Chapter 789 (Invitation from the Voidless Empire)
Mu Ran looked at her master's body in front of her, feeling a bit distracted. This place used to be her home, but now... it felt so unfamiliar. Everyone here seemed so unfamiliar.
"Mu Ran didn't do it! Naturally, I won't admit it!" At this moment, Mu Ran's eyes revealed determination. Why should she take the blame for their mistakes?
"Unrepentant!" Lan Gu let out a cold snort and extended her index finger!
A white aura surged forth with a sense of death, aiming at Mu Ran's forehead. However, Mu Ran seemed to have already anticipated the outcome, and she slowly closed her eyes...
She realised she was wrong... what the Emperor said was true.
After waiting for a long while, Mu Ran didn't feel the touch of death. Slowly, she opened her eyes again, only to see the tall figure appearing in front of her once more!
Tears welled up in Mu Ran's eyes instantly. This was the third time!
Every time, Cang Konghong stood before her like this, blocking the threat of death.
Cang Konghong's actions were undoubtedly breaking through Mu Ran's defence against feelings of being a young girl. Every girl has a dream that their beloved man would shield them from wind and rain. Mu Ran was no exception.
Although Cang Konghong's appearance was ugly, his heart was better than anyone present.
Cang Konghong's tall figure stood erect in front of Mu Ran. The white aura had hit Cang Konghong's abdomen just now.
But his solid abdominal muscles remained intact.
This left Lan Gu and the elders dumbfounded.
How could this be possible? The Sect Master's technique couldn't even harm him!
Everyone's gaze grew solemn.
"Who are you?" Lan Gu didn't dare to be careless. This person had effortlessly taken his blow, showing his strength!
Incredibly powerful!
Cang Konghong didn't speak, but Mu Ran behind him said, "He's my protector."
Lan Gu suddenly burst into laughter, tinged with deep sarcasm, "Mu Ran! You're quite audacious now! Lying seems so effortless for you! It seems your strength as a Heavenly Dao Warrior has blinded you!"
Mu Ran slowly stood up, staring at Lan Gu, "Sect Master, every word Mu Ran said is true!"
"Then I'll start by killing this traitor!" Lan Gu's figure suddenly disappeared. In the blink of an eye, he appeared in front of Mu Ran, her five fingers forming claws as he lunged toward Mu Ran's neck.
However, an even larger hand suddenly appeared!
It firmly grabbed Lan Gu's wrist.
Lan Gu was shocked, and Mu Ran even more so.
Cang Konghong... he actually managed to grab the Sect Master's wrist!
At this point, Cang Konghong had no choice but to unleash his strength; otherwise, Mu Ran would die.
Moreover, he had been holding back for a long time! He had long wanted to take down everyone in this room! A bunch of scum! Bullying a loyal girl!
Lan Gu's left hand instantly formed a longsword! It thrust straight towards Cang Konghong's heart!
Ding!
The blade pierced Cang Konghong's chest, but it produced a strange sound. Cang Konghong's skin seemed as hard as steel; the sword tip couldn't pierce even a fraction of an inch.
Lan Gu was dumbfounded...
Yu Wenxiang was too.
Qi Le was stupefied.
Ma Zhi felt like he was dreaming.
Mu Ran was even more astonished, her mouth agape. How did Cang Konghong suddenly become so powerful!
Cang Konghong held onto Lan Gu's wrist and swung her away as if slapping a pancake.
Bang!
A hole appeared in the roof of the main hall. The Sect Master of the Supreme Spirit Sect was thrown out by Cang Konghong, with no idea whether he might become a star.
The entire main hall fell into silence, as if you could hear a pin drop.
The Sect Master had been thrown out, and the three elders dared not say a word!
Cang Konghong gripped Mu Ran's small hand, causing a faint blush to appear on her pale face.
"Let's go." A muffled voice came from under the iron mask.
Mu Ran stared blankly at Cang Konghong, realising that she couldn't quite understand him. Wasn't he mute? How was he speaking?
Though filled with puzzlement, Mu Ran still followed Cang Konghong as he left. The Supreme Spirit Sect had turned sour.
Seizing the moment when Mu Ran wasn't paying attention, Cang Konghong flicked his fingertip, releasing a subtle flame that stealthily entered Ma Zhi's body.
This man should have died outside the Voidless Empire!
After Cang Konghong led Mu Ran away, Ma Zhi suddenly felt an intense restlessness within his body, as if a ball of fire was burning him...
"Ah! Ah! Ah!!!" Ma Zhi let out a miserable scream.
Beneath his skin, a fiery red glow spread, as though something was burning beneath his flesh.
Yu Wenxiang and Qi Le were dumbfounded. In the blink of an eye, Ma Zhi collapsed helplessly, his body exuding a charred scent.
His skin turned pitch-black.
Not long after, Lan Gu, who had been thrown out, returned... His white hair was in complete disarray, looking as if he had just come back from a ride in an open-top sports car.
"Where is he?" Lan Gu angrily shouted, unable to maintain his image as the Sect Master.
"Gone already." Yu Wenxiang trembled as he spoke, the opponent was too terrifying.
Lan Gu seemed to sigh with relief and looked at Ma Zhi, "What happened to him?"
"Don't know, he suddenly caught fire." Qi Le also lost his previous arrogance, speaking softly.
Lan Gu's voice grew heavy, "I didn't expect... Mu Ran actually found such a powerful protector for herself! I underestimated her!"
"Sect Master, this protector is very strong. What should we do?" Yu Wenxiang asked in a low voice.
"Humph! Since Mu Ran is ruthless, don't blame me for being ruthless too. Aren't her parents in the Divine Steppes?"
Hearing the Sect Master's words, the two elders understood instantly.
"No one is allowed to divulge a word about today's events!" After making such a fool of himself, Lan Gu definitely didn't want anyone else to know. His dignity had been scraped off the floor.
"Yes!" everyone replied respectfully.
However, just at that moment, a voice suddenly rang out!
"The Voidless Empire requests your presence! The Sect Master of the Supreme Spirit Sect must arrive in the Voidless Empire in five days! If not, disaster will befall your sect!"
Of course, it was Bai Gu who spoke. Conveying such messages seemed to be his specialty; he was really good at scaring people. After delivering the message, Bai Gu went to convey it elsewhere.
However, Lan Gu and the others hadn't reacted yet. They even felt like they were hearing things.
"Sect Master... I think I just heard..." Yu Wenxiang muttered, his gaze filled with astonishment.
"I heard it too..." Qi Le also spoke with trepidation.
Lan Gu's face darkened. Damn the Voidless Empire, they were trampling on the dignity of the Supreme Spirit Sect!
On the other side, Bai Gu arrived at the Divine Steppes. At this time, the prince hadn't returned yet, and King Feng Yong Chang was pondering in his study, his expression heavy.
"The Voidless Empire requests your presence. The Emperor of the Divine Steppes must arrive in five days, or disaster will befall your nation!"
Feng Yong Chang was taken aback, looking around. Could it be that he had an illusion? But the palace maids' expressions showed confusion too.
"Did you all hear that just now?" Feng Yong Chang asked in a deep voice.
The palace maid standing nearby quickly kneeled down; those words just now were a grave offence.
Seeing the palace maids' reactions, Feng Yong Chang's face turned gloomy. It seemed his plan had failed!
