Chapter 418: Battle of Tianwang Mountain
It was a cloudy day.
In the streets of Jixiangfu, countless people in black emerged like a tide. On the other side, a wave of people in white blocked the street. The two waves finally collided in the middle of the fork in the road, forming a clear boundary.
Another group of men in red tights were already waiting here.
After a while, a middle-aged man with a defiant look came out from among the black-clad men. His left foot seemed a little out of place, but the arrogance on his face made people ignore his physical defects. The corners of his mouth twitched occasionally, revealing a sense of disdain.
This person is none other than Mr. Zhao Si, who is very influential in Jixiang Mansion.
"Tell Lao Liu to come out and see me." He said in a deep voice.
"Old...Old Four, you haven't even entered the pool yet, why are you in such a hurry to see me?"
Before he finished speaking, there was a bright light, a boiled egg, or a rubber ball... In short, a dazzling head walked out from the crowd of people in white.
This person is none other than Bald Liu, the overlord of East City.
"Do you... know why A Kun called us here this time?" asked Mr. Zhao Si with a serious look.
"Aren't we discussing how to divide the South City?" Bald Liu wondered.
"The corners of my mouth have been twitching since last night." Mr. Zhao Si said, twitching his cheeks twice, "I feel that things are not that simple."
"Come on... forget it. Your mouth has been twitching since you were born. Can it be taken as an omen?" The bald man pointed out mercilessly.
Mr. Zhao Si glared at him, looking a little angry, but unable to refute. He paused, and finally said, "Then go in and take a look. If he dares to have any ulterior motives, brothers..."
"Kill!" the men in black behind him roared in unison.
"Who are you trying to scare?" The bald man waved his hands and said to the people behind him, "If I don't come out in half an hour, rush in."
"Yes!" the men in white shouted in unison.
As he spoke, Mr. Zhao Si and Bald Liu walked into the magnificent building in front of them. There were three big characters on the plaque of the building.
"Blue and White Pond".
This is where the three of them have always had secret meetings.
After entering, the owner of Qinghua Pool was standing in the middle with a group of maids. He greeted them familiarly, "The two bosses are here. Uncle Kun is already waiting in Tianzi Pool. He only brought a young man with him."
"Well, okay." Mr. Zhao Si and the bald man nodded and walked in.
When they arrived at the room where the Tianzihao was, they had already taken off all their clothes, leaving only a towel wrapped around their body.
In the smoke, both of them saw Uncle Kun’s shining forehead at the edge of the pool.
Uncle Kun also saw the two people coming because of his dazzling bald head.
On the contrary, Li Chu appears to be vague and inconspicuous here.
"Haha, my two friends, you are late." Uncle Kun stood up quickly to greet them when he saw them arriving.
"Hiss...yes."
"Ha...I've been wanting to come here for a long time."
Mr. Zhao Si and Bald Liu hissed and went down into the pool, and it took them a long time to move over.
The bald man smiled and said, "It's been a long time since the three of us have been together."
"When the three of us get together, there's probably nothing good going on." Fourth Master Zhao said without reservation.
"Haha, the fourth brother is still so honest." Uncle Kun laughed.
"Eh?" Although Bald Liu had small eyes, he had a sharp gaze. He glanced at Li Chu and asked, "Did you change your son?"
"Don't talk nonsense." Uncle Kun waved his hands nervously, "It's okay for this guy to say he's my dad."
"Um?"
The other two frowned, vaguely feeling that there was something strange about these words.
"My name is Wang Qi." Li Chu came forward and said, "Actually, today, I wanted to meet you two."
"Akun, what do you mean?"
Realizing that something was wrong, the bald man and Mr. Zhao Si stood up at the same time, their eyes full of threats. As long as the opponent showed a hint of murderous intent, they would burst out their cultivation and start fighting. Even if they could not kill the enemy in one blow, they could still bring in the men outside the door.
"I advise you two to sit down and find a more comfortable posture." Li Chu said calmly.
"This...you have no right to speak here!" Bald Liu didn't finish his words and suddenly his body stiffened.
At the same time, Mr. Zhao Si's body also remained still.
"I'm sorry, both of you. In order to prevent you from doing anything extreme, I have no choice but to talk to you in this way temporarily. I hope you don't mind. If you do mind, please bring it up."
There was silence.
"Okay, since no one has brought it up, I will untie your talking points first."
Having said that, Li Chu allowed the two to speak.
