Changsun Ming said, "His Holiness has passed away, and the Profound Celestial Sect is strong. Brother Chen, you have no choice but to go to Nanxia."
After a brief pause, Changsun Ming continued, "Don’t worry, our Changsun Family has so business in Nanxia. By the ti you cross the river to Nanxia, soone will be there to help you."
Chen Tang nodded and said, "This is Tan Wujiu, forrly the Marshal of the Cyan Dragon Bureau. He has just defected from it to save and has killed many from the Profound Celestial Sect."
"Brother Tan, I admire you."
Upon hearing this, Changsun Ming respectfully saluted with cupped hands.
"I don’t deserve it."
Tan Wujiu forced a bitter smile.
Chen Tang said, "Changsun, please see him to the riverbank and across the river."
As he spoke, Chen Tang helped Tan Wujiu off the Thunder Leopard and onto Changsun Ming’s horse.
"Where are you going?"
Changsun Ming furrowed his brow and asked.
"I have sothing to do."
Chen Tang smiled and said, "You go ahead, I’ll catch up soon."
Changsun Ming felt uneasy and imdiately said, "What is it? I’ll go with you."
"No need."
Chen Tang waved his hand and said, "Brother Tan is seriously injured and needs care. You help escort him to the riverbank."
Changsun Ming pondered for a mont and said, "Then co quickly, we’ll be waiting for you at the riverbank."
"Alright!"
Chen Tang nodded.
"Brother Chen, you..."
Tan Wujiu seed to sense sothing, a trace of worry in his eyes.
He had witnessed Chen Tang’s skills and fierce spirit.
Back then, for Cai Yin, he angrily killed Song Wood, which was evident.
Though Tan Wujiu didn’t know what Chen Tang planned to do, it was bound to be extrely dangerous!
But just as he opened his mouth, Chen Tang interrupted, smiling, "Brother Tan, don’t worry. We’ll et again in the Jianghu of Nanxia."
"Alright, I’ll be waiting for you in Nanxia."
Tan Wujiu could only nod.
The three of them bid farewell.
Changsun Ming carried Tan Wujiu southward, heading straight for Xiajiang.
Once Chen Tang saw them off, he took a deep breath, first running north for a while to bypass the pursuers possibly from Longpan City, then hurriedly heading east toward the Eight Hundred Li Marsh in Qingzhou!
Upon hearing of Yuan Qingshan’s death, he suddenly understood many things.
Back in the Imperial Palace, when Yuan Qingshan gave him the ’Eternal,’ he didn’t want to accept it.
Because this blade was left to him by Chen Da’an, but Chen Da’an was already dead.
Cai Yin reforged this blade and gave it to him, and after that, Cai Yin also died.
So, Chen Tang was sowhat resistant to this.
But Yuan Qingshan said, "Therefore, you must take this blade."
At the ti, Chen Tang felt that Yuan Qingshan’s words seed only half-spoken.
But before he could figure it out, Yuan Qingshan changed the subject.
Now thinking back, Chen Tang finally understood the aning behind Yuan Qingshan’s gift of the blade.
That day, Yuan Qingshan already knew his fate.
He also knew the origin of Chen Tang’s blade.
Both Chen Da’an and Cai Yin, who gave the blade to Chen Tang, indeed died.
But Chen Tang had avenged them with this blade!
So, Yuan Qingshan would say, you must take this blade.
Yuan Qingshan hoped that one day in the future, Chen Tang would wield the ’Eternal’ to avenge him!
Chen Tang wasn’t ready yet.
Leaving like this and going to Nanxia was indeed the most prudent and rational approach.
But he really couldn’t swallow this anger.
The Profound Celestial Sect forced Yuan Qingshan to death!
He would make the Profound Celestial Sect pay the price now!
Ever since he ca to this world, Chen Tang always acted rationally and relatively calmly.
Even back then, when he killed Song Wood in front of everyone in Wu’an County, it wasn’t a mont of impulse.
He always left a way out for himself.
At the ti, the chubby old man was present, so his life wasn’t in danger.
