Xu Nian and Xuan Hong both fled rapidly toward the distance.
However, they ultimately underestimated the situation.
Soon they discovered that they were surrounded by Sea Shark Demon Beasts on all sides.
If there's anything the undersea Demon Beasts didn't lack, it was their frightening numbers.
The total number from all directions was no less than two hundred thousand.
"Damn, the Shark Emperor must be insane!"
Xuan Hong couldn't help but curse.
Being encircled by nearly two hundred thousand of the Shark Clan Demon Beasts.
Even if these were the lowest-level Sea Shark Demon Beasts,
it would be enough to make one's scalp tingle.
Xu Nian's mouth also twitched for a mont.
Now he truly appreciated just how terrifying the force of the undersea Demon Beasts could be.
Among these two hundred thousand Sea Demons, there were no less than thirty thousand that were of the Demon King Level or above.
There were no less than ten thousand at the Demon Saint Level.
Even the Demon Emperors numbered no less than one thousand.
Faced with such a fearso number, Xu Nian simply couldn't imagine.
Engaging in combat with such a large army of Demon Beasts,
even Xu Nian had no confidence that he could contend against them.
"Buzz!"
Just then, a commotion arose from within the Shark Clan group.
Following, the sharks parted, and a figure walked forward from the front.
Seeing this figure, Xu Nian knew who it was.
It was the Red-Eyed General, one of the Ten Great Generals of the Shark Clan.
He was also the one in charge of apprehending the associates of Lie Tian.
Upon receiving information from below,
he left the massive Shark Clan army to this place.
Finally encircling these two associates of Lie Tian.
"Are you two accomplices of Lie Tian?" Red-Eyed asked Xu Nian and Xuan Hong with a cold voice.
His tone was equally haughty and domineering,
just like the middle-aged man they had encountered before.
"You've got it wrong, I don't even know any Lie Tian," Xu Nian said.
"Hmph, if you don't know Lie Tian, then why were you running?" Red-Eyed coldly interrogated.
Xu Nian's mouth twitched again.
Such a question was truly idiotic.
Seeing such a terrifying army charging towards you, you wouldn't run?
Seemingly realizing the stupidity of his own question, Red-Eyed continued to question coldly, "The Guard Commander who was killed, it was you two, wasn't it?"
"Correct, it was us who killed him, but they were the ones who tried to kill us first; we had no choice but to defend ourselves," Xu Nian replied.
"Hmph, don't you know the cri for killing soone of my Shark Clan? Kid, you look to be a human, are you? A human dares to trespass in the territory of my Shark Clan, are you seeking death?" Red-Eyed scoffed once more.
Xu Nian shook his head helplessly.
It seems today's events would likely not have a peaceful resolution.
"Senior Xuan Hong, once we begin, we'll fight our way out together!" Xu Nian said to Xuan Hong through a ntal transmission.
"Kid, you don't need to worry about . My turtle shell is extrely hard; these little sharks can't hurt . As for you, you'd better be careful," Xuan Hong responded via ntal transmission.
Xu Nian was left speechless.
He knew full well that his previous remark was completely unnecessary when he thought of the old turtle's abnormal defenses.
"Charge! Kill them."
Red-Eyed imdiately gave the order.
The two hundred thousand Sea Shark Demon Beasts rushed directly towards Xu Nian and Xuan Hong.
Xu Nian imdiately summoned his Immortal Sword,
ready to carve a bloody path through the enemy.
"Stop!"
However, at that mont, a commanding shout ca from the distance.
All the Sea Sharks halted in their tracks.
Xu Nian and Xuan Hong were also taken aback as they looked toward the newcor.
"White Zero, what are you doing?" Red-Eyed asked the newcor in a cold voice.
Xu Nian imdiately understood the identity of the newcor.
White Zero, too, was one of the Ten Great Generals of the Shark Clan.
"The Shark Emperor commands that you must not be rude to the two distinguished guests and orders you to imdiately invite them into the palace; otherwise, you need not return to see him," White Zero declared in a cold voice.
"What?" Red-Eyed obviously couldn't believe it.
However, he knew that White Zero's words could not be false.
He just couldn't understand how this human could possibly be a distinguished guest of the Shark Emperor?
In the past, any human cultivator who invaded their territory would end up as a al in their bellies.
Moreover, this human had so connection with Lie Tian.
Xu Nian and Xuan Hong were sowhat astonished.
They hadn't expected the Shark Emperor to actually invite them.
This really piqued their curiosity.
Could the Shark Emperor recognize them?
"Distinguished guests, I was truly offensive just now, please forgive . Since the Shark Emperor commands it, please allow to escort you to the Shark Palace!" Red-Eyed struggled for a mont before speaking to Xu Nian and Xuan Hong.
"Why should we go with you?" Xu Nian asked with a smile.
Red-Eyed beca imdiately enraged.
But he still held it in.
"The two of you, I truly did not intend to offend earlier. If you feel that you cannot let it go, I will apologize to you after we return to the Shark Palace," Red-Eyed said.
Xu Nian just smiled.
He exchanged a glance with Xuan Hong.
"Alright, since it's your Shark Emperor who has invited us, then lead the way. Oh, and your Shark Empress, I've heard she's especially beautiful, I'd like to et her as well," Xu Nian said, bringing up the most awkward subject.
At his side, Red-Eyed's mouth twitched, and he made a gesture of invitation.
He really couldn't understand why the Shark Emperor would treat these two as distinguished guests.
Xu Nian followed the Shark Clan army toward the Shark Palace.
Xu Nian and Xuanwu each rode on the back of a giant shark.
It had to be said that underwater, the Sea Clan had a huge advantage in speed.
Xu Nian and his companions found their speed greatly reduced.
Generally, if pursued by the Sea Clan, human cultivators had nowhere to escape.
Soon, they were brought to the Shark Palace.
The architecture of the Shark Palace was extrely luxurious.
It was several tens of tis more luxurious than the Sea King Palace they had seen earlier.
"Buzz!"
They soon arrived at the palace where the Shark Emperor resided.
The Shark Emperor and the Shark Empress were already seated in the great hall.
The Shark Emperor had a handso and burly appearance, exuding an extraordinary aura.
As for the Shark Empress, she was breathtakingly beautiful.
No wonder the Shark Emperor, knowing full well that his empress had been desecrated, still chose to keep her by his side.
She indeed was very beautiful.
Upon seeing Xu Nian and Xuan Hong enter.
The Shark Emperor burst into hearty laughter, "Haha, you've co, co, please take a seat!"
Xu Nian and Xuan Hong exchanged looks.
They wondered what the Shark Emperor was up to.
However, they didn't stand on ceremony.
They directly sat down on the coral chairs to the side.
"Co, you two must not know my na yet, let introduce myself. I am Sha Bao, the Shark Emperor of the Shark Clan, and this is my empress, Sha Sha," the Shark Emperor laughed heartily.
The Shark Empress beside him also followed with a curtsy.
Xu Nian and Xuan Hong nodded.
"Shark Emperor, let's cut to the chase. What's your purpose for summoning us here?" Xu Nian got straight to the point.
The Shark Emperor smiled in response, "Haha, you're indeed straightforward. Yes, I want to cooperate with you. Aren't you looking for Lie Tian? I would like you to help lure them out. Once the deed is done, I assure you that you won't be unrewarded."
On hearing this, Xu Nian and Xuan Hong burst into laughter.
So that was the purpose of the Shark Emperor's invitation.
