Mephisto's expression remained unchanged despite the contempt of the crowd; he was already the most shameless demon king in Hell, and more importantly, he would rather destroy something he couldn't have than let anyone else obtain it.
For a demon, harming others without benefiting oneself was only natural!
As soon as Mephisto finished speaking, a circle of golden sparks appeared in front of Wang Nanxuan, and immediately afterward, the circle formed by the golden sparks rapidly expanded, with a yellow figure faintly visible behind it.
"Sorcerer Supreme?"
Wang Nanxuan gasped, hastily drawing out Blackheart's power and forming a black orb which he shot towards the spatial teleportation gate.
Bang! The black orb instantly exploded upon reaching the teleportation gate, and amidst the violent tremors, the gate rapidly collapsed.
Before Wang Nanxuan could breathe a sigh of relief, sparks reappeared around him, rotating much faster than before, and then, a yellow figure walked out from the teleportation gate.
This figure had graying hair and a gloomy expression, giving off a very unapproachable vibe, but Wang Nanxuan let out a sigh of relief; it wasn't Ancient One, but her senior disciple, Kaecilius.
Mephisto was startled and shouted in dissatisfaction, "Why isn't Ancient One here?"
"The Sorcerer Supreme does not need to explain her actions to you."
Kaecilius glanced at Mephisto, condensing a magic whip and preparing to attack Wang Nanxuan, just then, a flaming chain violently smashed towards him.
Kaecilius hastily swung his magic whip to deflect the flaming chain, which then crashed into a nearby stone pillar with a bang, shattering it and sending rubble flying.
Mephisto roared in anger, "Ghost Rider, what are you doing?!"
"Roxanne cannot be harmed."
Johnny yelled as he hurled the flames from his body at Kaecilius; the Wind Demon had told him that if the Hell Lord was harmed, Roxanne would die, and Roxanne was the woman he loved most, so he absolutely could not let anything happen to her.
Mephisto was almost driven to death by anger; at such a crucial moment, you're playing at romance with me?
Unfortunately, the Spirit of Vengeance within Johnny was special, and Mephisto couldn't strip it away; in fact, he couldn't do anything at all right now, which was incredibly frustrating.
"Get lost."
Kaecilius swung his magic whip, smashing the Hellfire one after another, then, he drew a circle with one hand, and a circle of light appeared beneath Johnny's feet, causing Johnny to fall uncontrollably.
At the critical moment, the Wind Demon rushed over, swept up Johnny, and forcefully threw him towards Kaecilius; Kaecilius cast spells with both hands, and a barrier like glazed glass appeared out of thin air, Johnny crashed into the barrier with a bang and fell downwards.
Kaecilius controlled the barrier, preparing to imprison Johnny, just then, a red flame surged into Johnny's body, Johnny roared, the flames on his body surged, and he shattered the barrier with one punch, turning into butterflies and dissipating.
It was Wang Nanxuan who had transferred the power of the Spirit of Vengeance to Johnny, and with the added support, Johnny's strength greatly increased, and he teamed up with the Wind Demon to battle Kaecilius.
"Spirit of Vengeance? You not only stole my contract, but you also stole my Spirit of Vengeance?!"
Mephisto was so angry he almost spat blood, Wang Nanxuan couldn't be bothered with him, as the last soul flew into his body, Small Hell was about to be officially completed.
"Haha, it's a success."
Wang Nanxuan was overjoyed, just at this critical moment, suddenly, everything around him stopped, as if a movie had been paused, whether it was the ferocious Johnny, the enraged Mephisto, or the excited Wang Nanxuan, all were frozen there.
"Time Stop! Ancient One, you did this on purpose, didn't you?"
As the Hell Lord, Wang Nanxuan's consciousness was not stopped, he cursed with his mental power, stopping neither early nor late, but precisely when he was about to succeed, this was clearly playing a trick on him.
Just then, Wang Nanxuan's vision blurred, and he appeared in an ancient hall, an elegant and composed bald woman in a yellow robe sat quietly holding a fan, without a doubt, she was the Sorcerer Supreme Gu Yi who suppressed all realms and made countless demon gods tremble in fear.
The Sorcerer Supreme raised her hand and said to Wang Nanxuan, "Please sit, newborn Hell Lord."
Wang Nanxuan glanced at the Sorcerer Supreme, then suddenly laughed, he sat down in front of the Sorcerer Supreme and said, "Pausing time at the last moment, and then inviting me into an illusion, Sorcerer Supreme, are you trying to negotiate with me?"
Ancient One did not answer directly, she looked at Wang Nanxuan with eyes that seemed to see through everything and said, "You are very special."
Wang Nanxuan's heart skipped a beat, but on the surface, he said, "Are you referring to how exceptionally handsome I am?"
Ancient One smiled slightly and said, "Perhaps it means you are exceptionally thick-skinned."
Wang Nanxuan's face darkened, he said, "Sorcerer Supreme, tell me, what are your conditions? Don't be too excessive, Small Hell is about to be completed, if I wanted to, I could cause mutual destruction with Earth, you should know, I'm the one with nothing to lose, so I'm not afraid of you who has everything."
"You are indeed one with nothing to lose."
Ancient One said, "Not only are you special, but this world is also very special."
Wang Nanxuan asked, "What's so special about it?"
Ancient One raised her fan and pointed, a magical light screen appeared, and in the screen, a wise bald man in a wheelchair was teaching a group of students.
Wang Nanxuan narrowed his eyes slightly: "This is, Professor Charles?"
"A year ago there were no Mutant, then, they suddenly appeared, and everyone thought their existence was normal, only a few beings noticed something was wrong."
Ancient One said, "Situations like this have occurred four times this year, which means four worlds have merged into this world, Mutant and Ghost Rider both appeared after the world fusion."
"World fusion?"
Wang Nanxuan became even more astonished, Ancient One nodded, she said, "That's right, world fusion, this year, I have been searching for the truth, but found nothing, the only thing I can be sure of is that the world fusion has not ended, it will continue.
No one knows what will happen to this world in the future, you are a very special person, so, I can let you keep Small Hell, but I have two conditions."
Wang Nanxuan said, "Tell me, but let me state beforehand, I only accept reasonable conditions, it wasn't easy to become a Demon King, I can't just compromise myself like before."
Ancient One looked at Wang Nanxuan and said, "You cannot cause large-scale harm to humans, nor can you do anything that might destroy humanity."
"You make me sound like some inhumane Great Demon King? Uh, I really am a Great Demon King."
Wang Nanxuan said, "Don't worry, even if you didn't say it, I wouldn't do such a thing."
"A Hell Lord is not necessarily a Great Demon King."
Ancient One shook her head and said, "By the way, after Small Hell is established, your Hell will be connected to Earth, if Earth is destroyed, your Hell will suffer a certain impact."
"A certain impact?"
Wang Nanxuan narrowed his eyes and asked, "Sorcerer Supreme, did you secretly do something?"
"If I had done something, it wouldn't just be an impact that doesn't harm the foundation, simply put, it's being affected by a spatial storm."
Ancient One said, "Second, you cannot use violence or murderous means to collect souls, you can only use contracts to make people voluntarily give you their souls, similar to Mephisto."
