Ultragene Warlord

and his majesty is extremely enraged.
Now that you ’ve also killed four-fifths of his army, his anger will surely reach a breaking point.
If he takes to the battlefield himself, all of you will surely perish. ”

Li Feng couldn ’t help but laugh, prompting everyone else to do so as well.
He hurriedly waved his hands.
”Don ’t worry, keep going, I just can ’t bear it any longer, haha! ”

The commander of the army snorted in displeasure.
”You might be able to laugh now, but once his majesty pays you a visit himself, I assure you, you won ’t ever laugh a day again in your life.
If you don ’t want Renhuang to be destroyed, follow my advice.
Perhaps his majesty will show clemency and let go of some of you. ”

Sun Mengmeng couldn ’t watch him prattle any longer.
”Actually, we ’ve already encountered this monarch of yours. ”

”What?! ” The commander ’s eyes bulged, unable to believe what he had heard.

Li Feng spread his arms helplessly.
”He did pay us a visit, and then he died. ”

”No, that ’s impossible! His majesty is the closest the sura have to an asura! ”

Li Feng explained, ”It truly was an astounding battle, but your ruler was the one who perished.
The man he faced in battle is sitting right before you! ”

Zhang Lie smirked at the fallen commander.
”Do you have any more interesting information for me? ”

The commander furiously struggled against his bonds as he roared, ”That ’s impossible! You have to be lying to me! It ’s useless—no matter your lies, his majesty will still appear before you all! Just you wait.
You ’re all going to die! ”

With a snap of his fingers, Zhang Lie made the commander ’s body explode like a rotten tomato.

Sun Mengmeng asked, ”Should we have killed him just like that? ”

Li Feng nodded.
”We didn ’t manage to get any useful information out of him, after all. ”

Zhang Lie shook his head.
”There ’s no reason to keep someone as delusional as him alive.
We ’ll get more information just by heading toward the empire of stars. ”

After a night ’s rest, the forces of Renhuang set off once again.

They reached the border of the empire of stars easily, only to find it completely unguarded.
The cities that they passed through were stranger than the last, each filled with heaps upon heaps of yellow sand, without any sura left alive.
The cities all seemed to have become ruins overnight.

Zhang Lie and the others initially thought that this was some strategy or another that the empire of stars had employed, but even after a few days, they couldn ’t detect anything amiss.

There were still quite a few sura present in villages and in the mountains, and there were some cities which still had living sura, but the majority seemed to have been wiped out.

Zhang Lie couldn ’t help but feel an eerie premonition.
”Could it be… ”

Sun Mengmeng asked curiously, ”Captain, do you know just what happened to the empire of stars? ”

This was the question that Zhang Lie had been considering over the last few days.

”More or less. ”

Zhang Lie captured and extracted the memories of a sura guard via his moonlight wyrm, which allowed him to understand roughly what had happened.
Before the cataclysm, the skies above the empire of stars had turned blood-red, and a beam of light had shot out of the capital. 

In that case, the answer had to lie within the capital.

Renhuang ’s forces made their way toward and inside the capital without any obstacles whatsoever, and they didn ’t meet a single sura along the way.
It was impossible that the capital of a sura empire could be so empty; any such capital was at least populated by a million sura.

A migration of a million sura would take at least a few weeks to plan and execute, and it was impossible for this event to happen so rapidly.
Nevertheless, the proof of that impossibility was right before their eyes…
