The Great Ruler

Chapter 1443 - Backing

When that Immortal Heavenly Sovereign’s cautious voice resounded, it caused the entire region to be silent. It was even more for Qin Beixuan and the two other Heavenly Sovereigns, who were looking at the former with shock.

“Brother Lu, you?!” Qin Beixuan’s face was unsightly. He had no idea why his helper would suddenly be so courteous and even fearful of a young Heavenly Sovereign.

The other Heavenly Sovereigns also had astonishment on their faces, and everyone in the hall also looked at each other.

Mu Chen was briefly stunned before he looked at that Immortal Heavenly Sovereign and nodded his head. “If you’re talking about Mu Chen of the Mu Abode, that’s me.”

After receiving Mu Chen’s confirmation, that Immortal Heavenly Sovereign felt a little relieved with fear gathering in his eyes before he cupped his hands together. “So it’s the Abode Ruler, I apologise for offending you.”

“Brother Lu!” Qin Beixuan called out again.

That Immortal Heavenly Sovereign sighed before he turned to Qin Beixuan. “Brother Qin, for the sake of our long years of acquaintance, I suggest you let this matter rest.”

Qin Beixuan’s face was slightly distorted, but the two other Heavenly Sovereigns had also sensed that something was amiss and looked at Mu Chen before they asked, “Brother Lu, who is this person?”

At this moment, they could sense the fear that the Immortal Heavenly Sovereign had for Mu Chen, even if they’re stupid. Since even an Immortal Heavenly Sovereign was so fearful, not to mention them when they’re just Spirit Heavenly Sovereigns.

That Immortal Heavenly Sovereign sighed, “This place is far from the Ancient Buddha Clan, so it’s natural that you guys are still unaware of it yet. This Ruler of the Mu Abode has charged into the Ancient Buddha Clan by himself and defeated the Elders of the Ancient Buddha Clan. In the end, the Grand Elder, Futu Xuan, had to make a move to stop him.”

Hearing those words, even Qin Beixuan’s face had changed. He knew about the Ancient Buddha Clan’s position in the Great Thousand World. That’s one of the Five Ancient Clans with a powerful foundation.

Even the likes of his Northern Profound Sect paled in comparison to the Ancient Buddha Clan. The Grand Elder of the Ancient Buddha Clan was a Saint Heavenly Sovereign, a pinnacle existence in the Great Thousand World.

So they could tell how terrifying Mu Chen was, since he could force Futu Xuan to make a move.

“How is that possible? He’s just a Spirit Heavenly Sovereign.” The two other Heavenly Sovereigns also felt that it was unbelievable. The number of Immortal Heavenly Sovereigns in the Ancient Buddha Clan was more than the fingers on two hands, and they could pile Mu Chen to death in numbers alone.

“Back then, he controlled the Protective Spiritual Array of the Ancient Buddha Clan to suppress all the Elders in the Ancient buddha Clan. Even the Late Phase Immortal Heavenly Sovereigns of the Xuan and Mo Bloodlines weren’t his opponent.” That Immortal Heavenly Sovereign continued to explain.

When the two other Heavenly Sovereigns heard his words, they inwardly smacked their lips. Wasn’t Mu Chen a little too insane? He could even do something so terrifying? Wasn’t he just offending the Ancient Buddha Clan?

Qin Beixuan’s face was also grave, but he had felt a little relief. It turned out that Mu Chen was relying on the Protective Spiritual Array of the Ancient Buddha Clan, and that power didn’t belong to himself.

“He’s indeed capable of being able to achieve this, but I still don’t see why you’re so afraid of him. He has offended the Ancient Buddha Clan, and yet he can still act so fearlessly?” Qin Beixuan commented.

Mu Chen’s achievements had made him feel shocked, but it wasn’t sufficient to cause an Immortal Heavenly Sovereign to be so fearful.

Shaking his head, that Immortal Heavenly Sovereign replied, “Don’t underestimate his cultivation, he has even defeated an Initial Phase Immortal Heavenly Sovereign Elder from the Ancient Buddha Clan by relying on his ability.

“Furthermore... why do you think that he’s unharmed even after flipping the Ancient Buddha Clan around?”

His words had instantly caused shock in the three other Heavenly Sovereigns. Such a clan like the Ancient Buddha Clan was extremely concerned about their reputation, and Mu Chen’s actions could be considered as having humiliated them. According to logic, the Ancient Buddha Clan shouldn’t have let him go so easily, so why was he so lively here, standing before them...?

What did that mean? That meant that even the Ancient Buddha Clan wasn’t able to do anything to him!

“This Mu Chen has a deep friendship with the Endless Fire Territory’s Flame Emperor and Martial Realm’s Martial Ancestor. After he flipped the entire Ancient Buddha Clan upside down, the Flame Emperor and Martial Ancestor even provided support to him.” The Immortal Heavenly Sovereign continued to explain.

