Chapter 223 Using People as Guns
After listening to the Bull Demon King's words, Lu Ping couldn't help but sigh, this Western religion is really too overbearing sometimes.
Forcing others to join the religion, isn't this an act of banditry?
And you are not allowed to drag your family with you. For a normal monster like the Bull Demon King, it is almost like killing you.
But after all, the power of the saint is there. Although the Bull Demon King also wants to break away from the Western religion, he still doesn't want to take such a risk as long as he is not really forced to the last step.
Better to die than live.
The Bull Demon King discussed some details with Lu Ping and Huang Xiaoqi before getting up and leaving.
After seeing him leave, Huang Xiaoqi frowned and said, "It seems that the Western religion has taken us seriously. This time they sent the Bull Demon King and the Elephant-riding Arhat, but they may not be the same people next time."
Having said this, she looked at Lu Ping curiously: "Husband, why don't you agree to ambush the arhat riding an elephant?"
Lu Ping shook his head and said: "That Bull Demon King is a quasi-sage. From his words, it can be seen that even if he is a quasi-sage, he is not 100% sure of leaving the elephant-riding arhat alone. It can be seen that The strength of the Arhat riding an elephant is extraordinary. You said that the two of you worked together to kill that guy. Can you say that the Bull Demon King will hold back? You definitely can't. Go all out. It's still unclear who will kill him. If you kill the riding elephant, you can't. If the Elephant Arhat gets merit, that's all. If the Bull Demon King kills the Elephant Arhat and gets the merit, let's not say that we helped him for nothing, but we will have deeper hatred in the Western Sect. To take a step back, if the Bull Demon King has the intention to Is it unreasonable to attack you suddenly?"
Huang Xiaoqi smiled and said, "You don't trust him?"
"Of course I don't trust him!" Lu Ping said in a deep voice: "When we first met, why should I trust him? Now that the catastrophe has begun, for the sake of merit and Hongmeng Ziqi, who can trust whom? So if you fight him, just let him go. Because, after all, he is a quasi-sage, so he won’t be beaten to death by you. Don’t hold back and give him a chance to plot against you!”
Lu Ping had already thought about it. Although he said that Huang Xiaoqi would hold back, if he really got angry, he would not let Huang Xiaoqi hold back.
If there is only five points of force here and ten percent of force there, wouldn't it be a big misfortune?
"Hahaha!" After Lu Ping's words fell, a burst of laughter came, and Tongtian appeared at the door of the living room. He looked at Lu Ping and said with a smile: "You kid, you really have a dark heart. If the Bull Demon King is accidentally beaten to death What should I do?”
Lu Ping rolled his eyes and said: "I don't care if he dies or not, you can't say that something will happen to my wife, right? Who told him to come? Who told him to let me cooperate with him in acting? To put it bluntly, since that guy has a monkey to give him Phone, why didn't you contact him directly? Instead, after arriving at Fengmingxing, he sneaked into the Seven Phoenix Sect. It can be seen that he was also pondering the idea of taking action. He must have sensed something before he finally decided to ambush and kill the Elephant Riding Arhat! It can be seen that he has made preparations, and since I have no friendship with him, who knows if he will change his mind again? I can’t let my wife take risks and act with him because he wants to gain benefits! The risk must be borne by him!"
The Bull Demon King never expected that Lu Ping had already seen some meaning in his actions.
Tongtian nodded in agreement and said: "It makes sense. You really can't take the risk on this matter. But don't worry, that old cow will never dare to change his mind!"
"Why?"
"Because he saw me!"
Upon hearing this, Lu Ping became more certain of his thoughts.
This Bull Demon King was indeed a member of the Seven Phoenix Sect with bad intentions, but he was finally frightened by Tongtian and decided to ambush and kill the Elephant-riding Arhat.
But then, Lu Ping's eyes narrowed slightly!
Why does Tongtian appear in front of the Bull Demon King?
If he hadn't been willing, it would have been absolutely impossible for him to be discovered by the Bull Demon King!
coincide?
Where are there so many coincidences?
As his mind raced, Lu Ping seemed to have some ideas.
However, he didn't point it out and just smiled and said: "Senior Tongtian, it seems that you don't want that guy to die."
"Yes." Tongtian said: "So, just use 80% of your strength. Your wife's Nine Dragon Pendant is extremely powerful. With 100% of your strength, if the old cow is suddenly attacked, I'm afraid he won't be able to hold on!"
"Then it's 80% strong!"
Lu Ping made a decision.
