Brothers Finally Meet

"You lunatic! Was that you, kid!"

The Flame Emperor turned his head, glaring at Feng Luoqing with furious eyes.

Facing the enraged Flame Emperor, Feng Luoqing looked utterly innocent.

What did I do?

Haven't I been here the entire time?

However...

It seemed like a force just surged from the void.

There's absolutely no mistaking that!

Moreover, I can feel a sense of being watched from the shadows, though the owner of this gaze doesn't bear any ill will towards us.

Could it be...

In that instant, the Flame Emperor and the Wind Emperor exchanged a glance. Though their expressions remained unchanged, their hearts skipped a beat, and a hint of understanding dawned on them.

"Not you? If not you, then who? Do you think there are invisible turtles running around?"

The Flame Emperor roared, his anger intensifying. He took a step forward and drew his longsword from the ground.

He was a fire-attribute magic warrior himself, and his manipulation of fire elements just now was merely one of his many skills, a rather common one at that.

Now, with the crimson longsword drawn and in his hand, he was at his strongest.

Xiao Wen, hidden in the shadows, watched the Flame Emperor curse and frown.

He knew his presence had been exposed. These two were definitely aware he was nearby, and that outburst was clearly a veiled accusation.

Suddenly, Xiao Wen saw the Flame Emperor point the crimson magic sword in his hand towards the sky. Sparks began to drift down from the heavens.

HP -1.

HP -0.

HP -1.

The sparks covered a vast area, falling from the sky like a fine mist. They landed on Xiao Wen, causing negligible damage.

However, was the Flame Emperor truly concerned about such minor damage?

No!

He was concerned about Xiao Wen's hiding spot!

Within the range of the fire rain, he didn't need to see Xiao Wen's location. He only needed to sense where the fire rain wasn't falling to pinpoint Xiao Wen's whereabouts.

This was the skill of the Four Emperors!

No, or rather, it was a basic operation that any King-tier player possessed.

"Found you!"

The Flame Emperor narrowed his eyes, a sharp glint flashing within them. He gripped the sword hilt with both hands and charged forward, his sword suddenly slashing down from the air. A ball of flame coiled around the crimson magic sword, transforming into a colossal fire python that swooped down.

The direction of the fire python's charge was precisely where Xiao Wen was hiding.

"Damn it, this old guy is still so sneaky even at his age!"

Xiao Wen cursed with a laugh. The Nightmare's mental protection above his head gradually dissipated, and a figure slowly emerged on the empty ground.

Xiao Wen raised his hand and threw a punch, not retreating, and struck the fire python.

However, his fist passed through the fire python's head!

He clearly felt that just before his fist landed, the flames at the fire python's head dispersed, or rather, the entire body of the fire python shifted, turning into streams of fire that bypassed Xiao Wen's body and surrounded him, forming a fiery cage.

"You brat, I finally found you! Did you really think I cared about dealing that little bit of damage? I'm going to capture you and deal with you slowly!"

"Halfway Through the Mortal World? The first to kill a Level 7 BOSS? The first to kill a Level 15 BOSS? Bah!"

The Flame Emperor cursed casually, completely disregarding the dignity he usually projected in front of Lu Qingsha and the others, acting more like a common street person.

If Lu Qingsha were to witness this scene, she would surely be stunned and speechless for a long time.

Did she not know her own elder brother's personality?

Although he appeared stern on the outside, he was actually warm-hearted. In the past, her elder brother often wore a smile, but ever since becoming one of the Four Emperors, he had been adorned with countless glorious titles, and simultaneously bore immense pressure from all sides.

All this pressure fell upon him. At some point, the smile vanished from the Flame Emperor's face, replaced by coldness and ruthlessness.

Xiao Wen spread his hands, looking at the surrounding flame cage, his expression a mixture of surprise.

This former Flame Magician had truly mastered his flame magic to an incredible degree!

Even he had fallen into a trap due to a moment's carelessness.

"Alright, are you going to let me move now? You've shown off enough. Let me send him back to the village for free next."

Feng Luoqing turned his head, looking at Xiao Wen within the flame cage, a sharp glint flashing in his eyes.

Xiao Wen's mouth twitched, and he loudly accused the two of shamelessness.

To think that two of the Four Emperors would gang up on me!

What the hell is this supposed to be?

Do they really think I'm made of mud, that I'm that easy to deal with?

"Get lost, you lunatic, this is my prey!" the Flame Emperor said irritably.

Whether this person was that person or not, he'd have to try and find out.

Hearing this, the Wind Emperor immediately took offense. The usually "taciturn" Wind Emperor was arguing with the "imposingly dignified" Flame Emperor?

Xiao Wen looked at the two of them, his old face darkening. They were treating him like meat on a platter!

Damn it!

He lowered his head and looked at the Duel Disk in his hand. The cooldown was over, and he could summon another monster.

"Since that's the case, I'll let you two properly witness the terror of a violent duelist!"

Draw!

His two fingers landed on the card, and as he drew, the content of one card appeared in Xiao Wen's eyes, a smile immediately forming on his face.

"Stop arguing, you two. Come at me together. A level ten magic warrior and a level ten swordsman, I don't know who gave you the courage to come trouble an eleventh-level Summoner like me. Come at me together, and I'll deal with you all at once, saving myself the trouble."

Xiao Wen held a card in one hand, while his other index finger beckoned the two of them forward.

"Together?" the Wind Emperor blinked and asked.

"Is he worthy?" the Flame Emperor's expression turned cold again, returning to his usual icy demeanor. "Besides that person, who in Kyushu is worthy of both of us making a move?"

"Fine, he's mine then."

The Wind Emperor's eyes flashed with sharp light. With that declaration, without waiting for the Flame Emperor's reply, he immediately gripped his sword and charged forward. His speed was incredible, leaving afterimages in the air. In the blink of an eye, he was before the essence flame prison. He raised his long sword high, and a dark brown airflow coiled around the blade. With a whoosh, he slashed down, as if possessing the power to cleave metal and shatter stone.

"I say, I'm a Summoner, after all. You guys are only targeting me, how much do you look down on my summoned beasts?"

Xiao Wen said with a calm expression, shrugging his shoulders. He placed the card between his fingers onto the Duel Disk.

Summon!
