Lu Ping looked at these old guys in front of him and said with a smile that he would invite them to go with him.
He knew very well that these people weren’t easy to control. However, if they really entered the Seven Phoenixes sect, it wouldn’t be up to them to decide.
There were many ways to deal with them, especially with Lu Ping’s continuous improvement in cultivation, these people actually couldn’t cause much of a stir in front of Lu Ping!
When these people heard Lu Ping’s words, they all looked at each other in dismay.
Then, someone raised an objection.
But no matter what they said, Lu Ping just smiled and shook his head. It was definitely impossible for him to stay on Fengming Planet.
The choice Lu Ping gave them was actually very simple. After entering the Seven Phoenixes sect, if they were honest, they could stay alive in the great calamity.
Seeing that these people couldn’t make up their minds, Lu Ping stood up and said, “Alright, let’s call it a day. Each of you should think about it carefully. Those who are willing to join our Seven Phoenixes sect can become elders. However, I have already made a promise. If you don’t join the sect, then forget it. If you want to climb out of the sect or harm the Seven Phoenixes sect’s interests after joining, don’t blame me for being merciless!”
Lu Ping’s words made these people hesitate.
Staying on Fengming Planet was actually a very dangerous thing.
However, if they followed Lu Ping, it was obvious that they were his underlings.
They were unwilling to accept this.
Lu Ping didn’t really intend to recruit a few people. Seeing that they were hesitating, he directly left.
Seeing that Lu Ping had left, everyone didn’t know what to say.
Everyone had their own thoughts, but it was definitely impossible to keep the Seven Phoenixes sect.
On the other side, Bull Demon King was facing the Elephant-Riding Arhat.
He looked at the Elephant-Riding Arhat and said in a deep voice, “These few days, I let my incarnation enter the Seven Phoenixes sect and obtained a lot of news! The Seven Phoenixes sect has something to do with the saints!”
He had prepared in advance. If he wanted to lose, he had to have a reason.
When he heard this, the Elephant-Riding Arhat narrowed his eyes and said softly, “Then Venerable Divine Bull, what do you mean?”
He thought that Bull Demon King was going to give up!
No matter what Bull Demon King said, he would not give up. If Bull Demon King insisted on leaving, then he would definitely go back and complain to Shao Deng.
Bull Demon King obviously knew what he was thinking and said seriously, “What I mean is that you must hide well when I go this time. If the opponent is really powerful, you must quickly escape from here!”
Hearing this, the Elephant-Riding Arhat’s expression became a little better.
At this time, he thought about what Bull Demon King said just now. He frowned and asked, “Saint? Which saint is involved? How do you know?”
Bull Demon King smiled bitterly and said, “I saw a person in the Seven Phoenixes sect.”
“Who?”
“The saint from the Heaven sect!”
When he heard this, the Elephant-Riding Arhat’s expression changed drastically!
“Is that true?”
“It’s absolutely true!”
The two of them looked at each other. Bull Demon King tried his best to show his sincerity, while the Elephant-Riding Arhat wanted to see if he was lying.
After a moment, the Elephant-Riding Arhat asked suspiciously, “Since there’s a saint here, do you still dare make a move?”
Bull Demon King smiled and said, “I said there’s a saint here. Do you agree to leave now?”
Nonsense, he would definitely not agree.
However, the Elephant-Riding Arhat had no way to say these words and could only remain silent.
Bull Demon King said again, “Although the saint is strong, the Dao ancestor’s voice transmission has already been set. The saint cannot make a move. Since that’s the case, it doesn’t matter if the saint is here or not. What does it have to do with us? However, I suspect that the saint might give the Seven Phoenixes sect’s cultivators some powerful magic treasures. If that’s the case, I’m afraid we won’t be able to accomplish anything this time!”
“If that’s the case, it’s not a crime of war, nor is it Venerable Divine Bull’s fault. I’ll definitely explain it to the ancient Buddha Shao Deng when I get back!” The Elephant-Riding Arhat said seriously.
He understood what Bull Demon King meant.
He also understood why Bull Demon King said these words to him.
However, he wasn’t an unreasonable person. If the other party really had the support of a saint behind them, then it wouldn’t be easy for Bull Demon King to even dare make a move, much less win the battle.
He asked himself, if it was him, he would not have the courage to make a move when he saw a saint.
Bull Demon King king heaved a sigh of relief when he heard what he said.
What he was afraid of was that after he escaped, that the Elephant-Riding Arhat would go back and give him a hard time in front of Shao Deng. If that was the case, it would be very uncomfortable.
The Elephant-Riding Arhat thought for a while and said in a deep voice, “We still have to report this matter first. There must be a reason for the Patriarch of the Heaven sect to appear here! I think we should wait for the sect’s instructions before making a decision.”
At this time, the Elephant-Riding Arhat was somewhat hesitant.
However, Bull Demon King was very clear that Shao Deng was clearly using him as cannon fodder. Even if he sent back the news, would Shao Deng believe it?
The final outcome would most likely still be him being used as cannon fodder to scout the way.
Bull Demon King sighed faintly and said, “It’s too late. The Seven Phoenixes sect is about to move. Although I don’t know what methods they are using, once they move, it might not be easy to find them!”
Riding Elephant-Riding Arhat said angrily, “Then why didn’t you tell me about the saint earlier?”
Bull Demon King said with a bitter smile, “I just learned about it. These few days, my incarnation didn’t dare act recklessly in the Seven Phoenixes sect. In the end, when I saw that person by chance, I immediately let my incarnation retreat. The Seven Phoenixes sect is probably already prepared to face the enemy! However, the arrow is already on the bow, so I have no choice but to shoot. I can’t just watch them leave.”
