This also made Ying Chu and Xiao Li a little confused. Could it be that the person in front of them was buying time for the prince?
Thinking of this, the two of them slowly walked towards the Taoist who was looking for dragons, one on the left and one on the right, ready to rush over at any time.
"But you rescued my enemy, and you didn't use ordinary moves. If you were just an ordinary Taoist, I'm afraid that the Taoist sect wouldn't even take the emperor seriously."
Ying Chu sneered. If this was considered an ordinary Taoist priest, then there would be few people in the world who could be considered "ordinary".
At this moment, the twenty-fourth prince has already walked into the portal, and no one knows where the opening of the portal is.
If we make some pessimistic guesses, the twenty-fourth prince may have already arrived in the imperial capital.
"I am just repaying the favor of an old friend. Even if City Lord Ying wants to kill me or chop me up, I have no right to interfere."
Taoist Xunlong smiled, but it was hard to say how much of what he said was true.
Naturally, Ying Chu did not easily believe what Xunlong Taoist said. If he could interfere once, he could interfere a second time. If he let him go now, he would bring himself endless troubles!
He signaled Xiaoli with his eyes to step back a few steps, and then he rushed forward fiercely, and the dark blue magic blade slashed straight at Xunlong Taoist.
Although the speed was very fast, it was obviously not enough to stop Taoist Xunlong, so Ying Chu simply activated some kind of ability.
He immediately raised his left arm, and the emerald green magic stones seemed to be connected in series, and the dark light was instantly transmitted to the five fingers of his left hand.
With a handshake in the air, the air beside Taoist Xunlong was compressed, and huge pressure came towards him.
If he hadn't retreated immediately before, he would no longer have such an opportunity!
Even more importantly, under the interference of the magic stone's power, ordinary talisman paper can no longer be used.
However......
"As expected of the Emperor's bloodline, can such combat instincts and talents be inherited?"
Taoist Xunlong put down the whisk in his hand, looked at Ying Chu who was already close at hand, and raised his hand calmly.
The next moment, the deep blue magic blade was only an inch away from Xunlong Taoist's heart.
The reason was simple. The fierce demonic blade had been grasped by Taoist Xunlong in one hand and could no longer move at all.
Taoist Xunlong, who looks like a weak Taoist priest, is actually able to lock the blade with just one hand?
Ying Chu loosened his hand instantly, and the dark green gem emitted a strong light again, smashing directly into the face of Taoist Xunlong.
Chapter 73 Guidance
"Well, then let you throw a punch."
Taoist Xunlong actually let go of his hand, and the dark blue magic blade fell to the ground. He didn't even make any defensive gesture, and let Ying Chu's punch hit him directly on the side of the face.
boom! ! !
This punch didn't feel like a hit on someone's face at all. The huge bang was like two strong men fighting each other. Even Xiaoli, who was not far away, covered his ears unconsciously.
The explosion at such a close distance caused Ying Chu, who was standing opposite him, to have his ears bleeding, and the strong sense of imbalance almost made him unable to keep his body steady.
But the next moment, Taoist Xunlong stretched out his hand and even helped Ying Chu, who was about to fall.
Such an action is simply an insult to others.
But before Ying Chu could struggle, the slender white left hand had already grabbed Ying Chu's wrist, emitting a power that seemed to be a world apart from that of the palm.
This made it impossible for Ying Chu to even turn over, unless he had to forcibly break his wrist under such force.
But who is Ying Chu?
His other unbound arm was already ready, and dark green gems had ejected spikes that had already pierced into Ying Chu's left arm, waiting to provide him with strength.
But when he saw that there was not even a trace of wound on Taoist Xunlong's cheek, Ying Chu gave up the idea of taking action immediately.
Taoist Xunlong sighed softly, and only released his hand that was holding Ying Chu until Ying Chu stopped making any excessive movements.
"Can you calm down a bit?"
He was not in a hurry to leave through the portal, nor did he want to kill Ying Chu after clamping him down. At least his attitude was clear enough.
Although Ying Chu was eager for revenge, his mind did not become a mess.
On the contrary, he has become calmer and more mature over the years, otherwise he would not have been able to run his own power for so many years under the nose of the empire.
"Who are you exactly?"
Ying Chu took a step back, but was still ready to fight at any time.
If the fact that the opponent was able to resist the attack just now was just a coincidence, then the fact that he can now calmly control himself is the most direct manifestation of his strength.
Maybe Ying Chu didn't use his full strength, but the opponent might not have used his full strength either.
It is obviously unwise to continue fighting in this situation. Instead of fighting mindlessly, it is better to listen to what the other party is going to do first.
"People often call me the Taoist who seeks dragons, but I have never given myself this title. I am just a Taoist."
Taoist Xunlong also picked up his whisk again, as if he was quite happy to avoid fighting.
He did not forget to pat his sleeves. During the fight with Ying Chu just now, his wide sleeves were inevitably covered with dust.
Looking for dragons?
Ying Chu couldn't help but frown. It's not like he hasn't heard of this name before, but it's still a question whether Taoist Xunlong really exists.
It is just like those heroes who uphold justice in street storytelling or various rumors and anecdotes. It is hard to say how much fabrication is contained in them.
Not to mention that this "Dragon Seeker" now, could it be that he is just a powerful royal figure with a name?
"In that case, I want to ask Mr. Xunlong, why did you let that guy go?"
Ying Chu's cold question made Xunlong cough a few times, and the meaning of his words was obvious.
Since you, Taoist Xunlong, have great powers, you must know about the beastly things the twenty-fourth prince has done, right?
And after knowing the bad things this guy has done, you still want to forcefully lend a helping hand at this moment. What are you thinking, Taoist Xunlong?
Although Ying Chu didn't want to fight a meaningless battle, it didn't mean that he was afraid of this powerful enemy.
