Unparalleled After Ten Consecutive Draws

Chu Kuangren and company finally met up with Yu Yan, one of the Eight Great Heretics.

However, upon meeting, Yu Yan struck Chu Kuangren with a blast of black flame.

The scorching force was aimed at Chu Kuangren, who was on Hei Xuan's head.

Chu Kuangren was unfazed by the ambush. He pointed his sword hand sign, and Daoist law energy gathered at the tip of his fingers.

When he attacked, the power of three thousand Daoist laws gushed forward.

The Daoist law and black flame clashed, pushing both casters away.

Yu Yan looked at Chu Kuangren with astonishment.

Hei Xuan shouted, "Yu Yan, what the hell are you doing?"

"Hei Xuan, don't worry. I will kill you and break you free!" Yu Yan said righteously.

Hei Xuan, however, shouted, "I'll break your ribs! Do you know who he is? He's the Dark Demonic Ruler's favorite! He has the Ruler Amulet! How dare you attack him!"

Yu Yan was more surprised than before. "What? He's the owner of the Ruler Amulet?"

He conserved his black flame and walked up to Chu Kuangren with a fist salute, looking apologetic.

"I'm so sorry for my manners. I was blinded and didn't know who you were. Please don't take it seriously."

Chu Kuangren smiled at the man. "You really don't know who I am?"

"I had no idea. I saw you sitting on Hei Xuan's head and thought you forced Hei Xuan to do your bidding. I got anxious, so I attacked," he explained. It was as if he got impulsive because of his friend.

"Is that so?" Chu Kuangren smiled it off.

"Cut the nonsense. Yu Yan, we've traveled a long way here. You should show some hospitality." Hei Xuan voiced his dissatisfaction.

"Yes, yes. Where are my manners? I'll tell the men to get prepared."

Soon, the arrival of the Darkness Evil Dragon spread across Black Flame City.

The cultivators from the Darkness Tribe were thrilled.

"Great! Lord Evil Dragon is back! We don't need to be afraid of the Radiant Church anymore!"

"But I heard Lord Evil Dragon was sealed for a long time and that he has less than ten percent of his original strength."

"Don't worry. Lord Yu Yan will definitely help Lord Evil Dragon recover."

Inside the Black Flame City was a palace.

Hei Xuan was feasting on the wine and food before him. Each dish contained dense spiritual qi.

They were not just dishes. There were also supplements that nourished one's body.

"It feels good!"

Hei Xuan laughed after having a satisfying feast. He was able to recover some of his strength through the meal.

"Have as much as you like. If you want more, I'll tell my men to bring more," Yu Yan laughed.

He then looked at Chu Kuangren, "I wonder, how did you meet the Ruler, Brother Chu?"

"Coincidence."

"How's the Ruler now?"

"I have no comments."

"Uh… Brother Chu, if you don't make it clear, it's hard to convince us," Yu Yan said.

"It doesn't matter. All you need to know is that I possess the Ruler Amulet now. Are you going to defy the Ruler Amulet?" Chu Kuangren said with a meaningful grin.

"I don't mean that!"

"Great."

After the feast, Yu Yan told his men to bring Chu Kuangren and Hei Xuan to their rooms.

Only Yu Yan and Yu Nie were left in the main hall.

"Father, what are you planning to do?"

"Are you certain of Chu Kuangren's power?" Yu Yan asked with a frosty look.

"He rivals that of a Grand Dao cultivator."

"It's too general. There are weak and strong Grand Dao cultivators. Judging from your information, it's not enough to determine his true strength. The Ruler Amulet is important, and I cannot allow any mistakes. Figure out a way to find out how strong Chu Kuangren really is."

Yu Yan was a meticulous man. Even though Chu Kuangren was just an Embodier, he dared not be careless.

After all, the young man possessed the Ruler Amulet and was anything but simple or weak.

"My Lord, Jiu Yin is here."

A dark figure appeared behind Yu Yan and reported.

"Jiu Yin? What's he doing here? Is he alone?" Yu Yan asked with a raised brow.

"He brought someone with him. A young man that looks like him."

"I see. Let them in."

A while later, a black-haired middle-aged man brought a young man into the hall.

The young man had long red hair and emanated a scorching aura like he was a walking sun.

"Jiu Yin, how long has it been?" Yu Yan smiled and welcomed the man named Jiu Yin enthusiastically.

The two of them chatted.

When Yu Nie saw the guests, he released his aura, and it felt somewhat competitive.

"Not bad, but too bad it's not enough," said the red-haired young man.

He grunted and increased his aura until it easily overpowered Yu Nie.

"Chi Yun, manners," Jiu Yin bellowed.

The red-haired young man grunted and conserved his aura.

Yu Nie wanted a fight, but Yu Yan held him back.

Yu Yan looked at the young man and said, "I see a young Prodigy here. Jiu Yin, who might this be?"

"He's my son, but he doesn't cultivate my Nine Yin Dao. He cultivates the Flame Great Dao instead. I heard the Black Flame City has something called the Underground Fire Eye, which contains a large amount of Primordial Flame. That's why I've brought him here, and I'd like to ask you for a favor."

"Jiu Yin, we've known each other for so many years. Of course, I can do you the favor."

"I thank you in advance."

"It's nothing. However, it takes time to open the Underground Flame Eye. I'll tell my men to prepare rooms for you."

"Thank you."

Yu Yan then told his men to bring Jiu Yin and Chi Yun to their rooms.

Yu Nie grunted coldly. "If we fight, I might not lose to Chi Yun."

"Don't be so competitive. Yu Nie, control your temper."

"Yes, Father."

Despite his unwillingness, Yu Nie dared not defy his father.

Yu Yan glanced at the boy and said, "Yu Nie, I want you to approach Chi Yun in the next few days, and…"

He continued the sentence through telepathy.

Yu Nie's eyes gleamed. "I understand."

Meanwhile, Chu Kuangren and Hei Xuan were resting in the side palace.

Suddenly, they sensed two auras approaching.

"This is Jiu Yin's aura," Hei Xuan said with puckered lips.

Before his voice subsided, two figures entered the side palace's hall.

It was Jiu Yin and Chi Yun.

"Hey, Darkness Evil Dragon. You're here as well."

"It's none of your damn business where the hell I am," Hei Xuan argued. He was not exactly friendly toward Jiu Yin.

"Hmph. I'll respect Yu Yan as the host for today and spare your little dragon skin."

Jiu Yin grunted as he brought Chi Yun into the palace.

Before they left, Chi Yun glanced at Chu Kuangren.

"Your aura is different. You're a much more worthy opponent compared to Yu Nie!"

Chu Kuangren did not say a word.

After the father and son duo left, Chu Kuangren asked Hei Xuan, "You have beef with them?"

"Not exactly. We've fought in the past. Jiu Yin is also labeled by the Radiant Church as one of the Eight Great Heretics."

Chu Kuangren was surprised.

It seemed like the Black Flame City currently had three out of the Eight Great Heretics.
