Chapter 6169 Jin Minghan
When Long Chen arrived, he saw countless experts gathered outside the barrier.
Feng You’s pupils shrank in shock. There were easily millions of demon race experts, with the Heavenly Demon Golden Monkey race leading them.
Their leader was an elder of the Heavenly Demon Golden Monkey race. Harsh golden light radiated from his body, and just looking at him triggered instinctual fear in people’s hearts.
Although he hadn’t emitted his Sovereign flame, his natural Sovereign might was many times stronger than that of the previous fourth Heavenstage Sovereign Lord.
“A late-stage Sovereign Lord?!” exclaimed Feng You.
“No. He is in the full circle of the sixth Heavenstage, just half a step from the late stage,” corrected Long Chen.
“Heavens… and there are so many more like him! Are they taking our mixed beast race too seriously?” Feng You smiled bitterly.
Clearly, a single Sovereign Source wasn’t enough to justify this kind of force. The Heavenly Demon Golden Monkey race was here to reclaim their face. Judging by this lineup, they wouldn’t be satisfied even if the Sovereign Source was handed over. Their true aim was to annihilate the mixed beast race and use them as a warning to others.
Long Chen scanned their formation. They had nine sixth-Heavenstage Sovereign Lords, though only the elder from the Heavenly Demon Golden Monkey race had reached the full circle. Over thirty were fifth Heavenstage, more than a hundred were fourth Heavenstage, and there were over a thousand at the third Heavenstage. It was a fearsome lineup.
The Heavenly Demon Golden Monkey race always had wild ambitions, wanting to unify the whole demon race under their banner.
They led an alliance made up of many subordinate factions. As long as they gave the order, countless demon experts would respond without hesitation.
Still, for them to have assembled such a massive force in such a short time surprised even Long Chen. It was a clear testament to just how deep the Heavenly Demon Golden Monkey race’s foundations truly ran.
However, Long Chen didn’t see anyone from the Jiang clan in their ranks, which made him smile. It seemed that the higher-ups of the Jiang clan at least had a brain.
After all, killing a fourth Heavenstage Sovereign Lord of the Jiang clan was a blatant slap to their face. In theory, they shouldn’t have let such a thing go unpunished.
But that elder had brought it on himself. Long Chen had already spared Jiang Zihao, yet the elder still insisted on attacking him—an act of utter stupidity.
In the end, he even sided with the Heavenly Demon Golden Monkey race to try and kill Long Chen. At that point, not even Feng Fei and Jiang Yue’e could save him.
There was no way the Jiang clan was unaware of such a major event. The Heavenly Demon Golden Monkey race had undoubtedly invited them. So, their absence meant a lot of things.
At the front of the demon race’s ranks stood a Human Emperor. He wiped blood from his mouth, his cold gaze locked onto Cui Hao.
He was a divine sprout with sixty-seven Sovereign flames. He had attempted to breach the barrier, only to be knocked back by Cui Hao.
He was injured in that exchange. On the other hand, Cui Hao still held back.
Cui Hao now stood in front of the barrier, cupping his fists toward the demon race experts. He looked neither arrogant nor submissive.
“The Four Cardinal Alliance? You have no right to speak of face,” sneered the leader of the Heavenly Demon Golden Monkey race. “I know your alliance has been making waves recently, but a pack of stray dogs is just that—a pack of mutts! Did you really think invoking the name of your little alliance would intimidate the great Heavenly Demon Golden Monkey race?”
Cui Hao didn’t get angry at this mockery. With a smile on his face, he replied, “The Four Cardinal Alliance has changed. After countless years of silent growth, perhaps now is the time to bare our fangs.”
“Then the Heavenly Demon Golden Monkey race will rip those fangs out!” the monkey leader snapped. “Jin Minghan, teach this arrogant brat how tall the heavens are!”
A short figure stepped forward, barely five feet tall. He looked almost dwarflike, but the moment he appeared, Cui Hao’s pupils narrowed. The golden pupils staring back at him said it all—this man bore the Heavenly Demon Golden Monkey race’s emperor bloodline.
Jin Minghan eyed Cui Hao and shook his head. “I didn’t expect a rat’s nest to produce a hundred-flame divine sprout. But rats are still rats.”
Cui Hao replied calmly, “All life may be as insignificant as ants, but even ants strive to grow. Who’s to say one can’t become a dragon? Dreams matter because what if one day they come true?”
With a dark expression, Jin Minghan declared, “Alright, then I’ll use my hands to shatter this impossible dream of yours!”
Golden light erupted beneath Jin Minghan’s feet as over a hundred Sovereign flames swirled around him. Like a golden meteor, he shot toward Cui Hao.
Jin Minghan’s aura erupted to its peak instantaneously, shocking everyone. That level of explosive release would tear most bodies apart. This showed that Jin Minghan’s physical body was absolutely terrifying.
In response, Cui Hao summoned his Sovereign flames slower than Jing Minghan. After all, not everyone possessed such a monstrous physical body.
“Monkey King Fist!”
Jing Minghan unleashed a punch. Although he was small, the blow shook the heavens—it felt like the world itself would crumble beneath its power.
“What terrifying power!” Feng You cried out. As a fellow divine sprout, she could sense the incredibly destructive power within this attack.
Cui Hao waved his hand, summoning a shield. As his Sovereign flames blazed, runes danced across his fist, and he countered with his own punch.
BANG!
Jin Minghan’s punch shattered the shield and collided with Cui Hao’s fist.
A massive shockwave exploded out. Cui Hao staggered back six steps, each one sending ripples through the void.
But on the sixth step, the void beneath his feet rebounded like a spring. He launched forward and struck with a palm.
Jin Minghan responded with another punch—only to stumble.
Cui Hao’s palm had been a feint. As a result, Jin Minghan’s full-force blow landed on nothing but air, and it threw him off balance.
“Brat, you’re tricky!” Jin Minghan shouted, furiously slamming the void.
He then leaped into the air and unleashed a kick at Cui Hao’s ribs. In response, Cui Hao twisted slightly, allowing the kick to fly by him.
“His legs are too short,” Long Chen muttered with a shake of his head.
It was an evil comment. While Long Chen hadn’t spoken loudly, every expert nearby could hear it clearly.
As a result, Jin Minghan’s face turned red with rage. His stature was his greatest sore point.
“Die!”
Jin Minghan roared and raised his hands. Golden light surged and runes lit up across his body.
But at that moment, a hand grabbed the back of his neck. Another Sovereign qi surged and instantly sealed his runes.
“You’ve lost!”
Cui Hao’s cold voice rang out.
Everyone was stunned. Just as they were expecting a huge battle to erupt, things ended just like this?
The Heavenly Demon Golden Monkey race’s experts were livid. Killing intent burned in their eyes.
