The Great Ruler - Chapter 1448

Chapter 1448

When the God Grade Heavenly Sovereign by the surname of Lyu asked in a cautious tone, the people in the area became silent . Qin Beixuan and the other two Heavenly Sovereigns were shocked as they looked at him .

“Brother Lyu, you!” Qin Beixuan turned pale . He did not know why his friend had suddenly behaved so politely toward Mu Chen, and his friend appeared to be a little fearful of him . The other two Heavenly Sovereigns were baffled as well . The leaders of the forces from the Hundred Spirit Continent looked at one another with puzzled expressions .

Mu Chen was also taken aback . He looked at Heavenly Sovereign Lyu and nodded, saying, “If you are asking if I am the Mu Estate Master of Tianluo Continent, then you are right . I am he . ”

When Heavenly Sovereign Lyu heard Mu Chen’s reply, he heaved a sigh of relief . He looked even more fearful and immediately cupped his fist and said, “So you are indeed the Mu Estate Master . My apologies for having offended you . ”

“Brother Lyu!” Qin Beixuan called out to him again in a deep voice .

Heavenly Sovereign Lyu sighed and looked at Qin Beixuan, saying, “Brother Qin, since we have known each other for so many years, I advise you to forget about the matter . ”

Qin Beixuan knitted his brows, and the other two Heavenly Sovereigns sensed that something was amiss . They looked at Mu Chen and asked, “Brother Lyu, who is he?”

Even a fool would have noticed that Heavenly Sovereign Lyu was wary of Mu Chen and was even afraid of him . Since a God Grade Heavenly Sovereign had behaved in such a manner, the other two Spiritual Grade Heavenly Sovereigns became wary as well!

Heavenly Sovereign Lyu smiled bitterly and said, “Apparently, you have not heard about it since the Budur Continent is far away from us . Recently, the Mu Estate Master, who is standing before you, barged into the Budur Ancient Clan and defeated most of the Budur Ancient Clan elders based on his strength alone . In the end, the First Elder had to step in in order to stop him . ”

When Qin Beixuan heard it, his face turned pale . He was well aware of the status that the Budur Ancient Clan held in the Great Thousand World . They were one of the five big ancient clans, and they had a strong base .

Although his Beixuan Clan was recognized as a top force, compared to the Budur Ancient Clan, there was still a great disparity between them . The First Elder of the Budur Ancient Clan was a Divine Heavenly Sovereign, and he was considered one of the most powerful people in the Great Thousand World . Mu Chen had been able to force Budur Xuan to strike, and this showed that he must be powerful .

The other two Heavenly Sovereigns asked in disbelief, “How can this be? He is just a Spiritual Grade Heavenly Sovereign!” There were more than ten God Grade Heavenly Sovereigns in the Budur Ancient Clan, and their strength should have been enough to flatten Mu Chen .

“He took control of the Budur Ancient Clan’s Fortify Clan Grand Array and used it to suppress all the elders . Even the Xuan lineage and Mo lineage heads were no match for him,” Heavenly Sovereign Lyu said .

The two Heavenly Sovereigns dropped their jaws when they heard it . Is Mu Chen crazy? He must have offended the Budur Ancient Clan by doing so .

Qin Beixuan looked grave, but at the same time, he heaved a sigh of relief . Mu Chen had tapped into the power of the Budur Ancient Clan’s Fortify Clan Grand Array, so his victory was not based on his own power alone .

“Since he is able to do so, it shows that he is powerful . However, Brother Lyu, why are you afraid of him? Since he has offended the Budur Ancient Clan, they will not let him off!” Qin Beixuan said .

Mu Chen’s combat result was indeed astonishing . However, it did not make any sense for a God Grade Heavenly Sovereign to be so fearful of him .

Heavenly Sovereign Lyu shook his head and said, “Although he is only a Spiritual Grade Heavenly Sovereign, even the elders of the Budur Ancient Clan who are at the initial stage of God Grade Heavenly Sovereign have been defeated by him . He defeated the elders based on his own strength, not with the help of the Fortify Clan Grand Array . Moreover… do you not find it strange that after he created havoc in the Budur Ancient Clan, he came out unscathed?”

When Qin Beixuan and the other two Heavenly Sovereigns heard it, they trembled . The Budur Ancient Clan was extremely rigid and particular about its reputation . What Mu Chen had done had tarnished the clan’s reputation, and by all rights, the Budur Ancient Clan would not have let the matter rest . However, Mu Chen was still alive and moving around freely… What did this imply? The Budur Ancient Clan must have reacted, but they were unable to deal with Mu Chen, as he was too powerful!

“Mu Chen is on good terms with the Flame Emperor of the Endless Fire Territory and the Martial Ancestor of the Martial Border . When he created havoc at the Budur Ancient Clan, the Flame Emperor and Martial Ancestor protected him,” Heavenly Sovereign Lyu said .

Qin Beixuan and the two Heavenly Sovereigns’ expressions changed again . The Flame Emperor and Martial Ancestor were well-known in the Great Thousand World, and they were considered the most powerful people among the Divine Heavenly Sovereigns . However, Mu Chen was close with them, and they had even offended the Budur Ancient Clan for his sake .

