Chapter 994 - The Final Stand (2/2)

The same intense killing intent also flew out from Tang Xiu. He had no idea about Tang An’s current condition now, so he instantly unleashed two Explosion Charms upon seeing the monk who threw himself to him.

BOOM…

Death Dhyana Buddhist Master’s body shook greatly. A look of despair was evident as the divine sword came slashing his neck. Further, a blood-colored blob suddenly appeared which was sucked into the sword.

At this time, Tang Xiu could clearly sense that the divine sword’s might had been greatly increased and his sense of control over its power greatly improved. His body flickered a few times before he appeared next to Tang An who had taken out a dagger and killed the centipede. He then grabbed her wrist to check her pulse.

‘A vicious venom?’

Tang Xiu’s complexion changed. He swiftly took several silver needles out of his interspatial ring and instantly sealed up several acupoints in Tang An’s neck. At the same time, his other hand quickly ripped Tang An’s robe, revealing her shoulder in order to pierce the last acupoint there. He quickly grabbed her shoulder and hurriedly used his nails to pierce a certain spot on her flesh.

“Grand Master!”

Tang An was shocked and looked puzzled.

“Don’t speak, and don’t circulate your energy,” ordered Tang Xiu with a deep voice. “The centipede poison is very potent; it has flowed into your shoulders. I must force it out of your system.”

Upon hearing this, Tang An no longer felt strained. Instead, a hint of shyness flashed on her face and she silently nodded.

“The blood must be forced out and some veins must be sealed up.”

He retracted back his finger that sealed the spot, while his other hand slowly traced Tang An’s shoulder to control the blood and extract it out into his palm. The extracted blood was black and smelled a bit pungent originally, but turned red after a few seconds.

Shortly after, Tang Xiu threw the extracted blood away. He continued by holding Tang An’s neck, while his other hand’s finger began pinching and stroking her neck, followed by him pulling out several needles that pierced the acupoints. Blood also sprayed out from each point that was originally pierced by the needles. It kept flowing out, along with the constant pinching of Tang Xiu’s finger, although the extraction was now much slower.

Whoosh…

A few minutes later, Tang Xiu loosened his grip on Tang An and looked at the dozen people around him, shouting in a heavy voice, “What the hell are you doing here?! After Singkuo!”

“Tang Guan has gone to chase him, Boss,” replied Jin Shi in a low voice. “Our speed is too slow to pursue him…”

“No matter how slow you are, just go and kill him!” scolded Tang Xiu with a deep voice. “I don’t care if the road is blocked or not, you must not lose him. He’ll become a big headache later if we don’t kill him now.”

The moment his order came out, Jin Shi and the rest immediately moved toward the direction of Singkuo and the outlandish youth. Singluen and his men also followed suit. Singluen was the one who was impatient to see Singkuo die since he would have no worries left in the future after he took over the Dark Shaman Clan’s Patriarchal seat.

After that, Tang Xiu took out the Holy Healing pill from his interspatial ring and stuffed it into Tang An’s mouth, speaking in a low voice, “I’ve forced out the poison from your system; it won’t affect you for the time being. But your injuries are quite serious, so you must recuperate for some time. I’ll protect you.”

“Just chase Singkuo, Grand Master! I’ll be fine by myself.” Tang An shook her head.

“No. Your condition is critical!” Tang Xiu shook his head and said, “No one knows whether there’s another enemy coming here. We’re going back to the coconut plantation. Kanaja should have arrived there if my guess is correct, so we’re heading back. I’ll be staying there to protect you after we get there.”

“Alright.”

Tang An no longer refuted Tang Xiu’s suggestion and let him grab her waist as they flew into the sky and headed toward the ruined coconut plantation.

At the coconut plantation.

Kanaja was smoking a cigarette and stared at the helpless-looking Zuo Daquan before him. He wouldn’t have given him face previously. But, after learning that this man’s daughter was on good terms with Tang Xiu, he had no option but to treat him differently.

“Speaking bluntly… you rejected Mr. Tang’s request before and drove him out of your place?” questioned Kanaja.

“Yeah. It’s because I didn’t know his identity before, neither did I know what kind of relationship he had with the Huang,” answered Zuo Daquan with a helpless face. “The Huang Family is my mortal enemy. It is a powerful clan that has many experts and a formidable force. I thought that I would suffer more than I would gain if I were to give him shelter.”

“Dammit. You really just wasted a huge chance. That’s so fucking stupid, you know that?” Kanaja shook his head and sighed, “Alas… forget it. Nothing I can do about it. This place is yours, so tell your men to deal with the damage here quickly. Of course, I’ll also assign my own men to dispose of those dead bodies, and I won’t neglect my own part to rebuild your place since Mr. Tang asked me to help you with that. You can deduct the reconstruction cost of your place from the money you owe me!”
