Want the Scorpion King? Yuan Gang's heart sank. He pursed his lips and pretended not to hear.
Hua Meiru's face turned cold.
Yu Cang sweated and almost called Yuan Gang ancestor.
Although he didn't know who was still in the air, he could guess who it was based on some signs. One of the nine saints, Saint Lord Lu, had come in person and someone had come to deliver a message. You lunatic dared to pretend to be deaf and mute?
Yu Cang was scared out of his wits. If he had known this would happen, he wouldn't have asked for this person's help. He wasn't here to help, he was here to harm others.
The others were even more terrified. Cold sweat broke out on their backs and they all had the urge to call Yuan Gang uncle.
Yu Cang moved to Yuan Gang's side and pulled his arm, "Brother Yuan, the envoy is asking you a question."
Yuan Gang turned around. He wasn't stupid and pretended not to know, "What?"
Hua Meiru raised his hand again and showed him the token of the Misty Pavilion.
Yuan Gang stared at the token as if he couldn't understand it, "What?"
Hua Meiru was angry. Yu Cang hurriedly said, "Silly, this is the token of the Misty Pavilion, one of the nine. Seeing the token is like seeing the Misty Pavilion's envoy come in person!"
It wasn't the new Misty Pavilion Huo Kong, but he could take out such a token. There was no need to say who the person in the air was.
Yuan Gang said calmly, "I haven't seen it before. I don't know if it's real or not."
Hua Meiru scolded, "How dare you!"
Yu Cang and the others were completely flustered by Yuan Gang. They didn't know what to do. Why was this person like this? Was he someone who would let him do whatever he wanted? They realized that they had really met an ancestor, an ancestor who wanted their lives!
Luo Zhao, who was also behind the Scorpion King, was stunned. He looked at Yuan Gang in disbelief. He was a little impressed. He didn't know what kind of taste Feng Guaner had for him to fall for such a weirdo!
He also wanted to ask Yuan Gang, were you here to help or to cause trouble?
Lu Wushuang stared down from the air, her eyes filled with suspicion. What was going on? Hua Meiru had personally come to ask for something. Was there any difficulty?
She really wanted to go down and see what was going on, but she thought highly of herself and disdained to be associated with the group of people below.
Yuan Gang remained calm on the surface and asked, "I'm not a cultivator and have never seen it before. Can't I ask if it's true or not?"
Hua Meiru snorted twice. If it wasn't for the fact that this fellow was at the crucial point of the Kingdom War and was suspected of breaking the Nine Saints Agreement, she would have taught him a lesson right now. She spoke coldly, "Do you think it's true or not?"
"It's true, it's true." A group of people echoed.
Yu Cang quickly pulled on Yuan Gang's sleeve. "Brother Yuan, I've seen the token before. It's real. It can't be wrong."
Yuan Gang stared at Hua Meiru and asked, "Who are you?"
Hua Meiru said in a low voice, "Does it matter who I am? Don't you know that seeing the token is like seeing the Misty Pavilion's Master in person? "
Yu Cang felt like crying. What kind of people were in the Thatched Cottage Villa? Niu Youdao was a troublesome fellow, and this fellow was indescribable. He quickly pulled on Yuan Gang's sleeve again and reminded him, "Why aren't you paying your respects to the Master Envoy?"
Yuan Gang was silent. It didn't matter if he was silent, but everyone else's hearts were in their throats!
Fortunately, Yuan Gang finally gave in. After staring at Hua Meiru for a moment, he cupped his hands and said stiffly, "Greetings to the Master Envoy!"
Hua Meiru stared at him for a moment before she slowly kept the token and said word by word, "The Misty Pavilion wants to use this Scorpion King. Leave it here immediately!"
Yuan Gang turned back to look at the Scorpion King that was moving forward and asked, "What for?"
Hua Meiru was enraged. "What does the Misty Pavilion have to do with you?" She didn't know what to do with it and couldn't give an answer unless she went back to ask Lv Wushuang. However, she couldn't possibly ask. If she couldn't settle such a small matter, how could she have the face to go back and ask?
Yuan Gang said, "I don't dare! It's not mine. You can keep it if you want. "
Hua Meiru had seen people who didn't know what was good for them, but she had never seen someone who didn't know what was good for them. Hua Meiru's eyes gradually widened. She was furious, but she couldn't act rashly. She said word by word angrily, "I told you to leave it here!"
Yuan Gang said, "I can only order it to move forward. I can't order it to stay."
Hua Meiru said angrily, "Are you trying to defy the Misty Pavilion's decree?" If he really wanted to defy the decree, then she could really make a move.
Yuan Gang stared at her again.
Everyone else, including Yu Cang, started to have cold sweat on their foreheads.
Yu Cang's Adam's apple moved rapidly. He pulled Yuan Gang again and said, "Hurry up and obey the decree!"
He really didn't want to say anything more, but he was afraid that Yuan Gang would be implicated!
Yuan Gang said, "I don't dare! I'll try my best! "
Hearing this, everyone let out a sigh of relief.
Yuan Gang then said, "All of you, back off."
Yu Cang and the others immediately did as they were told. They flew to both sides and landed on the backs of the other sand scorpions. Luo Zhao was also taken away.
However, Hua Meiru was facing off with Yuan Gang. She was a little angry. She almost shouted herself hoarse, but Yuan Gang reluctantly obeyed her orders. Now, Yuan Gang was ordering her around.
But she couldn't figure out the situation. She had to obey Lv Wushuang's order. She snorted coldly and flew to the side.
