Return From The Immortal World
Chapter 816: Conflict at Sea
Although Gu Yan'er wanted to stay with Tang Xiu for a while, he was, however, being plagued with his injury and he ended up leaving even though he was reluctant to leave. Tang Xiu himself directly handed over the task of training Cheng Xuemei to Gu Xiaoxue and then stayed inside the Subaquatic Corvette to cultivate secretly.
In the blink of an eye, Tang Xiu and Cheng Xuemei were on the island for the third day. Tang Xiu was unaware that it was hundreds of nautical miles from its location, the two passenger ships that Tang Guosheng boarded and the members of the Tang Family Guards 1st and 2nd squads sailed through the wind and waves towards the Straits of Malacca.
The sea was rough and full of turbulent waves, yet Tang Guosheng stood straight on the front deck of the ship. His eyes were sparkling, yet cold and cold. Bad news from Duanmu Lin was almost impossible for him to accept. He was determined to find his grandson, Tang Xiu, even if he had to exterminate the rest of the underwater. He had to see his grandson if he was alive, but even if his grandson was dead, he also had to look at his corpse.
"Report!" A loud voice sounded outside the door.
Tang Min, who was behind Tang Guosheng, opened the door and then saw the captain of the 1st Guard force, Tang Rong, there. He then asked in a heavy voice, "There's a problem?"
"We looked at a fleet through our telescopes, to our front on the left. Two cruisers, a destroyer, and a medium-sized passenger ship. Judging from the sign on the hull, it should be the French fleet," Tang Rong reported.
Tang Guosheng turned around and looked at Tang Rong who was about to leave, and asked, "According to the information from Duanmu Lin, the French team that entered the three-star vestige was completely annihilated inside, is it really?"
"Yes," Tang Rong nodded slowly.
"There's no need to contact them because the French team members are all dead" Tang Guosheng said coldly. "However, do it carefully and stay alert. The Frenchman failed to get anything good this time and will likely be unhappy now. Beware of any provocation they may send us."
"I understand," Tang Rong nodded silently. He then turned around and walked out. As he walked a few steps, a young man came running towards him and said in a heavy voice, "Captain, the ship of the French fleet is separated from the rest of the fleet and is now racing towards our position."
"Tell everyone. Avoid liners as much as possible and do not involve them. We will change plans if they continue to chase after us," Tang Rong ordered in a heavy voice.
More than 20 minutes later.
Although the two lines of the Tang Family had deviated from the planned route and were about to take a detour to avoid the other party, the latter was still trying to intercept the two passenger ships. Therefore, Tang Guosheng personally came to the hospital. Although he did not want to get into trouble, trouble had come knocking on his door. His character was someone who never gave a second chance when he ordered in a deep voice, "Open communication with them and ask them what they really want!"
After a while, Tang Rong reported with a grim face, "Patriark, the other party asked us to stop sailing and demanded to inspect our ship."
Killing intent exploded in Tang Guosheng's eyes as he growled, "It's international waters! What right do the French sailors have to examine us? Tell them to leave immediately; otherwise we will take it as a provocation and an attack!"
Tang Rong agreed and communicated with the other party. After it was finally determined that the other party had no good intentions towards them, Tang Guosheng fell silent for a few seconds and ordered the ship to stop. As the other party's ship approached, Tang Guosheng appeared on the deck along with more than a dozen people.
After he came there, he clearly saw more than a dozen people who were both standing on top of the other passenger ship, he said, led by a burly man whose face was fully covered in a veil and who wore a gloved sword at his waist. The rest of the more than a dozen people by his side were also armed with cold weapons, most of which were swords and long swords
"Prepare to fight . "
Tang Guosheng might be old, but he was still the decisive one. He immediately issued an order after seeing the weapon the other party was carrying.
Whooshing sound! Whooshing sound! Whooshing sound! Whooshing sound!
Four figures darted forward from the other liner at an extremely high speed. They were like arrows launched; they crossed over twenty meters without borrowing any strength as they arrived in front of Tang Guosheng. By the time the four of them made a defensive stance, the burly leader floated in the air to fly and then stood in front of the four people in just a breath.
"Hmph ... China, yes?" the strong man coldly snorted with more killing intent in his eyes.
Tang Guosheng looked at the burly man as if he was facing a formidable enemy and said in a deep voice, "We are indeed Chinese. You Frenchman didn't get anything good out of the three-star remnants and is now rampaging and giving us trouble? You are really asking for death! "
The burly man replied mockingly, "I never thought that you would know about the three-star remains. It looks like you have height! Maybe four Chinese who came out of three-star remnants are hiding in your ship."
