The Great Ruler (Web Novel)-Chapter 1540 - Swords, Blades, Blood, and Fire

When the Fiend Clans appeared in the view of the Great Thousand World, a war descended and lit a fire in the defences of the Great Thousand World…

Blood and fire, it disrupted the peace in the Great Thousand World for the past 49,000 years.

It was as if they were trying to vent the anger previously brought by the suppression of the Great Thousand World. The invasion of the Fiend Clans came ferociously with demonic beings being akin to locusts that flew across the horizon, engulfed in demonic aura…

Facing the invading Fiend Clans, the Great Thousand World had also exploded with intense retaliation after a brief silence.

Battles started breaking out in the long line of defences as they unfolded a brilliant light of fireworks.

However, those fireworks were created with blood.

…

Beyond the layer of defences stood a majestic city with spiritual radiance spreading out and enveloping the line of defence within it. Under the radiance, even the recovery of Spiritual Energy has quickened.

This city was a fortress that could be considered as the main camp of the Great Thousand Alliance with the Flame Emperor and Martial Ancestor personally holding the fort to defend against the descent of the Heavenly Evil Monarch.

The surrounding city permeated a radiance. It was an array of the Spiritual Array Ancestor level. It is known as the Heavenly Spirit Circulation Array that Qing Yanjing and other Spiritual Array Grandmasters worked together to create. Within the range of the Spiritual Array, the life forms of the Great Thousand World would receive an increased speed in their Spiritual Energy and even amplify their strength. It was a weapon of war.

It was precisely because of this Spiritual Array, that the layers of defence managed to resist the Fiend Clans’ attacks.

At the highest point of the market stood a majestic palace with many people inside it, and every single one of them was permeating a powerful Spiritual Energy fluctuation.

The two leaders sat on their thrones. They were naturally the Flame Emperor and Martial Ancestor, since they’re practically the leaders of the Great Thousand Palace’s forces at this moment. Not even the Great Thousand Palace Lord, Qin Tian, had any objection.

In the palace, Qin Tian, the Azure Sword Saint, True Dragon Emperor, and various other Late Phase Saint Heavenly Sovereigns were gathered over, representing the pinnacle strength of the Great Thousand World.

Within the palace, everyone wore grave expressions with their bodies tensed up and surging Spiritual Energy around them.

As the Flame Emperor and Martial Ancestor exchanged a look, they said, “Since everyone knows that the Fiend Clans have launched their attacks, the battle for the life and death of our Great Thousand World has begun…”

Their words caused everyone to narrow their eyes and they were shrouded in killing aura.

“Flame Emperor, Martial Ancestor, please give out the orders. My Great Thousand World is willing to fight with the Fiend Clans to the death!” Qin Tian cupped his hands together.

Everyone’s eyes burst with sharpness. This was an impending battle, and to protect their own sects, family, and friends, they could only fight with the Fiend Clans.

Nodding his head, the Flame Emperor’s voice resounded with killing intent, “Heed my orders. Lead your subordinates and rush to the frontlines. Every single one of the continents at the frontlines is required to have a Late Phase Saint Heavenly Sovereign to defend against the Sky Monarchs of the Fiend Clans.”

“Roger!” Qin Tian and the other Late Phase Saint Heavenly Sovereigns responded.

“The Fiend Clans have dominated many Lesser Planes, and some of them are connected to the inner territories of the Great Thousand World. So we will form patrolling teams to patrol around and sweep any Fiend Clans that have invaded!”

“Roger!” Everyone hollered in response.

As the Martial Ancestor looked at everyone, he declared, “The Flame Emperor and I will be staying here, since we’re not able to participate in the fight directly. So we will need your help to stabilise the situation.”

“Martial Ancestor, why is that?” There were someone puzzled, since the fight would definitely be troublesome with the lack of the Flame Emperor and Martial Ancestor in the fight.

Raising his head, the Flame Emperor’s eyes flickered with sparks as he looked through space and replied, “The Heavenly Evil Monarch has already set his eyes on the two of us, so we have to set our eyes on him, too.”

Although the Heavenly Evil Monarch did not appear, the descending power was something that a Saint Heavenly Sovereign could endure.

Hence, both sides kept each other in restraint.