Yuan Gang turned around and walked to the head of the Scorpion King. Looking at the Scorpion King that was moving forward under his command, he looked at the Scorpion King that had saved his life. He regretted summoning it for an extra layer of protection. His cheeks tightened again.
Finally, it seemed to have made a decision. It suddenly opened its arms in the air. "Ah …" It let out an emotional cry.
The Scorpion Emperor, which was moving forward at a moderate speed compared to the other sand scorpions, suddenly sank its huge body and plunged headfirst into the sea of sand. Using the powerful momentum, it stirred up sand in all directions, as if a huge wave had been stirred up. Its limbs moved quickly as it quickly drilled into the sand.
The people on the surrounding sand scorpions quickly cast spells to resist the sand wave.
The sand scorpions running behind immediately bypassed this point and continued to move forward.
Yuan Gang, who had crashed into the ground, jumped up and landed on the rolling sand. On both sides, there was an army of sand scorpions rushing by.
The Scorpion King quickly sank into the ground and disappeared. The bulging sand dunes also slowly collapsed until there was no more movement. Yuan Gang's body was half buried in the sand.
Yu Cang and the others who had followed the sand scorpions immediately flew back, including Hua Meiru. They landed around Yuan Gang and watched the sand scorpions rushing forward.
The soldiers riding on the back of the sand scorpions looked at this group of people who had landed midway, not knowing what was going on.
The sand scorpions ran very fast. The mighty army soon passed, and the whole world became quiet.
Hua Meiru looked back and coldly squinted at Yuan Gang, whose lower body was covered in sand. "Let the Scorpion King out. You don't have to worry about the rest. You can leave with the team."
Yu Cang hurried forward and reached out to grab Yuan Gang's arm, pulling him out of the sand.
Yuan Gang opened his arms again and shouted loudly, "Ah … Ah … Ah …"
Everyone looked at him and watched him shout for a long time. Then they looked at the desert under their feet and around them. Why didn't they feel any movement?
Yu Cang murmured in his heart. He didn't summon the sand scorpions like this, did he? Thinking of this, his heart suddenly skipped a beat and his expression became nervous. He silently prayed, "Ancestor, don't be silly again. You will die!"
Yuan Gang, who had shouted over and over again, stopped and turned to face Hua Meiru.
Hua Meiru asked, "Where is the Scorpion King?"
Yuan Gang: "Gone."
"…" Hua Meiru's mouth was a little dumbfounded.
Gone? You mean it's gone? Who are you kidding? The eyes of Yu Cang and the others almost popped out. They didn't expect Yuan Gang to give such an explanation after shouting for a long time.
Yu Cang was furious. He had just helped pull the man out of the sand. If he had known this would happen, he would have buried him alive!
In the blink of an eye, Hua Meiru flew into a rage out of humiliation. She pointed at Yuan Gang and yelled, "Are you tired of living? I order you to summon the sand scorpions immediately! "
Lv Wushuang, who was in the air, frowned. She didn't know what was going on. Seeing that they seemed to be quarreling, she finally couldn't help but descend to the mortal realm. Her dress fluttered as she landed lightly on the sand. She said coldly, "What's going on?"
Hua Meiru immediately cupped his hands and shouted, "Hurry up and greet the Peerless Saint!"
Lv Wushuang had indeed come in person! Yu Cang and the others were terrified. They all cupped their hands and bowed. "Greetings, Saint!"
Some people muttered in their hearts. They didn't know if it was because of this idiot. Otherwise, they wouldn't have had the chance to meet Lv Wushuang.
Yu Cang glanced at Yuan Gang's movements. He was impressed. What a ruthless person! He finally learned today that he couldn't afford to offend this idiot. If he could survive this, he would never want to see this guy again. You're ruthless, I really can't afford to offend you!
Yuan Gang stood there motionlessly. After meeting Lv Wushuang's eyes, he tightened his face and cupped his hands and bowed.
Hua Meiru suddenly pointed at Yuan Gang. "Master, Yuan Gang resisted the decree and refused to hand over the Scorpion King!"
How could there be such a bold person? Lv Wushuang was a little surprised. She stared at Yuan Gang and asked, "Why not?"
Yuan Gang stood up straight and replied, "It's not that I don't want to hand it over, but I can't summon it."
What did he mean? Lv Wushuang was a little stunned. When she saw the Scorpion King burrowing into the ground, she thought it was a pause to wait for the sand scorpion army to come over. In the end, she couldn't even summon it.
The others also thought it was a pause to summon it. Who would have thought that Yuan Gang would dare to disobey!
Hua Meiru said, "Master, he's quibbling. He has the intention of refusing to hand it over from the beginning."
Lv Wushuang naturally believed her. He already felt it was strange that Lv Wushuang was procrastinating. Now that he got the answer, he was still a little surprised. How could this guy be so bold? He asked coldly, "Why can't you summon it?"
Yuan Gang said, "I wanted to summon the Scorpion King during the first transport of the Qin soldiers' horses, but I couldn't summon it until this morning. I don't know what's going on either. Maybe the Scorpion King is a little different from ordinary sand scorpions."
Who said he couldn't lie? For him, lying was also dependent on the time.
Of course, from his point of view, it wasn't a lie in this situation.
Yu Cang and the others looked at each other. Hearing Yuan Gang's words, they didn't know if it was true or not, but it was indeed the case. They hadn't seen the Scorpion King before, and it did appear today. Could it be that they really misunderstood this guy?
