“Impossible!”
“Are you kidding me?”
One after another, exclamations rang around the lake, as the pupils of Humans and Mutant Beasts shrank, looking at the struggling Titanoboa in the sea of purple. After all, everyone had already learned the horror of Titanoboa first hand.
As a horrifying Ancient Python, its body was impervious to weapons and immune to fire and water.
Its defense was considered top-notch among its peers. Even when Tier-2 Superhumans of the same level attacked it with a blade, they would only manage to leave a white mark on its terrifying body
Yet, this formidable Mutant Beast could not withstand the purple sea of fire.
A chill ran down everyone’s spine, a horrible chill.
Goosebumps exploded all over everyone’s body, looking at the Fire Butterflies that covered more than half of the lake.
At this moment, as if noticing something, a cry of surprise filled the night sky, “Flame Princess, it’s the Flame Princess…”
The voice was filled with shock, as if he could not believe it.
Following the gaze of the speaker, everyone saw a figure quietly standing barefoot on the lush grass by the lake. She had fiery long hair, and as they fluttered, tiny tongues of flames danced along with them.
At a glance, she exuded an inexplicable charm. Her fair feet, sexy and bony ankles, along with her long and slender toes, white with a hint of red, looked quite inviting.
Only, at this moment, most Superhumans subconsciously took a few steps back when they laid their eyes on this enchanting woman.
The Flame Empress was the most mysterious woman in China. She even carried the title of Empress.
It was worth noting that being an ‘Empress’ was taboo in China. However, a woman dared to use it as her title and no one dared to question it.
One could easily tell what this meant.
She might have looked graceful and enchanting, pure and innocent, but for her to ascend to the throne of the most mysterious woman in China, she had paved her way on bones.
All of this was because any man, or woman, who had plotted against her had mysteriously vanished from the face of this earth. Moreover, even peerless prodigies like Zhao Jiao had eaten a loss in her hands, and to this day, he had failed to recover his reputation.
*Haaa…* Each and every Superhuman took a long, deep breath, and their gazes became serious.
“Why would the Flame Princess take action against us like this?” Suddenly, a voice questioned what everyone was confused about.
While there was nothing wrong about taking action against us, doing so when they were surrounded by Mutant Beasts was a recipe to invite disaster.
This was an unspoken agreement in China.
In private, fighting and even bloodshed was acceptable, but when facing external enemies, unity was a must.
However, there was one thing that many Superhuman selectively ignored, and that was the terrifying power that the Flame Princess was displaying at the moment.
Well, a girl, and that too about 18-19 years old, actually possessed such combat power. This was too terrifying.
However, everyone chose to selectively ignore this point.
It was embarrassing, extremely so.
One person, and a woman at that, intercepting everyone including the Mutant Beasts, was not really something to brag about.
Just when many Superhumans were puzzled, they suddenly heard a voice filled with doubt, “Look at her eyes.”
“What!?” Hearing the surprised voice, every Superhuman promptly looked over.
The next moment, a pair of profound eyes with flame flickering within entered everyone’s sight, giving everyone a feeling that they could not see through her.
However, within the depths of those profound eyes, there was a five-color radiance surging.
Faintly, one could see a five-colored lotus, so beautiful that it felt as if it were the embodiment of all worldly beauty, going through a repetitive cycle of withering and blooming, like reincarnation.
“Is she being controlled?” Amidst voices filled with astonishment, everyone looked at each other.
[How is that possible? Could it be that this Spirit Flower can even control the Flame Princess?]
However, at this moment, there was no time for them to question, as the Spirit Flower blooming within the depths of the Flame Princess’ eyes had revealed everything.
And right at this very moment, at a speed visible to the naked eyes, the five-color radiance drifting above the lake transformed into strands, all converging towards the Flame Princess.
At the same time, a menacing aura that made everyone’s hearts sink slowly started rising.
“Uh…”
Everyone sunk into a rare silence. The numerous Superhumans present on the scene felt their scalp tingle.
They knew that the Flame Princess was strong, but they did not know that she was this powerful.
Although, at the moment, it seemed that the Spirit Flower was enhancing the Flame Princess’ strength, that palpating strength emanating from her was still too terrifying.
Even at a distance of hundreds of meters, they could feel a suffocating and scorching heat.
They could imagine how terrifying the Flame Princess was now.
At this moment, the Flame Princess even started rising slowly into the air, as if treading on the air.
Her flickering eyes appeared bottomless.
Her formidable aura seemed to have become tangible, pushing away everything.
At the same time, one after another gorgeous yet eerie Fire Butterflies filled the surroundings.
She was all alone yet she caused innumerable Humans and Mutant Beasts to halt in their tracks.
This was the so-called peerless elegance, which had reached its pinnacle.
…
However, at this moment, completely oblivious to everyone, shrouded by the sea of purple fire, stood an illusory figure with a faint smile on its lips.
“I didn’t expect you to have such means!”
“Means!?” With a triumphant smile, the Spirit Flower explained, without holding anything back, “I only enhanced your strength temporarily. It will return to its original state after a while.”
At this point, Spirit Flower’s voice became helpless as she asked, “What should we do now? There are too many powerful people around. Even with your body’s current strength, it’s impossible to suppress them all!”
Although she had just gained cognizance of this world, she was not naive.
Naturally, she understood that this could only maintain this for a short time.
When the Spiritual Energy of this body was exhausted, the Superhumans and Mutant Beasts would definitely stage a comeback.
At that point, even if she had other hidden cards up her sleeve, it would be futile.
She was ultimately just a Tier-2 Spirit Flower, and despite her enigmatic means, two fists could not defy four hands. This did not include the fact that there were quite a few terrifying existences among those coveting her.
For instance, the mysterious woman who had abandoned her own body to let the Spirit Flower control her.
…
At this moment, seemingly sensing the Spirit Flower’s anxiety, Qing Er curled her lips slightly, and revealed her initial purpose, “Aren’t you planning to escape?”
“Escape? Where would I escape to?” Spirit Flower asked with a tinge of astonishment, a bit puzzled.
“The world is vast. There will always be a place for you. Currently, there are several locations on this continent alone that are enough to keep you worry-free. One is a Forbidden Zone known as Tianshan Mountains. It is rumored to be extremely dangerous. People dare not set foot there. However, if you do go there, it would be a death sentence. After all, even I am somewhat wary of the terror there. As for the second place…”
Speaking of this, Qing Er’s eyes shimmered as she glanced deeply at the south before continuing, “The second place is also a Forbidden Zone, but it is also the most terrifying one. It is known as Misty Mountains. It is the house of the most terrifying Divine Tree. It is most likely the strongest in this continent, maybe even the entire world. Not to mention Humans, even Mutant Beast dare not easily venture there. If you go there, you will naturally be worry-free.”
