38 Chapter 38 (1/2)
The moment Shen Yue and his men killed the Luqian brothers, at the North Heavenly Ice Plains far from the St. Ancestral Mountains, a tall, slender figure sealed inside thick blue ice, opened his eyes. Zhu Long had sensed their deaths.
When Zhu Long became the new Spiritual God of Snow Wind, he had subjugated all of the legend-ranked demon beasts on the continent. He had long ago placed seals to inform him of his minion's death. Now that Yu Yan somehow escaped her prison, she could not be allowed to roam free and contest him for the control of Tiny World!
”I never imagined that that wretch, Yu Yan, would be able to escape from the Black Spring. Those two morons didn't even manage to look after her properly, not to mention letting her escape. They were even killed so easily. Useless!” His enraged voice sounded out through the fissure permeated with ice.
The frigid snow-laden wind that continually blew through the crevice had gathered around the handsome man as if he was an ethereal being of ice. The moment people laid eyes on him, they would get a suffocating feeling, causing their hearts to stop. Peculiar blue pinpricks of light gathered within the demon beast's eyes. They were revolving manifestations of his Power of Law.
”For many millennia I have concealed myself here, awaiting the moment of the seventh lotus's birth. Yu Yan, unless you present your Divine Spark to me, you will die!” The corner of his mouth twitched into a menacing smirk.
In the beginning, his Power of Law started off as streaks of light, then slowly bloomed into mysterious flowers that formed at his side. The first flower, then the second, third...until the sixth one. Now, only one bud remained. It was swelling as though it would burst into bloom at any moment.
His rage caused the temperature to drop significantly. Yu Yan killing his minions and defying his reign over Tiny World gave him the intensity needed to manifest the last lotus.
He had finally created seven lotuses of ice! The feeling was intense, the cumulative effect of thousands of years of training in solitude had paid off! The pure joy at accomplishing his goals produced the first genuine smile on his face in an eon. Zhu Long felt invincible! Even the Nether Lord would have to be cautious when facing him now.
Since the Luqian brothers had failed, he would have to dispose of Yu Yan himself. The Fire Spiritual Goddess was blatantly cultivating her Law, challenging his authority! Obviously, she had forgotten the lesson his demon beast brethren had taught her!
Flexing his muscles, the ice tomb he was sealed in instantly shattered. Rising into the air, he flew out of the frozen crevice and towards the Endless Desert. It would take two days of constant flying, as the Heavenly Ice Plains was quite a distance from the scorching desert.

Zhu Long did not stop at all as he flew towards the source of Fire Law being blatantly broadcast. The thought of that weak fire bitch challenging him drove him onwards at breakneck speeds. Her Divine Spark would soon be his!
Entering the desert, it did not take him long to spy the small army gathered around a giant bonfire. Upon closer inspection, there was a petite woman in a meditative pose sitting at the centre of the inferno. It seems she has recovered more than he thought, no wonder those idiots died.
He quickly scanned the humans around Yu Yan but could not detect any aura, either they were hiding their cultivation somehow, or they were baseline mortals. It did not worry him, as even the remaining Spiritual Gods would have to cower beneath his strength! It mattered not if Yu Yan had somehow managed to gather a thousand legend rank experts, they would be like wheat before the scythe when he attacked!
With nothing to fear from these pathetic humans, Zhu Long descended towards their camp. He could already hear the screams they would make as he tore them limb from limb! With a shudder of pleasure, he called out his challenge.
”Yu Yan you pathetic wretch, hand over your Divine Spark! I will finish what my ancestors started!”
Instantly the raging inferno ceased, and Yu Yan stared up at the newest edition of Spiritual Gods.
”Who are you to speak to me? Lowly Worm!” Said Yu Yan with disdain.
Zhu Long's handsome face morphed into a bestial snarl. ”You dare? Your time is over human, your race is scattered and near extinction! Kneel, and I might keep you as a pet!”
It was Yu Yan's turn to scowl as she spat on the ground as if the mere thought of speaking to this demon beast produced a bad taste in her adorable little mouth.
”Since when has an unknown peasant had the right to speak to me? Your true form must be that of a dog to be barking this much!” She replied scathingly.
Seeing the rage on Zhu Long's face, Shen Yue knew that he would charge in recklessly. His plan to bait the demon beast into the array was all going to plan. With a signal, his men retreated and formed a semi-circle a distance behind Yu Yan.
