The Great Ruler Chapter 1354 – Master of the Mu Estate

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

The sudden scene in the main hall shocked everyone, and when Mandela and Liu Tiandao’s exclamations rang out, the crowd suddenly returned to their senses. However, everyone’s attention was focused on the Purple Edict that Mu Chen had just crushed.

That Purple Edict represented the Purple Cloud Sect. Over the years, no one dared to reject the Purple Cloud Sect’s invitations, let alone crush them in public! Doing so would be regarded as having committed a disrespectful act towards the Purple Cloud Sect, which would lead to a great disaster.

“Is he the Master of our Mu Estate?”

“He’s too young and brash. Now that he has crushed the Purple Edict, we are in deep trouble!”

“He is too impulsive!”

Many Sovereigns’ faces were gloomy as they whispered among themselves. Although they felt pleased by the gesture, they also knew that the Mu Estate could not bear the brunt of the Purple Cloud Sect’s fury.

“It seems that disaster is on the horizon, and the Mu Estate is in danger. We have to save ourselves,” someone from the crowd declared.

Inside the hall, there was an uproar. Many powerful Sovereigns had clearly been frightened by Mu Chen’s bold actions. After all, even without the Purple Cloud Sect, there were three Complete Earthly Sovereigns present, whose strengths were surely enough to annihilate the Mu Estate!

Liu Tiandao and the Netherworld Palace Master, who were among the first to join the Mu Estate, also frowned. They sighed and secretly shook their heads, thinking that today’s events were not going to end well.

As the commotion in the hall continued, the three elders of the Purple Cloud Sect finally reacted. The white-haired old man’s smile vanished upon seeing the Purple Edict shattered, and his eyes grew cold.

“Haha, how bold of you. For the first time in all these years, I have seen someone smash the Purple Edict of my Purple Cloud Sect!” the white-haired old man said darkly. His gaze was as sharp as a blade as he glared at Mu Chen.

“From now on, there is one then.” Mu Chen casually flicked the dust away from his palms as he spoke nonchalantly, “I’ll give you 10 seconds to leave the Mu Estate.”

Mu Chen’s gaze swept over the terrified sovereigns. He remembered those who had been frightened and retreated due to their own fears. Such people, who only looked after themselves, were of no use to the Mu Estate at such a critical juncture.

Hearing Mu Chen’s words, the white-haired man and the other two were startled. They immediately laughed, and their laughter rumbled like thunder, shaking the whole hall.

Liu Tiandao and the others looked at each other, clearly confused about why Mu Chen did not fear the three Complete Earthly Sovereigns. They couldn’t help but to glance at Mandela. However, she remained silent, while staring at Mu Chen’s silhouette contemplatively.

“I had no idea that the Master of the Mu Estate was such a young brat who overestimates himself!” The white-haired old man shook his head in lament, then said, “In that case, there is no need for the Mu Estate to exist.”

Boom!

The moment his last word fell, his robes billowed out and the vast expanse of spiritual energy swept out of him. The whole hall shook as if it were about to be broken.

“I’ll start with you, brat!” The white-haired old man smiled chillingly.

Then, as he took a step forward, his body appeared like a specter in front of Mu Chen. He dealt out a blow as the space under his palm cracked, revealing the extreme power of this blow.

Inside the hall, many powerful Sovereigns saw that Zi Tianbei intended to kill Mu Chen on the spot, so they let out cries of surprise. No matter what, he was the Master of the Mu Estate, and if he died here, they knew that the Mu Estate would have no need to exist.

Liu Tiandao and the others’ faces changed as they grit their teeth and were about to act to protect Mu Chen. However, Mandela waved to signal them to stop.

“Master Mandela!” they couldn’t help but exclaim in unison.

Mandela’s face was cold as she stared at Mu Chen’s back. When Mu Chen appeared, she was acutely aware of the subtle pressure he was emanating. This pressure revealed to her that Mu Chen was no longer like he was before he left.

Boom!

Amid many appalled gazes in the hall, the white-haired old man dealt his blow. But, when it was about to land on Mu Chen’s chest, Mu Chen lifted his palm lightly. Like he was swatting a fly, he countered the white-haired old man’s palm with a fluttering touch.

Bong!

A muffled sound rang out, while many sovereigns began to close their eyes, unwilling to see Mu Chen be annihilated on the spot. However, just as they were about to close their eyes completely, they suddenly saw a figure floundering about.

The atmosphere in the hall suddenly descended into a strange silence. They could all clearly see that the figure who flew backwards and was floundering was actually the Purple Cloud Sect’s Zi Tianbei!

