The entire hall was silent, while Qin Beixuan and the other three were covered in cold sweat with their faces turning pale. Evidently, they felt fear from the bottom of their hearts. A Saint Grade Spiritual Array Ancestor could probably trap them in a Spiritual Array World and annihilate them with a single thought.
This was the difference between a Saint and an Immortal Heavenly Sovereign.
It's like the difference between an Emperor of a small country and an Emperor of a powerful country. Although they're both Emperors, the latter could destroy the country with a single thought.
"The Grand Elder of the Ancient Buddha Clan?"
The leaders of the other forces and the higher-ups of the Northern Spiritual Alliance looked at Qing Yanjing in puzzlement. Due to the difference in their cultivation, they naturally wouldn't come in contact with an ancient force like the Ancient Buddha Clan.
In their eyes, a supreme force with a Heavenly Sovereign overseeing it was already unreachable, not to mention the Ancient Clans that stood at the pinnacle amongst the supreme forces.
Although they were puzzled about the so-called Grand Elder of the Ancient Buddha Clan, they could vaguely sense how terrifying it was from the trembling of Qin Beixuan and the other three.
That's because even the terrifying fighting strength that Mu Chen had displayed only made the four of them feel fearful, but not so fearful.
Thus, they could tell that the deterrence that Qing Yanjing brought to them was stronger than Mu Chen.
Gulp.
Many leaders gulped down a mouthful of saliva as they looked at Qing Yanjing with revere in their eyes. At this moment, they finally understood that the most terrifying person in this hall wasn't Mu Chen, but this gentle and approachable lady that made others mistake her for an ordinary person.
Compared to Mu Chen's enraged gaze, she was a true Bodhisattva.
The higher-ups of the Northern Spiritual Alliance, who were chatting with Qing Yanjing a moment ago, wiped the cold sweat on their foreheads. Just a moment ago, they were actually chatting with a terrifying existence that they couldn't come in contact with. Thinking about it, their hearts throbbed.
"Haha, looks like my wife is more formidable than my son."
The only one who remained calm was Mu Feng. When he saw this scene, he chuckled towards Mu Chen.
Hearing her words, Mu Chen helplessly rolled his eyes.
"Father!"
When the Hundred Spirit King saw this scene, he felt as if he was struck by lightning. His face twisted as he roared, "Father, you must take revenge for me!
You can't let them go! "
He never expected that the reinforcements that he had been waiting for would not make Mu Chen's family kneel before him as he had hoped, but they even bowed before the other party. This difference had practically made the Hundred Spirit King, who had been living a smooth-sailing life, lose his rationale.
"Shut up, unfilial son!"
Qin Beixuan's face was ashen as he waved his hand and slapped the Hundred Spirit King's face, slamming the latter into the wall. Staring at the latter with a cold gaze, Qin Beixuan gnashed his teeth. "Don't you think you've caused enough trouble?!"
At this moment, he also felt lingering fear. If it wasn't for his friend discovering this matter, Qing Yanjing would be enraged. At that time, even the entire Northern Profound Sect would be annihilated under the rage of a Saint Heavenly Sovereign.
As an Immortal Heavenly Sovereign, he knew how terrifying a Saint Grade Spiritual Array Ancestor was, and he also knew the power of an Ancient Clan like the Ancient Buddha Clan.
Thinking about how his entire sect was nearly annihilated because of the Hundred Spirit King's actions, Qin Beixuan felt fear and rage in his heart.
The Hundred Spirit King's face swelled up as he looked at the enraged Qin Beixuan. The intense pain on his face finally cleared his mind and he felt a chill down his spine.
At this moment, how could he not tell that it wasn't because his father didn't want to vent his anger for him, but the enemy that he had provoked was so powerful that even his father was fearful.
The youth and woman before him were existences that they couldn't afford to offend.
