Chapter 1407: Terrorizing Everyone

Mu Chen's cold voice resounded throughout the area, shocking many top powers. Apparently, they had not expected Mu Chen to remain fearless in the face of the three Spiritual Grade Heavenly Sovereigns. But, not only was he fearless, but he had challenged them as well! He did not seem afraid that the three of them would join forces in order to deal with him.

The faces of Sage Zi Qi, Emperor Long Diao, and Reverend Thunder darkened when they heard what Mu Chen had just said. Ever since they had stepped into the Heavenly Sovereign level, they had not come across anyone who dared to challenge them!

"Master Mu is so cool! Are you thinking of taking on the three of us alone?" Emperor Long Diao asked as he looked at Mu Chen coldly.

Mu Chen asked, "Is there a problem if I say yes?"

After Mu Chen said that, a spiritual light surged around the black and white Mu Chens, who were beside him. They then turned into a Spiritual Body. Apparently, they had gone into fighting mode!

At this moment, everyone finally realized that Mu Chen was serious! He truly wanted to challenge the three Heavenly Sovereigns!

When the three Heavenly Sovereigns saw Mu Chen's cold and sharp look, they were suddenly afraid. They finally realized that Mu Chen, who possessed two replicas who were both at the Heavenly Sovereign level, was as powerful as the three of them!

They now knew that, if they fought with Mu Chen, even if they managed to defeat him, they would have to pay a high price for it. One of them might even be killed. Such a consequence was too serious!

They had spent so many years cultivating their strengths before they stepped into the Heavenly Sovereign level, and they had not enjoyed enough glory or respect from the people yet. So, if they got into a life-and-death fight with Mu Chen, it would not be worth it.

Moreover, the three of them were not monolithic, which meant that they were at odds with one another. If Mu Chen had not been so powerful, the three of them would not have joined forces to take him on.

None of them trusted one another when they had formed this last minute alliance. If any of them chose to back out when they were about to fight, the rest of them would be in dire straits.

On the contrary, Mu Chen's replicas had come from the same body, so they were connected on a deep level and had no agendas of their own. So, once they joined forces, the three Heavenly Sovereigns would not be able to contend with them, as the three Heavenly Sovereigns were not of the same mind.

Under such conditions, once they started to fight, it would be highly unlikely that the three Heavenly Sovereigns could defeat Mu Chen and his replicas. Thus, in the face of Mu Chen, who was fearless and aggressive, the three Heavenly Sovereigns became hesitant, then grew silent.

When the top powers in the area saw that the three Heavenly Sovereigns had been silenced, they were shocked. No one had expected that the three Heavenly Sovereigns would ever be afraid of Mu Chen!

Does this mean that, even if the three Heavenly Sovereigns have joined forces to deal with Mu Chen, they are still fearful of him?

Everyone fixed their gazes on Mu Chen, who was standing in the sky with his hands behind his back. They were all filled with respect for him.

His overbearing power was beyond description, as he was able to subdue the three Heavenly Sovereigns based on his strength alone. If this piece of news were to travel, Mu Chen would be well-known throughout the entire Great Thousand World!

The three Heavenly Sovereigns kept quiet for a long while before Sage Zi Qi finally asked, "Master Mu, don't you think you have gone a bit overboard?"

Mu Chen replied flatly, "When the three of you instigated Ancestor Xuan Tian to create trouble for my Mu Estate, weren't you going overboard?"

He lifted up his eyes to stare at the three Heavenly Sovereigns, then added, "Today, if I do not handle this matter well, my Mu Estate will not be able to have a day of peace in the future. If the three of you decide to take me on, I am fine with that. However, if you decide not to, then you must leave the North Territory!"

Sage Zi Qi furrowed his brows, then smiled wryly. Although there were many resources in the North Territory, the Zi Qi Spiritual Cave was, after all, a supreme power. As such, the North Territory was only one of their assets. Thus, if he got into a life-and-death fight with Mu Chen over this, it would not be worth it.

After considering this, he shook his head and said, "In that case, to show our apologies toward Master Mu, the Purple Cloud Sect, which is under the Zi Qi Spiritual Cave, will vacate the North Territory."

Since he knew that the situation was stacked against him, he immediately backed down. After all, the Mu Estate was not to be trifled with.

As long as Mu Chen was around, the Mu Estate had three Heavenly Sovereigns to guard it. This made the Mu Estate far more powerful than the Zi Qi Spiritual Cave.

When Reverend Lightning saw that Sage Zi Qi had retreated, he shook his head helplessly and said, "Thunder Mountain will leave as well."

When Emperor Long Diao saw this, he was furious. However, since the two Heavenly Sovereigns had decided not to fight Mu Chen, he was unable to contend with Mu Chen alone.

Clearly frustrated, he snorted and stared fiercely at Mu Chen. Then, without a word, he moved turned into a streamer, then shot up to the sky and left.

