For a moment, Lord Zeng was speechless. He stood there and stared at Xu Que, speechless!
He had never expected that the enemy mentioned by Xu Que would be one of the most powerful cultivators in the Xuanzhen Continent.
Although Lord Zeng was also one of them, the more powerful he was, the more timid he would be when he stood at a higher position.
If there wasn't any deep hatred between them, the most powerful cultivators wouldn't be willing to fight with each other.
After all, at this level, they were only one step away from the Celestial Realm. If they fought with each other, it would only result in a lose-lose situation. Moreover, their enemies might even take advantage of the situation. So, it was really unnecessary!
However, the problem was that he had promised Xu Que that he would help him once. It was too late to refuse now. He could only be in a dilemma and felt that it was tricky!
"Let's talk inside!" Lord Zeng waved his hand and walked toward the pagoda with the little Princess in his arms.
Xu Que smiled and winked at Jiang Hongyan in the crowd. Then he followed Lord Zeng.
The moment he entered the pagoda, dozens of warrior monks rushed over and blocked the pagoda to prevent others from approaching.
At this time, Lord Zeng forced a smile on his face, "My young friend, you … you are not joking, right?"
He looked at Xu Que with the last bit of hope, hoping that it was really a joke!
Xu Que laughed and clapped his hands, "Hah, hah, hah, that's awesome! Lord Zeng is really smart. Yes, I was joking just now! Actually, I want all the things in the treasure house. I can't share them with you! "
F * ck!
Lord Zeng's mouth twitched immediately. He was so angry that he almost bled!
When he heard the first half of Xu Que's words, he let out a sigh of relief. However, when he heard the second half of Xu Que's words, he was so shocked that he almost sucked in his breath!
I'm talking about the Emperor! Who the hell wants to talk about the treasure house with you?
"Little friend, you mustn't joke about this! His Majesty's strength is not inferior to mine. Moreover … his daughter is the current Female Empress, who has been in secluded meditation for hundreds of years. How could she be your wife? "Lord Zeng chose to send a message directly. He was very cautious, for he was afraid that the content of the conversation would be overheard by someone with ulterior motives.
"Seclusion for hundreds of years? Heh, heh, I'm afraid you'll be shocked if I tell you something! "Xu Que sneered, turned around, and walked towards the entrance of the pagoda.
He stood outside the door and looked at Jiang Hongyan in the crowd. He waved his hand gently and said, "Madam, come here. Lord Zeng said he has a gift for you!"
F * ck!
Lord Zeng's eyes widened. When did I say that I was going to give you anything?
You just swindled me of an Immortal Concealment Herb, and now you're swindling me again?
However, the next moment, as Jiang Hongyan walked out of the crowd, Lord Zeng was stunned!
At this time, Jiang Hongyan was still wearing the human skin mask. However, when she walked to the front of the pagoda and turned her back to the crowd, she took off the mask and revealed her true appearance!
"Lord Zeng, long time no see!" Jiang Hongyan said with a faint smile. She looked very dignified, elegant, and dignified. She was born with the temperament of an emperor, which made her look like a supreme being.
Lord Zeng was immediately speechless.
Many years ago, he had indeed met this Water Empress and had some interactions with her. Therefore, he was able to recognize that the person in front of him was indeed the Water Empress from back then. She looked exactly the same, and even her temperament had not changed at all!
The only thing that surprised him was that the Female Empress's cultivation stage was not as powerful as before. She was only at Level 3 of the Crossing Calamity Stage!
"Greetings, Holy Senior!" Lord Zeng smiled bitterly and bowed to the Female Empress symbolically.
In fact, with his identity, he didn't need to follow the rules of the Tong Tian Nation, where he didn't need to bow to the Emperor. However, for the sake of Xu Que, he had to be polite.
"Now, do you believe what I said? Alas, Lord Zeng! It's not that I want to criticize you, but we are so familiar with each other. Why do you always doubt my words? Look at my handsome face. Do I look like the kind of person who would lie? "Xu Que said as he patted his cheek.
Lord Zeng couldn't help but feel speechless. He wished he could say "yes" loudly!
However, he was not in the mood for that. The appearance of Jiang Hongyan made him completely believe that Xu Que's target was the Emperor!
However, it was too difficult for him to make a decision!
If he won, it would be fine. If he lost, the Myriad Buddhas Sect would be ruined!
"Brother Zeng, don't look so sad. It's just the Emperor, right? There's nothing to be afraid of! Powerful people like us should be indifferent to life and death. If you are not satisfied, just fight! "Xu Que put his hand on Lord Zeng's shoulder casually and tried to persuade him.
Moreover, the way Xu Que addressed him changed from Lord Zeng to Old Zeng, and now to Brother Zeng!
However, Lord Zeng didn't care about that. He shook his head with a wry smile and said, "My young friend, you can be indifferent to life and death, but I can't! If something happens to me, what will happen to my daughter? "
"Don't worry, I'll take care of her for you!" Xu Que patted his chest and promised righteously.
Hearing that, Lord Zeng almost wanted to spit water at him.
Are you kidding me? You'll take care of her? Then wouldn't my little daughter be taught by you to be a female gangster?
What's more, it's not right. We agreed to go to the Imperial Palace together. Why should I die and you live?
"Alas, Little Zeng, listen to me. As the old saying goes, nothing ventured, nothing gained. If you help me, I might have a way to help you break through the shackles and reach the Celestial Realm!" Xu Que said again, tempting Lord Zeng meaningfully.
Hearing that, Lord Zeng reacted. His eyes lit up and he looked up at Xu Que. "My young friend, are you talking about the God-realization Tree of the Emperor? Could it be … you're willing to give me the God-realization Fruit? "
"No, no, no. The God-realization Fruit is mine. The reason why that crazy man could cultivate the God-realization Tree was that he took a strand of my wife's soul. So, I won't give it to you!" Xu Que waved his hand.
"What?" Lord Zeng's expression changed instantly. He turned to look at Jiang Hongyan.
Apparently, he was asking Jiang Hongyan if Xu Que's words were true. Did the Emperor really do such an infuriating thing?
Jiang Hongyan's expression was still as calm as water, elegant and dignified. She nodded her head calmly.
"This …" Lord Zeng was shocked. He opened his mouth but didn't know what to say.
He didn't expect that the Emperor's God-realization Tree was cultivated in this way. How cruel and merciless he was!
"My young friend, in this case, how can you help me break through the shackles and reach the Celestial Realm?" Finally, Lord Zeng brought the question back to the main point.
He was tempted by the condition offered by Xu Que. Breaking through the shackles and reaching the Celestial Realm was the ultimate goal of many people.
However, after so many years had passed, no one had been able to succeed in the end. Because at their level of cultivation, if they wanted to take another step forward, then unless they obtained divine treasures like the Dao Realization Fruit or the Immortal Bone Fruit, otherwise, it was truly impossible!
But now, Xu Que's words had rekindled the hope that he had almost given up on, and he wanted to take the risk.
Seeing Lord Zeng's expression, Xu Que smiled slightly.
A strand of profound meaning flashed in his pitch-black eyes. Then, he said with a faint smile, "The item that can help you break through the Celestial Realm is a unique specialty of the Exploding Heavens Faction. Its name is Super New Orleans' Invincible Chicken Drumstick Ultimate Castle!"
