner.

Boom!

A low sound was heard, and the air vibrated. Reverend Purple Lightning jerked his body and was forced back rapidly in an embarrassing manner. His dragging feet left two deep trenches in the White Jade Square.

Reverend Purple Lightning stabilized his body with a mixed expression on his face. He threw a ghastly look at Mu Chen, who still looked nonchalant. At the same time, an intense wariness surged in his heart as he realized Mu Chen’s formidable combat power.

The two of them exchanged blows in short order. When most of the experts in the square had come to their senses, Mu Chen had already sent Reverend Purple Lightning off flying. Instantly, they let out shocked exclamations.

Even though Mu Chen was rather well-known in the Great Thousand World, not many people had seen him exchange blows with a real God Grade Heavenly Sovereign. Only after seeing how he suppressed Reverend Purple Lightning, a God Grade Heavenly Sovereign, with his strength of a middle-stage Spiritual Grade, could they then feel its impact.

“If Reverend Purple Lightning is asking for a fight, you can come to me. Why are you finding trouble with a lady?” Mu Chen retracted his fist slowly and smiled faintly at him.

Reverend Purple Lightning did not say a word and just stared at Mu Chen with fierce-looking eyes.

At this moment, the exclamations from the square began to weaken as they saw the rest of the four God Grade Heavenly Sovereigns slowly rise up from their golden thrones. As they rose, the universe seemed to darken.

The Ghost Emperor stared at Mu Chen with his grayish-white pupils. A low voice began to say, “Master of the Mu Estate, we know you are domineering. I’m afraid I may not be able to gain any advantage if we engage in a solo fight.”

Many experts felt shocked when they heard what he said. With strength at the middle-stage God Grade level, the Ghost Emperor completely surpassed Mu Chen by a level. If he admitted that he could not beat Mu Chen, the latter must be ferocious. However, Mu Chen was looking somewhat indifferent. He did not show any complacency despite the Ghost Emperor giving him such worthy praise.

“The purpose of inviting you over for a banquet today is obvious. We, the Tianluo Alliance, are going to rule Tianluo Continent. If you agree to leave Tianluo Continent with the Mu Estate, we will definitely compensate you. But if you insist on competing for this continent with us…” Flashes of killing intent slowly surged in the Ghost Emperor’s grayish-white eyes as he stopped there. His killing desire could be heard in his low voice as it slowly echoed out, lowering the temperature drastically in the universe. “All five of us will have to join hands and ask for a fight with you.”

At this point, the Tianluo Alliance’s motive was finally completely revealed.

Many experts around the square looked solemn. The five God Grade Heavenly Sovereigns in the Tianluo Alliance intended to join forces just to take on Mu Chen alone. Judging from their actions, they must have been watching Mu Chen.

“The Tianluo Alliance is really shameless,” said Nine Nether coldly behind Mu Chen. She did not conceal her mocking tone.

If word that five God Grade Heavenly Sovereigns were going against one Spiritual Grade Heavenly Sovereign got out, it would not be an honorable tale to tell. However, the Ghost Emperor just gave a faint smile and said, “The winner takes all. I don’t really care about the progress.” He stared at Mu Chen with his grayish-white eyes and chuckled. “Besides, we really think highly of Mu Chen. Hence, we play by numbers. If what happened today gets out in the future, Mu Chen’s fame will rise again.”

When Nine Nether heard this, her eyes turned cold. “Despicable!”

Mu Chen waved his hand and stopped Nine Nether from continuing. He lifted his chin and smiled at the Ghost Emperor. “Thanks for the help.”

Reverend Purple Lightning replied coldly, “We can only help if you fight with us today.”

Mu Chen calmly asked, “Do all of you think you can beat me?”

Cold and eerie radiance flashed in the Ghost Emperor’s eyes. He slowly asked, “Why not?” As his voice faded, his grayish-white spiritual energy soared out from his body. His body quickly transformed into a gem-like spiritual body as spiritual light flickered in his eyes. The air vibrated as an ultimate daunting spiritual energy oppression loomed over the entire city. At the same time, the other four Heavenly Sovereigns transformed into their spiritual bodies, too. Within a short while, their heavy suppression loomed over Mu Chen.

The five God Grade Sovereigns struck together. Such a lineup was definitely earth-shaking. Many experts around the square looked solemn. Against such a lineup, the mighty Master of the Mu Estate should have been worried.

While everyone was watching, Mu Chen gazed at the five figures. His smile retreated from his handsome face and was replaced by a bone-chilling expression. “Since you like to play bully-by-numbers, I’ll show you who the real bully is then…” Mu Chen’s cold voice resounded slowly in the square.

The five of them frowned and were feeling slightly uneasy when they heard him.

Mu Chen stretched out his palm and put on a ring on his finger. The next moment, boundless mysterious light swept out from it, and the universe turned completely silent. Everyone staring at the square was horrified. A united armored army emerged freakily behind Mu Chen. When the silent army appeared, an indescribable terrifying fighting spirit soared between heaven and earth, shaking the entire universe.
