Chapter 281 Meeting of the Two Juggernauts

Chapter 281 Meeting of the Two Juggernauts

Emperor Litch has a great trust on the speed on his current ride, although he did not expect that Lingo would be this fast.

Just a few minutes after they left the Green Moon, Emperor Litch already found himself staring at the entirety of the Red Moon.

Just like the Green Moon, the Red Moon did not look like a normal moon at all.

Its surface, which was as red as blood, was enough to make Emperor Litch pay attention to it. He even paused to admire the Red Moon, as he felt his blood pumping just by looking at it.

"Hmm... what a malevolent aura this moon has..." The Emperor muttered as he took a deep breath. His eyes then twinkled as a mischievous expression appeared on his face. "Hehehehe, just the thought of making this place mine is making me so excited already!"

Upon seeing the Red Moon, the Emperor could only smile excitedly as he stared at it, as he felt enthusiastic from the prospect of conquering it.

"Good job my ride. You brought me to my next target." Emperor Litch declared proudly as he stopped himself from admiring the Red Moon. "For this virtuous deed that you have done, I shall see to it that you will receive a reward from me later."

"I AM HONRED BY THAT, MILORD"

"Hmph, you really should be honored by it. A reward from the Emperor himself? Not anyone can just receive it!" Emperor Litch said as he crossed his arms. "Actually, you should be crying happily now!"

"MILORD, I WILL BE REALLY MOVED TO TEARS WITH YOUR KINDNESS, BUT I CAN’T CRY NOW. MY EYES... ARE NOT WET YET."

"Let’s pretend that you did not say that."

"UM YES, LET’S FORGET ABOUT THAT MILORD."

"..." As he did his best to ignore Lingo’s flimsy excuse, Emperor Litch craned his neck until he was looking behind him.

His face then wore an approving expression as his eyes saw something.

"Impressive..."

Just behind Lingo and Emperor Litch, the green giant Peina could be seen, with him following Lingo closely.

On top of his body were Noelle, Ray, Vera, and all the Devourers who clung on Peina for dear life, as Peina was currently streaking through space too.

"Lingo, as you can see, Peina and my new subordinates had caught up to us already." The Emperor said as he stared at the decelerating Green Comet. "Hmm, for them to catch up to us is definitely impressive..."

"MILORD, IN TERMS OF SPEED, PEINA WAS DEFINTILELY BETTER THAN ME." Lingo replied as he looked back behind him. "EVEN IF I HAD THE LEAD, IT IS INEVITABLE FOR PEINA TO CATCH UP TO ME."

"So that green guy is faster than you? Interesting..."

"BUT MILORD, I AM STILL MORE POWERFUL THAN HIM. I CAN ASSURE YOU-"

"Ssh, sh, sh..." Emperor Litch muttered as he raised his index finger. "We can talk about the comparisons between you and Peina on another time. But for now, we must deal with the important stuff first...."

As he said these words, Emperor’s Litch’s eyes stared directly at a spot on the surface of the Red Moon.

There, at that spot, was a massive structure that managed to catch Emperor Litch’s attention.

The structure in question was a massive tower, whose whole body was covered with red.

As he stared at this tower, Emperor Litch’s eyes started to twitch, as he felt threatened by the tower.

"Wait, someone as glorious as me feels threatened by that tower? Hmm, that tower must be something special..." Emperor LIich thought to himself as he cupped his chin.

"..." His eyes then narrowed as he realized that the Red Moon was not actually empty at all.

Lingo, who was engrossed to prove himself earlier, let out a surprised shout as he saw the structure that caught the Emperor’s eyes.

"MILORD! THIS IS BAD NEWS!" Lingo shouted out in fear as he stared at the tower with panic. "MILORD, IF MY GUESS WAS RIGHT, THAT TOWER RIGHT THERE... IS SOMETHING THAT COULD POSSIBLY KILL US!"

"Lingo, wha-" Before the Emperor could reassure Lingo, the blue giant continued talking, as if he was trying his best to convince the Emperor about something.

"MILORD, ACCORDING TO WHAT I CAN REMEMBER, THAT RED TOWER COULD BE MOST LIKELY A DEMONIC TOWER!" Lingo said as he breathing started to hasten. "MILORD, I DO NOT KNOW WHY A WEAPON OF A DEMONIC LEADER IS HERE IN THIS PLACE, BUT ITS PRESENCE HERE MEANS THAT THE RED MOON COULD BE MOST LIKELY OWNED BY A DEMONIC LEADER! MILORD, IF WE DARE TO ATTACK THIS PLACE, THAT DEMONIC LEADER MIGHT ATTACK US!"

