Ding Meng said coldly as he looked at the young man who was flailing around in front of him like a prawn, "I'll give you a chance to live. Answer me honestly, and I'll be lenient with you!"
"Stop it right now!"
An authoritative voice suddenly rang out from the broadcast in the sky. Obviously, Mr. Bai from the dispatch center had seen this through the surveillance cameras.
Ding Meng sneered, "Bai Langfei?"
Bai Langfei said angrily, "Put them down!"
Ding Meng said, "These are your disciples?"
Bai Langfei became even angrier. These two young men were indeed his beloved disciples, and they were quite talented. Both of them were not even 60 years old yet, but they were already at the Champion Level. In order to train them, the Bai family had given them a lot of resources, many of which were rare spiritual items. If they really died in Ding Meng's hands, then all their efforts would be for naught.
"I'll only say this one last time. Put them down, or you won't be able to bear the consequences." Bai Langfei was already trying his best to restrain himself.
At least, he thought that he was trying his best to restrain himself. However, Ding Meng did not think so. Ding Meng sneered even more. "I'd like to see if there are any consequences that I can't bear."
As soon as he finished speaking, a hair-raising scene appeared. The young man's head suddenly turned into a brownish-yellow source energy flame, leaving only his skull behind. He was like a vengeful soul that had been burned in hell, and he could not even make a sound.
Ding Meng let go again, and even the skull was burned to ashes by the source energy flame. A headless corpse lay limp on the ground. Even if this young man could be saved, he could only be a crystal energy artificial body in the future.
"This is the result of daring to threaten me!" Ding Meng said expressionlessly.
The broadcast did not sound again. Bai Langfei was probably shocked by Ding Meng's decisive and brutal means of killing. This was an authentic disciple of the Bai family, and Ding Meng had killed him just like that. It was even faster than slaughtering chickens and cows. He had directly crushed him to ashes.
Ding Meng's gaze fell on the young girl. He crooked his finger and said, "You, come here!"
The young girl was scared out of her wits. "I … I … I …"
Bai Langfei gnashed his teeth and said, "Ding Meng, if you dare to touch her, I will make sure you die a horrible death!"
As soon as he said that, he regretted it. He was threatening Ding Meng again. Therefore, the only reply he got was a merciless grab from Ding Meng's claw. The young girl was sucked into his palm. His five fingers tightened, and her throat was gripped tightly. The young girl began to struggle desperately.
Ding Meng was still expressionless. "Remember, the person who killed you was not me. It was your master. He wanted you to die quickly, so he threatened me. I have a habit. Before I die, I have to drag someone down with me."
This young girl was quite pretty, and her face was very pure. Normally, many men would be tempted by her. However, Ding Meng was never a man who would go easy on girls. He raised his hand and struck her with a karate chop.
With a crisp crack, the young girl's entire left arm was chopped off from her shoulder.
Bai Langfei was both shocked and angry. The young girl was a Light Element cultivator. If her arm was chopped off, it meant that she had lost a quarter of her foundation and origin. Even if she could recover in the future, who knew how long it would take for her to do so?
"Surnamed Ding, you're too vicious!" Bai Langfei cursed loudly.
"I'm vicious?"
Ding Meng sneered. He had only crippled her arm, but compared to what the old people in the refugee camp were going through, how could this be considered vicious?
Without another word, Ding Meng flipped his karate chop, and the young girl's remaining arm was separated from her body with a loud crack.
"Wah —" The girl could not take it anymore. She screamed and fainted.
"You dare to play dead in front of me?" Ding Meng exerted force in his palm. Traces of Origin Energy flowed into the girl's brain. She immediately woke up from the pain.
"I was wrong. Mr … Mr Ding Meng, please spare me!" The young girl could not help but cry.
She was really scared. She and her senior brothers usually trained in the virtual world of Battlecraft Combat and rarely fought in real life. When had they ever fought with real swords and spears and broken limbs?
In the end, Ding Meng had been fighting on the edge of life and death for a long time. He had already developed a temperament where he did not care about life and death. How could a flock of sheep be compared to a wild wolf like him who fought in the jungle?
Ding Meng stared at her coldly. "You still know how to beg for mercy?
Those women and old people in the refugee camp who starved to death did not even have the chance to beg for mercy. "
After saying that, he quickly tore off the girl's clothes and threw her to the ground. His left hand grabbed her ankle like an iron hoop and dragged her body upstairs.
"If you have the guts, continue to activate the space station's internal defense system. She will definitely be burned to ashes before I do!" These were the last words Ding Meng said to the surveillance cameras.
Bai Langfei gritted his teeth so hard that they almost shattered. After Ding Meng's actions, the people he had planted on the other floors were afraid of harming the innocent. They could not take action at all. Zhou Xi, Zhuang Weiming, and the others also did not dare to activate the weapon system.
In the command center's hall, dozens of control panels were neatly arranged. Hundreds of screens were still flashing with blue light. The staff here had not been evacuated. They were still at their posts, but everyone was scared. It was not that they did not want to escape, but that they could not escape at all.
Just now, everyone had seen clearly that the space station's weapon system was completely ineffective against this person who was about to kill them. Even the warlords who were equipped with high-level battle armor could not resist him at all. They had been destroyed like mud.