Whoosh!

Everyone stared incredulously at the place where Mu Chen was standing, as they saw that he had maintained his unmoving stance throughout the entire interchange! They were all speechless and wondered…

The white-haired elder’s brutal fist had no effect on Mu Chen, but he himself flew out instead?

Spurt.

Zi Tianbei’s figure finally stabilized as he spewed out a mouthful of blood. He stared at Mu Chen, appalled.

In their previous contact, he was clearly aware of the terrifying power that was coming from Mu Chen’s palm. That power was a source of horror, even to a Complete Earthly Sovereign like him. At this point, he realized that Mu Chen was a tiger that was masquerading as a pig!

“Half step to Complete Earthly Sovereign?” Zi Tianbei glared at Mu Chen as he grit his teeth.

When they had clashed earlier, Mu Chen’s spiritual energy fluctuations had erupted. That was a clear sign that he was at the level of Half step to Complete Earthly Sovereign. But, what was so befuddling was how Mu Chen could crush his opponent with just this mere rank!

Woah!

As soon as this remark was uttered, many of the sovereigns in the hall were also shocked. Liu Tiandao and the others found this even more implausible. After all, when Mu Chen left the Mu Estate, he was only a Lower Earthly Sovereign.

In only a year or so, he had risen to Half step to Complete Earthly Sovereign! Moreover, the most terrifying thing was that, as a Half step to Complete Earthly Sovereign, he could suppress Zi Tianbei, who was a Complete Earthly Sovereign!

“This boy is cunning! We must attack him together!” Zi Tianbei snapped.

He knew that Mu Chen was no pushover. As such, he knew that fighting him alone would be a fruitless endeavor.

Beside him, the other two Complete Earthly Sovereigns of the Purple Cloud Sect nodded gravely. Murderous intent condensed in their eyes as they glared at Mu Chen.

Whoosh!

However, before they could strike together, Mu Chen suddenly stepped forward. As the space distorted, he appeared in front of the three.

“Unleash the Sovereign Celestial Body!” the three men roared in unison, while a vast spiritual light gathered behind them as they summoned the Sovereign Celestial Body.

As a giant shadow emerged in the aura behind them, a crystal-lit palm burst into the air, thundering through their spiritual defenses and patting them gently on their chest.

Boom!

A muffled sound rang out again, while everyone’s eyelids in the main hall twitched. They saw the three figures shoot out, then collide into the stone pillars in the hall.

Spurt.

Blood was spraying from three men’s mouths, and they immediately felt their spiritual powers beginning to fade. They lowered their heads in a hurry, seeing a crystal palm imprint on each of their chests.

As the crystal spiritual energy surged into their bodies, wherever it passed, it suppressed the spiritual energy in their bodies, causing it to no longer be controlled by them. It was as if it had been sealed.

In just a few moments, their powerful spiritual energy fluctuations dissipated entirely. The trio’s eyes finally filled with fear at this moment, as Mu Chen’s methods were too terrifying!

“Let’s go!” they exclaimed in unison.

Their faces were ashen as they summoned their last dredges of spiritual energy and charged out of the hall. They were horrified by Mu Chen’s strength. Mu Chen looked at them like they were homeless dogs, but did not try to stop them.

Boom!

However, when they rushed out of the main hall, a violent spiritual power whistled through suddenly. Everyone then saw the three fly back into the hall and land on the floor again, utterly humiliated.

“Before our Young Master has granted you an official leave, you three old dogs dared to leave?” Outside the hall, a boisterous laugh rang out, while the public saw two figures walk into the hall.

The first person was a beautiful woman in a white dress, who had a cool countenance. Behind her was a burly man, who was cracking his fists against each other, while gazing at Zi Tianbei and the other two fiercely.

A powerful spiritual energy fluctuation surrounded him, revealing that he was also a Complete Earthly Sovereign. Apparently, it was the burly man who had struck the three just now.

Mu Chen then lowered his head and stared calmly at the terrified Zi Tianbei and the other two. “Do you three really think that you can come and leave as you please?”

There was silence in the hall, and everyone was staring at the three Complete Earthly Sovereigns, all of whom were shaking in front of Mu Chen. Seeing that the three had lost all semblance of their previous arrogance, they could not help but feel a sense of pride rising in their hearts. They looked at Mu Chen in fear and reverence, no longer holding the doubts of the past.

Such a spirit, such powerful means…

Is he the true Master of the Mu Estate?
