Chapter 121 Peace
“You? You are Fu Chen?” When Fire Lion Prince saw his face, he was startled as he remembered him.
“Oh! You know me?” Fu Chen was surprised. He had seen Fire Lion Pince before but never had any interaction. At that time, Fire Lion Prince seems to be standing at the peak of all younger generations.
Despite his young age, he was a Golden Core Realm monster. With his bloodline and control over his fire, he was strong as well.
“Why are you helping me?” Fire Lion Prince growled at him but didn’t make any move. He saw Chu Yan and Wu Kong engaging in battle with the other devils.
Fu Chen swung his sword and pushed back those devils. The blooming sakura turned into a whirlwind and slashed their bodies.
Fu Chen turned around and thought.
“Hmm… I saw a kitty in a helpless situation and decided to step in. Is that good enough reason for you?”
“You…” Fire Lion Prince was agitated by his taunting but he didn’t make any move. He was confident, not arrogant. He knew the difference between his strength and Fu Chen’s strength, especially in his current situation.
[Blazing Roar]
Chu Yan opened his mouth and a massive amount of flames burst out of his mouth. It moved toward the devils and passed through them while burning them into charcoal.
[Fiery Blazing Kick]
Wu Kong turned his foot into a blazing flame as he jumped in the middle of the horde. His foot released a powerful explosion, consuming those devils inside it.
In two attacks, the devils on right and left were dead. Only five devils at the front remained. Fu Chen sprinted his Dragon Steps and unsheathed his sword.
A massive killing intent condensed at the tip of the sword as he stabbed forward.
[White Tiger Slaughtering Sword Art]
[Death Blow]
Splash!
With a single touch of his sword, the body of the devil exploded into a meat paste. Fu Chen stabbed three more times and killed other devils. But one of them still remained.
He didn’t kill this devil. After putting his sword back into his sheath, he walked toward the devil. The devil freaked out and tried to run but an intense Killing Intent pressed him to the ground.
He couldn’t even move an inch. Fu Chen walked in front of him and crouched down.
He caught that devil’s head and lifted it.
“Don’t be afraid, I won’t kill you. I want you to go and send the message to your boss. Tell him that messing with me will be his greatest mistake. I am going for a ride now. After I return, I am going to hunt him down.”
Fu Chen lifted him and threw him away.
“Now, leave!”
Fu Chen took back his Killing Intent and walked toward the Fire Lion Prince.
“So, how many of you are alive?” Fu Chen asked.
Fire Lion Prince looked into his eyes and spoke.
“Most of the Nascent Soul and Law Condensation Realm monsters are alive. But except for them, only a few among Golden Core Realm are alive. As for below, I don’t know about their fate.”
“Hmm….. That’s quite bad. So, what are you guys planning to do? Are you going to leave this place and join the Chaos Star Kingdom?” Fu Chen asked.
“No! We will fight till death. This is our land. Nobody can drive us away.” Fire Lion Prince showed blazing determination as he spoke.
“That’s all good but I don’t think it is possible. Unless you force devils to leave, it would be impossible. Those devils are not from the Divine Star Kingdom. Not only they are strong, but they also possess incredible ruthlessness.”
“Why don’t you just ask for humans to help you? After all, those devils will soon fight them as well.” Fu Chen suggested.
“No!” The Fire Lion Prince instantly rejected and continued “Even if we die, we won’t beg for humans to help us.”
Hearing his words, Fu Chen silently clenched his fist and muttered.
“Even in death, you refuse to cooperate and live in peace.”
His voice was very low that the Fire Lion Prince couldn’t hear it. But, Wu Kong and Chu Yan were able to hear it. They understood the meaning behind those words as well.
They sighed.
It was truly the case. Even though they were constantly being pursued and killed by devils, the monsters and humans never thought of helping each other.
Fu Chen loosened his fist and smiled.
“Well, then I wish you good luck.”
Fu Chen tilted his head and signaled them to leave. Just when they were leaving, suddenly, a massive pressure fell upon them.
“Where do you think you are going?”
