Chat by the fire? Hong Gaitian's red brows twitched as he looked in the direction he came from. Indeed, there was no one chasing after them. He made a hand signal for his men to spread out and be on guard. Then, he glanced coldly at the shifty-eyed man beside him.
It was as if he was saying, "Didn't you say there was an ambush and I told you to run? What's going on? "
The shifty-eyed man understood what he meant. How could he admit defeat so easily? He immediately retorted to Niu Youdao, "Chat by the fire? There's not a single person by the fire! "
Niu Youdao pointed at himself, then at Yun Ji, her son, and Wu Zhaoxing, "Aren't we people?"
The shifty-eyed man said, "Don't give me that. Is there anyone who chats by the fire? By the fire or by people? Isn't that like burning a mountain? "
After being depressed for a long time, Niu Youdao was in a good mood when he saw these people. His tone lightened as he cupped his hands and asked, "May I ask for brother's name?"
The shifty-eyed man puffed out his chest and raised his head, "Duke Su!"
Was this a name, or was he trying to take advantage of others? Niu Youdao looked him up and down and said cheerfully, "Good name!"
Duke Su waved his hand, "Don't go off topic. You weren't chatting by the fire!"
Niu Youdao shook his head, "That's not important. What's important is that I feel like old friends with you."
Duke Su said, "How is it not important? I suspect that you're up to no good! "
He had to emphasize this point to prove to Hong Gaitian that he did not lie about the military situation and scare everyone away.
"It's not that serious! The few of us are not blockheads. We will naturally sense that someone is approaching us. Naturally, we will hide in the dark to investigate. We were indeed chatting by the fire earlier. We didn't mean any harm, "Niu Youdao said lightly before looking at Hong Gaitian with a bright smile on his face.
This reason made Duke Su speechless, but it also helped him smooth things over. It was a misunderstanding and he did not lie about the military situation.
Hong Gaitian's eyes flickered for a while. "Since it's a misunderstanding, let's go our separate ways. Farewell!" He waved his hand and prepared to leave with the group.
Now that they finally met, Niu Youdao would not let him go. He hurriedly shouted, "Third Master, why aren't you resting at night? Where are you going? Could it be that you're aiming for some good things? Can you take care of me? "It meant to bring him along to get rich.
Hong Gaitian said in disdain, "Do I need to tell you where I'm going?" He turned around and was about to leave.
Seeing that he was unwilling to acknowledge him, Niu Youdao pointed at the surroundings. "It's so dark here, isn't it inconvenient to look for the spirit seed? Looking at Third Leader's appearance, could it be that you're afraid of something? Could it be that you're seeking refuge? "
Hong Gaitian turned around and chuckled. "Niu Youdao, you can't even protect yourself. You're about to die, so I think you should be the one who should seek refuge, right? No, you don't even have the right to seek refuge. You should worry about yourself. "
Niu Youdao immediately followed up. "I'm afraid we're in the same boat. Do you think you can leave Heaven Capital Mystic Realm alive? If I didn't guess wrongly, the people from the seven countries should be trying to kill you, right? This is just the beginning. You won't be able to get past the exit! "
When he said that, the group of people were bewildered.
Duke Su pointed at Niu Youdao's nose. "Niu Youdao, stop making irresponsible remarks here!"
Hong Gaitian, whose eyes were flickering, raised his hand to stop him. He asked Niu Youdao, "What do you mean?"
Niu Youdao pointed at his own nose. "I'm originally from the seven countries. I might know a little more than you guys about what they're planning. Maybe I can help you … But from the looks of it, you don't seem to like me. Since that's the case, there's no need for me to seek trouble. It's not an injustice to be able to drag a group of people down with me before I die. Farewell! Come, let's continue chatting by the fire. "He turned around and called out. Without another word, he left in a flash.
Yun Ji and Wu Zhaoxing looked at each other. They didn't know what Niu Youdao was planning.
They'd bitterly searched for these people. Now that they'd finally found them, what was the meaning of this?
Although they didn't understand, they knew that Niu Youdao wasn't someone to be trifled with. There must be a reason for him to do this. They didn't say anything and chased after Niu Youdao in a flash.
"Hey …" Hong Gaitian stretched out his hand towards Niu Youdao. It was hard for him to ask him to stay.
The night sky was low. The stars seemed to be within reach. Hong Gaitian touched them several times. Hong Gaitian turned around and asked, "What does he mean by that?"
Both sides shook their heads. Duke Su said, "Three Great Kings, from what he said, he seems to know something about the people from the seven countries making things difficult for us."
Hong Gaitian pondered and nodded. "This guy is on Yan's side. Previously, I saw Yan and his people protecting him. It's entirely possible that he knows something. But how can this guy be so kind? Could there be some trap waiting for us? "
The people around didn't know how to answer.
The fire on the mountain top was no longer burning. The fire was much smaller.
This time, there was no need to hide. Niu Youdao led a few people and directly appeared beside the fire. They stepped on the ashes of the fire and stood beside the fire with their swords.
He stared at the burning fire with a deep gaze. Behind him was his own shadow swaying along with the fire. Surrounding him was endless darkness. Above his head was the endless starry sky.
