The Ultimate Fire Master of Avatar

Chapter 178 An Unexpected Turn of Events

"What's that in the sky?"

"Could it be a comet?"

"No, they're the enemy!!"

"Stop him!"

"No, they're too fast!"

"Defense! Defense!!"

The soldiers of the Fire Kingdom on the ground looked up in astonishment at the red meteor streaking across the sky. Everyone panicked and shouted, but there was nothing they could do but watch helplessly as the enemy in the sky rammed into the palace.

Kahn, aboard the E, also ignored the commotion below; his objective was very clear—

Ao Zai.

He was quite familiar with Ao Zai. Even the Ao Zai from the parallel world had similar [spirits]. At this moment, Ao Zai's location was firmly locked by him, leaving no possibility of escape.

The familiar yet unfamiliar palace of the Fire Kingdom gradually grew larger and clearer in his field of vision.

At the same time, the palace guards quickly assembled in his direction of advance, and more than a dozen elite fire masters worked together to raise a huge wall of fire, several meters wide and tens of meters high, blocking Kahn's path.

Kahn drew his sword with his right hand, swung his arm vertically, and instantly split the massive wall of fire in two, easily passing through it and continuing his charge toward his destination without slowing down.

But it wasn't over yet. The second and third waves of the Royal Guard quickly assembled, and the fire masters and archers launched an attack on Kahn in the sky. Flames and arrows flew together, forming a dense net that enveloped Kahn from below.

With a powerful flap of its enormous wings, Wu roared through the air as it once again broke its speed limit, escaping the encirclement of flames and arrows, and finally flying over the palace.

"Thanks a lot."

Kahn thanked Wu, who let out a clear cry and vanished into thin air.

Kahn fell freely through the air, his hands placed in front of his chest, and the grand palace in front of him quickly filled his entire field of vision.

"boom--!"

A tremendous amount of energy gathered between Kahn's hands. Just as the two were about to make contact, the energy, compressed to its limit, burst forth, blasting a large hole in the top of the hall and slowing Kahn's descent, allowing him to land lightly in the center of the hall.

Deep within the main hall, Ao Zai sat high upon the throne of fire, the raging flames before him obscuring his form and concealing his expression; only his deep voice could be heard as he spoke:

"Who goes there?"

Kahn did not answer, but instead scanned the scene before him.

The world map at his feet was where the officials held their meeting; the seats on either side of the map were in disarray, suggesting that the officials had left in a great hurry.

Their plan seemed to be going very smoothly. The Fire Kingdom was unaware of the eclipse and was completely unprepared for this sudden attack.

Furthermore, between him and Ao Zai, a squad of imperial guards stood guard, watching him warily. The leader of this squad was someone he knew.

Virginia Woolf.

Even though he wasn't recruited by Azura in this world, he remains a loyal henchman of Aoza.

After taking in everything before him, Kahn looked up at the figure behind the flames and asked with a smile:

"All the officials have fled, why didn't you?"

"Me? Escape?"

Upon hearing this, flames erupted from Ao Zai's body, and a furious shout rang out:

"Who do you think you're talking to! I am the Fire King!"

Kahn remained unmoved, even somewhat amused, and bluntly scoffed:

"Fire King? You are nothing but a patricide, a usurper, a cannibalistic father, a perverted husband, a complete psychopath, and a scheming villain."

"you!!!"

While Ao Zai was furious, he was also terrified. He didn't know why this nobody who had suddenly appeared knew his secret.

He never told anyone about patricide and usurpation, except...

Er Shu?!

Regardless, when the other person revealed his secret, he knew that he absolutely could not let this person leave.

and so--

"Kill him!"

At Ao Zai's command, the Imperial Guard, led by Woolf, instantly moved into action, sending dozens of fireballs hurtling towards Kahn simultaneously, the dense barrage obscuring his entire vision.

However, as soon as Kahn retracted his hands, the flames released by the Royal Guard were drawn to his hands like light being captured by a black hole, and transformed back into invisible energy.

"boom!"

The next moment, the accumulated energy burst forth, transforming into an unparalleled ring of flames that surged from between Kahn's hands, sweeping away the Imperial Guards in front of him and blasting them to pieces.

With a single strike, he wiped out the elite of the elite, the entire Imperial Guard. Such strength is simply unbelievable and terrifying!

Of the guards, only Woolf could barely get up from the ground, but even that took all her strength.

He stared at Kahn in disbelief. The most terrifying thing about that attack was that although it looked like flames, what they experienced was the impact force.

His ribs were completely broken where he was attacked in the chest, but there was no trace of burns.

What kind of terrifying control is this? How can such a terrifying attack maintain such exquisite control?

He looked at Kahn and murmured incredulously:

"What...what kind of monster are you?"

"Not a monster, but a genius."

Looking at the face of an old acquaintance from another world, Kahn still had the mood to smile and make a few jokes.

But suddenly, Kahn's expression changed.

"boom--!"

At the critical moment, Kahn kicked Woolf aside, using the reaction force and the propulsion of the flames in his hands to leave his original position. The next second, thunder and lightning struck, passing through the spot where the two had been, illuminating Kahn's face and the dim hall.

Kahn looked at Aozai with a gloomy expression.

The flames on the platform had disappeared, clearly revealing Ao Zai's figure. He remained in the posture of casting the lightning spell, looking at Kahn with a gloomy expression.

Kahn was furious at Aozai's shamelessness, while Aozai was furious at the skill Kahn displayed.

Ao Zai angrily rebuked:

"You're a member of the Fire Clan?! You're a Fire Master?! How dare you defy your king?!"

"Oh."

Kahn sneered upon hearing this:

"You should think more about your last words."

Ao Zai was both shocked and furious, but his hands moved quickly. Before Kahn could finish speaking, lightning flashed at his fingertips again, and a fierce and unparalleled bolt of lightning shot out, accompanied by the crackling sound of birdsong, heading straight for Kahn's heart!

However, Kahn had already taken precautions.

Reverse Thunderfire!

The moment he saw the lightning, he assumed a stance, drawing the surging lightning from his left fingertips, through his dantian, and converging at his right fingertips.

Seeing Aozai's incredulous expression, Kahn thought to himself that Azura was right after all; it really did only take one round to kill Aozai.

and so--

Go to hell.

"boom!"

Using their own methods against them, the lightning released by Aozai shot out from the fingertip of Kahn's right hand, pointing at Aozai himself.

But at that moment, a stone pillar suddenly rose up in front of Ao Zai, blocking the lightning strike. The stone pillar was blasted into pieces by the lightning, but Ao Zai survived unharmed.

"Kahn, stop!"

"Ugh."

Kahn sighed, turned to look at An Ang who was catching up, and said helplessly:

"Does this melodramatic drama really have to happen?"

You can probably guess this direction, but don't worry, I won't write any plots that involve torturing the protagonist or melodramatic scenes.
