Bauhinia Sovereign

"Richard, kid, wanna join me? I'll give you plenty of Sovereign’s Might, and you can collect as many Amethyst as you like," Reisjing tempted.

Richard was stunned. "I came to seek refuge with the Bauhinia Sovereign, not with you."

His strength is no less than Reisjing's, so why would he be willing to join this guy?

Reisjing couldn't produce the Sovereign Artifact he wanted.

As for the Sovereign’s Might, although he coveted it, it would be too much of a loss for him to sell himself just for the Sovereign’s Might.

Just as Richard was racking his brains trying to figure out how to refuse this guy without offending him, a dignified female voice suddenly rang out.

"Alright, Jingjing, bring him over. This little guy isn't someone you can tame."

Reisjing suddenly snapped, "How many times have I told you, don't call me Jingjing!"

Doesn't he have any pride? A dignified Asura- level powerhouse, if people go out and hear that his nickname is Jingjing, what will become of his dignity as the Amethyst King?

"Was that the Chief God just now?" Richard exclaimed in horror.

"Kid, are you scared now? Have you ever heard of the names of the Chief God of Hell?" Reisjing said smugly.

"I do know a little about that; it was briefly mentioned in the materials I bought at the Bauhinia Castle."

The Sovereign Destruction is the supreme Sovereign of Hell; the Bauhinia Continent belongs to the Bauhinia Sovereign.

"This is the Bauhinia Mountain Range. Could that voice just now have been the Bauhinia Sovereign?" Richard suddenly realized.

"Looks like you're not stupid after all. That's right, that's the Bauhinia Sovereign," Reisjing said.

"So what is your relationship with the Bauhinia Sovereign?" Richard asked cautiously.

"The Bauhinia Sovereign is my mother," Reisjing said, glancing at him.

"Let's go, stop dawdling, I'll take you to see the Chief God," Reisjing said, sounding slightly impatient.

I was originally planning to recruit this guy myself, but he's really ungrateful; he actually looks down on me?

Well, now that his mother has taken a liking to him, he can forget about it.

The more he thought about it, the angrier he became, and he glared at Richard.

That ungrateful bastard! If he weren't so slippery and impossible to catch, he would have given him a good beating.

Richard had no time to know what Reisjing was thinking.

He perked up; this was the Chief God.

Theoretically, this is the pinnacle of power in the Coiling Dragon World, and it cannot even be achieved through normal cultivation.

One can only become Chief God by refining Sovereign Spark. Each of the Four Rules and Seven Laws has only seven Sovereign Spark.

Therefore, there can only be a maximum of seventy-seven Chief God.

In reality, the number of Chief God has never reached seventy-seven, because some Chief God have perished and lost their Sovereign Spark, while a few very lucky Chief God have obtained a second Sovereign Spark and become rare dual-system Chief God.

For example, the Fate Sovereign Orloff and the Light Sovereign Augusta are actually the same person.

For example, after the Four Divine Beasts were killed by Augusta, their corpses were seized by Beirut. Beirut only refined one of the Sovereign Spark Sovereign Spark, while the other three remained in his collection.

Therefore, the Chief God is never actually at full capacity.

This was also Richard's first time meeting a powerhouse of the level of Chief God, and he had no concrete impression of their strength.

He could only brace himself and prepare to flee, ready to escape to the world of other group members should things turn sour.

He wasn't going to let his Divine Clone avatar sacrifice itself in vain; that would be a huge loss. He had to run if he could.

At that point, it won't just be the Hell Divine Clone running away; all the other Divine Clone will have to run away too. Without the strength to confront the Chief God, they won't be coming back.

However, this is only the most extreme case. The Bauhinia Sovereign should be relatively easy to get along with, right?

As long as you remain respectful, you should have little problem staying alive.

By now, Richard had a general idea of his timeline. After all, he was in Hell, so getting information was quite easy.

For example, he knew that the ancestor of the Four Divine Beasts Clan was gone.

The Four Divine Beasts Clan is currently under siege by the Eight Great Clans and has completely withdrawn its forces, retreating to the Indigo Prefecture Skyrite Mountains in the Azure Palace of the Bloodridge Continent. This is the Four Divine Beasts Clan's home base, meaning that they have lost all their other territories except for their home base.

If it weren't for the protection of Beirut, the Prefecture Lord of Indigo Prefecture Mansion, the Eight Great Clans would have wiped them out long ago, regardless of the cost.

There was no way around it; these guys were far too arrogant before, relying on the backing of four Chief God ancestors to call themselves the number one family in many Divine Plane.

They were as arrogant as could be, and as a result, once the Four Divine Beasts died, the entire Four Divine Beasts Clan was met with a fierce counterattack from the clans they had previously oppressed, resulting in heavy casualties.

The Eight Great Clans currently relentlessly pursuing and killing the Four Divine Beasts Clan are mostly not native to Hell, but rather moved here from other Divine Plane. They've abandoned their Four Divine Beasts Clan, which shows just how deep their hatred is.

Among the information he gathered, there was no one named Linley among the experts of the Four Divine Beasts Clan, so the current timeline is after the Four Divine Beasts weakened and before Linley rose to power.

