Chapter 713 - Final Battle - Part 3

Tang Shaoyang chased after Robert Kingsley, entrusting the city to Zara and Alton. He was confident that they would not lose, not after the main force had arrived. They had traveled hundreds of kilometers in five minutes.

Tang Shaoyang could attribute shift into Agility and catch up, but he did not do so for a reason. He wanted to follow Robert Kingsley to his destination and possibly the Lionax Kingdom's main force so that he could end everything at once. As he was in the chase, Robert Kingsley suddenly stopped.

Tang Shaoyang was surprised that the old man who ran for his life suddenly stopped. He halted his chase and scanned the surroundings. They were in the middle of the barren plain. 'Is it possible for a trap?' He used Spirit Eyes and expanded his vision to all directions, making sure he did not miss anything. 'There's no trap nor an ambush.'

"Have you decided to fight me instead of running like a coward?" Tang Shaoyang taunted the old man as he tried to figure out what the opposite party planned.

The Right-Wing Guardian turned around with a big smile. "I don't know if you are foolish or brave, but you made a great mistake by leaving Alton and that angel behind. You should stay with them so you don't die."

With that simple answer, Tang Shaoyang figured out why Robert Kingsley stopped. The old man realized that only he went out to chase, so the old man decided to fight him instead of running away. The Right-Wing Guardian was confident to fight him in one vs one.

Tang Shaoyang grinned while shaking his head. "Confidence is good, but blind confidence is just foolish. Also, if you want to fight me alone, there's no need for you to run away. I am going to face you and that bull alone. My angel and Alton are there just to watch me fight you two. You just throw away your chance to defeat by working together with that bull, unfortunately."

"Bahahahaha…" Robert Kingsley let out a burst of laughter when he heard that from Tang Shaoyang's mouth. "That works on you too. Aren't you being too confident to face me alone? Young man this day, having a little bit of power and thinking he can take over the world."

"I am not sure about the world, but it's enough to kill you." Tang Shaoyang grinned and licked his lips. "It seems you have gone senile. Do you think I conquer Gigante Forest with my mouth?" After saying that, he canceled the integration with Zowen. 'It's been a long time since our last integration, right, Karan?'

—Let's do it again and crush this old man. The Orc does not care if you are a kid, an elder, or a woman. As long as he or she is on the battlefield, they are our enemy. Gegegege…

'You have become even creepier, My Friend.' Tang Shaoyang let out a chuckle and activated [Epic Integration] with Karan. Of course, since he was still in [Grand Dragon Transformation], there was no change in his physique.

Robert Kingsley's smile disappeared when he heard the last part from Tang Shaoyang. He opened his mouth and tried to say something, but he could not deny that claim. Indeed, this man conquered the unconquered forest with hundreds of tribes residing in the forest when the three kingdoms failed to do so.

"You can't escape from me now, old man!" Tang Shaoyang raised his right foot and slammed to the ground. It was Karan's skill, [Earth Split]. The ground shook and split up into two, creating a deep fissure. Of course, Robert Kingsley easily avoided the skill by jumping into the air, but that was what Tang Shaoyang aimed for.

Tang Shaoyang activated the second skill, [Wild Axes]. Dark axes formed in his hand, and he threw them toward Robert. He did not expect the axes to hit Robert as he was merely testing the water. He wanted to know how strong his opponent was. It was a good trait he learned from Zaneos, who kept emphasizing not to underestimate the enemy.

Robert Kingsley pulled out a sword from his inventory and reflected the flying axes.

Clank! Clank!

The old man was getting pushed back from blocking the Wild Axes. By the time he landed on the ground, he tried to find Tang Shaoyang. However, the figure disappeared from his sight. He expanded his senses and sensed a presence behind him. 'F*ck, how could he be this fast?'

Robert Kingsley turned around and slashed his sword horizontally. The flame blade formed in the air and shot forward. Since it was a flame, Tang Shaoyang waved his hand toward the flame blade and the flame blade dispersed.

