"In the past, Europeans refer to dragons as calamities, mainly because the dragons were just too powerful, so powerful that every effort a tribe or a country put in was destroyed within a night. Since then, humans were hoping to have power, a power that would allow them to take on the dragons..."

"We now have access to magic, but after obtaining our own power, we realized just how strong the dragons are. Our magic is nothing but breezes and tiny waves to them. Even the Super Level Magic that many people admire is not enough to penetrate a dragon's scales. Hence, no matter how developed the magic civilizations in the past were, or even today, the ancient dragons remain inviolable. Luckily, nature is never biased toward a certain species. The ancient dragons have almost zero reproductive ability. The dragons that most people encounter nowadays are merely pseudo-dragons or crossbreeds… yet those people dare call themselves dragon slayers!

"The dragon under my feet is a real dragon. It has its name, its history, and the supreme power of a dragon. Not only will I, Su Lu, fulfill the ambition of humans from antiquity, I'll show the world that the dragons are inferior to us! Ancient gods, devils, or demons… they do not rule this world. We rule the world!"

Su Lu was standing on the cliff of Mount Tyrant. His speech was delivered with power, as if it would spread across the entire Continent.

Mo Fan could not sense his aura, yet it did not mean he was not strong. The area had become part of his aura; even the weather was under his control!

Mo Fan had wondered if any human could possibly challenge the Black Dragon Emperor after he escaped from the cliff with Asha'ruiya. He highly doubted it, but today, Su Lu was standing there to do the impossible!

"No matter how ambitious you are, it disgusts me that you're using children's hearts for it!" Mu Ningxue blurted out, interrupting Su Lu's ambitious speech. It dragged the man whom everyone regarded as a legend back to cruel reality!

They were using children's hearts to carry out the Ritual that would subdue the dragon, just to prove that humans were the ruler of the world, yet were they still worthy to be admired after what they did!?

"Children's hearts? I only needed the Tyrant Titan's hearts!" Su Lu exclaimed, staring at Mu Ningxue.

Ferran's expression shifted as soon as he heard the words. He blurted out, "Master Su Lu, we've prepared the ingredients you need. Let's hurry up and subdue the dragon. At last, our efforts over the years have not been in vain!"

"Ferran, what's going on here?" Su Lu demanded.

The Magic Associations? They always promoted how sacred the role of Mages was, yet they turned out to be so corrupt! What rights did they have to put themselves above the Black Vatican and the Guild of the Wicked?

"I see, I was wondering how you all find this place when I didn't invite you here," Su Lu realized.

"Don't you dare achieve some great milestone of mankind while doing such evil acts. If you didn't give your men permission to murder the children, I might actually be impressed by your deeds. However, you are more of a hypocrite than the Red Cardinals of the Black Vatican, who blatantly express their ambition to destroy everything!" Mo Fan harangued him.

"How could I do such outrageous acts as the President of the Asia Continent Magic Association? You've come to demand justice, I'll serve you justice as you wish. Ferran, you have one minute to explain everything to me, and you better not lie to me!" Su Lu stared at Ferran.

"Well… President, basically, I asked my reliable subordinate to try his best to look for the Tyrant Titan's hearts, yet that useless guy failed to collect enough hearts. He ended up colluding with the Silver Ornament Master of the Guild of the Wicked, Bartholomew, to replace the hearts we were lacking with some inhumane methods. I don't really..." Ferran sounded unsure of himself.

"Do you know about it?" Su Lu asked.

"I...I only learned about it when..." Ferran replied haltingly

"You turned a blind eye to it, am I right?" Su Lu demanded.

"No, I didn't..." Ferran was nervous.

"If you didn't, why did you ask Priest Bude to intervene with our investigation? If I didn't arrange for them to follow you secretly, we would never have known that the people of the Magic Associations were animals disguised with human skin!" Mo Fan grunted.

"Mo Fan, I believe you've misunderstood Master Su Lu. We didn't know the Tyrant Titan's hearts were tied up with something so brutal. You can explain the details to us after today. We promise you that we'll find out the truth to serve the kids justice," the Head of the Donghai Magic Association intervened.

The Head of the Donghai Magic Association clearly recognized Mo Fan and Mu Ningxue. Fanxue Mountain's influence was constantly growing in the Donghai region!

"The Asia Continent Magic Association… the call is yours. It doesn't matter if you admit it now, since minor characters like us don't stand a chance against you. You can easily silence us here, so there's nothing to be afraid of. After all, I've met people that are just as bad!" Mo Fan persisted.

"Mo Fan, don't be so reckless! Many of us here are playing important roles in our respective organizations. There are always vermin and heartless people in the system. Even I would try my best to find out the culprit, let alone someone as fair and righteous as Master Su Lu," the Head of the Donghai Magic Association said.

"Throw Bartholomew off the cliff!" Su Lu ordered suddenly.

Bartholomew was indeed among the crowd, standing close to the man with a hat. He shuddered when he heard the words.

He had put in so much effort to gather the children's hearts for these authorities, yet they were demanding he be tossed off the cliff?

They were destroying the bridge after crossing the river!
