Hail the King

The southeast region of the Capital was initially quiet, but a fire-colored glare shined upon it. As if all the buildings in that region were lit on fire, the dark sky turned bright, and it looked like daytime.

A powerful energy slowly dispersed into the area and enveloped the entire St. Petersburg.

A real master finally appeared.

“It is…… That old monster……”

“It is true…… The rumor is true. The Imperial Senate has decided to stand with the Crown Prince. Now, no one can rival with Arshavin His Highness!”

“Humph! That old man finally couldn’t endure the seclusion anymore! He wants to come out and play!”

“The King of Chambord is now in danger! Perhaps his performance tonight ends here. This old monster isn’t an ordinary master. Within the empire, only Emperor Yassin His Majesty could suppress this old monster at his prime. Right now, Emperor Yassin His Majesty is on the decline…… This old man finally couldn’t hold himself and wants to get involved?”

“Hahaha! This time, the King of Chambord is done! He is dead! I want to see how long he can drag this out. Hahaha! He deserves it! I couldn’t wait to see the King of Chambord getting crushed!”

As soon as that orange warrior energy flame appeared, the people who were in the area were all stunned.

Most of the influential figures in St. Petersburg knew about the existence of this old monster who lived like a hermit, and they knew how terrifying he was. With their eyes wide open, they stared at the situation that was taking a drastic turn in the sky and wondered. This battle could potentially affect the division of power in the empire for the next tens to even hundreds of years!

The people who didn’t know what was going on heard about this terrifying master who suddenly appeared from other people’s murmurs, and they gasped in shock.

A light smile appeared on Arshavin’s face, but the concerned expression didn’t disappear. He was still staring at the direction of that magnificent royal palace in the middle of St. Petersburg as if he was hoping for something.

However, many influential figures in the area looked at him differently now. None of them expected Arshavin to have pulled that old monster to his side already.

Second Prince Dominguez still had Oka, the disabled little dog, in his arms, and his beautiful eyes that could make almost all women in the Capital go crazy were squinted. His face was emotionless, and it felt like everything that was happening was not connected to him at all.

Beside him, Paris and Granello both frowned.

Standing on the throne in the sky, Fei didn’t look afraid at all.

This master of the Imperial Senate who suddenly appeared didn’t say anything at all. As soon as he soared into the sky, he unleashed his most powerful attack. He left no room for negotiations and arbitrations, and it was clear that he wanted to kill Fei directly in the eyes of tens of thousands of people.

Whoosh!

[The Throne of Chaos] shivered in the air. As the energy flames of that mysterious master were about to envelop him, Fei suddenly disappeared from where he was and appeared 100 meters away.

“Huh?” a hoarse voice sounded in a surprised tone.

The orange energy flame instantly contracted before dispersing into the area, creating an even brighter light. Then, an old man appeared after the light dimmed down. This man looked like he was in his fifties, and his hair was grey and messy. His small eyes were sunk into his face, and his eyes looked a bit red. With a cold expression, he looked quite cruel.

“Who are you?” Fei glanced at him and instantly detected his strength; it was about level 1 to level 2 low-tier Full Moon.

He didn’t expect Zenit to have such a powerful hermit, but this person didn’t leave him a good impression. That chilly murderous spirit and bloody sensation on this person were even more intense compared with that red-robbed ugly-faced Trace, and it was clear that he was a vicious character who killed many people.

After hearing Fei’s question, this old man giggled and didn’t respond right away. He looked at [The Throne of Chaos] under Fei’s feet greedily and said, “Ok, not bad. It looks like this throne is a good item; it helped you to escape from my strike. Here is a deal for you. If you give this throne to me today, I won’t kill you. I will just break your arms and legs and destroy your warrior energy, but I will let go of your Chambord Kingdom. What do you say?”

“Bug! Since you know my background, then hand over your throne! Do you want to die?” This vicious old man laughed, and he looked like a skeleton with a layer of human skin on top, gloomy and scary.

“You want this throne?”

“Hehe, yeah. Hand it over!”

“I have a question. Your strength is top-tier at the Zenit Empire. When our Martial Saint Krasic was being killed by the assassins from the other three empires, why didn’t you come out and help?” Fei asked earnestly; this was the first real conversation between them.

“You mean that idiot Krasic? It doesn’t matter if he is dead or not. He is the top warrior in the eyes of ordinary people, but he is a poor chess piece who couldn’t even control his own fate in my eyes. He is stupid like a pig. Hehe, his death was pitiful yet meaningless. Actually, it is better now that idiot is dead!” this old man said as he waved his hand carelessly.

The king lowered his head and was silent for a few seconds.

After a few seconds passed by, he looked up, stared at this old monster who was feared by many, and said, “F*ck you! Dumb*ss!”

“What did you say to me?” That old man was surprised, and he wasn’t able to react in time. He never thought that this little king who was weaker than him in strength dared to swear at him.

“I Said That You Are A Dumb*ss!”

After Fei repeated what he said and emphasized each word, he grasped his fists.

Whoosh! A silver energy flashed by, and the war hammer [Immortal King’s Stone Crusher] appeared in his hands.

[The Throne of Chaos] lightly shivered under Fei’s feet and moved him forward, placing him only about one meter away from this old man.

Boom!!!!!!!!!!

The war hammer was swung mercilessly.

As if he was trying to get rid of a fly, Fei smashed the hammer at this old man’s arrogant face ferociously.

Everything happened so fast.

[Immortal King’s Stone Crusher] was too powerful, and Fei was too quick.

Therefore, this old man didn’t have the time to dodge; he could only try to defend against it.

As a surprised and angry expression appeared on his face, this old man stacked his hands in front of his chest, and layers of orange energy flames came together to form several thick walls of fire. He was furious, and he was thinking about how to destroy this king viciously in the next moment.

However, crackling noises sounded. It was a sound that this old man hadn’t heard in a long time.

The walls of fire that he was very confident in got smashed apart like tofu, and it wasn’t able to stop nor delay that hammer strike at all. With the same power and speed, the hammer landed on his arms and upper body, completely unloading all the force.

Whoosh!

This old man was knocked away like a baseball. As he screamed, his body got turned into a dash of red light, and it smashed into the buildings in the southwest. This descending speed was much faster than his original ascending speed.

After that, no one was able to sense the aura of that terrifying old man anymore, and everyone around the Imperial Military Headquarters was stunned.

The people who knew a lot about this old man shivered as if they ate the wrong medicine, and the people who just learned about this old man looked at the people around them in doubts, questioning if they were telling the truth about the real power of this man.

This was the most unimaginable event of the night.

Crown Prince Arshavin looked ugly as if someone slapped him with the bottom of a shoe, and he even forgot to look in the direction of the royal palace.

Second Prince Dominguez unintentionally squeezed Oka too hard, making the latter bark.

In the same time, Paris gaped as her mind went blank.

The entire Capital fell silent.

The no. 1 master of Zenit other than the person in the royal palace got defeated, and it was very one-sided.

After seeing that old man getting smashed away, everyone thought of the same thing, “The King of Chambord is now invincible!”

“In the Capital…… No, in the empire, no one could balance out this genius who suddenly appeared. Even Crown Prince Arshavin is so inferior compared to this powerful king,” they thought.

At this moment, Fei’s voice sounded by people’s ears again, “This is a warning. Doesn’t matter who you are, don’t provoke me and don’t test my tolerance. Otherwise, be prepared to see the Grim Reaper!”
