“Were you the one prying around earlier?” When the man in the blue shirt waved the icy blue feather fan and spoke, all the groups turned their gazes toward Mu Chen.
“I think he is a human being… He is with the Nine Nether Clan and Demonic Rhino Clan. He has the nerve to provoke Phoenix Clan.”
“Bai Ming is not to be trifled with. I have heard that he just reached Grade Eight Sovereign. The Quasi-Divine Artifact in his hand has been bestowed to him by the Phoenix Clan. It is known as the Ice Phoenix Spiritual Fan. It has great combat force, and one can use it to fight a true Grade Eight Sovereign.”
“This guy thinks too highly of himself…”
“…”
The people around whispered among themselves, and many groups were gloating over Mu Chen’s misfortune. Mu Chen was only a Grade Six Sovereign, but he had provoked Bai Ming. He was courting his own doom.
The beautiful lady from the Nine Hues Peacock Clan glanced at Mu Chen and looked away. She was not interested in a Grade Six Sovereign human being. A few geniuses from the Giant Bird Clan folded their arms and looked eagerly at Mu Chen. They were waiting to watch the fun. The rest of the supreme clans looked on indifferently. They were not related to Mu Chen, thus there was no reason for them to offend such a powerful clan like the Phoenix Clan.
Nine Nether and the rest turned pale as the people looked at them mockingly. They had not expected the man in the blue shirt to be so sharp in singling Mu Chen out as the one spying on them.
Mu Chen frowned, but he was otherwise expressionless. He was not flustered by the sharp look from the man in the blue shirt. “This is not someone’s courtyard. Why can’t I look around?” Mu Chen said calmly, with his brows raised.
The moment he made the remark, many of the groups raised their brows. They had expected Mu Chen to beg for forgiveness but instead, he had rebutted Bai Ming.
Where did this guy get his courage from?
When Bai Ming heard what Mu Chen had said, he curled up his lips into a smile. However, there was no warmth in his smile, and he looked frightening.
“Brother Bai Ming, this is the guy whom we met earlier!” Someone stood up behind Bai Ming. He looked familiar. He was Bai Bin, who had had a conflict with Mu Chen and his companions at the Free Trade Zone.
“Oh?” Bai Ming was shocked. He then shook his head and said, “We don’t have to hunt around for him then. He just makes his way here. I was still scratching my head as to where to find him.”
Bai Bin looked mockingly at Mu Chen. He felt sorry for Mu Chen, as he knew that Mu Chen would soon be in deep sh*t!
Chi Hongwu from the Scarlet Phoenix Clan, who was behind Bai Ming and the rest, raised her brows and stared at Mu Chen. She said coldly, “You don’t know who you are talking to. If you back off now, you may be able to stay alive.” Although she sounded cold, it was apparent that she was trying to persuade Mu Chen to back off so that he would not die in vain.
Bai Ming looked thoughtfully at Chi Hongwu and knew her intention. However, she ignored him. Although Bai Ming was the team leader, he could not do anything to her, as she was from the Scarlet Phoenix Clan.
Mu Chen was shocked that Chi Hongwu had cautioned him. He looked at her and realized that although she looked pampered, she had quite a good character. However, Mu Chen would not back off. He was not afraid of Bai Ming, even though he was from the Phoenix Clan.
This was a problem among the younger generation, and the entire clan would not be involved. If Bai Ming had been defeated, he would be too ashamed to ask for help, as he would be making himself a laughing stock by doing so.
Mu Chen shook his head and said with a smile, “I am here for the Divine Cemetery. Why should I leave here empty-handed?”
Chi Hongwu widened her eyes and looked at Mu Chen. She had already put it across plainly to him, but Mu Chen still insisted on staying, despite having to face Bai Ming’s rage. Is something wrong with him? She gritted her teeth and was fuming with anger. After glaring at Mu Chen, she looked away and could not be bothered with him.
Many of the groups had strange expressions, and some of them were laughing within themselves. This human being is foolish yet interesting. Since he did not accept Chi Hongwu’s advice, Bai Ming will not let him off so easily.
As they had expected, Bai Ming waved his feather fan, stared at Mu Chen, and said, “Although you are not powerful, you do have guts… I can let you enter the Divine Cemetery and even help you remove the obstructions. However, I need something from you. What do you think?”
Light flashed in Mu Chen’s eyes as he looked at Bai Ming. There was greed in Bai Ming’s eyes, and he seemed interested in something that Mu Chen possessed.
Mu Chen suddenly thought of the Spirit of the Real Phoenix in his body that had been formed by the Blood Essence of the real phoenix. If those from the Phoenix Clan were to absorb and refine it, the power of their bloodline would be enhanced. This was crucial to Mu Chen for refining the Dragon-Phoenix Body. It would be impossible for him to give it to Bai Ming.
