Jackie Chan Adventures: I, the Mirror God, Master of Fear

Chapter 251 The Fall of the New King

Shadow Jade frowned and looked at the remaining nine Shadow Generals.

The generals all avoided eye contact; they were brought out by Tara and had no way to resist.

And Tara is now a queen, though she's not quite crowned yet.

Shadow Jade silently watched them, and after a moment of silence, slowly turned to Tara.

He hasn't said anything yet.

Under General Nija.

A ninja soldier stood up.

Tara's expression changed slightly as she looked at General Nija, one of Nija's soldiers.

Under immense pressure, General Nika raised his hand, intending to erase the ninja soldier's essence.

But the next moment, he discovered that the ninja soldier was protected by an even stronger will, and he had no way to eliminate the ninja soldier.

A hint of change appeared in Shadow Jade's otherwise silent eyes.

Raise your hand.

The ninja soldier knelt on one knee, placed one hand on his chest, and rested his head under Shadow Jade's hand, trembling all over.

The soldiers should be absolutely loyal to the general; he shouldn't have come out, but... that's the queen!

"Are you confident in becoming the new Nija?"

"Shadow Jade asked calmly."

The soldier lowered his head and didn't speak, but his excitement was palpable, and his entire demeanor changed.

Nija is not simply the name of a general.

It also represents a human figure and belongs to the category of titles.

A hint of a smile appeared in Shadow Jade's silent eyes.

An immense amount of authority was instantly poured into the soldier's body, his eyes grew increasingly bloodshot, his primordial energy surged wildly, and many ninja soldiers became restless.

But then the will of General Niga and King Tara descended, extinguishing the restlessness of these ninja soldiers.

In the void.

Tara's expression grew even more grim. The Third Legion could not afford any gaps, otherwise it would become a weakness, leaving him with no chance of victory.

"kill!"

boom!
The entire Shadow Kingdom was shaken.

The nine legions, led by their nine generals, charged out without hesitation, heading towards the former queen.

Shadow Jade didn't raise her eyes, seemingly testing the limits of the ninja soldier before her.

Behind her, the eyes of the eighteen shadow generals were filled with killing intent and drive.

"For the Queen, kill the traitor!"

General Gemo of the Shadow Legion roared fiercely, his voice resounding throughout the Shadow Kingdom, sending thousands of Shadow Soldiers flying with a huge sonic wave.

A chaotic battle erupted instantly, a war involving tens of millions of soldiers, turning the royal city into a no-man's land.

The incredibly dense shadow energy was constantly being released, and the wisps of drifting material were the emanations of the shadow soldiers after their complete demise.

One by one, the houses of the Shadow Kingdom collapsed in the collision.

With twice the manpower, they quickly overwhelmed Tara's army.

Tara's expression grew even uglier. He looked down at the Shadow Jade, who didn't even bother to glance at him, raised his hand, and the Shadow Scepter appeared in his hand, transforming into a large sword.

While the victory of a legion is important, the victory between kings is the most crucial.

Tara lowered her body, crashing down with boundless shadows.

Many Shadow Generals' expressions changed slightly, as if they wanted to stop them, but then they abruptly stopped themselves, staring at their former colleagues, now rebels, with their killing intent growing stronger.

Tara stared intently at the Shadow Jade, the blazing flames around him forming a line that protected him from the oppression of power, as he approached the Old King.

The greatsword, carrying the power of the new king and the combined authority of the three commanders, fell fiercely.

thump~
A muffled sound echoed throughout the Shadow Kingdom.

The vast battlefield seemed to fall silent for a brief moment, before the fighting intensified.

Tara looked down in disbelief at the Shadow Queen, who had caught her full-force attack with one hand, her body trembling slightly.

With a casual wave of her hand, the ninja soldier who had been promoted to Shadow General level rushed into the battlefield.

The Queen slowly stood up.

Darkness continued to spread around her, and enormous black willow catkins continued to gather and flow into the queen's body.

"Queen"

Tara took a step back.

He felt somewhat incredulous. What was going on? This queen no longer seemed to be the queen controlled by humans, but the true Shadow Queen.

But then Tara gritted her teeth. What could a queen do? In all these thousands of years, he had come this far. Even a queen couldn't stop him from becoming king.

The longsword grew ever sharper as Tara attempted to draw the Shadow Blade.

But the next moment, the Queen clenched her fists slightly, and the Shadow Blade shattered with a bang.

It quickly formed a jet-black shadow wand in the Queen's hand.

One end of the wand quickly softened, turning into a whip that writhed in the Shadow Queen's hand.

The Queen finally looked at Tara, her scarlet eyes filled with murderous intent: "My things, I won't give them to you, and you can't touch them."

"Kneel down!" *Boom!*
The massive shadow instantly revived to its fullest extent.

The entire shadow became more active, and Tara felt an immense pressure, causing his body to slowly sink.

He forcefully resisted this momentum.

