--- Chapter 165 ---

"K-K-Kaiju Maker..."

Dullahan couldn't believe his sense at the moment.

He was sure the almighty had perished from the cosmic storm, but Yu Long's existence denied that fact.

Yu Long tilted his head, "What's the matter, Dullahan? You look like someone who has seen a ghost or something?"

"Or you really thought I died from that pesky cosmic storm. How laughable, if you could survive, what makes you think I can't?"

Dullahan trembled in fear, "T-This is impossible. I must be dreaming..."

"Aih, still denying reality." Yu Long chuckled while shaking his head. "It seems you've lived quite a terrible life in the past sixteen years."

"Don't worry, I will handle that for you."

"For now, take your hand off my woman..."

As if the world responded to Yu Long's order, an invisible force slashed through the void and mutilated Dullahan's hand, which held Hong Guan's neck.

Yu Long teleported Hong Guan to his side and caught her, "You shouldn't have pushed yourself this far, you know?"

"I..." Hong Guan wanted to respond, but no words came to refute Yu Long's question.

"I'm afraid you're hurting yourself. Still, I'm proud of you." Yu Long kissed Hong Guan's forehead.

Hong Guan's mouth parted in surprise as her green eyes watched over Yu Long's handsome face. She couldn't help but question whether he really kissed her or not.

It was like a dream come true!

"Hold tight." Yu Long's calm words drifted to her ears.

"This won't take long."

Hong Guan let out the most beautiful smile Yu Long had ever seen and fainted while embracing him. She has spent an immense amount of energy, so it's normal for her to faint like this.

Still, Yu Long didn't like it.

Yu Long glanced at Dullahan and asked, "I thought you have Knight Code, Dullahan."

"I know you are angry that Fran stole your Essence Sphere, but causing such destruction and massacre on Profound Sky Continent..."

"You have become quite an arrogant knight, I see."

"N-No, that's not..." Dullahan felt Yu Long's cold gaze and lowered his body, causing his lower half to sink into the ocean.

Yu Long indifferently ordered, "Kneel."

BOOM!

The ocean around Dullahan got pushed back by a gravity force, making the headless Death Knight kneel on the ground. He crashed down, knees first, and his whole body buried on the ocean floor.

Yu Long looked down from above and asked, "Dullahan, do you feel any dissatisfaction toward me?"

'What was that?!' Jasmine felt tremendous force tearing the Blue Pole Star's veil border.

Jasmine peeked out and cursed, "How is this even humanly possible?"

Her divine sense couldn't sense more than the fact this force was beyond her understanding.

A massive claw gleamed with darkness, and light tore the night sky and descended upon the world. One might think this was just your simple manifestation, but no. It is a literal physical appearance of an unknown world-erasing beast.

Yu Long's eyes gleamed with mystic light.

[Art of True Apex - 1st Layer: King of Monsters' Claw]

Dullahan made his pitiful attempt and summoned several portals, launching gigantic weapons at the incoming claw.

Nevertheless, it was like a bunch of cottons trying to stop an unstoppable train!

The space & time bent, reaching breaking point when the claw swayed through the atmosphere. Shockwaves blast through all corners, creating whirlwinds one after another.

These phenomena were 'actually' created from sheer momentum alone.

The claw has yet to reach Dullahan.

Dullahan watched this and mocked himself, "I should have kept my anger in check..."

"If he could bring me to this world, he also can take me away..."

It is his inevitable end!

The King of Monsters' Claw is the ultimate technique Yu Long created in his seclusion. It's an irresistible killing technique to defeat his enemy, destroying their soul and sealing their ends.

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!!!

The claw reached the ocean floor and completely erased it from existence, leaving behind a cracked dimensional hole.

"As expected, he couldn't resist a single move..."

It's just one move, but the power behind it is not something Dullahan can take.

"Farewell, Dullahan." Yu Long said while closing his eyes.

"I know you're just angry and justified to attack Fran, but your value is nothing compared to my Hong Guan..."

"And you dare to injure her..." The tone he used is like comparing a trash to a precious treasure.

He's a Kaiju Maker. He wasn't used to being compassionate toward humans but more so to his Kaiju.

But there is always an exception to such a rule.

So what if he lost a Kaiju of his past life?

He can make a better and stronger one.

Yu Long stared at Hong Guan warmly, "Emotion is such a complicated essence."

He kicked the ground and left the razzed ocean, which wouldn't return to its original state for a while. Well, his other Kaiju would handle this matter.

"For now, let's return home."

In the stormy yet silent night, Yu Long carried Hong Guan like the bride she was.
