After the group finished their rest, they continued to fly towards the east, raising a cloud of smoke and dust.

The sky was getting brighter, and Xiao Yu's heart was at ease. Previously, his side had suffered a huge loss because of the night sky.

Once they reached the plains, they would have the strength to fight back.

Lao Kong jumped onto the horse and didn't say anything, but it could be seen from his tightly furrowed brows that he didn't have much confidence in his current situation.

Lu Beiyou raised his head to look at the rising sun and couldn't help but to clench a scale in his hands.

When the draconian Tribe left the Dragon Locking Lake, You once gave Lu Beiyou a scale. If not, draconian would have appeared in front of Lu Beiyou and extended his hand out to help him.

But Lu Beiyou still let go of the scale after thinking about it for a while.

Even with the help of draconian, it would be difficult to find any traces of Lao Kong.

Just at this time, Lu Beiyou suddenly remembered that when Lao Kong left, Mu Qiuqiu had thrown him a strand of Incense Flames, if he remembered correctly, it was Li Muniu's Incense Flames Inheritance.

If you say so... Not good!

Lu Beiyou finally understood why there were people who intercepted Lao Kong.

Once Lao Kong fell into someone's hands, it would be a huge disaster. If he could successfully enter the Eastern Zhou Province, it would be fine.

No wonder Lao Kong had to leave the two of them. He was afraid that he would bring disaster to himself and the ball.

Lu Beiyou could not help but curse out loud. With his [Body Transformation] Intent, he rushed towards the Eastern Zhou Empire. He had to make it in time!

At the same time, Xiao Yu and Lao Kong were already surrounded by dozens of figures.

Beneath each of their bodies was a bloodthirsty beast. They were all clad in beast clothes, and on their heads were some unknown creature's skulls. It was difficult to see their faces clearly.

However, their auras had all reached the Mahayana Stage and even their weakest auras had reached the initial stages of the Mahayana.

Xiao Yu guarded Lao Kong behind him, his entire body drenched in cold sweat.

"Who the hell are you people? Why did you want to kill us? "

These people did not say anything, they only surrounded them and then opened up a path, and a middle-aged man dressed in black walked out.

When Lao Kong saw this person, he could not help but narrow his eyes.

"Ahahahaha, sorry, I'm sorry for disturbing Sage Kong because we were too careless. This old man, Li Heng, will first accompany you."

Sage Confucius?!

Xiao Yu suspiciously turned to look at Lao Kong who was behind him. Although his clothes were clean, from his appearance, it didn't seem to have anything to do with being a saint.

Seeing Xiao Yu's expression, Lao Kong couldn't help but curl her lips. Walking in front of Xiao Yu, Xiao Yu anxiously extended a hand out to try and pull him back, but she realized that she couldn't even touch him.

Lao Kong squinted his eyes as he looked at Li Heng, "I'm very curious, how are you so sure that the current Sage is me?"

Li Heng smiled as he explained, "Originally, we didn't know either, but recently, the destiny of the world has changed greatly. I hastened to send my men to inspect the city, but I did not expect to find a scholar in this small town who had not been far from the mountains for decades. We have to be suspicious. "

Lao Kong looked around at the people who surrounded him and could not help but laugh out loud, "Who would have thought! Who would have thought! However, I am very curious. Why are you two so determined to be with me? "

Li Heng laughed: "The birth of a saint is great fortune. Whoever can seize this fortune for themselves is great fortune for our nation. My Southern Barbarian will naturally not miss this opportunity."

"Thirty-six Southern Barbarian, Second Elder of the Li Family. It seems that the Sovereign King of Southern Barbarian really cares about me. "

"Originally, His Majesty wanted to come personally to receive Sage Confucius back to the imperial court. However, there are too many trivial matters in the imperial court, so he could only lead me here. I hope you can forgive me."

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."
