I’m Really Not A Supreme Master!

Chapter 23: Fire Country, A Change of Weather

“`

The Imperial Edict of the Fire Emperor has arrived.

Instantly, the Lihuo Sect trembled from top to bottom.

Many disciples came out and looked up at the sky.

In the sky, a Golden Armored General clad in golden armor, riding a steed exhaling flames, displayed an extraordinary presence and arrogantly looked down upon the Lihuo Sect.

"Where is the Third Princess? Come forth and receive the Edict!”

The Golden Armored General spoke coldly.

Shortly after, at the gate of the Lihuo Sect, Yu Qishui, Fire Spirit, and others appeared.

"Third Princess, the Fire Emperor orders you to return to the Imperial Capital immediately. The Emperor shall appoint you as the heir to the throne,” said the Golden Armored General.

“Receive the Edict!”

However, Fire Spirit responded with a cold tone,

“You’re just a mere general of the court, and you dare to be so arrogant. Are you looking down on me?”

The Golden Armored General furrowed his brow, but then he said,

“Third Princess, you may be noble, but I am a Hollow Void Realm cultivator!”

In this world, everything depended on one’s strength.

"Hollow Void Realm? Is that supposed to be impressive?”

Fire Spirit uttered coldly; the next moment, her figure had already vanished.

She reappeared right above the Golden Armored General.

A palm struck down!

Fierce flames raged!

"What?! Hollow Void?!”

The Golden Armored General was shocked!

He clearly felt the strength of the Hollow Void Realm from Fire Spirit’s palm.

Moreover, she was among the top Hollow Void Level powerhouses.

He hurriedly resisted, his Spiritual Power bursting forth.

But his Spiritual Power was easily dissolved under the fiery force of Fire Spirit’s palm.

The next moment, he was devoured by a Fire Snake.

"Aaah—”

The Golden Armored General turned to ash.

Fire Spirit caught the falling Imperial Edict from the sky, eyes filled with ice-cold resolve.

"Today is the day I avenge my mother,” she declared.

"It is also time to establish the first stronghold for Senior Li.”

Turning to Yu Qishui and the others, she said,

“Gentlemen, I wish to wage war on the Fire Country!”

Wage war on the Fire Country!

Yu Qishui nodded,

“It must be so!”

He leapt into the sky with a single bound, standing beside Fire Spirit.

Wei Yushan and Mu Qianning quickly followed behind.

That day, the Lihuo Sect waged war on the Fire Country!

As soon as the news broke, the world was shocked.

"What? The Lihuo Sect dares to attack the Fire Country?”

"Have they lost their minds? The Fire Emperor is a Mahayana Powerhouse of his generation, no less.”

"It is said that in just a short period, Princess Fire Spirit has advanced to the Hollow Void Realm, and let’s not forget, behind them stands someone who even killed a Demon Venerable!”

All forces within the Fire Country were watching with nervous anticipation.

The news of Fire Spirit and company conquering cities spread instantly.

Huo Yue City has fallen!

Ye Yan City annihilated!

All the way to the Imperial Capital of the Fire Country!

"This is terrible!”

In the Fire Nation Imperial Palace, an elder, who had lost an arm and looked extremely miserable, rushed in, saying,

“The Third Princess’s forces are at the gates; we cannot stop them!”

Upon his throne, the Fire Emperor’s face changed drastically!

"How is this possible…”

A woman beside him looked shocked.

She was the Empress of the Fire Country, the mother of Huo Mingxuan and Huo Xuanfei.

It was she who had caused the death of Fire Spirit’s mother years ago.

"Your Majesty, please take action and kill this wretch!”

She pleaded with the Fire Emperor.

But the Fire Emperor’s face was heavy with concern.

"Is there no word from the Dragon Profound Sect or the Cangyang Sect?”

He looked towards a nearby old eunuch.

The old eunuch’s expression was grim as he said,

“They… they dare not send troops!”

They dared not send troops!

—As soon as Fire Spirit took the first city, the Fire Emperor had already sought external aid.

He personally wrote to the Dragon Profound Sect and the Cangyang Sect, two Supreme forces.

The terms were extremely humble; he even promised that if they saved the Fire Country this time, the Fire Country would be willing to become a vassal state.

Yet, they were unwilling to lend a hand!

"Is this the might of an Immortal?”

The Fire Emperor sighed.

He almost expected this; Supreme-level forces were the strongest he could call upon, but compared to an Immortal… they were mere ants.

Who in the world didn’t know that behind Fire Spirit stood an existence that surpassed the Supreme?

"It seems that this grudge must finally be settled.”

He stood up and walked out of the great hall.

All the ministers and generals followed him.

The moment he stepped out of the great hall, the Fire Emperor saw the fierce and valiant Fire Spirit.

Clad in a long fiery red dress, she resembled a fairy of flames.

At her side, Yu Qishui, Wei Yushan, and Mu Qianning were equally valiant and formidable!

Below their feet, the nine Hollow Void Level guardians of the Fire Nation Imperial Capital lay in their own blood!

