When he stared at those crimson-glowing eyes, Tate felt he was staring at his own graveyard. At this moment behind Aditya, he saw another figure. The figure had terrifying red large dragon eyes. The figure's entire body was made up of darkness. From the figure's body outline, it seems a dragon was staring at him.
"Old man, you sold us out." Aditya stopped holding his killing intent. As he took each step forward, toward the old man Tate, the more of his killing intent was being released. The killing intent Aditya had was too big. He had slaughtered more than ten millions of beings so far.
"Aditya, what are you talking about?" Noah asked. Alicia and Sylvie wasn't that surprised either as both had seen how strange and weird the old man has been acting ever since they head out of the Rose Hills city.
"Isn't it obvious, this old man sold us out. Every time we took made a decision, this bastard did the opposite. Now we're surrounded by countless mutant fire ants from all directions. There is no escape for us. All this happened because of this old man."
"What? We're surrounded?" Noah was shocked. However when he saw Sylvie and Nora also nodding their heads with pale faces, he realized that Aditya wasn't just joking.
It was not just Noah, all the elite soldiers felt their hearts boiling in anger as they stared at the old man Tate. If they had the power, they already would had ripped his head off of his body.
The crimson red lightning became more violent as Aditya's anger increased. When he finished his words, the crimson lightning was flickering around his body so violently that anyone who stood even 10 meters range of Aditya was hit crimson red lightning. The Dragon Monarch's entire was body was covered in deep Crimson red lightning. The only thing that everyone was able to see was his Crimson glowing dragon eyes.
"Tate, why did you do it?" Even though Aditya did not had any solid evidences against Tate, everyone easily believed in his words as they all has seen just how strange and weirdly Tate has been acting. Just as they left the Rose hills city, Tate's attitude took a 180 degree flip. The old man began acting more arrogant. The fact that he even stopped respecting the Crown prince and the princess added more fuel to the fire.
"I....." Tate looked at Aditya. Never in this entire life, he has felt such tremendous pressure. Just staring at those deep Crimson vertical slits pupils was a great challenge to Tate. His heart was telling him to run away. But deep down even though Tate did not knew Aditya personally, even though Tate did not knew how powerful Aditya was, even though Tate knew Aditya was only a beginner 3rd-order cultivator, he felt that Aditya can easily take his life. Even if he started running at his full speed, this demon wasn't going to let him live.
At this moment everyone was staring at Tate. "Old man, you purposely ordered us to not bring the Pegasuses with us as you knew that if even if we were surrounded by countless number of mutant fire ants, with the Pegasuses super fast agility we easily could have escaped."
With each passing seconds, even the peak 4th-order elite soldiers were able to sense the approaching enemy. The mutant fire ants were walking at their direction. The mutant fire ants didn't looked worried if the enemy would run away. They were taking their time. It was as if they knew that there was no escape.
Seeing Aditya walking toward Tate, everyone slowly moved out of the way. As Aditya walked up to Tate, no one, not even the fifth-order cultivators that stood at the very top of this continent, Nora and Sylvie was able to bear such terrifying killing intent. At this moment their faces had turned pale. Even the 5th-order cultivators were having hard time breathing. While the condition of the elite soldiers was even worse. As for Noah and Alicia, the only two other 3rd-order cultivators in this whole expedition, their conditions was even worse.
If Sylvie had no held Alicia, the goddess of wealth would have lost her consciousness. As the Peak 3rd-order cultivator, the Crown prince of the Ethereal Empire, at this moment his eyes were bleeding. Blood was coming out from his nose, eyes, and ears. It was taking Noah's all might to just keep his consciousness. The Crown prince was already on his knees. It was as if the gravity of the whole world has reached an unbearable point. Even breathing seems to have become the most difficult thing in the whole world. All this were happening just because of Aditya's killing intent. And the Dragon King or the Dragon Monarch wasn't even focusing his killing intent on anyone other than Tate.
Aditya stopped when he was about 15 meters away from Tate. At this moment his mind was filled with one kind of emotion and that was anger. There was no hate or hesitation or depression or anxiety of facing countless mutant fire ants in this mind or heart. The only thing that the Dragon Monarch wanted to do at this moment, no matter the cost, was to beat the hell out of Tate and rip of his heart and bury his skull so deep that no human, no magical animal, no race would be able to find his head. He wanted to destroy Tate's body so badly that even mother goddess would feel pity for the poor soul.
There was one thing that Aditya hated more than anything in this whole life. It was the thing that he always looked out for. He always took measures to avoid this. Just the thought of being betrayed made the Dragon Monarch lose his sanity. Without even realizing it, without even knowing about the consequences, Tate has done something that everyone single being on this planet would want to avoid doing.
There were many kinds of people in this big world. The number of enemies that Aditya has faced in the previous life and in this life is too many. This number will only continue to increase as he walks on the path of becoming the Dragon Monarch. Aditya respected all of his enemies except for one kind of enemy. It was the type of people who would backstab or betray his friends and families.
Meanwhile in the face of absolute despair, fully knowing and realizing that he had messed up real bad this time, Tate went crazy. The old man suddenly started laughing while looking at Aditya.
"Hahaha! You all will die and become mutant fire ant breakfast, lunch and dinner. But don't worry, I will be sure to bring back King Ronnie's children's head. I can't wait to see the reaction both of your father will have when he will see both of your heads."
"As for you...." Tate was still afraid. Even though he was laughing and saying such words like he has won, his legs never stopped shaking. His heart beat never calmed down. His brain never stopped sending distress signals.
"Under my watch, nothing will happen to Noah and Alicia. I will protect them and this is a promise. As for you, I doubt your allies will make it in time to save your as*." Tate widened his eyes in fear as he took a step back while trying to launch some kind of attack but he was too frightened which caused him to take a few extra seconds to prepare his attack. By the time his attack was ready, when he looked at Aditya, the Crimson Dragon already had disappeared.
At this moment the only thing that was being heard in the Heavenly Hemlock Forest was the cracking sound of the Crimson lightning.
Swoosh!
Tate did not even needed to look back to know who had appeared behind him. Before Tate can even turn around, he dragon claw pierced his stomach.
Everyone was stunned by the scene. They will never forget the day when a beginner 3rd-order who is nothing but an ant in front of a Beginner 5th-order was killed by that very beginner 3rd-order.
Ahhh!!!!!
The outer region of the heavenly hemlock forest which has been quiet until now heard a loud painful scream. The mutant fire ants that were slowing approaching their enemies also heard the scream.
"You..." At this moment, the proud and one of the strongest pillars of the Ethereal Empire was on his knees while looking at Aditya.
"I would love to torture you for a little longer unfortunately I have clean some ants." After saying these words in a cold tone, the dragon king raised his right feet and pressed Tate's head on the ground.
At this moment Tate has never felt so humiliated.
Really Thank you very much to all those who sends support with valuable golden tickets. I hope we can keep it up!!!
