Chapter 416: Lu Ping’s Thoughts (2)

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Lu Ping could tell at a glance.

After landing, Lu Ping was somewhat disappointed. He had originally wanted to see his true form, but why was he a normal burly man?

“You must be Senior Bull!”

Lu Ping also maintained the necessary respect towards Bull Demon King king.

“Sect Master Lu, what are you talking about? We can just address each other as equals. You can just call me Bull.” Bull Demon King King was also very tactful.

!!

Lu Ping smiled and said, “Senior Bull must be joking. I call Senior Sun ‘Uncle Sun’. Aren’t you a generation lower than him? It’s not appropriate. I’ll just call you Uncle Bull!”

In fact, regardless of whether it was in terms of age or cultivation, this address was very appropriate.

At the very least, Lu Ping did not have the qualifications to call him by his name.

However, to Lu Ping’s surprise, Bull Demon King king smiled and said, “That’s not the case. He’s him, and I’m me. Let’s talk about our own matters. Just call me Bull. I’ll call you Lu. You don’t mind, right?”

After hearing this, Lu Ping immediately guessed that this old guy probably had something to ask of him.

However, since the other party insisted, he didn’t stand on ceremony and said with a smile, “Bull, then let’s go to my living room to talk!”

“Alright!”

Before Old Bull left, he gave a smug look to the Seven Phoenixes sect disciple.

Seeing the two of them leave, that disciple immediately collapsed to the ground!

“It’s over, I’ve caused trouble, I’ve caused trouble! I’ve offended a big shot!”

That’s right, no matter how blind a disciple was, he wasn’t an idiot. With Lu Ping’s current cultivation and status, there wasn’t anyone in the entirety of Fengming Planet who could make him pay respect to a junior.

This fellow must be a big shot.

He took out his phone and called Lin Yueyin.

“Elder Lin, I, I got into trouble…” he said with a sobbing voice…

On the other side, Bull Demon King and Lu Ping went to the living room.

After entering the room, someone immediately brought tea.

The two of them sat down. Lu Ping smiled and said, “Why did Senior Bull come here this time?”

He didn’t ask why Bull Demon King sneaked into the sect.

Bull Demon King pondered for a moment and said honestly, “Didn’t I say it just now? I want to join hands with you to kill the Elephant-Riding Arhat!”

Hearing this, Lu Ping asked curiously, “May I ask why you chose to leave the Western Church at this time?”

Bull Demon King felt helpless. “I still don’t dare kill you, right?”

This reason was the most true, but he was too embarrassed to say it out loud.

After hesitating for a moment, Old Bull was still an honest man after all, in a muffled voice, he said, “Shao Deng asked me to kill you. I felt that the risk was too great, so I didn’t want to do it. But if I can’t complete this mission, then he will definitely kill me later. So, this is the situation now. I’m stuck between a rock and a hard place!”

When Lu Ping heard this, he understood.

However, according to common sense, Bull Demon King should not fear him. Why would he say that he wanted to cooperate with him?

“Senior Bull, I am not your match.”Lu Ping laughed.

However, he suddenly felt some regret in his heart. He had been a little rash. If Bull Demon King suddenly attacked him, wouldn’t he be finished?

Could he block Bull Demon King’s attack?

Just as he was pondering, Huang Xiaoqi pushed open the door and entered.

She smiled and said, “There’s a guest. Why didn’t you tell me?”

Seeing that Huang Xiaoqi had come, Lu Ping felt much more at ease.

With Huang Xiaoqi’s cultivation and the Nine Dragons Pendant, although he didn’t know Bull Demon King’s strength, he thought that he should be able to block any attack for a while.

Now that everyone was like this, it was fine if it was a familiar opponent.

Who knew how strong a stranger was?

That was why Bull Demon King wasn’t willing to attack. After all, once he attacked, what if his opponent was very strong and didn’t die here? Wouldn’t that be a joke?

Lu Ping stood up and introduced, “This is my wife, Huang Xiaoqi!”

Bull Demon King was secretly shocked when he saw Huang Xiaoqi!

She had the cultivation base of a Diamond Immortal.

In fact, the gap between a quasi-saint and a Diamond Immortal wasn’t that big. They could completely wipe out the gap with divine abilities and magic treasures.

Unlike saints, there was a qualitative difference.

In other words, as long as Huang Xiaoqi had a very powerful magic treasure, it was enough to threaten him.

