TOP7: Evil-Eyed Tyrant Ruler (1 / 2)

The Sky Ranking List trembled slightly, and a strand of golden light descended into the Far North.

The Ice Empress raced like a madwoman toward the place where the golden light had fallen.

When she arrived, she saw the breathtakingly beautiful Snow Empress lying quietly in the snow, completely naked.

Tears spilled from the Ice Empress's eyes:

"Snow Empress..."

Suddenly, the Snow Empress's eyelids fluttered as she lay in the snow. Her whole body trembled, her brows knitted tightly, and unease and fear crossed her face.

It was as though she were having a nightmare.

Her snow-white feet kicked restlessly against the snow, as if she were trying to retreat from something dangerous, and she cried out in fear:

"No... don't come any closer..."

Her heart aching, the Ice Empress hurried over and called to her.

Awakened by the voice, the Snow Empress snapped her eyes open and sat up, her entire body taut. Her eyes widened in terror, and beads of sweat—a rare sight for her—formed on her forehead before instantly freezing.

"Snow Empress, it's all right now. Don't be afraid..."

The Ice Empress soothed her softly.

The Snow Empress gradually calmed down, and most of the terror faded from her eyes.

She looked around blankly, then at the Ice Empress before her:

"Wasn't I dead?"

"You're alive again."

The Ice Empress pointed excitedly at the Sky Ranking List. "That strange thing brought you back..."

After the Ice Empress explained, the Snow Empress roughly understood what the Golden Scroll in the sky was.

Suddenly, fear appeared on her face:

"Then... what about that human? Is he still in the Far North?"

"He left. Once he absorbed your Spirit Ring and took your Soul Bone, he left," the Ice Empress said bitterly.

The Snow Empress breathed a sigh of relief and looked at the Ice Empress:

"Did he hurt you?"

"No." The Ice Empress gritted her teeth in hatred:

"He said I was too weak and that my Soul Ring wasn't worth his attention."

New text appeared on the Sky Ranking List.

Countless beings across the Douluo Continent suddenly perked up.

"Seventh place is here!"

"Who will it be?"

"Don't tell me it's another soul beast?"

Under countless watching eyes, the new ranking emerged.

[TOP7: Evil-Eyed Tyrant Ruler]

[Introduction: Evil-Eyed Tyrant Ruler, a seven-hundred-and-eighty-thousand-year soul beast. The ruler is the chief of the Evil-Eyed Tyrant Clan and the true overlord of the Evil Demon Forest on the Sun Moon Continent.]

[Combat power: 148]

At the sight, every being froze.

S-seven hundred and eighty thousand years?!!

They had thought six hundred and ninety thousand years was already unrivaled beneath the heavens, yet someone even fiercer than her existed.

Evil-Eyed Tyrant Ruler—what an imperious name.

But what the hell was the Sun Moon Continent? And what the hell was the Evil Demon Forest?

Why had they never even heard of them?

Countless beings across the Douluo Continent were utterly lost.

Even Bibi Dong, Qian Daoliu, and the others were deeply puzzled.

They had never heard of the Sun Moon Continent or the Evil Demon Forest either.

The Sun Moon Continent.

Countless beings on the Sun Moon Continent saw that someone from their own continent had finally made the list.

Countless humans on the Sun Moon Continent wept with joy...

Wept with joy, their asses!

They would have been better off not making the damn list.

The Evil-Eyed Tyrant Ruler was bad, bad news. If the ruler received a reward for making the list and became even stronger, wouldn't the beings of the Sun Moon Continent be plunged into even deeper waters and hotter flames?

The beings of the Sun Moon Continent wanted to cry but had no tears.

Qian Daoliu gazed at the Sky Ranking List and murmured to himself:

"The Sun Moon Continent? Is it a landmass like the Douluo Continent?"

Under countless watching eyes.

The text on the Sky Ranking List lingered for a minute, then vanished.

An image appeared.

Countless beings across the Douluo Continent stared intently at the Sky Ranking List.

Yet a single glance sent countless people trembling violently, their faces deathly pale.

What on earth was that thing?

The ruler resembled an enormous eyeball, but countless tentacles grew around the eye, blotting out the sky and sun. The sight was extraordinarily sinister.