The result of fleeing was definitely death. If they did not flee, perhaps the other party would be kind enough to spare their lives.
Now, the station commander of the rest area, Zhou Xi, the deputy station commander Zhuang Weiming, the fleet's executive officer Peng Zhangbo, and Bai Langfei from the Bai family were everyone's last hope.
Suddenly, the thick alloy door of the command center fell to the ground with a loud bang. Everyone was shocked that this 200-square-meter door could be kicked open by someone.
The expressionless Ding Meng dragged the young girl, who was badly mutilated, into the command center. If this were any other time, it was believed that many people would have taken a second look at this naked girl. Now, however, just a glance at her made them feel like vomiting.
Ding Meng probably did not care about the girl's feelings at all. He must have dragged her broken body around the corridor, corners, stairs, bends, and other places as he pleased. It did not matter if her skin was fair, beautiful, or delicate. She would be covered in wounds from head to toe. It was simply too horrible to look at.
"Put her down!" Bai Langfei's eyes were bloodshot. It was obvious that he was so angry that his eyes were bloodshot.
Ding Meng glanced at him and could not help but laugh. "I thought the Bai family had sent some incredible experts. Trash like you, you're just here to die!"
"Arrogant!"
Zhuang Weiming did not know where his courage came from. He shouted sternly, "Ding Meng, you trespassed into the space station, committed murder in public, and killed a public servant. You have no regard for the Federation's laws. Do you know your crimes?"
Ding Meng glanced at him as if he was looking at an idiot. He could not even be bothered to answer this idiot.
"Which one of you is the station commander? Please come out!" Ding Meng said calmly.
"I am Zhou Xi!"
A man in military uniform walked out from the crowd. There were still some white hairs on his forehead, proving that this person was quite old.
Ding Meng said, "Let me ask you now. Was it your idea to implement traffic control on all five space stations on planet Phoenix?"
Before Zhou Xi could answer, Zhuang Weiming could not help but roar, "This is the military's internal affairs. Outsiders have no right to ask!"
Ding Meng stared at him like an arrow, but his tone was full of emotion. "Zhuang Weiming, I really admire you. Back then, you colluded with the extreme bandits and killed so many refugees. I didn't expect you to still be alive. Now that Fang Zhenghao is dead, you probably thought that no one would hold you accountable, so you attacked the refugee camp again, right?"
Faced with his fierce gaze, Zhuang Weiming could not help but take a few steps back. "I … I was just faithfully carrying out the orders of my superior!"
Ding Meng said impatiently, "I don't want to hear these excuses. If you can't give me a satisfactory explanation, you'll end up in a miserable state."
Zhuang Weiming was emboldened. "Ding Meng, I'm warning you. I'm the deputy commander of Planet Phoenix's space station. I'm an official appointed by the Holy Grail Federation. If you dare touch me, the Federation's judicial system will definitely not let you off. The laws of the Federation have always been fair and just. We will never condone murderers. If you …"
His voice was suddenly cut off because he was suddenly sent flying. It was as if a gust of wind had blown him away.
With a muffled bang, Zhuang Weiming's entire body slammed into the resting area's crystalline board with his arms and legs spread out. He seemed to have been embedded in it.
Following that, a control panel in the work area was also uprooted and smashed into Zhuang Weiming's back.
This control panel was made of metal and weighed at least a few hundred kilograms. If it hit someone, how could they possibly survive?
"Crack!" This was the sound of flesh and blood tearing apart. The control panel was like a hammer smashing into a cherry. Zhuang Weiming was instantly reduced to a pile of rotten flesh that slid down from the steel wall.
Ding Meng flicked his index finger slightly, and an orange-red star flew straight for the pile of flesh. With a bang, it burst into a raging fire …
The dozens of workers in the control center suddenly felt their limbs turn cold. Their superior was gone just like that. Not only was he dead, his spirit was probably gone as well. He had completely disappeared from this world.
"I don't think anyone will interrupt my questioning this time, right?" Ding Meng said calmly.
Zhou Xi was originally a little calm. His thoughts were actually similar to Zhuang Weiming's. They were official officials of the Federation after all. With this level of protection, the other party would probably have some reservations. However, Ding Meng did not even bat an eyelid and directly killed Zhuang Weiming. It could be said that he had killed him cleanly, leaving nothing behind.
This guy was a complete madman!
Zhou Xi came to a conclusion!
However, just as he was about to speak, Bai Langfei took the initiative to stop him. He stared at Ding Meng and said, "Originally, I only wanted to bring back Miss Dai. But since you killed him first, then the grudge between you and the Bai family is too big this time …"
Ding Meng had never argued with him when it came to twisting the truth. His hand was still holding the young girl's ankle. At this moment, his wrist suddenly twisted, and the young girl could no longer make a sound. The broken body lying on the ground twitched violently a few times, then stopped moving. However, her left leg had been twisted into a V-shape by Ding Meng.
Only then did Ding Meng raise his head to look at Bai Langfei and said word by word, "You talk too much nonsense!"
No matter how strong Bai Langfei's willpower was, he could not control himself at this moment. His face had already turned the color of pig liver. He flew more than twenty meters forward and threw a punch at Ding Meng's face.
