Chapter 1118: To Die Out of Loyalty

Translator: Exodus Tales  Editor: Exodus Tales

Of the entire Tang Sect, Tang Xiu was the strongest after Gu Yan’er and Ji Chimei. Even Xue Yu, who had broken through to the Spirit Formation Stage, was still inferior to him. But the strongest one behind them was Tang An. Not only was she an expert at the late-stage of Golden Core, but she also mastered a secret art on spatial law and some of the law of time.

In terms of magical spells, there was perhaps not many people as well versed at it in Tang Sect, but Tang An was definitely one. Not only did she like to study various classics on arrays, but she was also very keen on studying magic spells and had an achievement on some of them.

The flames that emerged in the sea of fire emitted a faint blue luster. Cultivators from the Immortal World would definitely recognize that fire as the True Flame in the legends.

Wang Sheng was shaken, his eyes nearly jumping out. Tang An’s power was already outrageous, yet he never expected her to be an ability user—a fire bender.

“What the heck is this flame?!”

He instantly retreated backward due to his keen sense warning him that this was absolutely not an ordinary flame. The flame he had unleashed was even actually forced to retreat when the blue flame appeared.

Tang An’s figure vanished once again, but her immortal sword was still hovering in the air, blocking off every possible route to escape for Wang Sheng.

“SCRAM!!!”

Wang Sheng furiously bellowed after evading a strike of the immortal sword when suddenly, he felt his body go stiff and a chilling sensation hit his neck. It turned out to be a dagger that suddenly appeared out of the blue and was placed on his neck.

“You come with me.”

Tang An’s chilling voice passed to Wang Sheng’s ear as her figure appeared at the man’s side.

The killings in the Golden Coast club were progressing quickly. All the members of the Darkwind organization who tried to resist were all killed ruthlessly, whereas tens of them who chose not to were stunned and discarded before the tens of experts from the Special Abilities Bureau brought them to the square to be apprehended.

When Tang Xiu arrived at the square, he could clearly see the beaming smile on Duanmu Lin’s face.

“Senior Duanmu!” shouted Tang Xiu with a smile.

The man happily nodded and said, “I never thought the operation would go this well, Tang Xiu. You just literally made them collapse from the inside and then easily destroyed them. These two former members of the Darkwind are not bad. They deserve to be rewarded.”

Tang Xiu calmly glanced at Guo Tao and Wen Feng and cooly said, “It’s as you say, Senior Duanmu. They did great merit this time, so I’m going to reward them later.”

Nodding slightly in response, Duanmu Lin glanced around and his beaming smile slowly disappeared. He even furrowed his brows and asked, “Have you found any trace on Wang Sheng?”

Zhu Long shook his head. “We got nothing. It’s like he just vanished. But he should still be in the clubhouse since a few people saw him just 10 minutes ago.”

“Keep searching for him! I don’t care if you turn everything upside down, but you still must find him!” Duanmu Lin ordered in a heavy voice.

Tang Xiu’s expression shifted and he shook his head. “I don’t think it’s necessary to find him, though.”

“What do you mean?” Duanmu Lin was confused.

Right after he asked, two figures suddenly appeared in front of him. Donned in black night suit and a bronze mask was Tang An, whereas the one who looked distressed and seriously injured was Wang Sheng.

“This is…”

Duanmu Lin looked ecstatic after seeing Wang Sheng’s face. He truly admired Tang Xiu wholeheartedly. This young man was not only powerful, he even had quite a subordinate with amazing skills under him. He previously thought that Wang Sheng had escaped, but it turned out that Tang Xiu’s subordinate had seized him already.

With eyes that seemed able to perceive people’s minds, Tang Xiu swept over Duanmu Lin’s face before he instantly appeared in front of Wang Sheng. He exerted a great deal of his energy to hit tens of vital points around the man’s body and completely sealed them. Afterward, he paced two steps backward and spoke with a faint smile. “You’re the Chief Intel Operative of the Darkwind branch in China, yes?”

Wang Sheng just stared at Tang Xiu in response and stayed silent for several seconds. Then, he slowly said, “You should be able to see the internal condition of my body. Most of my life force has gone, and I can only last for a few minutes more. I’m afraid you won’t have more chances if you don’t get the answer you want.”

“Not really.” Tang Xiu shook his head and smiled. “It may work if you say that to others, but it’s useless to me. You’re the Head of the Darkwind branch in China, Wang Sheng. You should know my existence, and the most detailed information about me must have been sent to your desk once, right?”
