Chapter 816 - Conflict at the Sea (2/2)

“Since you don’t need to hide anything, then why do you look like you’re hiding something?” retorted the stocky man scornfully. “Take them out and hand over the things they obtained from the three-star vestige and I’ll keep your bodies intact. Else, don’t blame me for being ruthless when I completely annihilate all the people on your two ships.”

“Depending on you?” Tang Rong paced a few steps forward and heavily punched the stocky man.

He was an elite expert trained by the Tang Family since childhood and had broken through to the level of martial arts grandmaster at the age of 35, and then he retired from the army. After over a year of cultivation, he reached the peak of a martial arts grandmaster six months ago, and was sent to the Everlasting Feast Hall where he finally broke through to a higher level after some inhumane training. At present, he was comparable to a middle-stage Qi Refining expert.

Faint surprise could be seen flashing in the stocky man’s eyes. A burst of flames suddenly formed as he raised his hands and threw the flames forward to clash with Tang Rong’s heavy punch.

BOOM…

Tang Rong’s complexion greatly changed. The blazing heat caused his fist to turn red the moment his punch clashed with the flame. The two fire dragons broke free from the flame and moved along his arm to blast his chest.

One strike and Tang Rong who was at the middle-stage Qi Refining expert was heavily blown and severely injured by his opponent.

The stocky man didn’t continue attacking after winning the bout but arrogantly mocked, “You still want to strike me with just that trivial strength of yours? You’ve bitten off more than you can chew. I already warned you before. Hand over the things you got from the three-star vestige, else I’ll butcher every one of you!”

Tang Guosheng’s expression drastically changed. Never did he expect that this stocky man turned out to be an Elementalist, even a horrifyingly 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.

Yet, Tang Rong was so easily defeated and was heavily injured by them?

At this time, Tang Guosheng felt somewhat bitter inside. What was his stature? Apart from the Amur Tiger before, when and where had he been forced to eat such bitter abuse?

“FATHER!”

Tang Min led two men and two women as they appeared next to Tang Guosheng with a bit of worry on her face. She propped up Tang Rong first and then looked at Tang Guosheng.

Tang Guosheng inhaled deeply but didn’t pay attention to Tang Min. Instead, he stared at the stocky man and said, “You’re indeed very powerful, but what about the rest of your people? Are they as powerful as you? I have a similar number of experts on my two ships, no less than you. You want to eradicate us, but are you sure your men can last to the end?”

“You? Causing heavy losses for us? Just depending on you? Hahaha…” the stocky man mocked, “When did you Chinese learn shit to scare people with, huh?”

“Do I need to say anything just to scare you people?” spat back Tang Guosheng coldly. “If you really think so, bring it on! It’s the high seas here; it will be easy to destroy the corpses and leave no trace. I really want to see who will be utterly annihilated—me, or your men!”

The stocky man looked hesitant. Although he was very confident about his men, the enemy he 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 had many people stronger than the man he just fought, easily killing them was out of the question.

“I want to get the things you Chinese obtained from the three-star vestige, not to kill you. Hand them over, and we’ll leave immediately.”

“I don’t need to say that you’ve found the wrong people. Even if we do have those things, I would never hand them over to you,” replied Tang Guosheng in a deep voice.

The stocky man was silent for a moment and then said slowly, “If so, then I’ll take a step back. Divide the things you’ve obtained equally with us. We can share it if its technological products. Old man, this is the most I can offer you; don’t even try to challenge it.”

“Are you sure we have some items from three-star vestige?” asked Tang Guosheng.

“I am sure.” answered the stocky man 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 at once! We already planned to go out without hoping to come back. If we must die today, we shall die! But we must drag them to the hell with us!”

“YES!”

Tens of members of the 1st and 2nd Guardian squads of the Tang Family appeared from the cabin one after another for a total of 62 people, but 61 that could enter the fight. Tang Guosheng was also aware of the two men and two women brought by Tang Min. He knew that these people were very powerful as they were experts Tang Xiu sent to protect the Tang Family.

“You fucking old shit!”

The stocky man cursed furiously and raised his hand. Two fire dragons instantly formed in his hands as he paced forward and waved his arms, sending the aggressive fire dragons to flush forward towards Tang Guosheng.
