Relying on their status on Penglai, the Peng family was so powerful that even the ancient city guards had been assimilated. They were fierce, chivalrous, and extremely arrogant.
It could be seen from their attitude toward outsiders that the carriage Wang Ling and the others were in had a clear nine-star imperial family symbol, symbolizing that the people in the carriage were direct descendants of some great emperor.
Even so, this group of assimilated ancient city guards didn't take them seriously. They were completely unreasonable and looked down on this group of great emperors.
Such an arrogant attitude undoubtedly made the Great East Sovereign very angry. He instinctively wanted to slap this guard in the face.
But just as he raised his hand, Wang Ying forcibly controlled his body and held him down. "Just use your aura to intimidate them. If you slap them, this guard will die. It won't be good for our subsequent plans. "
As soon as he finished speaking, his aura was transmitted at the same time. Wang Ying had only released a little spiritual pressure, but the expressions of this group of ancient city guards instantly changed dramatically, and they could no longer laugh.
As if they had been petrified, they stood where they were and didn't dare move at all.
"They're done. Their realm will stop here for the rest of their lives, and they won't advance any further, "Monk Jin Deng said at that moment, having seen some clues.
This wasn't just an ordinary aura deterrence; at the same time, some nomological curses had been added to make these arrogant ancient city guards receive the most terrifying punishment as a cultivator.
To them, this was a punishment that was far more miserable than death.
Even so, East Great Emperor was still depressed. "These people eat the public grain of our four territories, but they betray their master for glory. They really can't be punished!"
It was hard to imagine that East Great Emperor, who had always been gentle and kind among the four emperors, could be so furious.
If the other emperors hadn't been possessed by outsiders, it was likely that these ancient city guards would have died as well.
As if expecting this reaction from East Great Emperor, Wang Ying said indifferently, "The environment can change people. Vanity, privilege, and everything that can tarnish the human heart may make these people think that they are superior to others, and thus completely forget that they are just dust in this world. "
Everyone sank into deep thought at Wang Ying's words, and even Wang Ling was a little surprised; he had never thought that his own shadow could actually think so deeply.
Sometimes, he would think about what the essence of cultivation was, and occasionally weave a few golden sentences in his mind. However, he had never shared these words with anyone else.
This was because he realized that there were too few people who could truly understand him, or rather, they simply didn't exist.
The loneliness of being at the top could only be described as "it's too cold at the top" …
The East Great Emperor tried hard to calm himself down. In the end, he listened to Wang Ying's words obediently and did not kill these ancient city guards in front of him.
Of course, although Wang Ying's curse was real, it didn't give the ancient city guards a chance.
"If they can come to their senses in this life and rein in the horse before the precipice, this curse will naturally be lifted. Unfortunately, they've already sunk too deep. "Wang Ying sighed.
"What on earth did the Peng family instill in them?" Liu Qingyi looked at these petrified ancient city guards and felt it was a great pity.
They had cultivated for more than a thousand years, and had originally been chosen to guard an ancient city in a central region. If they could wait until the handover and return to their respective armies, they would definitely have boundless prospects in the future.
But who would have thought that these people would choose to court death on this day? It could only be said that this was a kind of destiny.
A number of carriages bearing the mark of the nine-star imperial family finally landed outside Penglai City. The spirit light from the Peng family's bejeweled main residence reached the sky even through the city walls. Looking down from the sky, this golden residence had been shocking, and now that they saw it face to face, they felt the Peng family's domineering nature even more.
Wang Ling and the others wanted to park the carriages directly in front of the Peng family's main residence, but they couldn't stop on such a wide street.
It was only when they approached Penglai City that they noticed the luxurious carriages and all kinds of divine beasts lined up in an orderly manner in front of the Peng family's main residence.
"What's going on? There's a traffic jam in the eternal world? "In the Pegasus carriage, Lotus Sun frowned.
"I'll go and ask."
Zhang Zide immediately got out of the carriage and used the spirit stones he had prepared as a tip. He casually grabbed a passing rogue cultivator and asked him.
After receiving a large sum of money for the inquiry, the rogue cultivator's unhappy expression at being stopped instantly smoothed out. "It's like this, these carriages are all here to propose marriage. I don't think … you're also here to propose marriage, are you? "
"So many … to propose marriage?" Everyone was astonished.
This was the information they had received after integrating the intelligence network of the four emperors, and was probably firsthand information. But no one would have thought that the marriage proposals had actually already begun.
Furthermore, there was a long line in front of the Peng family's main residence.
Zhang Zide instantly understood. The only possibility was that the Peng family had spread the news locally and started to openly recruit people.
But this made things completely different. No matter how big the local families on Penglai were, they couldn't be as big as the Peng family, so the son-in-law they found definitely couldn't compare to the Peng family in terms of family background. At most, he would be a live-in son-in-law! Furthermore, he wouldn't be the dragon king's live-in son-in-law!
This astonished everyone on Wang Ling's side.
This Peng Beicen was the daughter of the Peng family; why would she find a live-in son-in-law who didn't match their family background?
How anxious was she to get herself married off?
"Miss Peng is a very eccentric person, and this marriage proposal was her idea to begin with. Lord Peng especially dotes on her, so Miss Peng practically handles everything herself. "
This passerby rogue cultivator looked like he was watching a melon. "If Miss Peng takes a fancy to anyone, whether it's an official marriage or a live-in son-in-law, it's a supreme honor. Once you're on the Peng family's big boat, you definitely won't lack cultivation resources in the future. "
"What else do you know?" Zhang Zide asked as he gave him another bag of spirit stones.
The passerby rogue cultivator nodded with a satisfied expression. "I advise you to leave. This Miss Peng is a very lustful person. Although it'll be very touching to be on the Peng family's boat, she might overdraw her kidneys! "
"Overdraw her kidneys?! Lustful? Why do you think so? "
"Because I heard that Miss Peng isn't just going to marry a live-in son-in-law today … this long line is to recruit a harem for herself!"
"…"
"How many have you chosen so far?"
"Not yet, because the requirements are too high." The passerby rogue cultivator sighed. "Hahaha, I was just watching the fun. There was a guy called Kuxuan who was rejected by Miss Peng. She said that his kidneys weren't good."
"…"