“`

No one can stand in the way!

"My child, you truly make your father proud.”

At this moment, the Fire Emperor actually revealed a faint smile and said,

“With strength like yours, I am at ease entrusting the Fire Nation to you.”

"At ease?” Fire Spirit’s response was icy,

“That was nineteen years ago. Your feigned concern is useless now!”

The Fire Emperor shook his head and said,

“Ling’er, you know that your mother has always been my true love.”

"Likewise, she deeply loved me; otherwise, why would she have died for me?”

"True love?” Fire Spirit felt disgust and said,

“That woman killed your true love, and what did you do? Don’t insult those two words!”

The Fire Emperor said,

“Ling’er, I know you bear resentment, so today, I will prove it to you.”

Suddenly, with a great grasp, the Empress’s neck was in his clutches!

"Your Majesty…”

The Empress’s face changed drastically.

"She murdered your mother all those years ago, and I’ve long wanted to depose her!”

"It was only for the sake of national stability, but now, the time has come to avenge your mother.”

The Fire Emperor spoke mercilessly and directly strangled the Empress to death with his bare hands!

He threw the Empress’s body down at Fire Spirit’s feet and, at the same time, removed his dragon robe.

"From this day forth, you are the Emperor of the Fire Nation.”

"Your father will assist you in governing this nation!”

The Fire Emperor spoke gravely.

Yet Fire Spirit only looked at him indifferently.

"There’s no need for futile struggle; today, you too must die, to accompany my mother in death!” she announced.

She took a step forward!

"Ling’er, is there truly no room for negotiation?”

"None!”

The Fire Emperor’s expression changed, and in that moment, a ruthless look flashed in his eyes as he suddenly said,

“In that case, don’t blame me!”

With a single step he took!

Below the Imperial Palace, the earth split open instantly!

Below, molten lava rolled, and magma overflowed!

"Do you know why the Fire Nation has stood to this day?”

"Because there is a giant earth fire vein here!”

"Generation after generation, the ancestors of the Fire Nation sacrificed their lives, burying their bones within it, and the fire vein has long become sentient, capable of burning even immortals!”

"Even if the person backing you were to personally come, it wouldn’t be enough!”

The Fire Emperor roared, his spiritual power surged wildly!

From the earth’s fissure, countless lava jets erupted, forming a scorching, red-hot Fire Snake that danced violently across the sky, attempting to swallow Fire Spirit and her companions!

The might was so tremendous that even Supremes might be eradicated by this magma Fire Snake.

But Fire Spirit remained utterly cold.

She raised her hand, and suddenly, a wooden palace model soared into the air, growing continuously larger in the sky!

Finally, a vast, ancient palace pressed down upon the fiery giant dragon!

"Ao hou—”

The fiery giant dragon let out a heaven-shaking roar, but when the giant palace landed, the magma was entirely collected within it!

Fire Spirit beckoned with her hand, and the palace, now the size of a palm model, returned to her hand.

The formidable giant serpent vanished as if it had never appeared.

"What kind of artifact is this?!”

The Fire Emperor was shocked.

That was an earth fire vein that could threaten immortals!

And yet, it had been contained by a palace?

How was that possible!

Unacceptable!

"It’s your turn now!”

With a wave of Fire Spirit’s hand, a painting scroll soared into the sky!

The next moment, a terrifying might enveloped the entire Fire Nation Imperial Capital.

The Fire Emperor only managed a pitiful scream before turning to ash.

That day, the Fire Nation was breached, and the Fire Emperor was slain.

The Third Princess of the Fire Nation, Fire Spirit, ascended to the throne and proclaimed it to the world.

All the sects under heaven were profoundly shocked.

The Fire Nation, with its myriad day-level and month-level forces, hurriedly went to the Imperial Capital to pay their respects in just one day!

Especially at the end, when the Fire Emperor was exterminated, and that painting scroll swept across the sky, numerous major forces felt it.

"This is a deterrence to all sides!”

"The will of the immortals is not to be defied!”

"The Fire Nation has changed rulers!”

After the Fire Nation was seized, it quickly regained stability.

After all, Fire Spirit and others had only exterminated those who were loyal to the Fire Emperor.

The rest, feeling the boundless might, submitted outright.

"Elder Sect Master, the most important thing for us now is to collect all kinds of major information for Senior Li,” said Fire Spirit from the throne, looking at Yu Qishui.

Yu Qishui smiled and replied,

“Letting the Fire Nation’s intelligence system operate in full swing should be sufficient.”

Fire Spirit nodded her head.

At the same time, many outsiders from various sects came to pay their respects.

Fire Spirit met with them one by one; after all, now that the Fire Nation had a new ruler, it was necessary to establish good relations with all parties.

It took many consecutive days to finish meeting with most of the forces.

"Taiyan Holy Land’s Hongxuan Supreme, Ziyang Holy Land’s Luoming Supreme have arrived!”

A loud announcement!

The Fire Nation Imperial Palace trembled mightily.

Two Supremes from the two great Holy Lands had come to visit!
