Commanding Wind and Cloud

Qian Jin heaved a sigh of relief. Regardless of what happened, at least it seemed like Zence Matten was out of that undead’s control.

Lucifer Lucy walked to Qian Jin and sighed and she thought to herself, “This man is vicious and decisive in battle, but his heart isn’t cruel enough. If Zence Matten and Qian Jin’s positions were switched, this prince might really shoot Qian Jin and kill him without hesitation.”

Qian Jin grabbed onto the Heart of Lucifer and many high-pitched screams were heard by his ears. Endless negative emotions filled his brain and he was about to lose his mind and go crazy at any moment now.

“This level of threat is hundreds if not thousands of times weaker compared to before…” Qian Jin thought to himself and looked at Zence Matten who was in a deep sleep in admiration. He was feeling anxious and unstable just holding the Heart of Lucifer, but Zence Matten actually took it from the giant metal coffin. The level of willpower and spiritual energy required were insane!

Qian Jin placed the Heart of Lucifer into his Warrior Dimension and walked to a relatively small coffin. Then he placed both of his hands on it and slowly raised it.

“Qian Jin’s brute strength…” Duren Burg looked at Qian Jin and shook his head repeatedly. “Many behemoth bloodline warriors would feel ashamed in front of him. Perhaps only those golden behemoths can be compared to him. This coffin weights more than 5,000 kilograms, right?”

Qian Jin also threw this coffin into his Warrior Dimension and he glanced around in pity as he said, “There isn’t enough time; I can’t take all of them. Otherwise, all of these coffins would be great for research.”

“Destroy it?” Duren Burg smiled and suggested.

Cech Flet shot out a burning beam of light from his Demon Eye of Destruction, but it didn’t even penetrate a coffin; it only left a fist-sized mark on it before disappearing.

Duren Burg’s smile froze on his face and he thought, “Damn! These coffins are much stronger than I expected. At least I don’t dare to take one the burning beam from Cech’s Demon Eye of Destruction.

Lucifer Lucy walked toward the gate while quickly taking away all the rare materials she saw and placing them into her Warrior Dimension; she looked exactly like a bandit on the Frontier.

After climbing the long staircase the team was back on the ground level.

Qian Jin inhaled the fresh air of the night and he suddenly heard Zence Matten’s groan; this prince woke up from his state of unconsciousness.

“I’m actually still alive…” Zence Matten looked at the stars in the dark sky and sighed like a man who escaped death, “I didn’t expect this.”

“Congratulations,” Duren Burg laughed while looking at Zence Matten. “You didn’t even die in this scenario. Perhaps you will really become the future emperor of the Zence Empire.”

Zence Matten smiled powerlessly and struggled before getting out of Fanta Kunge’s arms. Then, he saw Qian Jin who was smiling and looking at him.

“Idiot!” Zence Matten’s face turned cold as he said, “How can you be soft like a woman?”

The smile on Qian Jin’s face froze.

Zence Matten continued, “You should be crueler. If I were you, I would have killed me.”

“However…” A warm smile suddenly appeared on Zence Matten’s face and he added, “Thank you! It sure feels great to be alive.”

“Alright, letting you live is already great enough. How come you are so talkative?” Duren Burg patted the back of Zence Matten’s head and he said, “Let’s leave here as soon as we can. Then, we can divide up that thing in a safe place.”

Lucifer Lucy quickly nodded. No one knew what would happen in the future if they didn’t divide up the metal sphere and use it. If someone appeared and robbed it, they would lose big time!

Qian Jin’s eyes landed on Lucifer Lucy. Out of them, only this princess knew Fallen City well and knew which place was the safest.

“I know of a forest,” Lucifer Lucy said after a moment of thinking, “Although it is in the open, there aren’t any animals or demon beasts. It is only a simple little forest but no one pays attention to it. It should be safer than any hidden places.”

Fanta Kunge nodded and agreed, and he added, “The man-made hiding spots are easier to be searched by humans and demons. These commonplace ones usually aren’t searched at all.”

“What are we waiting for then?” Duren Burg rubbed his hands and said, “I look forward to this; I wonder what benefits the Heart of Lucifer will bring us.”

Lucifer Lucy looked around and confirmed the direction and she dashed forward leading the team.

Duren Burg ran after her, but he lost balance in the air and almost fell to the ground. He quickly rubbed his forehead and murmured, “How come I’m a little dizzy? I also feel like throwing up.”

“Pregnant…”

Cech Flet’s calm and faint swords flowed into Duren Burg’s ears.