“Since he has the support of these two supreme powers, no wonder the Budur Ancient Clan is afraid of him,” the two Heavenly Sovereigns exclaimed .

Heavenly Sovereign Lyu smiled and said, “That is not all . Do you know why Mu Chen created havoc at the Budur Ancient Clan? He was there to save his mother . Back then, his mother and father tied the knot on the Hundred Spirit Continent without the Budur Ancient Clan’s consent . The Budur Ancient Clan was furious and locked his mother up . Mu Chen went there to get her out .

“His mother was amazing… the moment she appeared, she took over the position of First Elder . She is a Divine Ancestral Master and is now the First Elder of the Budur Ancient Clan . ”

Qin Beixuan and the two Heavenly Sovereigns’ jaws dropped . They were stunned to find out that Mu Chen’s mother was the newly appointed First Elder of the Budur Ancient Clan! No wonder the Budur Ancient Clan did not pursue retribution after the havoc that Mu Chen had created . His mother was holding the highest power in the Budur Ancient Clan!

The two Heavenly Sovereigns looked at each other and kept mum . Light glittered in their eyes, and they had the intention of withdrawing from the confrontation . It was clear to them what it would entail if they dared to lay their hands on Mu Chen . He not only had the support of the Endless Fire Territory and the Martial Border, he had the additional backing of the Budur Ancient Clan…

These were the supreme powers in the Great Thousand World . One small action from these supreme powers could make the world tremble . Although Qin Beixuan’s two friends were Heavenly Sovereigns and enjoyed the people’s respect due to their status, they were well aware of the disparity between them and the supreme powers and the Divine Heavenly Sovereign level…

With Mu Chen’s background, there were not many supreme powers in the Great Thousand World that could cause him to be wary .

Qin Beixuan turned pale . He had thought that Mu Chen was just an ordinary Spiritual Grade Heavenly Sovereign, but he turned out to have such an astounding background . Even Qin Beixuan was afraid of Mu Chen now . He was caught in a dilemma .

As Qin Beixuan was thinking of his next move, he suddenly saw that Heavenly Sovereign Lyu had turned pale . He quickly asked, “What is it now?”

Light glittered in Heavenly Sovereign Lyu’s eyes, and he looked across the main hall . He saw an elegant lady sitting beside Mu Feng, and he suddenly became fearful . He asked, “Did you see the lady over there? She looks like Mu Chen’s mother!”

Qin Beixuan looked horrified . The other two Heavenly Sovereigns were shocked and became fearful as they looked warily at the lady . Previously, they had not bothered to look at the people in the main hall . As they started to observe everyone, they indistinctly felt an oppression emanating from the lady who was sitting quietly in a corner, observing what was going on .

“Yes! Yes! That is Mu Chen’s mother . She is Qing Yanjing, the First Elder of the Budur Ancient Clan!” Heavenly Sovereign Lyu recognized Qing Yanjing, and he smiled awkwardly .

The other two Heavenly Sovereigns trembled . They had intended to join forces to deal with the son of a Divine Ancestral Master under her nose! They could not imagine what would have happened to them if they had struck earlier! They immediately looked at Qin Beixuan and said, “Brother Qin, you nearly got us into trouble!”

They were filled with resentment towards Qin Beixuan . It was fine for him to ask for their help, but he did not even bother to find out about Mu Chen’s background before doing so . He was simply digging a pit for them to jump into .

Qin Beixuan had different expressions on his face . He then smiled bitterly and said, “It is my fault . I never expected my son to create such a big mess . We will go and meet this Elder and see if we can resolve the matter . ” Qin Beixuan intended to find out for himself if the lady was truly the First Elder of the Budur Ancient Clan .

His three friends nodded upon hearing what he had said .

The leaders of the forces saw the four Heavenly Sovereigns, who had looked imposing earlier, come down from the heavens and land in the run-down hall .

Lord Hundred Spirit looked elated and called out when he saw Qin Beixuan, “Father! Father!”

However, Qin Beixuan ignored him and came to the seats of the Northern Spiritual Alliance . Everyone looked shocked when the four Heavenly Sovereigns cupped their fists and bowed to Qing Yanjing, who was sitting beside Mu Feng .

“May we know if you are the First Elder of the Budur Ancient Clan?” Qin Beixuan sounded nervous as his voice resounded in the main hall . Lord Hundred Spirit’s face froze, as he was stunned when he saw what his father had done .

The higher echelons in the Northern Spiritual Alliance who were chatting with Qing Yanjing earlier were shocked . They then swallowed hard and looked at Qing Yanjing . Apparently, they did not know why the four prominent Heavenly Sovereigns had suddenly shown such great respect to her .

Qing Yanjing was shocked as well when she saw that the four Heavenly Sovereigns had treated her with reverence . She then smiled and nodded, saying, “I am Qing Yanjing . ”

When Qin Beixuan heard it, he felt a cold shiver run up his spine . They were so foolish . They had been behaving like a bunch of clowns before a Divine Ancestral Master…