At this moment, the Hundred Spirit King's backing had been destroyed, and his confidence had also disappeared. Looking at Mu Chen's cold gaze, he finally felt fear in his heart and started to tremble.
"Beixuan!
What are you doing?! "
Liu Baihua had also entered the hall and looked at the Hundred Spirit King, whose face was swollen from Qin Beixuan's slap. She couldn't help raging, since this son of hers was her flesh and blood.
"You, shut up as well!"
But when she spoke out, Qin Beixuan's cold gaze was directed over. "If you don't want my Northern Profound Sect and Hundred Flower Sect to be erased, then wake up!"
Liu Baihua felt a chill down her spine as she looked at Qing Yanjing with fear in her eyes. At this moment, she could sense the terrifying pressure emanating from Qing Yanjing's body.
Under that absolute pressure, even if she felt heartache and unwillingness, she didn't dare to speak.
When the other leaders in the hall saw this scene, they inwardly sighed. It looks like the Hundred Spirit King has fallen this time. But who could've imagined that a mere Alliance Lord of the Northern Spiritual Alliance would have such a terrifying background?
His wife was the so-called Grand Elder of the Ancient Buddha Clan, and his son was a Heavenly Sovereign that suppressed Qin Beixuan. That's practically making them collapse. That's because no matter how they looked at it, Mu Feng's strength had yet to reach the Sovereign Realm.
After suppressing his wife and son, Qin Beixuan respectfully cupped his hands towards Qing Yanjing and bitterly said, "My unfilial son brought this upon himself. I wonder how Milord intends to deal with this matter?"
Knitting her brows, Qing Yanjing wasn't interested in this matter, so she shook her head. "This matter will be decided by my son. You can ask him yourself."
Sweeping a glance at Qin Beixuan, Mu Chen calmly said, "Sect Master Qin, under your protection, the Hundred Spirit King can only act tyrannically in the Hundred Spirit Continent and bully others. But since he dares to bully my family, then you guys can only blame it on your misfortune."
With a bitter smile, Qin Beixuan nodded his head. Speaking of which, it was fair. In the past, when the Hundred Spirit King bullied others, they could only suppress him because An Ran was fine. But now that he had provoked someone that he shouldn't have provoked, he naturally had to pay the price.
"I'll leave it to the Mu Abode's Ruler to deal with it." Qin Beixuan straightforwardly replied. Since he couldn't go against the Mu Abode's Ruler, then he might as well be obedient.
"You're a smart person." Mu Chen smiled. Qin Beixuan knew when to submit, and he was truly worthy of being a Sect Master.
"From today onwards, the Hundred Spirit Continent will no longer be under the jurisdiction of your Northern Profound Sect, and the Northern Spiritual Alliance will be in charge."
When those words came out, the hall went into an uproar. The leaders of the Hundred Spirit Continent were inwardly shocked. If that's the case, wouldn't that mean that Mu Feng would be the King that they had to worship in the future?
This made some of the leaders feel unnatural. After all, the Northern Spiritual Alliance could only be considered as a mid-tier force in the Hundred Spirit Continent, but now, it's above them.
However, their unnaturalness made them shiver when Mu Chen's gaze swept over. They immediately scolded themselves for being stupid. With such a powerful wife and son, who would dare to treat the Northern Spiritual Alliance as an unremarkable force?
After a brief hesitation, Qin Beixuan gnashed his teeth and nodded his head. "Alright, my Northern Profound Sect will offer the Hundred Spirit Continent to appease the two of you."
Although losing the Hundred Spirit Continent would greatly affect the Northern Profound Sect, it was still within the range that they could bear.
"Furthermore, your son injured my family with despicable means. He should've been killed, but I'll spare his life out of consideration for you." Mu Chen said.
Just when Qin Beixuan felt relieved, Mu Chen's voice resounded once more, "You can be spared from death, but you can't escape punishment."
When he spoke, an ancient crystal pagoda soared into the sky from Mu Chen's head and hovered above the Hundred Spirit King.
