The Sinful Life of The Emperor-Chapter 656: Genocidal Maniac?

In the sky, a soft sigh escaped from Ice Queen's lips. The energy she has absorbed from the formation beams was completely spent. Now exhaustion took over her, and she felt tired. But this didn't bother her.

She lowered her head and looked at the mausoleum. Over 70% of it was destroyed, making it unrecognizable.

Most of the revived corpses were entering the spatial tunnel while the remaining few were fighting the Alphas with whom their consciousness resonated.

This brought a small smile to her lips.

Her icy wings started fading, and she flew downwards, unconcerned by the violent blasts from battles nearby.

The Black Fog was at its wits end. Over ten thousand years of efforts were destroyed right before it, and it could do nothing.

No, that was incorrect because it has contributed to the destruction. So it has done something, just not in the way it wanted to.

Because if not for the use of formation power, such a calamity wouldn't have struck the mausoleum. After all, even though Ice Queen was strong, she wasn't powerful enough to do such damage.

"The fault is mine!"

The Black Fog chided itself before turning towards Ice Queen.

"Just what have you done?!"

Ice Queen didn't answer. She leaned against a broken headstone and closed her eyes.

Far away, thousands of miles ahead, Kiba was rushing through explosion clouds and searching something for which he entered Infinity Maze.

He suddenly stopped and looked back, bringing his focus on Ice Queen.

Just like the fog, he was curious why did she do such a thing. Those who entered the mausoleum wanted to steal precious treasures and materials from the tombs. Either for themselves or their loved ones in order to evolve and find ways to extend their lifespan.

Destroying the mausoleum and awakening the corpses made no sense, especially for someone of her stature. These corpses were stepping into Earth, and sooner or later, they would wreak havoc there and break the balance of power.

This would harm Eden as well.

Ice Queen fell Kiba's gaze, and she turned towards him. Seeing his look, she knew what he wanted to ask.

She rarely spoke, much less bother to respond. But he was one of the very few who has earned the right to make her speak.

"I did this for the same reason as to why we do anything – because we can."

Ice Queen answered.

Kiba was stunned, and for a few seconds, he just stared at her. Afterward, he nodded in understanding and thanked her for satisfying his curiosity.

Her actions might result in never seen before bloodshed and perhaps threaten Earth's very existence, but he didn't care about that.

Good or evil, he wasn't the judge here.

The Black Fog turned raging mad.

"You ruined the plan of Lord Xeced just because you can?!" The fog demanded.

Ice Queen turned towards the fog. It has helped her, so in a way, she owed the fog a favor.

To return the favor, she shook her head.

"Huh? That's not the reason?!" The Black Fog was shocked.

Before it could get another response, a deafening sound shook the mausoleum.

"Awoooo!"

A wolf's roar rang out, and the gigantic phantom of a bloody wolf appeared. It slashed its sharp claws at Ice Queen.

"Crimson Wolf!" Kiba was startled.

Indeed, it was Crimson Wolf. His fury had soared to the heavens when he heard Ice Queen's words, and he attacked her without any thoughts.

"Bloody bitch!" Crimson Wolf shouted. "Just because you can, it doesn't mean you should!"

"A good advice," Ice Queen agreed as she waved her right hand gently. "But you need it more than me."

Snowy mist flashed out and covered the slashing claws. The claws slowed down, and ice crystals started wrapping them.

As the claws started freezing, the wolf phantom opened its mouth, and a globe of bloody light blasted out.

At the same time, Mountain Lord pressed his hands on the broken ground.

RUMBLEEE

Mountain peaks burst out and pierced at Ice Queen. She jumped up, but from above, the bloody light was shooting at her.

She spread her arms and aimed at both the mountains and the light. Streams of icy energy rippled out.

Swish!

Right at that instant, the space before her distorted, and Miria emerged.

"We already had enough of Extermination! And we don't need another genocidal maniac!"

Miria stabbed the katana down, and it penetrated right into Ice Queen's heart.

"Ppff!"

Blood splashed out from Ice Queen's mouth while the katana emerged from her back.

"So just die!"

Miria said as she pulled the katana out.

"Genocidal maniac? What a funny thing to say."

A soul-stirring voice whispered from her back.

"!!!!" Miria was shocked.

The Ice Queen whom she had just stabbed was shattering into ice petals. She swiftly turned around and saw Ice Queen before her.

This Ice Queen has no sign of stabbing! Nor there were any traces of blood!

"H-how?!" Miria, Crimson Wolf, and Mountain Lord were petrified.

They had attacked her with the best moves they could prepare in such a short time, but she was completely fine. How was such a thing possible?!

"Reality-warping," Kiba muttered to himself. "So she could use it as well. That too despite being exhausted."

He was impressed, and he continued to observe the battle. He was sure he could guess the outcome.

Miria, Crimson Wolf, and Mountain Lord retreated while preparing for another set of coordinated attacks.

Ice Queen was in no mood to give them that time. She lifted her hand and then pressed it down.

Miria and others' complexion paled. The space above them froze while the air around them tightened.

BOOM

The frozen space smashed them down, sending them crashing into the ground.

"Cough!"

Miria jumped out of the resulting crater and looked at Ice Queen. Wiping the blood from her lips, she said, "Calling you a genocidal maniac isn't my idea of fun."

Ice Queen was amused. With a captivating smile, she said, "Without genocide, there would have been no humanity in the first place."
