The Demonic World I designed-Chapter 648 - 638: The Dangerous Emperor!

A thousand meters away, for a master like Zi Yue, there was barely any difference than if it were within arm’s reach, and yet, it was this small distance that she could do nothing about as she watched helplessly!

The overwhelming flames of the Golden Crow incinerated those mysterious players from the high-level guilds in an instant. These individuals might have been lurking and conspiring for tens of thousands of years, plotting the strategies of the top forces, their backing power was something unimaginable to people of this era.

It’s possible that no one had ever truly considered the Emperor of this era seriously.

Even when the Dragon Mother was killed, most people were shocked but deep down believed it was the carelessness of the Black Empress.

No one was willing to admit that the NPC... could overturn everything!!

"Why did you betray the King of Qin?"

Zi Yue’s mind was flooded with the conversations she once had with this person.

"Because he can’t change everything. Everything he does is futile. My betrayal wasn’t based on disliking him as a person. On the contrary, I like him. That guy is probably the most interesting and most thoughtful person I know."

"So, you’re saying you can change everything?"

"I... perhaps I can?"

Boom!

The violent explosion spread for thousands of meters, flames shooting straight up to the Royal Palace’s top, nearly illuminating the entire King Xiang Palace. In that moment, the third version’s top-level Exotic Fire Black Lotus seemed completely incapable of suppressing those soaring golden flames.

This character, who should have been outdated by the version upgrade, now seemed as if he controlled everything!

"Chen Qing..."

Zi Yue stared intently at Chen Qing, feeling utterly powerless at that moment.

And at this critical juncture, Chen Qing’s eyes still remained calm. He himself didn’t understand where this temperament came from. Was it because he played the game so much? It seemed that he had always been like this, the lower his health, the more focused he became...

He didn’t know where the Xiao Family Emperor got such formidable power, strong enough to confront so many Transcendents head-on, but in this moment... it was certainly not a dead end!

"Oh?"

King Xiang, who had been looking at the sky until then, finally turned around to look at Chen Qing.

The godly speed formed by combining the secret techniques of Wind Spirit and Thunder Department Combat God, was almost on par with the Ghost King Level, and even such a mighty Emperor couldn’t keep up with Chen Qing’s movements in that instant, watching as Chen Qing lunged at King Xiang with his sword.

At that moment, King Xiang finally moved. Imperial Aura surged around his body, he caught Chen Qing’s sharp sword light with his bare hands, and tore apart Chen Qing’s sword!

It must be said that King Xiang indeed deserved to be assessed as the strongest single entity among the King Level Bosses from the second version. Even with his strength not fully recovered, he easily neutralized Chen Qing’s strike, which was comparable to that of a King Level.

Nevertheless, it came at a cost. Four fingers on one hand shattered, and his whole arm cracked, clearly unable to bear his own tremendous power. But ultimately, he neutralized Chen Qing’s most powerful strike.

From a distance, Zi Yue’s heart was jolted. Instead of despairing at Chen Qing’s final move being blocked, her eyes shone bright at that moment! freeweɓnøvel~com

Chen Qing’s strike might not have been successful and he was surrounded by enemies, but the situation was different. Why couldn’t the other players resist at all?

Because they had all placed Techniques on each other, which forced them to strike with full force against King Xiang, and trying to resist would result in the Technique backfiring. Of course, another important reason was the unexpectedly overwhelming power of the Xiao Family Emperor.

But Chen Qing found a lifeline at the crucial moment, since the technique stipulated that he must strike at King Xiang with all his might, he would abide by the technique. Using speed, Chen Qing unraveled what should have been an inescapable situation...

Very suddenly, King Xiang retreated, and the terrifying flames of the Golden Crow behind Chen Qing also vanished in an instant. Whether it was the once-strongest Ghost King or the human Emperor, at this moment, they tacitly refrained from pursuing their advantage and retracted all their power.

Chen Qing did the same, immediately retracting all his power after being forced back and stood still.

A kilometer away, the space visibly shook, and the only two guild players who hadn’t died stood there, letting the words of the Golden Crow burn their bodies, daring not to move.

One breath... Two breaths...

As the flames burned and their bodies visibly melted away, Wang Shiyu struggled to look at Chen Qing, "Save me..."

As he spoke, his eyeballs fell out due to the melting of his face, creating an extremely uncomfortable scene.

A twitch appeared at the corner of Chen Qing’s mouth, "What do I have to save you with?"

This was not an attempt to shirk responsibility; he wasn’t particularly fond of guild players, but at this time, to be honest, if he had the capability to save one, he would have made the move. The Siao Family was more terrifying than imagined, and if he had guessed correctly, this round, what the other party was using was that classic segment from when he designed the Ghost Domain instance!

Sure enough... In the next instant, green flames ignited in the eyes of Wang Shiyu, whose eyeballs had melted away. The flames of the Golden Crow visibly died down, and a green flame rose, rapidly melting away the flesh of Wang Shiyu, leaving only stark white bones and a pair of eyes blazing with green flames...

It wasn’t just Wang Shiyu; almost all the players who had been burned to death just moments ago had become standing skeletons, emitting a cold and terrible aura.

Watching this scene, the only female player left alive fell silent. Ignoring the pain of her flesh melting, she stared blankly at it all, then turned her gaze to the Xiao Family Emperor.

"Is this look in your eyes suggesting you no longer recognize Us?" the Emperor said with a slight smile.

The female player recalled how upon their first meeting with the senior guild members still in seal, the Emperor, faced with those powerful beings looking down on him from beyond the sky, never once showed a hint of fear or submission. Even when faced with power that exceeded his imagination, he still referred to himself as... "We."

The chairman had said he was a man of great ambition, but perhaps even the chairman underestimated the extent of his ambition!

His ambition was larger than anyone could imagine, perhaps even larger than that of the King of Qin who once sought to change the world...

This man... is very dangerous, even more dangerous than the ancient Demon Statues from beyond the sky!!

"You will regret this!" the female player said to the Emperor, enunciating every word. "The people you love, the ones you cherish, will die one by one before you, in the cruelest of ways."

"What a boring threat..." the Emperor chuckled. "From the moment I decided to do this, there was no such thing as a loved one to Me... My love is for all the people, of course... you all are not included!"

This man... must die!!

That moment, the female player felt an unprecedented threat, she even felt that this man posed an even greater danger than the other three guilds!

Without hesitation, she charged at the Emperor with the power of the Golden Crow’s flames.

The Emperor didn’t even look at her. The woman had not yet reached him when she disappeared between heaven and earth, and the sound that followed was a chilling crunching...

"So it was such a group of people who controlled the world for so many years?" The Emperor looked at Chen Qing. "You are a little different, though."

Chen Qing looked back at him. In that moment, in the same palace, facing the same person, he suddenly felt like nothing had changed at all—their gap seemed to have always been the same.

"You’re not bad, indeed not bad, you managed to find a sliver of a chance to survive even in this situation." The Emperor regarded Chen Qing. "I’m more and more impressed with you. Though you are of a foreign race, I am willing to give you a chance, just one."

He looked intently at Chen Qing, "Would you... pledge loyalty to Me?"