Under the night sky, people might be small and lonely, but they guarded the light between heaven and earth.
Yun Ji and the others stared at him for a while. Wu Zhaoxing asked, "Aren't we going to ally with them? Is there a need for you to put on airs? "
Niu Youdao said, "It's not good for Grand Supreme to rush. Instead of begging them, it's better to let them beg us."
The three did not know how he planned to operate this matter, but they knew that he wasn't someone who didn't know how to act. Yun Ji asked, "The seven countries are really trying to kill them? Do you really know something? "
Niu Youdao, who was standing there quietly with his sword, smiled and nodded slightly.
Seeing that he really knew something, the three looked at each other and sighed in relief. If that was really the case, they didn't have to worry about those people not coming.
After a while, Wu Zhaoxing reminded them, "They're here."
They looked back and saw that Hong Gaitian and his people had indeed found their way here. But not all of them were gathered together. The people were scattered and on guard.
Hong Gaitian led a dozen men and landed beside the bonfire. He paced back and forth with his hands behind his back and said nonchalantly, "It's indeed inconvenient to travel so late at night, but it's more comfortable to have a bonfire around. Niu Youdao, you don't have any objections if I borrow your bonfire to gain some glory? "
Niu Youdao looked at the people across the fire and smiled. "No objections."
Hong Gaitian didn't let the others follow him. He walked around with his hands behind his back, indicating that he didn't have any enmity.
Finally, he stood beside Niu Youdao and asked, "Why are there only a few of you? Aren't you with Yan's group? I heard that there are many people who want to kill you. It's not safe for you to run around like this. "
Niu Youdao was honest. "I don't want to run around, but Yan's group doesn't tolerate me and chased me away."
Hong Gaitian was puzzled. "When we entered Tian Gu, I saw Yan's group protecting you like you're a treasure. Why did they abandon you?"
Niu Youdao: "It's hard to explain this in a short time. In short, an innocent man gets into trouble because of his wealth!"
"What treasure are you hiding?" Hong Gaitian looked at him in surprise. "Is it the Sky Sword Talisman?"
Niu Youdao rolled his eyes. "It's much more important than the Sky Sword Talisman!"
Hong Gaitian's eyes flashed with greed. "What is it?"
Niu Youdao: "I have the territory of Yan's South State and the people who control the situation of Yan Country! The three major factions of Yan Country want me to join them. No matter who I choose, I will offend the other two factions. So, I was chased away. "
"Oh!" Hong Gaitian suddenly understood. He was wondering what it was. So it was this.
He immediately lost interest. That thing was good, but it had nothing to do with them. They couldn't interfere, so they could only watch from afar.
He was more concerned about something else. "What did you mean when you said the seven countries want to mess with us?"
Niu Youdao: "Did I say such a thing?"
Hong Gaitian glared at him. "Are you kidding me?"
Niu Youdao: "Third Head, what are you talking about? Your business has nothing to do with me. At first, I wanted to say a few more words, but now that I think about it, I feel that if you guys fight and kill each other, the more people that die, the less of a threat to me. Later on, I might even be able to benefit from it and have a chance to leave alive. After thinking about it, I don't think I need to help you. "
Hong Gaitian's face darkened. "Niu Youdao, I'm giving you face by coming here. Don't be so shameless and make me unhappy …"
"So what?" Niu Youdao shook his hand and a Sky Sword Talisman appeared between his fingers. "There were many people who chased after me, more than a thousand. There were so many experts, but they couldn't do anything to me. Third Head, do you think I'm a coward? "
Wu Zhaoxing and the other two were speechless. Where did this thousand people come from? However, they also knew that Niu Youdao was showing his strength to prove that he was not afraid of threats.
Hong Gaitian glanced at the Sky Sword Talisman in Niu Youdao's hand and was obviously on guard. The corner of his mouth twitched, but he didn't doubt Niu Youdao's words.
Everyone knew that there were many people in this mystic realm who wanted to kill Niu Youdao. It was normal for him to be chased by a group of people. Afraid of trouble? This person was really not a coward. He dared to start a massacre in Heaven Valley. How could he be afraid of trouble?
However, this didn't mean that Hong Gaitian was easy to fool. He turned around with his hands clasped behind his back and was about to say something. Unexpectedly, Niu Youdao changed his tone. "Actually, it's not a big deal to tell you this. The reason why the seven countries want to attack you is actually very simple. I can only say that you are unlucky."
What kind of person was this? Hong Gaitian was very speechless. He swallowed the words that were about to come out of his mouth and forced himself to calm down. He swallowed his saliva and asked in a slower tone, "What do you mean?"
Niu Youdao: "The timing of the opening of Heaven Capital Mystic Realm this time is not good."
Hong Gaitian frowned. "It's normal to open it once every fifty years. Is there a problem?"
Niu Youdao: "I'm referring to the outside world. When it opened this time, it happened to be the time when many countries were at war. You should have heard about the huge impact. First, there was a problem with the list of participants. Then, itinerant cultivators like us were involved. Finally, the war was frozen. The impact was far-reaching!"
