Faced with Chu Di's contempt, Ling Jiuxiao not only did not get angry, but smiled and said: "Yes, you are indeed a smart person."
Ling Jiuxiao's attitude and answers made Chu Di confused. At this moment, it was a life and death showdown, why did he call me smart? Where is this going?
Ling Jiuxiao didn't make Chu Di confused for long, and then explained: "When people know that they are going to die, there are roughly two states they show. One is crying and begging for mercy, and the other is treating death as if it were death."
Chu Di basically agreed with Ling Jiuxiao's statement, but did not comment, waiting for the other party's next words.
As expected, Ling Jiuxiao said again: "What I want to say is that the first type, those who cry and beg for mercy, are all idiots, and those who regard death as home are the smart ones."
Upon hearing this, Chu Di roughly understood what the other party meant. Ling Jiuxiao meant that crying for a dying person is in vain, and begging for mercy is in vain. After all, death is inevitable, but all dignity is lost before death. Although those who regard death as a dead end will not survive, at least they can maintain their moral integrity and live up to their reputation for the rest of their lives.
After understanding what Ling Jiuxiao meant, he also understood the reason why Ling Jiuxiao was not angry. It turned out that he regarded himself as the second type of person. Just as he was about to speak, Ling Jiuxiao suddenly said: "It's a pity that no one can know that you are like this." Pretending to be brave, although the people above can see you and me fighting, they can't hear the dialogue between you and me. So I must remind you that your cleverness is in the wrong place."
At the same time that Ling Jiuxiao said this, Ling Rui had appeared in the banquet hall above Ruoshui City, looking at the two people confronting each other under the transparent square brick with an impatient expression, and said, "Master Jiu is still nagging Chu Di. What? Can't you just come back? Chu Di won't live long anyway, so why bother saying more?"
Ling Jiamu laughed when he heard this and said, "You kid, your ninth master just wants to play a game of cat and mouse, and at the same time let us all appreciate his power. What's wrong with this? Is Chu Di weak? Can any waves come out of the water city?"
Ling Rui said: "Father, I don't know. This Chu Di has a lot of strange abilities. Although he is not able to escape from Ruoshui City, he may not be able to severely injure Master Jiu before he dies. Master Jiu is not playing cat tricks." Mouse, he's facing a trapped tiger!"
Ling Jiamu said with emotion: "Rui'er, do you think so highly of Chu Di?"
Ling Rui said dissatisfied: "Father, don't think about it. I have already told you and Jiuye that in Lingtian City, Hao'er and all the masters of the Hezhong Empire besieged Chu Di. In the end, instead of being able to hurt him, he took it easy. Killing the Tulong, with this record, can Master Jiu do it?"
Ling Jiamu said disapprovingly: "I have not forgotten the battle you mentioned, but it was in the martial arts examination room in Lingtian City. Can it be compared with that in Ruoshui City? In Ruoshui City, your Jiuye's martial arts increased a thousand times. Not only that, but Chu Di’s ability has been weakened by more than a thousand times. Isn’t this enough for you, Master Jiu, to defeat him? Or do you mean that you don’t even believe in the weak water city passed down by our ancestors?”
Ling Rui objected: "Haier has never doubted the power of Ruoshui City, but as he said just now, Chu Di's abilities are unpredictable. If Master Jiu continues like this, he might be able to find a way to sneak attack Jiu Di. Master Jiu, once he really does it, wouldn’t Master Jiu’s blow from him be in vain?”
Ling Jiamu nodded and said: "Well, what you said makes sense, but now that Ruoshui City has been closed, as long as your ninth master doesn't take the initiative to withdraw, who can summon him? He can't hear our summons either."
After listening to the conversation between the father and son, Shu Ya, who was sitting at the guest table, didn't know that Chu Di had been deceived. She suddenly stood up and said: "Ling Jiamu, Ling Rui, you are murdering the generals of the empire, aren't you afraid?" Will His Imperial Majesty hold you accountable?"
