Taking Control of The Empire, The New Dragon Island

Puhaman had submitted!

In fact, he had offered up his divine spirit origin energy with nary any hesitation, making the process unexpectedly quick.

Meng Lei had initially thought that he'd have to go through a lengthy coercion-cum-wheedling process before he could subdue the Dead Souls half-deity—after all, he was an evil ancient fiend and a Dead Souls half-deity, so how would he possibly submit to him that easily?

Snap!

Snap!

The Gods-Slaying Spear jabbed forward repeatedly, easily breaking the ten chains shackling Puhaman.

Having regained his freedom, Puhaman burst into loud, excited laughter as he exclaimed, "Kekeke! I'm finally out!"

It was just a shame that his laughter didn't hold even a tinge of might. Instead, it sounded incredibly eerie, as if it were the wailing of vengeful spirits from hell!

Eerie, sinister, and terrifying, it sounded awfully creepy!
