Jian Wushuang moved slowly, finding only ten flower demons at the Two Tribulation realm nearby, not even a single one at the Three Tribulation realm, which was indeed a golden opportunity.

Seizing this Hundred Flowers Vine, he could leave in an instant.

There were still ten hours left until the banquet arranged by Muchen.

He had plenty of time.

Hundred Flowers Mountain, fifth layer.

“Young Master, I’ve restrained a large number of flower demons. We can take action now!” an elderly man in green clothes said, his divine power surging violently.

He alone held back several flower demons at the Tribulation Realm.

Behind him were two other Tribulation Realm powerhouses, both formidable, at least at the Three Tribulation level.

However, these two Three Tribulation realm powerhouses were not Universe Masters.

They were wandering Tribulation experts.

Compared to genuine Tribulation Realm experts, wandering Tribulation experts lacked a Dao Arena.

By severing their own Dao, their Dao Arena and universe naturally collapsed.

But the man in green clothes was a genuine Universe Master, with strength several times greater than those two wandering Tribulation Realm experts.

He alone held back a large number of flower demons, including several at the Three Tribulation realm.

In a secluded thicket, a young girl in a light blue skirt had pointed ears and bright green eyes, giving her a mischievous look.

Upon hearing the transmission from the old man, her divine power didn’t erupt, but her speed was exceptionally fast.

With a few flashes, she broke free from the encirclement of flower demons, heading straight for the Hundred Flowers Vine with 400 flower seeds.

However, she was unaware that someone had already seized the opportunity.

“Hmm?”

Jian Wushuang frowned slightly, sensing a very faint force approaching, not threatening, but peculiar.

He didn’t dare to be careless, so after carefully storing the Hundred Flowers Vine, he concealed his figure, preparing to leave.

Those flower demons couldn’t detect him at all.

However, after the Hundred Flowers Vine was stolen, many flower demons glanced around, emitting sharp, piercing sounds, unusually grating to the ears.

Jian Wushuang’s figure gradually materialized under the rippling sound waves.

“They still possess this kind of ability?” Jian Wushuang marveled.

He had encountered similar melodies on the Demon Sound Mountain.

The moment his figure was exposed, he abandoned all disguise and directly erupted with nearly 100,000-fold divine power, recklessly departing.

The young demoness rushing from below, upon unexpectedly encountering a mysterious powerful being, felt a shock in her heart.

Then, realizing the mystery and glancing towards the Hundred Flowers Vine, her expression darkened, puffing her cheeks in frustration.

“Elder Feng, the Hundred Flowers Vine has been snatched away by another powerful individual. Hurry to the fourth level and intercept this person!”

The plot they had planned for so long had been usurped by someone else, leaving the girl infuriated.

Unfortunately, she hadn’t reached the Tribulation Realm yet; otherwise, she would have slaughtered the other party on the spot.

However, the next moment, upon sensing the fluctuation of the mysterious strongman’s divine power, a cold smile crept onto her lips.

“His divine power is less than 100,000-fold!”

Buzz!

The girl soared into the air, her power bursting forth. Although not in the Tribulation Realm, she possessed over 100,000-fold divine power. With the aid of her body-transforming treasures, her divine power could amplify to around 120,000-fold.

Jian Wushuang, who was about to leave, was somewhat surprised to see the girl blocking his path. A mere Emperor, unexpectedly so powerful.

Of course, it was just a passing exclamation.

She must be a genius from some major clan; otherwise, she wouldn’t have come to the fifth layer of the Hundred Flowers Mountain.

Presumably, she was also here for the Hundred Flowers Vine.

However, the treasures in his possession wouldn’t be easy to snatch away.

Jian Wushuang stood proudly, indifferently saying, “Little girl, I advise you to step aside!”

He didn’t have time to conflict with these people now.

“Stealing my opportunity and then asking me to step aside? You’re quite audacious!”

The girl stood with hands on her hips, staring at Jian Wushuang, showing no intention of backing down. Instead, she was preparing to take down Jian Wushuang.

Though an Emperor, her strength could rival that of an average Tribulation Realm expert.

In her eyes, Jian Wushuang was nothing more than an ordinary Tribulation Realm cultivator, with his divine power not even reaching 100,000-fold.

He was simply not her match.

Jian Wushuang slowly raised his arm, curling his fingers slightly into a fist, finally realizing what was happening.

He was being treated like a soft target.

A mere Emperor, even if comparable to a Tribulation Realm cultivator, was insignificant in his presence.

“Then let’s do this!” Jian Wushuang suddenly clenched his fist, roaring angrily as his divine power surged abruptly.

The immense power brought forth a gust of wind, toppling countless trees and shrubs around him.

His divine power, which had been close to 100,000-fold, skyrocketed in an instant to 130,000-fold.

The mischievous and astute girl exclaimed, “You’re quite nimble, I must say. I didn’t expect your divine power to reach 130,000-fold. But this level of strength isn’t enough!”

With that, she dared to strike first.

Jian Wushuang hadn’t anticipated the confidence the girl displayed, knowing full well she only had 120,000-fold divine power, yet she dared to challenge him.

As the girl rushed forward, Jian Wushuang’s true body had long departed, leaving only an afterimage behind.

Her attack missed its mark, and as the girl hastily turned her head to search for Jian Wushuang’s whereabouts, he, being a seasoned veteran of combat, wasn’t about to make it that easy.

In the instant the girl turned, he appeared above her, hands crossing as he delivered a powerful blow that sent her plummeting from the sky.

Then, relying on his agility, he swiftly returned to the ground, injecting the power of All Things into his divine body with one hand before the girl could land. He unleashed a force exceeding 150,000-fold divine power.

This force formed a pillar of light that soared straight into the sky.

That girl, even if she didn’t die, would surely be gravely injured.

In the heat of the battle, it lasted but a moment, and Jian Wushuang acted swiftly.

“I’ve told you, step aside!” Jian Wushuang shook his head with a wry smile.

He thought he had dealt with his opponent already, but as he turned to leave, he felt a formidable force rising behind him.

That force erupted into blazing flames.

Jian Wushuang furrowed his brows.

As he slowly turned around, the fire illuminated half of his face. Behind him, there appeared an immensely huge mass of roots and vegetation, continuously growing.

This scene instantly caught the attention of the flower demons.

Originally engaged in besieging the Three Tribulation realm experts, they now went berserk upon witnessing this scene.

Even the sixth-layer flower demons and spirits were alarmed.

“This?”

The old man in green clothes turned pale, trembling as he said, “The young lady has activated the prohibition. Hurry, go help, or else the backlash will devour her!”

“Steward, notify the mansion immediately!”

“If something happens to the young lady, we won’t be able to bear the consequences!”

Gritting his teeth, the old man in green clothes, who had sneaked out with the young lady this time, knew that seeking help might bring punishment upon them.

But not seeking help now might lead to dire consequences they couldn’t bear.

After a moment of hesitation, the green-clothed steward finally nodded in agreement.

He relayed the message back to a certain mansion in Yue Country, and then the three of them rushed towards the direction where the young lady’s power was erupting.
