“Oh dear, things have become rather difficult now.”
Meng Lei glanced at the Three-Headed Hell Empress and then at the Fallen Emperor. Awfully troubled, he said, “Both of you are willing to submit, but who exactly should I pick?”
“Pick me! Sir, pick me!”
The Fallen Emperor pleaded, “I’m a Fallen Angel, so I have great strength. On top of that, I’ll also be absolutely loyal to you. I will do exactly as you say and will never defy your orders! Your will is my direction in life itself—”
“Alec, you dirty, evil, and cunning Fallen Angel! Is there anyone who isn’t aware that Fallen Angels like you are the most adept in lying and going against their word?”
The Three-Headed Hell Empress broke into a rant. “When it comes to loyalty, no one is more loyal than us canines! Sir, I’m a Cerberus. Once I acknowledge someone as my master, I’ll never go against my word for life!
“Besides, Alec, that bastard, even stomped on your face just now, Sir. That’s so treacherous of him! Sir, you’d better just pick me...”
Chapter 347: Boundless Great Beasts, The Titans
In the end, Meng Lei chose to accept the Three-Headed Hell Empress while he finished off the Fallen Emperor.
In this universe, no one had survived after kicking Meng Lei’s face!
“This guy is pretty wealthy!”
Meng Lei checked the spatial ring left behind by the Fallen Emperor, and he was satisfied with the treasures within.
After that, he looked at the Three-Headed Hell Empress and said, “Give me your spatial ring.”
“Yes, Master!”
The Three-Headed Hell Empress was reluctant, but she still gave away her spatial ring immediately.
Meng Lei took everything inside...
After a round of collection, Meng Lei returned the spatial ring to the Three-Headed Hell Empress. She checked the ring with her divine cognition and almost coughed up blood as the ring was almost empty.
That was too harsh!
He only left a few Demonic Crystals, the rest all gone—that was what an evil tyrant would do!
“This bastard!”
The Three-Headed Hell Empress felt that her heart was bleeding. She wished that she could smash Meng Lei with a hammer to vent her anger.
Yet, she knew that she could not do so since Meng Lei controlled her divine spirit origin energy. Thus, there was only one word if she dared to provoke him—death!
“You’re scolding me?”
Meng Lei had a ghostly smile.
“N-no!” The Three-Headed Hell Empress trembled in fear and shook her head repeatedly in denial.
“This is my first and final warning.” Meng Lei swept a glance at her. “Carry on, bring me the Dark Hell Demonic Kingdom’s, Fallen Kingdom’s, and your Three-Headed Hell Kingdom’s treasury to me. Remember, if you dare to steal any treasure, I’ll make you understand why flowers are red[1]!”
“Yes, Master!”
The Three-Headed Hell Empress quivered and went to execute the order.
“To think the great Three-Headed Hell Empress would actually end up like this. That’s just sad.” Dodola watched the Three-Headed Hell Empress’ back and sighed.
“In a world where the strong are revered, anything can happen. We’ll just get used to it.”
Meng Lei found a place to sit down where he would wait for the Dark Canopy of The Heavens to start while destroying the divine spirits of mid-level Great Demon Gods to earn more Divinity Crystals in the meantime.
“Ding! 1 Ice Great Demon God killed. 6,300,000 Divinity Crystals gained!”
“Ding! 1 Cerberus killed. 6,250,000 Divinity Crystals gained!”
“...”
The system’s notification sounds kept ringing as divine spirits were getting destroyed one by one within each demonic cores, while Meng Lei’s wealth continued to skyrocket. While Meng Lei destroyed the last of the 300 divine spirits, something happened at the cliff in front.
Buzz...
Dark beams of light radiated from the middle of the cliff. A 100-feet tall, 100-feet wide black portal appeared as it seemed like a stage’s curtain.
“The Dark Canopy of The Heavens has opened!”
Meng Lei perked up and looked toward the portal in the middle of the cliff. At the same time, a commotion erupted among the onlooking demons.
“It’s open!”
“The Dark Canopy of The Heavens has finally opened!”
“Who can enter this time?”
“Every mid-level Great Demon God is dead. Even among the Dark Hell Demonic Emperor, the Fallen Emperor, and the Three-Headed Hell Empress, two died while one submitted. So the one who can enter this time...”
“This is the Dark Canopy of The Heavens!”
Dodola appeared on Meng Lei’s shoulder, its eyes shining brightly. That was the existential plane the Boundless King had refined before!
Just the Boundless King itself was enough for Dodola to look forward to the trip.
“Dodola, are you sure the Boundless Plane doesn’t have a master?” Meng Lei contained his excitement and confirmed again.
“I’m not too sure, but the possibility is quite high.” Dodola smiled. “Trust me. My instincts are normally accurate!”
“What if it’s not accurate this time? Wouldn’t that force me into a precarious situation?” Meng Lei rolled his eyes.
Why would I trust instincts for such an important matter when my life might be at stake?
It’s way too naive!
“Don’t worry! If the Boundless Plane has a master, I can guarantee your safety. You might have forgotten that I knew how to use the Great World-Breaching Transfer Technique!”
Dodola smiled faintly. “At most, we escape immediately. What can the master of an existential plane do to us?”
“How could your Great World-Breaching Transfer Technique work and help us escape the imprisonment of a mid-end Power of Existential Plane?”
Meng Lei was quite astonished.
“So you think the name ‘World-Breaching’ is a joke?” Dodola snorted. “Other than the power of Chief Gods, the mid-end Power of Existential Plane is useless against the Great World-Breaching Transfer Technique!”
“Alright,
