Getting a Sugar Mommy in Cultivation World!! - Chapter 815 - 815: Strongest Ruler of the Past V/s The Strongest Ruler of The Present.

“What?” Just as she was about to unleash her own attack, Feng Niu gasped in shock, looking around. One second she was fighting Wuhan in the middle of the capital city, and the next she was standing in the middle of the wilderness.

As far as her senses went, she could only sense trees, mountains, and wild beasts.

‘Did he ambush me?’ Noah’s image flashed in her mind, but then she shook it off, seeing Wuhan standing a few steps away from her, looking equally puzzled.

“What? No—”

Just before he was about to say something, a voice echoed in the area.

“Took some time, but I finally managed to do it before you two destroyed any more of the city.”

Wuhan instantly recognized the voice, time, and voice; it belonged to none other than Noah.

“Now, you can go all out.”

As the voice drifted away, Feng Niu looked at her son and asked, “your friend?”

Seeing Wuhan’s lack of response and raised weapon voice, she took it as a confirmation and continued, “You should be careful who you make friends with. For emperors there are only people who can bring them benefits or be a weapon or be of use to them. When you get close to a being who is way over your league, you always have to be careful, or you might not know when your head is sitting on the throne instead of your ass.”

Boom!

“Ara, did you get angry for that man?” Sparks flew as she blocked the incoming sword with her bare arm.

Her arms covered in darkness looked like she was wearing thin gloves, careful, but their toughness surpassed even the treasured swords of Rank 6.

“Stop trying to gather information from me. You will be dying soon, treasured one, so they will be of no use to you.” Wuhan chuckled in contempt at her pitiful attempts and slashed his sword a couple more times.

‘I have to refill my reserves. But I cannot also let this fight go on for a long time.’ Several thoughts moved through his mind at the same time.

At the same time back in the capital city. Noah descended soon, descended from the sky with Xin Yan, and sighed. “I am loosindescendedlosingg my touch. If it was before, I would have done long-distance-losing-distance teleportation with a single snap of my finger. But now I have to prepare for so long.”

Hearing his words, Xin Yan chuckled dryly and asked, “Where did you send them? I can no longer sense them in this Empire.”

Her soul sense was so powerful that it could cover an entire empire—that empire, which spanned thousands of kilometers.

Yet, even then, she found no traces of the mother and son within her senses.

“Just an abandoned island I encountered on my way to Elven, the Elvenire. It is far enough so their forces also cannot sense their battles. I will also go there soon once they start fighting for real.”

Xin Yan’s eyes widened in shock, the Elvenshock. ‘Just how vast are his soul-sense shocks? senses that they can even go beyond the continent and lock on a deserted island?’

With a wave of his hand, Noah dispersed one barrier from around the royal estate while keeping the illusionary barrier intact.

“You should gather people to rebuild this place. I will help you as well.” Noah instructed captain Black Sword, who led the entire force of the empire, back inside.

“Make sure to ask your people to keep everything that happened here a secret.”

He did not even have to say all that, as the captain understood that much on his own. With a nod, everyone went to work without wasting many words.

***

Woosh!

“Your law of flames has reached quite a substantial level.” Feng Niu praised Wuhan without reservation, but the smirk on her face and the ease with which she parried the attack with her own darkness made Wuhan feel nothing but mockery towards himself.

“Compared to me, you are still hundreds of years behind. Allow me to show you how to wield the power of flames.

Feng Niu jumped into the air and raised her hands before her.

Wuhan froze, feeling an inexplicable chill running down his spine. ‘I have to stop her!’

He could feel it in his instincts that if he did not stop her, there would be disastrous consequences.

But… it was already too late.

“Law of the DarkFire.” The former empress whispered under her breath, and the air on the island stilled. “Annihilation!”

BOOM!

A tsunami of flames surged from her hands, unhindered and savage. The crimson violet flames razed everything in their path and swallowed Wuhan whole.

The trees, the boulders, and even Rank 6 Spirit Beasts who were capable of speaking human speech around the area were burnt to a crisp.

The pillar of fire had not even extinguished when Feng Niu grinned and continued, “law of vibration!”

Within the depths of the flame tornado that was soaring to the skies before her, light trembles could be felt.

The trembles were the vibration. She had used the laws of vibration to shake the air molecules themselves.

It was like adding fuel to the fire; the dark flames only grew wilder and deadlier.

“Arghhh!!!! ” From within the depths of this attack, the screams of the Emperor could be heard. The sheer pain behind his voice was heart-wrenching, as if someone was being skinned alive slowly.

And it was true in a way.

Even though the armor he wore tried to stop the injuries, Wuhan’s skin was slowly being burned away from the surface.

Even though the faint green traces of the phoenix power tried to heal him, the damage was being done at a faster rate.

“I did not even use the laws I am proficient in, and you are already dying.” Feng Niu shook her head in disappointment.

Slowly the flames dispersed, revealing a charred corpse. No, Wuhan was still alive.

Although his body had been burnt to a crisp and his heart had stopped beating, the faint crimson hue still pulsed at his abdomen.

“Are you not going to stop me from killing him? He already lost?” Feng Niu suddenly looked over her shoulder and saw Noah standing in the air, not far away. “I must say, although he is stronger than he was a hundred years ago, this was a bit disappointing.”

Her eyes instantly caught how his body was covered in a faint purple hue. Unlike before, she could sense him clearly.

‘Is it because he is allowing me to sense him? ‘ She narrowed her eyes, seeing the lack of motivation in his eyes to stop her. He did not even seem like he wanted to move towards Wuhan. ‘Just like I thought, he is no good for my son.’

“Hey,” Noah finally opened his mouth, his eyes locked with hers for the first time, and Feng Niu felt the same as all of Noah’s enemies did. A deep chill ran down her spine as she felt a shadow of a huge beast’s head covering the sky behind the mysterious man.

Although she could not make out the features of this beast but his eyes, those crystalline eyes that resembled a beast like no other. Each color in existence shining within them, boring holes of indifference in her body.

This feeling made Feng Niu feel weak once more in hundreds of years.

Her face twisted slightly, but she covered her expression instantly.

Noah ignored her expressions and continued with no emotion in his eyes or tone. “Aren’t you underestimating your son a bit? He is already capable of fighting the current you toe-to-toe.”

“Huh?! What are you—”

“Didn’t you notice that even when I brought you two here, he did not use the artifact you have been wary of?”

The former Empress was silenced by Noah’s argument. Her eyes widened slightly as she looked over her shoulder only to see Wuhan lying in the same state.

“To be honest, you did a favor to him by using that power of yours. Now he finally has what he has been lacking.”

As if finally understanding something, she gasped. “You have been—”

Thanks for buying time, man. I can take it from here.] The voice echoed from all directions; Feng Niu finally understood why Noah let himself be found and why he had been talking to her.

It was all to buy time for Wuhan, who had finally grasped…

[Law Of Eternal Flames: Beginning of the Blaze]

From the crimson seed budding within Wuhan’s dantian, flames of different colors rose. Green, orange, crimson, bloody—it was all.

“How could I have forgotten this… The reason I married into the pitiful Feng clan?” Feng Niu laughed with both amusement and self-deprecation. “The bloodline of the immortal phoenix.”

The flames slowly consumed Wuhan’s body, leaving the armor behind until it turned to dust.

Seeing the ashes of her son lying on the ground before her, a flicker of what seemed like pain flashed through her eyes.

“What did they use to say again? …ah, From the ashes, the phoenix shall rise.”

Woosh!
