âYouâve been gone from his life for far too long to be able to determine accurately what he would or wouldnât do, Princess.â Fat Wall said sarcastically. âLook, Fifth brother and Sixth brother will kill the three of them very soon, and it would completely be because Second brother told us âkill all who bear witness to your actions.â
BOOM!! A massive eruption of energy shot out towards them as a golden pillar of energy clashed powerfully against a red dragon.
Autumn stared at the clash of energies in amazement for a moment. Both the human boyâs attack and her Fifth brotherâs attack was far stronger than she had thought possible.
âDid Second brother begin to change after he started practicing the manual he got from the Ancient Inheritence?â Autumn asked Fat Wall softly.
âDoes it matter? All that matters is that Second brother is now extremely powerful! I am not afraid to tell you that⦠He has graduated from the Emperor level!â Fat Wall said proudly.
âWhat? Thatâs impossible! The chasm between Emperor and Hegemon is extremely wide! He would need to master two different forms of Elements to the highest level and fuse them together!â Autumn cried out in shock. âAnd isnât Second brotherâs body the Pure Light Heavenly Body? How could he master a different form of Element so easily?â
âHehehe. Of course it was because of that powerful sword and manual! That manual is a wonder. It somehow allowed Second brother to master the Dark Element so quickly! In fact, Second brother even allowed us three brothers to practice the initial stages of the manual. We are now powerful users of the Dark Element in addition to our base Elements! In fact, I am even a Quadruple Element user because I originally was training in THREE different elements! HAHA!â Fat Wall couldnât help himself but boast proudly to Autumn.
âNot good. Definitely not good. How on earth did you guys manage to escape Masterâs detection?â Autumn asked with a trace of panic in her voice.
âHa! Master has been in his closed cultivation session for so long that he probably donât know many things that is happening in the mountain! Things like Second brotherâs expansion of power and influenceâ¦â Fat Wall sneered at Autumn.
âExpansion of power and influence? How could he do that? Eldest Senior Brother would never allow him to do such a thing!â Autumn said in disbelief.
âEldest Senior Brother has been really quiet for the past few months. You may not know it because youâre always out exploring the universe all by yourself, but as of last week, we have more than ten brothers and sisters openly declaring their allegiance to Second brother! Including use three brothers, we have fifteen in Second brotherâs faction already. That leaves only five disciples unaccounted for. Eldest senior brother, his three faithful cronies and you! Hahaha!â Fat Wall laughed in satisfaction.
âI see. The mountain is in far worse shape than I envisioned it to be. Second brother is so strong nowâ¦â Autumn said with a slightly quivering voice which contained a very slight trace of killing intent.
If Fat Wall wasnât feeling so satisfied and so full of himself, he would have definitely noticed it, and realized that Autumn was simply acting and leading him by the nose like a naive lamb to the slaughter!
But alas for him, he merely laughed and continued to spill much needed information regarding the situation back home for Autumn.
âStrong is an understatement! Second brotherâs grip over the mountain is as complete as the air that permeates all of the planet itself! Nothing moves without him knowing, and nothing is uttered without him hearing. The Fortune Hermit Mountain is as good as his! Hahahaha!â Fat Wall laughed happily.
âPlanning? HA! I guess itâs safe to tell you everything now, considering that you canât do anything. Let me tell you a highly confidential secret. Itâs no longer in planning mode! Second brother is probably moving against Eldest senior brother at this moment! He and his three cronies have been holed up in his damned cave for many weeks now. Heâs probably afraid of Second brotherâs growing power! But now that he has given Second brother the time he needed to consolidate his strength at the Hegemon level, Eldest Senior Brother is doomed!!
Why do you think we dare to kidnap you this way? It is because the taking over of Fortune Hermit mountain is already underway! HAHAHA! Twelfth Junior Sister, when you return home to Fortune Mountain, you will return to Second brother as the leader of the mountain!â Fat Wall declared with utmost confidence.
âI see. In that case, then I have no need to remain polite with you.â Autumn said in a calm voice that was vastly different from the emotional one she used earlier. The change was so huge and so sudden that Fat Wall immediately took notice.
âHuh?â Fat Wall managed to say before a blinding surge of light shot out from Autumn Rosenbloom.
BOOM!!
Autumnâs powerful Emperor level energy rolled off her lithe body in horrifying waves and rippled Fat Wallâs energy cocoon around her into shreds.
âYouâre an Emperor too?â Fat Wall shouted in complete shock.
âI am not just a fake Emperor like you who got boosted by some evil manual. I am a true Emperor with a perfect breakthrough!â Autumn sneered at Fat Wall and unleashed a powerful energy that surrounded Fat Wall like a cocoon, doing unto him exactly what he did to her earlier.
âPerfect breakthrough? With your Celestial Chaos Body? Doesnât that meanâ¦â
âOne million runes.â Autumn Rosenbloom said softly as her energy continued to rise higher and higher.
It rose so high that the five who were fighting a few kilometers away from her immediately stopped and looked over at her direction.
âOne-one million runes?!?!â Fat Wall gasped as he tried to break Autumnâs cocoon apart with his own Emperor level strength. âImpossible⦠But this powerâ¦â
Fat Wall suddenly stopped struggling and sighed.
