The Great Ruler (Web Novel)
chapter-1224

"Xiao Yan, the Flame Emperor?" When the War Emperor's voice resounded in the area, the top powers were shocked. They stared in disbelief at the man standing beside Mu Chen. This name thundered in their minds. The Flame Emperor was famous in the Great Thousand World, and everyone had heard of him.

He was a legend.

Regardless of whether it was the divine force or the Endless Fire Territory that had been established a few hundred years ago to become the pillar of the Great Thousand World, not a single force dared to take the Flame Emperor lightly.

Although the War Emperor was famous, there was still a disparity as compared to the Flame Emperor. It was like a master versus the legend among the masters. It was rare to see such a prominent figure, but Mu Chen had managed to invite the legendary Flame Emperor over.

Suddenly, the top powers looked at Mu Chen in a different light. They became very fearful of him. They were more fearful of him now than they were of Mandela.

Xue Lingzi, who had been gloating over Mu Chen's misfortune earlier, froze. The top powers in the Blood God Clan turned pale and broke out into a cold sweat. They trembled as they looked at Mu Chen in fear.

Xue Lingzi wiped away the cold sweat on his face and felt dizzy. He had never expected a Heavenly Sovereign to fail in dealing with Mu Chen. This crazy fellow has invited the legendary figure in the Great Thousand World!

Xue Lingzi shouted frantically in his heart, What is Mu Chen's background!? If he had known that Mu Chen would invite the Flame Emperor, he would not have had the audacity to be so presumptuous. Logically speaking, a Lower Earthly Sovereign would not be able to get a Heavenly Sovereign to come over, even if he had thrown in his entire wealth!

It was impossible!

As Xue Lingzi and the rest were dumbfounded, the eyes of the top powers of the Luo God Clan brightened up. They started to admire Mu Chen from the bottom of their hearts. Before this, they were not very happy about his relationship with Luo Li, but now, they were convinced by his power.

Mu Chen was not only outstanding, but he had good connections and had the means to restrict a Heavenly Sovereign. Only such a man was worthy of their queen.

As the people looked on, the Flame Emperor stood with one hand behind his back. He did not possess the imposing power of the War Emperor, but everyone sensed that as he stood there, the oppression from the War Emperor that had engulfed the area dissipated instantly. Within split seconds, the horrifying oppression that had caused the top powers to tremble had disappeared.

The Flame Emperor ignored the people's gazes and looked at Luo God City fondly. He smiled and said, "I never thought that I would come back to Luo God City."

"Has Elder been to Luo God City before?" Mu Chen asked in amazement.

"Hahaha, I have a long history with the Luo God Clan." The Flame Emperor smiled and turned to look at Luo Tianshen. He smiled and said, "Elder Luo, we have not seen each other in a long time."

Luo Tianshen looked blankly at the Flame Emperor for a while and then sighed. He smiled wryly and said, "You are no longer the lost guy that I knew."

When the Flame Emperor first came to the Great Thousand World, he went to the Luo God Clan. Back then, he only possessed the fighting force that he had cultivated from the Lower Planes, and since the fighting force had not turned into spiritual energy, it was extremely weak. As he was not familiar with the Great Thousand World, he lost his way in Luo God City.

Luo Tianshen was already the Clan Leader of the Luo God Clan back then. He happened to see the Flame Emperor and had extended some help to him. However, the Flame Emperor left soon after that, as he had to look for his wife and friends.

Occasionally, Luo Tianshen would hear news of the Flame Emperor and learned that he had founded the Endless Fire Territory. He had become a Heavenly Sovereign in the Great Thousand World and was distinguished.

Luo Tianshen had thought of enlisting the Flame Emperor's help when his clan got into danger, but he had pushed the thought away. He had no idea if the simple deed that he had done was enough to invite the Flame Emperor over. After all, the Flame Emperor was now a renowned figure in the Great Thousand World.

