Becoming Great Emperor by Playing Game-Chapter 445: Trapped in a Predicament!

"Retreat!"

Chen Lan shouted loudly as he saw the Demon Emperor approaching him.

His pupils suddenly contracted, his hair stood on end, sensing some kind of danger approaching, he instantly retreated!

Boom!

A flying sword pierced straight into the spot where he originally stood; if he hadn’t dodged in time, he would have been split in two.

"Not a bad reaction, but after all, you are just a Taoist Saint." The voice of the Demon Emperor echoed from the sky. Chen Lan looked up to see that the Demon Emperor was sneering at him.

Slowly, more people gathered around Chen Lan, each one solemnly staring at the Demon Emperor.

Li Guolong stood on his left, the Fire Giant Demon on his right, and even the young girl Butterfly stood determinedly beside him holding the Ancient Sword Blade!

"Heh, overestimating your strength." The Demon Emperor sneered, pointing a finger.

"Retreat!!!" Chen Lan shouted loudly, unleashing spiritual power to establish a barrier.

But as soon as the words left his mouth, a terrifying pressure descended, and a ray of golden light burst forth from the Demon Emperor’s fingertip. Terrifying spiritual power exploded amongst the crowd, booming like thunder!

Boom!!!

The barrier shattered, and Chen Lan hurriedly protected the young girl Butterfly beside him with his body, but he was still knocked back, sent flying millions of miles away, crashing heavily to the ground, rolling hundreds of times before coming to a stop. When he stood up, he was already in tattered clothes, looking utterly disheveled!

"Butterfly, are you okay?" He quickly looked at Butterfly in his arms and sighed in relief upon seeing she was just a bit dirty, without any major injuries.

"Kill!!!" Suddenly, a shout caused Chen Lan’s body to shake. He looked up to see the Fire Giant Demon and Li Guolong leading the Fire Giant Demon clan charging forward.

But how could they be a match for the Demon Emperor?

In the blink of an eye, they were annihilated, a wave of the hand and Li Guolong instantly vanished, reduced to ashes and disappearing from the world!

"You are all members of the Demon Race, are you planning to betray me?!" The Demon Emperor looked at the Fire Giant Demon and spoke faintly.

"Once a master, always a master; to give one’s life for the master is my pleasure!" the Fire Giant Demon replied coldly, fearlessly charging toward the Demon Emperor.

"Ridiculous, your so-called master is nothing but trash at my mercy." The Demon Emperor sneered, pointing again, instantly obliterating the Fire Giant Demon with terrifying spiritual power!

Seeing this, Chen Lan’s body trembled, clenching his fists. Even though the Fire Giant Demon and Li Guolong were just servants he had recently controlled, they sacrificed their lives for him!

"Do you wish to live or die?" The Demon Emperor then looked at the remaining Fire Giant Demons.

"For the king, kill!!!" The remaining Fire Giant Demons looked at each other, then an elder demon with the strength of a Daoist Venerable suddenly spoke up.

The one who just died was their king, their most outstanding king; whoever killed the king must be avenged!

Seeing the many Fire Giant Demons charging in, the Demon Emperor laughed disdainfully: "Seeking your own doom."

With just a thought, a wave of terrifying spiritual power swept over, instantly annihilating countless Fire Giant Demons, their souls scattered, no longer existing!

Silence!

A dead silence, as quiet as death.

The Demon Emperor slowly looked in Chen Lan’s direction, but Chen Lan was nowhere to be seen!

Suddenly, he turned sharply, punching into the void, sending a figure flying through the air, crashing heavily to the ground, and that person turned out to be Chen Lan!

"Sneak attack? Ridiculous." The Demon Emperor flashed, instantly appearing before Chen Lan, looking down at the disheveled Chen Lan with a contemptuous sneer: "A mere Taoist Saint, dreaming of matching a Dao Emperor, overestimating your strength, die."

With two fingers together, he slashed down, dark clouds gathered, and a giant sword appeared from the sky, rapidly descending toward Chen Lan!

Clang!

Chen Lan suddenly rose, the Flame Thunder Spear thrust forward violently, the spear tip clashing with the sword tip, a fierce wind arose, spiritual power dispersed, his legs bent sharply, yet he still withstood it!

