Ultragene Warlord Chapter 378: Fighting the Sura King

Chapter 378: Fighting the Sura King

This time around, the humans were shocked by the sura king’s words even before he released his aura. The famed Musi Yu, warlord of the third realm, was the sura king’s most beloved concubine?! A fighter as strong as the sura king didn’t have any need to resort to lying, but weren’t he and Musi Yu both male?

One human even guessed, “Could Musi Yu’s title as a third-realm warlord have come from his… dalliances… with the sura king?”

“There’s no doubt of it, I’m sure!”

“Of course there isn’t—what else could the sura king be doing here? He’s acting like a jilted lover!”

“Once this battle is over, I’ll rush back to Earth and tell everyone I know about this news.”

The human fighters brimmed with hope and determination. They had to be the ones to get home safely to inform everyone about this shocking revelation; they had to live on! Tomorrow’s newspapers’ headlines seemed clear already:

The unspeakable secret of the third-realm warlord, Musi Yu

The hidden tryst between Musi Yu and the sura king

The third-realm warlord, Musi Yu, a traitor to the human race!

Musi Yu’s name and reputation had been entirely ruined.

Now that Zhang Lie had defeated all the sura fighters besides the sura king, there was little the human fighters could do but watch and cheer him on. If the sura king were to win, they would all become his concubines; if Zhang Lie were to win, he would soon be heralded as humanity’s savior against the sura.

Someone wondered, “Do you think this was why Zhang Lie suddenly issued a bounty on the Musi clan?

Perhaps he wanted to eradicate the Musi clan because he knew that Musi Yu was the concubine of the sura king! And when Musi Yu realized that Zhang Lie had found out about his secret, he knew that he had to come to the second realm to assassinate him.”

“That’s very plausible!”

“And here I thought that Zhang Lie was misusing his authority, but it turned out that it was for the good of mankind all along!”

Zhang Lie had no idea what was going on, and when he heard that Musi Yu was actually the concubine of the sura king, he was as surprised as the other humans present.

The sura king growled in rage, “I’ll make you my concubine, then sleep with you day and night! Only then will I be able to assuage the lack of my darling Musi Yu.”

“Shut up!” Zhang Lie cringed. As he circulated his genetic energy, he shot forward.

The sura king waved an arm at him, sending tendrils of the bloody sea snaking toward him.

“[The Boundless Blade: Dragon’s Wrath]!” Venombane shook. A bloody dragon emerged from the blade, parting the seas as it shot toward the sura king.

“Interesting.” The sura king defended with a punch of his own. He punched forward with his right fist, his motions replicated by the sea itself. A fist of blood destroyed the blood dragon.

“[Syzygy]!” A blood moon formed beneath Zhang Lie’s feet, and a black sun rose by his back. The sura king could feel the potency of his blood sea weakening, and the fist he had just shot out was reduced in strength as well.

“[The Boundless Blade: Requiem of the End]!” A frightening array of swords destroyed the sura king’s domain. Under the effects of [Syzygy], Zhang Lie’s original strength was multiplied by an order of magnitude, a shocking, dramatic increase.

The will of the world appeared again, establishing another barrier to cordon off the fight between Zhang Lie and the sura king.

Zhang Lie himself charged forward wielding Venombane in his hand. As the sura king found his domain crumbling, Zhang Lie slashed forward with his sword, leaving a gaping wound from the sura king’s shoulder to his chest.

Zhang Lie had taken the upper hand.

“Very interesting. Indeed, you’re the strongest concubine I’ve faced to date!” A bloody mist poured out of the sura king’s body. The wound healed rapidly, and long, purple hair appeared from his head. The sura king quickly shrank from a three-meter tall giant to a regular two-meter tall sura fighter.

Horns protruded from his forehead like a crown, and his purple hair draped over his back. A spiritual power seemed to suffuse his body. Behind his back rose a black wheel on which nine will-o-wisps burned. A purplish-gold armor materialized over his body, reminiscent of a human’s genetic armor.

The sura king sighed in comfort. “It’s been a long time since I’ve used my battle-ready form.”

Zhang Lie could sense the sura king’s strength rising steadily with every transformation he made.

“It’s been far too long since I enjoyed the joys of combat. My opponents would always die far too rapidly for me to have any fun! I hope you’ll be able to give me the barest hint of a good fight.”

The sura king’s tone and voice had changed, and his initial perversion had morphed into the commanding tones of a leader. Glancing at his new transformation, the humans behind Zhang Lie began to fear, struck by the endless bloodlust that he seemed to radiate.

A blood dragon descended on the sura king from the skies. With a casual punch upward from the sura king, the dragon exploded head-first.

Zhang Lie raised an arm. The outline of a dragonturtle suddenly materialized over his body as the runic tablet of gravity crashed into the ground. Even the sura king found his actions hindered, as though his body had turned partially to lead.

With his other arm, Zhang Lie summoned the third and fourth tablets over the sura king’s body, causing his mind to slow and his energy to disperse. Sensing the potency of the tablets, the sura king tried to jump out of their way, but Zhang Lie then launched the second tablet, the runic tablet of lightness. The sura king lost control of his body for a short moment; by the time he recovered, the four tablets were arrayed around him.

“[Rune: Resonate]!” The outline of the dragonturtle around Zhang Lie’s body raised its head to the sky as it roared. The four tablets shone brilliantly, then began to revolve around the sura king’s body. The sura king felt bile and blood rising from his throat, and he had to force himself to swallow it back down.

“[The Boundless Blade: Dragon’s Wrath]!” Zhang Lie launched a dragon straight toward the sura king’s head.

The sura king activated a secret technique in an attempt to dispel the four tablets surrounding him, but by then, Zhang Lie’s second attack was already on its way.

“[The Boundless Blade: Dragon’s Ascent]!” A whole horde of blood dragons flocked out of Venomaben, surrounding the sura king like a gigantic cyclone.

The sura king yelled out as he forcibly summoned his domain, suppressing Zhang Lie’s attacks. His domain resisted the onslaught of Zhang Lie’s bloody dragons, neither party’s technique quite able to overcome the other. The sea smashed some of the dragons to pieces, but the dragons clawed away at the sea.

The human fighters had, by then, dashed inside the city and were watching the fight from the walls; it was too dangerous for them outside. Waves of energy radiated from the two fighters, and the weaker hunters running away into the distance found themselves being bowled over.