The battlefield took a crucial turn when a shadow ninja approached General Nija, who was kneeling on one knee, with a black shuriken around his neck, looking utterly disheveled.

The ninja's crimson eyes were filled with disdain, as if to say: You can't even die for the Queen, what kind of general are you? Let me take your place!
He grabbed General Nija's face and pulled hard.

hum~
The Shadow Generals are rapidly changing, and now a new, even more powerful Shadow General has been bestowed upon us by the Queen herself.

At this moment, all the ninja soldiers knelt on one knee, but not to the new Nika, but to the Queen.

The Third Army Corps is missing a general; defeat is inevitable.

Meanwhile, the two kings...

slap~
The Shadow Whip lashed out fiercely.

Tara's body flew backward, but the tip of the whip caught her ankle, and she slammed to the ground.

Tara bounced twice on the ground, barely managing to stand up, her eyes fixed on the Queen.

"Impossible! I am a king too! I am a king too! The gap between us can't be that big! I am a king too!"

He clenched his fist and charged toward the Queen, as the immense power of shadow coalesced once more.

The Shadow Queen looked down at Tara from her high position and lashed out with her whip.

slap~
Tara's body trembled again, a huge whip mark appearing on her body, and she shook violently.

To his horror, he discovered that the ribbon of fire protecting him was damaged!
Impossible! That's the Demon Lord, the highest-ranking being in the world, how could he possibly...
unless
The shadow is abandoning itself!

The oath of the shadows naturally becomes invalid if one can no longer become king.
"I don't believe it! You should have fallen along with those old guard! The Shadow needs a new king! And only I can be the new king!"

Tara roared in a sorry state, her immense shadow power erupting wildly as she charged towards the Shadow Queen once more.

"Why did you show up? If you hadn't, Shadow would have already ruled the world! Even if you hadn't appeared, I could still rise to power with Shadow now. Why did you have to show up?"

The Shadow Queen's whip, which was about to be lashed out, froze. She seemed to ponder for a moment, then stared at the thin strap on Tara's body.

Finally speaking, he declared, "Your Majesty will not submit to any other king, not even a demon lord!"

Tara remained mad, unleashing an immense and devastating darkness that erupted with frenzied fury.

In his mind, this was merely a means to an end. Since he had the ambition to become king 5,500 years ago, he had never truly submitted to anyone.

The other nineteen Shadow Generals, who were holding back the eight Shadow Generals of the Third Legion, retreated with their prisoners, watching the battle between the two kings with apprehension.

The Shadow Queen, amidst the Shadow Frenzy, seemed to know what this traitor was thinking.

He calmly replied, "Even Shadow wouldn't!"

She tapped it gently.

An immensely vast shadow will, carrying endless darkness, descended with a deafening roar.

Tara's energy surge was instantly quelled, and the scorching thin band around his neck was violently stained black, like a chain tightly wrapped around Tara's neck, suppressing his power.

Tara stood there, stunned, fist raised, her eyes filled with disbelief.

how is this possible
"I said, kneel down!"

Follow your words.

The immense power of shadow, imbued with authority, caused Tara's legs to buckle, and she knelt before the Shadow Queen.

Tara was trembling all over, not from fear, but from resentment, intense resentment. So close, so very close.
If the Queen could have recovered more slowly, if I could have been better prepared, and if my coronation ceremony could have been faster.

If I had been more decisive, would everything have turned out differently?
The Queen seemed to sense his resentment.

She simply walked calmly past him.

Wow.
A pale hand grabbed the black chains binding him and dragged him forward, towards the direction where tens of millions of soldiers were watching.

"With this chain, you can never become king!"

Tara was taken aback. Just as she was about to retort, she felt her body expanding wildly, as if the power of shadow was being ignited.

He felt no fear, nor did he feel that he had done anything wrong. Just as he had told the other two commanders, it was all just a matter of the victor taking all.

He managed to say with difficulty, "Just... a little bit more."

boom!
Shadow Tara's body turned to dust in the void, under the watchful eyes of tens of millions of Shadow Soldiers.

Tara's shadow power began to repair the severely damaged city.

The former king had already arrived before his throne.

She gently stroked the throne before her, her eyes filled with longing.

The next moment, she felt a powerful will trying to pull her back into that eternally dark space.

She frowned, struggled fiercely, gritted her teeth, turned around, and sat on her throne.

The king cannot tolerate betrayal.

Even if someone wanted to use her to eliminate the new king, she would not hesitate to step forward and sit on her throne.

Below, the nineteen Shadow Generals released the eight Shadow Generals who were no longer under their protection.

Twenty-seven Shadow Generals, leading tens of millions of Shadow Soldiers, knelt down with a thud, shouting.

"Greetings, Your Majesty!"

Shadow Jade, who had just suppressed the Shadow Queen's consciousness, was slightly taken aback.

Thus, the new king of shadows fell!
