Chapter 192: Chapter 194: Punching a Million in the Demon World, Kicking the Immortal Clan Through Eternity

Lao Hu took the Supreme Treasure Pill that Mu Can tossed over, carefully examining it in his hands, almost drooling. This was even before he knew the true value of the elixir, which could make a martial artist of Martial Venerate Level spend their entire fortune. God knows if he could still smile so happily if he knew.

"Brother Can, you should keep this one for yourself." Mu Yuhang, who had been following Xuanyuan Mingkong for a while, could also recognize the extraordinary nature of this elixir to some extent. Not to mention anything else, the dragon-shaped phantom hovering over the elixir itself was enough to shock him.

"It’s okay, I can refine more. Don’t worry." Mu Can looked over the three people again carefully. They were now his best friends in the Immortal Ancient Academy. Seeing them again, Mu Can felt extremely happy.

"Let’s go, I’ll take you to get revenge." A cold look flashed in Mu Can’s eyes. Donghuang had dared to strike at his friends while he was away; he must take this revenge.

"Forget it, Brother Can, Donghuang is now almost at the Martial Saint strength." Hearing what Mu Can said, Lao Hu spoke up to deter him. Although Lao Hu couldn’t ascertain Mu Can’s current strength, he believed that even if Mu Can had made great progress, he couldn’t surpass Donghuang.

"Almost Martial Saint? So what if he is a Martial Saint?" Mu Can only felt a dull pain in his heart. It seemed during his absence, his friends must have suffered Donghuang’s oppression. The fact that just an ’almost Martial Saint’ could intimidate them was not a good thing for their cultivation hearts.

"Alright then, lead the way." Seeing Lao Hu wanted to say more, Mu Can glared at him fiercely.

Lao Hu was startled by Mu Can’s glare and did not dare to speak any further, taking the lead.

Bing’er slowly tucked the elixir close to her body and leisurely followed behind. Seeing this elixir made her full of confidence in Mu Can. Even if Donghuang was almost a Martial Saint, just with Mu Can’s Alchemy Technique alone, it would be enough to find a true Martial Saint to help him. What Bing’er didn’t know was that at that moment, a sword-controlling elder was closely guarding Mu Can from above their heads, and that was the Sword Venerate, who was indeed of Immortal Venerable Level strength.

"Brother Can, are we really going? Donghuang sacrificed most of his Empire’s territory to increase his power to Martial Saint’s." Although Lao Hu was compelled by Mu Can’s intimidation, he still couldn’t stop talking as he led the way to the arena.

"Seriously, Brother Can, I’m not afraid to die. I just think that if we go unprepared like this, it would be easy for them to target us," Lao Hu said, trying to explain.

Lao Hu wasn’t one to fear death, and Mu Can believed this, but even so, he wouldn’t agree with Lao Hu’s opinion.

Previously, he had thought about contributing to the Mortal World upon his return, not prioritizing his grudge against Donghuang. For the sake of the country’s life and death, now that the entire Mortal World was in crisis, what does his personal grudge matter? However, what he didn’t expect was that Donghuang was still targeting him and his friends to this day. Since that was the case, no matter if Donghuang was an almost Martial Saint, or even a Martial Saint Level existence, he had also injured such a person before.

"Heh, Fatty Hu, are you feeling itchy again?" Mu Can finally got irritated by Lao Hu’s incessant chatter.

His eyes slightly narrowed as he watched Lao Hu, not sure if the sweat was from the excitement of seeing Mu Can, or from the fear of the impending challenge against Donghuang. A sharp look flashed in his eyes.

"Brother Can, since you said so, I’ll leave my 200 pounds here today. Just hide well later, and you’ll see what kind of person I, Lao Hu, really am." Hearing Mu Can’s words, Lao Hu’s eyes instantly filled with mist, heart full of grievance.

"Sister Bing’er, don’t blame Lao Hu; he means well." Bing’er spoke up, defending him. The fact that Bing’er spoke on his behalf showed that Lao Hu was usually a man of loyalty.

Mu Can nodded. He couldn’t forget the scene when Xuanyuan Mingkong had brought Lao Hu and Bing’er to rescue him when he was in danger in the Mu Family nor could he forget when a Martial Venerate Level expert attacked him in the Mu Family, and Lao Hu fearlessly put his life on the line.

Mu Can gently patted Lao Hu on the shoulder.

"Trust me, when have I ever let you down? Just an almost Martial Saint, even if it’s a Martial Saint, today a settlement must be made," Mu Can said slowly, his voice full of strong confidence.

Lao Hu wiped away the tears on his face, looked up at Mu Can, then nodded firmly.

The Demon World invades, the Immortal World descends, eight Hidden Families emerge, and many forbidden lands within the Mortal World send forth their inheritors. The secluded experts of the Immortal World exit their seclusion and gather at the Immortal Ancient Academy, which has now become the focus of the Mortal World.

...

"Disciple, you will make a trip down the mountain for your master. I owe the former dean of the Immortal Ancient Academy a favor, and now that the Mortal World is in trouble, we of Wuji Sect must lend a hand, both in sentiment and reason."

In the remote, frigid lands, atop desolate snowy mountains, there exists a Sect, built within a valley. For some reason, despite the howling cold winds and snowy landscape outside, the valley blooms with birds chirping and flowers blossoming, displaying a warm and sunny scene.

"Yes, Master." A young man gently bids farewell to his master and descends the mountain atop a giant crane.

...

"Master, why have you left your seclusion?"

At a volcano crater filled with lava, an elder emerges from within the magma, and although he’s just emerged, not a single hair on his body is singed. The elder slowly opens his eyes, emitting a burst of fiery light that then gradually fades.

The elder looks at his disciples, who are dressed in red, surrounding the volcano’s edge, and slowly says, "The Mortal World is in chaos; I am going to the Immortal Ancient Academy. There lies the seal of the most terrifying being in the Mortal World. If the seal is broken, the Mortal World will be utterly destroyed."

With that, a flash of fire erupts around the elder, his entire being igniting like a flame, and he dissipates on the spot.

"We bid Master farewell." The surrounding disciples bow respectfully, and the leader among them, manifesting a pair of Flame Wings, is none other than a true Martial Saint.

And the elder who just vanished is the master of this Martial Saint.

The same scene unfolds in every corner of the Mortal World, as those strong enough to have been involved in that affair awaken and set forth on their journey to the Immortal Ancient Academy.

...

"It’s right there." Old Hu points to a vast arena in the distance.

Surprisingly, there’s a couplet hanging on the arena.

"Throw punches to rout a million from the Demon World, kick to shake the Immortal Clans for eternity."

"Ridiculous, do these Hidden Families really see themselves as the main dish?" Mu Can acts boldly, unleashing a massive red Fire Dragon that roars past.

Bang!

To the astonishment of the onlookers, it fiercely collides with the couplet.

Boom!

With a loud noise, the couplet is completely incinerated.
