Chapter 745: A Polite Greeting

A gigantic pale-blue fish materialized from Zhang Lie\'s back and soared toward the clouds as though it was leaping out of water. It hovered above Zhang Lie\'s head. It was so large that it was almost like a whale in size, and it seemed as though it could swallow up the sun and moon.

Genetic energy condensed over Zhang Lie\'s body, and howling winds began to rage over the plain. It struck where the Mengtai were located, sending countless tents flying into the air.

Zhang Lie\'s technique possessed such strength that it made the very air warp.

The Mengtai all came out of their tents to inspect what had caused the disturbance, and they were frightened stiff by the giant pale-blue fish they found floating through the air.

A titanic figure appeared from the midst of the Mengtai, roaring as loud as a cannon.

"[Fists of the Silent Sea: Soar]!" Zhang Lie met the roar with a punch. Ripples of energy spread out from Zhang Lie, warping the space around him. The fish above his head transformed into thousands of far smaller fishes, melding with the force of Zhang Lie\'s punch as it launched toward the titan.

The titan tried to shield the area against the onslaught of the tsunami-like wave of force, but to no avail. All he could block was a small portion of the attack. The humongous wave swept through the clearing and the people he was trying to protect.

The wave crushed whatever resistance it met; it swallowed up the young and old, males and females alike. The water turned blood-colored. Bones and canvas were carried along the waves as Zhang Lie\'s attack finally dissipated.

The shocking scale of the attack shocked all the onlookers, especially Li Qianlin and Dong Mingxing. They had both witnessed how strong Zhang Lie was—he had slain the king of the west in front of them, after all.

Li Qianlin turned to her companion and muttered hesitantly, "He seems to have grown even stronger..."

Zhang Lie\'s attacks were even larger and stronger in scale than when he faced the king of the west. Just how had Zhang Lie grown so much stronger in so short a period? Neither Li Qianlin nor Dong Mingxing had any sense of just how strong the man in front of them was.

What sort of \'polite greeting\' was this? Zhang Lie was just battering them all down with force! Just what grudge did he bear against them?

The aliens of the Milky Way understood Zhang Lie\'s sudden increase in strength very well: after all, he had just obtained twenty disaster gene fragments, and it was only natural that his strength would increase in leaps and bounds.

After the tsunami passed, all that was left before them was a mess of ruins. The entire Mengtai campsite, about as large as a medium-sized city, had been destroyed.

The tents that had once dotted the region had all been yanked out from the ground and turned into nothing more than tattered scrap. Even a layer of grass and topsoil had been pulled into the air.

The only lifeform that remained standing was a mix of a lion and a bear. He looked somewhat like the other Mengtai, but yet somehow different. His body was as large as a mountain. A bull\'s horns grew out of his head, and a pair of wings sprouted from his back like a cape.

This was the clan head of the Mengtai, the king of the realm of this world—Beiqi.

Beiqi was battered and bruised all over. There were wounds all over his body, and much of his fur had been scraped or tugged away. Bone was visible on his claws and one leg, a result of his disastrous attempt to block Zhang Lie\'s attack.

Not only did he fail, he even became gravely injured as a result.

As he watched the tribe he had raised from the ground up perish in a freak tsunami, Beiqi\'s body shook. He howled into the air, crying out, "Just what have I done to provoke such a response?!"

The aliens of the Milky Way glanced at each other with a smile. How pitiful were those who lived without living, who died without understanding why they died! This king\'s tribe had perished, and he didn\'t even know why.

Zhang Lie replied, "If someone\'s targeting my race, surely it makes sense for me to target theirs back."

Beiqi\'s eyes widened. "You\'re a human?"

As far as he knew, humans were a weak race, without any notable strength to their name. The Mengtai and the humans had been feuding with each other for a very long time. If not for the draconians, Beiqi expected that the Mengtai would have been rid of the humans multiple times over by now.

Of course, it wasn\'t as though the humans were simply parasites. Without the humans around, the Mengtai would have been able to wipe out the draconians, instead. The humans and draconians were mutually dependent on each other: the humans didn\'t boast any particularly strong fighters, while the draconians were at a numerical disadvantage, and could easily be overwhelmed by sheer numbers alone.

As far as Beiqi could recall, there were no strong humans around. Who was this strange human who had decimated his tribe in one fell swoop?

Warlord Xing Ying volunteered, "Zhang Lie, how about letting me handle this fellow?"

The starbeast Xing Ying had identified this as a good opportunity to demonstrate his skills in front of Zhang Lie. The warlords of the other three prime races all glared at him, envious and regretful that they hadn\'t seized this opportunity for themselves.

Beiqi was even more surprised, then. This large group of aliens was being led by a human? How could this be? Humans were weak and pitiful!

Beiqi could hardly believe his eyes. The alien who had just spoken was like the human\'s lapdog—and the other aliens around were making regretful expressions, as though they too wanted to be lapdogs themselves!

When had humans gained the qualification to lead such a large, diverse group of aliens? How could this be?

Zhang Lie shrugged. "As you will. If you want to have some fun, so be it. Just be careful."

Xing Ying whistled. Stellar energy surrounded him, morphing into feathers that covered his entire body. His wings outstretched, Xing Ying transformed into a gigantic starbeast who seemed as though he could devour the stars in the sky.

Stellar light shone from his golden feathers. His aura flared as he demonstrated his full strength.

After transforming into a starbeast, Xing Ying was no smaller than Beiqi himself.

The two gigantic beasts began to fight tooth and claw. Xing Ying\'s claws rent the sky, and his feathers shot toward Beiqi like meteor showers. Beiqi and Xing Ying clashed against each other over and over again, crushing mountains in the wake of their attacks.

Despite the forcefulness of their clash, neither party was able to emerge completely victorious.