As for the specifics, whether Linley was born or came to Hell, we don't know.

However, it would be worthwhile to test whether Reisjing, who is nearby, has encountered Linley. It was here that Linley developed the technique of mimicking the Amethyst Divine Beast's innate ability— the Amethyst Space —which gave him the strength to fight against the Seven-Star Fiend and allowed him to rise to prominence.

Before this, Linley had struggled to even deal with a Five-Star Demon- level High-level God.

"Reisjing, what do you think of the Four Divine Beasts Clan?" he asked.

"The Four Divine Beasts Clan? What? Did they offend you?" Reisjing frowned.

He knew that his mother owed a favor to the patriarch of the Four Divine Beasts Clan.

"No, I'm just curious how the once most powerful family in Hell has fallen on such a miserable state," Richard said, shaking his head.

"That's true. You've only been in Hell for less than a hundred years. What could they have done to offend you?" Reisjing relaxed his brows.

"There's not much to say about the Four Divine Beasts Clan. They can only blame themselves for being too arrogant. Now that all their ancestors have perished, they've naturally suffered retribution."

"Speaking of which, our family still owes the Four Divine Beasts Clan a favor, and we'll have to find a chance to repay it later," he continued.

Richard nodded to himself; it seemed Linley hadn't been here yet.

"I see. Looks like you can't be too arrogant when you're out in the world, or you'll end up like the Four Divine Beasts Clan," Richard chimed in.

"That's not entirely true. If you're strong enough, you can be arrogant all you want, and others will have to put up with it. But if you're not strong enough and still dare to be arrogant, then trouble will ensue," Reisjing said disapprovingly.

Very good, this speech has a Hell feel to it, perfectly illustrating the law of the jungle.

Soon, Richard saw a woman in a long robe woven from Amethyst silk, exuding elegance and nobility.

This should be the human form of the Bauhinia Sovereign.

She was tall and slender, with skin that was a cool, pale purple, like solidified Amethyst;

Her long hair cascaded down to her waist like a purple waterfall, the ends shimmering with tiny crystals; her eyebrows and eyes were gentle, and her pupils were deep purple.

His aura was so overwhelming that even a calm gaze from him made Richard feel an increase in pressure.

"Greetings, Chief God." Richard bowed.

"No need for formalities. What was that ability you just used? Spatial teleportation?" the Bauhinia Sovereign asked curiously.

Her voice was clear and gentle, yet carried an undeniable Chief God majesty.

Plane Teleportation Array are something that all the Chief God have studied, since their principles are completely outside the Four Rules and Seven Laws, so everyone is naturally curious.

But no one has been able to figure out anything useful.

It can only be said that the Overgod are still too mysterious, and the abilities they use are indeed beyond the comprehension of these Chief God.

But now a mere Mid-level God has used an ability similar to dimensional teleportation. Although Richard only teleported a short distance, the principle is similar.

If he's powerful enough, wouldn't he be able to travel freely throughout Hell? And if he were even stronger, could he even teleport across dimensions?

"Yes, I have had a keen sense of space since I was a child. Even when I was trying to comprehend the Law Profound Mysteries, I first comprehended the Wind Space and the Dimensional Blade."

The more you understand, the deeper you become, and before you know it, you can achieve this level.

"I only realized how rare this ability was after I came to Hell." Richard lied without even blinking.

"I see. Can you teleport people with you?" The Bauhinia Sovereign didn't say whether she believed him or not, but instead asked.

"Yes," Richard replied.

"Alright, take me with you." The Bauhinia Sovereign said.

"Yes, Your Majesty." Richard approached the Bauhinia Sovereign.

With a thought, he used spatial teleportation, and immediately felt the immense resistance from the Bauhinia Sovereign.

"Your Majesty, relax, do not resist in the slightest. Otherwise, Your Majesty's strength is too great, and I will not be able to teleport you," Richard said.

"Alright, continue." The Bauhinia Sovereign said succinctly.

Richard continued teleporting, and this time the Bauhinia Sovereign did not resist at all. Richard teleported the Bauhinia Sovereign to the place outside where he had just fought with Reisjing.

The Bauhinia Sovereign carefully contemplated the feeling of being teleported just now, and realized that it was indeed similar to Plane Teleportation Array.

Richard then teleported her several more times before finally Richard her back to her secluded place.

"How far can you teleport?" she asked.

"If I were alone, I could teleport tens of thousands of miles away. If I had someone like Reisjing with me, I could teleport several thousand miles away. But if I had you, the Chief God, I could only teleport a few hundred kilometers at most at a time," Richard honestly confessed.

The Bauhinia Sovereign remained silent for a moment before speaking, "Would you like to be my messenger?"

"Mother?" Reisjing exclaimed in shock.

Richard's strength is insufficient; he's not even a Hell Asura- level messenger. It would be a disgrace to the Bauhinia Sovereign if word got out.

"Jingjing, his abilities are special. As for his strength? He'll be ready once he becomes High-level God."

"He has already achieved his current strength in less than ten thousand years. If you give him another ten thousand years, how far will he grow?" the Bauhinia Sovereign explained.