Hearing those words, the three Heavenly Sovereigns’ faces changed once again. The Flame Emperor and Martial Ancestor were famous figures in the Great Thousand World, and they’re Saint Heavenly Sovereigns that stood on the peak.

Yet, this Mu Chen had a deep relationship with them? It was so much so that they would even offend the Ancient Buddha Clan?

“No wonder... with those two supporting him, even the Ancient Buddha Clan would be fearful.” The two Heavenly Sovereigns sighed.

The Immortal Heavenly Sovereign smiled before he continued, “That’s not the most important factor. Do you know why Mu Chen went to the Ancient Buddha Clan? It was to save his mother.

“His mother had a love affair with his father in the Hundred Spirit Continent, causing the Ancient Buddha Clan to be furious and imprison her. Mu Chen went over to rescue his mother.

“Furthermore, his mother is also terrifying... She has seized Futu Xuan’s status as a Grand Elder upon her appearance, and she’s also a Saint Grade Spiritual Array Ancestor. That means that the current Grand Elder of the Ancient Buddha Clan is his mother.”

His words had instantly caused the three Heavenly Sovereigns to widen their mouths with astonishment on their faces. The mother of this Mu Chen was the new Grand Elder of the Ancient Buddha Clan?!

No wonder Mu Chen wasn’t held responsible despite causing such a mess, so his mother held the highest authority!

The two other Heavenly Sovereigns exchanged a look. They clearly felt like retreating, since they knew the consequences for offending Mu Chen.

Not only the Endless Fire Territory and Martial Realm, but there’s also the Ancient Buddha Clan, now...

Those were powerful existences in the Great Thousand World that could cause the entire world to shake with a stomp of their feet. Although they’re Heavenly Sovereigns that received the respect of countless others, they knew their distance when compared to a Saint Heavenly Sovereign...

With that kind of backing, not many people in the Great Thousand World would dare to offend Mu Chen.

Qin Beixuan’s face instantly turned pale. He initially thought that Mu Chen was an ordinary Spirit Heavenly Sovereign, but he never expected that the latter would have such backing that even made him feel fearful.

Right now, he had fallen into a predicament.

While Qin Beixuan hesitated, that Immortal Heavenly Sovereign’s face suddenly changed, so the former asked, “What’s wrong again?”

That Immortal Heavenly Sovereign’s gaze flickered before he looked at the silhouette standing behind Mu Chen and felt his scalp going numb. “You see that woman? She looks like Mu Chen’s mother...”

Hearing his words, Qin Beixuan instantly felt his mind exploding with fear, which was shown on the faces of the two other Heavenly Sovereigns. They cautiously looked over, since they initially didn’t pay too much attention to anyone in the hall. But looking at her right now, they could vaguely feel pressure coming from her.

“That’s her! That’s her! She’s Mu Chen’s mother, and the current Grand Elder of the Ancient Buddha Clan, Qing Yanjing!” That Immortal Heavenly Sovereign finally confirmed and showed a smile that was more unsightly than crying.

The two other Heavenly Sovereigns also felt a chill down their spines. They’re actually going to deal with the son of a Saint Grade Spiritual Array Ancestor before her son? They couldn’t imagine what their outcome would be if they really made a move.

Shortly after, they looked at Qin Beixuan. “Brother Qin, we’re nearly doomed because of you.”

Their tone sounded like a grumble. It was fine for Qin Beixuan to call them over to help; however, Qin Beixuan didn’t even investigate who they were going to deal with, and that’s akin to digging a hole for them to jump in.

While Qin Beixuan’s face turned pale, he bitterly smiled. “It was my fault, I never expected that that rebellious son of mine would cause such trouble.

“We’ll go meet her and see if we can settle this matter.” Qin Beixuan wanted to probe and see if that woman really was the Grand Elder of the Ancient Buddha Clan.

The three other Heavenly Sovereigns nodded their heads.

Thus, the four Heavenly Sovereigns, who initially came in a ferocious manner, descended from the roof.

“Father! Father!” The Hundred Spirit King’s face was instantly covered in joy as he hollered.

However, Qin Beixuan paid no attention to his son, but came to the Northern Spiritual Alliance and bowed towards Qing Yanjing, who was standing beside Mu Feng.

“May I ask if you’re the Grand Elder of the Ancient Buddha Clan?” Qin Beixuan’s nervous voice resounded within the hall, causing the joy on the Hundred Spirit King’s face to freeze as he dumbfoundedly looked at this scene with disbelief.

Those of the Northern Spiritual Alliance who were still chatting with Qing Yanjing with smiles were shocked as they looked at her and gulped down a mouthful of saliva.

Evidently, they had no idea why the four Heavenly Sovereigns would suddenly bow towards Qing Yanjing.

Looking at their respectful bows, Qing Yanjing was briefly stunned before she nodded with a smile. “I am Qing Yanjing.”

Her words were like a bucket of cold water that instantly made Qin Beixuan feel cold.

They’re really blind. They actually behaved like monkeys before a Saint Grade Spiritual Array Ancestor...