"Ohohoho Lingo, don’t tell me that you are scared now?" Even with the apparent fear on Lingo’s eyes and his explanation, Emperor Litch seemed to be unfazed as he only let out a small smile. "You’ve seen the things that I have done already, and yet you still doubt me now? Where is your loyalty to me?"

"MILORD, I AM NOT BEING UNLOYAL, I JUST WANT TO-"

"Shut your mouth. You are just my ride, you blue freak." Emperor Litch’s eyes, which were filled with warmth before, drastically changed as they became frosty. His face turned harsh as his posture became aggressive, while his polite and jovial attitude disappeared too, as a tyrannical and domineering aura emanated out of his body.

"!!!"

Everyone who saw the change that just happened with the Emperor could only stare at him in shock, as they did not expect something like this to happen!

"Don’t you dare overstep the limits of your status. You just exist to be my steed." Emperor Litch said as his frosty glare brought its full impact on the cowering Lingo. "Don’t you dare lecture me about fighting others! Do you understand that?"

"YES, YES MILORD, I UNDERSTAND THAT." Under the frightening gaze by Emperor Litch, Lingo was left with no choice but to immediately submit to his words.

As for Peina and his passengers, all of them started to tremble in fear as they felt terrified with the Emperor and his new mannerisms.

"Well, as long as you understand my thoughts, you will all be accepted by me." Emperor Litch said as his warm personality suddenly returned, making his cold demeanor earlier look like an afterimage. "I assume that you all have the capabilities to do that, right?"

"WE WILL DO OUR BEST TO UNDERSTAND YOU, MILORD."

"..."

Seemingly uninterested with what Lingo just said, the Emperor let out a yawn as he looked back at the Red Moon with interest in his eyes as he continued talking.

"Interesting... I can feel the presence of numerous people here at the Red Moon, yet I only feel threatened by the person inside that tower. This is intriguing..." Emperor Litch muttered as another smile appeared on his face.

"Boom!"

All of a sudden, a powerful aura came radiating out of Emperor Litch’s body.

Lingo, Peina, and all of his passengers could only stare at this powerful aura in awe as they felt the sudden urge to kneel and prostrate in front of Emperor Litch.

"...."

This powerful aura however was not just focused on Emperor Litch’s subject alone.

This powerful aura continued to spread outwards, with some parts of it barreling towards the Red Moon.

A few seconds later, and the Demonic Tower was hit by this powerful aura too.

At the instant that this happened, a malevolent aura burst out of the Demonic Tower.

"Boom!"

The whole Demonic Tower then started to shudder as its doors opened, revealing a red, demon-like being strolling out of the doors confidently.

The malevolent aura then increased at the appearance of this demon, making Emperor Litch look at the demon with both respect and excitement.

There was no doubt that the malevolent aura came out of the demon, making him appear as an extremely dangerous being.

The demon, who sensed Emperor Litch’s gaze on him, gave the Emperor a smirk as he started to talk.

"So, a Conqueror has come to see me." The demon said as he tilted his head at the Emperor’s direction. "It is rare to find someone like you these days, especially a Human Conqueror. It makes me feel happy witnessing history right here."

The demon’s voice sounded seductive and sly, making those who hear it feel suspicious of the demon.

Emperor Litch, who perfectly heard what he demon said, let out a hearty laughter as he looked at the demon with approval.

"I do not know what you mean by that Conqueror, but I assume that being called a Conqueror in your homeland is a great honor, yes?"

"In my homeland, there were a lot of titles being given around." The demon replied as he gave the Emperor a sly smile. "One of those titles was the Conqueror, and I assure you, the title of the Conqueror was as rare as qilin feathers. As for those who get that title, they ussualy don’t get to enjoy that title for long. You know, because they die quickly from too much conquering..."

"..."

From the way that the demon conversed with Emperor Litch, it sounded like he was trying to curry favor with him, although one can sense some kind of hidden ill intent in his words.

It may be faint, but some malice was indeed present on the demon’s words.

The Emperor, with all of his experiences, obviously has noticed this ill intent too.

But instead of backing out from something like this, the Emperor only gave the demon a smile as he said,

"Well, I want to talk more about this Conqueror Title. You wouldn’t mind conversing with me face-to-face, right?"

