Dimension Paradise, I am a summoning apostle

Chapter 580 Two-Legged Fat Sheep, Slaying Star Lord Specializes in Countering True Fate
"Don't look at me like that, I'm not." Chu Danqing understood Chai Jungui's thoughts, and then added, "You can't pretend to be someone else."

"As for why you should give it a try?"

Chu Danqing felt that although Panmu Qinglong lost the battle, a false king is still a king.

Perhaps we can actually succeed in recruiting them.

"If even my elder brother can't do it, how could I possibly have that ability?" Chai Jungui said, laughing and crying at the same time. "Am I some kind of chosen one?"

“You are definitely not, you can rest assured about that,” Chu Danqing said honestly.

“That settles it then,” Chai Jungui replied. “Since we can’t afford to offend them, brother, why don’t you rid us of evil and leave?”

In Chai Jungui's view, since the other party would submit to the true emperor, he would at least be granted a title and become a prime minister in the future, which was far beyond what they could compare to.

"Then you and I, along with our entire families, will be executed?" Chu Danqing said with a smile, "Since we've already offended them, let's find a way to nip it in the bud."

"How many good people can be among these thieves? Killing them is doing justice for Heaven."

After Chu Danqing pointed it out, Chai Jungui also realized what was going on.

Although he has undergone some changes due to the primordial spirit of the Azure Dragon of the Panmu, the time has been too short and it is still the opinion of ordinary people.

When faced with something like this, hiding is the best and cheapest option.

But Chu Danqing's words revealed the truth, making him realize that this matter was unlikely to end well.

"If we kill a celestial deity from the upper realm who descended to earth, will we face retribution?" Chai Jungui swallowed hard and asked.

"The premise of retribution is that we live long enough to be punished, don't you think?" Chu Danqing said softly.

Chai Jungui thought this made sense.

"Leave the rest to me, you don't need to worry," Chu Danqing reassured Chai Jungui.

About half an hour later, the man came to invite him in person.

They said they wanted to apologize to Chu Danqing.

Chu Danqing thought the other party would run away, so she specifically asked Da Bao to keep an eye on them.

I didn't expect him to be so honest.

Then I followed the other person into the banquet hall, and the other person introduced themselves.

The other party claimed to be Dong Da, a law-abiding citizen who had been fond of weapons since childhood and had mastered martial arts skills.

He was forced to stay in this mountain because he had committed a crime and was being pressured by the authorities.

Upon entering the main room, a tiger skin was draped over the head seat, and he invited Chu Danqing to sit down.

He then asked Chai Jungui to sit in the left seat, while he himself sat in the right seat.

“It’s a rare treat for you, my elder brothers, to grace this desolate mountain with your presence. We have nothing to offer in return, but we do have a couple of fat sheep that I may present to you as a snack with your drinks,” Dong Da said.

As soon as he said it, Chu Danqing's face darkened.

On the contrary, Chai Jungui had never heard of a two-legged sheep, and asked, "Sheep have always had four legs, so where would you find a two-legged fat sheep? What does it look like?"

Upon hearing this, Dong Da was quite generous and immediately ordered, "Bring out these two fat sheep and skin them right here in the hall."

As soon as he finished speaking, two henchmen arrived.

One of them took a basin of clean water and placed a coconut ladle in the water.

One of them was carrying a gleaming, long-handled, sharp knife.

They all crowded to the front of the hall and stood there.

Before long, a henchman came up and said, "My lords, the fat sheep has arrived!"

Then they tied a woman to a pillar, a scene that startled Chai Jungui.

Upon hearing this, Dong Da immediately said, "Quickly, take that scoundrel's heart and liver off."

Before he could finish speaking, Chu Danqing interrupted him: "No rush."

"What, do you only have sheep here?" Chu Danqing asked.

Upon hearing this, Dong Da's expression brightened: "Brother, this fire is hard to cook and bones are hard to heal, but this is much better!"

He couldn't finish his sentence, and then he couldn't speak anymore.

Five sharp claws pierced through Da Bao's throat, and blood spurted out.

"I dare to ask, and you actually dare to answer, humph." Chu Danqing snorted coldly.

Da Bao tore Dong Da to shreds.

As for the primordial spirit, Danglu Xingjun, it was completely suppressed by Panmu Qinglong and was powerless to help.

With Dong Da dead, the Star Lord of the Road was unwilling but powerless to do anything about it and could only dissipate.

The Star Lord descended to the mortal realm to gain fame and official titles, all for the sake of advancing his career further.

Having discussed the benefits, the downside is naturally that death also means the end of one's spiritual path.

Otherwise, why would they all pledge allegiance to that chosen one? Naturally, it's because they're certain to succeed.

This happened so fast that no one had time to react before Da Bao started killing on the spot.

Immediately, a Brilliant-grade treasure chest emerged from Dong Da's mangled corpse.

"Brother, what about that sheep just now?" Chai Jungui asked incredulously.

“Old, thin men are called ‘Rao Ba Huo,’ young women are called ‘Bu Xian Yang,’ and children are called ‘He Gu Lan,’ and they are also commonly referred to as ‘Two-Legged Sheep,’” Chu Danqing explained.

Then he added, "As for this sharp knife and cold water..."

"I once heard someone say that once you get hold of a person, you first pour cold water over their head to freeze their blood and essence, then you cut them open, remove their heart and liver, and then they become fragrant, crispy, and delicious, with an unparalleled flavor." Chu Danqing had never eaten it, but he had previously read some explanations of Water Margin on marketing accounts.

