Li Ke was not moved. He walked towards Zooey step by step. If Mai Yisha really wanted to stop him, he would not mind taking her heart out.
Zooey's previous actions were undoubtedly heinous, so Li Ke wanted her to die in fear.
"If she dies, I will die too. She is on our side now. Can you put aside your personal grudge for the time being?"
Mai Yisha's defense was quite strong.
"You said this is a personal grudge?"
Li Ke's voice sounded like it came out of Freldrod's eternal ice.
"She summoned the sun and threatened my city. Shurima disregarded the safety of the world and wanted to destroy it. You said this is a personal grudge? Mai Yisha, don't think that you can distort the truth just because of my kindness to you. I have seen her evil with my own eyes. "
The reason why he slowly walked towards Zooey was to make her feel fear and pain, which was the greatest comfort and pleasure for him.
"If you defend her, then let's die together."
However, his rationality overshadowed his emotions. He was now the perfect Dragon of the Sky, the executor of the World Will.
Destroying the Gods of this world was a good thing for the world, so he subconsciously thought that killing the Gods was the best choice. In this state, he did not need to listen to any voices. He was the agent of the World Will.
He did not need anyone to give him tasks or tell him what to do. Everything he did was to carry out the World Will.
"Die."
The ferocious dragon claws penetrated Mai Yisha's towering chest and Zooey's head. The souls of the two beauties were torn apart by Li Ke's claws at the same time. They did not even have the chance to struggle before they disappeared from the world. Only a shining star of seven colors was left in Li Ke's hand.
Looking at the star in the dragon claws, Li Ke's face showed a cruel smile. Mai Yisha and Zooey were not completely dead. Although their bodies and souls were destroyed, their essence was preserved by the Twilight Starspirit. As long as he crushed the Wandering Star, the two troublesome fellows would be completely dead.
But just as he was about to do so, his will finally felt that something was wrong.
"I actually killed Maisa?"
Li Ke, who was holding the core of the Twilight Starspirit in his hand, couldn't believe what he had done before. And because he had broken out of the state of the Sky Dragon, the heavy pressure and deathly aura had also dissipated from his body. The remaining two gods heaved a sigh of relief. They could finally move their bodies under fear.
"This mode is affecting me more and more. I can't suppress my desire to vent anymore …"
Li Ke took a deep breath. His current state was actually advancing towards a higher level, so if he wasn't careful, he would end up in the same situation as before. He would consider whether or not to kill the person in front of him with absolute rationality instead of considering it emotionally.
If Maisa had persuaded him in his mortal state, he would have given up on killing Zooey instead of killing her as a hindrance.
This was the biggest difference between Li Ke in his dragon state and Li Ke in his mortal state.
However, when he was about to change back to his mortal state, countless blue electric arcs emerged from his body, making him feel intense pain and resistance. His body refused to change back to his mortal body, so when his spirit chose to change back, it encountered strong resistance.
The process of changing back to his mortal state was very difficult. No, to be exact, it was almost impossible. Although the deformation of his head had disappeared and he was no longer a dragon's head, his teeth had become sharp, the dragon horns on his head had not disappeared, and his eyes had directly turned into vertical pupils.
His cheeks and nose were full of blue-purple scales. No matter how hard he tried, he could not change his body anymore. He could only barely maintain this posture.
"Damn it … My body is evolving too fast, so my soul can't be suppressed anymore?!"
His body had completely surpassed his soul. Even though there was no situation where his soul couldn't match, he couldn't suppress his body back to its mortal state anymore. He would continue to evolve in the direction of the Starcaster Dragon King until his body had the same structure as the Starcaster Dragon King.
However, he couldn't keep up with this speed, which was why he couldn't control his body freely.
"… So this day has finally arrived?"
Li Ke lifted his head and looked at the starry sky. He clearly felt as though something in the sky was calling out to him constantly, calling him to gather there.
He knew what this unprecedented feeling was because when he looked up at the starry sky, the stars transformed into the dragon king's face and looked at him with a gratified expression.
"My son, you've done well."
He was happy that he killed the Twilight Starspirit's human incarnation and was also satisfied with his continuous dragonization. When the two Starry Sky Dragons galloped in the universe, he didn't dare to imagine how dazzling the universe would be.
Furthermore, there would no longer be any insects that dared to target them. The power of the two Star Dragons was not something that any life in this universe could resist.
They would lead this world to true prosperity and prosperity.
"…"
However, Li Ke didn't respond. The enormous crown in the dragon king's image was so glaring that it couldn't be ignored. No matter how powerful the dragon king was, it couldn't wash away the fact that he was now a slave. Besides, what caught Li Ke's attention was that when the dragon king's image appeared before him through the stars …
The crown had appeared together with the Dragon King's dragon horns, which undoubtedly meant that the crown was one with the Dragon King. Although it was said to be made by the gods, the real completion of the crown was undoubtedly the Dragon King's own strength.
This information confirmed Li Ke's guess. He looked at the dragon king in the sky and asked his question softly.
"O 'great Star Caster Dragon King, I have a question for you."
The dragon king wasn't in front of him, but his voice was able to reach the dragon king's ears without delay.
"Speak, my son."
The dragon king's voice was filled with affection. Even though Li Ke was like an illegitimate son to him, that wasn't important. What was important was that Li Ke was indeed his son.
