Following the Emperor, the second Sovereign's true form descended.
A muscular brute with blood-red hair and beard, gleaming bronze skin, and iron chains hanging from his waist leaped out of the orange-red sphere of light.

The "Heart Demon" Mu Sheng Jun had only two kinds of enemies he hated most.
First, opponents whose souls—or other forms of energy capable of interfering with the inner world—were incredibly powerful.