A strong roar shook the earth and blasted the trees. A fire lion with three tails appeared next to the Fire Lion Prince. But, this lion was much bigger than the prince.
“Dad” Prince Lion looked at his father with surprise. ƒ𝘳ee𝔀e𝚋n૦𝐯el.c𝗼𝓂
Yes, the monster that arrived was none other than Heavenly Lion King, the ruler of the Fire King Region.
“The entire world is seeking your position and here you are walking carelessly. It seems like you forgot what kind of enemies did you make.” Heavenly Lion King spoke.
“Is that so? I thought I wasn’t your enemy at least.” Fu Chen turned around with a smile and spoke.
“But your head has a huge reward.” Heavenly Lion King smirked as he replied.
“So, is this how you repay us for saving your son?” Fu Chen still kept his smile and asked.
Heavenly Lion King narrowed his eyes and looked at him for a moment. Suddenly, the pressure that he released disappeared.
“There is no need to play dumb. Without blocking the space around us, I can’t keep you here. But, I am curious about one thing. Why are you making so many enemies? You could’ve avoided a lot of them.”
Hearing his question, Fu Chen passed for a moment and spoke.
“When I was small, I met a wolf family. I was a human and I wasn’t supposed to go near them as a kid but they didn’t kill me. Instead, they let me play with their kids.”
“I was very happy. I loved playing with them and slowly, I also learned to understand them. But one day, some humans used the mother wolf’s pregnancy’s weakness to kill them.”
“After that, only the father wolf was alive but he had lost his eyesight. Even though I was a human, even though humans had killed his family, he never even growled at me.”
“I used to go and meet him quite a lot.”
Hearing his story, Heavenly Lion King narrowed his eyes. He could feel where Fu Chen was going with it. Fu Chen didn’t stop for a long and continued.
“After a year, I had only gone to visit him once a month. It wasn’t because I didn’t like meeting him. I wanted to meet him but it turned out, that some other humans had taken advantage of his weakness sot kill him.”
“I lost friends and a newfound family. I was devastated but I still had my parents and I slowly managed to recover. I started playing with the kids of my age and my race.”
“It was getting good. I was making a lot of friends. I had a good relationship with their parents. Everything was going great until our village suffered a beast wave.”
“Many of my friends died. Many of their parents died. I was lucky enough to survive with my parents. And, at that moment, I realized this world has been polluted by the likes of you and your ideologies.”
When he said that, Heavenly Lion King narrowed his eyes. Wu Kong and Chu Yan were quietly hearing his story. Prince Lion wasn’t knowledgeable like his father so he didn’t understand what Fu Chen meant.
“I realized what I need to do. I realized what was the purpose of those incidents and why did I survive. I realized my goal was to bring peace into this world.”
“But, with the people like you, that can never happen. First, humans, then monsters, the Chaos Star Kingdom, the Divine Star Kingdom, and then the Blue Star Kingdom.”
“The people living in these kingdoms have turned this world into hell and I must change it. I will bring paradise into this world, a peaceful world without any racial battle or war.”
“It’s impossible.” Heavenly Lion King roared.
“Exactly! Even in the face of death, you won’t change. But, is it really true? Well, I am not sure but soon, we will know. Heavenly Lion King, you are the first one to know this but soon, the entire world will about my plan.”
“I know I can’t bring peace into this world when you are still living.”
At this moment, Fu Chen’s Killing Intent burst out. The Sage Energy combined with intense true essence also burst out. His eyes changed as a small purple star appeared in his eyes.
Heavenly Lion King instantly raised all of his flames above him, ready to strike at any moment. But, his eyes narrowed when he saw Fu Chen slowly entering the portal with Wu Kong and Chu Yan.
But, at this moment, Fu Chen didn’t stop talking.
“I am going to decimate the entire world, kill everyone living in this land, and with these eyes, give birth to a new world where there will be no philosophies to hunt monsters for training martial art, to destroy villages to drink the human blood.”
“I, Fu Chen will retreat this world and bring true peace into this world.”
