Return From The Immortal World
Chapter 944: Crisis on the Island of the Nine Dragons
The first wisp of sunlight rose from the Eastern horizon as Tang Xiu woke up from his sleep. He looked at Zhang Xinya who was still soundly asleep with a reddish complexion before he grabbed to grab her phone at the bedside table and saw dozens of missed calls on it.
“Hah? Long Zhengyu's? ”
His brows furrowed, Tang Xiu wore clean clothes with a puzzled expression. He didn't even take the time to take a shower and just headed to the living room to call back.
His call only rang twice before being picked up, followed by Long Zhengyu's slow voice, “We got an accident here on Nine Dragons Island, Tang Xiu.”
The news made Tang Xiu's expression change and he asked in a deep voice, “What happened?”
“Two men in black robes landed on the island last night. They said that they had buried something here and had to dig, ” Long Zhengyu said. “They claim that it was buried in the middle of the island where we built the house. We have to destroy them if they want to dig them up. ”
“Do you know who they are?” Ask Tang Xiu.
“I do not know their identity .. but they. The island had a number of experts on guard, but the two black-robed men could injure dozens of them. If not for the help of the six extremely powerful mysterious people, those two black-skinned grandfathers would have succeeded. ”
“There are six others?” Ask Tang Xiu again, “You know those six people?”
“I dare say that I have never seen them.” Long Zhengyu shook his head and said, “Six this guy looks very young, seems to be around seventeen years old, yet their combat troops cannot mock. Their magic spells were still shocking even though they did not summon the wind or call for rain. ”
‘They are cultivators?’ Tang Xiu's expression changed and he asked in a heavy voice, “How is the situation now?”
“The two black-robed men were now fighting against these six teenagers and they seemed to be at a dead end. No one wins, ” Long Zhengyu said in a sour voice.
“I will be there tonight at the latest,” Tang Xiu said in a deep voice, “Zhengyu, remember to pay attention to safety first and do not enter into conflict with them if possible. Destroying buildings is not an option — prevents them from doing so. And do whatever it takes to buy time until I arrive. ”
“Understanding!” Long Zhengyu replied.
Tang Xiu took a deep breath. After hanging up the phone, he dialed Mo Awu's number and learned that he had arrived in Thailand along with Jin Shi, Xue Sha, and Hei Xiong. They were expected to come in a few hours, so Tang Xiu immediately ordered Mo Awu to leave for Saipan immediately and they would meet there.
It had long been Tang Xiu's plan to make the Island of the Nine Dragons an important cultivation place in the future. He had actually burned so much money to buy it and even invested 20 billion yuan for a construction project there. Moreover, he would still have to invest a lot of jade there to set up such a large array. With such a problem occurring there, it was a must for him to hurry up and handle it personally.
He could not guess who the two black-robed old men were, but he had a faint premonition that the other six young men must be cultivators. He had assigned a number of experts to guard the island, except for Wolf Head's team, including some Eternal Party Hall experts like Mo Awu.
“These people should be very tough.”
Tang Xiu woke Zhang Xinya up and felt a little pity for her after seeing her sleepy face. Despite this, he still talked to her, “Xinya, sorry, but I can't take you back to the mainland. You have to rush a shower and leave Bangkok with me. I'll take you somewhere else. ”
With his spirit rising, Zhang Xinya's face was a symbol of joy as she asked, “You won't drive me back to China? Thats cool. But where are we going? ”
“We will head to Saipan and then go to Nine Dragons Island,” Tang Xiu replied.
“Nine Dragon Island?” Zhang Xinya was confused and asked again, “Where is this island located?”
“It was an island I bought in the Pacific Ocean. I set it up as our future base, ” Tang Xiu replied. “Something just happened there, so I had to hurry up and deal with it.”
Although Zhang Xinya did not understand why Tang Xiu should go to the island he bought in the Pacific Ocean, or what he meant as ‘base’ later on, he immediately understood and immediately got up to wash and rinse his mouth. He then cleared everything up.
Ten minutes later, they came out of the room. Tang Xiu then looked at Spectre, Gu Tao, and Zhang Jue outside. There was also Singluen with them and the latter quickly greeted him, “You're up, Mr. Tang!”
“Something important came up, so I have to leave Thailand soon,” Tang Xiu said. “Singluen, I have to postpone our plans for now, but I will return here to find you after I resolve the issue in that place.”
