The Great Ruler (Web Novel)
chapter-773

Liu Yan stood up on the upper floor of the Dragon-Phoenix Haven. His figure wasn’t gigantic, but it had instantly caused the atmosphere in the Dragon-Phoenix Haven to be oppressed in an instant.

Vaguely, a formless oppression spread out, it was Liu Yan’s pressure.

As someone who was ranked fourth on the Dragon-Phoenix Haven, Liu Yan’s prestige amongst the younger generations of the Northern Region had clearly exceeded Mu Chen’s many times. In the eyes of many, the two of them weren’t on the same level.

Although Mu Chen had exerted a swift means to defeat Lu Yang, no one thought that he would be Liu Yan’s opponent.

The atmosphere around Mu Chen suddenly froze as the Spiritual Energy pressure descended from the sky in an attempt to overwhelm him.

With Liu Yan’s strength, if it was an ordinary Third Grade Sovereign, that person would definitely be left in a miserable state from his Spiritual Energy pressure. But evidently, Mu Chen wasn’t in that group.

Lightning flickered on Mu Chen’s body as vague thunderous roars resounded from his body. When the crushing Spiritual Energy pressure enveloped over, it did not cause any oppression towards him.

The two of them exchanged gazes through the air and the chill even greatly lowered the temperature in the Dragon-Phoenix Pavilion.

“Looks like you’ve grown since we last met. It’s no wonder why you dared to act with such arrogance!” Liu Yan coldly said as his voice contained a trace of killing intent. Shortly after, his gaze abruptly turned sharp as he bent two of his fingers and pointed down.

“With your strength at Third Grade Sovereign, you’re still unqualified to be arrogant before me.”

That instant when Liu Yan pointed his fingers down, circles of visible fluctuation were formed in space as a scarlet light abruptly swept out like blooming flames.

“Burning Demon Finger.”

When Liu Yan’s cold voice resounded, a huge and thick finger was formed from the scarlet light that spread out. Flames were blazing as the high temperature instantly caused the entire Dragon-Phoenix Pavilion to scorch and dry.

Boom!

When the huge finger was formed, it had directly pierced through space as it pressed down towards Mu Chen.

The experts that were nearby Mu Chen instantly burst in retreat. They were afraid to be affected my Liu Yan’s powerful attack as well. However, Cai Xiao had remained unmoving.

She smiled as she looked at the confrontation, but showed no intention of rendering help. Her pair of clear eyes were filled with interest.

Rumble!

Looking at the huge flaming finger that was pressing down, Mu Chen’s black pupils were calm as he clenched his fists and two different Spiritual Energy surged out from his palms.

Roar!

A dragon roar and elephant howl resounded at the same time as two beams of light shot out from Mu Chen’s palms, forming into a dragon and elephant. The dragon and elephant intertwined and formed a dragon-elephant light disc that clashed with the huge flaming finger.

Boom!

A huge clash resounded as violent Spiritual Energy fluctuations swept out, causing ripples in the space as well, before the dragon-elephant light disc burst forth with dazzling light and shattered together with the huge flaming finger.

Spiritual Energy ripples swept towards the two of them but were casually dispelled away by them.

As the Spiritual Energy fluctuations in mid-air gradually dissipated, Liu Yan’s gaze turned even sharper. Although it was just a casual attack that he had executed earlier, his attack was enough to suppress any Third Grade Sovereign, but it was also casually dissolved by Mu Chen. He was clearly extremely unsatisfied with this outcome.

When everyone sensed the shocking Spiritual Energy ripples and chilling intent discharged from Liu Yan, their faces instantly changed.

The red-dressed girl beside him had her eyes slightly flashing but she had chosen to do nothing but watch as a bystander; she did not have too close of a relationship with Liu Yan. Although the young man called Mu Chen only showed a cultivation at Third Grade Sovereign, as someone with meticulous thinking like her would definitely not belittle him. It was best for her not to touch such waters which had unclear depths.

Looking at Liu Yan, Mu Chen’s gaze flickered with cold light. He knew that it wasn’t wise to fight here, but if Liu Yan truly wished to act, then he wouldn’t mind letting him know that the weakling in Liu Yan’s eyes wasn’t as weak as he had thought he’d be.

“If you don’t want to be thrown out of the Dragon-Phoenix Pavilion, then leave here by yourself.” Liu Yan looked at Mu Chen from high up as he pointed at the door of the Dragon-Phoenix Pavilion and said with a faint voice.

Mu Chen smiled in response, “Then I will have to trouble Young Palace Master Liu Yan to do it yourself.”

“Impudence!”

Liu Yan’s eyes thoroughly turned cold as his figure moved. Terrifying Spiritual Energy instantly swept out from his body like a storm. Along with boundless Spiritual Energy, his figure had turned into a streak of light and shot towards Mu Chen.

Mu Chen narrowed his eyes as space fluctuated behind him with his Sovereign Sea faintly visible. Boundless Spiritual Energy whistled out as two completely different attributes of Spiritual Energy swiftly gathered in his hands. Also, there were dragon roars and elephant howls that resounded from his Sovereign Sea as well.

Mu Chen’s body swiftly electrified with lightning flickering as he stomped his feet. He had burst up, directly charging towards Liu Yan head-on.

