Singkuo's intelligence was very high, and the moment he was in a life-and-death crisis, he would erupt with even greater power. Death Dhyana Buddhist Master's betrayal made him furious, but he didn't lose his mind. His killing intent surged as he took out a roll of golden threads from his sleeve.
"Entangle."
The golden threads unfolded and wrapped around Death Dhyana Buddhist Master's ankles at lightning speed. After wrapping around his ankles in an instant, Singkuo pulled his arm and flung Death Dhyana Buddhist Master backward as his expression changed drastically and his body fell to the ground. Almost in an instant, he had overtaken Death Dhyana Buddhist Master's previous position, and his sprinting speed was even faster.
"Singkuo, you deserve to die!"
Death Dhyana Buddhist Master was furious, and his heart was filled with endless remorse. He had come all the way here with his companions because he saw that Singkuo was a talent. He wanted to persuade Singkuo to join them. However, who would've thought that he'd have to sacrifice the lives of six of his companions to save Xingkuo's life. Yet, at this very moment, Xingkuo had actually attacked him again.
Tan Xiu's lightning-fast figure appeared several tens of meters away from Death Dhyana Buddhist Master. As the divine sword slashed down, Death Dhyana Buddhist Master hastily dodged, but an immortal sword appeared out of thin air at his neck. Although the strike failed to tear his windpipe, it still tore open a bloody wound on his neck.
Tang An was injured at the moment, but she didn't care about it. Because Tan Xiu had issued a death order, he absolutely could not let the Death Dhyana Buddhist Master escape, so he once again entangled the Death Dhyana Buddhist Master like a maggot attached to a bone. Even if every move couldn't destroy the world, it could still erupt with great power, making the Death Dhyana Buddhist Master unable to fend for himself.
"Tan Xiu, there is no enmity between us. You don't have to force me, do you?" Full of grievances, Death Dhyana Buddhist Master roared furiously while dodging Tang An's storm-like attacks. He had experienced countless battles in his life, but he had never felt so vexed and frightened as he was right now.
Tan Xiu hovered in the air and said in a heavy voice, "Death Dhyana Buddhist Master, there was no deep hatred between us before, but now there is. It was you who meddled in other people's business, that's why you ended up like this. We have to get rid of Singkuo's wild ambition. And you haven't forgotten what you said before, have you? Hmph … I don't want to be remembered, so I can only be at ease if you die. "
"Is there really no room for maneuver?" Death Dhyana Buddhist Master snapped. Don't force me, or I'll use a forbidden technique. Even if I die, I'll drag you down with me. As long as you're willing to let me go, you don't have to do anything. I'll definitely kill that damned Singkuo. Also, I was just pretending to be brave before. How would I dare to really take revenge on you? Let me go, and we'll mind our own business. "
"Divine sword, sacrifice the heavens!"
Tan Xiu couldn't be bothered to talk to him anymore. As the Divine Sword slashed down, it forcefully blocked his escape route. Tang An's unpredictable attacks put Death Dhyana Buddhist Master in a serious crisis.
A crazed look emerged in Death Dhyana Buddhist Master's eyes. He clenched his teeth and the Buddhist staff in his hand suddenly split into two. A half-foot-long multi-legged centipede shot out from it and arrived in front of Tang An in the blink of an eye. Death Dhyana Buddhist Master, on the other hand, was already prepared to be severely injured by Tang An. He swept the two halves of his Buddhist staff horizontally to seal off Tang An's escape routes.
In mid-air …
Tan Xiu's complexion drastically changed. His figure suddenly swooped down while his arms kept forming a circle, guiding the divine swords to rain down on Death Dhyana Buddhist Master. Besieging the weak to rescue the weak was the only thing he could do at the moment. Unless Death Dhyana Buddhist Master took the initiative to give up the attack, he wouldn't have enough time to rescue Tang An.
"Golden Cicada Shedding its Carapace!"
Death Dhyana Buddhist Master roared. His Kasaya fluttered to the side in a flash and the two halves of his Buddhist staff pierced Tang An's shoulders in just a split second. The multi-legged centipede that had already arrived in front of Tang An landed on her neck and bit it.
Puff …
The rain of swords pierced Death Dhyana Buddhist Master's body, but his figure vanished into thin air the moment he crazily spurted out blood. When his figure flashed four or five meters away, he staggered and fell to the ground.
Teleportation?
Tan Xiu was secretly surprised, but he immediately rejected the idea. It was absolutely impossible to learn the teleportation technique unless one's cultivation had broken through to the Nascent Soul Stage. Death Dhyana Buddhist Master's strength was at most comparable to a middle-stage Gold Core cultivator, so it was impossible for him to perform teleportation. Moreover, teleportation usually covered a very long distance, but he only moved four or five meters away, indicating that he was just using some kind of magical footwork.
"DIE!"
Sword shadows flashed like the wind wherever the sword pointed.
Death Dhyana Buddhist Master's body violently trembled a few times. He lowered his head to look at his chest, and a look of despair suddenly appeared on his face because there was a fist-sized hole in his heart. Moreover, there were also bloody wounds on his shoulders and legs.