The words that made Singluen let out a forced and wry smile, “Can't you delay the matter first, Mr Tang? My brother is back. I had already sent my people to watch over him, but he mysteriously disappeared. I suspect he has sniffed that we will carry out a scheme against him. If we don't rush to deal with him now, I'm worried .. ”
Singlue was silent because she knew that Tang Xiu was right. Their previous agreement and plan also said that they would prepare preparations to secretly kill his elder brother before taking over the position of Patriarch from his father, the president said, which nominally makes him the new Head of his Dark Shaman Family. If he chose to kill directly, many other problems would arise.
“I understand! Then I will wait for you, ”Singluen agreed with a wry smile.
Tang Xiu patted her on the shoulder and smilingly said, “You have been holding her back for so many years, so waiting for a few more days is nothing, right? Anyway, no need to worry about it. As long as I solve the problem there, what I will do first is come back here. ”

Bangkok Airport.
Tang Xiu's group of five had just arrived and had yet to board the plane as two middle-aged men in black suits and sunglasses rushed over. The person who had a scar on his mouth asked, “Are you Mr Tang Xiu?”
“And who are you?” Tang Xiu asked with a frown.
“You will soon know who we are, Mr. Tang,” said the man. “We were ordered by our Young Master to ask Mr. Tang to wait for about ten minutes. He'll rush here to see you. ”
It was still half an hour before their flight, so Tang Xiu immediately said, “I can wait for him, but I won't entertain you for more than 10 minutes.”
In less than 10 minutes, a young man with a burly body, despite being only 170 cm tall, came along with a group of large men in black suits. When she came in front of Tang Xiu, she glanced quickly at Spectre, Gu Tao, and Zhang Jue around Tang Xiu before she gently nodded and said, “Are you, Mr Tang”?
Tang Xiu had seen this man and knew his identity.
This man is Singkuo! The eldest prince of the Dark Shaman clan and elder brother Singluen. The moment he saw it, Tang Xiu immediately concluded that his plan with Singluen might have been revealed, and thus, there was a possibility of a traitor around Singluen.
“I,” said Tang Xiu indifferently.
“There is something between us that I think is a bit of a misunderstanding, Mr. Tang,” Singkuo smiled and said, “However, because you have some things to tend to and will leave Bangkok, Bangkok, it's a bit uncomfortable for me to talk about that. But still, I'd like to give you these two gifts that I hope will be to your liking. ”
“Receive a gift without reward? I don't think there is a need for you to give me anything, “ Tang Xiu said with a frown.
Singkuo received two gift boxes from his two men and handed them to Tang Xiu, “Don't you want to see what I want to give you, Master Tang? I'm sure you'll love this gift. ”
After a moment of silence, Tang Xiu gestured for Specter to receive a box. Tang Xiu personally opened the first gift box, and to his surprise, inside he found a shimmering red crystal in the form of a diamond that emitted faint energy fluctuations.
“A Flame Crystal?” Tang Xiu looked at Singkuo strangely and asked, “This is quite a gift. I'm not going to expect that you'll have it in your collection. ”
“Ah, it turns out that you also know about this precious mineral, Mr. Tang,” Singkuo said with a smile. “However, I think you will agree that you will like the other gift because it is much better than this one.”
Tang Xiu continued to open the second gift box alone and his expression slightly changed after he saw the thing clearly. He flashed a deep yet meaningful look at Singkuo and smilingly said, “You know, I can still get these two items right away even if you don't give them to me today.”
“If my memory is useful, the Chinese have an old saying that it is better to throw away hostility than to keep it alive,” Singkuo said with a faint smile. “You and I have no grudges or animosity. You just want to get this jade carving; hence, I hope that you can stop your cooperation with my little brother. ”
Picking up a lifelike jade pig from the gift box, Tang Xiu then asked, “Well, Singluen should have a traitor around her, right?”
“To be honest, my father wanted me to be the heir of the clan since I was a child. I don't think I ever let him down. I may not be creme de la creme, but I think I am competent enough to be the heir to my Dark Shaman clan. After all, I had not expected my brother to know that most of the strength of my clan was under my control and my father handed it to me without a sound. ”
“Because you have that much power under your control, then why would you bother sending these zodiac jade carvings in person?” Ask Tang Xiu. “In addition, I only brought a few of these people with me now, so don't tell me you want to play with me in any other way, eh?”
“No. It is not my desire to be your enemy. “Singkuo shook his head and said,” The way of the Dark Shaman clan is to never disturb anyone else unless an outsider provokes us first. Even if outsiders want to provoke us, we will try to settle disputes and try to befriend them. ”
Tang Xiu observed Singkuo in front of him who was not too humble and not a slave. He suddenly smiled and said, “I have to admit that you are indeed stronger than your little brother. It's just..”
