Martial Sovereign of Myriad Realms

The other elders behind him weren't so lucky. Some of those with weaker cultivations started to bleed from their mouths and their spirit energy was close to drying up.    

Rumble …    

The fire dragon crashed into the ground again, and the entire area seemed to be overturned. Along the crack, hundreds of dense cracks appeared, spreading out rapidly in all directions.    

"I can't hold on any longer, why …" He still hasn't appeared?! "    

While Yu Tingtian was observing the big array, he suddenly frowned and looked towards the City Lord's Mansion again.    

"Sect Master, is the backup you spoke of the City Lord?"    

Hearing this, Elder He's expression suddenly became strange as he asked a question.    

Yu Tingtian was the master of the city and the two sects were also the pillars of the Upper City Jinhua. Long before the karmic sinflames showed any signs of rebelling, the City Lord Chi Xiao had guaranteed to Yu Tingtian that if the two sects were in trouble, the City Lord's Mansion would not stand idly by.    

"Sect Master, forgive this old man for speaking bluntly. This old man has always felt that the City Lord is untrustworthy. Do you remember back then, who revealed Shenyue's identity as an Evil Angel, and caused that incident …    

Actually, we could have continued concealing Shenyue's identity. Even though the Evil Angel is ruthless, it's not impossible to suppress her. "    

Elder He hesitated, but in the end, he still opened his mouth.    

There were indeed many suspicious points regarding the events of that year, but very few people brought them up.    

"The past tells us what he did, and now... "Let's focus on dealing with karmic sinflames first."    

Yu Tingtian faintly felt that what Elder He said made sense, but he couldn't quite put his finger on what was wrong.    

Today's situation seemed to be driven by an invisible hand, moving towards an uncontrollable process.    

The situation became more and more serious, but why was it that the mayor had not appeared yet?    

Could it be …    

Was it really as Elder He had said, that everything was a scheme by the City Lord Chi Xiao?    

"..."    

Separated by several dozens of kilometers, on the south side of Upper City Jinhua City, there was a palace hall that stood tall enough to pierce the clouds, and written atop it were three large words: City Lord's Mansion.    

Currently, there was a majestic figure standing above the two Sects with his hands clasped behind his back, watching everything that was happening.    

"City Lord, the hellfire is too fierce. With the help of the death aura, it can't grow any stronger. The Martial Cultivator s of the two sects don't seem to be able to hold on much longer."    

Behind this imposing figure stood many of the staff from the City Lord's Mansion, many of them with anxious expressions on their faces.    

It was obvious that the might displayed by the Red Lotus Conflagration caused them to be extremely fearful.    

However, the City Lord had yet to issue any orders, making it impossible for these people to act on their own.    

Among them, many Martial Cultivator s who were on good terms with the Heavenly And Earthly Essence Sect, such as Guan Buyu, wished that they could leave immediately to save the two sects.    

"Although the Heavenly And Earthly Essence Sect is under the jurisdiction of this city, it is still a fifth-grade sect after all.    

If Royal Sect Master and Sect Master Mo cannot hold on, they will send out a signal for help. At that time, this city lord will take action. "    

City Lord Chi Xiao's expression was calm, and he spoke to the people around him in a calm manner.    

Hearing him say that, the others didn't say anything more. After all, the mayor had held the power of the City Lord's Mansion for so many years, and he was the strongest person in the entire Profound Sky Continent.    

"Everyone, don't worry. As the saying goes, adding flowers to a flower's bloom is better than providing coal through snow. The reason why this city lord did this, was also to have the two sects owe us City Lord's Mansion."    

Seeing that many people did not seem to agree, City Lord Chi Xiao smiled and explained.    

In this way, everyone came to an understanding. The two sects had very high statuses in the Upper City Jinhua, and they even had the vague momentum of walking on equal footing with the City Lord's Mansion. As people of the City Lord's Mansion, they naturally did not wish to see this scene. The City Lord's words could be considered to have entered their hearts.    

As time passed, the temperature on all four sides of the Upper City Jinhua continued to rise. It was difficult for even the best of their abilities to stop the Red Lotus Conflagration from growing.    

In the end, the ground was filled with blazing flames, accompanied by a large amount of death aura. The flames slowly rose, and finally merged into the Void Great Array.    

"Crap, the situation is about to become uncontrollable. The Demonic Fire is growing too fast, the two of us can't hold on any longer!"    

The two elders, Ancient and Elder Ling, finally revealed a terrified expression.    

The spirit energy around their bodies poured indiscriminately towards the great array Energy Shield, wanting to heal that crack. Unfortunately, the fire dragon inside did not seem to be tired, under the constant collisions, the cracks had already spread across the entire Energy Shield, the two strongest Void Great Array, had reached the edge of collapsing while facing the Red Lotus Conflagration s that were struggling to grow stronger.    

Everyone was dumbstruck, their hearts in their mouths, looking at the fire dragon in shock, waiting for the Demonic Fire to break through the array and trample all over the place.    

Roar!    

The Fire Dragon let out an unusually berserk cry, its entire body releasing a red glow, its body expanded like a tornado, and once again crazily collided with the Light Shield.    

Boom! *    

This collision finally became the last straw that broke the camel's back. The protective array formation could no longer hold on and it suddenly collapsed.    

The fire dragon was like a fish entering the sea, escaping from the cage.    

Its ghostly face was full of excitement. Its tail had crushed the remaining energy in its body, and it swam out into the air.    

Boom!    

Tremendous heat waves swept across the land as countless ancient trees in the two sects were burned to ashes. The enormous palaces also turned into a sea of fire.    

With a groan, Gu and Ling respectively spat out a mouthful of Blood Essence s. Only after forcefully suppressing the surging blood Qi did they push apart the Light Curtain s with their hands, reducing the terrifying high temperature by a few degrees.    

"Tingtian, Eternal Rest, two Junior Disciples of the Sect Master, quickly disperse the sect's disciples. This calamity should not be endured by young people."    

Elder Ling's white hair flew in the air and his voice was full of helplessness.    

It was unknown how many years the Red Lotus Conflagration had been imprisoned for, but once it broke out, the resulting disaster would shake the heavens and earth. Even if the two sects' foundation were burned to ashes, it was not impossible.    

Right now, the only thing left to do was to transfer the inner and outer sect disciples and preserve more of their strength for a long period of time before the glory of Heavenly And Earthly Essence Sect would once again appear.    

After hearing Elder Ling's instructions, the faces of the two Sect Master s, Yu Tingtian and Mo Wangu, darkened.    

However, when their gazes shot towards the clawing fire dragon in the air, they looked at each other and nodded. They could only do as Elder Ling said.    

Since the Red Lotus Conflagration had already escaped, then, with the current strength of the two sects, they were indeed powerless.    

"Why hasn't Chi Xiao made his move yet? When was he going to wait? "Could it be …"    

Glancing at the direction of the City Lord's Mansion, Yu Tingtian cursed in a low voice.    

"What?" Yu Tingtian, you were counting on Chi Xiao to make a move? He was too naive. Don't forget how he became the City Lord. Beneath his feet laid the path of blood. With the power of our two sects, he already had the heart to weaken them. How could he lure wolves into the house and drag them into this? "    

Hearing Yu Tingtian's words, Mo Wangu was so angry that he jumped up and down.    

It was just that Yu Tingtian's face was extremely gloomy, and did not bother to talk to him.    

Roar!    

Their conversation was quickly cut off by a fierce roar. After escaping, the fire dragon was dozens of feet long, and it hovered in the air. Its ghostly face's eyes constantly swept over the crowd, filled with a cold and brutal aura.
