Chapter 198: Stepping On A Black Dragon, A Tempest Colossal Dragon

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

“Either you kill me, or I’ll kill you!”

Boom!

His words were virtually a Magnitude 10.0 earthquake that shocked and enraged all the high-ranking officials, nobles, and more than 1,000 Saint Domains present.

Madness! He’s gone mad!

Everyone gasped in unison as they stared at Meng Lei as though they were looking at a lunatic.

He was but a puny little 16-year-old Saint Domain and a child that hadn’t even fully matured!

And yet he dared to utter such things in front of so many Saint Domains in the most dignified place in the empire!?

Just how outrageous was he? Just how arrogant was he? And just how foolish was he?

“How dare a child like you behave so outrageously!”

Frederick the 32nd crushed the throne with a strike of his palm as he roared furiously, “Where are the golden-armored guards?! Why haven’t you arrested him? What are you waiting for?!”

“Yes, Your Majesty!”

The dozen or so golden-armored guards responded loudly, and then, they swarmed toward Meng Lei.

“You’d better behave!”

“Get on your knees!”

“Don’t put up a fight!”

As sentries guarding the conference hall, every one of them was only a step away from becoming a Saint Domain. With so many of them joining hands, even a Saint Domain would have to bow down to them.

Unfortunately, they were destined for tragedy this time.

Just as the golden-armored guards charged over fiercely, a strong, surging recoil force suddenly burst forth from Meng Lei.

Boom!

The wild, violent force erupted all of a sudden, instantly sending all the golden-armored guards flying backward. Blood sprayed from their mouths as they became still and motionless—all of them had actually died from the impact.

“What?”

“They’re dead?”

A huge jolt went through everyone in the hall.

“You... How dare... How dare you?!”

Frederick the 32nd looked infuriated, his visage savage-looking as he roared hysterically, “Take him down! Take him down!!”

“President Fred, so this is the great student that the Fire Dragon Magic Academy has produced!”

Someone rushed forward out of nowhere, giving President Fred a cold, icy look before glaring furiously at Meng Lei.

“You crazy fool who has lost all reason, you’ve got a lot of nerve! Give yourself up at once!”

“Who are you?” asked Meng Lei as he gazed at the black-haired elderly man with a pair of black horns in front of him.

“The academy president of Black Dragon Academy of the Black Dragon Kingdom... Angus!”

Angus ordered calmly, “You audacious and impudent maniac, get on your knees and kowtow to His Majesty and beg for forgiveness at once. Otherwise, don’t hold it against me if I show you no civility!”

“Show me no civility? How are you planning to do that?” Meng Lei flicked his fingers and stated calmly, “I’d like to have a taste of that very much!”

“How audacious!!”

Angus’ eyes widened. Rather than anger, he was pleased instead. He declared, “Since you have a death wish, kid, no-one will say anything even if I slaughter you right here and now!”

Whoosh!

Before he’d even finished speaking, Angus had already abruptly charged out, coming right up to Meng Lei in an instant.

There were no extra flourishes to his actions but just a simple and violent punch.

This single punch was more than enough.

“That guy has actually gotten ahead of me!”

The other Saint Domains who were intending to attack stopped in their tracks one by one, secretly more or less a little displeased.

Although they were dissatisfied with how Angus had acted one step faster than them, they nevertheless had to acknowledge his strength. As an old-timer Saint Domain, Angus had already made a name for himself since several hundred years ago. He possessed unfathomably great power.

In particular, he was even a pure-blooded Black Dragon and owned an incredibly strong and sturdy body. There weren’t many present who would dare claim certain victory over him. With him attacking, there wasn’t much left for the others to do anymore.

The next moment, however, everyone’s eyes widened dramatically as if they had just seen a ghost.

Meng Lei neither dodged nor evaded Angus’ attack. Instead, he casually stretched his right arm out, and then, with a light grab as though he was just catching a ping pong ball, he caught hold of President Angus’ fist.

Roar!

All the momentum, all the power, and all the raging violence—all of it dissipated into the air at this moment as if they had never once existed.

