A Being Greater Than the Heavens

Inside a grand hall near the summit of the Mystic Demon Sect mountain.

At that moment, two middle-aged men were sitting and chatting.

The man was as tall and imposing as an iron tower, with a pair of sharp, piercing eyes beneath his thick eyebrows. A heavy black iron sword hung at his waist, exuding Sha Qi even before it was drawn, clearly indicating a ruthless character who was decisive in killing.

The other man was as thin as bamboo, with a pale face as if he had been ill for a long time. His blue robe was covered with star-shaped runes, and his eyes were sinister yet contained a hint of calculation.

Both of them possessed powerful auras, indicating they were both at the Late Great Emperor Realm.

"Brother Xiong, your sect is so close to the Blood Phoenix Sect, do you still not understand why the Eternal Night Demon Emperor treated them that way?" The thin middle-aged man named Li Qingchen asked the middle-aged man opposite him.

Now, all forces in the entire Demon Domain are focusing their attention on the Blood Phoenix Sect.

Last night, the Eternal Night Demon Emperor suddenly set up a barrier above the Blood Phoenix Sect Blood Phoenix Sect, trapping the entire sect inside. He also gave the Blood Phoenix Sect Blood Phoenix Sect days to provide an explanation, or he would annihilate the entire sect.

The Eternal Night Demon Emperor has only been out of seclusion for a short time. He first refined the Demon God Mother Tree, and then it seems he also dug up the Cold Crystal Forbidden Land. Now, his sudden attack on the Blood Phoenix Sect has aroused a lot of curiosity.

Xiong Zhong, speaking in a loud voice, said, "I don't know either! Everyone in the entire Demon Domain is speculating about what happened. However, the Blood Phoenix Sect must have offended the Eternal Night Demon Emperor somewhere! This senior is a god of death, but he wouldn't kill people indiscriminately without reason."

As he said this, a glint flashed in Xiong Zhong's eyes.

That was the light of worship.

Li Qingchen shook his head. "I have a friend in the Blood Phoenix Sect, but unfortunately, he's probably doomed. He's only at the Early Great Emperor Realm. To be honest, he's pitiful; he did nothing wrong, yet he suffers this calamity. Fate is hard to defy."

"Now that the Eternal Night Demon Emperor has become active again in the Demon Domain, all forces have immediately lowered their guard, fearing that they might do something to offend him. It seems that some of the higher-ups in the Blood Phoenix Sect think their sect is strong enough, so they haven't adopted the proper attitude," Xiong Zhong said.

"I greatly admire the Eternal Night Demon Emperor, but if I had a choice, I would prefer to never come into contact with him in my entire life, otherwise, I might accidentally cause a major problem," Li Qingchen said, shaking his head.

"You don't need to be afraid. Anyone who can come into contact with a powerhouse of this level is at least at the Peak Great Emperor Realm. Your master might be one of them. And your master... I remember he dealt with the Eternal Night Demon Emperor before."

That's absolutely true.

Just as the two were having a pleasant conversation, they were suddenly interrupted by a surge of magical energy.

Li Qingchen narrowed his eyes and said, "This formation has actually been activated? This formation only activates automatically when Peak Great Emperor Realm expert appears."

"Who are you guests?" Xiong Zhong asked.

"I'll go out and see. If I'm not mistaken, they should be looking for my master. However, my master is currently in seclusion and has strictly forbidden me from disturbing him."

Li Qingchen stood up, and just as he was about to leave the main hall and go outside, a voice rang out from the sky.

"Old Mule, I'll give you three breaths to come out, or I'll break this formation."

Upon hearing this voice, Li Qingchen's expression changed slightly.

Old Mule?

Are you talking about his master?

"It seems he's your master's enemy?" Xiong Zhong glanced at Li Qingchen, his expression strange.

This person seems to have some ill intentions.

After all, they said they were going to break the formation.

Li Qingchen frowned, quickly flew out of the main hall, and rose into the air.

He wanted to see who it was!

Their formation was the masterpiece of Huang Hao, the strongest formation master in the Demon Domain. Even his master, with all his strength, found it difficult to break.