That was why the dragon king generously allowed Li Ke to ask him questions.
"Do you think you've done anything wrong?"
Li Ke asked this question calmly, and the Dragon King's benevolent smile froze at this moment.
He didn't understand why his son would ask such a question. Didn't he know that he was the greatest creator in this world? He was the one who lit up the stars in this world. Those gods who relied on the stars to appear could also be considered as his creation.
This meant that everything in this world was created by him. Yet, his true son was asking him if he felt that he had done anything wrong when he was trapped?
That was absurd and had no respect at all!
But he was his son.
"No, I've never done anything wrong. My will is the will of this world. Lighting up the stars is my entire life. Son, lighting up this world can't be considered a mistake."
"Even if you were plotted against, don't you think that you were careless and made a mistake?"
"… But this isn't my mistake. It's their despicable and dishonorable behavior. Son, you don't understand how terrible they've done. They used your brothers and sisters to threaten me and make me listen to their orders. This isn't my mistake. It's their fault! "
Li Ke nodded.
"Then, do you think you're high and mighty?"
"Of course. I created everything, so everything in this world is naturally beneath me. Whether it's those arrogant gods or those insects that live on my works, no existence can compare to my nobility."
Li Ke nodded again. He roughly understood what was controlling this great Dragon King.
Pride.
There was nothing wrong with his pride. As the most powerful life form in this world, the creator who created everything, he was just proud. Instead of committing crimes, he directly killed the insects that lived on his works. This was enough to show that he was benevolent and kind enough.
For the Dragon King, he was proud of his own achievements. It was completely normal for him to feel conceited about his works.
But perhaps the gods had used this to their advantage to successfully plot against the Dragon King.
That crown wasn't something substantial. It was a concept, a concept that could collect pride. As long as the Dragon King refused to give up his pride and didn't lower himself to a certain level, then this crown would constantly use his own power to strengthen this crown.
The amount of his pride was the amount of control this crown had over him.
And who could really get rid of their own pride?
It was almost impossible for a mortal to do this, let alone a god who had more emotions. And was there anything wrong with the Dragon King being proud? There was nothing wrong with it. He even treated every life form in this world equally because all the lives in this world were indeed not as noble as him.
It was not an exaggeration to say that he was the only true god.
But the funny thing was that this only true god was imprisoned and enslaved because of the cage he had created for himself.
"Then, have you ever thought of giving up this pride? Not being proud of the planet you created, not being proud of your identity? "
Li Ke tried to let the Dragon King deal with the crown himself. If he guessed correctly, as long as the Dragon King was willing to lower his head, then the crown would become extremely fragile in an instant.
But the Dragon King's face suddenly became unusually dangerous and serious. His voice was no longer full of affection.
"… I only promised you one thing, child."
Li Ke looked at the face that was completely made up of stars and nodded silently.
He understood that the gods' plan was so simple. The Dragon King would never lower his head. He would never give up his pride. He would never give up his pride even if he gave up his life. This pride was so reasonable and so righteous.
He deserved it, so he would never lower his head.
If he didn't lower his head, he could only accept enslavement. But if he lowered his head, he could end the enslavement. But the gods knew him too well. They knew the Dragon King who had never taken them seriously. They knew that he would never lower his proud head for them.
The Dragon King could endure abuse, endure being enslaved, and even be toyed with like a dog by the gods under threat. But this pride of creating the world and creating the stars was as indestructible as his life.
If he lowered his head, it meant that this world, this bright world, was inferior to the gods. It was something that existed below them.
So it was even more impossible for him to lower his head.
Li Ke clenched his fists. In fact, he had another guess. The Dragon King represented the power of 'movement' in the universe. He could not be enslaved or restricted by anything.
So after the gods restricted him, the threat of the void appeared and grew stronger. Because the power of 'movement' in the world was restricted, the power of 'silence' naturally gained the upper hand. The longer the Dragon King was restricted, the greater the threat of silence would be.
"… I see."
Li Ke no longer looked at the stars in the sky. Although he knew that the Dragon King was still watching him, he still held the body of the Twilight Starspirit tightly in his hand.
He looked at the Starspirit, whose power was very special even among the gods, and began to communicate with her.
"Can you travel through time?"
Twilight, the end of the world, the end of time, the last moment when everything came to an end. This was also why Zooey had the ability of space transmission, which even the gods could not reach. Because this was the 'twilight of the road.' So she could ignore the distance and restrictions and open up all kinds of magical roads.
Twilight also represented the boundary between reality and illusion. So she could make people fall into a deep sleep and be attacked in both dreams and reality.
And her most essential power was actually the end and the non-end, which was also the boundary between observation and non-observation in quantum mechanics.
In such an ambiguous situation, she could do many things that could be called miracles, including taking Li Ke to an unknown time in the past to witness the scene of the Dragon King being restrained.
In theory, Twilight's Astral Soul should be able to do this as long as she was strong enough. Mai Isha said that Zooey was still useful, so this should be the case.
But she did not expect that Li Ke, who had lost control, would kill her and Zooey without saying a word.
So if Li Ke wanted to know whether the Dragon King was restricted by his pride, he had to resurrect Zooey and Mai Isha, who had just been killed by him, and then let them take him to the past.
"So I hate uncontrollable power."
