Chapter 1451 Retreat
Chapter 1451 Retreat
A palace made of divine artifacts of a great emperor, if used to suppress people, will have a special and miraculous effect.
If Chen Xuan were to enter this palace now, it would be no different than walking into a trap.
“Fellow Daoist Kun Kun, this palace is indeed a magical artifact I crafted. Of course, I can guarantee that I will never use it to attack you.”
"If you have any concerns, I can arrange the banquet at another restaurant."
Ma Sanshui chuckled, his face neither flushed nor his heart skipped a beat, appearing completely composed.
To prove that he truly had no ill intentions, he invited Chen Xuan to move to Zuixianlou, the best restaurant in Wanyao City.
"There's no need to change locations. The thing I like to do most is to knowingly venture into dangerous places."
“If Lord Ma is truly sincere towards me, then there will naturally be no problems between us, and we can even become friends.”
"Of course, if Lord Ma is not honest and upright, then I will not be polite."
Chen Xuan had an indifferent attitude. Anyway, he had already made the unpleasant points clear beforehand. As long as you don't do anything underhanded, everyone will be fine.
If you insist on causing trouble, then you'll have to bear the consequences.
Ma Sanshui didn't expect Chen Xuan to be so blunt. A normal person in this situation would either not go in or just turn their back and leave.
Despite knowing there might be a trap that could be detrimental to him, Chen Xuan still insisted on entering.
"Haha, Fellow Daoist Kun Kun is incredibly brave, I admire him. I, Ma Sanshui, can also guarantee that I will never lay a hand on you."
Ma Sanshui laughed and gestured for him to enter.
Chen Xuan didn't say much this time and simply followed him inside.
"Elder, is the Ancestor's move truly a case of luring the enemy into a trap only to trap them later?"
Before even entering the mansion, Ma Qingshan couldn't contain his excitement and asked.
Once inside the Ma family's castle, many things would no longer be up to Chen Xuan!
Therefore, in Ma Qingshan's view, this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!
"Let's go inside and talk. If the Ancestor hasn't said to take action, then no matter what, we must not take action!"
Ma Changlong spoke with a gloomy expression.
"Don't worry, I'm measured!"
Ma Changlong licked his lips, a fierce glint flashing in his eyes.
He was never truly convinced of his defeat to Chen Xuan.
Now that the opportunity for revenge is right in front of him, he naturally doesn't want to miss it!
Inside the castle, a banquet has already been set up.
A huge round table was set up, with Ma Sanshui sitting at the head of the table and Chen Xuan sitting next to him.
The round table can rotate, and it is decorated with various delicacies, emitting an enticing aroma.
At a glance, there are at least a hundred kinds of meat.
Chen Xuan was slightly taken aback, a look of surprise on his face, and couldn't help but ask curiously:
"Aren't you horse people vegetarians? Why is there so much meat on the table?"
Ma Sanshui laughed and said, "Those who eat vegetarian food are ordinary horses that haven't cultivated themselves, while we are demons who have cultivated ourselves into spirits, so we also eat meat."
"Is it?"
A meaningful look appeared on Chen Xuan's face.
Suddenly, he pointed to one of the bowls and said with a half-smile, "So what's with the meat in this bowl? I smell a horse in it. Could it be horse meat?"
Ma Sanshui suddenly clapped his hands and exclaimed, "Fellow Daoist Kun Kun has such a keen nose! This bowl of meat is indeed horse meat."
"What, do you horse people eat your own kind?" Chen Xuan raised an eyebrow slightly.
"Those that were eaten were just ordinary horses with little talent for cultivation. Their lifespan was only a few decades. Even if they lived, they would only become mounts for humans or other monsters."
"Therefore, for such a common horse, living is often not as pleasant as dying."
"And after death, becoming food for one's own kind is also a kind of contribution."
Ma Sanshui's words were perfectly reasonable.
In his view, eating one's own kind was not a strange thing.
He didn't think it was a big deal, but Chen Xuan found it extremely disgusting.
Therefore, he didn't touch a single dish on the table, whether it was meat or vegetables.
“Fellow Daoist Ma, you invited me to your residence, I’m afraid it’s not just a simple invitation to dinner.”
Chen Xuan spoke meaningfully.
At first, he actually thought that Ma Sanshui wanted to lure him into the castle of the Great Divine Emperor's magic artifact before making a move against him.
But now, he discovered that this guy showed absolutely no sign of making a move.
On the contrary, Ma Qingshan, who was standing behind and unable to sit at the table, looked like he couldn't wait to take action.
If Ma Sanshui nodded at this moment, he would not hesitate to immediately attack Chen Xuan.
As for Ma Changlong, he is more cautious and steady, but he clearly intends to take action more often than not.
Chen Xuan remained unperturbed by the reactions of these two, sitting calmly and collectedly.
He had only one idea: not to fire the first shot.
If you won't make a move, then I won't either!
But if you resort to violence, I won't hold back!
“Fellow Daoist Kun Kun, to be honest, I do have a request. If you can help me, I will be eternally grateful and will certainly offer you a generous gift.”
A smile appeared on Ma Sanshui's face.
Goodness, after pretending for so long, the fox's tail has finally been revealed!
No wonder he was so polite in inviting me to dinner; he wanted to ask for my help!
"Fellow Daoist Ma, are you joking with me? You are one of the three city lords of this Ten Thousand Demon City, and a powerful expert at the Great God Emperor realm. With your status and strength, do you really need my help?"
Chen Xuan thought, isn't this pure nonsense?
He himself is only a quasi-god emperor, how can he help?
Besides, if this guy really encounters any difficulties, he can just ask his two other good partners, the other two city lords of the Ten Thousand Demon City, for help.
However, Chen Xuan was not in a hurry to refuse. He wanted to see what this guy had to say before deciding whether to help.
"Hehe, Fellow Daoist Kun Kun, to be honest, in the entire Southern Barbarian lands, I'm afraid only you can help me with this matter."
Ma Sanshui said with a wry smile.
Chen Xuan paused for a moment, still not in a hurry to refuse, and then said:
"Tell me what it is first."
Beside them, Ma Qingshan and Ma Changlong were also filled with curiosity.
The two of them thought that Ma Sanshui would resort to violence without any sense of martial ethics, but they never expected that he would ask Chen Xuan for help.
Why would the progenitor of the horse tribe need a human's help?
What difficulties did our ancestor encounter?
"You two, step back."
Suddenly, Ma Sanshui turned around and glanced at Ma Qingshan and Ma Changlong, speaking in a calm tone.
"Ancestor, this..."
Ma Qingshan was startled; this was something he didn't want them to know!
