Otherwise, how could this old man dare to make fun of Hou Sheng's ancestors? Even King Jing of Qi did not dare to speak like this.
Even if that person was in the mood to play, he wouldn't talk to Hou Sheng like that, let alone this old immortal who appeared out of nowhere.
"How dare you speak to me like that, you old fool!"
Since it has been confirmed that King Jing of Qi has passed away, this is no longer a joke, so there is no need to waste any more time.
Although the royal palace was an important place and officials were not allowed to carry weapons, who was Hou Sheng? He was the uncle of King Jing of Qi, and they were family.
This ban is like a cloud to him.
"If you can't explain why you're here, old man, don't blame me for poking a few holes in you!"
Hou Sheng held the sword in his hand and looked at the old man, his excitement growing.
He didn't even think about whether he could be defeated or not. His heart was almost filled with ambition.
Now Hou Sheng just wants to capture the old man as soon as possible and then search. If he cannot find King Jing of Qi, then... then the State of Qi will have to change its name in the future.
"How dare you speak to our ancestors like that, you little brat!" The old man laughed in anger, throwing the jade slip in his hand into the air. "If you haven't learned etiquette and music well, then I will teach you!"
Suddenly, a strong wind blew and a huge rock knocked the sword out of Hou Sheng's hand.
Another gust of strong wind blew up and instantly lifted Hou Sheng up a full ten feet off the ground.
The chill brought by the strong wind had made Hou Sheng somewhat sober. The severe pain from the stone hitting him just now made Hou Sheng recognize himself and the old man clearly.
Yes, how could a person who could strip King Jing of Qi to nothing but bones in such a short time be an ordinary person?
"Disrespectful, slap in the face!"
The old man just gave an order, and the strong wind from the sky, accompanied by dust, hit Hou Sheng's face, directly pulling out one of his teeth.
I just said "slap", but the strong wind was like a human, really slapping me in the face viciously.
I don't know how many times he whipped Hou Sheng, but he saw his face swollen. Then he heard the old man's order: "Throw him down."
The strong wind no longer persecuted Hou Sheng's face, but just as if it let go, it knocked Hou Sheng to the ground with a "bang".
After this, Hou Sheng no longer had the capital to be rebellious. Naturally, he quickly got up, knelt on the ground, and kowtowed several times, completely ignoring the severe pain in his body.
Compared to severe pain, life is more important.
"I...I have been blind and ignorant, and have offended our ancestors. I beg you to show mercy and spare my life."
After Hou Sheng finished speaking hesitantly, he kowtowed on the ground again, fearing that the old man in front of him would smash him to death if he was not satisfied.
The old man sneered, but didn't blame him much. He just sat in the air, raised his eyes and asked, "Are you the current Prime Minister of Qi?"
"I was chosen as the Prime Minister just because I took advantage of the situation..." Hou Sheng thought that the old man was going to confess his guilt, so he kowtowed again, fearing that he would make him unhappy.
"Hmph! What a waste!" The old man sneered again, "So you're useless now? You treacherous villain, there's no point in living anymore."
After saying that, he was about to roll up Hou Sheng again and throw him to death.
This almost frightened Hou Sheng to death. He didn't even bother to kowtow and quickly said, "It's useful! I'm useful!"
Hou Sheng breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the wind had died down a bit. The eyes of the head below were about to pop out.
"The entire Qi State is run by villains, and there's no one in the country who doesn't curry favor with them. If our ancestors wish to return and become king, I will certainly make it happen for them."
"Ha!" The old man sneered, "How ridiculous! I want to take back what belongs to me. Who dares to say that?"
"Yes, yes, I am stupid and I deserve to die. I forgot that this State of Qi was originally our ancestor."
Hou Sheng was almost frightened to death by the old man's sneer, but fortunately there was no wind, which prevented Hou Sheng from dying on the spot.
"He is quite smart. If he wants to survive, he can do so." The old man looked at Hou Sheng with some interest, and then he really looked at him.
Just this one glance seemed to reveal everything about Hou Sheng.
“Although I dislike the nature of treacherous people, I also know that people like you are the most vicious and can be suppressed.
If you want to stay alive, spread the news of Lü Shang's return throughout the State of Qi, saying that I have returned to take back my position."
Hou Sheng agreed without thinking, but he felt something was wrong as soon as he agreed.
Yeosang? Yeosang?!
Hou Sheng looked at the old man in horror, at the guy who called himself Lu Shang.
He originally thought that it was just the spirit of King Jing of Qi's ancestors who appeared and killed him to take control of the world because they saw King Jing of Qi was so absurd.
Who would have thought that this person was alive, the current enemy of the Qi royal family was alive.
"I know, I know." Hou Sheng kowtowed again, fearing that he would offend the person in front of him.
"Go away." Lu Shang didn't care whether this person recognized him or not. For him, he didn't care about other people's opinions at all.
Just like when he assisted King Wen and King Wu of Zhou, how did people in the world view him?
Was it respect or fear? Lu Shang didn't know, nor did he want to know.
However, he came down to the world for a purpose: one was to regain power, and the other was to resist the Qin State.
Just wait, I, Jiang Ziya, am back!
