He and the Ol’ Amos of Heaven’s Vault Continent were one and the same and shared a common memory, so he naturally recognized Meng Lei. However, it was exactly because of this same reason that he couldn’t help but be astounded.
Heaven’s Vault Continent was millions of kilometers far away from the Light Continent. On top of that, the boundless Endless Oceans even separated the two. Even true gods could forget about crossing it!
Meng Lei, who was supposed to be in Heaven’s Vault Continent, had actually shown up here. How did he manage to make his way here?
“It’s been a while, Ol’ President!”
Meng Lei’s eyes reddened slightly as he said, “I had thought that I would never get to see you ever again after our farewell the other time. Never would I have thought that you’re actually still alive. Thank the heavens! Thank the heavens!”
“Why are you here, Meng Lei?”
Ol’ Amos was also very agitated.
“It’s a long story!”
Meng Lei took a deep breath. Then, an icy glint flashed across his eyes as he said, “Give me a moment, Ol’ President. We’ll talk in detail after I drive those four stinky worms away!”
“What are you planning on doing, Meng Lei?”
Shocked, Ol’ Amos said, “They are the Light Church’s Red-Cloaked Archbishops. Every one of them is a pinnacle-level half-deity. Moreover, they have Angel’s Blade, the gods-slaying sword, with them. You aren’t their match...”
“Pinnacle-level half-deities?”
Meng Lei came right up to the four Red-Cloaked Archbishops with a flash. His voice was icy-cold like never-melting ice as he said, “The audacity of you to besiege Ol’ President! All of you should die for that!”
As he couldn’t judge how strong Meng Lei was, Archbishop Chicas didn’t recklessly attack. Instead, he warned gravely, “Sir, I don’t know who you are, but these are the Light Church’s matters. I hope you can refrain from interfering. Otherwise...”
“The Light Church? Hmph!”
Meng Lei sneered, “Who does the Light Church think they are? That woman, the Goddess of Light, won’t be able to alter your fates even if she personally shows up today!”
“How dare you blaspheme our noble Lord!”
Archbishop Chicas’ expression changed, and he barked sternly, “You heretic! No matter who you may be, you should die for being so audacious as to blaspheme our Lord!
“Cleave, Angel’s Blade!”
“Look out, Meng Lei!”
Chapter 285: With A Snap Of Fingers, I’m Not Really A Deity
The pure, holy Angel’s Blade sliced through the air and appeared above Meng Lei’s head as if it had teleported there. It went straight down for Meng Lei’s head.
“Die, heretic!”
Archbishop Chicas sneered as if he had already seen the scene where Meng Lei was chopped into halves and blood splattered everywhere. He was confident with his Angel’s Blade.
“Look out, Meng Lei!”
Ol’ Amos shouted his reminder, but Meng Lei did not seem concerned. He even turned his head and smiled at Ol’ Amos. “No worries, Ol’ Amos.”
“Meng Lei!”
Looking at the situation, Ol’ Amos was scared out of his wits.
No worries? How can I not worry at all?
A moment later, he witnessed an unforgettable scene. Meng Lei extended two fingers, and Angel’s Blade became stuck in between as it stopped dead.
On the other hand, Meng Lei’s fingers were perfectly fine—it was neither severed nor bleeding, as if it was clipping chopsticks instead of Angel’s Blade.
“This, this...”
Ol’ Amos gasped; his eyes almost popped out in disbelief. Others may not know Meng Lei well, but how could he not know him well enough?
He had been with Meng Lei all along until his divine incarnation died and lost contact.
At the very most, they had not met for less than three years. What could be done in three years?
Only enough to take a nap!
How much could Meng Lei progress in such a short time? Breaking through half-deity would already be an unprecedented feat.
But the truth was?
Catching Angel’s Blade barehanded was completely beyond his imagination. Just what kind of combat strength was that?
“Im-Impossible! It’s impossible!”
Archbishop Chicas and the rest were equally shocked. Angel’s Blade was a divine weapon that could kill true gods. How could it be caught just like that?
“An illusion! This must be an illusion!”
The four Red-Cloaked Archbishops could not accept this!
“Angel’s Blade? It’s nothing more!”
Meng Lei applied a little more force, and a snap was heard. Angel’s Blade glowing in pure, holy light, snapped and broke into two pieces!
“The Angel’s Blade... broke?”
The four Red-Cloaked Archbishops were dazed as their minds went blank.
Ol’ Amos came back to his senses earlier than the rest. “It’s frightening! What happened to this kid in these three years that made him progress to such a level?”
“I don’t care whether you’re the Light Church or the God of Light, anyone that dares to harm Ol’ President deserves to die!”
Meng Lei shook his wrist, and half of the Angel’s Blade transformed into a stream of light as it shot toward one of the Red-Cloaked Archbishops.
Splurt!
Without any surprise, the half blade pierced through this Archbishop’s head, shot out of the head’s back, and carried on flying forward under inertia.
This Archbishop stiffened, and his eyes were widened, indicating that he hadn’t died in peace.
How could he have imagined that a great Red-Cloaked Archbishop of the Light Church, a person with millions under him, could die in such circumstances?
He could not accept dying like this!
“Kurt!”
Archbishop Chicas and the other two widened their eyes to the point of splitting as they glared at Meng Lei furiously. “You damned heretic! How dare you to murder our Light Church’s Red-Cloaked Archbishop!”
“You’re dead meat! No matter who you are and what your background is, even if we have to soar into the heavens or burrow into the ground, the Light Church will end you for sure!”
“Is
