Chapter 209: Giant Shark Gang
Wherever the large bearded man went, the water splashed all around him. If one looked carefully, they could see a giant shark underneath the large bearded man. The shark was formed from water energy and was incredibly quick in the water.
The ten ships were destroyed and over a thousand men had fallen into the water. This was a lot of a casualties.
The large bearded man's dark face looked up at the blue robed scholarly middle aged man. His feet were standing on a little tornado, with his sleeves fluttering in the wind. Floating in the air, he looked like a majestic god, but what was most important was that he could not see through his strength.
Although he didn't know who this person was, he knew that he wasn't an ordinary person!
"Your excellency has rushed into the lake gods' territory and injured many of my disciples!" The large bearded man coldly said, "Do you plan on not giving my Great Shark Gang an explanation?"
"Explanation?" The Divine Wind Marquis gave a calm laugh and the wind became stronger around them. This heavenly might was terrifying, shocking everyone, "The Four States Lake is the land of the Southern Summer Country's king, yet you dare to create a gang here. This marquis is speechless. However, after pillaging year after year and even attacking the shore, did you think no one from the Southern Summer Country cared?"
"You.....You are one of the eight Southern Summer Marquises!"
"Being able to control the wind, you must be Central State's Divine Wind Marquis!"
The large bearded man was shocked. The Divine Wind Marquis was a grand character in the Southern Summer Country!
The large bearded man had no hesitation. The large shark quickly turned around, creating a large wave before it ran away!
"Fifth master!"
The Giant Shark Gang members were all shocked. The fifth master had unparalleled might, but he was running without even fighting?
"Since you're here, then have a cup of tea with this marquis!" The Divine Wind Marquis' figure flashed and he blocked off the large bearded man. His right hand formed a several foot long giant hand and grabbed at the large bearded man.
"I'll go all out with you!"
The large bearded man took out his trident and released the power of his source spirit. Without any time to attack, the Divine Wind Marquis' palm attacked the trident. The violent strength sent the large bearded man back several meters and a mouthful of purple blood came from his mouth.
The Divine Wind Marquis crossed his hands behind his back as if it was very easy, "7th Awakened Soul Layer, haven't you just reached the True Soul Realm?"
"You dare to look down on father!"
The large bearded man gave an angry roar and released the full might of his source spirit which was a giant silver shark. The large bearded man raised his hands and the silver shark dived into the lake, releasing its might into the water.
The water around them began to boil with excitement.
Several hundred sharks broke through the surface of the water, each one being three-four meters long, with bodies made of water energy. They were shooting forth like arrows, flying through the air like they had wings. Each one had a terrifying strength that could swallow an Awakened Soul Cultivator.
"I'll let you see the power the lake gods granted me!"
Countless violent sharks charged right at the Divine Wind Marquis. The Divine Wind Marquis was shocked, he never thought that the large bearded man would be this strong. Just this one move, an ordinary True Soul Realm expert would not be able to block it.
But he wanted to compete with one of the Southern Summer Eight Marquises? Then it was too lacking!
"Wind and Cloud Sword Song!"
Countless wind blades appeared around the Divine Wind Marquis, scattering around him like a storm. Each giant shark was getting hit with two-three attacks each, breaking to pieces and turning into drops of water.
"It's not over yet!" The large bearded man angrily roared, "Lake gods! Bestow upon me your power!"
Countless water drops were frozen in the air and it condensed into a giant shark in the air. Even though the giant shark was made of energy, it was just like a real living being. That thick silver skin was very tangible. It angrily charged right at the Divine Wind Marquis.
The Divine Wind Marquis snapped his finger.
A giant sword qi charged forth.
The giant shark charging forth with shocking momentum was split in half and the large bearded man was sent flying. It was like a ball of water carelessly thrown away, falling several feet away.
"So strong!"
"No wonder he's one of the Southern Summer's Eight Marquises!"
"My Giant Shark Gang will remember this, just wait for me!"
The large bearded man dove into the water, wanting to run away through the lake.
"How could it be that easy!"
The Divine Wind sent a small tornado into the lake, stirring the lake water and creating a giant vortex. Several feet of water flew into the air, holding the figure of the large bearded man.
The Divine Wind Marquis waved his hand and the large bearded man flew over, being grabbed by the neck by the Divine Wind Marquis.
"Let me go!"
The large bearded man was a True Soul expert, but in the hands of the Divine Wind Marquis, he was like a little chicken trying to struggle free.
The Divine Wind Marquis poked several points on the large bearded man's body and used his spirit energy to seal the large bearded man's cultivation. This person's cultivation was not weak, so he must be a head. It would be useful to capture him alive.
"The fifth master has been caught!"
"This is a bad matter, let's call the other masters!"
The pirates all cried out in alarm before sinking into the lake water, disappearing after a while.
The Divine Wind Marquis was not interested in these small fries. He floated in the air and landed on the boat, throwing the large bearded man onto the deck.
Everyone was deeply shocked.
Everyone knew that the Divine Wind Marquis' cultivation was very high and he was very strong, but they never thought it was this terrifying. This fight had expanded their horizons!
The large bearded man revealed a look of panic, "If you dare to hurt a single hair on me, the Giant Shark Gang will not let you off! Are the Southern Summer's Eight Marquises that great? If you alarm my big brother and second brother, you will walk away with a loss!"
The large bearded man was a True Soul expert.
But he had just entered the 7th Awakened Soul Layer.