In the blink of an eye, the two of them flew into the air and stood opposite Lu Qing'an, separated by a layer of formation.

Li Qingchen glanced at Lu Qing'an carefully and realized that she had never seen this handsome middle-aged man before.

His cultivation aura was extremely well-concealed; he couldn't even discern Lu Qing'an's exact cultivation level.

However, the fact that this formation could rise already proves that Lu Qing'an possesses the cultivation strength of the Peak Great Emperor Realm.

Could he be one of those powerful individuals who spends years in seclusion cultivating?

The Demon Domain is not lacking in special Devil Cultivator who rarely venture out, focusing instead on secluded cultivation in certain unique locations to break through their limitations.

"Senior, are you looking for my master?" Li Qingchen looked at Lu Qing'an through the array and gave a simple greeting with his hands clasped.

Lu Qing'an glanced at Li Qingchen and the other person, and calmly said, "Is Old Mule your master? Then let him come out. If he's not in the sect, send him a message and tell him to come back. Also, Dao of Alchemy Master in your sect?"

The Old Mule recognized his voice. If he were inside the sect, he would have come running out as soon as he heard his voice, so there's a very high chance he's not in the sect.

Dao of Alchemy Master?

Li Qingchen naturally recognized Dao of Alchemy Master, the strongest Alchemist in Demon Domain Realm; however, he did not know whether Dao of Alchemy Master was in the sect.

"Senior, my master is busy with very important matters and may not be able to see you. If you have anything to say, please let me know, and I will pass it on to my master once he is finished. As for whether Dao of Alchemy Master is in the sect, I really don't know," Li Qingchen said.

He had to show some respect when facing a Peak Great Emperor Realm expert.

Even though he had a vague feeling that the newcomer was somewhat hostile.

Strangely, however, he didn't see any anger on the man's face.

He truly couldn't determine whether this person had a grudge against his master.

"Then make him stop everything he's doing."

Upon hearing Lu Qing'an's words, Li Qingchen immediately cupped his hands and said, "Senior, please come another time. I'm afraid I cannot agree to that."

Before his master entered the secret realm behind the mountain, he solemnly instructed him not to go in and disturb the place, no matter what the matter was.

No matter how important the matter is, it's not allowed!

He also asked at the time whether the destruction of a sect was a huge deal.

His master even said that the destruction of the sect didn't count.

Therefore, the answer is quite obvious: we shouldn't disturb them in any way.

If he were to disturb them, the master and disciple might no longer be master and disciple.

The fact that he dared to speak to Lu Qing'an like this at this moment meant that he wasn't afraid of what Lu Qing'an might do, as this formation could block all enemies.

Lu Qing'an asked, "Are you sure you can relay this message to him?"

Li Qingchen smiled and nodded.

"Then tell him that the Eternal Night Demon Emperor came here looking for him," Lu Qing'an said calmly.

Li Qingchen was about to nod in agreement when, in the next moment, his eyes widened in surprise.

Xiong Zhong, who had been standing quietly beside Li Qingchen without saying a word, also trembled slightly.

"You... you are the Eternal Night Demon Emperor?!" Li Qingchen's mind was buzzing violently.

No way!!

We were just talking about how we hoped we'd never run into the Eternal Night Demon Emperor.

We'd barely finished talking when the Eternal Night Demon Emperor arrived?!

And he actually...

This is something countless times larger than the sky!!!

"Senior! I... I knew it! I'd been waiting for you so long! I'll kneel before you!!!"

At this point, Li Qingchen decisively knelt down before Lu Qing'an, even through the array.

That's right!

Just kneel down!

If he simply kneels down, perhaps he can still save the entire sect!

"Stop with this nonsense and waste my time. Quickly get your master back, or open the formation and I'll go in and look for him myself."

He had a fairly good relationship with this Old Mule.

We won't force our way through this formation.

"Alright! Alright! I'll set up the formation for you right away!!!"

Li Qingchen was already covered in sweat and his body was trembling violently.

Good heavens! What's this big shot doing here?!

I am so surprised!!!
