“Yes, Master!”
Thus, Bubbles took on the role of a butcher.
With a stroke from his stretched out hand, Dragon scales fell.
With a casual snap, Dragon horns were broken.
With a forceful pull, Dragon tendons were extracted.
“Aaahhhh!!”
At once, the Dragon God let out a heartrending scream, yet it couldn’t budge even an inch.
Bubbles’ physical strength was simply too fearsome. It was far, far beyond what he had imagined.
Just like that, as everyone present watched in dumbfounded silence, Bubbles killed the Dragon God as if he were killing a pig for Lunar New Year celebrations.
He stripped the Dragon God of its scales and ripped off its skin.
Then, he collected its blood and extracted its internal organs.
Lastly, he washed its liver and cleaned its entrails.
The poor Dragon God was a great true god, yet it had been slaughtered amid its own indignant, baleful, and furious screams. It could be said to be the deity that had suffered the most tragic death in Heaven’s Vault Continent’s history.
“The task has been successfully completed, Master!”
“Great!”
Meng Lei nodded lightly. He split the Dragon God’s blood into a million portions with a big wave and sent them right up to everyone present.
“My thanks to everyone for joining us in today’s ceremony. I am immensely grateful. I can only offer you Dragon blood in place of wine to thank everyone for gracing me with your presence!
“Don’t worry, the divinity in the Dragon blood has been fully cleansed. You may drink it with no worries!”
Then, Meng Lei picked up a bowl of Dragon blood, threw back his head, and downed it all. Bubbles and the other ten half-deities also did the same.
Everyone gazed at the Dragon blood in front of them, all somewhat hesitant. However, immune delight surfaced in the half-deities and Saint Domain experts’ eyes, and they raised their heads and drank all the blood.
The Dragon God’s blood!
Just what kind of supreme treasure was that?
They couldn’t have a sip of it even in their dreams usually! Now that it was sitting right before them, they would be fools if they didn’t drink it!
After a few moments of hesitation, the commoners and worshipers also raised their heads and drank it all down.
Meng Lei wasn’t the least bit worried that their bodies would explode and lead to their deaths. Although the Dragon God’s blood contained a vast amount of energy, there was too little in each portion after splitting it into a million portions. Therefore, it was within an ordinary person’s capacity.
“Damn! He’s killed even the Dragon God!”
The Tempest Colossal Dragon hidden in the crowd gazed at the Dragon blood in front of him, his heart quivering.
He had initially thought that with the Dragon God’s descent, the Dragon God would definitely be able to unleash its power and kill Meng Lei. Yet the reality of the matter was...
“I hereby declare—from today onward, the Dragon God Empire shall officially change its name to the Meng Lei Empire, and I shall officially become the Meng Lei Empire’s founding emperor!”
Meng Lei’s voice thundered as he declared, “My first order as the emperor is as follows—free every human who’s still being exploited, enslaved, and abused! The range—all the humans on the continent!”
“How presumptuous!”

The moment the order left his mouth, everyone’s expressions changed.
Freeing all the humans on the continent... This was tantamount to declaring war on the other three great empires in a roundabout way.
It was common knowledge that the four major empires were where human populations were the biggest. Meng Lei’s desire to free the human slaves was no different from interfering with the three major empires’ internal affairs.
How would the three empires possibly agree to that?
It went without saying what their responses were.
The Thunder Titan Emperor, the Beast Emperor, and the Fairy Empress’ countenances turned incredibly awful-looking. While they had been furious at Meng Lei’s impassioned speech earlier, they couldn’t be bothered to do anything about it and had adopted a disinterested attitude at things that didn’t concern them.
It was none of their business, no matter what kind of trouble Meng Lei wanted to make in the Dragon God Empire.
Yet he was actually clamoring about freeing the human slaves in their borders now. This move would completely uproot and destroy their empires!
“Envoys of the three major empires, please communicate my decision to your respective monarchs upon return!”
Meng Lei turned to the envoys and added, “I want results within a month!”
“Your Majesty!”
A valiant, heroic, and beautiful Fairy with a sword fastened at her waist spoke up at this point—it was Regimental Commander Azshara from the Fairy Empire. She gazed straight at Meng Lei and said, “The decision as to whether human slavery would be abolished or not is part of the Fairy Empire’s internal affairs. Your Majesty has no right to interfere!”
“I have no interest in the Fairy Empire’s internal affairs. The only thing I’m concerned about is the human race!”
Meng Lei said dispassionately, “The Meng Lei Empire is founded on the basis of the people, and our foundation is the humans themselves. Any matter that concerns the humans, concerns the Meng Lei Empire!”
“Your Majesty, forgive my impudence,” Azshara said coldly, “But the human population in Heaven’s Vault Continent is far vaster than just mere billions. You can only speak on behalf of the humans of the Meng Lei Empire, but you cannot represent the voices of all the humans on Heaven’s Vault Continent!”
Meng Lei was mildly taken aback. Seemingly rendered speechless by Azshara, he nodded slowly only after a brief moment. Then, he said, “Your words make sense. Indeed, I am only able to speak on behalf
