Chapter 1950

Ye Zhangqing at this moment is being suppressed by the pressure of Ji Le Gong Er Zu, unable to move.

In other words, it can be said that if Ye Zhangqing were really killed, he would not die at the hands of that junior palace master of Ji Le Gong, but at the hands of Ji Le Gong Er Zu.

As a figure of the level of an elder ancestor, yet acting like this, it is indeed contemptible.

Your Ji Le Gong disciples already have the cultivation advantage, yet you still use pressure to suppress the opponent, not daring to let them fight fairly—does this not show that your Ji Le Gong is afraid?

Many people present think this way.

Right now that junior palace master of Ji Le Gong has already stood up, but Ji Le Gong Er Zu shows no sign of withdrawing the pressure at all.

Even if Zhang Xiaohuai earlier wanted to slay that junior palace master of Ji Le Gong, he had no intention of doing it himself.

He merely stepped in to block the Ji Le Gong Palace Master, while the one who actually acted was always Ye Zhangqing himself.

Moreover, the two were at the same realm, so that junior palace master of Ji Le Gong losing is not unjust.

But now, as an elder ancestor, Ji Le Gong Er Zu personally steps onto the stage; although he does not directly strike, what difference does this make from tying a pig to a chopping board?

That junior palace master of Ji Le Gong need only raise his hand and drop his blade, and Ye Zhangqing has no room to resist at all.

However, while many people think this in their hearts, they dare not show it even a bit on their faces.

Even though the crowd includes not a few elders of great clans, and even sect masters of various sects.

But compared to Ji Le Gong Er Zu, they are still far inferior, not worth looking at, simply not worth looking at.

At this moment, if someone were to speak up, wouldn't that just provoke Ji Le Gong Er Zu's displeasure, while Ye Zhangqing has no relation to them at all; even if people feel a bit contemptuous, they could not possibly stand up for him.

They would merely bring disaster upon themselves for nothing.

On the stage, after that junior palace master of Ji Le Gong struggled to rise, a flash of suspicion also appeared in his eyes.

He naturally could also feel that Ye Zhangqing at this moment is basically like a lamb awaiting slaughter, unable to move at all.

In this situation, killing Ye Zhangqing would not bring him even a hint of joy.

Because this could not be considered his victory at all.

With the pride of a Heavenly Pride, he wanted to make that junior palace master withdraw the pressure on Ye Zhangqing.

However, upon glancing at the elder ancestor, he saw that the elder ancestor had no intention of lifting the restriction to let him fight Ye Zhangqing.

After hesitating a moment, that junior palace master ultimately also chose to acquiesce.

He merely feared provoking the elder ancestor; it was absolutely not out of fear of Ye Zhangqing—even if the elder ancestor lifted the restriction and let him fight Ye Zhangqing again, he would not be afraid.

Comforting himself with such thoughts, he stepped forward toward Ye Zhangqing.

Watching that junior palace master of Ji Le Gong approach step by step, Zhang Xiaohuai below, likewise tightly suppressed, already had eyes icy to the extreme.

However, strangely, besides anger, there was no trace of worry.

Could it be that Zhang Xiaohuai is not worried about this brat on the stage?

The Ji Le Gong Palace Master felt suspicious in his heart.

It shouldn't be; given the strength Ye Zhangqing has shown, even a pig would know to nurture him well—how could Zhang Xiaohuai not know?

Don't look at this guy as someone who knows no rules; actually he is quite shrewd, basically never having suffered a loss, so it's impossible for him to do such a foolish thing.

The Ji Le Gong Palace Master always felt that something was off, but for a moment he couldn't put his finger on it.

Surely it's not possible to have Huang Lao make a move, right?

Just as the Ji Le Gong Palace Master was secretly guessing, on the stage that junior palace master of Ji Le Gong had already walked up to Ye Zhangqing.

Expressionless, his tone also extremely indifferent as he spoke.

"Don't blame me; background is also a kind of strength."

Saying that, the junior palace master of Ji Le Gong prepared to act, his long sword immediately slashing toward Ye Zhangqing's neck.

However, facing the extremely sharp blade, Ye Zhangqing showed not the slightest panic.

Even though not a single finger could move under the pressure of Ji Le Gong Er Zu, Ye Zhangqing seemed to feel no threat of death at all.

Because from the very beginning, Ye Zhangqing knew he would not die.

Well, when the sword tip of that junior palace master of Ji Le Gong was only two cun away from Ye Zhangqing, an invisible barrier easily blocked the strike.

"This is...................."

The invisible barrier prevented that junior palace master of Ji Le Gong's sword tip from advancing even a fraction, no matter how hard he tried.

And Ji Le Gong Er Zu above in the sky only then sensed the existence of that barrier.

His brows instantly knit together; the only person in the entire Cooking King Immortal City capable of doing this is one.

"Huang Lao, are you going to protect this brat?"

Even when Ji Le Gong Er Zu speaks, he must respectfully address him as Huang Lao.

As those words fell, Huang Lao's figure appeared beside Ye Zhangqing; seeing this, the junior palace master of Ji Le Gong hesitated not at all, immediately withdrawing.

At the same time, the pressure that had enveloped Ye Zhangqing, Zhang Xiaohuai, and many strong ones of the Cooking King Immortal City vanished instantly.

Feeling only a lightness in his body, Ye Zhangqing moved a bit and felt completely relaxed.

Meanwhile below the stage, Zhang Xiaohuai already shouted.

"Is your Ji Le Gong looking to start a war?"

"So what if it is?"

Upon hearing that, Ji Le Gong Er Zu merely gave Zhang Xiaohuai a faint glance, as if he completely disregarded him.

His gaze then directly shifted to Huang Lao.

Is Zhang Xiaohuai mad? To go so far as to have Huang Lao act for a mere junior?

This amounts to what? It amounts to Ji Le Gong letting their elder brother come out of seclusion for a reason.

The Ji Le Gong Grand Ancestor is currently in closed-door cultivation; each time he emerges, he must pay a considerable price.

Therefore, under normal circumstances, unless faced with a matter of life and death, Ji Le Gong will not disturb the Grand Ancestor.

Let alone doing so just for a junior disciple.

Even if the Young Palace Master of Ji Le Gong is killed, it will not even alarm the Great Ancestor.

Of course, if it's the First Young Palace Master, that's a different matter; after all, although they're all called Young Palace Masters, their status is completely different.

To put it bluntly, the other few Young Palace Masters of Ji Le Gong are all lackeys of that first one; they're not even on the same level.

Therefore, the situation of Ji Le Gong's Great Ancestor should be about the same as Huang Lao's.

It will not easily involve this level.

Therefore, Ji Le Gong Er Zu is thus filled with complex feelings; Zhang Xiaohuai is really crazy.

However, upon second thought, he again scoffs endlessly; Zhang Xiaohuai's move is like he's lost his mind.

Using Huang Lao in such an insignificant place wastes a strike; if Cooking King Immortal City later faces a life-or-death situation, what then?

Can the life or death of a junior compare to the whole Cooking King Immortal City? This Cooking King Immortal City is likely to be ruined in Zhang Xiaohuai's hands; it's utterly foolish.

Ji Le Gong Er Zu thought this in his heart, but down below, as Huang Lao appeared, he said it unhurriedly.

「Old man is this kid's Protector of the Way, keeping him not normal. 」

Huh???
