Chapter 1069: The World of Blazing Sun
"[Lunarflame Shot: Extirpation of the Garuda]!" As Sun Mengmeng infused her genetic energy into the bow, the image of a garuda appeared behind her. Even before she released her arrow, frightening heat had gathered around her.
Huge chunks of ice all around melted into water. As she released her fingers, a human-headed, golden-winged bird shining with red light soared into the sky, its huge wings expanded. It began to pulse with red fire, brimming with such energy that it seemed as though it would set the world aflame.
Sun Mengmeng's attack scorched the heavens and the earth, dyeing everything in sight a patch of black. The ice queen released whatever energy she could, summoning the most massive blizzard she had to date. Huge chunks of ice swirled in the blizzard, forming a truly horrifying catastrophe.
Pitch-black flame and the energy of annihilation spread out in rings around Sun Mengmeng, melting the chunks of ice that came close to her. The ground began to melt, faster and faster.
The world that the ice queen had worked hard to build was dissolving before her eyes, bit by bit.
The ice queen, caught by the flames and sent flying, was like a violently burning meteor. The black flames that surrounded her body were of such staggering temperature that it melted all the ice around her as she flew into the air, leaving long scars across the ground.
[Lunarfalem Shot: Extirpation of the Garuda] boasted such staggering temperatures that the entire white world seemed to come alive. The ground melted, and meltwater from the glaciers formed streams. A layer of ice over the surface of the world began to dissolve.
Sun Mengmeng flew into the air chasing after the ice ?queen, who smashed into the ground in a pit.
Upon witnessing what lay within the pit, Sun Mengmeng's expression turned cold. There were countless sculptures arrayed around the ice queen, each of frozen aliens and genetic lifeforms.
The ice queen was still burning with black flame, keening with pain. No matter how she tried, the flames couldn't be extinguished.
She had consumed too much of her own energy in her fight against Sun Mengmeng to suppress the flames with the energy of ice and frost. All she could do was roll and writhe on the frozen ground, groaning in pain.
Sun Mengmeng's expression was fierce. "Explain this."
"These sculptures are part of my collection. Aren't they interesting?" The ice queen smiled wickedly even as the flames ate at her nature.
She had frozen living beings alive and kept them as works of art, despoiling the sanctity of this frozen world. Sun Mengmeng was disgusted. This was a cruel, inhumane act, which she was shocked but not surprised by.
Sun Mengmeng's face turned cold. "The superior kings of antiquity really do deserve to die."
Sun Mengmeng didn't make a move. She watched quietly as the ice queen writhed.
The ice queen used the last of her strength to crawl up toward Sun Mengmeng, but Sun Mengmeng kicked her aside expressionlessly.
The ice queen shouted, "Kill me! Kill me if you dare!"
Sun Mengmeng's face was ice-cold, colder than even the environment around her. "Someone like you doesn't deserve to die. It would hardly be sufficient to compensate for what you've done. The price of thousands, tens of thousands of lives on your hands—dying would be a blessing."
The ice queen roared, "Then what do you want?!"
"Die surrounded by flame, by pain, by the gazes of those whom you've wronged."
The ice queen taunted, "Do you fancy yourself a judge? What right have you to judge others? You're nothing more than a hypocrite."
"I let those who deserve to be punished be punished. I won't claim to be acting for justice—but I do believe what I'm doing is right. The man I respect and admire would certainly say that."
Sun Mengmeng couldn't help but think of Zhang Lie's smile.
After Sun Xiaowu finished dealing with the mountainous beast, he walked over to Sun Mengmeng's side and gave her a thumbs up. "Amazing, Sis! You took down a superior king of antiquity!"
Sun Mengmeng's face was still cold. "I'm your older sister, after all. I can hardly lose to you!"
As the black flames burned at the ice queen's soul, she cried out in pain. Even with the status of a superior king, she couldn't withstand it. "Kill me, kill me quickly!"
Sun Mengmeng and Sun Xiaowu ignored the ice queen's cries as they chatted and watched her burn to her death.
The ice queen had no chance of escape against Sun Mengmeng alone; now that Sun Xiaowu was here as well, her situation was even worse.
By the time Zhang Hanxiang joined them, the ice queen was begging for her death, but neither Sun Xiaowu nor Sun Mengmeng made a move.
In the end, as she cursed the hunters one and all, the ice queen burned to a crisp.
Blood rain fell from the skies. Before it could land, it turned into ice and snow.
They had won the battle. Sun Xiaowu and Zhang Hanxiang beamed, glad that all this was over, while the remaining frost spirits glanced at the trio in shock.
The ice queen had lost. Their queen, the ice queen, had lost! She was supposed to be invincible! The remaining frost spirits scattered, intending to run.
Although the ice queen was dead, the ice that surrounded and encased the white world didn't melt. Sun Mengmeng melted the nearby ice sculptures with her flame, only to find even more aliens trapped beneath.
Sun Mengmeng sighed. "Just what has the ice queen done to this world?"
Sun Xiaowu rapped at the ice with a fist. "It looks like a massive undertaking..."
Zhang Hanxiang wondered, "How do you think Li Feng, Zhou Ying, and Fang Yi are doing in the world of blazing sun?"
Sun Xiaowu shrugged. "As members of Team Zenith, they're surely fine. If we were able to take care of the white world so easily, would Li Feng, Zhou Ying, and Fang Yi have a problem with the world of blazing sun? Even if they aren't able to defeat the solar king, surely they'll at least be able to run."
As Sun Mengmeng and the others dealt with the melting ice, Li Feng, Zhou Ying, and Fang Yi had asked around the various worlds for the location of the world of blazing sun. By the time they finally arrived at it, all three of them were shocked by the conditions of the world.
Hundreds of suns hung in the air, and red flames licked the ground. The surface of the world was like a living hell, a burning furnace. The temperature was ridiculously high, and despite the three hunters' strength, their foreheads were all beading with sweat by the time they took just a few steps in.