Seeing this, Ling Rui sneered disdainfully, took out Yao Ji's edict from his arms and said, "Shu Ya, you are not the kind of stupid woman. Do you think Her Majesty the Empress doesn't know what is happening here?"
Shu Ya was speechless because she knew that Yao Ji's consciousness was attached to this edict. In other words, no matter where Yao Ji was at the moment, she had a clear understanding of what was happening here. Since she did not intervene, it meant that she I also hope that Chu Di will be killed.
Ling Rui then turned to the direction of the Hezhong Empire and saluted: "I believe that Her Majesty the Empress is just. It is obvious to all here that it was Chu Di who insisted on going down to show off. My father tried to stop him again and again, but failed to stop his inflated desire for expression. What can we do? I believe Her Majesty the Empress is equally aware of this process."
Shu Ya was still speechless, because she was thinking the same thing in her heart, and at this time she also understood that the person confronting Chu Di below was not Ling Zhen at all, but Ling Jiuxiao, the top master of Changwu Kingdom!
So what if I just understand? She only regretted that she had not been able to dissuade Chu Di just now. It was too late to say anything at this time. Not to mention that she did not know how to open the entrance and exit of this weak water city. Even if she knew, could Ling Rui and his son allow her to do whatever she wanted? You don’t have to think about it to know that it’s simply impossible!
It's not possible to force it, and it's not feasible to hold hostages in exchange for Chu Di. With my own combat power, let alone dealing with others, one Ling Rui can beat ten of myself, which must be more than enough!
It is an indisputable fact that the Ling Rui clan murdered Chu Di, and he and Chu Di were separated in two places, and they were both in a position where they could not resist!
what to do? At this moment, the only countermeasure Shu Ya could think of was to escape from here and find Long Yaojing and Julie. Although the two women Long Zhu and the metal killer could not defeat all the powerful enemies of the Feimang Star Changwu Kingdom, Long Yaojing can find Li Zhiyun through Yao Ji.
Even if you, Yao Ji, don't care about the affairs of Changwu Kingdom, you can't shirk asking you to help find Li Zhiyun, right? Otherwise, if Li Zhiyun learns about Chu Di's murder in the future, he will definitely not let Yao Ji go.
Thinking of this, Shu Ya immediately released her consciousness, locked on a space outside the orbit of the flying star, and used the teleportation method. However, after thinking about it, she was dumbfounded because she found her body standing in the banquet hall. Not moving at all.
what happened? Is there also a ban on teleportation here? But how did Chu Di teleport in with him before?
While he was doubting, he suddenly heard Ling Jiamu sneer: "Although Changwu Country is not a great place, you can't just come and leave at will. If you don't want to die, just sit back and sit down!"
Shu Ya knew that the other person was talking about herself, so she raised her head and said, "What? Do you still dare to kill me in public? I am a soldier of the Hezhong Border Guard Army. If you kill me, aren't you afraid of being held accountable by the Hezhong Empire?"
After hearing this, Ling Rui burst into laughter and said, "Okay, stop dreaming. Now that Chu Di is dead, I still have to be the vanguard officer of the border guard army in the river! Who made me the top martial artist? You Since you consider yourself a border guard soldier, then you are my subordinate, right?"
Shu Ya knew clearly that this was not a place for reason, so she simply kept silent. Ling Rui still said, "I think you look pretty good. Aren't you Chu Di's orderly? Okay, now I order you to be my orderly and follow me." Let’s go to the river together. If you dare to disobey the military order, I will kill you without mercy!”
Ling Rui made up his mind to torture Shu Ya to avenge Chu Di's hatred for taking away two beauties from him. While talking excitedly, he had already begun to imagine the scene of torturing Shu Ya. He got carried away and suddenly heard his father Ling Jiamu say : "Rui'er, the fight has started below, don't you want to see your Master Jiu's martial arts?"
Ling Rui suddenly woke up and said, "You guys should keep an eye on this woman. I'll see how Chu Di died first."
After saying that, he lowered his head and looked at the transparent square tiles under his feet. Sure enough, fighting had already started below.
