"Everyone be careful, this Taoist Pingtian is very strange!"
An old man reminded the people around him with a serious look:
"Don't be fooled by his words!"
Not far away, Bull Demon King looked at the crowd who were facing a formidable enemy and couldn't help but want to complain:
"Old Taoist priest, aren't you good at settling things? Why didn't it work this time? Are you no longer capable?"
Taoist Pingtian glared at Bull Demon King and said in a deep voice: "I am only at the Mahayana stage, not at the Tribulation Crossing stage. If you keep talking nonsense, I will ignore you!"
The Bull Demon King pursed his lips and muttered softly, "That's right, why don't you let the bull say it!"
Taoist Pingtian didn't want to bother with Bull Demon King at all. He was like a stupid teammate, unable to accomplish anything, but always causing trouble. He only knew how to slander his teammates all day long. He looked at the group of Mahayana realms in front of him. Even though he felt a little stressed, he owed Xu Kaipin a favor, so he had to change his mind. He could only say:
"With me here, you can't win even if you have more people, so why don't you all go home and come back another day? What do you think?"
"Humph, you want to deceive us again. Who do you think you are? You are just a casual cultivator who got lucky!"
A slightly younger Mahayana realm cultivator was distracted again. Seeing that his companions were not affected at all, he became angry and humiliated and shouted at Taoist Pingtian.
This person's words were agreed by the others, because they had never heard of the Taoist Pingtian taking action. Usually, things could be settled with just a few words. So it was very likely that the Taoist Pingtian's strongest point was to use words to confuse people, and his actual fighting power was not that strong.
"Hahahaha, you old man with a big nose, they look down on you!"
The Bull Demon King almost burst out laughing.
Taoist Pingtian's face darkened. This damned bull has started to cause trouble again. Sooner or later, I will use your bull head as a drink. His eyes stayed on the Bull Demon King's head for a moment, then he swept his eyes to everyone and sighed:
"Do you really have to force me? I never like fighting in my life. I only love peace and I have never made an exception!"
When the Bull Demon King heard this, he was silent, because he had suffered a loss for this. When he provoked the old Taoist priest with the Ox-nosed Bone, he used the same rhetoric. He believed it at the time, and ended up being the Taoist priest's mount for several years.
"Haha, so what if I force you? You are a poor casual cultivator who stole some ancient technique from who knows where, and you dare to meddle in the internal affairs of our Great Shang Dynasty. You are simply too bold and you are a little impatient with life!"
A powerful Mahayana master from the royal family of the Great Shang Dynasty stood up and mocked Taoist Pingtian.
However, the words had just fallen.
Taoist Pingtian took action, using a strange ancient technique to evolve a divine form in the void, as if there were thousands of Taoist rhymes outlining it. A ball of light emerged and shot towards the man at an imperceptible speed.
Bang!
Because Taoist Pingtian attacked so quickly, so quickly that no one could react, the person who had just spoken suffered a great loss and was hit by the ball of light. A large hole appeared on his chest. Fortunately, he was wearing armor, otherwise his chest would have been pierced directly. Even so, the injury was not light, and his combat power was weakened by at least two levels.
"Let me correct you. I, a poor casual cultivator, have obtained more than one ancient technique. I will start with you!"
Taoist Pingtian disappeared from the spot in a flash, like an elusive gust of wind rising straight up. In an instant, he came in front of the man, punched him, and then retreated into the distance. His figure was illusory and elusive.
"presumptuous!"
The five powerful Mahayana masters beside this man were furious. It would have been fine if this Taoist Pingtian had just attacked them by surprise, but now, this Taoist Pingtian actually wanted to seriously injure his companions under their noses. This was simply too arrogant!
They each developed their own magical powers and blocked the attack of the Taoist Ping Tian. As the aftermath of the energy poured out, the void trembled violently. They glared at the Taoist Ping Tian fiercely and said:
"Pingtian Taoist, you first robbed the prisoner, and now you are injuring someone. How can we, the Great Shang Dynasty, tolerate you for being so reckless?"
"If you don't let me stay here, I will go somewhere else. I am just a casual cultivator. The world is so big, and I feel at ease everywhere!"
Taoist Pingtian did not take the threat from the other party seriously at all, because the Great Shang Dynasty was just a big force in Zhongzhou. Compared with the five regions of the world, it was not a behemoth. Once outside the Great Shang, his words would be equivalent to nonsense and would not affect anyone at all.
"Why do we feel so weak? It's clear that the King of Xiliang only has three people on his side!"
"It's not possible that even if all the forces of the Great Shang Dynasty came out, we still couldn't capture the King of Xiliang. If this gets out, wouldn't the people of the world laugh at us?"
"If we really let the King of Xiliang escape, it would be like letting a tiger go back to the mountains. After he returns to Xiliang, he will definitely cede land and become the king. By then, my Great Shang will have such a grave threat at my side and will surely be unable to sleep or eat in peace!"
Among the carriages and horses responsible for escorting the prisoners to the capital, some people were whispering. After all, they were still people of the Shang Dynasty, and naturally did not want the King of Xiliang to successfully escape. Moreover, if he really escaped, the emperor would not necessarily punish those Mahayana realm powerhouses, but would definitely punish them.
"That shouldn't be the case. We have so many people in Da Shang. Two against one is more than enough!"
"The King of Xiliang is powerful, but his people are not. If it were me, I would attack these people, take them all as hostages, and force the King of Xiliang to submit!"
"Shh, keep your voice down. Don't let the King of Xiliang hear us. We are just small fry. If we get involved, we could easily lose our lives!"
No matter how small the voice was, others had heard it. For example, when Lu Bufeng heard this sentence, his eyes suddenly lit up. Without saying a word, he quickly walked to Wei Bao, put his ear close to his and whispered something.
Upon hearing this, Wei Bao showed a sinister smile on his face, patted Lü Bufeng on the shoulder, and said:
"General Lu, I was right about you. You are indeed the most loyal general of our Great Shang. If this matter is accomplished, when we return to the capital, I will definitely ask the emperor for credit for you. Maybe you can also get a title like Xu Kaipin!"
"It's all thanks to Eunuch Wei's good teaching!"
Lu Bufeng flattered Qu Yandao.
Wei Bao really appreciated this kind of military commander who spoke so well. He nodded with satisfaction, then looked at the heroic and domineering King Xiliang not far away, and said in a pinched voice:
"King Xiliang, even if you can escape successfully with the help of Bull Demon King and Taoist Pingtian, what about your people? Are you going to abandon them? Or do you not care about their lives at all!"
When the prisoners in the prison car heard Wei Bao's words, they did not look at Xu Kaipin, but insulted Wei Bao with extremely harsh words, saying that he was a hermaphrodite, had a rotten butt, and could not give birth to a child...
Anyway, just say whatever unpleasant words you find.
Wei Bao was deeply hurt by some of the words. A hint of murderous intent flashed across his eyes. He looked at Xu Kaipin and said word by word:
"Xu Kaipin, we remember you were not like this!"
Xu Kaipin looked hesitant and remained silent for a moment.