Everyone stared at that enormous, evil eye with pallid faces.

"What a terrifying soul beast. And so ugly..."

Qian Daoliu, Bibi Dong, and the others felt their pupils contract at the sight of the Evil-Eyed Tyrant Ruler.

Xiao Wu at Blue Tyrant Academy was especially frightened. Her face turned deathly pale as she huddled in Tang San's arms, trembling like a startled little rabbit.

As a hundred-thousand-year soul beast herself, she could not understand why such a terrifying soul beast existed in this world.

She did not even have the courage to face the ruler.

I would die.

She understood with absolute clarity that if she fought the ruler, she would undoubtedly die a horrible death.

Heaven Dou City, beside the river.

"What an evil soul beast."

An unprecedented solemnity appeared on Qian Renxue's peerlessly beautiful face.

Long Yichen looked thoughtfully at the Evil-Eyed Tyrant Ruler in the image overhead:

"This fellow looks pretty intimidating, but is nothing more than a paper tiger. One blast of my Heat Vision, and the ruler was dead, without the slightest chance to fight back."

It had also been a year ago. To obtain the nine strongest Spirit Rings, he had slaughtered all the highest-ranked soul beasts according to the original work's later accounts.

Including the Silver Dragon King.

The Douluo Continent to which the progress bar was bound actually referred to Douluo Star.

Thus, he could freely leave the Douluo Continent and travel to the Sun Moon Continent.

In the image, the Evil-Eyed Tyrant Ruler battled more than a dozen Titled Douluos who had come to subjugate the ruler.

These Titled Douluos did not seem particularly strong, but they carried many powerful Soul Tools that the beings of the Douluo Continent had never seen.

With the enhancement of these Soul Tools, the dozen-plus Titled Douluos worked together and actually managed to hold their own against the Evil-Eyed Tyrant Ruler, though only barely.

The fierce battle left countless beings across the Douluo Continent and the Sun Moon Continent trembling with fear.

"W-what are those?"

"They look like weapons made of metal, but they're so powerful! They can even launch things that explode from a distance. How terrifying! Even ordinary Titled Douluos couldn't withstand that kind of power."

Countless beings across the Douluo Continent were stunned, their mouths hanging open.

But what shocked them even more was that, despite being surrounded by more than a dozen Titled Douluos armed with powerful, unknown weapons, the Evil-Eyed Tyrant Ruler killed every last one of them.

Meanwhile, the Evil-Eyed Tyrant Ruler suffered only minor injuries.

"You fools had no idea what you were up against."

The Evil-Eyed Tyrant Ruler looked coldly down at the dozen-plus corpses below, its voice coming from somewhere unknown.

The image ended.

Countless beings across the Douluo Continent stared in stupefaction.

Was this the terror of a seven-hundred-and-eighty-thousand-year soul beast?

It was far too frightening.

Bibi Dong's expression was grave:

"This Evil-Eyed Tyrant Ruler truly is extraordinary. Even I would have to pay a devastating price to bring it down."

Her face darkened as she clenched her fists:

"Damn it! Why is this happening? Haven't I already reached the Peak of Mortal Beings? How am I still not invincible?!"

A minute after the image ended, new text slowly emerged.

The eyes of countless beings across the Douluo Continent suddenly lit up.

"It's here! The reward is here!!"

"I'm curious what the reward will be."

Under countless watching eyes, two new lines of text fully appeared.

[Reward: Death and Resurrection]

[Reward recipient: Evil-Eyed Tyrant Ruler]

"????"

Every being across the Douluo Continent was dumbfounded.

Wait, the Evil-Eyed Tyrant Ruler, who had been so damn powerful in the image, was actually dead?

Did that make any sense?

Even when surrounded by more than a dozen Titled Douluos wielding numerous powerful weapons, the Evil-Eyed Tyrant Ruler had suffered only minor injuries.

Who in the world could kill the ruler?

Yet the ruler was dead.

Not only the beings of the Douluo Continent, but those of the Sun Moon Continent were utterly dumbfounded as well.

Wait, when had the Evil-Eyed Tyrant Ruler died? How had they not known?
