“Wha-what happened?”
“I’m also not sure…”
Everyone’s gazes slowly turned toward Mu Ru Yue. They were deeply shocked when they looked at her…
White glow expanded from the pill furnace in front of Mu Ru Yue, seeming to illuminate the entire sky…
It formed a pillar of light toward the sky under the azure sky.
Following that, everyone seemed to be locked in place. They looked in terror at the white robes under the gale while they were unable to move a muscle.
“The birth of a Divine Stage pill! Every martial practitioner under the God Realm will be ants before it!”
The city owner’s complexion turned gravely pale. Dread finally appeared in his eyes.
‘There was a legend passed down from the ancient time that every martial practitioner under the God Realm will be ants before the alchemist that refined a Divine Stage pill…
‘The glow from the Divine Stage pill is enough to render everyone to be unable to move. Even though it was only for a really short period of time, several things could already happen during that time frame…
‘This little girl really… refined a Divine Stage pill?’
The city owner nearly lost his sanity. He just couldn’t believe that fact. However, some things weren’t up to him to believe or not…
The city owner’s heart was gradually devoured by dread as he watched the young girl under the sunlight walking toward him, making his body tremble slightly.
“No!”
A heart-wrenching shriek filled the entire sky, his voice brimmed with terror.
But it was already too late…
‘My foolishness had made me lose my life!
‘If I wasn’t too confident in myself at the start thinking that Mu Ru Yue wouldn’t be able to harm me, I wouldn’t be as foolish as to not stop her…
‘Now, it is too late for regrets.’
Pfft!
Blood instantly spurt out from his neck after a red glow soared through the air. His body stiffened. Following that, he gradually fell toward the ground…
Bang!
His body crashed heavily on the ground, dying the entire ground before him red. It was like charming roses blooming before everyone’s eyes…
Dead?
Did Lord city owner that was usually undefeatable die so easily?
The crowd’s body shuddered as they stared in astonishment at Mu Ru Yue’s face. When the white robes turned around, everyone looked at each other before they harmoniously knelt to the ground.
“Greetings to the new Lord city owner!”
The Purgatory City’s city owner was usually chosen by elimination. Anyone that could kill the existing city owner would become the next new leader…
Previously, the late city owner had become the city owner by killing the previous city owner.
“I’m not your city owner.” Mu Ru Yue smiled a little before she pointed at Lu Yang that was following closely behind her and said, “The Purgatory City will be governed by him.”
Lu Yang still hadn’t snapped out from his shock as he looked dazedly at Mu Ru Yue.
‘I thought she was a disciple of Grandmaster Wu Yu at the start.
‘How would have thought that this girl that I previously treated as insignificant is actually a Divine Stage alchemist?
‘My heavens, can this world dare to be crazier?’
The girl’s voice brushed past Lu Yang’s ears when he was still in deep shock, making him momentarily come back to his senses. He respectfully said, “Master, don’t worry. I will help you govern this Purgatory City well, constantly looking forward to Master’s return.”
Mu Ru Yue nodded slightly.
‘Lu Yang has already been refined as my puppet so he won’t be able to betray me all his life and eternity. Hence, I dare to place that much trust in him.’
“Mhm?”
Suddenly, Mu Ru Yue cast her gaze to the trembling voice within the crowd. With a sneer, she said, “Remember to wipe out all members of the previous city owner’s descendants!”
