"Nazha, I'm relieved to see you're alright..."
Upon seeing Nazha, Tuoba Dada breathed a sigh of relief and said!
Li Zhu looked at Wang Yanzhang, hoping he would give him a reasonable explanation. He had already given orders to stay put until there was news, but now Wang Yanzhang had appeared here, which clearly violated his orders...
"Your Highness, the others are still waiting where they are. General Dada was too worried about Princess Nazha and insisted on bringing people to check on her. I couldn't stop him..."
Wang Yanzhang also felt somewhat wronged, but soldiers are duty-bound to obey orders, and regardless of the reason, he was indeed wrong this time…
"General Dada, do you know that what you're doing could kill everyone?"
Li Zhu angrily scolded him. If it weren't for the fact that the other party was Nazha's uncle, he would have really wanted to slap him to vent his anger!
"Useless Crown Prince, are you trying to teach me how to do things?"
Tuoba Dada placed his hand on the curved sword at his waist, which was already a clear provocation!
Even if Li Zhu wasn't the crown prince, he was still a man with a temper. Calling him a useless piece of trash this and that clearly showed he wasn't taken seriously, and even disregarded the prestige of the new Tang dynasty…
"That's right, I'm teaching you how to do things, so you'd better listen to me. I am the Crown Prince of the new Tang Dynasty, and the future consort of Xiliang. In every respect, I have the right to lecture you..."
Li Zhu glared at Tuoba Dada and said!
This surprised Tuoba Dada. He hadn't expected Li Zhu to be so brave. Their relationship had actually improved. Last time, when Li Zhu went to deliver soap to Nazha, it was Tuoba Dada who helped him, giving Li Zhu the opportunity to get closer to Nazha...
However, due to the first impression, and the fact that the emperor of the new Tang Dynasty also showed contempt for Li Zhu, he also looked down on Li Zhu, which is why he always called Li Zhu a useless crown prince!
"Kid, is this how the etiquette of the New Tang Dynasty teaches you to speak to your elders?"
Tuoba Dada angrily questioned him, feeling offended. After all, he was surrounded by soldiers, and if his authority was undermined, his prestige in the army would decline, which he could not tolerate!
"General, is the only thing the gods of Xiliang teach you to call others trash?"
Li Zhu retorted without backing down!
"you…"
Tuoba Dada was furious, and seeing that things were about to take an unpredictable turn, Nazha quickly stepped forward and said...
"Uncle, you were clearly in the wrong this time, and you still won't admit it..."
Upon hearing Nazha's words, Tuoba Dada trembled with anger...
She's not even married yet, and she's already siding with outsiders. What will happen if she marries into that family?
"Nazha, you should know that in Xiliang, there are only warriors who die in battle, not cowards who admit their mistakes..."
Tuoba Dada said angrily, feeling that Nazha was being unreasonable!
Naza was also helpless. It was impossible to reason with an illiterate person. These brutes only believed in the truths they had learned through practice and the truths passed down on the grasslands. Both of them proved to the grassland people that might makes right!
"Uncle, do you realize you're acting without authorization? That's wrong in itself..."
Naza also said with some annoyance!
"Nazha, I was just worried about your safety. How could you stand next to that useless prince and criticize me?"
Tuoba Dada also felt wronged. He was trying to save Nazha, but Nazha kept blaming him for doing something wrong!
"Uncle, do you know what just happened? If it weren't for His Highness the Crown Prince, you and all these Xiliang warriors behind you would have perished here..."
Naza could only recount what had just happened, hoping Tuoba Dada would realize his mistake. However, she clearly underestimated the extent of someone's stubbornness. Tuoba Dada shook off Naza's hand and coldly said...
"Nazha, do you think your uncle is so easy to fool?"
When did I lie to you?
Naza looked at him with extreme grievance and asked!
"My Xiliang cavalry is unparalleled in the world, how could anyone possibly wipe out my warriors? It's not wrong for you to protect your future husband, but you can't lie! The people of the grasslands never stoop to lying!"
Tuoba Dada said emphatically!
"General Dada, do you know that Nazha was just worried about your safety!"
"Kid, this is an internal matter for us in Xiliang. It's none of your business as an outsider..."
"Uncle, how can you be so unreasonable?"
On the surface, Nazha is helping Li Zhu, but in reality, she is protecting Tuoba Dada. This place is still within the altar area. If Li Zhu is angered, no one can predict what the consequences will be. The white bones on the ground are the best warning!
"Nazha, what kind of bewitching potion did this useless prince give you? Why are you speaking up for him like this?"
Tuoba Dada didn't understand Nazha's protectiveness towards him, firmly believing that Nazha was siding with outsiders...
"uncle…"
Just as Nazha was about to say something, Li Zhu stopped her and stood in front of Tuoba Dada, their eyes meeting...
The two men were vastly different in stature. Tuoba Dada was not only a head taller than Li Zhu, but also significantly heavier, appearing large enough to fit two Li Zhus with room to spare…
This stark contrast gave everyone the illusion that Tuoba Dada could kill Li Zhu with a single punch…
Facing such a formidable enemy, Li Zhu calmly said...
"I wonder what the outcome would be if you, as the great general of Xiliang, were defeated by a useless crown prince like me?"
"Ha ha…"
Upon hearing Li Zhu's words, Tuoba Dada burst into laughter, pointing at Li Zhu as if to say, "Your joke is really funny." The Xiliang cavalry behind him were also laughing so hard they were doubled over, completely disregarding Li Zhu...
"Do you think his joke is funny? He actually wants to beat me? Is he still half asleep?"
After Tuoba Dada finished speaking, the Xiliang cavalry laughed even more heartily. It was clear that these people truly looked down on Li Zhu. The difference in strength between the two was obvious at a glance. Tuoba Dada's fist was almost as big as Li Zhu's head. They even doubted whether Li Zhu could withstand a single finger from Tuoba Dada.
"Strength is earned through fighting, not by talking..."
Li Zhu said coldly!
Are you challenging me?
Upon hearing Li Zhu's words, Tuoba Dada stopped laughing and coldly questioned him!
"What? Is that not allowed?"
Li Zhu stared intently at the other person, his gaze filled with a strong sense of provocation!
"What did I just hear? That good-for-nothing prince actually dares to challenge me? Are you tired of living?"
"The fight hasn't even started yet, how can we easily draw conclusions about who will win or lose..."
"Useless prince, don't say I didn't give you a chance. Today I accept your challenge and I'll show you that a warrior's dignity cannot be challenged..."
