Bab 552: Chapter 548: Bai Xiuxiu Chickens Out, Draws the Sword at the Slightest Disagreement!_1
```
The Crimson Sea Region was pervaded by the stench of blood, desolate and devoid of any sign of living creatures.
Faint howls carried with the wind as if countless souls had just been laid to rest here.
A figure, a streak of azure as it cut across the sky, materialized.
With an air of immortality, the fine-featured young man was embracing a charming young lady of a refined and striking character.
"Brother Yu, this is the place," she said.
Bai Xiuxiu looked down upon the bloody sea below, wrinkling her nose in disgust, beautiful eyes flashing with both hatred and fear.
Luo Yu nodded.
Even without Bai Xiuxiu's reminder, he could tell that this was where the evil killer whales ran rampant.
"Swoosh!"
His Soul Power condensed in his eyes as he activated his Creation God Pupil, shooting two beams of Amethyst-gold light piercing through the void, illuminating the seabed.
The sight from a thousand meters below the sea surface flashed before his eyes in an instant.
Huge and terrifying creatures floated motionless below.
Each was twenty to thirty meters long, covered in grey-black skin, and immensely sturdy.
They had their eyes closed, as if they were resting and recuperating after a hearty meal.
Conversely, a group of smaller killer whales, each around ten meters in length, were glaring with dark red eyes, revealing teeth as large as swords, mercilessly tearing apart the body of a giant octopus.
The octopus struggled in vain and was quickly torn to shreds by the killer whales, who then feasted on it.
Luo Yu's eyes were as unfathomable as an ancient well, looking past the sharks as he continued to probe deeper.
He quickly found his target for this trip.
A gargantuan creature over forty meters in size, with an aura of sheer terror.
Its skin was marked with bands of demonic patterns, gleaming with a faint metallic luster, exuding a ferocity far superior to that of Bai Xiuxiu's mother.
Luo Yu withdrew his gaze.
He felt a gentle tug at the hem of his robe.
Turning his head, he saw Bai Xiuxiu's pitiful, pleading eyes.
"What's the matter, Xiu Xiu?" asked Luo Yu.
Bai Xiuxiu shrank her little head, "Brother Yu… should we… maybe go back for now, and regroup with my mother first?"
"Scared?"
"A little," said Bai Xiuxiu, her voice trembling as she gazed toward the bloody sea surface, "Shouldn't we retreat while those guys haven't noticed us?"
"With me here, what's there to fear?" Luo Yu pointed downwards, "It's those beasts that should be scared."
Bai Xiuxiu's beautiful eyes fixed firmly on Luo Yu.
His calm, self-assured demeanor somewhat shook her composure.
She remembered how her most revered tribe leader, her mother, had shown unprecedented caution when encountering the evil killer whale clan, avoiding their sharp edges.
And yet, this man seemed to not even consider them a threat?
"Brother Yu, what do we do next?" Bai Xiuxiu asked, somewhat at a loss.
"You just stay safe in my arms," he replied.
"Ah? It's that simple??" Bai Xiuxiu said, astonished.
"Mhm."
Embracing Bai Xiuxiu with one arm, Luo Yu extended his free hand and summoned,
"Sword!"
"Clang!"
A flash of light in his palm.
The sound of the sword echoed throughout the desolate Crimson Sea Region.
The ancient Longsword appeared.
Six blood-red Soul Rings materialized swiftly, pulsating with strange undulations.
Luo Yu acted with resolve.
He raised the Longsword, and the fourth Soul Ring merged with it, transforming the appearance of the Zhu Tian Sword as it blazed with a fiery orange-black glow.
Fire elements rapidly converged.
"Sword Like Flowing Fire."
"Slash!"
Luo Yu swung the Sky-Punishing Longsword and a sword light swept by, flames reaching for the sky.
In an instant, the water in front of him exploded, cleaved in half by the fiery sword light.
"Sizzle, sizzle!"
The sea churned, plumes of white steam rapidly rose and drifted towards the sky.
The orange-black flames, unfazed by water, continued to burn downwards.
Suddenly, the clan of evil killer whales on the seabed was disturbed.
"Roar!"
```
The enraged roar echoed from the sea depths, stirring the crimson water into agitation.
"Swoosh, swoosh!!"
One after another, massive evil killer whales burst forth from the seabed, spitting purple-black water droplets, bombarding the persistent burning orange-black flames.
Bai Xiuxiu's pupils constricted, and her delicate body involuntarily trembled.
Luo Yu remained unmoved, tightening his grip around Bai Xiuxiu's slender waist.
"Don't be afraid, I've got this."
Soon, the fiery light was extinguished, and evil killer whales filled the sea area. Looking around, there were at least two to three hundred of them.
They all glared with dark red eyes, aiming at Luo Yu and creating a formidable sense of oppression.
They didn't immediately attack, as if waiting for something.
"Gurgle, gurgle!"
The sea's surface first bubbled up with countless foam, then giant waves surged.
A massive evil killer whale king surfaced, drawing roars of submission and awe from hundreds of evil killer whales.
"Brother Yu... that's the killer whale king."
Bai Xiuxiu instinctively clung tightly to Luo Yu's body, trembling with fear, her snowy legs taut.
Living in the ocean year-round, she had a natural fear of this killer whale king.
"Hiss—"
Luo Yu took a deep breath.
Actually, this girl was only wearing his blue shirt, with nothing underneath.
Clinging so close, he couldn't help but be distracted.
"Roar!"
A deafening roar pulled him back to reality.
The killer whale king rubbed his knife-like terrifying teeth, emitting rage-filled, bloodthirsty growls.
"Damned human vermin, who gave you the courage to come to my territory and provoke me?"
"Oh?"
Luo Yu raised an eyebrow, then shook his head.
"Sorry, I'm not here to provoke you."
The killer whale king bared his teeth mockingly, "Now you're scared?"
"Too late."
"Any creature that dares enter the sea under my command only has one way out—death."
Luo Yu laughed.
"I think you might be misunderstanding something."
"My coming here was indeed not to provoke you."
"Because…"
"I'm just here to take your worthless life."
All the evil killer whales stopped roaring at once, their dark-red eyes somewhat glazed over.
They were truly shocked by Luo Yu's bold declaration.
"Hahaha!"
The killer whale king laughed uproariously, then squinted his dark red beastly eyes as he stared over.
"Ignorant human, with what strength do you dare to run wild here?"
"Ridiculous, absolutely ridiculous."
Luo Yu raised his longsword, the fire receded, returning it to its simple jade-like appearance.
The blade faintly reflected his transcendentally handsome visage.
He glanced sideways at the whale pod, and said leisurely,
"Don't worry, you won't be able to laugh for much longer."
"Hahaha."
The killer whale king laughed even louder.
"Interesting, you humans are truly interesting."
"Rest assured, the sudden appearance of such an interesting little creature—this king won't be eager for your death."
"Tsk."
Luo Yu's lips curved upwards.
He flicked his wrist casually, and the sword light flashed across the air.
The sea surface below to the side split apart as three sizable evil killer whales were neatly bisected in half, flesh and blood flying, severed organs dropping into the sea, and the surrounding stench of blood growing even stronger.
"You dare!!!"
The killer whale king roared in fury, black-red ferocious light erupting from his body, the seawater exploded with countless droplets, his aura majestic and utterly terrifying.
