Pretending To Be A Boss

"Your observational skills are indeed strong."

Tang Xian observed the Red Emperor's expressions, which showed slight changes when the Destroyer was mentioned.

He was certain he hadn't come to the wrong place. However, this time it was the Guardian, not the Obsession Entity, which left Tang Xian somewhat uncertain.

The Red Emperor no longer intended to hide his strength, his red fur fluttering like flames, and deeper red veins surfacing on his muscles.

The terrifying wound left by Junlin was also healing at a visible speed.

Tang Xian did not hesitate, his consciousness returned once again before that door.

This time when Tang Xian pushed the door open, he faintly felt that the door had become lighter.

The moment the second door within the depths of his mind was pushed open.

Tang Xian, wielding a trident, used the supreme power of the Sea God to create an area devoid of water in the entire sea region.

The Red Emperor watched this scene in horror; how terrifying is the water pressure in the deep-sea zone twenty thousand leagues under?

Yet when Tang Xian isolated the seawater, it seemed as though he expended no effort at all.

In the eyes of the Red Emperor, this was already a divine power.

Tang Xian had his own intentions for doing this.

Red Lotus Lion Beast.

In Tang Wen's notes, it was a deep-sea monster with amphibious traits, living in the deep sea.

It was not huge in size, but it possessed both strength and speed, able to cause significant damage even to gigantic creatures, and its speed in the sea was extremely fast.

In fact, in this battle, Junlin was at a disadvantage. If the duel had taken place on land, the gap between Junlin and the Red Emperor would have been even smaller.

The scepter of the Sea God allowed Tang Xian to breathe freely underwater and to control a certain degree of sea currents, but Tang Xian himself was more suited to combat outside of water.

The current environment created the best geographic advantage, after all, in the sea, he was inherently weaker than the Red Emperor who had lived in the deep sea for hundreds of years.

White smoke emerged from Tang Xian's skin, as if he had stepped out of swirling mists.

If previously Tang Xian seemed invisible to the Red Emperor, who only noticed Tang Xian through the innate keenness and experience of a powerful being, now Tang Xian gave the Red Emperor a genuine sense of crisis.

The Red Emperor no longer said much, it raised its fist, like a knight swinging a lance again.

Glistening with golden electricity, Tang Xian activated Streaming Light Refining Shadow, instantly adjusting himself to his fastest stance.

The battle began, with the wind of punches sweeping in.

The Red Emperor's strength and speed were still terrifying, not substantially weakened by the sudden creation of a "deep-sea land" by Tang Xian.

Even though Tang Xian now had Lei Xiao's embodiment, he was still slightly slower than the Red Emperor.

The duel between the man and the beast was less spectacular than the previous battle.

Tang Xian acted very cautiously, even when hit by the Red Emperor's iron fist, ensuring that the punch's power had been spent.

He constantly dodged and weaved, appearing to be worn down by defense.

But whenever the Red Emperor caught up to Tang Xian, forcing him into an unavoidable position, he would suddenly abandon defense and leave as many wounds on the Red Emperor as possible.

Relying on his incredible healing ability, although Tang Xian felt every punch from the Red Emperor could be fatal, he would always recover to optimal condition before the next punch landed.

This shameless style of fighting somewhat puzzled the Red Emperor.

"This human's healing capacity is truly terrifying!"

The Red Emperor thought, feeling the pain his punches inflicted on Tang Xian who always recovered incredibly quickly.

Ordinary sea beasts couldn't even withstand one punch, yet this human had endured dozens of his punches.

Even if countless more punches were thrown, it seemed pointless; the Red Emperor realized it was not a matter of quantity, but quality was still insufficient.

It suddenly stopped moving.

Tang Xian became alert; the fight was going well and he was resisting successfully, why stop suddenly?

Could it be that it was preparing a powerful move?

The Red Emperor, having experienced numerous battles, instantly sensed that the rhythm of the fight might have been manipulated by the opponent.

It snorted coldly, although Tang Xian's fighting was full of calculation, it had to admit, this human was also unimaginably strong.

In other aspects, Junlin was not weaker than itself, only its recovery ability was slightly inferior.

On the other hand, Tang Xian, overall weaker, possessed a terrifying recovery power.

Tang Xian suddenly felt a chill run down his spine.

An invisible energy suppressed him, and he tried to break free, only to find he couldn't escape at all.

"The Red Emperor actually has Telekinesis! I was careless…"

Tang Xian had thought the Guardian of the Destroyer would be like the Destroyer—someone who dealt critical physical blows.

But he never expected the Red Emperor to have this up his sleeve. It felt like a Shaolin monk suddenly pulling a gun from his robe, and Tang Xian felt the times had changed. The minions of the Destroyer are now using Telekinesis?

The enormous telekinetic restraint immobilized Tang Xian.

And the terrifying red energy concentrated in the Red Emperor's fists was the most overwhelming force Tang Xian had seen from the Red Emperor so far.

Previously, the Red Emperor was like a blood-knight wielding a deep red lance. But now, the Red Emperor was like an executioner holding a double-bladed ax.

Its fists clenched like hammers, Tang Xian seemed like a prisoner shackled by countless chains, waiting for the guillotine to drop.

The truly earth-shattering strike was about to fall.

This moment, Tang Xian, who smelled the scent of death, forcefully broke free from the restraint through sheer willpower.
