Mythology Starts with Childish Skills

The reason why Meng Zhao asked this question was just out of a cautious thought and style.

If Zhao Ruling really regarded the Beitang royal family as his master and protected them with all his strength without any reservation, then the assassination of the two emperors would never happen.

Before that, he saved Zhao Ruling and helped him recover from the injury of his soul. Zhao Ruling's attitude towards him was too good, and he was too indifferent to the Beitang royal family.

Although Meng Zhao was very close on the surface, in fact, he still had some reservations in his heart. He would never really think that he had any kingly aura and could easily force an old guy who had lived in the Beitang royal family for nearly a hundred years to come to his side.

Moreover, this cautious, preventive, and vigilant mind is by no means easy to dispel. Even if he got this answer from Longshu Monk, which confirmed his guess, Meng Zhao still couldn't maintain a certain trust in Zhao Ruling. The superficial trust and secret vigilance were already the greatest.

"I have another question, or the last one, Master Longshu, why are you so anxious to select a successor and pass on the Peacock King Sutra?"

This is also an important reason why Meng Zhao decided to come to Xiaohanshan Temple. As the saying goes, there is no smoke without fire. Since Longshu monk behaved so strangely, there must be an internal reason, and he had no reason to ignore it.

"This involves my recent practice. Whether it is the kid of the Feiyu clan that you incarnated or the kid of the Tianlang clan that turned into ashes, they are all containers I chose. It's a pity that they were destroyed by you."

Speaking of this, Longshu monk really wanted to ignore it and try the quality of the person in front of him. If it is possible to kill him, he will show no mercy.

But after weighing the pros and cons, he still gave up this idea.

The reason is also very simple and realistic. Meng Zhao's strength is tyrannical, and his martial arts realm is extremely high, even above him. In this way, he will naturally not rashly go against such a powerful person because of a little setback.

The celestial beings are all people who have practiced martial arts to the limit of a stage and are about to reach the last level of practice in this world. All of them are great supernatural powers.

For them, a little dispute, conspiracy, and even conflict of interest are actually nothing.

Their only pursuit, or more broadly speaking, the greatest pursuit, is gods and demons, the supreme, and the ultimate transcendence.

Of course, there are also those who worry about the country and the people, and those who carry the rise and fall of the nation on their shoulders.

But, there are very few such people.

Meng Zhao certainly brought great trouble to Longshu Monk, making his years of planning come to nothing.

But, it was only a little bit of damage. Although Longshu Monk did not have the Qingdeng Ming Coffin, he could use other methods to continue to create a peacock true body as the residence of the Peacock God and achieve his own Peacock Great Ming King Guardian.

His loss is completely controllable and can be made up. Even if Xiaohanshan Temple is gone, he can build another Xiaomingwang Temple. It is not a problem at all. He has such confidence and strength.

However, if he rashly went to war with Meng Zhao, the result of the war would be something he could not bear.

As mentioned before, Longshu Seng was not sure that he could kill Meng Zhao. On the contrary, there was a certain possibility that he would be killed in return.

If he died, wouldn't everything be in vain?

Such a result was something he never wanted to see.

Naturally, as long as Meng Zhao did not bully others too much, Longshu Seng would try his best to avoid a war.

Give him time. If Longshu Seng cultivates into the Peacock King Dharma Protector, then it will not be too late to make up for it and find trouble with Meng Zhao.

This is not shrinking, but just an attitude towards dealing with things.

I am not afraid of fighting, nor am I afraid of death, but I will never start a war casually, let alone fight to the death.

Meng Zhao did not continue to ask questions after hearing what Longshu Seng said. If he continued to ask, the possibility of a war would be very high.

Similar to Longshu Seng's idea, Meng Zhao was not willing to fight Longshu Seng directly and go to the death.

In fact, he really wanted to do this, and he was certain that he might not be able to escape unscathed, but it was still worthwhile to kill such a powerful celestial being at the cost of minor injuries.

However, Meng Zhao could not guarantee what the attitude of the hundreds of tribes in the polar ice field would be if he made too much noise after killing Long Shu Seng.

Would there be a top-level strongman like Long Bo's Tianzang who would take action to keep him?

This was his concern.

In fact, his initial idea was to sneak attack Long Shu Seng while he was unprepared, so that he could get rid of him at the lowest cost and with the least momentum.

Now Long Shu Seng had discovered his abnormal identity, and under vigilance, it was difficult for him to take action.

As for why Long Shu Seng was so afraid of him, it was not without reason.

The two of them had never fought at all. On the contrary, Meng Zhao had really fought with Long Shu Seng by using the Heavenly Wolf Mummy.

Long Shu Seng himself knew it well.

Although the final result was that Longshu Monk burned the Heavenly Wolf Corpse to ashes with a flip of his hand, the Sun Fire Dragon was extremely domineering.

But in reality, it was Meng Zhao who used a little bit of his soul power to activate the Heavenly Wolf Corpse, first tearing its peacock image into pieces, and then colliding with it several times before it was destroyed.

Longshu Monk really used his skills, while Meng Zhao, to put it bluntly, was not even a trial run.

This is also why Longshu Monk was afraid of Meng Zhao. Did he really think that he was a weakling who could not even figure out the opponent's strengths and weaknesses, and believed in the opponent's unfathomable depth?

The reason why we can negotiate is that we fought for it.

"Master Longshu, I have one last request. I wonder if you can agree to it?"

Longshu monk nodded,

"Please tell me. If I can do it, I will do it. If I can't do it, don't bother me. At most, we have fought. Although you are powerful, I am not without the power to fight back."

This is a kind of weakness in response to stress. Meng Zhao waved his hand,

"Not really. You are a powerful celestial being after all. Maybe you have some plans, but this is the business of the hundred races and has nothing to do with me.

I care more about the connection between you and the Beitang royal family in Shenzhou Pass.

How about this, Master Longshu can hand over the person who was sent to you by Beitang Sheng last time to me, or tell me his identity and whereabouts, so that I can rest assured.

Otherwise, Master Longshu, you will die here today."

It is a different kind of surrender.

Longshu monk heard this and was furious. A peacock god image jumped out from his head, a hundred feet high, with a momentum of soaring into the sky.

"You are so arrogant. If you are acting like this, let's fight!"

This is really unbearable. You don't take me seriously.

However, Meng Zhao just smiled lightly and pointed in a direction. The surging momentum of Longshu Monk suddenly shrank like a punctured ball.