Therefore it didn't have to be said that he couldn't compare to the Divine Wind Marquis, he couldn't even compare with Chen Bingyu. However from his words, could there be an even stronger person in the Giant Shark Gang?
Nangong Yun couldn't help ask, "Then how much stronger is your big brother and second brother?"
"Nonsense!" The large bearded man was suddenly filled with energy, "The Giant Shark Gang has over a hundred thousand men and I'm only the fifth ranked. My big brother, second brother, third brother, and fourth brother are all above me! You have entered the forbidden area of the lake gods and have injured the aides of the lake gods! Once the lake gods become angry, you can wait to die!"
One hundred thousand people!
There were at least five True Soul Realm experts!
Nangong Yun and the others were all stunned!
The Divine Wind Marquis knit his brows, feeling a bit unhappy!
This fellow was this arrogant after being captured? It seemed like they wouldn't get anything from him, it would be better to kill him with a single palm!
But then again! What if this fellow did not lie? What if the Giant Shark Gang really had a hundred thousand members and even five True Soul Realm experts? This was a giant power.
The Divine Wind Marquis was not afraid of them.
The problem was their mission, so they did not have time to waste. If they really fought with the Giant Shark Gang, then it might not be easy to escape from them.
Peng, peng!
Explosions came from below the warships!
Several soldiers gave startled cries, "This is bad marquis! The ship's bottoms have been destroyed! Our ships are quickly sinking!"
"What?"
These wars ships were the fastest ships in the Southern Summer Country. If they were broken through and the ships sunk, the consequences would be unimaginable! Not to mention how the over a thousand soldiers would escape, Central State would fail to adher to the ruler's orders which was a very serious matter!
"Marquis!"
"There are some strange beings in front of us!"
Everyone looked into the distance and they saw several large turtles slowly swimming over. There were over a hundred people on the turtles' backs, even having giant crossbows prepared.
A thin middle aged man raised his sword and shouted with an angry face, "Let go of fifth brother! Otherwise we'll turn you into fish food!"
The waters began to stir all around them.
"Release fifth master! Release fifth master!" Several thousand of the Giant Shark Gang members appeared, raising their weapons high in the air as they shouted out, "Let them feel the wrath of the lake gods!"
"Over, it's over!" Meng Yingying's face turned white, "There are so many pirates! We've kicked the hornet's nest this time!"
"Ha, ha, ha, ha!" The large bearded man began to laugh, "This is the consequence of offending the lake gods!"
Damn!
A cold killing intent flashed in the Divine Wind Marquis' eyes.
No one had ever dared to threaten him like this. Since it was like this, he would just kill them all!
"Please wait marquis!" Chu Tian walked in front of the Divine Wind Marquis, stopping him from killing the fifth master, "It's more pressing to take care of the pirates. Leave this person to me!"
The Divine Wind Marquis' cultivation was deep, so even if the masters of the Giant Shark Gang came, they might not be able to beat him. However, this was the territory of the Giant Shark Gang, so how could he fight them alone?
The Giant Shark Gang had over a hundred thousand people!
From the troops sent, this seemed highly likely to be true.
These fellows had water attributed attacks and water attributed demon beast, so they could attack the bottom of the ships. For these kinds of sneak attacks, no one had a way of stopping them.
The Divine Wind Marquis was not here to stop the pirates. If a pile of trouble appeared here and the pirates caused trouble for them on their journey, wouldn't that be a large mistake?
The Calm Martial Ruler's rage was not a small thing!
"Alright, I'll leave it to you!" The Divine Wind Marquis knew that Chu Tian had many tricks and it was more urgent to fight off the pirates, so he ignored the fifth master, "Chen Bingyu, give me a hand!"
Chen Bingyu was friends with the Divine Wind Marquis, so she did not reject him. She jumped onto the lake without saying anything.
In an instant!
A powerful cold might was released.
The lake's water began to freeze and the pirates attacking the ships bottom were all trapped in the ice. The Divine Wind Marquis also made his move, creating a large storm of wind blades in the air.
With these two experts working together, the pirates were easily taken care of.
Chu Tian walked in front of the large bearded man, "Now, let's have a chat."
"Brat, who do you think you are? Do you have the qualifications to talk to father?" The large bearded man angrily stared at Chu Tian, "If you have the skills, then kill father! My hundred thousand brothers will take revenge for me!"
"You think you can be arrogant as a captive!" Nangong Yun kicked out, "This fellow is asking to be hit, so let me beat him up. I haven't hit a True Soul Realm expert before!"
"Nangong, don't cause any trouble!" Chu Tian waved his hand at Nangong Yun, "Have you prepared the thing I ask you for?"
Nangong Yun placed a bucket of lake water in front of Chu Tian, "Weird, why did you ask me for some water?"
Chu Tian lifted up the fifth master and placed his head into the water!
"What are you doing?"
"Chu Tian said to the others, "Look for yourself!"
Meng Yingying was the first to look over and she couldn't help being surprised, "Aiya, this is incredible. There are gills growing behind his ears!"
Everyone who was in disbelief looked over and were all stunned by this strange scene. Behind the large bearded man's ears, there were gills that were breathing for him.
"How could there be gills on a human's body?"
"Monster! This fellow is not a human!"
The soldiers felt fear from the bottom of their hearts.
"Lake god, there really are lake gods!" The old guide the Divine Wind Marquis invited trembled with fear as he muttered, "These people are the lake gods' servants and that's why they have this kind of ability. We are in big trouble! The lake gods will definitely be angered!"