Everyone’s hearts shivered as they felt a chill down their spines, as if they were being eyed upon.

“Flame Emperor, Martial Ancestor, please be reassured. The Great Thousand World is our home, and to protect this world, we will fight with our lives on the line.” The Heavenly Sovereigns responded solemnly.

Under the enormous pressure from the Fiend Clans, the Great Thousand World was united together and all the differences between them were being suppressed.

The Great Thousand World’s mortal enemy was the Fiend Clans.

On another side of the palace, a few gorgeous silhouettes were standing to the side. All of them possessed an outstanding appearance with different temperaments, but they could attract everyone’s attention.

The four of them were naturally the mistresses of the Endless Fire Territory and Martial Realm.

“What a déjà vu from this scene.” Ling Qingzhu’s eyes flickered with killing intent as she sighed. They had once faced a similar situation back in their hometown.

Standing beside Ling Qingzhu, Ying Huanhuan’s hair was draped down and a cold aura has gathered in her pupils. Her looks had been maintained just like when they fought with the Yimo Emperor in the distant past.

But their opponent was more terrifying than the Yimo Clan.

“Since we’ve managed to repel the Yimo Clan in the past, we will definitely be able to chase the Fiend Clans out of the Great Thousand World.”

Ling Qingzhu nodded her head then gave a smile towards Ying Huanhuan. “But this time, you’re not allowed to sacrifice yourself. Otherwise, how is Lin Dong going to bring you back?”

Ying Huanhuan’s face blushed and the two mistresses of the Endless Fire Territory also smiled, causing her to roll her eyes at Ling Qingzhu’s words.

“Mother, what do we have to do?” A resounding voice was heard as a slender figure appeared behind one of the mistresses of the Endless Fire Territory, Cai Lin.

It was Xiao Xiao!

“Yeah, we have to do something! We can’t be hiding here!” After Xiao Xiao, another clear voice resounded. Lin Jing agreed and stared at her two mothers.

Seeing that their daughters were so bloodthirsty for battle, the four mistresses helplessly exchanged a look. Xiao Xun’er smiled. “Don’t worry about it. I’ve already told your fathers about it. Starting from today, the two of you will form a team with Luo Li and patrol to clear up any Fiend Clans that have invaded.”

Hearing those words, Lin Jing’s eyes blinked with disappointment. “Ah? Stabilise the rear? I have just reached the Heavenly Sovereign Realm, so I can go to the frontline!”

Rolling her eyes, Ling Qingzhu replied, “Stabilising the rear is an important matter. With the majority of the Heavenly Sovereigns engaged in the frontlines, we have to protect the safety of their sects, family, and friends.”

Hearing the words of her mother, Lin Jing could only pout her lips. Even Xiao Xiao had nodded her head.

When the four mistresses saw that they finally calmed the two little devils, they exchanged a look and felt inwardly relieved. Even Heavenly Sovereigns would fall at the frontlines, and the two of them were still too inexperienced. They would be in great danger, so dispatching them to the rear was the best.

Although this concerned the life and death of the Great Thousand World, they would rather face the frontlines by themselves. As mothers, they would rather take the higher risk themselves, while keeping their children safe.

“Right, mom, there’s Mu Chen? I haven’t heard anything about him for the past few years, and it’s so unlike him.” Lin Jing swept her gaze around. Mu Chen’s reputation should qualify him to be here. Not to mention that that fellow’s ability to cause trouble wasn’t weak, so it was too unbelievable for him to disappear.

Hearing Lin Jing’s question, Xiao Xiao also directed her gaze over. She was naturally concerned about the news regarding her friends. It’s just that not many people knew about Mu Chen’s information. On the other hand, rumours cannot be truly believed.

The four mistresses wore a grave expression. They naturally knew about Mu Chen. Hence, they knew what important position he has to play in this war.

“Don’t worry about him. The next time he appears, the entire Great Thousand World will cheer… and we just have to hope that he can succeed.”

…

After sending all the orders out, the Flame Emperor and Martial Ancestor stood up and swept their gazes at everyone.

“The Fiend Clans want to dominate our home…”

“And we will tell them. What welcomes them will be swords, blades, blood, and fire!”