Huang Xiaoqi had no objection.
After Tongtian Cult Leader left, Huang Xiaoqi said: "Why do I feel that you two have a tacit understanding? What kind of riddle are you two playing?"
Lu Ping said softly: "It's not really a riddle, it's just that Senior Tongtian wants to use the Bull Demon King's mouth to convey the news that he is here to the Western Sect!"
"Why?" Huang Xiaoqi was a little confused.
Lu Ping stood up, stretched, and said, "The reason is very simple. He doesn't want me to be friends with people from Western religions anymore, that's all."
Lu Ping guessed right, this is what Master Tongtian meant.
When he appears here in Lu Ping, he will unknowingly put his label on Lu Ping.
I just want to say that what Tongtian Cult Leader thought before was that the Bull Demon King was dead. If he came back alive, he could just deliver the news. But since Lu Ping was cooperating with him in a play and he didn't particularly want to kill the Bull Demon King, he might as well save the Bull Demon King's life. , This will make it more convenient for the Bull Demon King to go back and send a message.
As for whether the Bull Demon King will send a message? This is inevitable. In order to throw the blame away from yourself, the best way is to exaggerate the enemy's power!
In Zixiao Palace, Hongjun frowned and finally murmured: "No, no, this cause and effect is wrong. How can there be such obscure cause and effect? Where is Tongtian? Is this guy's Taoism already so profound?"
Some of the things Lu Ping learned had a great impact on Hongjun's deduction of secrets.
Because Lu Ping himself is an extremely special existence.
Hongjun didn't pay attention to those ordinary creatures, so Lu Ping had never been in his sight before.
But now, Master Tongtian is in the Seven Phoenix Sect and has gotten involved in some things.
It may be impossible for others to deduce these things, but Hongjun is in harmony with the way of heaven, so this cannot be hidden from him.
As a result, the current situation is that the cause and effect of some of the actions of the Tongtian Cult Leader are obscure and unclear.
This is something Hongjun has not experienced in many years.
It can even be said that Hongjun's mood is a bit chaotic!
"Is Tongtian going to break through the current realm?"
What is above the saints?
what else? It’s hard for Hongjun to say.
He followed the path with his body and walked to the floor above the saint.
But this is just his way.
If Tongtian breaks through the cultivation of a saint on his own, what kind of magical powers will he have?
This was something he couldn't be sure of either.
After all, nothing like this has ever happened since the beginning of time.
Even Hongjun himself was not sure whether the saint could break through again without external assistance.
Back then, even he couldn't see the end or hope, so he finally chose to follow the path of heaven.
"It would be interesting if you can break through. Come on, my disciple! I hope you can jump out of the chessboard, otherwise, sooner or later, you will still be the one who will fall into trouble."
After all, Hongjun did not move, nor did he choose to find the so-called truth.
He held everything in his palms and understood everything in his heart, and he felt a little expectant.
Maybe you can see a disciple taking a different path!
Hongjun, who was in harmony with the way of heaven, became a truly immortal existence.
But at the same time, he also lost something.
The Seven Phoenix Sect's recruitment operation is still in progress. After a period of assessment, Lu Ping's Seven Phoenix Sect has recruited a large number of disciples.
Seeing that the matter of recruiting disciples is coming to an end.
At this time, Lu Ping received an invitation again, and the fairyland monks from Fengmingxing sent an invitation to Lu Ping.
Although he didn't know what they were going to do, Lu Ping happily went to the appointment.
The last time this happened was when Lu Ping wanted to promote Heavenly Court.
At that time, Lu Ping's cultivation was much worse than these people, but now Lu Ping's cultivation has completely crushed these people.
"Sect Master Lu, please take your seat quickly!"
In front of a long table, Lu Ping was placed directly in the middle position.
This gave Lu Ping the illusion that he had become a talkative person like a gang boss or chairman.
Looking at the seniors in front of him, all with nervous smiles on their faces, Lu Ping didn't know what they were thinking about.
"What's wrong with you guys?"
Lu Ping asked directly.
"That's right, we would like to ask, where does Sect Leader Lu plan to relocate?"
One of them asked.
"secret!"
Lu Ping would not tell them. In fact, Lu Ping had no idea where to go now!
Seeing that Lu Ping refused to say anything and no one dared to force him, a monk who looked like a Taoist priest smiled and said: "That's right, before we came here, we heard that Emperor Yunxiao said that Sect Master Lu is the star officer of our Fengming Star. Let us all listen. You arranged it, but you have been in seclusion since we came back. As soon as you came out of seclusion, you said you wanted to move away, so what should we do? "
Lu Ping looked astonished and said with a smile: "You just nominate another star officer! Everyone takes turns doing this, isn't it great?"
