Tens of thousands of miles away from Sky Dragon City, there was a majestic mountain range that was vast and boundless.
The mountain stream was filled with lush vegetation and fierce beasts.
Many giant peaks towered into the sky.
But the most eye-catching thing was the river.
Within the mountain range, there were countless rivers.
Looking down from above, the crisscrossing rivers that extended in all directions looked like a spider web.
And at the center of it all, there was a huge city that stood tall and majestic.
Above the city gate, there were three bold and vigorous words.
— — Star River City!
Star River City was named after these rivers.
On the streets of the city, there was an endless stream of people and carriages.
The shops on both sides were filled with a dazzling array of treasures.
The sound of people's laughter, discussions, and bargaining intertwined together to create a peaceful atmosphere.
And at the center of the city was the City Lord's Mansion.
The City Lord's Mansion occupied a large area, almost one-fifth of the entire Star River City. There were many experts and the security was extremely tight.
Shua!
Suddenly.
A woman with a graceful figure actually ignored the powerhouses of the City Lord's Mansion and directly descended in the air above a grand and magnificent hall.
This was the Star River City Lord's palace.
"Who is it?"
The guards around the palace immediately sensed the woman's aura and immediately looked up at her and shouted.
"Star River City Lord, come out."
The woman was wearing a mask and her eyes were as cold as ice. She shouted with a ruthless tone.
"Mask?"
"She seems to be Jiang Haotian's younger brother, Jiang Fire Lotus?"
The guards were bewildered.
Shua!
A muscular man rushed out of the palace and looked up at the woman. His eyes were filled with murderous intent.
This person was the City Lord of Star River City!
He was eight feet tall and had bulging muscles all over his body. He was like a small giant and was filled with an explosive aura.
"Did Jiang Haotian ask you to come and apologize?"
The City Lord of Star River City said gloomily.
"No."
"My brother doesn't know, so I came to find you."
The woman said.
That's right!
She was Fire Lotus!
The City Lord of Star River City said, "So, you want to help Jiang Haotian apologize?"
"Apologize …"
Fire Lotus muttered.
"Let me tell you, a debt of blood must be paid in blood. This matter will not end so easily."
"Since you've delivered yourself to me, I'll kill you first and collect some interest!"
The Star River City's City Lord bellowed as a terrifying aura surged out of him, pouncing towards the Fire Lotus.
"Perfect Divine Lord …"
Fire Lotus's expression remained unchanged as she looked at the Star River City Lord.
"What?"
"You can actually see through my cultivation?"
The Star River City Lord was shocked.
"Your little bit of cultivation isn't even worthy of my attention."
"Furthermore, I have not come here with the intention of apologizing to you. Rather, I wish to obtain an answer from you."
Fire Lotus said calmly.
Celestial River City's eyebrows furrowed. How could he be so calm? "What answer?"
Fire Lotus said, "Nie Yun's death ends here. You're not allowed to cause trouble for my brother. If you agree, then nod your head. If not …"
Hearing this, the Star River City's City Lord did not wait for Fire Lotus to finish her words before he roared, "What if I don't agree?"
"If you don't agree …"
Fire Lotus muttered as killing intent flashed across her eyes, "Then you can reunite with Nie Yun in the underworld."
"How dare you!"
"A mere Wargod dares to speak such arrogant words!"
"Let me tell you, a life for a life is a right and proper thing to do!"
"Jiang Haotian killed my son, so he must pay for it with his life!"
"Little girl, you've got guts. You dared to barge into my City Lord's Mansion alone."
"Fine, I won't kill you."
"However, don't even think about leaving the City Lord's Mansion. Be my woman from now on, bear my children and forgive Jiang Haotian for his wrongdoings."
The City Governor of Milky Way City licked his lips as he looked at the Fiery Lotus with a lewd look on his face.
The surrounding guards could not help but burst into laughter when they heard this.
Fire Lotus did not get angry. Instead, there was a hint of a smile in her eyes.
"What's going on?"
"She's not afraid at all?"
The guards were suspicious.
"What a bunch of ignorant idiots."
"In the north region, no one has ever dared to be disrespectful to me, let alone say such words."
"Very good."
Fire Lotus nodded.
"Stop being so pretentious!"
The Star River City's City Lord sneered.
What could a mere low-level Martial Immortal possibly do?
"My brother is very busy and has no time to deal with small fries like you. Let me do it for him!"
"None of you will live."
As soon as Huo Lian finished speaking, the rusty axe appeared.
Boom!
A destructive aura immediately gushed out from the axe.
"Hmm?"
The Star River City's City Lord looked at the axe in shock and a chill that could not be dispersed emerged in his heart.
What was going on?
One must know.
He was a Perfect Monarch God. Even if the axe was a legendary artifact, with this woman's cultivation, it was impossible for her to pose a threat to him.
But why was there a sense of fear in his heart now?
"Wither!"
Fire Lotus said calmly.
Clang!!
The rust on the axe fell off piece by piece, emitting a multicolored divine light.
At this moment, the rust was like flower petals, pleasing to the eye.