"City Lord Ying, I am sorry for this matter, but I still owe him a favor. This is the first time he has asked for help in decades, and I can't just refuse him."
Although Xunlong Taoist did not specify who "that person" was, the three people present were well aware of his identity.
The only emperor of the Eastern Empire!
It sounds unbelievable that this legendary Taoist who traveled around the world and helped the poor and the needy once owed a favor to the emperor.
Even the common people secretly regarded Xunlong Taoist as a representative, a symbol who could fight against those treacherous ministers and evil officials.
How ironic this is...
Although Ying Chu thought so in his heart, there was no expression on his face.
"Just because you owe that dog emperor a favor?"
After these words were spoken, Taoist Xunlong sighed helplessly.
He also knew that if he really wanted to reason with him, his actions were totally unreasonable. If he released such a beast back to the royal family, God knew what kind of trouble would arise in the future.
Just because I owed someone a favor, I didn't do anything related to him.
"Which people are worth saving and which are not? It turns out that Mr. Xunlong can't tell them apart?"
Xiaoli on the side sneered. She was holding the scimitar and clenched the blade tightly, as if she was impulsive and wanted to go up and give Taoist Xunlong two blows.
These words were even more harsh to hear, but Taoist Xunlong was not the unreasonable kind of person.
If he was really a heartless and ungrateful person, it would be impossible for him to leave a good reputation in the world.
Grassroots heroes may occasionally become famous, but their reputation will never last forever. Only those who are truly kind and serve the people will have their good stories spread far and wide.
He, Taoist Xunlong, was not the kind of person who would help the evil. This was also true when he removed the portal and was willing to explain to the Ying Chu siblings.
"Lord Ying, I know that I am somewhat at fault in this matter, but I cannot hand him over to you. However, I can show you a way..."
As soon as these words were spoken, the simultaneous sneers from the Ying Chu brother and sister made Taoist Xunlong blush even more, and his handsome face couldn't help but twitch. Of course, he still understood what embarrassed meant.
If the Ying Chu siblings still needed someone to point the way for them to seek revenge, they would have died at the hands of the Luo family decades ago and would not have lived to this day.
But for Xunlong Taoist, this was the best help he could offer. It was not that he didn't want to, but that he couldn't do it.
"Then tell me, what path do you want to give us? Should we go to the imperial capital and die, or should we go to the Luo family and fight against the enemy with our own strength?"
Xiaoli mocked Taoist Xunlong again. To her, letting that damn guy go was already crossing her bottom line.
If they really had the ability to challenge the emperor, they would have risen up in rebellion against that damn emperor long ago. Why would they have to wait until today to torture the prince bit by bit?
"As long as you find that person, you can even rebel against the emperor."
Taoist Xunlong nodded, but did not deny Xiaoli's statement.
This made both people present stunned for a moment. What kind of person could be so capable of rebelling against the emperor?
The fact that the entire Eastern Empire was able to last for a thousand years without decline and even became increasingly powerful proves that the emperor was no ordinary person.
Who can have such ability?
"It was the man who solved your circular puzzle in the city that day, the man who came from the west."
After Taoist Xunlong said this, Ying Chu's face also looked a little ugly.
He recalled the fleeting dazzling light in the cellar that day.
Is it her? Can she overthrow that dog emperor?
"Why do you say that? How can the power of one person contend with the entire empire?"
Xiaoli was even more puzzled. What kind of person in this world could compete with the entire empire?
Even if one has the courage of an unstoppable common man, and can kill one person, ten, a hundred, a thousand, or even ten thousand people, what can he do to the emperor?
How many troops does the entire Eastern Empire have? If they were to mobilize them all, she would have nowhere to go even if she hid from heaven or earth.
"Even if you don't invite her, she is bound to cause damage to the entire Eastern Empire and remove the rotten flesh from this limb for the people."
Taoist Xunlong shook his head. There were some things that he couldn't tell others even if he saw them.
Although the future is not certain and will change due to countless uncertain factors until the moment before it happens, it often symbolizes the direction of the entire trend.
Just like countless declining kingdoms in history, various signs often appear before the country's demise.
In some of the images that Taoist Xunlong had seen, Ye Qing's figure caused turmoil in the entire Eastern Empire.
"...Mr. Xunlong, are you serious?"
"This is true."
"Do you dare to swear a blood oath?"
"That's natural."
Facing Ying Chu's continuous questioning, Taoist Xunlong remained calm and composed. He even stretched out his index finger and the whisk in his hand swept past.
Blood gushed out from his fingertips, and Taoist Xunlong quickly drew a talisman in the air. That was the talisman symbolizing the blood oath.
After this, even Ying Chu was speechless.
The fact that this Taoist priest Xunlong swore an oath with blood to guarantee his words proved, in a sense, that what he said was true.
The effect of the blood oath is obvious to all, and is the man in the prophecy already so powerful? Even the Dragon Seekers are not afraid to make this blood oath.
Seeing this, Ying Chu did not press on any further, but instead signaled Xiao Li to step back.
Now that the prince has been sent away, there is no need for the two to continue fighting with Taoist Xunlong.
Unless we can ensure that he is eliminated, there will be endless trouble.
"In that case, I will trust you this time, sir. I hope you can give me some pointers. How can I find her and gain her trust?"
Regarding this point, there is no need for Taoist Xunlong to swear a blood oath.
He smiled, then stretched out his hand and pointed into the distance.
"Wherever the chaos is, she will be there, and as long as she needs help, we will lend a hand and treat her sincerely."
As the words fell, the figure of the Taoist priest Xunlong gradually disappeared.
Although this simple sentence made Ying Chu and Xiao Li a little confused, they did not try to stop Taoist Xunlong.
