...L.O.S.E 69 - Bloody River...
Tang Xia's change in attitude certainly shocked Hu San greatly. On knowing Tang Xia's true cultivation level, Hu San immediately kept his distance while bringing the two together.
“I thought you were Princess Tang Xia!” hu San said while flowing Qi energy on his two fused palms.
“You can call me Princess or whatever it is! None of that matters to me!” Tang Xia observed the water around the ship that suddenly surged and formed a whirlpool.
“I'll kill you and bring your head, Princess! This way I can get the high post of Tang Empire military force!” Hu San smiled full of ambition and was unaware of Tang Xia acting so calm.
“Do as you please if you survive this attack of mine..” With his massive Qi energy and centered on his sword blade, Tang Xia stared intently at Hu San before releasing a sharp slash.
“Gema of Death!”
The slash that stopped the water wave and cut off Hu San's right hand left all the pirates who were about to aim at the arrow shocked.
“What happened?” Hu San seemed confused when he realized that his right hand had been severed.
Tang Xia did not waste it on this opportunity and ran shortening the distance. Then with his nimble swordplay, Tang Xia finished off one after another of Han Xiong's bodyguards who were also members of the Demon Shark Pirates.
In such a short time Tang Xia had already destroyed many members of the Demon Shark Pirates. Even the rain of fire arrows that pointed at him was completely meaningless.
“Maybe your cultivation is at the level of the Sky Realm! But at this level there is much that distinguishes it! I'll show you how different our abilities are!” Tang Xia smiled sinisterly as he flicked his bloodstained sword.
The aura around Tang Xia was heavy and made a breath of tightness. Besides that Tang Xia could neutralize any kind of attack that contained Qi energy. The rain of attacks from the eleven pirate ships gave no meaning at all.
“What are you doing?! Quickly attack him and help me!” hu San shouted in despair and made Tang Xia disappointed.
“Hah? I thought you were acting arrogant at first! Look at you now! How embarrassing!” Tang Xia did not finish off Hu San and chose to destroy the Demon Shark Pirate ship.
It was also then that Hu San realized that Tang Xia really possessed abilities far above him even though both of them were both Celestial Realm Cultivators.
Desperate at the sight of Tang Xia's abilities made Hu San speechless as he watched one pirate ship after another being destroyed.
“Spirit Devil - Ruyue!”
Tang Xia took out his strongest sword technique and smiled coldly with a bloodied body. This sighting made Hu San's body shudder in horror. How could a girl as beautiful as Tang Xia do this? That was the question Hu San was asking.
“Pull in and destroy all these bastards!”
Moreover, all the inhabitants of Shendong waters who tried to attack Tang Xia were killed without a fight. The Devil Shark and the Beast Crab were also victims of Tang Xia's furious ferocity.
Of all that left only Hu San who was grieving. With a cold gaze and calm steps, Tang Xia climbed over the water and approached Hu San.
“Is there no last word you want to say?” tang Xia said as he flicked his sword and showed how sharp his sword was.
Hu San did not say anything and stepped back when he saw Tang Xia approaching. In just two seconds, Hu San was already lifeless as Tang Xia's sword slash cut off his head in one slash.
“Our plan succeeded Brother Shu..” Tang Xia flicked his sword with a faint smile and noticed the many body pieces floating in the river.
There were a few Devil Sharks that Tang Xia had deliberately let live and they ate the flesh and body pieces of the Demon Shark Pirates.
Then Tang Xia jumped up and observed the situation from the air while looking at Shu En who was saying something to Han Xiong.
“I'm still upset with that guy! I must refrain from killing him because he is a precious pawn!” tang Xia said and took out a white devil mask from the Night Room.
After seeing Shu En finish his business with Han Xiong, only then did Tang Xia signal Shu En to continue traveling through the airway by flying.
Shu En also found out Tang Xia's location easily and immediately greeted.
“Sister Xia, I have used Shen Long's techniques and made a death pact with that person. Does it matter if I kill your lover?” Shu En deliberately stroked Tang Xia and made the black-colored sword touch his neck with an enormous flow of Qi energy.
“Do you want your head to be detached from your body?!” tang Xia threatened.
“Are you sure you'll kill me, Big Brother Xia?” Shu En tried to smile but the cold that touched his neck made him not express himself like that anymore.
“Stop that joke! I like men stronger than me and get my recognition! Talk about that trash again, I'll kill you!” Tang Xia was really angry and made Shu En gulp.
“Did I not fall under the criteria of your dream man, Sister Xia?” Shu En asked in a soft voice.
Tang Xia sheathed his sword and smiled cynically, “Who knows? In my eyes you are nothing more than a stupid little brother!”
“Hah? What did you say just now?!” Shu En was a little unaccepting.
The two sparred a little before Tang Xia finally intimidated Shu En and made the young man fall silent again.
While the two continued on their way to Han Province, Emperor Tang held a meeting with some of the Tang Empire's military higher-ups.
