When Xiao Yu heard their conversation, cold sweat ran down his forehead and even his arms were trembling uncontrollably.

The Sovereign King of Southern Barbarian, the thirty-six mounts of Southern Barbarian, and the Second Elder of the Li Family. She could not help but look at Lao Kong who was in front of her and ask softly, ”Are you really a saint?”

Lao Kong curled his lips, spread his hands but did not say a word.

However, at this moment, Xiao Yu's heart was already filled with shock, the Southern Barbarian had always advocated the use of force, and strength was the only thing that mattered.

As long as you have the strength, not only will the entire family not be wanted, they will even be promoted to the next rank.

But just in this kind of environment, not only did the Southern Barbarian Empire not decline, it became even more powerful.

Furthermore, the Sovereign King of Southern Barbarian had a secret army under his command, so no one knew what they looked like or what their cultivation level was.

Those who had seen them were all dead, and there were even rumors that they had died wherever they had gone. And this terrifying secret army was called: Southern Barbarian Thirty-six Cavalry.

And he had finally met this terrifying army. He hadn't thought that they only had thirty-six soldiers, and these people were all elites chosen by the Eastern Zhou Dynasty. However, he himself had exhausted more than half of his troops, and had even sacrificed three experts in Mahayana Stage in order to barely kill one of them.

If not for the fact that they were worried about Lao Kong's identity, they would have died a long time ago.

When Lao Kong saw Xiao Yu's stupefied and terrified look, he could not help but sigh and go forward to pat her shoulders, ”Didn't I say it before, with me here, you won't die.”

After hearing what Lao Kong said, Xiao Yu regained some of his spirit and took out his sword from his waist. His face was filled with determination.

He had to complete the quest even if he died!

Lao Kong looked at her speechless. What was this, why did she suddenly change from a helpless sheep to a vulture that looked like she was about to die?

”How can they survive?” Lao Kong turned his head and ignored the lady in red behind him, and asked Li Heng.

Li Heng shook his head, ”The orders I received were only orders to take you away. As for the others, they weren't included in the orders I received, so their fate doesn't count with my words.”

”Then who has the final say?”

”The rules of Southern Barbarian are decisive.”

”The law of survival of the fittest?”

”No, these are the inevitable rules of this world.”

The two of them did not speak any further. An inexplicable sense of oppression rippled through this wasteland.

”Your king must have told you something else.”

”It's best if he's brought back. If he can't, then he doesn't have to stay in the mortal realm.”

Li Heng's tone was indifferent, but to Xiao Yu's ears, it trembled.

But Lao Kong still maintained his calm face, ”So that means, there's nothing left to talk about?”

Li Heng was silent for a moment, but still shook his head, ”Although I don't know why you want to protect them, but as a sovereign, I must obey the decree, so I am very sorry.”

Lao Kong waved his hand, ”I am only doing my duty, I did not expect that this would be the first time I, Lao Kong, will receive such a great gift, I truly have the honor of being present.”

The group of people surrounding Lao Kong gradually spread out, and acted as if they were going to attack.

Li Heng also took out a flute from his bosom, and looking at Lao Kong he said: ”Really, stop thinking about it?”

Lao Kong laughed: ”This is the cause and effect, which one to choose, is fate.”
