The Great Ruler (Web Novel)
chapter-1377

The sense of despair that could be heard in the girl’s shrill and aggrieved voice was enough to move anyone. At this time, the other natives in the city came to their senses upon hearing the young girl’s sad voice. They knelt down in the same direction where Mu Chen was, trembling, as if they were grasping for the last straw of hope.

“Divine Lord, please help us!” they all cried in unison.

Their voices kept ringing in the air, as deep despair was written on all of their faces. They had lost all of their dignity, and were looking at future lives like the kind that pigs and dogs in captivity would lead. The only purpose of their survivals seemed to be as a supply source of blood for the Fiend Blood Tribe!

Of course, they would be allowed to reproduce, but their offspring would also be kept in captivity like pigs and dogs. It was not that they did not think of resisting this captivity, but under such an absolutely powerful force, their resistance would undoubtedly be like a struggle of ants versus giants. It would have little effect, except to give some pleasure to those demons when they finally crushed them, just like ants! After all, those demons were unparalleled in power.

But now, such a mysterious and powerful presence had appeared when they had lost all hope. Although they did not know whether the mysterious young man was of their own kind, they were relieved to see that at least the person in front of them did not emanate a malicious aura! They finally began to believe that their fates might actually be changed by this mysterious youth!

At the thought of this, the innumerable natives frantically kowtowed their heads onto the ground, regardless of the blood that was flowing from their foreheads. After all, this flow of blood was a passing physical pain that was nothing compared to the shame of being held in captivity!

Mu Chen looked at this scene and sighed in his heart. At this moment, he finally understood why all of the Great Thousand World, in the face of the invasion of the Extraterritorial Race, would choose to abandon all of its grudges and fight together.

After all, if the Extraterritorial Race were to really dominate the Great Thousand World, all of the creatures would surely be enslaved in captivity, like the natives in this Lower Plane. As such, the Extraterritorial Race was the real enemy that they could not coexist with!

With a wave of his sleeve, a soft force swept across the area, helping those who were kowtowing to stand up. Mu Chen then looked around at the trembling eyes of the people and nodded slightly, then said, “Don’t worry, I will save you and free you from this place.”

These Lower Planes were part of the Great Thousand World. Although they were lower in level, they were still regarded as being part of the larger world.

Although they were seen as inferior, once the emergence of supreme talents had broken through the shackles of the world, they were bound to be true great heroes. As such, their future achievements were unlimited. Two examples of this phenomena were the the Flame Emperor and the Martial Ancestor.

Therefore, as these were people of the same Great Thousand World, even though Mu Chen was no saint, he would not sit by and let the Fiend Blood Tribe slaughter them like pigs and dogs!

“Thank you, Divine Lord!” The girl in front of him had tears all over her face as she thanked Mu Chen. The others were so excited that they wanted to kneel down again, but were held by a gentle force that made them unable to kneel.

“There seems to be another fellow in there…” Mu Chen said as he looked at the deepest part of the city. In his perception, there was a veiled, overbearing aura in the depths of the city, but it seemed to be in a slumber presently.

Hearing Mu Chen’s comment, the girl’s face turned ashen and her voice trembled with fear as she said, “Divine Lord, that is the Blood Demon General. His strength is extremely terrible. Since he is in a deep slumber now, let’s hurry up and leave before he wakes up.”

They were extremely terrified of the Blood Demon General because every time he woke up, he would consume the blood of thousands of people. He was incomparably brutal!

“Hmm… The Blood Demon General…” Mu Chen murmured and smiled, then suddenly clenched his fist.

As he did so, a giant sphere of light formed in his palm. He then threw it directly into the city’s depths, while innumerable frightened eyes watched him.

Boom!

As the spiritual ball of light exploded, countless buildings were razed. The next moment, a red column of blood rose to the sky and a low roar that was filled with hostility rang through the heavens and the earth.

“Who dares to disturb my sleep?” a voice demanded. The voice sounded more like a roar than anything.

Upon hearing this low roar, the natives of the city slumped down as their legs gave out from under them. Their faces were terrified, as the city’s most terrible Demon King had clearly awoken just now!

“We will all die…” someone cried out in terror.

There was despair in all of the people’s eyes. In their perception, the Blood Demon General was too terrifying. They feared that, even if the mysterious Divine Lord was powerful, he might not necessarily be able to defeat the Blood Demon General.

“Divine Lord, if the situation turns for the worse, please promise that you will leave!” the girl said, her face deathly pale.

Mu Chen looked at their fear and shook his head in exasperation. He had already realized the Blood Demon General’s strength, which should be equivalent to a Complete Earthly Sovereign’s in the Great Thousand World. Now, he was confident that he could easily crush him with just a flick of his finger.

