Chapter 119

As the screams of Inoue Gua vanished into the sea of fire, the Daoriguo soldiers on the deck finally collapsed in total despair. Staring at the crimson flames dancing around Chu Xuan, they saw not a human figure reflected in their pupils, but a Shura from the depths of hell. Some knelt, trembling violently, and kowtowed to Chu Xuan with such madness that their foreheads split open against the deck, splashing blood everywhere. Others emitted inhuman wails and turned to flee in the opposite direction, only to trip and fall over their own weakened legs. Still others threw themselves directly into the sea, hoping the water would wash away their fear, forgetting that these waters had long since become a killing field stained with blood. Chu Xuan held the Longyu Sword, from which molten metal still dripped, and watched the fleeing soldiers with a cold, mocking curve to his lips. With a flick of his hand, several streaks of sword energy pierced the air, pinning hundreds of soldiers trying to launch the lifeboats to the bulkhead.
