Chapter 974: The Death of Karst
Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales
Karst was unable to believe what he was witnessed. He had never believed in any existence of a god in the world as he was an atheist. Yet, a scene that depicted a god-like existence which could only appear on TV was taking place before his eyes at this moment.
‘Am… Am I… having a dream? Is this an illusion?’
Shaking his head hard, Karst looked around. As he saw all of his men and the bikini girls wearing dumbstruck expressions with eyes trained on the handsome youth trodding the surface of the water towards them, he realized that neither was it a dream or illusion clouding his eyes.
“Are you Karst, the governor of Saipan?”
There was a smile on Tang Guang’s face, yet his eyes gave off a vibe of murderous intent somehow. Although he had received information that Karst took several of his men and brought a lot of ‘butterfly socialites’ on vacation at sea, he still had to spend quite a lot of energy and effort to find this man.
“Who are you?” asked Karst, vigilantly looking at Tang Guang.
“You don’t need to know who I am.” Tang Guang shook his head and smiled. “Just answer me. Are you Karst, the Governor of Saipan? Of course, you can refuse to answer, but for the price of your dead body becoming food for the fishes.”
Karst moved his hands to his back, only to find that his gun, usually holstered behind him, was left in the cabin. However, his eyes swept to his two men on either side of him before immediately moving. He quickly unholstered one of their guns, aiming its muzzle and saying in a deep, cold voice, “That’s correct. I’m Karst. Your distinguished self has a special background and is doing something I thought that only God could do. But I just recalled something all of a sudden; that you’re not any god, for this world has no god whatsoever!”
“Who said I’m not a god?” teased Tang Guang with a smile. “Many people view me as a god.”
“You’re wrong.” Karst sneered and said, “Hmph, you’re just a quite powerful ability user, no more. Your special ability should be water manipulation, right?”
“Me, an ability user?” responded Tang Guang with contempt. “You actually are comparing me to those ability users? Do feast your eyes carefully on what I’m capable of doing!”
Having said that, he slowly raised his arm. Two blobs of flame suddenly appeared on his palm that immediately invited exclamations of shock from the girls in bikinis on the yacht.
Pupils shrunk, Karst said with a shocked voice, “You are an Elementalist with water and fire attributes? You… who… exactly are you?”
Rolling his eyes in response, Tang Guang coldly snorted and said, “You got a frozen brain, huh? What a retard!”
The instant after, the two flames floating above his palms flashed and hit the yacht, leading to a violent explosion the moment they hit, killing Karst, his two bodyguards and all the bikini girls in just a second.
“Heng…” a cold snort was heard.
Tang An in her usual black suit and bronze mask coldly glanced at the exploding yacht and the floating corpses on the sea surface as she indifferently said, “You made a mistake. You talked too much, making you an unqualified assassin.”
“Who said that I’m an assassin in the first place?” grinned Tang Guang after turning around, “I’m always a warrior who openly charges forward in battle. It’s your role as an assassin who strikes from the dark, An.”
“Heh, ambushes and surprise attacks are always the better fight in battle,” sneered Tang An, “It’s best for you to learn spacetime-based spells, you know!”
“What I need is a higher level of cultivation and individual combat force, though you would definitely benefit from spacetime-based spells yourself.” Tang Guang waved and said, “Alright, you’ve told me this countless times already; aren’t you getting tired of bothering me? Haih, it seems that I need to speak with Boss whether he can keep you guarding him, saving myself from having you pester me every day.”
Tang An glared at him before she released her sword out of thin air. Sword energy then flashed, precisely striking all the dead bodies. Her figure then flickered and disappeared into the air.
Tang Guang rolled his eyes in response before he turned around and flashed in the direction of Saipan.

Tang Xiu enjoyed himself in the villa of the Lao Bay Resort, sunbathing and allowing the sea breeze to massage his skin. At the moment, he remembered Zhang Xinya since he felt that if she were to come back with him at this moment, she probably would stay by his side, massaging his arms and legs and devoting herself to serve him with her lovable manner.
As of late, she had practically been staying around him constantly and literally agreed to his every activity. She kept accompanying him often whenever he had things to do as long as they were together. But this time, Zhang Xinya didn’t come with him. She said that she liked Nine Dragons Island and was prepared to stay for a while there, mentioning that she should give herself a holiday and vacation.
Whoosh!
A blurry figure flashed from a distance and appeared in front of Tang Xiu in the blink of an eye. It was Tang An with her usual black robe and bronze mask as she greeted respectfully, “Karst is dead, Grand Master.”
“With you doing the job, I can rest assured about that, An,” said Tang Xiu with a smile. “Also, where’s Guang? How come you’ve reported alone?”
“Ah, about brother….” Replied Tang An with a helpless expression, “He… he went to find himself a woman.”
