"… However, you have your own ideas, and I have my own considerations. How about this? Let's have a one-on-one battle. If you can break through the defense of my Black Heavenly Treasure Mirror, I'll grant you your wish. How about that? "
However, when they heard the old Daoist priest's last sentence, they swallowed the words that were about to come out of their mouths. The Black Heavenly Treasure Mirror was a top-notch defensive weapon. It was because of this magic treasure that they were suppressed by the old man. That's right, in their minds, that was indeed the case. Only the legendary Sages could break through the Black Heavenly Treasure Mirror. But this brat in front of them … Ah, forget it. He was simply bullying them.
"Are you serious?"
However, to everyone's surprise, that brat's expression was stern. He looked like he was moved, or rather, he had completely agreed. Now, he was actually asking them if they were joking.
Was this fellow's head kicked by a donkey? Did he really think that this was some kind of preferential treatment? What a joke! He was really too young. His knowledge was too shallow. How could a frog at the bottom of a well know the power of the Black Heavenly Treasure Mirror?
"Of course, I'm not lying!"
The Yin Yang Holy Master stroked his white beard and smiled amiably. He had always been engrossed in cultivation and neglected political matters. However, as the head of a large organization, he was not an idiot. He had long sensed the movements of his subordinates. However, he was ultimately a compassionate person. Furthermore, he was not very interested in power. Thus, he had always let them be and went with the flow. However, this had fueled the ambitions of his subordinates. He did not nip them in the bud. Now, the bud had already grown into a towering tree. What was done could not be undone. It was impossible to change anything.
Indeed, what those people thought was true. The Yin Yang Holy Land did not belong to him alone. Thus, he did not have full authority over it. He was sick and tired of this life of scheming and scheming. However, it was not appropriate to hand the Yin Yang Holy Land over to these greedy people. Now that Tianyun City's army was pressuring the border, it gave him an excuse.
It was impossible for them to directly agree to hand over the Yin Yang Holy Land to Sky Fortune City. They would not be able to answer to the disciples of the Yin Yang Holy Land. Therefore, they could only raise conditions. None of the other conditions would be able to keep everyone quiet. Only the Black Heavenly Treasure Mirror would be able to shut everyone up. However, as the owner of the Black Heavenly Mirror, he naturally knew how powerful his magic treasure was. He had already made up his mind. He would go easy on his opponent during the duel and lose just like that. At that time, what was done was done, and there was no turning back. No one would have any objections, and even if there were, they wouldn't have the support of the majority. Thus, it would be useless.
It had to be said that the Yinyang Saint Lord was the leader of a large force. Even if he had no interest in politics, his understanding in this aspect was not something that ordinary people could understand. Perhaps many people would be able to see through his plan in the end, but this plan was brilliant. Even if those people saw through it, there was nothing they could do. He could only suffer in silence. Otherwise, even if he were to jump out, he wouldn't be able to garner any support. After all, to these Taoist disciples, their words carried enormous weight. Credibility was the most important thing. If they couldn't even keep their word, then what was the point of cultivating? They might as well break their Taoist heart and cripple their cultivation. Then, they could return to the mortal world and be a commoner.
"If that's the case, then fine! … I hope you don't go back on your words! "
Chu Rui squinted his eyes and released the anger that he had been suppressing for a long time. He rushed out crazily. The frightening aura caused everyone's expression to change.
"Disciples of the Holy Land, protect yourselves!"
The white-bearded Taoist priest roared. Instantly, countless voices of agreement echoed.
Everyone was very confident in the Black Heavenly Treasure Mirror. However, the vicious aura that Rui was currently emitting was not something that could be taken lightly. Until now, the white-bearded Taoist priest still had absolute faith in the Black Heavenly Treasure Mirror. The reason why he asked the disciples to be careful was because he was afraid that the aftershocks of the collision would affect them. After all, there were still many disciples in the Yin Yang Holy Land with low cultivation. Just the aftershocks might be able to injure them.
"Come on!"
Seeing that the entire Yin Yang Holy Land had been set up, the white-bearded Taoist priest heaved a sigh of relief. He activated the Black Heavenly Treasure Mirror and let it float in front of him. Then, he said to Chu Rui.
"Let me give you a piece of advice!" Looking at the white-bearded Taoist priest's serious face, Chu Rui suddenly curled his lips. His eyes were somewhat cold and stern. Under everyone's puzzled gaze, Chu Rui continued to speak. His words made everyone, including the white-bearded Taoist priest, extremely angry. "You'd better use your full strength and the full power of the Black Heavenly Treasure Mirror. Otherwise, I'm afraid it will be over in an instant and that thing will be destroyed."
"Impudent brat!"
"Who is this brat? He's so arrogant! "
"Hmph, why don't you look at yourself in the mirror? How dare you speak so arrogantly? How audacious!"
"Son of a b * tch, does he really think he's someone important? What kind of treasure is the Black Heavenly Treasure Mirror, and what kind of person is the Holy Master? It's laughable that he has never seen the world outside of the bottom of the well. He's so full of himself. What a joke. "
"…"
As soon as Chu Rui's words left his mouth, the Yin Yang Holy Land's disciples below began to furiously criticize him. Although the white-bearded Taoist priest was obsessed with cultivation, it was undeniable that his personal charisma was extraordinary. He had a very high prestige among the disciples, so they had a strong sense of belonging to the Holy Land. Chu Rui was an uninvited intruder to begin with. Moreover, he had killed the general guarding the place. Now, he looked down on the Holy Master in their hearts and even looked down on the Holy Land's number one magic treasure. How could they tolerate this?
"Young man, the world is big. You must maintain a humble attitude towards people and matters. You must be down-to-earth and conscientious. This is the right path!"
The white-bearded Taoist priest was also a little angry. Originally, he treated Chu Rui as the Special Envoy of Tian Yun City and addressed him as Your Excellency. Now, he had changed his attitude. From his point of view, Rui was overestimating his own capabilities. He was prepared to go easy on Chu Rui. This also showed that he thought Chu Rui was not as good as him and could not break the Black Heavenly Treasure Mirror's defense. However, Rui's lack of understanding, and his arrogant words, was truly intolerable.
