Chapter 2022: Human Head

Several hundreds of Lightning Eagles opened their mouths to shoot out rays and rays of sharp energy. They charged at great speed, immediately arriving before Qingfeng and the others.

Qingfeng saw the Lightning Eagles that charged towards him without any expression. He wouldn’t have been afraid even if the elder in grey attacked, not to mention some demonic beasts.

His right hand lightly waved forward, immediately forming a massive vital essence palm. The hand engulfed all of the sky, and with a loud sound, the several hundred Lightning Eagles were all smashed into a bloody mess, not leaving a whole corpse behind for any of them

The elder in grey’s face changed, as shock filled his eyes. At that moment he felt that he had received the wrong information.

He had asked someone for Qingfeng’s information and had been informed that Qingfeng was only at the seventh level of the spirit monarch realm. It was only because of that that the elder in grey dared to utilize the forces of numerous demonic beasts to hunt down Qingfeng, but who knew his opponent’s power was clearly much more powerful than what the informant had told him.

Qingfeng didn’t mind the elder in grey. Instead, he continued to wave his hand, and with two waves, he slapped all of the other demonic beasts to death. None were left alive, with only the elder in grey left there, with various changes in his face.

Qingfeng looked at the elder in grey and said lightly, “The Crimson Fire Monarch’s reward must be very alluring, but sadly you have a distorted idea of your own power and have given up your life like so. Seems like I’ve given you too much mercy. Today I’ll twist off your head, and hang it in the back of the flying boat, so that all the self-cultivators of the Crimson Fire Continent could see what would happen to someone who opposes me.”

The elder in grey’s face changed dramatically when he felt the cold murderous intent Qingfeng released. Then, he felt the threat of death, without any way of fighting back.

The elder in grey suddenly turned around to unleash a technique that will increase his speed so that he could escape. He knew that there was only one option if he remained there, and that was death.

Qingfeng heavily grabbed forward with his hand at the speed of lightning. He immediately caught onto the elder in grey trying to escape and lifted his body up into the sky.

The elder in grey’s face changed after he was caught, as he said with terror, “Ninth level of the spirit Monarch Realm! You’ve reached the ninth level of the Spirit Monarch Realm?”

Qingfeng nodded and said, “So you’re not completely unaware, do you now know how pathetically you will died?”

The elder in grey begged, “Don’t kill me, I’ll be your servant.”

Qingfeng shook his head and said, “I don’t need a servant like you. I want your head to scare off all the other self-cultivators.”

Qingfeng heavily twisted with his right hand, and with a ‘snap’ sound, he twisted off the elder in grey’s head. With a rope, he tied up the elder in grey’s head, hung it at the back of the flying boat, and then steered the boat towards Fire Monarch Mountain.

When Qingfeng killed the elder in grey and hung his head up at the back of the flying boat, his path afterwards grew more peaceful.

Many self-cultivators appeared due to the Crimson Fire Monarch’s promised rewards and wanted to attack Qingfeng, but when they saw the elder in grey’s head at the back of the flying boat, their faces turned pale in horror. Some even peed their pants in fear, as their bodies trembled, and stepped back hurriedly, no longer daring to attack Qingfeng.

In the Crimson Fire Continent, many self-cultivators knew of this elder in grey, as he was the Beast Emperor Sect Master, and a powerful eighth level spirit Monarch Realm force.

However Qingfeng had now killed a powerful famous master, and as they knew that their powers weren’t even at the eighth level of the Spirit Monarch Realm yet, they naturally dared not to challenge fate.

At this moment, everyone knew that it was extremely difficult to kill Qingfeng, unless one had incredible strength.

The entire Continent fell into a great silence. A while before, it was filled with rowdiness, excitement, and crowds as everyone wished for two more pairs of legs to find Qingfeng faster so that they could get the Crimson Fire Monarch’s reward.

However they all wanted to escape from Qingfeng as fast as possible, because only a limited set of forces could combat Qingfeng in the entire Crimson Fire Continent.

Inside the Lingyun Imperial Palace, the Lingyun Emperor’s face lit up with joy when he heard the news from his servant. The Lingyun Emperor said quietly, “I knew that Qingfeng is the strongest, no one can stop him. I hope he could reach the Fire Emperor Mountain successfully and rescue Ruyan Liu.”

Two people stood beneath the Imperial Palace, one was Qingqing Mu, and another was Li Yang. Qingfeng asked the Lingyun Emperor to protect these two, since they were the two women Qingfeng had met once he entered the Crimson Fire Continent, and they had a complex relation with him.

Lingyun Emperor lightly smiled, as he looked at Qingqing Mu and Li Yang beneath him and said, “You should stay inside the Imperial Palace for now. Don’t go out, I’m afraid there might be other self-cultivators who will try to kidnap you to threaten Qingfeng.”

Both Qingqing Mu and Li Yang nodded in acknowledgement.

Especially Qingqing Mu, she was still in a confused state. She was once the second lady of a Greater Luo City family in a third-tier city in Lingyun Country.

However after she met Qingfeng, Qingqing Mu’s life completely changed, as she met the Emperor of an entire kingdom and was even invited into the Emperor’s Palace.

Qingqing Mu thought of the first time she met Qingfeng in the wilderness of wild beasts, and she sighed, because she knew then that Qingfeng wasn’t so simple. He was a real dragon and was bound to leave her one day to fly towards higher skies. Nothing could hold Qingfeng, whether it was the Greater Luo City, or Lingyun Country.

The Underworld Emperor was one of the four great monarchs of the Crimson Fire Continent, as he controlled one-sixth of the entire Continent’s surface area, and the area he controlled was the Underworld Necropolis.

It was where the dead were buried. Black fog engulfed the whole area, as if countless wronged ghosts and ferocious souls growled all over.

The Underworld Emperor stood within this black fog without a care, because all of his body was black, as he had already become one with the black fog.

Before him stood an elder, who had a pointy mouth, monkey cheeks, long skinny arms, as his whole body released black fog like a dry corpse. However, his body also released energy that shocked the space, as he had already reached the ninth level of the monarch realm.

The Dried Corpse Elder looked at the Underworld Emperor before him and said with respect, “Emperor, over time, the self-cultivators who hunted Qingfeng have all been killed by him. According to my intelligence, Qingfeng must have reached the ninth level of the spirit monarch realm, or he might have activated a forbidden power. Thes normal self-cultivators would be giving their lives away if they went.”

The Underworld Emperor nodded and said, “I am now at the stage near the Undead Saint Realm, and can’t leave at the moment. Go and hunt down Qingfeng for me now, and you definitely can’t let him reach Fire Emperor Mountain alive.”
