Elder Yan took a puff of his cigarette and said, "This old man is used to being idle. I really can't take on the role of vice-captain. Lord Yuanji, please find another expert. I'll just be an ordinary member."
Liang Yuanji did not force the issue. He said, "Since that's the case, I won't force it." His gaze shifted to the other two Nine Star Martial Saints. There were only four Nine Star Martial Saints in the entire hall, including himself. They were considered one of the stronger teams.
One of the Nine Star Martial Saints cultivated an unknown cultivation technique. His entire face was pale green, as if he had been poisoned. He slowly said, "Since Elder Yan isn't up to the task, let me do it."
Liang Yuanji smiled and said, "With Mr. Green-faced as the vice-captain, I can rest assured."
Li Yunxiao felt dizzy. He did not know if this person's real name was Green-faced or if it was a random name like him.
"Hmph, if Elder Yan was the vice-captain, I, Tai Shida, would naturally have no objections. However, Green-faced as the vice-captain, hmph hmph, it's really hard to accept!"
The other Nine Star Martial Saint immediately revealed an unconvinced expression and said, "I feel that apart from Elder Yan, I'm the most suitable for this position."
The green-faced man's face turned even greener. A cold aura emanated from his body as he said coldly, "Oh? Tai Shida, are your bones itching again? "
Liang Yuanji immediately felt a headache coming on. He was afraid of this kind of team with no sense of unity. This was also the biggest problem of loose cultivators. In terms of individual strength, loose cultivators were generally stronger than sect disciples of the same rank. However, in terms of unity, they were far inferior.
Tai Shida immediately stood up from his chair and pointed at the green-faced man. He said fiercely, "My bones are itching, so what? If you're not satisfied, let's fight! "
The green-faced man jumped up from his chair. Without saying a word, he made his move. A green cloud appeared in front of him, and he directly attacked.
Liang Yuanji's expression changed greatly. He said angrily, "All of you, quiet down!" With a wave of his wide sleeves, the Universe Within Sleeve appeared in the hall. With a flash of black light, the green cloud was devoured.
Liang Yuanji stared at the green-faced man and said coldly, "This is the first time, and also the last time. At the same time, it is also the last time for all of you. If anyone dares to attack our own people again, I won't say anything. I will definitely kill them!"
The green-faced man's face twitched. He snorted and sat back down.
Tesdar did not say anything, but the light in his eyes grew colder and colder.
Liang Yuanji felt a headache coming on. How was he supposed to bring such a team out to face the enemy? He looked at Elder Yan for help, but Elder Yan just pretended to be stupid. He smoked his pipe and looked up at the ceiling.
Liang Yuanji felt helpless. His gaze swept across the area, and suddenly, he had an idea. He said, "I wonder if Lord Feiyang is interested in taking the position of vice-captain?"
"What? Him? "
Everyone was stunned. The main reason was that Li Yunxiao's appearance was too young. These people were all uncultivated. Even if he had the cultivation of an eight-star Martial Saint, it would be very difficult to shake everyone.
Many of them groaned and groaned, obviously unconvinced.
Especially the red-haired middle-aged man, he snorted a few times, as if he was afraid that others could not hear him.
Li Yunxiao was also stunned. He did not expect Liang Yuanji to directly pick him. In a situation where the three Nine Star Martial Saints were not up to the task, it was indeed the turn of the eight-star Martial Saints. However, there were four eight-star Martial Saints in the hall, and the other three were unconvinced at this moment.
He said, "I am young and inexperienced. Moreover, my strength is also very limited. I will just be a team member."
"Hmph, at least you are tactful and know your own limits."
The red-haired man was also an eight-star Martial Saint. A trace of mockery appeared on his face, and the corners of his mouth curled up to his nose.
Liang Yuanji smiled and said, "Lord Feiyang is too modest. Even I cannot see through your true cultivation, so it must be higher than what the profound weapon detected. Moreover, Lord Feiyang can deduce the situation at the front lines from the atmosphere in Lianguang City. He is also a meticulous observer and a thorough person. I feel that there is no one more suitable."
Li Yunxiao immediately felt 18 pairs of eyes staring at him. However, with his status, he naturally did not feel uncomfortable. He only felt that he was being roasted on a fire rack by Liang Yuanji. He smiled slightly and said, "Even if I am willing, there are many friends who are not. This will only add trouble to the team."
Liang Yuanji's gaze became slightly sharp, but the smile remained on his face. He said, "This will depend on Lord Feiyang's ability to deal with trouble."
Li Yunxiao met Liang Yuanji's gaze. Seeing the desire in the other party's eyes, his heart immediately moved. He agreed and said, "Alright, I agree to be the vice-captain."
"Hmph, even if you agree, we won't agree!"
The red-haired man finally flipped out on the spot. He said coldly, "What virtue or ability do you have to command us?"
Liang Yuanji's expression turned cold. A wave of pressure pressed down from the sky. He shouted, "Do you want to do it a second time?!"
Under the pressure, the red-haired man's face instantly turned pale. He hurriedly circulated his qi to resist.
