Chapter 2160 - 2153: You May Be Beasts, But I Am Not

The people, including King Zhenshan, were all taken aback by Zhang Menglong’s words.

They had never encountered someone with such a fiery temper before!

If he says he’ll destroy ten cities, he’ll destroy ten cities. Even if you stand before him hoping to negotiate and de-escalate the conflict by adopting a low posture, he won’t give you the slightest chance to back down!

"Zhang Menglong, you’ve already destroyed two cities; surely your anger has subsided by now?" King Zhenshan no longer had the patience, "You’ve killed two of my military leaders; let’s both take a step back, as this was sparked by the cancellation of the marriage."

"Yes, the cancellation triggered it, but you could have handled it better rather than resorting to murder at the slightest provocation," Zhang Menglong became increasingly angry, "Even if there was a mistake, why didn’t you target the Royal Family? What connection do ordinary people in those cities have to it? What did they do wrong? Why should I forgive you on their behalf?"

"Zhang Menglong, they only killed some ordinary people..."

"Enough!" Upon hearing this, Zhang Menglong had no desire to continue listening. "Do you think because you’re a Transcender that your life is more valuable than others? Do these ordinary people not deserve human rights? Can their lives be slaughtered at will?"

Zhang Menglong sneered, "You still don’t have any sense of introspection. If that’s the case, there’s nothing more to discuss!"

Zhang Menglong’s aura had peaked, and the energy in his palms was on the verge of bursting forth.

"Stop him!" King Zhenshan felt the terrifying power; if this move were unleashed, it would only take a few minutes to destroy the entire Fortress City of Dale.

As Zhang Menglong was accumulating energy, dispersing much of his power and focus, they might have a chance to defeat him.

Six military leaders immediately dispersed, charging toward Zhang Menglong from various angles. They knew well that two companions had already died at Zhang Menglong’s hands, so they must fight without holding back, fully committing to killing Zhang Menglong!

"Hmph!" Zhang Menglong coldly snorted, then an electric light wrapped around him, astonishingly producing six identical clones from his body.

"What kind of Transcendence Technique is this??"

King Zhenshan and his team were utterly shocked. Their equipment had numerous functions, including detecting a target’s energy and life characteristics, which was the most basic function.

Yet their detectors showed that each Zhang Menglong here was real, even their energy levels were almost identical!

They had seen many Transcendence Techniques that could create multiple clones, but these usually produced false bodies, at most energy conglomerates possessing only 10% of the main body’s energy.

But this wasn’t even cloning; this was straightforward replication!

Six Zhang Menglongs charged out like wild beasts, reaching the military leaders with lightning speed. Even when their pupils widened and their bodies had yet to react, Zhang Menglong’s fist was already before their eyes.

"Boom!" The six were blown away in different directions, electric arcs flashing as the six clones reappeared along their trajectories, brutally kicking them to the ground.

"Boom!" A thick cloud of dust rose from the earth as Zhang Menglong’s six clones vanished, and the aura of King Zhenshan’s six military leaders waned rapidly to less than one-third of normal.

In just two moves, they had almost lost all combat ability!

He looked at Zhang Menglong, who stared back with deadly intent that even slowed the flow of energy in his body.

At this point, Zhang Menglong’s energy had been fully accumulated. He was like the center of a firework, emitting countless colorful sparks that blossomed upon the ground.

This city, regarded as the shield on the western side of the Qinglan Empire, became ruins within a mere minute, and the vast city walls were riddled with breaches.

The lurking Warcraft and Spiritual Beasts in the depths of the mountain range noticed the direction of the explosive sound; possessing intelligence, they knew the opportunity to seize land from the Qinglan Kingdom had arrived.

Perhaps soon, the overwhelming armies of Warcraft and Spiritual Beasts would surge like waves. If Qinglan Kingdom had no counterstrategy, not only Dale Fortress City but the entire Qinglan Kingdom could become rubble.

"What have you done!" King Zhenshan clenched his fists, glaring at Zhang Menglong.

"Are you blind?" Zhang Menglong shrugged, "Can’t you see what I’ve done? Do you want me to get you some glasses?"

"This Fortress City of Dale was crucial to the Qinglan Kingdom. Do you realize the disaster and severe loss your destruction will bring us?" King Zhenshan roared.

"I don’t belong to your Qinglan Kingdom," Zhang Menglong shrugged, "Your disaster and loss mean nothing to me. If you’re unhappy, why not capture me!"

Finished speaking, Zhang Menglong ignored him and continued to examine the map, identifying his next target.

"When will you be satisfied? Three cities already, isn’t that enough for your anger?"

"No," Zhang Menglong said dismissively, "I mentioned ten cities, not one less!"

Suddenly, Zhang Menglong excitedly exclaimed, "This Fortress City of Dale on the mountain is meant to resist the Beast Clan in the forest, so Hanmeng City should be for resisting the sea’s Warcraft and Spiritual Beasts, right?"

After Zhang Menglong said this, King Zhenshan’s face turned pale.

Hanmeng City might not be as significant as Dale Fortress City due to its location by a mere river branching from the sea, hardly a major point, but even this waterway harbored many sea beasts. If something happened to this city, the surrounding dozen cities would also be in danger.

"Enough, enough!" King Zhenshan screamed hysterically, "What do you want? Name your terms."

"I have no terms," Zhang Menglong was already insistent, "Everyone must take responsibility for their actions and words. Instead of nagging me, why not spend more time evacuating the city’s residents? You might be beasts, but I’m not; I don’t have a hobby of killing people."

King Zhenshan dared not confront Zhang Menglong. He felt the terrifying power within this First Grade Transcender. Approaching would mean severe injury, and he valued his life. He wasn’t confident that Zhang Menglong wouldn’t be lethal.

"Hmph! Coward!" Zhang Menglong saw King Zhenshan’s hesitation and headed toward his destination.

By this time, a few military members crawled out from the rubble, their injuries unclear. None under King Zhenshan could stop Zhang Menglong.

"Master, what should we do now? Are we to let him continue his rampage?"

"Inform His Majesty," King Zhenshan said helplessly, "Only Qinglan Kingdom’s Royal Family might prevent this disaster!"