"It seems I am your worst enemy. Your fire will not work on me." After saying that, his figure disappeared. He activated [Blink] and teleported to Robert Kingsley's back. He swung the Dragon Destroyer, but Robert Kingsley reacted in time. The old man turned around and put his sword horizontally, blocking the battle-ax.

The old man was pushed back by force behind the attack as his face crunched in surprise. They were in the same Legend Rank, but why was Tang Shaoyang stronger than him?

'Did he focus on Strength Attribute? If that's the case, I can't win in a close combat battle, but my Fire Magic also does not work on him. He must have high Magic Power as well, but how? Where did this monster come from?' Robert Kingsley's mind was full of wonders as he tried to figure many things at the same time.

'He did say that he is The Emperor of The Tang Empire. Was he an Emperor who lost in a war on the main continent, so he came to the Ortis Continent to make a comeback?'

"You are really underestimating me. I can't believe that you have your mind somewhere else." Tang Shaoyang was right in front of the dazed old man. He swung the Dragon Destroyer to the old man's chest. This was not just a normal attack as he activated [Grievous Strike].

Once again, Robert crossed his sword in a defensive position and blocked the incoming attack. He received the strike, but his hand was trembling from the impact, and he was sent flying one more time as this attack was much stronger than before. His body bounced on the ground and crushed into the big boulder.

Robert Kingsley was about to get up, but he saw a shadow behind the dust. "Damn!" He cursed out and extended his hand upward, creating a flame barrier around him. "Not only is he monstrously strong, but he is so fast!"

[Thousand Blast]

The Dragon Destroyer unleashed a thousand blasts, disintegrating the flame barrier, creating a massive crater with a shadow in the center of it. Tang Shaoyang was standing in the air, looking down into the pit. Robert's humped forward while holding on to the sword he pierced to the ground to stand up. The old man looked up to the sky while breathing raggedly.

"What is this? I haven't used my Demon Eye yet." Tang Shaoyang was rubbing the eye patch that covered his right eye. He beat Alton with this eye and integration with Zaneos, a Grade SS Spirit. However, he beat Robert Kingsley without using his Demon Eye, and Karan was just Grade S+ Spirit. He hoped for a close fight like when he fought Alton, but he was disappointed with the result.

—I think that's because of your evolving race, Master. You fight Alton while you were High-Human, and fight The Right-Wing Guardian when you become Tang.

That was Zaneos' response, and it made sense. However, Tang Shaoyang felt this was still too easy, especially since this guy was Legend Rank.

Robert Kingsley's eyes twitched when he heard that tone from Tang Shaoyang. The old man could tell that Tang Shaoyang was looking down at him. He pulled out the sword from the ground and held it with his two hands.

Swoosh!

Fire blazed around the sword, and the fire was getting more intense as time passed. Robert Kingsley took a deep breath and looked up, but then Tang Shaoyang used [Blink] and teleported right in front of the old man.

"What? Are you expecting me to wait for you to execute your ultimate skill? I am sorry, but I don't want to go through that trouble. Let's end everything now." Tang Shaoyang's right hand grabbed Robert Kingsley's neck while grinning ear to ear. "Let's see how much I will get from absorbing a Legend Rank."

[Slayer Absorption]

"ARGGHHHHHH!" The fire around the sword died down as Robert Kingsley struggled wildly. The old man hit Tang Shaoyang's arm and kicked the air as he struggled madly. He could not break free from the grasp no matter what he did. He felt that all his organs were melting, and his brain was about to explode. This was the worst, and he had never felt like this before.

What made it worse, he could not use his Magic Power. Slowly, the lion mane around his neck disappeared, and Robert Kingsley returned to his human figure. Robert Kingsley stopped struggling and looked at Tang Shaoyang with a blank look by this time.

"Ah, I forgot one more surprise for you, old man. While you are still conscious, let me give you the last present for becoming my nutrient." Tang Shaoyang remembered something and summoned Rosalie. "Here you are. Don't you think her face is familiar to you, old man?"

Robert Kingsley's blank eyes widened in terror and fear when he saw the red-haired woman… There was no way he forgot this woman, the master he betrayed, and also the woman he loved.
