Chapter 1001: The Battle of Words
“You’re the one who’s gonna die!”
Singshou roared furiously as his body was similarly rising up into the air. The dark fog billowed and the black machete formed its own shadow to powerfully clash with the sword light head-on.
“Who are you?”
However, Singshou’s face drastically changed. Just as his voice left his mouth, a sword light flashed lightning-fast from his bottom left. He was unable to dodge it as it penetrated his left lower ribs. The sword then continued sweeping at his ribs, cutting off several.
“Lightning…”
Tang An appeared all of a sudden as an undetectable tiny lightning bolt came after the sword light and drilled Singshou’s body. At the moment his body stiffened, the immortal sword exited his body and slashed his neck.
Puff…
The sneaky strike led to insta-kill.
Tang Guang was dumbfounded. He just made his intentions clear regarding this fight! Why did his sister, Tang An, still move and attack his target? His fury erupted as he watched the decapitated body of Singshou fall from the air, furiously shouting, “Who the hell told you to strike him, An?!”
The black-suited Tang An appeared out of thin air and glared back at Tang Guang coldly. Then she indifferently said, “It’s Grand Master’s intention to kill him. He was an enemy that must be neutralized; he doesn’t wish for you to temper yourself at this time. Grand Master said he’ll find you the opponent you need later, but now is the time to kill the enemies in order to help Singluen take over the patriarch seat of the Dark Shaman Clan.”
Grand Master’s order?!
Tang Guang’s anger froze instantly. After a long while, only then did he shake his head and let out a bitter smile. He floated down to Tang Xiu’s front and spoke with a dry smile, “That was a good opportunity for me to whet myself, Grand Master. I even had a feeling that I’d have a breakthrough once I killed that guy.”
“There are important things I need to do; I don’t have the time to waste here,” replied Tang Xiu lightly. “I just told you through An that I’ll give you the well-matched opponent you need, didn’t I? But now is not the appropriate time for that.”
Tang Guang heaved a deep breath and respectfully said, “I understand, Grand Master.”
Tang Xiu nodded in response and looked at the group of Dark Shaman Clan experts whose complexions were now extremely ugly, staring with dread and fear. He said in a deep voice, “13 Shaman Guardians, you should’ve understood power clearly. You guys won’t be able to stop us, so know your limit and give way! Otherwise, I don’t mind resorting to slaughtering you all in your own home!”
At this time, the 13 Shaman Guardians were in shock due to the situation before them. They were Singshou’s seniors who had helped instruct his cultivation. Later on, Singshou surpassed their cultivation levels, making them no longer necessarily his match even if all of them cooperated in fighting him. And yet, how come he just got killed like that?
They were all the top soldiers and the most loyal warriors of the Dark Shaman Clan, but it didn’t mean that they were not afraid of death. The death of Singshou sent a chill down their spines as thoughts to retreat filled their minds.
The dozens of guards all looked frightened and retreated backwards. In just a few seconds, they had already paced back in front of the 13 Shaman Guardians. Should any of them shout to retreat, they would very likely run and hide far away immediately.
The captain of the 13 Shaman Guardian quickly conversed with his comrades. After a short while, he then shouted, “These people are courting their own death by entering our site, so we shall fulfill their wish. Everyone, retreat back into the clan and wait for the order to fight back!”
In that instant, more than 20 people quickly ran and entered the Dark Shaman Clan’s land.
Disdain flashed in Tang Xiu’s eyes as he issued an order, “Let’s head inside! No need to be merciful if you encounter any resistance!”
At this time, Singluen had already rushed back to Tang Xiu’s side. He glanced at Singshou’s dead body, causing him to unceasingly shiver inwardly. He had never been close to Singshou and even feared the fella a bit. But seeing that this guy unexpectedly died in by the hands of Tang Guang and Tang An sent a chill to his heart.
He already knew how powerful Tang Xiu’s individual prowess was. He was aware that the collaboration of Tang Guang and Tang An was not necessarily enough to contain Tang Xiu. But the collaboration of the two people was enough to kill Singshou. Does that mean Tang Xiu has the ability to kill his father? If his father vehemently refused to step down from his position as the clan patriarch, will he issue an order to slaughter all the members of the Dark Shaman Clan?
Suddenly, a pang of regret filled his heart. He regretted letting his own anxiousness and eagerness lead to wolves getting into his own house. If Tang Xiu were to order to annihilate the entire Dark Shaman Clan, he would then become the sinner for his clan’s demise.
“Tang Xiu…,” amid his worries and restlessness, Singluen called out.
“I know what you wanna say, Singluen.” Tang Xiu raised his hand to interrupt him and said indifferently, “You can rest your worries! I did say that I’d resort to slaughtering in your home, but I won’t carry it out. Just chill out. It’s all to make us meet your old man smoothly, that way nobody else in your clan needs to die and you can become the patriarch. Besides, you can take advantage of this opportunity to weed out those who are hostile to you, no?”
“No, I can’t do that.” Singluen shook his head.
