Chapter 284: Chapter 212 Your Weakness!_2

"Madman! A complete madman!"

The Senior Brother of Qingyun Sect, Taishi Bao, watched Nangong Zhidao of Orthodox Zhengyi Temple laughing crazily, cursing inwardly:

"Nangong Zhidao, just hurry up and kill Li Ping’an to avenge your blood feud! Why are you going insane all of a sudden, spouting such nonsense!"

"Has this cultivator from the Orthodox Zhengyi Temple, Nangong Zhidao, become possessed by the devil through his cultivation?"

Head of Immeasurable Sect, Taishu Yiqing, observed Nangong Zhidao’s crazy behavior with surprising suspicion.

"Their intermittent fighting is really torturing everyone!"

Observatory Master, Immortal Fei He from Moyun Temple, looked up at the sky soon to be engulfed by nightfall and ordered the four Taoist boys behind him:

"You must light the lamps immediately; it seems we are in for a night battle!"

"Yes, Master."

The four Taoist boys went to light the lamps.

"Li Ping’an, would you hurry up and finish the fight! After that, I need to discuss your rescue strategy with you!"

Muqiang Baoshan, the most anxious person present, was constantly worried whether the portrait of Li Ping’an provided by the monks of True Buddha Temple had already fallen into the hands of Chief Yang Kun of The Night Traveler’s Bureau.

Once it was in the hands of Chief Yang Kun, even if the plan with Li Ping’an was flawless and he secretly let Li Ping’an escape, Li Ping’an would still be endlessly pursued by The Night Traveler’s Bureau until they eventually killed him.

"Hey hey hey! Are you two going to fight or not? We have things to do tomorrow!"

"If you keep dragging this out, won’t the duel only conclude by midnight?"

"Exactly, exactly, stop wasting everyone’s time, would you?"

"Please hurry up and fight! Otherwise, one of you just concede already, it’s not like we have a share in the Imperial Court Offering!"

The impatient cultivators on the sidelines urged on.

However, Li Ping’an and Nangong Zhidao of Orthodox Zhengyi Temple treated them as if they were farting, especially Nangong Zhidao who wanted to play slowly with Li Ping’an! That was more interesting!

After much thought, Li Ping’an, with a cold face, sternly asked:

"Nangong Zhidao, what exactly do you want from me? Say it clearly! Don’t play any dirty tricks!"

"Hahaha! Li Ping’an, I didn’t expect you to have such a day too!"

Nangong Zhidao of Orthodox Zhengyi Temple asked, tilting his head:

"Li Ping’an, let me ask you, do you think of surrendering now?"

Although Li Ping’an was at a disadvantage under Nangong Zhidao’s grasp, he still defiantly probed:

"I will continue to refuse to concede; I’d like to see what you can do to me now!"

"Impossible!"

Nangong Zhidao of Orthodox Zhengyi Temple continued to threaten:

"Even if you concede, I will keep hounding you, chasing you until you die!"

Li Ping’an, disbelieving, retorted:

"Then bring it on! Who’s afraid of you!"

"Hehehe!"

The Taoist cultivator Nangong Zhidao sneered:

"I can’t believe you, Li Ping’an, are such a shameless scoundrel. If you dare to concede in today’s duel, I will kill Zixia and take what you love! Try me if you don’t believe me!"

Swallowing his fear, Li Ping’an continued earnestly:

"She’s protected by her Eldest Senior Brother Taishi Bao; you’re thinking too much!"

"Just with that useless Taishi Bao?"

The Taoist cultivator Nangong Zhidao asked angrily:

"Li Ping’an, do you still not understand? As soon as you and Zixia leave this place, I can kill you or her. Of course, for revenge, I’d rather kill Zixia first and let you suffer to death, hahaha! That’s even more cruel than a death sentence."

"Beast! You beast!"

Li Ping’an cursed angrily, and then with a pleading tone, he said helplessly,

"Nangong Zhidao, I’m thinking, have you got the wrong person? I really don’t know you, we have no grievances between us! Please stop torturing me, will you?"

"We have no grievances?"

Orthodox Zhengyi Temple Cultivator Nangong Zhidao gritted his teeth and said angrily,

"Li Ping’an, think about it again, have you offended someone recently? Think carefully!"