“Hey, you are the one who’s pregnant!” Duren Burg yelled, “Daddy is a guy!”

Qian Jin followed up and whispered, “This is the side effect of using the soul realm when you aren’t a saint warrior yet. You will recover soon.”

“My comrade is more knowledgable!” Duren Burg said as he rolled his eyes at Cech Flet.

Cech Flet looked at Duren Burg helplessly but was still stubborn. “Pregnant.”

“You are just jealous that I have a soul realm.”

“I will have a soul realm one day as well. A complete one.”

“It will be a garbage soul realm.”

“It will be the strongest soul realm.”

While they dashed forward, Cech Flet and Duren Burg bickered non-stop.

Fanta Kunge was beside them and he sighed and thought, “Even if these two lost their warrior power, they won’t starve to death. As long as they bicker on the open street, people will treat it as a new form of entertainment and tip them; they will make more than storytellers and traveling poets!”

After sprinting forward for a while, Lucifer Lucy found a few warhorses and the team got on the horses and rushed toward the little forest.

When they got to the little forest that Lucifer Lucy mentioned, Qian Jin finally realized why this princess said that it was safe in there.

Qian Jin thought to himself, “Little forest? Are these trees small? Five people are needed to completely wrap their arms around the thinnest tree here! The thick ones? More than a dozen people are required to wrap their arms around each of them!”

These trees were vibrant and they were all more than ten meters tall. It felt refreshing just standing in this forest.

Most interestingly, Qian Jin found that when he talked, his voice wouldn’t go further than a few meters; it seemed like these trees could absorb soundwaves. Also, it appeared that these trees absorbed their presences and auras, helping them achieve a certain degree of stealth.

Lucifer Lucy only stopped walking when she found an empty area inside the forest that wasn’t too big.

Qian Jin looked around and found that this was a natural hiding spot. The trees could stop their voices from echoing and spreading, and they could also block the radiation of their auras. Even if something happened here, it would be hard to attract other demons’ attention.

Qian Jin carefully took out the special magic conductor that he made for releasing and transforming energy. The base of this magic conductor was a disk, and the magic conductor looked like the paw of a dragon with the sharp claws pointing outward. The Heart of Lucifer could be perfectly placed inside.

Fei slowly took out the Heart of Lucifer, and waves of indescribable negative emotions rushed to Qian Jin’s brain like tsunamis. Pain, sadness, depression, desperation, violence…

Tink!

As soon as the Heart of Lucifer touched the dragon paw, the claws clenched inward and locked it down.

As if this metal sphere sensed danger, it let out a series of metal-buzzing noises. Then, it looked like bizarre liquor was stored inside this metal sphere, and the liquid started to move around aggressively. It seemed like it was going to jump out of the metal claws at any time.

The claws sensed the resistance of the metal sphere, and the magic runes engraved on the base emitted layer upon layer of brilliant light.

Buzz!

The giant shadow of a fallen angel suddenly rose from the Heart of Lucifer, and the three pairs of perfect black wings opened, looking like they wanted to engulf the world.

Then shadows of fallen angels flew out one after another, and they circled everyone in the sky and seemed like they were singing fancy music from the prehistoric era.

Pride, confidence, and beauty filled the music, and everyone who heard it seemed to have fallen into the perfect worlds in their minds.

“This…” Zence Matten looked around in confusion, and he saw his brothers, powerful demons, and many beautiful concubines kneeling before his imperial throne which was made of gold.

Further away, the human troops, demon troops, and barbarian troops all kneeled and waited for his inspection.

“I finally united humans, demons, and barbarians, and I became an emperor who surpassed Dragon Zence!” Zence Matten felt elated. Then, he was hit with endless disappointment; he felt very lonely looking at the people who were kneeling and didn’t dare to raise their heads.

Qian Jin, Duren Burg, Fanta Kunge, Cech Flet, Lucifer Lucy, and others respectfully kneeled in the very front, and they were in the most prestigious attires.

“This…” Zence Matten got even more disappointed, and he said, “You guys, look up.”

Qian Jin and others looked up, and all that Zence Matten could see were lights of admiration and loyalty. It made Zence Matten instantly squint his eyes; it seemed like the lights were too eye-piercing for him.

“How did this happen?” Zence Matten looked at Qian Jin and others, and he only felt more disappointment instead of joy.

“Isn’t this your life goal? Controlling everything in the world. No one will disobey you, and everyone is loyal to you. Everyone…”

“No…. No!” Zence Matten stared at Qian Jin and others, and he felt lonely and sad. He shook his head subconsciously and murmured, “No, this isn’t what I want. I don’t want this.”