Everyone looked stunned.
Someone immediately smiled bitterly and said: "Sect Master Lu, your Seven Phoenix Sect is the main combat force of our Fengming Star now. If you leave and another foreign enemy attacks, what should we Fengming Star monks do?"
Lu Ping looked at him and said seriously: "Come on and practice, I believe you can do it! I can improve my cultivation over time, and you can do it too! Don't lose your confidence!"
Everyone looked at each other, was this the time to pour poisonous chicken soup?
If Lu Ping was believed, his death would definitely be miserable.
"Sect Master Lu, you are a genius. We are not. Please help us."
Now these people have a low profile.
Lu Ping pondered: "How about everyone move? Maybe it would be good to live on a different planet."
Upon hearing this, everyone smiled bitterly and said: "Where to move, there are Western monks everywhere now. In the past few days, I heard that the Western Cult has received a large number of recruits, and many planets around their influence have been cleaned up. Even our Emperor Chongxi They were all chased and beaten!”
"Huh?" Lu Ping really didn't know about this: "How did you know?"
"Now everyone uses Hongmeng Yuanverse to communicate, and various news reports are flying all over the Yuanverse forum!"
Someone revealed the source.
In fact, the Metaverse was originally used as a message exchange place in the universe, but it was not taken seriously before.
The reason is also very simple. Don’t you have enough things happening on your own planet?
Who cares about other planets?
Therefore, although there is some interstellar news, except for the particularly important ones, it is difficult for others to pay attention to it.
But since the war between Heaven and the Western Church, the situation has been different.
Although the Yuan Universe does not have much value to monks above the Immortal Realm and imposes restrictions on their cultivation, it does not prohibit their entry.
For all fairyland monks, the trends in Western religion and heaven are very important.
After all, there are not a few monks who join the Western religion. For example, Huiming from Fengmingxing. Monks from this Western religious tradition will basically join the Western religion.
In this way, all kinds of information are very precious.
True news and false news are flying everywhere.
But overall, most of the news is true and reliable.
What they heard was correct, it was the Western Sect Cihang, and Fearful Sun who came here, which also led to the Western Sect's power in the southeastern star region increasing greatly.
A rapid counterattack began.
Lu Ping frowned when he heard what they said. The Western Sect has come to reinforce them, so nothing will happen to Yunxiao and the others, right?
It's not that he has any special feelings for Yun Xiao and others, but after all, they met each other and had a good relationship. Lu Ping didn't want to see them die.
But at the moment, he couldn't allow him to think too much. All these monks started chattering in his ears.
"Sect Master Lu, you can't leave. You are now the backbone of our Fengming Star."
"That's right, what will we do if you leave? If foreign enemies come again, we will have no choice but to let them massacre us."
"Sect Master Lu, it's better to stay!"
The main purpose of these people today is to want Lu Ping to stay.
Lu Ping shook his head and said: "The relocation of the Seven Phoenix Sect has been decided for a long time and cannot be changed. I still say the same thing. If it doesn't work, you can just move. Move to a planet where there are experts, or find a place to dig deep. Damn it, keep him in seclusion for hundreds of years, and maybe the catastrophe will be over."
This is a real and effective method.
If you really don't want to benefit from the catastrophe and find a place to hide it, then it will be too difficult to find it.
To put it bluntly, even if you are a quasi-sage, it is difficult to find a fairyland monk who can hide on the entire planet.
"Sect Master Lu, you'd better stay!"
"That's right, please, we will feel confident if you stay."
"Please also ask Sect Master Lu to please stay and lead us for the sake of being from the same planet!"
Watching these people pleading one by one.
Lu Ping sneered in his heart.
How could he not see what these people were thinking?
It was clear that he wanted to keep him as a gun. If there was a strong enemy when the time came, Lu Ping would be on top. If he won, he would beat the drowned dog together and collect the merits of heaven and earth. If he lost, they would disperse in a hurry, and they would sneak away and hide.
Lu Ping rubbed his fingers and thought about it while looking at the old guys in front of him who seemed to be sincere but not necessarily thinking about anything.
After thinking for a moment, Lu Ping smiled and said: "It is definitely impossible to stay, but if you are willing to join the Seven Phoenix Sect and come with us, it is possible."
