Chapter 546 (2/2)
“Wait!”
Tang Xiu, who was currently watching as his four men rushed into the small liner, suddenly had his face change. A look of disbelief flashed in his eyes, as he instantly retracted his spiritual sense.
“What is it, Grand Master?” Gu Xiaoxue turned her head and asked in surprise.
Tang Xiu didn’t answer, but strode toward the small liner instead. As he approached the liner, his feet floated up and he stepped in the air, finally stepping on the deck.
“Heavens! This is…”
Apart from Gu Xiaoxue, Gao Feng and the ten plus experts of the Everlasting Feast Hall were dumbfounded and tongue-tied upon seeing Tang Xiu float midair and board the passenger liner. Their hearts thumped faster. Although they were perfectly aware that one could fly in the air after their cultivation broke through to a high level, yet witnessing such a miraculous scene with their own eyes still shocked them.
“Every one of you- Out!!!”
Tang Xiu stood on the bow of the liner and sternly shouted.
At this moment, inside the cabin of the small liner, a dozen crew members and attendants of the ship came out of the cabin. Most of them were men, and there were four women among them, one of whom was a familiar face that Tang Xiu never dreamed of being here, much less in this kind of situation.
“Tang… Tang Xiu?”
Cheng Yannan also never expected to meet Tang Xiu here and looked a bit flustered, even her heartbeat hiked up and thumped faster.
Tang Xiu furrowed his brows deeply. While pointing to Cheng Yannan, he shouted in a deep voice, “Kill all of them but her!”
“Yes!”
The four stalwart men acted very quickly. Screams and yells unfolded as they killed dozens of people at great speed. Under Gu Xiaoxue’s command, their dead bodies were removed and left on the shore.
Burp…
Acid water came out from Cheng Yannan’s mouth. She had never seen such a bloody scene before, causing her to bend and vomit. A frightened expression was painted her face, as if she couldn’t believe that the order just issued a moment ago came from Tang Xiu.
While standing in front of Cheng Yannan, there was no thoughts of kill Cheng Yannan inside Tang Xiu’s mind, but he wanted to figure out why Cheng Yannan was here. This liner belonged to the Yao Family, and only someone they fully trusted could board it. After all, the issue of the Yao Family attempting to rent Clam Island was an absolute secret.
“Give her some water to rinse her mouth,” commanded Tang Xiu.
Immediately afterward, a stalwart man entered the cabin and took out a bottle of mineral water from the inside. He then handed it over to Cheng Yannan, who was no longer vomiting.
“Thank you!”
Cheng Yannan’s complexion was pale. After receiving the bottle of water, she took a sip and quickly rinsed her mouth, and then slowly looked up to Tang Xiu.
“Speak! Why are you here?” Asked Tang Xiu lightly.
“My uncle is Yao Qingteng, and my Cheng Family is participating in the renting of this Clam Island. I asked my uncle to bring me here,” answered Cheng Yannan after hesitating for a while.
“This is not what I asked,” said Tang Xiu in a heavy voice.
Cheng Yannan evaded his eyes, as she lowered her head and replied, “What do you want to know?”
“Yannan, I used to think of you as a good classmate and a friend. I was even your savior back then, if I have to say.” Tang Xiu coldly snorted. “I never thought that one day we’d need to conceal things from each when conversing. Regardless, you don’t have to say if you don’t want to. I won’t force you.”
Cheng Yannan suddenly looked up. She glanced at Gu Xiaoxue and the stalwart men in the surrounding and then said, “Can we talk in private?”
Tang Xiu nodded and looked at Gao Feng, “Remove and discard all the dead bodies and leave no traces. Take this liner to the sea and sink it.”
“Roger!” Gao Feng replied quickly.
Tang Xiu walked to Cheng Yannan’s side and grabbed her shoulder, and then took her flying straight to the beach. With his extremely fast speed, he had brought Cheng Yannan 100 meters away within seconds.
“Aah…”
Cheng Yannan, who was struck with dizziness and disoriented, finally got a firm foothold and turned around to look at the small liner, that was 100 meters away, with eyes full of disbelief.
“Tang Xiu, you…”
“Yea, you’re not dreaming,” said Tang Xiu lightly.
Cheng Yannan gulped her saliva. Her look was full of disbelief as she stared at Tang Xiu and stutteringly asked, “W-what are you, exactly? H-how can you… fly?”
