Beautiful CEO's Top Expert-Chapter 1885 - 1886: The Mishap in the Escape
The King's arm was severed by the Emperor, and scarlet blood immediately gushed out. The intense pain flooded over him like a tide, causing the King's body to involuntarily shiver, and his originally pale complexion now appeared devoid of any blood, making him seem eerily like a corpse!
"King, do you still think you can show off your prowess in front of me?"
The Emperor didn't strike again but stared fixedly at the King, glaring at him like he was looking at a dead man, without a flicker of emotion!
The King said nothing, his face twisted in fury at the Emperor, his gaze as malicious as a fierce ghost, wishing he could tear the Emperor to pieces with his eyes!
"Hand over the Taiji Seal, and I'll give you a whole corpse!" The Emperor repeated the same words as before, still sounding extremely arrogant and domineering!
The King took a deep breath: "Emperor, I'm dead either way. If you want the Taiji Seal, go find it in the ocean!"
With that, the King directly pulled out the Taiji Seal and tossed it into the sea.
He would rather break than bend!
Seeing this, the Emperor's expression suddenly changed. The Taiji Seal is a treasure of Huaxia. If the King throws it into this boundless ocean, searching for it would be like finding a needle in a haystack!
The next moment, the Emperor leaped up, heading directly toward where the Taiji Seal had fallen!
"Splash!"
The sound of something hitting water rang out, and then the Emperor and the Taiji Seal plunged into the sea together!
Seeing this, a sharp gleam shot from the King's eyes, and he was about to use his Levitation to leave!
But before King could escape using Levitation, Xiao Jiangnan and Ye Xunhuan rushed at him like two savage predators.
King's face changed dramatically!
"Swish!"
"Swish!"
Two sword lights descended simultaneously from the east and west, slashing toward King.
These sword lights tore the air apart like dragons, rapidly assailing King, intending to shred him to pieces!
Seeing these sword lights rushing toward him, King's face changed drastically, and inwardly he started furiously cursing.
But now was obviously not the time for King to rage — he kicked with his right foot and swiftly retreated like a breeze!
"Swish!"
In an instant, King retreated to the edge of the ship.
And at that moment, the sword lights wielded by Ye Xunhuan and Xiao Jiangnan collided fiercely!
"Boom..."
The sword lights clashed violently, producing a deafening rumble, and the terrifying aftermath spread all around like a hurricane. Sword Qi poured onto the deck, causing enormous cracks to appear!
Moreover, as the Sword Qi swept through, the railing at the edge was completely destroyed, turning to wood chips and scattering into the air, slowly falling into the sea!
This clearly shows how terrifying each strike from Ye Xunhuan and Xiao Jiangnan was. If King were hit, he would likely be pulverized!
With the aftermath dissipating, Ye Xunhuan and Xiao Jiangnan exchanged glances, an aura of ice and fire surged into the sky, but they quickly withdrew their gazes and fixed them on King!
However, as they focused on King, turmoil surged in Xiao Jiangnan's heart!
Previously in the capital, Ye Xunhuan was not his match. If not for the appearance of a mysterious person, Ye Xunhuan wouldn't have escaped disaster. But in such a short time, Ye Xunhuan was on par with him.
What is more important, Ye Xunhuan is injured now. But what if he weren't injured?
Xiao Jiangnan didn't dare to think further; he only knew that Ye Xunhuan's growth was frighteningly fast. If he continued like this, he could surpass him, even reach the level of the Emperor!
Such a person, if he cannot be used, is best dead!
But now was clearly not the time to deal with Ye Xunhuan.
King saw Ye Xunhuan and Xiao Jiangnan fixating their gazes on him, and his heart trembled!
Whether it was Ye Xunhuan or Xiao Jiangnan, their gazes were full of aggression, like lions spotting an antelope in the animal kingdom.
"Marshal, are you going to team up with him to kill me?" King said with a twisted expression to Ye Xunhuan.
"King, from the moment you captured them, you should have known never to give me any chance, or I will make you die!" Ye Xunhuan said coldly.
"Marshal, the Emperor never intended to keep them alive, and you should know you are just a pawn in his eyes!" King said heavily, "I never treated you as a pawn!"
"Are you, the underground world overlord, willing to be used as a pawn?"
Ye Xunhuan snorted coldly, "King, no matter how eloquent you are, today I will cut you down!"
"As for my score with the Emperor, I'll settle it with him!"
"Marshal, you can't handle them alone. How about we cease fire and work together to deal with them, and later settle our accounts?"
"You're dreaming!"
Ye Xunhuan would never cooperate with King, because everything was instigated by King, and now it's unclear whether the Emperor will emerge from the water. He saw no need to join forces with King!
"Chain Cross Slash!"
As the word "slash" fell, Ye Xunhuan swiftly swung his sword!
Within the span of a breath, Ye Xunhuan slashed his sword twice.
The intersecting sword lights swept toward King like a terrifying tornado.
The intersecting sword lights tore up the deck in their path.
Seeing this, King yelled, "You lunatic!"
With that, King used his Levitation and floated up over the sea.
He was waiting for Ye Xunhuan to strike so he could dodge and also take the opportunity to escape from the ship's edge!
"Swish!"
King jumped into the sea, but with Levitation, he didn't fall into the water; instead, he floated in the air and burst into laughter.
At that moment, Ye Xunhuan's sword lights hit the water, causing splashes as if bombs had been thrown into the calm sea!
"Marshal, bet you didn't expect that I know Levitation!" King said gleefully, "Thanks for giving me the chance to live!"
"We'll meet in Europe!"
With that, King was about to escape, but suddenly, a splash emerged from the calm sea!
"Swish!"
The next moment, a soaking wet figure sprang from the water without warning and kicked at King!
