Ultragenic Warlord

Chapter 1046: Straying from Your Path

The ice queen immediately added, "I don't believe that he's intending to absorb the two newly evolved superior worlds—but rather to ally with them!"

The solar king nodded, crying out, "I believe that Li Zongming is intending to form an alliance with the two newly evolved superior worlds to contest our alliance!"

The solar king barely believed his own words,

let alone the other kings. The lolified king of keys almost burst out in laughter at the solar king's rationale. Three newly evolved superior worlds, going against all the rest of them?

Their reserves from having been superior worlds of antiquity were no joke, and even a dozen new superior wolds would hardly threaten them. The king of keys alone could take on three hundred.

The ice queen thundered, "How malicious! This fellow's trying to tear apart the three thousand worlds, destroying the long-lasting peace and foundation that we've built up over millennia."

The ice queen's words truly sounded pained, as though she had forgotten that she and the others were the ones that had been continuously invading newly evolved superior worlds and destroying them. Even the war against the death spirits was something they had caused by gross negligence.

If they had killed the death spirit king initially, this war would never have happened, and countless millions of fighters would never have perished in the void.

Li Zongming might or might not be evil—but the superior kings gathered here certainly all were.

Upon hearing the ice queen's words, the king of keys lowered his head to hide a smile.

The solar king continued, "The Zongming king's actions are in stark disagreement with our philosophy, and he's destroying the peace of the three thousand worlds. As the governors of this realm, we can't ignore his actions. That's why I propose that we wage war against his world—we have to destroy all these newly evolved superior worlds."

The king of chaos suggested, "Perhaps the king of Zongming merely hasn't had time to deal with these new worlds."

The solar king waved a hand. "King of chaos, please don't try to defend the Zongming king. Fellows like him have to be eradicated at any cost."

What shone amidst the solar king's eyes wasn't the light of justice, but of endless greed.

The ice queen slapped a hand on the table. "I agree with your motion. Count me in."

The king of black fog said, "I can't stand him either. I don't want to see the Zongming king in our next meeting. Count me in as well."

The gray fluid bubbled. The king of evil motioned agreement with the plan.

The solar king's eyes flared with greed, with malice and vice. "King of chaos, I know you're quite interested in that fellow called Zhang Lie, but we have a problem with him as well!

That damnable fellow hid his strength and tricked us all before the start of the war against the death spirits. We suffered a great deal of losses as a result, and it's time to do something about it."

The king of chaos transmitted, "I won't take part, but by all means, go have fun. I shall take a neutral stance, helping neither side. If you fail, don't come begging me for help."

The solar king smirked. Fail? That was impossible! The solar king, the ice queen, the king of black fog, and the king of evil—with these four superior kings working together, how could they ever be defeated?

The solar king certainly couldn't fathom such an outcome. If he were to suffer an attack from a group of superior kings, he'd be kneeling on the floor and begging for mercy.

The solar king turned to the king of keys. "What say you, king of keys?"

The king of keys seemed to be contemplating the idea of joining the alliance.

The solar king wheedled, "King of keys, you've lost nine superior worlds' worth of energy, too!"

The ice queen nodded firmly. "Perhaps it might mean little to you, king of keys, but aren't you enraged that you were tricked by Zhang Lie?"

The king of keys thought for a moment. "I won't participate directly, but I can send a helper."

With the king of keys' support, the solar king, the ice queen, the king of black fog, and the king of evil were all very excited.

The ten suns behind the solar king shone with light, the blizzard around the ice queen flared, and the black fog that constituted the king of black fog roiled.

The fluid that made up the king of evil's body roiled. More and more mutated growths and abominations were visible within the main body's flesh, crying out shrilly. Much of these creatures were absorbed back into the king of evil's main body.

With the king of keys' support, the kings were much more likely to succeed. At the very least, there would be yet another combatant on the level of a superior king working with them.

Next, they would have to make their own arrangements.

The solar king pledged, "I'll take responsibility for one of the newly evolved superior worlds."

The ice queen followed suit. "I'll take the other."

A human face appeared in the black fog, opening its mouth and stating, "I'll send out a clone to deal with the Zongming world."

The king of evil likewise sent out a mental transmission claiming he would dispatch a clone to deal with the world of black rain.

The four superior kings seemed to be planning to divide up their spoils, rather than going against the Zongming world.

The solar king reminded them, "Don't forget that Zhang Lie will still be a problem."

The four superior kings all glanced at each other seriously.

He was someone who had participated in killing the death spirit king. Although the fight had largely been orchestrated by the king of chaos' clone, the fact that he could take part in such a battle implied that he was at least their equal in strength.

The king of keys swung his short, loli-like legs with a smile. "How about I have someone take care of him?"

Upon hearing that the king of keys was volunteering for such a task, the four kings were delighted.

The solar king cried out in surprise, "If the king of keys is willing to strike, we'll surely succeed!"

The ice queen nodded. "This is certainly the best scenario."

After they had a short discussion about the details of the plan, the four superior kings each prepared for the invasion individually.

The king of keys and king of chaos stayed behind. The king of keys asked, "Is something the matter?"

The king of chaos countered, "Is it fun?"

This time, rather than a mental transmission, the king of chaos used his own voice. The voice sounded like the deepest whispers from the abyss, like a combination of chaos and darkness. The tone alone would be able to drive any ordinary person mad—even a superior king.

"I think it's interesting," the king of keys replied.

The king of chaos sounded disappointed. "You're straying from your path."