"Think my ass!"

Li Ping’an said helplessly,

"Even if there were, it’s not you! Don’t push me anymore! I just want to admit defeat now! Just let me be!"

"It seems you really are stubborn!"

Orthodox Zhengyi Temple Cultivator Nangong Zhidao continued to mock,

"Li Ping’an, it seems you didn’t listen to a word I said earlier! My spells may not work on you, but what about Zixia? Her route back to the Qingyun Sect is long, and can you guarantee you’ll always be by her side, huh? Just give me a chance, and I will kill her unexpectedly!"

"And then I’ll parade her severed head in front of you and tell the whole world that Li Ping’an’s beloved woman was killed by me!"

"Of course, if you don’t admit defeat now, I’ll consider it!"

"If you don’t want your woman Zixia to face danger or be captured by me to threaten you, you must kill me today,"

"though it’s still uncertain who will kill whom!"

"So, Li Ping’an, have you made up your mind, huh?"

The words of Orthodox Zhengyi Temple Cultivator Nangong Zhidao struck straight at Li Ping’an’s heart, especially the part about Zixia, which really touched a nerve.

"Since you insist on killing my woman, then I’ll just kill you today!"

Although Li Ping’an listened angrily, he was relieved that this incident took place today, right now. If the Orthodox Zhengyi Temple Cultivator Nangong Zhidao did such things in secret, it really would be hard to guard against!

"Anyway, at the Grand Ritual of the Heavenly Master, killing someone can be claimed as an accidental death, and in the end, one is merely expelled from all Taoist Sects Under Heaven, henceforth unable to participate in the Grand Ritual of the Heavenly Master. Nangong Zhidao! You’re dead!"

Once Li Ping’an decided to take the initiative to kill someone, he didn’t act rashly as he had already sensed the power of Orthodox Zhengyi Temple Cultivator Nangong Zhidao, be it in ability, spells, or cunning.

If he were not powerful, the matter of killing Zixia or using her to threaten him could have stayed in his heart, carried out in secret.

For this reason, in order to kill Orthodox Zhengyi Temple Cultivator Nangong Zhidao in the shortest time, he still needed to wait for an opportunity.

Although Li Ping’an detested the despicable and shameless tactics of Orthodox Zhengyi Temple Cultivator Nangong Zhidao, he also understood that to deal with such a person, one had to be even more despicable and shameless!

"How about this, let me think about it a bit more, how about that?"

Li Ping’an deliberately played a ploy, actually planning to suddenly ambush and kill Orthodox Zhengyi Temple Cultivator Nangong Zhidao in one move.

To make his act convincing, he deliberately looked towards Zixia, pretending to be deeply troubled, to lull Orthodox Zhengyi Temple Cultivator Nangong Zhidao into complacency.

"Alright! I’ll give you time to think!"

Orthodox Zhengyi Temple Cultivator Nangong Zhidao, believing he had completely grasped Li Ping’an’s situation, also relaxed at this moment, waiting for Li Ping’an to give an answer, then to fight a battle of life and death, forcing out all of Li Ping’an’s skills!

"These two beasts are really exhausting!"

Observatory Master Immortal Fei He from Moyun Temple looked up at the sky soon to be enveloped by nightfall and couldn’t help but sigh,

"This is still the first time since the Grand Ritual of the Heavenly Master began that it has gone on so late! Seeing the state between Li Ping’an and Nangong Zhidao, it looks like they’re going to keep wasting time!"

"But these two guys are really something, can’t say they aren’t! Damn damn damn!"

Flame Cloud Sect’s Master Zhuge Junchen, Heavenly Mist Sect Leader Mo Liqi, and Head of Immeasurable Sect, Taishu Yiqing, were able to keep their cool, just waiting to see the outcome.

Senior Brother of Qingyun Sect, Taishi Bao, was anxious, watching Li Ping’an who glanced in Zixia’s direction and cursed inwardly,

"Just hurry up and fight! Quickly kill Li Ping’an!"

Night Traveler, Muqiang Baoshan, slightly tilted his head and asked back,

"How many Night Travelers have arrived now?"

A subordinate behind him covered his mouth and replied,

"There are already twenty Night Travelers who have arrived, all hiding in the dark. Of course, others are still coming continuously this way."
