Li Xuanling didn't pay much attention to the things he had taken out in a moment of boredom. It wasn't until he was surrounded by Dong Zhuo's loyal lackeys that he realized that today's matter had caused such a huge commotion.
However, to him, this matter did not have any impact at all. It was just that the Great Han Dynasty was going to perish. It was normal for dynasties to change. Xia, Shang, Zhou, Qin, West, East, Han, Three Kingdoms, Two Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, Sui, Tang, Five Dynasties, and Ten Kingdoms, Liao, Song, Xia, Jin, Yuan, Ming, and Qing. Were there not many countries that had perished in history?
Flying high in the sky, Li Xuanling's Divine Sense had already locked onto Cao Cao, who was galloping on the main road. This guy was really unlucky. During the assassination, Dong Zhuo saw him holding his sword in the mirror. Then, he was bumped into by Li Jue, and his efforts were all in vain.
Li Xuanling's body rapidly descended, and he instantly appeared right in front of Cao Cao. His feet were fifty centimeters off the ground, and his body was not stained with dust. He looked like a god.
Diao Chan was supported by his celestial spiritual energy and also flew into the air. Her azure tasseled dress emitted a faint green light, making her look like a fairy descending to the mortal world.
Cao Cao's horse was startled by the sudden appearance of the two people and instantly stood up. Cao Cao, who had been tense all this while, patted the horse's back with one hand and wanted to jump down, but the reins in his hand pulled him back.
Under the influence of inertia, she fell heavily to the ground. Her face landed on the ground and slid to Li Xuanling's feet. The frightened horse ran into the dense forest at the side in a panic.
"Sir, you won't fall to your death, right…" Diao Chan looked at Cao Cao, who had not moved for a long time, and her face was filled with worry. In this era, there was no lack of people who fell off their horses and died.
"I won't die. I'm just a little dazed for a moment.”Li Xuanling's hearing and sight were sharp, and he could easily tell that Cao Cao's aura was relatively stable. He was just dazed from the fall.
A moment later, Cao Cao's fingers that were scratched by the ground moved and he struggled to get up from his face. Not only was he dazed from the fall, but he also felt that his internal organs were about to fly out.
Feeling the burning pain on his palms and cheeks, Cao Cao straightened his body and carefully touched the face that was almost disfigured.
Diao Chan, who was standing at the side, covered her small mouth to stop herself from screaming.
Cao Cao's face was now a mess of flesh and blood, and there were still many broken stones on his face. He was no longer as extraordinary as he usually was.
According to the medical technology of this era, Cao Cao's face would be ruined. Forget about seducing young ladies and young wives in the future, it would be good if he did not get thrown rotten vegetables and leaves when he went out.
"I ate it." Li Xuanling threw out an Essence Cultivating Pill. His tone was calm as if he was looking at a stranger who had nothing to do with him.
"You don't have to play with me like this.”Cao Cao looked at the pill that was thrown into his hand and said.
It was said that a scholar could be killed but not humiliated. Now, Li Xuanling's high and mighty attitude made Cao Cao feel uncomfortable. Since when could an alchemist be above an official?
"The reason why humans are able to conquer nature with their insignificant strength is because humans know how to think.”Li Xuanling chuckled, not minding Cao Cao's attitude at all.
Cao Cao was suspicious by nature and would never trust others easily. This kind of person was very smart. Although he was temporarily affected by the sudden change, he would quickly react.
Cao Cao was slightly stunned. After frowning, he ate the Essence Cultivating Pill in his hand. He was now a stray dog facing Dong Zhuo's pursuit. It was difficult to find a place to hide in the Great Han Dynasty. It was just an unknown pill. Could it make his current situation worse?
"This!" As soon as the pill entered his stomach, Cao Cao's eyes widened. The pill melted as soon as it entered his mouth, and the medicinal power circulated through his limbs and bones. His originally turbulent internal organs quickly recovered under a cool breath, and an itchy feeling came from his face.
After the dust was expelled, the wounds on his hands and face quickly healed. Cao Cao looked at his hands in a daze and touched his face.
"You're a little whiter than before, and your skin is a little better too. Probably no one will call you Black Cao anymore.”Li Xuanling said half-jokingly.
That look of disdain made Cao Cao slightly uncomfortable, but now that his injuries had been healed by the person in front of him, he should thank him, even though his injuries were caused by the sudden appearance of the two of them.
"Thank you, thank you, Taoist priest." Cao Cao thought for a long time before finding a suitable name. He could only tell that the person in front of him was an outsider and had methods that ordinary people could not compare to. He had no idea who the other party was or where he came from.
The sight of Li Xuanling and Diao Chan floating in the air shocked Cao Cao, but he was still someone who had seen the big picture.
After being baptized by Zhang Jiao's half-baked immortal techniques and witnessing the ability of these cultivators to summon the wind and rain, floating in the air was not that hard to accept.
"Taoist priest? I'm not Buddha, Dao, Devil, or unorthodox. Now that I've entered the Celestial Immortal Realm, it's not appropriate for you to call me that.”Li Xuanling opened his mouth, and his words raised his status by countless times. Behind him, Diao Chan's face was filled with twinkling stars.
Cao Cao frowned. He never believed in immortals. Legend had it that Zhang Jiao's technique was taught by one of the three immortals, Nanhua.
Sometimes, when the truth was right in front of him, even if he wanted to refute it, he could not bring himself to do so. The teachings of the saints seemed particularly powerless in the face of the truth.
"Aren't you curious why I'm looking for you?”Li Xuanling looked at Cao Cao, who quickly calmed down after his expression fluctuated. He praised Cao Cao in his heart. As expected of a man who would be able to divide the world in the future. This temperament and bearing were truly something few could compare to.
"Please enlighten me, Exalted Immortal." Cao Cao's attitude was more or less respectful, but he was naturally suspicious, so he did not bow his head like ordinary people.
"Previously, I said that your assassination would not succeed. Now, do you believe me?”Li Xuanling's expression was calm, but he was secretly laughing. From the moment Cao Cao called him 'Exalted Immortal', Cao Cao had already fallen into the trap he had prepared. It was too late to escape!
"A gentleman has things to do and things not to do. Even if I know it won't work, I have to go on this trip.”Cao Cao frowned and muttered to himself for a moment before replying ambiguously.
