Boom!
President Luke’s corpse plummeted onto the square with a crash before turning into its true form—it was actually a Tempest Colossal Dragon with cyan scales all over it and over 70-meters-long!
The Tempest Colossal Dragon was a wind-elemental Colossal Dragon and one of the ten major Dragon breeds. Their forte was wind-elemental Dragon-Language Magic.
Meng Lei descended from the sky and landed on top of the Tempest Colossal Dragon carcass. As he gazed at all the Saint Domains that numbered up to a thousand present, he couldn’t help but lick his lips.
Since hunting Magical Beasts could earn him gold coins... Would killing people also bring him gold coins?
The answer was... A definite yes!
To be honest, Meng Lei had actually known from the very beginning that he could also earn gold coins by killing people, but he had refrained from doing so.
After all, since he could earn gold coins just by hunting Magical Beasts, why should he kill people? He didn’t want to become a cold, ruthless devil that didn’t even so much as bat an eyelid when killing someone, just for the sake of money.
But today, Meng Lei had decided to go on a killing spree!
Killing Angus had earned him 7.3 Laws of Nature Origin Crystals, while killing President Luke had earned 9.2 Laws of Nature Origin Crystals.
With so many Saint Domains present, how many Laws of Nature Origin Crystals would that amount up to?
Besides, a vast majority of them weren’t even human, but... Magical Beasts!
Were Dragons human? Of course not!
“Your Majesty, didn’t you want me to die a terrible death? Why aren’t you attacking yet?”
Meng Lei held his hands behind him, and leisurely took step after step toward the emperor as though he was taking a stroll in the park.
“Guards! Guards!”
Frederick the 32nd was so frightened that he shuddered all over and began to shout at the top of his lungs.
“Protect the emperor!”
“Protect His Majesty!”
Everyone quickly stood in front of the emperor, assuming a fighting stance as if they were protecting the emperor. However, their faces were pale, their legs were shaking, and their eyes were brimming with fear.
Meng Lei had badly frightened all of them.
“Meng Lei, stop that!” President Fred stepped forward at this point. “It’s not too late yet if you turn back now. If you continue to err so stubbornly, the Dragon God Empire will no longer have a place for you!”
“Turn back? Can I still turn back?”
As he looked into Fred’s eyes, which were filled with sadness and heartache, Meng Lei looked up and sighed to the heavens. “President, do you know something? I just lost someone who was dearest to me!”
President Fred was startled.
“To save me, he perished together with the Tree of Life. That’s the only reason why these pieces of garbage could leave the Lost Continent alive!”
Meng Lei cast a glance at the dozens of surviving contestants, frightening them so badly that their insides nearly ruptured from fear.
“But look at what happened in the end? Not only are these heartless and cold-blooded ingrates not even the least bit thankful, but they even want me to take the blame! Don’t you think they deserve to die?”
“Perished together with the Tree of Life?”
At once, something seemed to occur to President Fred, and he exclaimed, “Could it be that the Dragon King supporting you... has died?!”
“That’s right!
Meng Lei nodded heavily as harsh, killing intent filled his eyes. “So, don’t stop me! You can’t stop me, anyway! I’m going to kill all these ingrates today and let them follow Ol’ President to the otherworld!”
“Meng Lei...”
Fred wanted to persuade him further, but Meng Lei had already vanished from where he was. By the time he reappeared, he was already right in front of the emperor and the many other Saint Domains.
“Bunch of ingrates, how do you still have the cheek to live with yourselves in this world? Go to hell, all of you!”
With a flick of his fingers, several ice blades shot forward and instantly engulfed the surviving contestants!
Splurt!
Splurt!
A round of ice blades later, all the surviving contestants had lost their lives. They didn’t even have the time to beg for mercy!
After that, Meng Lei turned to Frederick the 32nd as if he’d only done something so trivial that it wasn’t even worth mentioning.
“Your Majesty, I feel pretty wronged that you should claim that I’ve caused the deaths of 108 contestants,” Meng Lei said with a slight smile, “So that you do not wrong me, I shall do a little something!”
“W-what are you planning to do?”
Frederick the 32nd roared furiously, “I’m the emperor of the empire! The noble and distinguished Dragon Emperor! If you dare attack me, all the old grandmasters on the Dragon Island will never let you off! There will no longer be a place for you in this whole world!”
“Is that so? I’d like very much to try that, then!”
Meng Lei made a grabbing motion in the air, and then, an ice sword glittering with a cold, icy glint appeared in his hand.
“Guards! Guards!”
Frederick the 32nd retreated several steps, filled with alarm and fear. The group of Saint Domain experts standing in front of him and blocking him from Meng Lei also retreated along with him.
With every step Meng Lei advanced, they took a step back. With another step forward, they took yet another step back!
A single person was actually pressuring a thousand Saint Domains into pathetic retreat! It was practically the most comical sight ever!
“You bold, audacious outlaw! Don’t you hurt His Majesty!”
At that moment, a few loud and sonorous dragon roars suddenly traveled over from the
