But on the way, Luo Ping used his soul sense to search many times, but he didn't find any trace of the stalker, which made him more vigilant.
To be able to avoid the detection of his soul sense, the stalker was either an expert who had reached the Primordial Martial King Realm, or a secret agent who had undergone strict training and was responsible for tracking.
No matter which one it was, Luo Ping didn't want to meet either of them. Although he could compete with or even defeat the stalker by using some unique skills, he would not be able to take advantage of the stalker, not to mention that Chen Xiuxiu was with him.
The latter was even more difficult to grasp. Even if he caught the secret agent, he wouldn't know the power behind the secret agent and would be in a passive situation. Sooner or later, he would face a sneak attack.
"Giddy up! Cousin Xiuxiu, slow down. Be careful of danger! "
Luo Ping sped up and used his Internal Force to remind her loudly.
"Cousin Ping, don't worry. I've walked this road so many times. There won't be any danger. Giddy up, come and catch me! "
Chen Xiuxiu just wanted to go back quickly. Why would she care about the sudden danger? Not only that, she sped up again to show off, intending to have a chase with Luo Ping.
In desperation, Luo Ping could only grit his teeth and raise his speed to the limit to catch up with her. He released his soul sense to check the surroundings to prevent any sudden danger.
"Ah!"
"Ow …"
Just as Luo Ping finished his work, Chen Xiuxiu's exclamation and the neighing of the horse came from the front.
"Oh no!"
Because Chen Xiuxiu had exceeded the range of his soul sense, he didn't know what had happened. But he was sure that something had happened.
Luo Ping whispered. In a hurry, he immediately flew up from the horse's back and used his Lightness Skill to fly forward at a speed far faster than the horse.
Luo Ping could no longer see the trees on both sides of the road. The horses galloping behind were getting further and further away. In the blink of an eye, there was no trace of them.
Due to his eagerness to save someone, Luo Ping activated all the internal energy in his body. Wind blew under his feet, and he was as fast as lightning. In just a moment, he had flown a few hundred meters away.
At this moment, he finally saw the situation in front of him clearly. He saw that Chen Xiuxiu's horse had been decapitated and its corpse was lying quietly on the ground.
In front of the horse, Chen Xiuxiu was being strangled by a middle-aged man in bright clothes. He had a ferocious face and was unable to move. It seemed that her acupoints had been sealed.
Behind the two of them, there were more than ten people lined up on both sides, looking like they were ready for battle.
The middle-aged man's eyes had been fixed on the direction Luo Ping was coming from, as if he had been waiting for him. When he saw Luo Ping's figure appear in his line of sight, his eyes suddenly burst into flames of anger. His body trembled with excitement, and the hand that was strangling Chen Xiuxiu's throat could not help but increase its strength.
"Ugh … Cough cough …"
Chen Xiuxiu was being strangled to the point that she could not breathe. She let out a painful cough. At this moment, Luo Ping finally arrived in front of everyone and stopped in front of the horse's corpse.
"Zhang Fugui? You're still not dead? Hurry up and let go of Cousin Xiuxiu. Otherwise, the four of you, father and son, can forget about living today! "
From afar, Luo Ping saw the four figures of Zhang Fugui and his sons. He was slightly shocked. He did not understand how they could escape safely and even appear here.
This was because he had already learned from Zong Yuanhao that after the crisis at the border was resolved, the Monarch had led the army back to the imperial capital and severely punished the Second Prince, Sixth Prince, and the others.
The two princes had colluded with the enemy country. One of them had captured the important officials of the imperial court and threatened the Monarch. The other one had secretly intercepted and captured the martial artists who were participating in the Battle of Champions. Moreover, they had also offended their superiors. Their crimes were unforgivable.
Although the Monarch did not take the lives of the two princes after Zong Yuanhao and the officials pleaded for mercy, they were still demoted to commoners and sent to other places. As for the accomplices of the princes, the Governor of Mi Province, Pang Hui, as well as Zhang Fugui and his son, did not escape the fate of being imprisoned. All of them were arrested.
According to the national law, colluding with the enemy and betraying the country was a capital offense. However, Zhang Fugui and his son were not harmed at all. Moreover, they had even set up a trap to intercept Luo Ping and his son. This made Luo Ping even more cautious.
If it were him, he would not even waste his breath and would have attacked immediately. However, now that Chen Xiuxiu was in their hands, he had no choice but to calm down.
"Let her go? Sure, but you have to cripple your own martial arts and kneel down to beg me. Otherwise, wouldn't the twenty thousand taels of gold I spent to leave the death row prison be wasted? "
Zhang Fugui's face revealed a ferocious and sinister smile. When Luo Ping saw this, he wanted to slap him and rearrange his facial features.
At this moment, Luo Ping also understood why Zhang Fugui and his son could be safe and sound. It was all because of the saying, "Money makes the world go round." With the other party's wealth, it would be easy for them to bribe the officials.
"Cousin Ping, don't listen to him. Leave quickly."
Chen Xiuxiu spat out a sentence with difficulty. She shook her head slightly and signaled Luo Ping to leave quickly.
