Chapter 1999: Entering the Radiance Flame Volcano (1/2)

Even though the Reverence Moon Old Man hadn’t appeared before the world in the past several hundred million years, no one doubted his authority. His words were like an imperial edict in the Radiance World. In fact, his orders used to hold more weight than the Radiance Ancestor in the past.

Now that he was openly supporting Huang Xiaolong, there was no doubt that it was a matter of time before the power of the Radiance World shifted. Those churches who didn’t know which side they wanted to stand on would definitely gather to support Huang Xiaolong.

Bai Hui, Bin Ge, and the others refused to acknowledge the old man’s order. In an instant, boundless might emerged from the depths of the Reverence Moon Academy, and a crushing pressure descended on Reverence Moon Divine City.

In that instant, everyone who failed to leave felt a horrifying weight pressing down on them.

“Who?! That’s a Sovereign’s will! Could it be that deputy directors Bin Ge and Bai Hui are making a move?!” Qin Huangzhong looked at one of the ancestors beside him and exclaimed in shock.

The ancestor was at the peak of the late-Tenth Order Emperor Realm. He was about to break through at any time, and ordinary Sovereign’s will wouldn’t be able to stop him. It was a shame the Sovereign’s will belonged to the Reverence Moon Old Man. Before the horrifying pressure, he felt no bigger than an ant.

Since the strongest person in their party was suppressed, there was no need to mention the other ancestors. When the Reverence Moon Old Man’s Sovereign’s will covered the city, every single Emperor Realm cultivator was forced to their knees. A look of desperation flashed across their faces, and it felt as though someone was grabbing their soul, intending to tear it apart.

“Bai Hui, Bin Ge, Bai Luo, Ban Ke, did I make myself clear? If this happens again, I’ll break both your legs! From now on, Huang Xiaolong’s orders are my orders! After receiving the Radiance Ancestor’s inheritance, Huang Xiaolong is now the Radiance World’s leader! His status will be no lower than mine!” The Reverence Moon Old Man’s voice resounded through the air.

Previously, the Reverence Moon Old Man had only allowed everyone surrounding Huang Xiaolong to listen in on their conversation. However, he no longer bothered hiding Huang Xiaolong’s identity the second time he spoke. His voice resounded through the Reverence Moon Divine City, into the ears of everyone present.

“It’s the Reverence Moon Old Man!” When the ancestor beside Qin Huangzhong heard the voice, his heart skipped a beat, and he stuttered anxiously.

He finally realized whose Sovereign’s will he was facing!

Even though the news of the Reverence Moon Old Man reappearing in the world had started to spread, everyone had felt a little suspicious as none of them had seen the old man in person.

Right now, their doubts were cleared.

Everyone felt their hearts pounding in their chests.

The Reverence Moon Old Man was standing on Huang Xiaolong’s side! There was no doubt about it.

The Reverence Moon Old Man didn’t intend to let everyone off so easily. Instead, the pressure he exerted on them increased again. With the mountain-like pressure crushing down on them, the four deputy deans were flattened against the ground. The Reverence Moon Old Man’s sovereign’s will was like countless ancient mountain ranges pressing down on them. They could hear crackling and popping sounds coming from their bones.

“Old… Old Dean, we will obey your order!” Bai Hui was finally unable to endure it, and he yelled, “From now on, we will listen to Huang Xiaolong! He shall be no less important than you!”

Waves of terror rose in his heart. As a mid-Second Order Sovereign, he was no weakling. However, the Reverence Moon Old Man had managed to suppress him with just his will!

Could it be that the Reverence Moon Old Man has already stepped into the high-level Sovereign Realm?! Did he become the second high-level Sovereign in all the worlds?!

Bin Ge’s thoughts mirrored Bai Hui’s. Even though he was weaker than Bai Hui, it only served to amplify the fear he had for the Reverence Moon Old Man.

After Bai Hui responded, the three of them realized that it was no use trying to resist. In the end, they agreed to whatever the Reverence Moon Old Man said.

Gu Ting hastily forced his lips open to openly praise the Reverence Moon Old Man to prove his loyalty.

“Good!” Even though it seemed as though the Reverence Moon Old Man’s anger had dissipated, a hidden killing intent lingered in the air. He was ready to kill anyone who wanted to remain stubborn. As long as they were unwilling to take Huang Xiaolong as their new leader, the Reverence Moon Old Man was prepared to kill all of them in order to pave the way for Huang Xiaolong.

Feeling the lingering killing intent in the air, the four deputy directors felt cold sweat dripping down their forehead. They were clear that they had managed to escape from a calamity.