"Who are you?" Mr. Zhao Si asked angrily as soon as he opened his mouth.
"My name is Wang Qi, and I'm the leader of the Truman Clan. Also...Uncle Kun is also a member of the Truman Clan now." Li Chu said.
"Trumen... isn't he the new small force that emerged in South City?" The two looked at Uncle Kun again.
"That's right, I'm a new member of the Truman Clan, I'm laying my cards on the table." Uncle Kun spread his hands and said, "In the decisive battle between me and the Seventh Young Master yesterday, I actually lost. The Seventh Young Master single-handedly killed the Precious Elephant War Spirit of the Ivory Mountain in seconds, and scared away a sword cultivator of the Zhan Sui Realm from the Great Snow Mountain. His cultivation is hard to estimate. I followed the Seventh Young Master willingly."
Looking at his servile look, probably no one could sense that he was actually not willing at all at that time.
But now, facing Mr. Zhao Si and Bald Liu, he suddenly found a sense of pleasure of polar reversal and immediately accepted this new setting.
This feeling is probably best understood by Brother Crow two days ago.
"So you helped this kid call us here today just to plot against us?" Mr. Zhao glared at him.
"Actually, it's not called calculation. I just want to persuade you to join Truman together." Uncle Kun said with a smile.
"You're dreaming?" Fourth Master Zhao said, "Today, you two will try to touch me? No, why are you raising your hands? Put them down... I was just kidding."
Following his threat, Li Chu suddenly raised his right hand and pointed it toward the sky, looking as if he was going to perform some magical power.
It means just give it a try.
"Hmm?" Li Chu put down his hands again after hearing that. He said, "Actually, I didn't mean to offend you two. It's just that for some reasons, I have to unify the gang forces in Jixiang Mansion. The conflict with you two is also forced by the situation."
"So I am here to sincerely invite you two to lead your forces to join my Truman. I can guarantee that your original forces and territories will remain unchanged, and I can also give you South City to divide equally."
"What...what invitation...isn't it just for us to be your dogs?" Bald Liu said, and turned his small eyes to Uncle Kun, saying, "Same as him."
Uncle Kun looked very proud, "Well, today I want to show you what's wrong with being a dog!"
“…”
Once a person makes up his mind to be shameless, there is really nothing others can do to him.
"If you two disagree, you can actually choose to leave Jixiang Mansion. I will not stop you. But... if you still want to be my enemy after you go out, then I may not hold back." Li Chu said again.
In short, it’s just one sentence.
Don’t say I didn’t warn you.
As if sensing that the other party had no killing intention and his attitude was relatively gentle, Bald Liu rolled his eyes and said in a persuasive tone: "Young man, your magical powers are indeed quite powerful, but you have to know that the gang forces in Jixiang Mansion are not that simple."
"Simply put, the water here is too deep, you can't control it..."
"That's right." Mr. Zhao Si grinned and said, "You probably don't know who is behind us..."
"I know." Li Chu said.
"..." The two of them paused for a moment.
The mood suddenly got messed up.
I know, but I'm not afraid.
Is this what you mean?
Bald Liu sneered: "Young man, don't be too impetuous."
"You can tell me about it." Li Chu raised his hand.
Fourth Master Zhao looked at them for a long while before saying, "It's okay to tell you. I came from Tianwang Mountain. The north is full of dragons and tigers, and all forces are gathering here. Tianwang Mountain cannot be without its own outpost here. If you insist on encroaching on my power, it will undoubtedly be a declaration of war against Tianwang Mountain. This... can you afford it?"
Tianwang Mountain, one of the Twelve Immortal Gates, is also located in the north. It is considered the edge of the north and not far from here. It is reasonable to bury a chess piece here.
And the bald Liu Ye said: "I am not afraid to tell you the truth. I... I was born in Chaotianque. In fact, I was sent here by the court to monitor the situation in the city. King Han's fiefdom is full of our secret agents. I am just the one with the greatest power."
"If you remove me, it will only be regarded as your disrespect to Chaotianque and the entire imperial court..."
"Oh." Li Chu nodded when he heard that.
What does "oh" mean? Are you not afraid after hearing it? After the two bosses finished talking about their origins, Li Chu's reaction made them quite dissatisfied.
There is even a hint of worry.
This guy seems...really not afraid? To be honest, Li Chu is not very fond of these two forces.