At his level, he might have forgotten that he had ever come to Luo God City. Back then, Luo Tianshen had only extended some help to him, and it was not great enough to justify Luo Tianshen asking him for help. Moreover, there was a great disparity between them and the Heavenly Sovereign.

When the Flame Emperor heard what Luo Tianshen had said, he turned grim. He appeared before him and held Luo Tianshen's hands and said, "Elder Luo, how can you say this! I would be ungrateful if I were such a person. If you had not taught me to transform my fighting force into spiritual energy, I do not know how long I would have stayed ignorant. Moreover, I would have lived in regret for the rest of my life when I found my wife and friends."

Back then, his wife and friends were in grave danger, and if he had not found them in time, it would have been a disaster.

Luo Tianshen was shocked, as he did not know that he had done the Flame Emperor such a great favor. He then smiled and after hesitating for a while, patted the Flame Emperor on his palm.

"Is Elder Luo hurt?" The Flame Emperor looked at Luo Tianshen's sunken face and noticed that his spiritual energy was obscured.

Luo Tianshen smiled and said, "It is just some Blood Demon Poison."

Back then, when Luo Tianshen had fought with Xue Lingzi, he had been poisoned by him. His power had weakened over the years, and if this continued, he would be killed by the Blood Demon Poison one day. The poison was extremely powerful, and as it had stayed in his body for too long, even a Complete Earthly Sovereign could not purge it completely from him.

The Flame Emperor smiled and said, "This is a piece of cake." Having said that, he patted Luo Tianshen's hand, and a beautiful flame entered into his body. In the next instant, Luo Tianshen's face turned red and drops of stinky blood flowed out from his nose and dissipated.

Within split seconds, Luo Tianshen's face became rosy, and his spiritual energy began to flow smoothly. He was elated, as the Blood Demon Poison that had been torturing him for years had been purged effortlessly.

After the Flame Emperor had purged the Blood Demon Poison from Luo Tianshen's body, Xue Lingzi broke out into a cold sweat and turned pale. He had not expected Mu Chen to invite the Flame Emperor over, and he was even more shocked to learn that the legendary Flame Emperor was Luo Tianshen's friend!

Xue Lingzi was now trembling with fear. He would not have dared to push the Luo God Clan into a corner if he knew their relationship with the Flame Emperor.

"Elder Luo, what has happened to your clan?" the Flame Emperor asked with a smile after he looked at the situation in the sky.

After hesitating for a while, Luo Tianshen told him what had happened in detail. "I never expected Mu Chen to be able to invite you over…" Luo Tianshen said and smiled wryly.

The Flame Emperor nodded. He turned to smile at Mu Chen and said, "Friend, thank you for inviting me over. Otherwise, I would not have had the chance to return the favor."

Mu Chen scratched his head. He had had no choice but to ask the Flame Emperor for help, and he never expected the Flame Emperor to thank him for doing so.

The Flame Emperor smiled at Luo Tianshen and then lifted up his head to look at the oppressive War Emperor. He smiled and said, "I heard of your name long ago. It is my pleasure to be able to meet you today."

The War Emperor looked gravely at the Flame Emperor and said, "I have also heard of you."

"Although I should not interfere in the matters of the Western Kingdom Continent, I am indebted to the Luo God Clan. I hope you will do me a favor and not make things difficult for them and Mu Chen," the Flame Emperor said and smiled warmly.

The War Emperor squinted. The Flame Emperor was indeed well-known in the Great Thousand World, and the Endless Fire Territory was not to be trifled with. However, as the formidable War Emperor, he had never been afraid of anyone!

It was a small matter if he let the Luo God Clan off this day. However, when the people learned of this, they would think that he was afraid of the Flame Emperor. This concerned his reputation and was a serious matter.

The War Emperor pursed his lips, and after pondering for a while, his words caused the top powers to tremble. "What if I said… I do not wish to do you this favor?"