"Tan Xiu …"
Death Dhyana Buddhist Master shot a resentful look at Tan Xiu. Although his vitality was rapidly fading, he still soared into the sky as though he wanted to exhaust the last trace of power in his body to kill Tan Xiu.
"Hmph …"
Tan Xiu's killing intent was equally intense. He still couldn't figure out Tang An's situation, so he instantly threw two Exploding Talismans at the incoming Death Dhyana Buddhist Master.
"Boom …"
Death Dhyana Buddhist Master's body violently trembled. A look of despair appeared on his face as his neck was severed from the back by the divine sword. At this moment, a red light suddenly bloomed on the divine sword and a suction force was released, sucking the blood into the sword.
At this moment …
Tan Xiu could clearly feel that the power exuded by the divine sword had increased a lot compared to before. Moreover, his perception of the divine sword had also become stronger. After a few flashes, Tan Xiu appeared at Tang An's side. He saw that Tang An had taken out a dagger and killed the centipede. He reached out to support her, grabbed her wrist, and put his fingers on her pulse.
"Highly toxic?"
Tan Xiu's complexion slightly changed. He took out a few silver needles from his interspatial ring and instantly sealed several major acupoints on Tang An's neck. At the same time, his other hand quickly tore the black robe on Tang An's body. When her bare shoulders appeared in front of Tan Xiu, Tan Xiu had already inserted the last silver needle into the acupoints. He then pinched Tang An's shoulders with both hands and his fingernails instantly pierced into her flesh.
"Grand Master!"
Tang An was startled and a bit of panic could be seen in her eyes.
"Don't talk and don't circulate your energy," said Tan Xiu in a deep voice. "That centipede's venom is very strong. The poison has already reached your shoulders in just a few seconds. I must expel it from your body."
Tang An's restless heart finally calmed down after hearing it. She then nodded with a hint of shyness.
"Extract her blood and seal her veins."
Tan Xiu pulled out his fingernails. As his hands slowly left Tang An's shoulders, blood was sucked out from his palms. The blood that was sucked out was black and carried a hint of stench. But after a few seconds, it turned red.
Immediately after …
Tan Xiu shook off the blood and reached out to press the back of Tang An's neck. As his fingers slid on her neck, several silver needles shot out and quietly floated around. Blood splashed out from the spots where the silver needles were pulled out. Tan Xiu's fingers kept moving on Tang An's neck, so the bleeding process was much slower this time.
Huff …
A few minutes later, Tan Xiu released Tang An and looked at the dozens of people around him, shouting in a deep voice, "What the hell are you all doing here? Go and kill Singkuo! "
"Tang Guang has gone after Singkuo, Boss," said Jin Shi in a low voice. "We're too slow. If we catch up with him …"
"You must chase him even if you're slow," said Tan Xiu in a deep voice. "Remember, don't let him escape even if you have to block the road ahead. He's bound to become a big trouble in the future if we don't get rid of him. "
Upon hearing that, Jin Shi and the others immediately chased after Singkuo and the sinister youth. Even Singluen and his men also chased after them. As a matter of fact, Singluen was more eager for Singkuo's death than Tan Xiu. Only with Singkuo's death would he be able to sit on the Dark Shaman Clan's Patriarch seat without any worries in the future.
Tan Xiu took out a Holy Healing pill from his interspatial ring and stuffed it into Tang An's mouth. Then, he said in a low voice, "I've removed the toxins from your body and you're fine for the time being. But your injuries are very serious, so you must recuperate as soon as possible. I'll be your protector. "
"Please go after Singkuo, Grand Master!" Tang An shook her head. "I can do it myself."
Tan Xiu shook his head and said, "We're in a very critical period right now. No one knows when the enemy will come. Anyways, let's go back to the coconut plantation first. If my guess is correct, Kanaja should be there by now. We'll settle you down there and then I'll be your protector and recuperate. "
"Alright."
Tang An no longer refuted Tan Xiu's suggestion and let Tan Xiu hug her waist. Then, Tan Xiu took her to the sky and flew toward the direction of the abandoned coconut plantation.
At the entrance of the coconut plantation.
Kanaja was smoking a cigarette while looking at the helpless Zuo Daquan in front of him. He wouldn't have given Zuo Daquan any face had it been in the past. But now, Zuo Daquan's daughter turned out to be a good friend of Tan Xiu, which forced him to treat Zuo Daquan in a different light.
"You mean … you refused Mr. Tang's request before? And drove them out of your place? "asked Kanaja.
"That's right," said Zuo Daquan helplessly. I didn't even know his identity before, nor did I know what kind of relationship he has with the Huang Family of China. The Huang Family is my mortal enemy, and they're very powerful and have many powerhouses. If I were to shelter Tan Xiu and the others, it would bring danger to me, and the gains would definitely outweigh the losses. "
"You actually wasted such a great opportunity. You're really stupid." Kanaja shook his head and sighed. "Forget it. I don't care about this matter. This place is your turf, so hurry up and let your men deal with the aftermath. Of course, I'll also send my men to dispose of the corpses. Also, Mr. Tang asked me to help you rebuild this place, so I naturally won't neglect him. Deduct the money you owe me from the reconstruction cost! "