“H-how can that be?!”

Angus was shocked and horrified to the extreme.

“The Black Dragon Academy president is nothing more than just this.”

Meng Lei shook his head, and then, his right leg casually kicked forward. With a dull thud, Angus flew backward with a tragic cry like a launched cannon.

He crashed headfirst into the dragon wall1 above the emperor, blasting a hole in the savage-looking Colossal Dragon wall mural made out of gold and embedding his entire self into it.

Silence!

The whole place was filled with dead silence!

Everyone stared at Angus—who was embedded in the dragon wall—in a daze, the look in their eyes blank, vacant, and stunned.

A single strike...

He had sent President Angus flying with just a single strike...?

Among the crowd, President Fred, the Fighting Dragon Academy president, and the others exchanged looks, every one of them seeing the shock, horror, and disbelief in one another’s eyes.

“F-Fred!”

The Fighting Dragon Academy president swallowed hard as he asked, “Since when has Meng Lei possessed such strength?”

“I... I don’t know, either!”

Fred murmured to himself, an exciting range of expressions on his visage.

Roar!

With a furious roar, Angus extricated himself out of the dragon wall. With blood at the corners of his lips, he glared furiously at Meng Lei as the flames of fury burned in his eyes.

“I’ve surprisingly underestimated you just now!” Angus wiped the blood off the corners of his lips as he sneered, “But you’ve successfully angered me now, brat! Dare you go outside the hall with me?”

“Why wouldn’t I?” Meng Lei replied as he cocked his eyebrow. Then, he shot out of the grand hall first.

With a cold snort, Angus also followed after him and flew out of the hall.

“Quickly!”

“Follow after them!”

“Don’t let him get away!”

At the sight of this, everyone in the hall quickly followed them out. The moment they exited the hall, they spotted Meng Lei and Angus, who both stood proudly in mid-air and staring at each other from afar.

“Brat, I’ll admit that you possess strength far beyond the average Saint Domain’s. I’ll also admit that you’re even more of a monster than Timon Barton, who’s ranked top in history.

“But... You still have to die anyway!”

Angus let out a furious roar, his voice erupting with a loud boom like rolling thunder—he had transformed.

Roar!

An enormous Black Dragon standing at over 60-meters-tall and covered in pitch-black scales all over abruptly appeared! Its sharp claws glittered with an icy-cold gleam, and sharp teeth lined its jaws.

Pure dragon might erupted and spread to the surroundings like smoke signals of war rushing into the sky. It swept through the entire palace in an instant and spread toward all directions.

“A Black Dragon!”

“That’s a pure-blooded Black Dragon!”

“What has happened over there?”

Alarmed, all the other people in the palace looked at Angus in the sky.

“Die!”

Angus opened his mouth, and an inky, pitch-black dragon breath sprayed forth from within, instantly sweeping toward Meng Lei.

A Black Dragon’s dragon breath was a very fearsome type of acid that contained astonishing corrosion abilities. It held shocking might, and even a Saint Domain expert would be corroded into mere bones if it got onto them!

“That’s all you got?”

Meng Lei shook his head lightly. With a slight dodge, he easily evaded the Black Dragon Breath shooting toward him.

Then, he took step after step toward Angus. His movements appeared slow, but in truth, they were extremely quick. In a split second, he had reached right above Angus!

“Goodbye, President Angus!”

Meng Lei stamped his foot down lightly.

“Oh no!”

Greatly alarmed, Angus immediately wanted to flap his wings and duck. However, the thought had only just arisen in his mind when Meng Lei’s foot came lightly from afar and stepped on his head.

Boom!

A great, vast force erupted. Angus didn’t even have the time to cry out before his dragon head was blasted apart by the kick, much like a great hammer smashing into a watermelon.

Brain fluid spurted everywhere as blood sprayed all about!

Boom!

Angus’ enormous body fell through the sky and landed on the even level square, smashing a huge pit into the square.

The body was still and motionless, evidently thoroughly dead. The head, which had been blasted apart, was an exceptionally painful sight.

(ΩДΩ)!!!

