Chapter 262 1 versus 3
"I am Zixiao, you two gentlemen have just visited my humble home, I am sorry for not hosting you well enough."
Ali felt his hands and feet were cold, and Meng Yan opened his mouth wide.
I should have guessed where the vast snow-capped mountains thousands of miles west of Chang'an were.
Kunlun!
The head of Kunlun, one of the top five in the world, Immortal Zixiao!
"Master Zixiao, my master has never had any grudges with Kunlun, right?" Meng Yan's lips were dry. It was already difficult for Yan Hui to win alone, and now there was another Master Zixiao. Not to mention the two of them, even if the master came in person, the chances of winning or losing would be fifty-fifty.
"I have always admired the Pavilion Master." Zixiao has white hair, but his face is as handsome as a teenager, and his voice is clear and noble.
"Even if Master Yan Hui persuades me, I can still promise that as long as the old Pavilion Master is willing to return to the academy to spend his remaining years, and the gentlemen go back to study for a few years, I will personally come to your house to apologize one day."
Ali snorted coldly: "I don't even know what my junior brother has that is worthy of the three top five in the world to attack together."
"I don't know either, so I want to ask him to come back and ask. By the way, the Pavilion Master is a hermit and is always in the mortal world, which is not good for the world."
Ali smiled and said, "This is the truth. Junior brother is just an excuse. The teacher is your goal. You keep talking about the world, but it's just because the teacher is here that you feel you are being suppressed. Why don't you just tell me how much benefit you have received from the emperor?"
True Man Zixiao shook his head and said, "I'm afraid it's hard to explain it to you two. Let's go talk to the old Pavilion Master. Mr. Si is proficient in the art of space. How about working with me to build another bridge?"
Meng Yan chuckled: "That's a nice thought."
"Pity."
Zixiao took out a mirror from his bosom and said, "This is the treasure of our Kunlun sect. It can barely be considered as a heavenly rank, so it is not an insult to the fourth master."
"Hurry up!" Ali pushed Meng Yan hard, but it was too late. A beam of light shone directly on Meng Yan, and the light disappeared as soon as it touched him.
Meng Yan collapsed to the ground, his whole body shaking uncontrollably.
Ali picked up Meng Yan, and the fighting spirit in his eyes increased instead of decreasing.
"Don't panic. If you get timely treatment, you will be fine in forty-nine days."
Zixiao flipped the mirror, and a beam of light shone on him, and layers of glass mirrors appeared out of thin air.
"Master Yan Hui, please lend a helping hand to this poor Taoist."
Yan Hui walked over slowly and placed his palm on Zixiao's shoulder. The mirror suddenly grew larger and extended infinitely into the distance.
"He took away my Liuli Realm." Meng Yan was barely breathing.
"Okay, Mr. Second, do you want to go together?" Zixiao put away the magic mirror and turned to look at the two of them.
Ali gritted his teeth. If it were him, he would have tried his best to stop the two from going over today, but Meng Yan's condition was critical. Zixiao said that he needed timely treatment, but if he didn't leave, where could he get treatment in this icy and snowy place?
So Ali held Meng Yan in his arms and stepped into the Glazed Realm first. The next moment, they arrived outside a palace filled with golden light and purple lightning.
Zhang Tianshi's face became visibly older, the thunder of the electric grid began to dim, the talisman was the first to give out and burned with a puff, the golden light covering the hall disappeared, and even the ancestral peach wood sword began to show tiny cracks.
This was the second time that Zhang Tianshi was knocked out in his life. The first time was when he was competing for the position of Tianshi and was defeated by a senior brother. However, his senior brother was unlucky and died early during the training.
If not for this, he would not be able to change his surname, let alone be qualified to be a celestial master.
However, this does not mean that his cultivation is not good. His performance today is definitely worthy of the title of top five in the world.
He successfully held back the best in the world.
The old man appeared outside the hall, put his hand on Meng Yan's forehead, and spiritual power poured in. Finally, a hint of color appeared on Meng Yan's face.