The worst case was to flee back to the Snow Mountain and accompany Emperor Wu.
But what he was planning today, once done, there was no turning back!
It could very well be a situation of nine deaths and one life!
Chen Tang slightly lowered his head.
The thumb gripping the scabbard gently flicked.
Clang!
A part of the ’Eternal’ unsheathed, revealing at the handle end, two lines of small characters glowing with a blood-red sheen.
He was going to slay the Flood Dragon!
With the blood of the Flood Dragon, to honor Yuan Qingshan!
The Thunder Leopard carried him swiftly, running for almost half a day.
As dusk approached, he finally reached the Qingzhou Marsh again.
With his cultivation realm, he couldn’t possibly kill the Silver Flood Dragon.
He could only kill the Juvenile Flood Dragon!
Since these two Flood Dragons had been an accomplice of evil, causing countless families to break and people to be displaced, he would also let these two evil Flood Dragons taste the pain of losing family!
As Chen Tang journeyed, the blood in him seed to ignite, growing hotter!
In his past life, he had heard of the story of Zhou Chu ridding the three scourges, one of which was the Flood Dragon!
Today, he also wanted to emulate the ancient sages and slaughter that Juvenile Flood Dragon!
Chen Tang dismounted from the Thunder Leopard and once more stealthily entered the marsh.
Having been there once before, he was now familiar, and soon reached the depths of the lair.
The True Dragon was held back by Master Le Kong.
As for the Silver Flood Dragon, it often went out to cause floods.
This was Chen Tang’s opportunity!
Chen Tang hid in a corner of the lair, peeking outside.
Inside the lair, there was only the Juvenile Flood Dragon, coiled and seemingly napping.
This Juvenile Flood Dragon’s belly was particularly bloated, appearing to have just eaten, much bulkier than the rest of its body!
Chen Tang stealthily, on tiptoe, made his way along the edge of the lair, slowly reaching above the Juvenile Flood Dragon.
Before entering the lair, the ’Eternal’ had already been unsheathed.
Chen Tang gazed at the Juvenile Flood Dragon below, his eyes like a torch, then suddenly leaped down from above, gripping the ’Eternal’ in both hands, and struck fiercely at the Juvenile Flood Dragon’s neck!
Just as he leaped down, the Juvenile Flood Dragon seed to sense sothing, suddenly waking from its slumber.
The next mont, a flash of the blade.
A seemingly small figure descended from above, slashing toward its neck.
Chilling!
The Juvenile Flood Dragon detected a hint of danger, quickly turning its head to dodge, and at the sa ti, opened its mouth to bite!
Chen Tang instantly entered the Divine Illumination State.
His reflexes accelerated!
Thud!
The ’Eternal’ struck, but didn’t hit the Juvenile Flood Dragon’s neck instead slashed at its forehead, wedging into the bone gap, unable to slash further!
"Hiss!"
The Juvenile Flood Dragon let out a miserable cry, its tongue flicking in and out, frantically shaking its head and tail.
Just as Chen Tang withdrew the ’Eternal,’ a massive force flung him away, smashing him into the wall.
Whoosh!
Blood stread from the Juvenile Flood Dragon’s forehead.
Though this slash tore flesh, the Juvenile Flood Dragon’s skull blocked it, ultimately causing no lethal harm.
Infuriated, the Juvenile Flood Dragon roared, opened its bloody mouth, revealing fearso fangs glistening coldly, and charged at Chen Tang!
Under the Divine Illumination State, Chen Tang dodged nimbly, circling to the Juvenile Flood Dragon’s rear, slashing down again!
Bang!
As the ’Eternal’ struck the Juvenile Flood Dragon, its massive tail lashed at Chen Tang, bursting out with a muffled sound.
"Pfft!"
Chen Tang shook violently, spitting out fresh blood.
The force was too great; even with his Four Extres Realm body’s muscles and bones couldn’t withstand it, pulverizing him so that his organs were shaken!
And this was only the strength of a Juvenile Flood Dragon!