"Hidden?" Tang Guosheng sneered, "Why should our Chinese experts hide?"
"Since you don't have to hide anything, then why do you look like you're hiding something?" reply the burly man with scorn. "Bring them out and hand over the items they got from the remaining three stars and I'll keep your body intact. Else, don't blame me for being ruthless when I completely annihilate everyone on both your ships."
He was an elite expert trained by the Tang Family since childhood and had broken through to the level of a martial arts grandmaster at the age of 35, and then he retired from the army. After more than a year of cultivating, he reached the peak of a martial arts grandmaster six months ago, and was sent to the Eternal Feast Hall where he finally broke through to a higher level after some inhuman training. Currently, he was comparable to a medium-level Qi Refining expert.
A faint surprise could be seen flashing in the burly man's eyes. A burst of flames suddenly formed as he raised his hand and threw the flames forward to clash with Tang Rong's heavy punch.
THE EXPLOSION…
Tang Rong's complexion changed greatly. The scorching heat caused his fist to redden as his punch clashed with the flames. The two fire dragons broke away from the flames and moved along his arms to blast his chest.
One strike and Tang Rong who was at the intermediate level Qi Refining expert were severely hit and injured by his opponent.
The burly man did not continue to attack after winning the fight but arrogantly mocked, "You still want to hit me with your trivial strength? You've been bitten by more than you can chew. I warned you before. Hand over the things you got from the remaining three stars, otherwise I will slaughter all of you! "
Tang Guosheng's expression changed drastically. He never expected that this burly man would turn out to be an Elementalist, even an extremely powerful one. All the experts he brought today were the strongest armed forces of the Tang Family. Among them, Tang Rong was ranked among the best.
However, Tang Rong was so easily defeated and severely injured by them?
At this moment, Tang Guosheng felt somewhat bitter inside. What stature? Apart from the Amur Tiger before, when and where was he forced to eat such bitter abuse?
"DAD!"
Tang Min led two men and two women as they appeared beside Tang Guosheng with a hint of worry on his face. He propped up Tang Rong first and then looked at Tang Guosheng.
Tang Guosheng took a deep breath but did not notice Tang Min. Instead, he looked at the burly man and said, "You are indeed very strong, but what about your other people? Are they as strong as you? I've got a number of similar experts on both of my ships, no less than you. You want to eradicate us, but are you sure your people can survive to the end? "
"You? Cause a big loss for us? Just depending on you? Hahaha ..." the burly man scoffed, "When did you Chinese learn crap to scare people, huh?"
"Do I need to say something just to scare you?" reply Tang Guosheng coldly. "If you really think so, do it! It's the high seas here; it would be easy to destroy the corpses and leave no trace. I really want to see who will be completely annihilated — me, or your man!"
The burly man looked doubtful. Although he was very confident in his army, the enemy he had just fought was by no means weak. At least, there were only three people among his men who were stronger than that man. If these Chinese people had many stronger people than the man he had just fought, easily killing them was impossible.
"I want to get the items the Chinese got from the three-star remains, not to kill you. Hand it over, and we'll be gone soon."
"I don't need to say that you've found the wrong person. Even if we have those items, I will never hand them over to you," Tang Guosheng replied in a heavy voice.
The burly man was silent for a moment and then said slowly, "If so, then I will take a step back. Divide the things you have gained with us equally. We can share it if the technology product. Old man, this is the most I can offer you; don't try to challenge it. "
"Are you sure we have some items from the three-star vestige?" ask Tang Guosheng.
"I'm sure," the burly man replied bluntly.
Tang Guosheng took a deep breath, then stepped back a few steps and roared, "Everyone, listen to me! If these people dare to attack us, strike back immediately! We've been planning to get out without expecting to return. If we have to die today, we will die! But we have to drag them to hell with us! "
"YES!"
Dozens of members of the 1st and 2nd Guardian squads of the Tang Family emerged from the cabin one after another with a total of 62 people, but 61 were able to join the fight. Tang Guosheng was also aware of the two men and two women that Tang Min had brought along. He knew that these people were extremely powerful because they were experts that Tang Xiu had sent to protect the Tang Family.
"Basic jerk!"
The burly man cussed furiously and raised his hand. Two fire dragons instantly formed in his hand as he paced forward and waved his hand, sending an aggressive fire dragon to move forward towards Tang Guosheng.