"Interesting." The Demon Emperor suddenly laughed; a little Taoist Saint could actually use physical strength to block his Supreme Treasure, truly intriguing.

But soon, he realized something was wrong, his eyes narrowing, staring intently at the Flame Thunder Spear in Chen Lan’s hand, his heart trembling, eyes revealing surprise: "Good treasure, different from Chaos Supreme Treasure, its power seems to exceed that of Chaos Supreme Treasure; if obtained, I will be invincible in the world with this treasure!"

Hearing this, Chen Lan’s eyes narrowed, gritting his teeth, the divine light from his chest grew more brilliant, suddenly bursting forth, dazzlingly bright!

"Shatter!!!" Chen Lan roared angrily, the Flame Thunder Spear erupted with flames and thunder, its aura shooting up, instantly triggering an explosion.

Boom!!!

The sword tip shattered, rapidly fragmenting until completely broken, the giant sword shattered into pieces, completely exploding!

Seeing his Supreme Treasure destroyed, the Demon Emperor didn’t get angry but instead laughed happily: "Good, very good, I will take this treasure!"

A great hand reached out, a giant hand of spiritual Qi extending, intending to seize Chen Lan and snatch the Flame Thunder Spear.

"Dream on!" Chen Lan sneered, with a thought, the Flame Thunder Spear trembled violently, seemingly about to explode.

Seeing this, the Demon Emperor suddenly halted, his face darkening, coldly shouting: "Human boy, stop!!!"

This boy actually wants to detonate the Magical Treasure; if such a Magical Treasure explodes at such a close range, he would have no chance to escape. Survival would be unlikely and getting injured at this critical juncture is not desirable, especially since self-destructing such a Supreme Treasure would be a great pity, probably irreplaceable in the whole Desolate Celestial Realm.

Chen Lan remained unmoved, still poised to detonate the Flame Thunder Spear, he was stalling for time.

"Do you really think I have no way to handle you?" The Demon Emperor sneered, his left hand suddenly reached out, tearing open the void, pulling out a young girl from the space rift.

The young girl was pale and weary, devoid of blood, tightly hugging an Ancient Sword Blade with both hands, her pitiful, frail appearance eliciting sympathy.

"Butterfly!" Chen Lan exclaimed in shock, he had hidden Butterfly in the Void Space to prevent her from being discovered, but they found her nonetheless.

"Haha, playing the Path of Space in front of me, truly overestimating your abilities." The Demon Emperor laughed, lifting Butterfly, noticing the iron sword in her hand, and sneering when he sensed nothing unique: "Clutching a broken sword so tightly, really like a beggar."

"Don’t you dare call Brother Ye’s sword a broken sword!" Butterfly retorted angrily, trembling as she lifted the iron sword, slashing at the Demon Emperor’s hand, yet causing no harm.

"Still just a mere mortal without cultivation, I don’t understand why you protect her." The Demon Emperor sneered, looking at Chen Lan, "Hand over the Magical Treasure, or I’ll crush this mortal to death right here."

Upon hearing this, Chen Lan’s heart trembled, the hand holding the Flame Thunder Spear shaking slightly but not letting go. He knew that once he let go, he would lose all leverage in negotiations with the Demon Emperor!

With the Flame Thunder Spear and Divine Bone, he still had the strength to contend with the Dao Emperor; if handed over, both Butterfly and he would die.

"If not handed over in three breaths, she will die!" The Demon Emperor spoke coldly, a bit impatient, his left hand exerting pressure, causing Butterfly to grimace in pain.

"Brother Ye, don’t give it to him, Butterfly can still hold on."

"Ridiculous, do you really think you are important? If you were that important, he would have handed it over by now." The Demon Emperor continued his psychological attack.

"You’re talking nonsense; in Brother Ye’s heart, I’m the most important!"

But after Butterfly spoke, she glanced at the still hesitating Chen Lan, biting her lip, then looking toward the iron sword in her hand, her gaze growing firmer as if making a certain decision.

"One breath has passed, only two remaining!"

Chen Lan was still hesitating, and the Demon Emperor applied force again, this time causing Butterfly to cry out in pain.

"I’ll give it!" Chen Lan suddenly looked up, unable to bear hearing Butterfly’s cries.

"Give her to me first, and then I’ll give it to you!"