Buzz!
As the crystal radiance shone down, it swiftly formed into crystal runes on the Hundred Spirit King's body. Those runes were like chains that pierced into the Hundred Spirit King's flesh.
As the crystal runes formed, the Hundred Spirit King was horrified to discover that his Spiritual Energy was swiftly disappearing. In the end, he couldn't sense any Spiritual Energy at all.
"Seal his Spiritual Energy for fifty years."
When Mu Chen's cold voice resounded, the Hundred Spirit King's face turned ashen as if he was struck by lightning.
"You!" Seeing this, Liu Baihua gritted her teeth, and her eyes were filled with hatred.
"And you!"
But at this moment, Mu Chen's cold gaze was directed over as he coldly said, "I will not let you off for insulting my family!"
Facing this shrew, Mu Chen was also enraged. It was precisely because of her that the Hundred Spirit King was so fearless, and she even humiliated his father with her words. Thus, he couldn't let such a woman off so easily.
Whoosh!
When his voice resounded, the crystal pagoda pierced through space and appeared above Liu Baihua's head with a crystallised lustre enveloping her.
Liu Baihua's face was filled with shock as she immediately circulated her Spiritual Energy to resist. But when her Spiritual Energy came in contact with the crystallised lustre, it swiftly collapsed. In just ten-odd breaths, the crystallised lustre had already left runes on her body.
At this moment, the boundless Spiritual Energy fluctuation around Liu Baihua had also swiftly withered.
With Mu Chen's current strength, he still couldn't seal the Spiritual Energy of a Heavenly Sovereign, but he could weaken it. At this moment, Liu Baihua's strength was equivalent to a Greater Earth Sovereign.
"This seal will last for twenty years, and it will disappear after twenty years."
Liu Baihua's face was pale. She was a high and mighty Heavenly Sovereign, and now that she was reduced to an Earth Sovereign, it was a huge blow to her.
The entire hall was silent. Everyone was intimidated by Mu Chen's means. With a flip of his hand, Mu Chen had sealed the Hundred Spirit King and Liu Baihua. How imposing was that?
After that, Mu Chen looked at Qin Beixuan and slowly said, "Sect Master Qin, do you have any objections to my punishment?"
Qin Beixuan wore a bitter expression as he shook his head. He knew that Mu Chen had already held back. In the Great Thousand World, the might of a Saint Heavenly Sovereign could destroy the heavens and earth. If a Saint Heavenly Sovereign was enraged, then their Northern Profound Sect and Hundred Flower Sect wouldn't be able to escape.
Now that he only managed to seal the Hundred Spirit King and Liu Baihua's spiritual energy, it was much better than destroying the sect.
"Since that's the case, then I'll let this matter go. I hope that you can conduct yourself well in the future. If anything happens to the Northern Spiritual Alliance, I will naturally pay a visit."
Mu Chen calmly said. He couldn't stay in the Hundred Spirit Continent forever. If he and Qing Yanjing left, then the Northern Spiritual Alliance wouldn't be able to stop Qin Beixuan from taking revenge.
Qin Beixuan naturally understood the meaning behind Mu Chen's words, so he bitterly smiled and nodded his head. After witnessing Mu Chen and Qing Yanjing's strength, how could he have any thoughts of taking revenge?
"Then, we'll take our leave."
Qin Beixuan waved his hand and Spiritual Energy enveloped the Hundred Spirit King and Liu Baihua before he cupped his fists towards Mu Chen and Qing Yanjing. Thereafter, he soared into the sky with the other three Heavenly Sovereigns.
As Qin Beixuan and the rest left, the terrifying pressure that shrouded the heavens and earth also dissipated.
But when everyone looked at the mess in the hall, they knew that the Hundred Spirit Continent would change in the future.
It looked like they had to prepare gifts to pay their respects to the Northern Spiritual Alliance.