In the Dragon-Phoenix Pavilion, countless experts had their minds shaken at this scene. Could it that before the Dragon-Phoenix Haven even opens, there would be a pinnacle-level battle taking place here?

Under the countless gazes in the Dragon-Phoenix Pavilion, two figures skimmed over. However, just when the two of them were about to clash, a gentle voice suddenly resounded in the Dragon-Phoenix Pavilion.

“Gentlemen, the Dragon-Phoenix Pavilion is not a suitable place to fight, please stop.”

When that gentle voice resounded, a white light descended from the sky and came between Mu Chen and Liu Yan. A gentle white light spread out as it stopped the two’s movements.

Although this energy could not truly stop the two of them, Liu Yan’s eyes had narrowed when the voice resounded. He stopped moving and stared, before bursting out in retreat to the upper floors.

Mu Chen had also landed down on the ground as the Spiritual Energy around him dispersed, before looking towards the left. He saw a peerless beauty standing there.

She wore a white dress with a charming appearance that wasn’t inferior to the red-dressed girl. Between her brows, there was a red mark that added a more holy flavour to her entire existence.

When she appeared, Mu Chen could sense the trembling commotion that broke out in the Dragon-Phoenix Pavilion with many gazes containing a deep envy.

“Gentlemen, the Dragon-Phoenix Pavilion will soon release the information regarding the Dragon-Phoenix Haven this time, so I hope that the both of you can stop fighting.” The white-dressed girl lightly smiled as she looked at the two of them and said in a gentle voice.

“Haha, so it’s Fairy Su Biyue.” Liu Yan looked at the white-dressed girl as a graceful smile appeared on his face as he nodded his head. “Since Fairy has opened your mouth, then I will let him off this time.”

Down below, Mu Chen lightly laughed out upon hearing Liu Yan’s words. Hearing Mu Chen’s laughter, Liu Yan’s gaze turned cold, but he did not act out again. However, the killing intent he had for Mu Chen in his heart grew even denser.

Mu Chen paid no attention to Liu Yan, since he understood that he was just finding a stage to step down. The Dragon-Phoenix Pavilion was filled with hidden dragons and crouching tigers, with at least ten auras that even Mu Chen felt danger from, which Liu Yan should have already sensed.

If he were to fight with Mu Chen here, he would have to pay some price, even if he won in the end. At that time, he might even be taken advantage of by others. After all, everyone understood that they were all competitors upon entering the Dragon-Phoenix Haven. A strong competitor like Liu Yan, anyone would choose to eliminate him first if there was a chance.

But what left Mu Chen a little unexpected was that this white-dressed girl was the third-ranking on the Dragon-Phoenix Record, the Holy Maiden of the Myriad Saint Mountains, Su Biyue. It was no wonder why she would possess such shocking strength.

“Keke. Big Sister Su, why did you have to stop such a good show, how disappointing.” A tender laughter rang out as the red-dressed girl looked at Su Biyue with her eyes narrowed. Her arched brows were so extremely charming that she made the throats of others uncontrollably, slightly roll.

“If you want a good show, there will not be any lacking in the Dragon-Phoenix Haven. At that time, Little Sister Hong Yu will be able to enjoy all you want.” Su Biyue lightly said with a slight smile.

“That works, but Big Sister has to be cautious this time. You won’t be able to win this time if you still use small tricks like before.” Hong Yue chuckled.

“Let’s hope so.” Su Biyue nodded her head.

When the two beauties spoke, the Dragon-Phoenix Pavilion became quieter. Anyone could hear the swords hidden in their words. But it wasn’t unexpected. After all, the grudges between Su Biyue and Hong Yu were well-known in the Northern Region. Therefore, many people had their interests aroused as the fight between this two seductresses was definitely more expecting than Mu Chen and Liu Yan.

Mu Chen did not have much interest in the grudges of the two girls. After seeing Liu Yan lose his intention to fight, he had also decided to return to his seat.

“This friend from the Great Havenlaw Domain, if you’re interested, I wonder if I can invite you to the upper floors?” Just when Mu Chen was about to return to his seat, Su Biyue’s gaze suddenly directed over as she lightly smiled.

Judging from her looks, she seemed to have taken a little interest in Mu Chen.

“Keke. Little handsome brother, why don’t you come sit with Big Sister?” Hong Yu directed her charming gaze towards Mu Chen as well. Her arched brows could even cause a person’s bones to turn soft.

Rustle!

In the Dragon-Phoenix Pavilion, countless gazes were instantly directed at Mu Chen as unconcealable jealousy flashed in their eyes.

Mu Chen was also stunned and couldn’t help twitching the corner of his lips.

At this time, he would clearly offend someone no matter who he chose.

Mu Chen would rather offend someone like Liu Yan instead of these peerless beauties that possessed both strength and scheming hearts… Their threats exceeded Liu Yan’s as well.

However, just when Mu Chen was feeling a headache for this issue, Cai Xiao, who was watching from the side, lightly smiled. That layer of smile nearly caused the countless gazes in the Dragon-Phoenix Pavilion to light up. It was so much so that even the eyes of peerless beauties like Su Biyue and Hong Yu had lit up as well.

Thereafter, the girl’s crisp and clear voice rang out in this Dragon-Phoenix Pavilion.

“Two Big Sisters, are you going to snatch him from me?”
