"Great Sacrificial Officer?"

Chu Fengmian glanced at Gu Fen and upon hearing his words, he couldn’t help but let out a cold laugh and said,

"Chu indeed came here to save someone, but there’s no need to discuss any terms."

Chu Fengmian scanned the crowd with a look of utmost disdain in his eyes.

"You no longer have the right to negotiate terms with Chu. I’ve said it before; all of you kneel and submit, and only then will Chu spare your lives today. Otherwise, you’re all going to die."

Negotiate terms with Chu Fengmian?

Chu Fengmian had no interest in discussing terms with a bunch of ants; today, he was here to thoroughly resolve the nuisance of the royal family of the Qinhuang kingdom.

To Chu Fengmian, none of the people present were even worth considering; even if they all joined forces against him, they were nothing more than ants.

"Chu Fengmian, don’t be so arrogant! You have now intruded into the imperial city. The royal family of our Qinhuang kingdom will not be slaughtered at will. Today, with so many of us powerful individuals present, if we strike together, your death is certain; no matter how formidable you are, you must die today!"

Great Sacrificial Officer Gu Fen, looking at Chu Fengmian, spoke out angrily.

Chu Fengmian’s words were arrogant and conceited to the extreme, showing no interest in continuing any negotiations.

Not submit or die?

Every person present held high positions and great authority within the kingdom and was esteemed. None of them had ever thought about submitting to anyone, not to mention suffering any slight.

Especially Great Sacrificial Officer Gu Fen, who was regarded next to Emperor Qinhuang himself as the foremost figure in the kingdom, revered by all.

Even Zhao Wudi would give him some respect, not daring to provoke him.

For Chu Fengmian to demand his submission today – it was as though a flame of rage had been suddenly ignited in his heart, one that he could no longer suppress.

Today, he decided to fight to the bitter end with Chu Fengmian and would not choose to submit. Moreover, he did not believe that Chu Fengmian could really contend with them, the pinnacle saints.

Although the Sage Ancestor was captured by Chu Fengmian, it was because he feared the great life-and-death catastrophe and did not dare to act.

To avoid the life-and-death catastrophe, they could only control their strength to the level of the ninth rank of Divine Power, which was at least an entire level, a multiple times less powerful, than the pinnacle saints.

If the Sage Ancestor now unleashed all his strength recklessly, it would be an easy feat to break free from Chu Fengmian.

"Great Sacrificial Officer Gu Fen? Since you wish to resist me, then I’ll kill you first, no, with your strength, killing you would be a pity. I will suppress you, inscribe a prohibition on your body, and make you my slave, to serve me."

Chu Fengmian watched Gu Fen and laughed heartily.

With a movement of his palm, he immediately sent a hand pressing towards Gu Fen.

"Thinking of suppressing me! Boy, you are too arrogant!"

Gu Fen roared furiously, his face turning crimson due to extreme anger.

With an angry roar, an extremely strange purple flame manifested on his body.

As soon as the purple flame appeared, the entire palace seemed as if it was about to be scorched, and the countless saints present had to concentrate their Spiritual Power just to withstand the intense heat of the flames.

"Ziyang True Fire! This is one of the strongest flames between heaven and earth. Ziyang True Fire—this flame, coming from above the ninth heaven. Gu Fen had once upon a time fortuitously obtained this Ziyang True Fire; within the realm of Divine Power, almost no one can match it."

"The Great Sacrificial Officer is truly enraged," someone said with a tremble in their voice. "Ignoring the threat of life and death, he’s using his full power. Once the Ziyang True Fire emerges, I’m afraid this young man is going to die."

"Not necessarily, this person’s strength is extremely mysterious; after all, he just recently slew the Poshakiller Prince."

"What’s so great about killing the Poshakiller Prince? If the Great Sacrificial Officer were to use Ziyang True Fire, he could kill the Poshakiller Prince just as easily. Even Zhao Wudi couldn’t resist these flames; I refuse to believe this youngster can withstand them."

Watching Gu Fen make his move, countless saints in the vicinity gasped in astonishment.

Gu Fen had been at the pinnacle of sainthood for nearly hundreds of years, and this was the first time he’d acted in all those centuries.

If it hadn’t been for Chu Fengmian’s infuriating words today, he wouldn’t have been willing to risk the catastrophe of life and death to strike with his full force.

But now that he had thrown his full power into the fray, it signified Gu Fen’s resolve. Today, despite the risk of life and death, he was determined to slay Chu Fengmian.

"You brought this upon yourself, you little beast. Feel the terror of a peak saint! Ziyang True Dragon, annihilate him!"

Countless streams of Ziyang True Fire transformed into a roaring dragon and charged fiercely towards Chu Fengmian.

This dragon, formed entirely out of Ziyang True Fire, was so intensely hot that even saints could not touch it; they could only endure the onslaught without any means of retaliation.

Moreover, the Ziyang True Fire was endlessly forming. As long as Gu Fen possessed Spiritual Power, this dragon would continuously regenerate, nearly invincible.

"Ziyang True Fire? It’s nothing more than the weakest flame in the Upper Nine Heavens, and you treat it like a treasure?"

Chu Fengmian glanced at the Ziyang True Fire and spoke with disdain.

In his former life, he practiced Artifact Refining and Alchemy, often manipulating various flames. The best flames were from the Upper Nine Heavens, and among them, Ziyang True Fire was but the flame of the first layer—also from the Upper Nine Heavens, but the least regarded.

Chu Fengmian, when refining elixirs in his former life, looked down on Ziyang True Fire and had never given it any consideration. Gu Fen’s treating it like a Treasure, to Chu Fengmian, seemed quite laughable.

"War Dragon’s Might!"

With a thought, Chu Fengmian activated all the ancient War Dragon blood within his body. One thousand two hundred and ninety-six drops of ancient War Dragon’s essence blood coalesced simultaneously, forming the true War Dragon’s Claw.

This War Dragon’s Claw, taking shape, was immensely larger than the dragon formed of Ziyang True Fire, and it immediately snatched at the fiery dragon.

In an instant, the dragon of Ziyang True Fire was crushed.

"Boy, you think it’s over just like that?"

Watching the dragon get crushed, Gu Fen let out a cold laugh.

"The Ziyang True Fire can burn everything in heaven and earth. Even your Spiritual Power can be devoured by its flames! You’re still too green to go against me!"

As soon as Gu Fen spoke, the shattered pieces of Ziyang True Fire clambered onto the War Dragon’s Claw, burning fiercely as though they sought to incinerate the claw itself.

"Is that so?"

Chu Fengmian regarded the attempt with a dismissive glance, and with a motion of the War Dragon’s Claw, he scattered the multitude of flames.

Despite being scorched for an extended period, not a single mark marred the surface of the War Dragon’s Claw.

Incredibly, the War Dragon’s Claw showed no fear of the Ziyang True Fire’s burn.

Ancient War Dragons were capable of soaring through the Nine Heavens, and all flames of the Upper Nine Heavens meant nothing to them. The War Dragon’s Claw that Chu Fengmian had formed was also unafraid of the trivial Ziyang True Fire.

To the War Dragon’s Claw, this level of burning was less bothersome than a tickle.