After all, these two were both one of the twelve immortal sects, and they were both famous and upright. If they knew that I was doing this to attract the Golden Bodhisattva, they would not be particularly resistant. Especially Chaotianque, what I did should have been their responsibility.
However, this matter cannot be told to those below. If the top leaders from Chaotianque and Tianwangshan really come, then I can still discuss it with them.
After that, Li Chu simply spread his hands and said, "In that case, why not ask the forces behind you to send someone to negotiate with me... or fight."
He said this very frankly.
But for some reason, Bald Liu and Mr. Zhao Si both felt a sense of humiliation.
It's like saying...
Go back and ask your parents to come.
The two were shocked and angry at being humiliated, and then they shouted angrily, "Alright!"
…
After this secret meeting, the three bosses all left safely. However, Bald Liu and Mr. Zhao Si were both solemn, only Uncle Kun was smug. For a while, the speculation about Uncle Kun in the city's underworld became even more mysterious.
The next morning, a man in a white robe from Chaotianque really came to the door.
Li Chu looked at the familiar square-faced man in the white robe and called out, "Duan Baipao?"
"It's me." The man was a little confused, "Have you seen me?"
"Aren't you Duan Zhang or Duan Baipao from Hangzhou Prefecture? Haven't you seen me?" Li Chu was also a little puzzled. Even if Duan Zhang didn't recognize him, he had seen Wang Longqi.
"Oh, you may have recognized the wrong person. Duan Zhang is my brother. I am Duan Ju, the white-robed commander of Chaotianque Jixiang Mansion." The man bowed.
"Oh..." Li Chu then realized that although this person looked very similar to Duan Zhang, his voice and speaking habits were actually very different.
I have a connection with these brothers in this family.
"Do you know my brother?" Duan Ju asked again.
"More than one. I am good friends with the two white-robed commanders Duan Zhang and Duan Geng. I have also had a lot of dealings with senior Duan Lulong." Li Chu said.
"Oh, I originally wanted to test your background today, but I guess the flood has washed away the Dragon King Temple, and you don't recognize your own people?" Duan Ju laughed.
However, judging from the suspicious look in his eyes, his vigilance against Li Chu had not decreased.
"My real name is Li Chu. If Duan Baipao doesn't believe me, he can go ask Duan Baipao in Hangzhou Prefecture and Duan Baipao in Shenluo City." Li Chu said.
"Are you Li Chu? Little Taoist Priest Li?" Duan Ju's expression suddenly became a little excited. "The Little Taoist Priest Li who killed the evil spirits in Hangzhou and the Dharma King outside Shenluo City?"
"Yes, it's me." Li Chu nodded.
"wrong……"
Duan Ju suddenly leaned back and looked at Li Chu with unfriendly eyes. "Although my two brothers praised the magical powers of Taoist Xiao Li at the New Year's banquet, they also mentioned that Taoist Xiao Li not only has a high level of cultivation, but also has an unparalleled appearance, which has attracted the curiosity of the women in the family. But when I see your dignity, I am polite to say... quite vulgar."
After listening to this, Li Chu nodded and said, "I don't deny this."
That's very polite indeed.
"Huh?"
His calm look made Duan Ju feel a little strange.
"Because I am currently in a state of possession by my soul, in the body of a good friend of mine. The purpose of my doing this is actually to plan with others to attract the Golden Bodhisattva..."
After confirming Duan Ju's identity, he simply revealed the whole plan. If he had a decisive battle with the Golden Bodhisattva at that time, it would be easier with Chao Tianque's help.
While the two were talking, they suddenly heard a hurried knock on the door.
Li Chu went out to open the door, and saw Uncle Kun personally running over to see him off and said, "Seventh Young Master, things are not going well."
"Huh? What's wrong?" Li Chu asked.
"The fourth brother has invited a little king from Tianwang Mountain to come here in person to challenge you!" Uncle Kun said hurriedly.
Those who are crowned as Little Heavenly Kings on Tianwang Mountain are all people close to the pinnacle of martial arts, and they are terrifying beings who may compete for the title of Great Heavenly King in the future.
Although Uncle Kun was very confident in Li Chu's cultivation, the realms of both of them were beyond his reach. Uncle Kun was not sure whether he could defeat the Little King.
As he was speaking, another letter was delivered.
Li Chu unfolded it and found that it was a letter of war with sixteen large characters written on it.
"On the night of the waning moon, on the top of Ivory Mountain. A sword came from the west, a fairy from the sky!"