Mu Chen simply shook his head and said, “No way.”
Bai Ming was not surprised. He sneered and said, “It makes sense for you to reject my offer, but… are you in a position to reject it?” A horrifying gust of cold air burst out from his body, and the space before him froze. White cold air swept out like a streamer and swirled toward Mu Chen and his companions.
The white cold air was overbearing. Wherever it passed, even the spiritual energy was frozen. The groups around them quickly backed away and became wary. Bai Ming was powerful, and even those Peak of Grade Seven Sovereigns would not dare to come into contact with the cold air.

When Nine Nether, Han Shan, and the rest saw it, they tensed up. The spiritual energy around them surged, and they were prepared to fight back. Although they would be at a disadvantage going head-on with the Phoenix Clan, they could not possibly sit around and do nothing.
However, at this point, Mu Chen stepped forth. There was no spiritual energy around him. It was as though he had let down all his defenses.
“You are courting your own doom!”
When the groups saw that Mu Chen, who was only a Grade Six Sovereign, did not put up any defense in the face of Bai Ming’s attack, they shook their heads. This guy is crazy.
Bai Ming was shocked by Mu Chen’s action as well. He frowned, and cold light flashed in his eyes. He immediately flicked his fingers, and a stream of cold light shot straight toward Mu Chen’s chest.
The blow would be enough to inflict serious injury on Mu Chen.
Mu Chen remained expressionless as the cold air swirled toward him. He lifted up his hands and opened his palms. A silver heart about the size of a fist was pumping slowly in his palms. Every time it pumped, it thundered and sent out destructive fluctuations that caused everyone to turn ghastly pale.
It was the Heart of the Thunder-Devouring Beast.
“What is that?”
“It is so powerful!”
“Is this guy crazy? He is getting all of us into trouble!”
The groups turned pale and quickly backed off in a sorry state. Although they did not know what Mu Chen was holding in his hand, they knew that once the destructive fluctuations exploded, all of them would be affected.
There was a great commotion, but Mu Chen remained expressionless. He threw the silver heart at the stream of cold air, and his fearless attitude caused everyone to break out into cold sweat.
Bai Ming fixed his gaze on Mu Chen. He had sensed that the silver heart was powerful, and even he was shuddering with fear. Mu Chen was not fearful of him, as he had this thing to back him up. If Bai Ming backed off now, the people would think that he was afraid of Mu Chen.
“I don’t believe that you would be so crazy!” Bai Ming looked grave. The stream of cold air did not seem to be affected, and it continued to whoosh toward Mu Chen.
Swoosh!
As the silver heart and cold air were about to collide, a ray of multicolored light shot down from the heavens and dispersed the icy cold air.
Boom!
The shadow of a staff landed from the sky and burst part of the cold air into nothingness.
Swoosh! Swoosh!
Several sharp and powerful attacks seemed to come at the same time and wiped out the cold air completely. After the cold air had been wiped out, Bai Ming turned gloomier. He turned to look at the rest of the supreme clans who had thrown out the attacks.
The lady from the Nine Hues Peacock Clan looked at Bai Ming and said coldly, “If you have any feud, go and settle it elsewhere. This is the entrance of the Divine Cemetery. If it has been destroyed, are you able to compensate us for our loss?”
“Hahaha, he will not be able to compensate us,” The skinny man from the Heaven Piercing Ape Clan said with a smile.
A top power from Divine Crane Clan said, “Brother Bai, cool down. This is not the place to fight.”
A few top powers from the supreme clans commented simultaneously, which caused Bai Ming to fume with anger. However, he was wary of these people and did not want to offend them. After taking a deep breath, he looked sullenly at Mu Chen and sat down cross-legged again without saying a word. Everyone could tell that Bai Ming was enraged.
The people then turned to look at Mu Chen in bewilderment. Instead of countering Bai Ming’s attack, he simply took out an item and forced Bai Ming into a corner. This was beyond everyone’s expectation.
Moreover, Mu Chen was able to force the top powers from the supreme clans to step in and stop Bai Ming. This had created a grudge between them, thus it would be a trigger point if they should have discord in the future.
This simple gesture from Mu Chen was enough to shock everyone. They no longer dared to look down on him. Even the beautiful lady from the Nine Hues Peacock Clan looked intently at Mu Chen. From the conflict, they realized that this Grade Six Sovereign human being was not as rash and useless as they had thought.
Some of the top powers looked at one another secretly and nodded. This human being by the name of Mu Chen was not a simple person…