After saying these words, Emperor Litch shocked everyone as he suddenly leapt off from Lingo’s head.

His jump was graceful, making it look like he had spent years practicing his jumping skills.

"Wooosh..." With the gravitational pull from the Red Moon, Emperor Litch started to accelerate like a normal object.

He literally dropped like a rock as he entered the Red Moon’s atmosphere.

"MILORD!"

Emperor Litch ignored Lingo’s surprised shout as he used Vessel 969’s ability to safely enter the atmosphere of the Red Moon.

As he descended towards the Red Moon, Emperor LItch’s eyes narrowed as he intently observed more and more details at the Red Moon’s surface.

"..."

The first thing that the Emperor saw were numerous impact craters, which created a tryptophobic image all around the Red Moon.

His eyes then flitted at the base of the Demonic Tower, taking note of the similarity between the sizes of the impact craters and the base of the Demonic Tower.

The Emperor then saw a cluster of people at the left corner of his eyes, which he identified as the Celestials.

Further observations allowed the Emperor to see four more figures that are converged at another location.

One of these figures was a large as Lingo, although this figure’s body was mutilated beyond recognition. The Emperor however could sense that this figure was still alive even with all the damage that it received.

Nestled inside this figure’s embrace was a kimono-wearing woman, whose whole body was littered with injuries too.

Right now, this woman was gazing at Emperor Litch intently, as if she was trying to imprint his appearance on her brain.

The last two figures were a female teenager and a young boy, who were both uninjured. But their faces were filled with distress, which made it apparent that they just underwent something stressful.

"..."

After observing these two, Emperor Litch looked back at the mutilated giant as he noticed something interesting on it.

There, at the back of the mutilated giant, Emperor Litch saw a massive depression, which looked eerily similar to the impact craters all around them.

"Interesting..." The Emperor’s mind began to work furiously as he pieced together everything that he just saw.

After a few seconds of staring blankly into the space, Emperor Litch shook his head as he turned his gaze towards the Demon.

"I thought that I will be the only interesting person in this place. But as it turns out, you are interesting too." Emperor Litch said to the Demon as he slowly flew towards him. "All of these damages that I just saw, you were the one who did this, right?"

"So what if I am? What are you going to do about it, EMPEROR?" The demon replied as quickly as ever, but this time around, the respect in his voice was gone.

Right now, the demon sounded extremely cocky as his latest words made it sound like he was mocking Emperor Litch.

"Well, I wanted to continue my Conquest starting from this place. Consider it... my fresh start." Emperor Litch replied as he tilted his head. "But for my Conquest to be successful, I need to obtain numerous capable commanders."

"..."

Seeing that you are extremely skilled, I am highly tempted to make you follow me. Are you interested on following me?" Emperor Litch said as he gave the Demon a light smile. "I assure you that it will be the greatest honor of your life if you decided to follow me!"

"Hmph, as expected, a Conqueror like you not only wanted to conquer places. You also want to conquer people. How typical of you." The demon replied as he bared his sharp teeth.

"Hmph, as if someone like you can understand the thoughts of someone like me." Emperor Litch replied as he suddenly pointed his finger at the demon. "At the first moment that I saw you, I already felt your killing intent towards me. It’s so potent, that I could only shake my head at your boldness!"

"Well, who cares if you know that I want to kill you? Just seeing your face alone is enough to piss every one off!" The demon replied as his Demonic Tower began to tremble.

"And there we have it. You just showed your true colors. A dirty swine who knows nothing about respect." Emperor Litch replied as the space around him began to tremble. "Do you know what I do with people like you? I discipline them properly!"

"Discipline my ass. If you want to fight, then fight!" The demon replied as the malevolent aura around him began to increase. "Or are you telling me, that you, an Emperor, is afraid to fight me?"

"Hmph, mark those heretic words of yours. I shall make you regret saying all of that!"

"SHWOOSH!"

Once they said these words, the demon and Emperor Litch let out their shouts as both of them suddenly disappeared!

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

Booming sounds then filled the air as two powerful auras collided with each other numerous times.

Lingo and everyone else could only stare blankly as they were rendered confused with what had just happened.

"Boom!"

Moments later, and the confusion on everyone’s faces turned into shock, as they saw a massive crack spreading throughout the whole Red Moon!

They tried to do something about this crack, but it was already too late for them.

"Rumble..."

The whole Red Moon started to tremble, and a few seconds later, a ripping sound filled everyone’s ears as the Red Moon’s body split into two!
