The Killing Blow

Behind Jiang Wang stood a ship full of ordinary people willing to testify for him; before him stood three transcendent cultivators from the Angry Whale Gang.

Beneath his feet was a small dragonbone boat, and Youxia Island lay not far away.

This was the Angry Whale Gang's headquarters.

He should have been terrified, but he remained calm.

He ought to have backed down, but he stood firm.

Jiang Wang! At that moment, Li Daorong suddenly remembered what he had heard about that name. He remembered who Jiang Wang was.

He was the number-one cultivator in the Soaring Dragon Realm under heaven, the one who had defeated God of War Guan's favored disciple, Wang Yiwu, in a battle between cultivators of the same realm. He had even crossed a minor realm and defeated the Lei Clan's Prodigy, Lei Zhangan.

And Li Daorong had actually overlooked that!

Perhaps the Sea Beast's injuries had left him consumed with worry. Perhaps being near Youxia Island had made him far too confident.