When Reverend Purple Cloud, Golden Eagle King, and Reverend Thunder saw what had happened, their faces darkened and they looked bitter. They had never expected that their pillars of strength would desert them without fighting Mu Chen!

They certainly couldn't contend with the Mu Estate without their support! From now on, they would no longer have any standing in the North Territory.

When Mu Chen saw that the three Heavenly Sovereigns had made their decisions, a light flashed across his eyes. He was not surprised by their decisions. From the beginning, he knew that they would not dare take him on, as they had their own agendas and were not united.

However, this happened only after Mu Chen had suppressed Ancestor Xuan Tian. If they had managed to save Ancestor Xuan Tian from his hands, the situation would have been quite different.

"In that case, I shall not see you off," Mu Chen said flatly as he cupped his hand at Sage Zi Qi and Reverend Lightning.

Sage Zi Qi and Reverend Lightning felt humiliated, so they were fuming with anger. However, they did not say a word. Instead, they just left, as it would be humiliating for them to stay in this place.

After the three Heavenly Sovereigns had left, the horrifying oppression that had covered the place gradually dissipated. The top powers then heaved sighs of relief and wiped away the cold sweats that had broken out on their foreheads.

As Mu Chen waved his sleeve, the black and white Mu Chens disappeared. The pagoda that was in his hand then turned into a ray of spiritual light and shot back into his eyes.

Mu Chen then stood in the sky and looked around. His dark gaze seemed to pierce through the void as he saw many top powers in the distance, all of whom were secretly watching what had just taken place.

When those top powers noticed Mu Chen looking at them, they immediately averted their gazes. They felt that it was a pity.

If Mu Chen had not been so powerful, many of them would have dashed out to fight over the Mu Estate. However, Mu Chen was too overbearing, so he had managed to save the Mu Estate from falling into their hands!

After this day, everyone knew that the Mu Estate would become one of the top forces in the entire Tianluo Continent. In the future, it might even be able to seize control of the entire Tianluo Continent and become the Overlord of this supreme power!

When the time was ripe for Mu Chen, he would definitely rise up and amaze everyone with his power. Then, he would be unstoppable. The Mu Estate would then ride the coattails of his impressive reputation and become one of the supreme powers!

After those top powers had stopped watching from afar, Mu Chen withdrew the horrifying power that was around him. He then moved his body and landed in front of the Mu Estate.

"Welcome back, Estate Master!" When Liu Tiandao and the rest of the top powers saw that Mu Chen had landed, they knelt down respectfully before him. They were filled with respect for him.

When Mu Chen saw the top powers of the Mu Estate, he realized that the number in the high ranking positions had dwindled since he had left. When Mandela noticed the strange look on Mu Chen's face, she stepped forth and said, "During this last half a year, many of them left due to Ancestor Xuan Tian's oppression."

When Mu Chen heard this, he looked calm and said, "Maybe it's just as well. It is pointless to keep those people who will leave us in times of difficulty. It would do us more harm than good by having such people among us."

Mandela nodded in agreement. After all, these people were ungrateful. If they had stayed, they would only have become a hindrance to the growth of the Mu Estate, which had gradually grown to become a giant!

"Regarding those forces who left us, confiscate all of their assets and chase them out of the North Territory. From now on, if they ever dare to come to the North Territory again, kill them!" A cold light flashed across Mu Chen's eyes.

In order for the Mu Estate to continue to exist, he had to punish those who deserved it. For those people who had left the Mu Estate, he had to punish them as a warning to the rest.

Liu Tiandao and the leaders of the various forces shivered when they heard Mu Chen's cold voice. They were glad that they had stayed true. If they had been blinded by success and left the Mu Estate, they would have ended up like the rest of them who had left!

"When there is a punishment, a reward will be given as well." Mu Chen looked warmly at those forces who had chosen to stay in the Mu Estate.

He then said, "All of the assets that will be confiscated will be passed on to the sects that have stayed. They will be divided according to each of their merits. Also, in the next three years, they will receive double portions of the Heavenly River Cultivation Order."

When the leaders of the forces heard what Mu Chen had said, they were elated. Many of the forces had left the Mu Estate, and if they could get their hands on their assets, their powers would be greatly enhanced!

The Heavenly River Cultivation Order was precious as well, as it would give their disciples and men more opportunities to cultivate in the Heavenly River in order to boost their strengths.

At this instant, all of the leaders knelt down before Mu Chen. Then, with heartfelt admiration for him, they all said respectfully in unison, "Thank you for this reward, Estate Master!"

Mandela and Ling Xi looked at each other and smiled. Mu Chen had used this carrot and stick approach to bring all of the leaders into submission. They had known as soon as Mu Chen returned as a Heavenly Sovereign, the Mu Estate would rise up…

This time around, no one would be able to stop them!