The three of them sat down again. Bull Demon King looked at Lu Ping and said with a smile, “Lu, how do you think we should kill the Elephant-Riding Arhat?”

He went straight to the point.

Lu Ping pondered for a moment and said, “What I mean is to stall him.”

“Stall him?” Bull Demon King was puzzled. Why should he stall him?

In reality, Lu Ping had his own considerations. First of all, it was easy to kill him.

With Bull Demon King as a spy and Huang Xiaoqi, it wasn’t too difficult to kill the Elephant-Riding Arhat.

However, it would take time for his sect to take in disciples and move.

This time was crucial!

Lu Ping looked at Bull Demon King and smiled, “In my opinion, there’s no need to kill the Elephant-Riding Arhat. Senior, you don’t have to defect!”

This was another layer of Lu Ping’s thoughts.

How to kill the Elephant-Riding Arhat was also a problem.

Lu Ping didn’t want to cooperate with Bull Demon King!

The reason was very simple. It was the benefits.

The biggest benefit of killing an Elephant-Riding Arhat was that one could obtain a large amount of Heaven and Earth merit.

Then, it was very important who the head belonged to.

To cooperate, one had to have a sufficient foundation of trust.

This time, he had killed the Elephant-Riding Arhat. He would definitely have a deeper enmity with the Western Church. However, if the head ended up in the hands of Bull Demon King, then he would have to work hard for Bull Demon King in the end?

Moreover, the biggest problem was that Bull Demon King could not be counted as one of Lu Ping’s own people.

This was the first time the two of them had met.

How much trust could Lu Ping have in him?

What if this guy was trying to set him up?

What if this guy was lying to him?

Lu Ping, who had just realized that he had been rash, had already started to reflect.

When he had mentioned Sun Wukong , he subconsciously had a very high degree of trust in him. However, who knew if it was true or not?

Lu Ping couldn’t contact Sun Wukong .

What if Sun Wukongwas overturned by someone and told everything to the other party to deceive him?

When the time came for a real fight, wouldn’t Bull Demon King and the Elephant-Riding Arhat kill them? Wouldn’t that be a joke?

Therefore, Lu Ping didn’t want to get involved in this matter.

Everyone’s standpoint was different, and their way of thinking was also different.

Right now, Lu Ping only had one thought, which was to run away with the sect.

Even if it was an ambush, it would be done by himself or with someone he trusted.

At the very least, Bull Demon King was not within Lu Ping’s consideration.

But he could not say that.

Bull Demon King looked at Lu Ping and asked curiously, “What do you mean, Lu?”

Lu Ping smiled and said, “This matter is actually simple. I believe that Senior Bull came to my sect this time to investigate information, right? Then, you can consider whether you want to make a move or not, right?”

Hearing this, Old Bull smiled awkwardly.

Lu Ping didn’t mind it, he continued, “Actually, Senior Bull, there’s no need to shed all pretense of cordiality over this matter. After my sect has finished accepting disciples, Senior Bull, you will come and attack us. At that time, I will let Xiaoqi fight with you. You will pretend that she isn’t a match for you and suffer some injuries. Then, you will escape from here. Even if you return to the Western Church, will the other party be able to punish you?”

Bull Demon King shook his head and said, “Of course not. It’s impossible for me to win every battle. If the one who loses is going to die, then no one would dare to send out experts.”

Lu Ping smiled and said, “Isn’t that the end? You don’t have to bear the risk of betraying the Western Church, and you don’t have to worry about fighting Xiaoqi to the death. It’s just some injuries. You’ll be fine after recuperating!”

Bull Demon King’s eyes lit up. He slapped his thigh and said, “Why didn’t I think of this method? This is great. Otherwise, I would be worried about my son!”

“Senior Bull, aren’t you worried about Little Sweetie?”Lu Ping teased.

Old Bull was at a loss. “Little Sweetie? Who is that?”

“Ahem.” Lu Ping coughed and smiled. “I heard that Senior Bull has a daughter called Little Sweetie. I thought that you are only worried about your son, not your daughter.”

“Where did this rumor come from? I, Old Bull, only have one son!”

“What about your wife?” Lu Ping was a little curious.

Hearing this, Bull Demon King sighed, “I don’t know. I was captured by the Western Church. I haven’t seen her anywhere else. After so many years, I don’t know if she is dead or alive!”

Sometimes, one only knows how to cherish something after losing it.

Although Bull Demon King looked for a mistress, he still had feelings for Princess Iron Fan.