“In the Fiend Blood Tribe, what grade is the Blood Demon General regarded as being?” Mu Chen asked.

The girl froze for a moment, then immediately shook her head, not sure of the answer. In their eyes, the Blood Demon General was like the King of Demons, hence, they could not even imagine there being any creatures that could be stronger.

Mu Chen was slightly disappointed, as it seemed that the information that these people knew was extremely limited.

“Divine Lord, we don’t know much, but the queen certainly would!” Looking at Mu Chen’s disappointment, the girl hastily added.

“The queen?” Mu Chen froze as he wondered… What kind of queen do these natives have?

But, before he could ask, a bloody light suddenly descended from the sky into the city’s depths. The light landed and transformed into a figure that was donned in red robes. On his fair body’s surface, there were many bloody runes, and he looked extremely unsettling.

Clearly, this was the Blood Demon General! After he appeared, he looked at the blood mist, his changing instantly. He then snapped in fury, “How dare you kill my people? Who did it? Get out!”

His roar turned into a rolling sonic boom that swept across the heavens and the earth, causing countless natives to tremble in fear.

“They are just some blood-sucking bed bugs. It’s nothing if they are dead, so why raise such a fuss?” Mu Chen raised his head and smiled at the Blood Demon General.

“You did it! You insolent brat!” Blood light surged in the Blood Demon General’s eyes as he glared at Mu Chen with murderous intent.

The next moment, a massive bloody beam of light burst from his body as his figure turned into afterimages before skimming through the space and charging towards Mu Chen. A terrible sea of blood roared behind the afterimages as they went..

Mu Chen looked at the rolling sea of blood and shook his head. The next moment, his eyes suddenly became cold as he clenched his fist and dealt out a heavy punch.

Boom!

A crystal light spread out of the blow, instantly bombarding the howling sea of blood.

Bang!

As the blow fell, the space shook. The earth also shattered into pieces, while the surging sea of blood exploded.

Within the sea of blood, a shrill cry was heard. Many of the natives were horrified to see a humiliated blood shadow fly out from the erupted sea of blood at that moment.

Bang! Bang!

The blood shadow smashed into countless buildings, then ploughed a deep trace trench on the ground as it flew out of the city due to the forceful impact of the blow. Mu Chen looked at the figure, and with a grip of his palm, he sent a force of intense suction surging outward. The figure, who was just blown away, was immediately sucked back and caught in Mu Chen’s grasp.

Mu Chen then bowed his head and looked at the extremely twisted and cold body. Seeing that there was still an incredulous look on the Blood Demon General’s face, the corners of Mu Chen’s mouth could not help but twitch.

He did not expect that the Blood Demon General would be so weak and vulnerable. After all, Mu Chen had been able to kill him with just a single blow!

“What a loser! I still wanted to pry some information out of you!” Mu Chen shook his head in exasperation, then threw the Blood Demon General’s body out like a piece of garbage.

Seeing this, the city grew dead silent. Those who had trembled in fear at the appearance of the Blood Demon General were frozen once again.

They felt that everything was so surreal at this moment. Not only had the Blood Demons been beaten to death like ants, but even the Blood Demon General, who was like a Demon King, had been annihilated in a single blow, all at the hands of the mysterious young man in front of them!

“Have I been tortured so much that this is all a hallucination from my tormented mind?” someone exclaimed in wonder.

Many other people were also murmuring in disbelief. All of these things were really too surreal. They could not imagine that there were such powerful people in this world!

“Divine Lord!” The beautiful girl looked fervently at Mu Chen as she wondered in her heart… Other than the legendary Divine Lord, who else could be so powerful?

Have the gods seen our despair? Did they come down to save us?

“Hurry up and go.” Seeing such a display of wonder and affection, Mu Chen smiled gently and waved at the crowd. Before waiting for them to say anything further, he vanished into thin air.

Seeing this, the girl and many of the natives panicked, but Mu Chen disappeared so quickly, they couldn’t stop him. Eventually, they all looked at each other with bitter smiles. Everyone then knelt down on the spot where Mu Chen had just disappeared from.

After a while, they got up again and began to flee the city frantically. They knew that there would soon be other Blood Demons from the Fiend Blood Tribe arriving, and if they did not escape, they would end up in captivity again. As the natives fled, Mu Chen flashed out in the sky. As he looked at the fleeing figures, he thought to himself…

They mentioned a queen. It sounds like she knows a lot about the Fiend Blood Tribe.

In the world that is occupied by the Fiend Blood Tribe, do they still have the strength to unite together and resist?

But… Their strength must not be strong enough to counteract the Fiend Blood Tribe…”

It seems that I need to follow them secretly for a while…
