"A-Alright. I will wait here."
Hearing her answer, Leo nodded and stood up. His appearance immediately changed to something similar to Tang Clan warrior using optical illusion, a part of his bodysuit’s capability.
With that, he sneaked into the house with ease without anyone noticing.
He just walked without much care after all. There was a commotion between Tang Jiuyang and his guard about their failed plan which allowed him to sneak in undetected. It seemed that Tang Jiyuan ordered his bodyguard to kidnap Anya and Peng Li-Yue for revenge.
’Trash.’ Leo thought in disdain.
’I can’t let my emotions get to me.’ He reminded himself while passing through the group of men and finding the room Tang Jiuyang hid in. The room wasn’t guarded after some warriors left, so he entered with ease.
"Who’s there?!" Tang Jiuyang immediately asked upon seeing Leo coming into his room. "A bodyguard? Why are you here? I didn’t call for you!"
"Well, I am here to do something you will hate so much, oh Young Master."
While saying that, he deactivated his optical illusion. His real appearance, unmasked, was revealed before the third Young Master of the Tang Clan.
"Unfortunately, our job is to prevent you from bothering our client."
"Y-You!"
As he said that, a dagger flew out of his sleeve and landed straight on Tang Jiuyang’s throat. It cut through his skin and caused blood to spurt out, painting the air red. He screamed loudly as he struggled to take out the dagger while holding his throat with both of his hands.
Xiao Ah Tian listened to what Shui said while closing his eyes. In the end, he opened them again and pointed his sword at him. "Then, are you ready to show me your greatest move? Let’s end it in one strike."
"Gladly."
Two dragons collided and dispersed into particles of light in the air. One hologram created by Nanites and one made from Qi. Afterward, Xiao Ah Tian made the first move and charged at Shui.
His strike was so strong that it split the air and sent out shockwaves, sending debris around them flying in every direction. Shui also moved as he swung his sword, aiming it at his opponent.
With the power of Nanites, he utilized the bodysuit to full potential. His speed and strength were doubled due to the use of Nanites while his perception was increased as well.
Their swords met in the middle, sending strong gusts of wind and causing several explosions around them. All chairs near the arena were destroyed within seconds and all things inside were blown away with strong force, leaving no trace of its existence.
With just two attacks, a big crater was created beneath their feet while cracks formed on the surface of their swords.
Boom!
Their swords clashed and shattered like glass upon meeting each other, but Xiao Ah Tian didn’t stop. His hand was immediately covered in white Qi resembling a sword. He threw the sword at Shui who dodged it easily at a speed faster than sound and gave him an opening for him to deliver a fatal blow.
A slash that could cut a mountain split the air as it went straight for Shui’s throat.
Still... Shui looked at it calmly as he pulled his sword from his sheath. It hummed like a machine as it materialized with pale light while the blade resembled a crescent moon with two fangs on its spine.
"Snake Fang!"
