“How did that happen?”
Emperor Frederick the 32nd had broken down completely. No matter how he thought about it, he couldn’t understand why Meng Lei, who was just 16 years old, was that strong.
He killed pinnacle-level Saint Domains as if he were just slaughtering livestock.
Just how did he manage to do that?
“You’re the only one left now!”
With the Hammer of Destruction hoisted over his shoulder, Meng Lei looked at the longest Golden Colossal Dragon and asked, “What’s your preferred manner of death?”
“You... You’ve actually killed nine of the elders!”
The Grand Elder was shaking as flames of wrath and hatred burst forth from his eyes. Amid his fury was, however, a hint of alarm and fear.
Although the other nine elders weren’t as strong as him, they were nevertheless still pinnacle-level Saint Domains.
Instantly killing pinnacle-level Saint Domains? He absolutely wouldn’t be able to do that at all!
And yet... Meng Lei had managed to!
What did this show?
It showed that Meng Lei was even more powerful than him and even stronger than a limits-level Saint Domain—a half-deity!
Only a half-deity would be stronger than a limits-level Saint Domain.
The moment that occurred to him, the Grand Elder couldn’t help but bellow in a deep voice, “Sir, by acting in such a way that shows no regard for authority, don’t you fear the Dragon Island’s half-deity’s punishment!?”
“That’s my business. I don’t need your unnecessary concern about that.” Then, Meng Lei suddenly laughed and added, “But if you want to worry about something like that, I can give you the opportunity.”
“What are you intending to do?” the Grand Elder bellowed in a deep voice.
“I’ve always had a dream, and that is to roam the heavens while riding a Colossal Dragon. In the past, I was too weak and could only dream about it, but that’s no longer the case now.”
Meng Lei gave him a leisurely smile and said, “Although you aren’t a pure-blooded Golden Colossal Dragon, you’re not that far off, either. As long as you form a master-servant contract with me and become my mount, I can spare your life!”
“Form a master-servant contract with you? And become your mount?”
The Grand Elder was so furious that he was shaking all over. “Sir, what you’re doing is trampling on a Colossal Dragon’s pride! The prideful Dragons will never let you off!”
“So, you’re not agreeable to it? Die, then!”
With an icy snort, Meng Lei came right up to the Grand Elder with just a step and swung the Hammer of Destruction down!
“No!”
The Grand Elder’s eyes were widened to the point of splitting, yet he nevertheless couldn’t dodge the Hammer of Destruction smashing down heavily toward him.
Crack!
Under the hammer, the limits-level Saint Domain great expert was no different from the previous nine pinnacle-level Golden Colossal Dragons—with just a strike, the hammer blasted his head apart, too!
Boom!
The enormous Dragon carcass plummeted onto the ground, causing an intense tremor to go through the ground before everything returned to peace and quiet.
In spite of that, no-one was feeling any peace and quiet in their hearts. In fact... All of them had already lost it!
“Dead? He’s died just like that?”
“Even the limits-level Saint Domain Grand Elder is dead?”
“Nine pinnacle-level Saint Domains and one limits-level Saint Domain have died just like that?”
“A devil! He’s the devil himself!”
“O great Dragon God, hurry and save your pious descendants...”
“And now, it’s all of your turns!”
With the Hammer of Destruction hoisted over his shoulder, Meng Lei gazed at Frederick the 32nd and the many other Saint Domains, nobles, and officials.
“Guards! Guards!”
Frederick the 32nd was as pale as a sheet, so frightened that he was shivering all over. Which part of him even looked like a sovereign now?
“Now... No-one can save all of you anymore!”
Meng Lei had a calm and tranquil look on his visage as he asked, “The higher management officials of Dragon God Empire are all here now, right?”
Frederick the 32nd’s voice trembled as he asked, “M-Meng Lei, what exactly are you planning? Be clear about it!”
Meng Lei gave him a calm smile as he replied, “Wiping all of you out at once!”
“Wiping all of us out at once?”
Everyone’s countenances changed greatly!
“Divine Technique: Absolute Zero!”
With a flick of his fingers, a golden, chilly air current burst forth and spread forward.
“Run!”
Everyone’s insides were close to rupturing from fear as they fled madly. However, the golden, chilly air current was even quicker—in the blink of an eye, it had spread outward and enveloped the entire square!
Creeeak!
Creeeak!
Creeeak!
All that it stood in the chilly air current’s path became sealed in ice.
From Frederick the 32nd to every high-ranking official, all of them were frozen to the spot. Then, they turned into golden ice sculptures.
Everyone maintained a pose in the midst of escape while looks of alarm and fear also remained on their faces.
In this instant, everything had become frozen in time!
“Flee? How laughable!”
Meng Lei walked into the crowd of ice sculptures. A sculpture fell onto the ground with a light tap, and then, with a loud crack, it shattered into ice chips!
“Meng Lei! Stop that! Hurry and stop that! They are all higher management officials of the empire! You can’t kill them all!”
President Fred, the Fighting Dragon Academy president, and the other four who hadn’t been sealed in ice, stared hard at Meng Lei.
“I know what I’m doing, Presidents.”
Meng Lei shook his head lightly and pushed the second ice sculpture down. Then, he went on to the third, fourth, fifth, sixth...
By the time Meng Lei had walked from one end of the square to the other end, 99% of the ice sculptures had broken into bits and pieces. Only about a dozen vivid-looking ice sculptures were left standing—and all of them