At the same time, it carried an unparalleled sharpness!
Whoosh!!
With a wave of Fire Lotus's hand, the rust instantly turned into streams of light and pierced through the sky.
"Die!"
The Star River City's City Lord roared and attacked without hesitation. His divine power covered the sky and pounced on the rust.
However, the rust easily penetrated the divine power. One of the pieces of rust, which was only the size of a fingernail, disappeared between the Star River City's City Lord's eyebrows with a whoosh.
Fresh blood blossomed like a beautiful rose.
"How is this possible …"
The Star River City's City Lord's eyes widened in anger. Then, he fell to the ground.
"City Lord!"
The group of guards' expressions changed. They hurriedly ran over and gasped. The City Lord had actually died!
"Oh my god!"
"What kind of artifact is that axe of hers?"
"It's just a piece of rust, but it killed a perfected Divine Lord in an instant!"
The guards fell to the ground in despair. They didn't even have the strength to move.
"Whoosh!!!"
"Ah!!!"
Countless pieces of rust cut through the void.
The guards fell one after another. Their foreheads were all pierced. Their divine souls were annihilated, and their blood dyed the ground red.
In less than three breaths.
There was no longer a living person here.
However, Fire Lotus seemed to have done something very normal. She glanced at the corpses indifferently and opened an altar.
As for the rust, it quickly flew back and landed on the axe.
"Where do you think you're going?"
Suddenly.
An old, angry roar resounded.
An old man with white hair rushed over murderously. The aura he emitted was even stronger than the Star River City's City Lord!
Fire Lotus turned to look. She didn't speak and her expression was still cold.
"What did my son do?"
"Why did you kill him?"
The white-haired old man landed in front of Fire Lotus. He looked at the Star River City Lord's corpse and said angrily.
"Nie Mingshan, perfected Divine Lord."
Fire Lotus said indifferently.
"You know me?"
The white-haired old man was surprised.
"In the North Region, I know anyone with a bit of strength and status."
"And you were once a deacon elder of Nine Heaven Palace. However, because of favoritism, you were expelled from Nine Heaven Palace. At that time, you were only a Great Success Divine Lord."
Fire Lotus said.
"This …"
The white-haired old man looked at Fire Lotus with a dazed expression.
Nine Heaven Palace had always cared about their reputation. Therefore, this kind of thing wouldn't be announced to the public.
In other words.
The truth of him leaving Nine Heaven Palace was only known to the upper echelons of Nine Heaven Palace. The disciples of Nine Heaven Palace, including the City Lord Manor, had always thought that he went into seclusion.
But this woman in front of him not only knew about this, she even knew his cultivation when he was expelled from Nine Heaven Palace.
Who exactly was she?
Fire Lotus said, "You are quite famous in the North Region. But why are your descendants so weak?"
"What do you mean?"
Nie Mingshan frowned.
"Your grandson, Nie Yun, for a few Soul Stones, colluded with others to kill the innocent during the test."
"And your son is also unreasonable. Nie Yun asked for it, but you still want to avenge him."
"So this is the descendant you taught?"
Fire Lotus said indifferently.
"I …"
Nie Mingshan's face turned green and red.
"Actually, I know that you are trying to curry favor with Feng Yuan. But you used the wrong method and chose the wrong target."
"My brother, Jiang Haotian, is not someone you can mess with!"
After saying that, Fire Lotus stepped onto the altar.
"Did I give you permission to leave?"
Nie Mingshan was enraged. His godly power roared as he attacked.
Clang!
Fire Lotus raised her eyebrows. The rust on the axe fell off and formed a colorful barrier that protected her in the center.
With a loud bang, Divine Power surged and the altar shattered.
But Fire Lotus was protected by the rust and wasn't hurt at all.
"You're courting death!"
The rust scattered, revealing Fire Lotus's cold eyes. As Fire Lotus waved her hand, the rust rushed toward Nie Mingshan like butterflies.
"Boom!"
Nie Mingshan's body shook and a set of armor appeared. It was a peak-level Divine Armor!
However, before the rust, the armor was like tofu, unable to withstand a single blow. In merely an instant, countless bloody holes appeared on Nie Mingshan's body. His body was like a sieve that was penetrated from the front to the back, and blood was flowing out nonstop.
"So strong …"
"Who … are you …"
Nie Mingshan stared at Fire Lotus in disbelief and muttered to himself before falling down.
"Who am I?"
Fire Lotus stared at Nie Mingshan's body and suddenly smiled. "Of course I'm Jiang Fire Lotus, Jiang Haotian's sister …"
After saying that, she scanned the entire City Lord's Mansion.
"When cutting weeds, you have to dig up the roots …"
Following his words, the countless pieces of rust scattered in all directions like a swarm of locusts.
Palaces collapsed one after another, and lives were plundered one after another.
Rumbles and screams were endless and resounded through the sky!
In less than ten breaths.
The entire City Lord's Mansion was razed to the ground. No one was left alive.
When the rust returned, Fire Lotus put away the axe, opened the altar, and left without looking back.