(⊙o⊙)...

o((⊙_⊙))o!

Everyone was stunned and dazed!

“Angus has actually been instantly taken out by a single kick?”

“Just what kind of combat strength is that?”

“O’ Dragon God above!”

A brief moment of surprise and stunned stupefaction later, a furor went through the entire square.

As every single person stared at the ruptured dragon head and at President Angus, who had been taken out in an instant, they couldn’t help but gasp.

That was President Angus! One must know that he was an old-timer Saint Domain that had already made a name for himself several hundred years ago. Moreover, he was even a pure-blooded Black Dragon of the purest bloodline! He was pretty much already a high-level Saint Domain!

And yet... His head had been blasted apart with just a kick, and he had been killed in a second!

Just what kind of combat strength was that?

Had it been others who had killed him, it wouldn’t have been that surprising, but the key here was that the one that had taken his life was just a 16-year-old little brat!

A 16-year-old brat!

Who would believe something like that?

Who would dare to believe something like that?

And how were they supposed to believe something like that?

For a moment there, the emperor, the whole court of officials, nobles, and up to a thousand Saint Domains all stared at that figure standing calmly and quietly in the sky, their eyes filled with disbelief.

“I’ve heard something before.”

Meng Lei, who was facing everyone’s gazes that looked as if they were looking at a monster, spoke at this point.

His voice was calm and even, yet it echoed in the sky above the palace and clearly reached every corner of the palace.

“I’ve heard that brave dragon slayers don’t exist in the Dragon God Empire because all those that dared harbor designs on pure-blooded Colossal Dragons have all died.

“Since I’ve killed a Black Dragon today, does that mean that I’ve become the one and only brave dragon slayer in the Dragon God Empire?”

“A brave dragon slayer?”

The corners of everyone’s lips spasmed at his words. They were fuming mad. He was simply too arrogant and conceited.

“That evil creature! That damned evil creature!”

Frederick the 32nd was so infuriated that he was shaking with rage. Even his countenance was all contorted as he commanded, “Kill him! Kill him! I want him dead! I’m going to cut him into a million pieces and torture him to death! I want him to die a terrible death!”

“This...”

The many Saint Domains present hesitated. Meng Lei had taken only an instant to kill Angus, thereby exhibiting fearsome strength capable of instantly killing a high-level Saint Domain. Were they to attack, wouldn’t they just be sending themselves to death’s door in vain?

“President Luke, are you going to just watch as that evil creature behaves so presumptuously?!”

Frederick the 32nd bellowed furiously as he turned to President Luke and the others.

Among everyone present, President Luke was definitely the strongest of them all. Who was supposed to attack, if not him?

“I understand, Your Majesty!”

President Luke nodded slightly. With a flash of his form and an aloof look on his countenance, he came right up to Meng Lei.

“Meng Lei, not only do you possess the Fire Dragon bloodline, but you’re even a member of royalty. Yet you behave in such a perverse and insane manner, wantonly slaying a pure-blooded Dragon...”

“Alright, alright. You can skip the unnecessary crap. Even my ears are becoming callused from all superfluous rubbish.”

Meng Lei waved dismissively and interrupted President Luke, who was filled with righteous indignation. “We’ll let our skills speak for themselves.”

“How presumptuous!”

President Luke looked livid. Then, a magic staff abruptly manifested in his hand.

Buzz!

Right away, Wind Elements within a few kilometers of where they were swiftly gathered and formed a 10-meters-long cyan wind blade.

“Go, Dimensional Blade!”

With an icy snort from President Luke, the cyan wind blade sliced through the air and shot toward Meng Lei at a lightning-quick speed. It moved incredibly swiftly and was hardly visible to the naked eye!

“As expected of a Saint Domain Great Magician at their pinnacle!”

At the sight of the Dimensional Blade shooting rapidly toward him, a look of approval appeared on Meng Lei’s face. Then, he stretched out his right arm and grabbed at it in the most casual of motions.

“What’s he doing???”

“Is he taking the Dimensional Blade head-on?!”

“What a lunatic!”

“He’s a total lunatic!”