"It seems that you are really willing to spend a lot of money. Since you and your son value me so much, I can't look down on you. How about this, as long as you let go of Cousin Xiuxiu, I can be magnanimous and leave your corpses intact. Otherwise …"
Ignoring Chen Xiuxiu's dissuasion, Luo Ping revealed a disdainful and ruthless smile. In the eyes of Zhang Jujin and his two brothers, as well as their followers, there was a bloodthirsty taste. They couldn't help but feel cold all over.
On the other hand, Zhang Fugui did not know where his confidence came from. He did not care about Luo Ping's threatening words and instead laughed loudly.
"You refuse a toast only to be forced to drink a forfeit. Do you really think that you are invincible after becoming the Great General and the Wulin Alliance Head? Young man, one cannot be too high-profile. Otherwise, it is easy to make too many enemies. "
Just when Luo Ping did not understand the meaning of Zhang Fugui's words, a figure flashed from the side of the forest and steadily stopped by Zhang Fugui's side.
The appearance of this person made Zhang Fugui and the others even more relieved. They had no doubts about killing Luo Ping and taking revenge.
On the contrary, Luo Ping's originally calm face became incomparably dignified at this moment. This was because his spiritual sense did not detect the slightest trace of this person.
"Xiantian Martial King?"
Although he did not want to admit it, Luo Ping slowly revealed the strength of this person.
"Haha, that's right. This old man is here to send you on your way!"
"Send me on my way? Old man, don't brag when you are old. Be careful that you don't have enough blood supply. "
"Luo Ping, death is at hand. I am not afraid to tell you that Senior Ao Shan is a member of the royal family of the Great Ao Nation. According to seniority, he is the grandfather of Ao Sen. You used a scheme to destroy the Great Ao Nation. Now it is time for you to pay the price."
Zhang Fugui saw that Luo Ping did not know what was good for him and actually resisted verbally. His heart was blooming with joy. His action was also a step ahead and he revealed the identity of the old man beside him.
On the one hand, he wanted to intimidate Luo Ping and let him feel fear. On the other hand, he wanted to intensify the conflict between the two sides. He might be able to take advantage of this situation.
When Luo Ping heard this, he was really shocked by the identity of the old man. He thought that after the national extermination, the remnants of the Great Ao Nation had been completely eradicated. He did not expect that … a big fish would appear now.
What was even more unexpected was that this big fish had colluded with Zhang Fugui. Although he did not know what the two of them were plotting, it was certainly not a good thing.
"I did not expect that there would be a fish that escaped the net. Since you have come to our country, don't go back. Sleep here forever! As for you … "
Luo Ping pointed at Zhang Fugui and the others. His sharp eyes and overbearing momentum made them feel as if they had fallen into an ice cave.
"You have colluded with foreign enemies again and again. There is no saving you. Don't think that you can leave here alive today."
"Hahaha, little brat, you are really arrogant. No wonder you can rise to fame in such a short time. However, today is the day you die."
After Ao Shan finished speaking, he immediately took action. Both of his hands suddenly pushed forward and a monstrous qi wave suddenly swept out like a tornado with boundless strength. It was as if Ao Shan wanted to smash Luo Ping into a meat patty.
"Ah! Wu wu … "
When Chen Xiuxiu knew the identity and strength of the old man, her face had already turned ashen. Her tears fell down uncontrollably. She signaled Luo Ping to leave countless times but Luo Ping shook his head and refused.
This made Chen Xiuxiu cry even more. Although she knew that Luo Ping's strength was not what it used to be, the old man in front of her was a genuine expert of the Primordial Martial King Realm. She did not believe that Luo Ping could defeat him.
Moreover, she was still in the hands of the enemy, which was also the factor that limited Luo Ping's ability to fight with all his strength. If it was just Luo Ping alone, even if he could not defeat the old man, it should not be a problem for him to escape.
Just when Chen Xiuxiu was imagining things, she suddenly heard Aoshan's voice. She was anxious and reluctantly reminded him.
In fact, even without her reminder, Luo Ping had already been on guard. In the face of an expert of the Primordial Martial King Realm that he had never met before, he did not dare to relax. Although on the surface he was very relaxed, in fact, his heart was beating like a drum.
He quickly went through all his means and moves in his mind, intending to find a unique skill that could quickly restrain the old man. Otherwise, the longer the time dragged on, the more dangerous it would be.
Seeing Aoshan attack without warning and without the demeanor of a senior expert, Luo Ping understood that the old man intended to cut the Gordian knot and kill him in the shortest time possible.
"Hum, since you are so confident, let's see who will have the last laugh."
Aoshan's Qi waves rolled up by his Internal Force were very fast, but Luo Ping's reaction was faster. He struck out a fist and a palm at the same time, counterattacking in front of everyone's expectant eyes.
"Ape Arm Divine Fist — Broken Moon!"
"Illusory Shadows!"
With a fist and a palm, Luo Ping used 100% of his Internal Force without any reservation. His fist was like a flying meteor, with a red light overflowing the sky. In the process of moving forward, it became bigger and bigger. In the blink of an eye, the shadow of the fist became bigger than a person's shadow.