However, Ali did not show any joy. Behind him, Yan Hui and True Man Zixiao walked out together.
"Teacher." Ali lowered his head, feeling a little aggrieved.
"The bald donkey's heart is unstable, and you broke the boundless sea of suffering?"
Ali nodded.
"Well done. In a few years, he won't be your opponent. With the teacher here, what are you afraid of?"
The old man glared at Yan Hui and said, "You are bullying the weak with your power. You are as shameless as ever."
Yan Hui smiled and said nothing.
"Zixiao, I should have thought it was you. Without Kunlun's innate coldness, how could the bald donkey and the little Taoist priest have the ability to trap me? But why don't you cultivate your immortality and come down the mountain?"
True Man Zixiao stepped forward and said, "The world is in such turmoil, I feel that you and I are both responsible, why don't we return home now, the mortal world belongs to the mortal world."
The old man shook his head: "My young disciple said that monks are just like ordinary people, they are all human beings. When the world is in turmoil, monks have the power of cultivation and should stand up. My disciple did a good thing but has to suffer. How can I just ignore it!"
Zixiao thought for a moment and said, "Mr. Liu's words and actions are reasonable."
"So you just accepted the emperor's favor, but used these words to cover up your own faults."
Zi Xiao nodded, then shook his head: "You are right, I received a benefit, but it was not from the Emperor Tang."
The old man frowned, and after a long moment he was in doubt: "Emperor Liao?"
Zixiao nodded again.
"If the Liao people move south, the world will become even more chaotic."
Zixiao still nodded: "I said, the mortal world belongs to the mortal world."
"Fuck you!"
No one compromised, no one gave in.
The three men slowly moved apart and surrounded one person in the middle.
The top five in the world, three against one, no suspense.
Meng Yan was seriously injured, and Ali needed to protect Meng Yan from being affected by the battle. He could no longer leave.
"Old immortal, please be merciful and don't hurt innocent people. How about we use the outer wall of this side hall as the boundary?" Yan Hui walked forward slowly.
"Okay, send the emperor here, and I promise not to hurt anyone outside the wall."
It is easy to guess what conditions the emperor promised the Liao Kingdom. It was nothing more than promising the Liao Kingdom to lend troops to the south to suppress the Honglian Rebellion. Once the Liao army marched south, not to mention how much the court would have to pay, wherever the army passed would inevitably be devastated.
The emperor was willing to sell out his country in order to kill him.
The emperor must die!
Even if another palace coup is triggered, at least the bloodshed can be controlled within this imperial city.
"You want to see the emperor? Sure." Yan Hui reached into his bosom and pulled out a scroll: "What a pity, I didn't want to use it."
Although he didn't know what this scroll was, the old man instinctively sensed a hint of danger. There were not many things in this world that he could feel were dangerous.
Can't let him open it!
The old man moved, and Zhang Tianshi and Zixiao Zhenren also moved. Zixiao Zhenren took out the magic mirror that could destroy Meng Yan with one move without hesitation, and shone it at the old man.
But the old man was so fast that the beam of light only left a shadow.
And Zhang Tianshi swung the peach wood sword and stabbed at A Li and Meng Yan who were standing beside him.
Although shameless, it does work.
The old man had to retract the palm that was attacking Zixiao, and pointed his finger in the air at Zhang Tianshi who was a few meters away.
With a flash of golden light, a talisman on Zhang Tianshi's body shattered. However, this talisman was unable to block the old man's full-strength attack. Zhang Tianshi staggered two steps and the sword's tip dodged.
Ali kicked in the air without hesitation, and the fire dragon took advantage of the momentum to pounce on Zhang Tianshi, knocking him back a few steps.
"Teacher!" Ali put Meng Yan down and attacked Zixiao Zhenren first to create an opportunity for the old man to capture Yan Hui.
No one dared to ignore Ali's attack, and Zixiao was no exception.
So the old man seized this opportunity and grabbed Yan Hui.
"late."
