Chapter 2780 Moths to the Flame_1
Leng Yaozhu, who was pursuing with all her might, could barely make out the incredibly blurred figure ahead…
She thought to herself, "That figure, it must be him, no mistake about it, but what has he come to the Douling Empire for? Could it be for…"
An idea suddenly sprang to her mind, causing all her nerves to tense up…
Just then, the blurry figure ahead seemed to have noticed her pursuit and couldn't help stopping…
This action allowed the rapidly approaching Leng Yaozhu to clearly see the other's face…
It was… the Ghost Emperor!
Indeed, it was the Ghost Emperor who had sensed the tide turning against him in the great battle and fled!
Leng Yaozhu immediately shouted, "Ghost Emperor, it is you, indeed!"
The Ghost Emperor's eyes, devoid of any emotion, glanced at her and said, "Oh? I wondered who was chasing after me from behind, turns out it's you, Sky Phoenix Douluo!"
"This means we must have a great destiny, to meet here!"
Leng Yaozhu firmly denied, "Ghost Emperor, stop talking to yourself, I have no fate with an evil Soul Master such as you!"
"Say, what is your purpose for coming to the Douling Empire?"
Her gaze was fixed tightly on the other party, fearing any abnormal actions...
The Ghost Emperor wasn't annoyed but smirked, "Don't you know already if I don't tell you, Sky Phoenix Douluo?"
His purpose for coming to the Douling Empire was obvious, to transform all the Soul Masters of the entire empire into evil Soul Masters!
As for the commoners, they had no need to live!
This statement made Leng Yaozhu swallow hard, but she still rebuked, "Do you think you can make the Douling Empire your plaything? Don't even think about it!"
The Ghost Emperor shook his head as if he heard something disappointing, "Foolish, how could someone like you, who cannot break through your shackles, possibly understand my current power?"
"If I wish, I can easily turn all the Soul Masters of the entire Douling Empire into evil Soul Masters and then..."
"Hahahaha!!!"
He did not conceal his ambition, laughing wildly...
Leng Yaozhu took a deep breath and released her Martial Soul, with a Phoenix engulfed in surging flames flickering behind her…
The Ghost Emperor's eyes quietly narrowed, "Sky Phoenix Douluo, do you want to fight me here??"
Leng Yaozhu did not deny it but said full of killing intent, "That's right, if I kill you here, your plans will never come to fruition!"
The Ghost Emperor gazed directly into her pupils, each word deliberate, "Is this truly what's in your heart? Or are you saying this… to comfort yourself out of fear?"
Leng Yaozhu was not so easily affected by his words, her fists clenched tightly, "Fear? No one has yet made me feel fear,"
Even if the end result was death!!
The Ghost Emperor licked his lips, "Really? Then… let's make you my servant."
An Ultimate Douluo would indeed be of great help in the battles to come!
Before he finished speaking, a Soul Ring lit up under Leng Yaozhu's feet...
"Enough talk, take this!!"
The Phoenix behind her flapped its wings, commanding the flames around to envelop her entire body, then it lunged towards the Ghost Emperor...
The latter stood calmly in place, showing no intention of dodging...
But just as the massive Phoenix was about to hit him, seemingly out of nowhere, a hundred-meter tall puppet emerged to block the attack with its robust body!!
What followed was the disdainful voice of the Ghost Emperor, "Such an attack doesn't even qualify to tickle me!"
And Leng Yaozhu, being an Ultimate Douluo, naturally had her pride!!
She immediately roared, "Seventh soul skill, Martial Soul True Body!"
Before the eyes, the previous Phoenix flapped its wings towards the heavens, its form expanding several times over!!
And her own attributes greatly increased as well!!
The Ghost Emperor, witnessing all of this, had no intention of stopping, "Even with the Martial Soul True Body, what of it? A weakling will always remain a weakling!"
In his eyes, Leng Yaozhu was undoubtedly just an ant that had become a slightly stronger ant!
Still easily crushable with the flick of a hand!!
Leng Yaozhu, of course, ignored his words, and the red soul ring at her feet suddenly lit up...
"Ghost Emperor, go to hell!!"
The Phoenix, covered in searing flames, let out a long cry to the heavens. It began to gather a fireball in its mouth, allowing it to grow continuously...
In the blink of an eye, the fireball had covered half the sky, illuminating everything within it...
Once it fell, everything within a hundred miles would be leveled to the ground!!
Yet, faced with an attack of such magnitude, the Ghost Emperor just coldly uttered a phrase...
"That's more like it, finally something to make me take it seriously for a moment!"
Though enduring this strike would not lead to his demise, it would likely inflict significant injuries...
Therefore, he decided to plunge his opponent into utter despair; at that point, converting her into an evil Soul Master would be much easier!!
With a cold "hmph," Leng Yaozhu swung her right hand fiercely...
The massive fireball, filled with devastating power, slowly began to fall toward the Ghost Emperor...
"Boom!!"
A red flash burst forth, and the intense sound of the explosion followed, as the power contained within it was released in an instant...
Everything visible to the naked eye turned to ash in the high temperatures...
The whole space was as if it were enveloped by hell itself...
...
After lasting a full ten seconds or so, the strange phenomena in the space finally faded away...
Leng Yaozhu gasped for breath, her gaze fixed firmly on the empty space ahead...
"Can't sense the Ghost Emperor's presence, is he dealt with??"
Even a God would not find it easy to withstand her attack with just a physical body!
However, from behind her, a voice that spelled despair emerged...
"Over?? Sky Phoenix Douluo, do you think you've underestimated Gods too much?"
Leng Yaozhu hurriedly turned to look back...
The upper body of the Ghost Emperor, smeared with flames, had appeared before her eyes...
Leng Yaozhu's heart skipped a beat, "How... how is this possible??"
Even though burns were visible on his body, such injuries were insignificant to a God!
With a mere thought from the Ghost Emperor, the flames were abruptly extinguished...
"Sky Phoenix Douluo, you should have realized the gap between us by now, so, submit willingly to become my servant,"
"Then, perhaps I might consider not erasing your spirit intelligence!!"
Leng Yaozhu seemed to have given up, revealing a tragically beautiful smile, "Ghost Emperor, indeed I am no match for you; but to make me your servant, that's impossible!!"
Gu Yue...
The path ahead may have to be walked by you alone!
Now, all I can do is ensure I don't become an evil Soul Master...
