Chapter 379
"What? So you two old fossils can covet the flames in our bodies, but I'm not allowed to want your Fire Spirit Clan's Reincarnation Heavenly Flame?"
Western Heaven Continent, Transmission Array.
As soon as Xiao Tiance uttered these scornful words, the faces of the Fire Spirit Clan's ancestor and clan leader turned ashen with anger.
"Good, very good," the Fire Spirit Ancestor said coldly. "It has been many years since anyone dared to speak to me like this. Xiao Tiance, you certainly have courage. But have you thought about the consequences of your actions?"
The clan leader sneered, his voice filled with hostility. "You've just stepped into the Spirit Heaven Sovereign stage, and yet you act as if my Fire Spirit Clan is beneath you. Fine. Let me see if your strength is as sharp as your tongue."
Both of them unleashed their fire attributed spiritual energy, creating a searing pressure that instantly filled the area. The purity and intensity of their fire spiritual energy were unmatched, a hallmark of the Fire Spirit Clan.
However, Xiao Tiance and his group remained unfazed. Compared to the overwhelming presence of the Western Sky Battle Emperor they had faced before, these two weren't nearly as threatening.
"Tiance, what's the plan?" Xiao Xuan stepped forward, his eyes brimming with battle intent. He seemed ready to charge in as soon as Xiao Tiance gave the word.
Beside him, Gu Xun'er, Mu Ling, and Xiao Tianming also unleashed their auras, prepared for combat.
Xiao Tiance smirked. "I'll handle the old man at the early Celestial Heaven Sovereign stage. Xuan, Ling, Xun'er, you three take the Spirit Heaven Sovereign. Work with Qinghou. That should be enough, don't you think?"
"Got it." Xiao Xuan, Gu Xun'er, and Mu Ling nodded in unison, their confidence unwavering.
"What about me?" Xiao Tianming asked, feeling left out.
"Your strength isn't enough yet," Xiao Tiance said bluntly. "Against Heaven Sovereigns, you're still too far behind. Stay with Yunqiao and protect yourself."
With a wave of his hand, Xiao Tiance summoned two golden puppets. One was Qinghou, and the other was designated as Number Two.
Among the three Heavenly Puppets Xiao Tiance had crafted, the first had been left with Huaian on White Night Island. These two were his remaining trump cards.
As soon as the puppets appeared, Qinghou positioned himself alongside Xiao Xuan's group, while Number Two escorted Xiao Tianming and Yunqiao away from the battlefield.
When the Fire Spirit Ancestor and clan leader saw the puppets, their eyes lit up with greed.
"Are those… puppets?" the clan leader asked, incredulous.
The Fire Spirit Ancestor was equally stunned, his eyes gleaming with surprise. "This… If I'm not mistaken, these puppets have power comparable to peak Earth Sovereigns and upper Earth Sovereigns. How is such craftsmanship even possible?"
Clearly, their knowledge of the Great Thousand World lacked information about the Heavenly Puppets.
The Fire Spirit Ancestor's voice carried an undercurrent of excitement as he transmitted his thoughts. "These puppets are extraordinary. If we can acquire the method to craft them, the Fire Spirit Clan will rise to unprecedented heights."
The clan leader responded with equal fervor. **"Ancestor, we were already targeting their flames. If we add this puppet crafting technique to our gains, it will be a windfall.
"As for Xiao Tiance, while he is a Heaven Sovereign, the Great Thousand Palace forbids the death of Heaven Sovereigns. We don't need to kill him just capture him. The Palace won't interfere with that."**
"Agreed," the Fire Spirit Ancestor replied. "But pay attention. These individuals are exceptionally talented, especially that young woman. If we can subdue them, they could become invaluable assets to our clan."
The clan leader hesitated. "But didn't we promise them to Tong Sihai?"
The ancestor sneered. "Tong Sihai? He's just a dog we've been feeding for years. Why should we care about his claims? If he's unhappy, we can dispose of him as easily as swatting a fly."
Hearing this, the clan leader smirked and fully unleashed his fire spiritual energy. The oppressive force swept toward Xiao Tiance and his group.
"Hmph."
Xiao Tiance sneered, stomping the ground. A surge of spiritual energy erupted from him, colliding head on with the Fire Spirit Clan leader's aura.
"Boom!"
The clash of energies created a violent shockwave, scattering debris and sending gusts of wind in all directions. Several weaker spectators fainted outright.
The clan leader narrowed his eyes. **"Xiao Tiance, I must admit, your arrogance is backed by some skill. Even among the Great Thousand World's superpowers, talents like you are rare.
"I'll give you one last chance. Kneel before us and pledge your allegiance to the Fire Spirit Clan. Not only will I overlook your earlier rudeness, but I will also accept you as my personal disciple when we return to the clan "**
"Enough nonsense," Xiao Tiance interrupted coldly. "Are we going to fight or not?"
The clan leader's face twisted in rage. "You're courting death! I'll grant your wish!"
In a flash, he appeared before Xiao Tiance and threw a fiery punch, his spiritual energy blazing like molten lava. The attack was enough to shatter mountains and boil seas.
"Clang!"
Xiao Tiance raised his hand to block, the impact ringing out like a clash of steel.
The clan leader's eyes widened in shock. "What incredible physical strength! This… How can a Spirit Heaven Sovereign possess such a formidable body?"
Xiao Tiance smirked. "What's wrong? Is that all you've got? Or are you just too weak to be worth my time?"