A muffled explosion exploded in front of him. His entire person was jolted back. He said in shock, "Lord Yuanji, please calm down. It's just that I don't accept him! I am also an eight-star Revered Martial Artist. Why is he the vice-captain and not me?! "
Liang Yuanji said coldly, "My decision is an order! I have already said it very clearly. Do you want to overstep your boundaries? "
The red-haired man was shocked. He could already feel Liang Yuanji's killing intent coming from the sky. He did not dare to say anything more. His eyes were filled with hatred.
"We will naturally listen to Lord Yuanji's words. But if you send a yellow-haired brat to order us for no reason, it is really difficult to obey!"
Another eight-star Revered Martial Artist walked out and stood next to the red-haired man.
"Lord Yuanji, I have always respected you. But this time, you have indeed made a mistake a little too much."
Guan Xingyang's face was also serious. He stood up and walked to the side of the two to protest. He said, "After all, fighting against the Sea Race is not a joke. We have to be responsible for our own lives. We cannot put our lives in the hands of untrustworthy people."
"Yes! What the three lords said is very true. "
Everyone agreed. They did not think well of Li Yunxiao. It was even more difficult to accept that they had to listen to his orders.
The green-faced man and Taisida's faces were cold and full of mockery. Elder Yan was still smoking his pipe and lazily leaning on the chair.
Liang Yuanji immediately felt a headache coming on. This was why it was difficult to lead rogue cultivators. They had to be convinced of everything before they would listen. This team had not even been brought out yet and they were already having internal strife. He immediately lost confidence. This kind of team would probably be destroyed the moment they entered the battlefield.
When the red-haired man saw that everyone was supporting him, he was immediately overjoyed. He stared coldly at Li Yunxiao and said, "Brat, it is not that we are looking down on you. It is also not that we do not want to give you a chance. The simplest way is to start the martial competition. If you can win against any one of the three of us, I will be convinced. The position of vice-captain is yours!"
"That's right, I also agree!"
Guan Xingyang and the other eight-star Revered Martial Artist also nodded. They were not purposely making things difficult for Li Yunxiao. It was just that this matter was too important and could not be taken lightly.
Liang Yuanji's gaze immediately fell on Li Yunxiao. His lips moved slightly and he directly transmitted his voice, "Among the three of them, although Guan Xingyang's yuan energy pressure is more fierce, the path he takes is too firm and fierce. Furthermore, I know this person's background. He is a genuine poor cultivator and does not have any trump cards on him. He should be the easiest to choose."
He gave Li Yunxiao an encouraging look. He hoped that Li Yunxiao could take the field and suppress the situation.
Li Yunxiao smiled bitterly in his heart, but his face was expressionless. He directly stood up from his seat and stood with his hands behind his back. He indifferently said, "The three of you can come at me together. I will not retaliate for three moves from each of you. After three moves, as long as you can join hands and block one of my attacks, I will admit defeat."
"What?!"
Everyone was shocked. They were all stunned for a moment before bursting into laughter.
Everyone laughed until they bent over. Some even had tears in their eyes. They looked at Li Yunxiao mockingly and swayed from side to side.
"Haha, what did he just say? Haha, I'm dying of laughter. He wants to fight one against three and not retaliate? "
"And after three moves, he only needs one move to make his opponents admit defeat? Haha! "
"Why doesn't he say that he can kill three people with just a glare? Haha!"
All kinds of mockery continued, but Li Yunxiao's expression was indifferent. This was because this kind of thing could not be explained, and he disdained to explain. The result was clear to everyone very soon.
Liang Yuanji was also stunned for a moment. He repeatedly shook his head and smiled bitterly. At this moment, he felt that his decision was childish and laughable. No wonder everyone opposed it.
Such a reckless youth who spoke without thinking was indeed too young. He could only blame himself for having a particularly good impression of him, which was why he had the idea of promoting him. Now, he had completely given up on that idea. He also looked on coldly, intending to see how Li Yunxiao would deal with this situation.
Elder Yan, on the other hand, no longer had his previous lazy look. His face seemed to have become somewhat serious. He stared at Li Yunxiao as if he wanted to see through him.
The three of them were so angry that they laughed. They were amused by Li Yunxiao. Red Hair laughed angrily and said, "Good, good, you really have guts. You want to let the three of us have three moves, right? Then we will thank you very much!"
He looked at the other two, and they also shook their heads and sighed with a bitter smile. However, in order to cooperate with Red Hair, they also said, "If that's the case, then we will offend you."
The three of them suddenly moved and disappeared from where they were. In the next moment, they appeared beside Li Yunxiao and attacked at the same time.
A trace of ruthlessness appeared in the eyes of the red-haired man. He clenched his fist and with a whistling sound, he flew down from the sky. The other two lazily attacked from the front and the back. Their idea was very simple. They wanted to prevent Li Yunxiao from escaping and let Red Hair teach him a lesson.
Li Yunxiao casually took out his right hand from behind his back. He took a step forward and with a "pa" sound, he placed his hand on the red-haired man's wrist.
"What?!"
The red-haired man was instantly shocked. He couldn't even see Li Yunxiao's movements clearly. He found that his palm had been restrained, and the place where his opponent's palm landed directly cut off the circulation of his Yuan Li.
A chill ran down his spine. He had already realized that he had laughed at the wrong person!