The story in the book may be fictional, but there is a very high probability that Shi Nai'an, the author of Water Margin, manipulated it in this way.

"Master, Master, you have committed a terrible disaster!" cried a man who looked like a strategist.

He was relatively weak, so Da Bao positioned him to be killed later.

"Oh? It seems you know something?" Chu Danqing raised an eyebrow and then asked, "Tell me."

The man hurriedly said, "A gentleman once left a prophecy, saying that my king was destined to be ennobled and appointed prime minister, and later he served under the man of true destiny."

Later, he settled down to train the troops in the village, and...

He rambled on and on, but Chu Danqing interrupted him, asking, "Who is the gentleman who left the prophecy, and what does he look like? And what does the prophecy say?"

"I don't know who this gentleman is or what he looks like, but I remember the prophecy clearly." The man hurriedly said: "The tiger crouches and the dragon coils, its fame spreads far and wide; its majestic presence commands the respect of ghosts and gods. Meeting him, we are instantly connected and return to the true master; the name of Dong will be passed down through the ages."

Upon hearing this, Chu Danqing shook his head. If he were to succeed, it was indeed possible.

But clearly, Chu Danqing broke the prophecy.

As expected, when Mars enters the Taiwei constellation, he becomes its natural enemy.

However, we have to thank Chai Jungui for sharing half of the Azure Dragon's fortune; otherwise, we might not have succeeded.

"Then who is the true chosen one? What does he look like?" Chu Danqing continued to ask.

Since they've joined his ranks, a banquet must be held to welcome them. If they didn't even know this, Chu Danqing would have killed them on the spot.

"I know, I know. The true man is named Zhao Yuanlang, the son of the Zhao family's Vice Minister."

He was born with a bright red face, a majestic appearance, a magnanimous spirit, and was also skilled in martial arts and possessed extraordinary strength.

He was a chivalrous man who loved to fight for justice.

"Because he had beheaded twelve female musicians who were considered to have brought disaster to the country in the capital, the tyrannical emperor issued a warrant for his arrest."

Upon hearing this, Chai Jungui hurriedly asked, "Is there a dark-faced man with that person?"

As for the words that follow, quite a few people do know them.

But then a bright red face appeared, which inevitably reminded Chai Jungui of the two people who had caused him to lose everything.

"There is indeed such a man, named Zheng Ziming." This person was surprised that the other party had guessed it.

These words infuriated Chai Jungui, who then asked, "This dark-skinned man keeps spouting 'I' and 'I'?"

"Second King, you've misunderstood. He wasn't talking about 'I,' but rather a local expression for 'joy,' which is what I meant," the other party explained.

"It really is these two, truly, truly," Chai Jungui said, but he couldn't quite put his finger on it.

If that red-faced man is the true emperor, then wouldn't I be left with no choice but to suffer in silence?
"Don't call them 'King' or 'Second King'," Chu Danqing corrected the other person, then asked, "Did your king also serve these two two-legged sheep?"

“That’s right, but they didn’t eat it, and they also released those two…that person,” the man continued.

Chu Danqing wasn't surprised to hear this, and then asked, "Where did those two go?"

"I don't know, but I do know that His Majesty ordered people to prepare clothes and travel expenses and personally escorted them down the mountain," the other party said.

"What a pity." Chu Danqing felt only regret that she hadn't been able to find out their whereabouts, and then said, "Alright, it's getting late, you should be on your way."

Chu Danqing never promised the other party that he could live, nor did he mention it.

A group of robbers who plunder and eat people have no reason to survive.

He suspected that Dong Da's actions were most likely influenced by the primordial spirit of Danglu Xingjun.

With Da Bao unleashing his full power and Dong Da, the celestial being who descended to earth to block the way, no one could resist him.

As for the people who were kidnapped, only the woman who is currently tied up remains.

After all, Dong Da had promised the other party that he would turn over a new leaf, so he stopped robbing and looting and instead only did things like robbing the rich to help the poor.

The woman was rescued by Chai Jungui.

After finishing the last order, she's the only one left who hasn't eaten yet.

After careful questioning, it was learned that the woman had returned to her hometown with her family, but had suffered this misfortune.

"Brother, what should we do with this woman?" Chai Jungui was also at a loss.

The whole family is dead, and there's nowhere to settle them down.

If a frail woman were allowed to leave on her own, she probably wouldn't live long.

"My two benefactors, if you do not mind, I am willing to be your slave, I only ask to submit myself." The woman also came from a wealthy family and knew that the world was difficult these days.

I understand that without her family's protection, she would likely meet a tragic end if no one were to safeguard her.

Chu Danqing frowned; this was indeed a difficult situation to handle.

"What do you think?" Chu Danqing asked Chai Jungui in return.

"I think it's feasible." Chai Jungui gritted his teeth; after all, it was a human life.

"Since you've agreed, then it's up to you." This was exactly what Chu Danqing had been waiting for.

Chu Danqing definitely wouldn't accept it. He was going to leave this trial world eventually, so it was best to avoid this kind of entanglement.

"Huh?" Chai Jungui didn't react in time.

"No need for that. You handle this. I'll go see if Da Bao has left us any horses or anything. Otherwise, two mules won't be enough for three people." Chu Danqing said, and then walked outside.

The rest is up to him.
