A Bull Should Act Like a Bull

Ao Guang saw Chen Xuan charging directly towards the two bulls and thought Chen Xuan was going to use force. He couldn't help but shake his head.

But the next scene made Ao Guang's jaw drop. Because Chen Xuan didn't use force; instead, he sat down not far from the two bulls.

At the same time, the Green Lotus Precious Color Banner directly hung above Chen Xuan's head, and green lotuses bloomed all over the sky, blocking the lightning bolts within a certain range.

Meanwhile, Chen Xuan watched the two bulls butt heads with great interest, occasionally shaking his head and sighing.

This inevitably made the two bulls feel quite awkward, so they stopped butting heads.

Instead, they turned their heads and asked Chen Xuan, "What do you mean, kid? Sitting there shaking your head and sighing?"

Chen Xuan stood up and brushed the dust off his clothes. He held a handful of melon seeds in his hand, eating them and spitting the shells on the ground.

It could be said that at this moment, Chen Xuan perfectly embodied the role of a spectator.

This made the two bulls even more furious. They exchanged glances and charged directly towards Chen Xuan.

Unfortunately, before the two bulls could reach Chen Xuan, they were blocked by the green lotuses floating in mid-air.

At this point, Chen Xuan finally spoke, "You two simpletons, fighting for hundreds of years over such a tiny place, it's truly hilarious."

Hearing Chen Xuan look down on Liubo Mountain, the Thunder Beast Kui immediately became unhappy.

"You say this Liubo Mountain is a tiny place? I think you're truly short-sighted.

Do you know that this Liubo Mountain is a famous immortal island in the East Sea? Even the Dragon Race is eyeing Liubo Mountain.

They wish they could drive us away immediately and claim this Liubo Mountain for themselves."

Ao Guang, who was halfway up the mountain, was so angry at the Thunder Beast Kui's words that he stomped his feet and beat his chest.

"You two simpletons, the East Sea Dragon Race wants to drive you away because you're too noisy, not because there's anything extraordinary about this Liubo Mountain."

Unfortunately, Ao Guang's words were selectively ignored by the Thunder Beast Kui and the Great Water Buffalo.

They still stood proudly in front of Chen Xuan, declaring their ownership of Liubo Mountain.

Chen Xuan smiled and threw the last melon seed in his hand into his mouth.

As he spat out the shell, Chen Xuan spoke again, "Let me tell you a story. Once upon a time, there was a frog..."

Chen Xuan vividly told the story of the frog in the well. At first, the two bulls listened attentively.

But in the end, these two simpletons finally understood. They glared at Chen Xuan and said, "You're a bad kid! You're saying we're those toads in the well."

Chen Xuan smiled, "Isn't it true? Do you know that beyond this East Sea, there is the boundless Great Desolate Continent?

On the Great Desolate Continent, there are countless grotto-heavens and blessed lands. Even the places occupied by the Demon Race have spiritual energy a hundred times more abundant than your Liubo Mountain.

Not to mention Mount Buzhou, formed from the spine of Great God Pangu, and Kunlun Mountain, where my sect is located."

As he spoke, Chen Xuan flipped his hand, and a Ginseng Fruit appeared in his hand.

"This Ginseng Fruit is full of spiritual energy and grows on the Great Desolate Land. I wonder if you have it on your Liubo Mountain?"

The two bulls were already stunned by Chen Xuan's words, and their brains were probably a bit overloaded at this point.

Now, feeling the abundant spiritual energy emanating from the Ginseng Fruit, they became even more convinced of Chen Xuan's words.

Seeing the appearance of the two oxen, Chen Xuan immediately struck while the iron was hot and said, "Do you two want this Ginseng Fruit?"

As soon as Chen Xuan said this, the two oxen nodded their heads desperately, afraid that their performance wasn't as sincere as the other's.

"There is only one Ginseng Fruit, but there are two of you. This makes things a bit difficult for me. How about this?

You two compete, and whoever wins, I will give him this Ginseng Fruit. And I will also give him a great opportunity."

What Chen Xuan didn't expect was that as soon as Chen Xuan finished speaking, the two oxen butted heads again.

This left Chen Xuan speechless, and even Ao Guang, who was halfway up the mountain, couldn't help but smile wryly at this point.

Chen Xuan quickly said, "Stop, stop, stop. You two have been butting heads for five hundred years, and I'm afraid you won't be able to determine a winner even if you butt heads for another five hundred years.

I don't have time to stay here with you. How about this, I'll come up with a way for you to compete that will definitely determine a winner."

The two oxen also knew that they wouldn't be able to determine a winner by continuing to butt heads like this. They immediately agreed to Chen Xuan's suggestion without hesitation.

Chen Xuan waved his hand, and an ox cart appeared in front of the two oxen.

"An ox should look like an ox. This is an ox cart. Only an ox that can pull an ox cart can be called a true ox.

You two will now pull this ox cart. Whoever can pull this ox cart will be considered the winner."

Seeing the unremarkable ox cart in front of them, neither of the two simpletons paid it any mind.

Thunder Beast Kui was the first to volunteer and went directly to the ox cart.

"I'll go first. Don't talk about your small ox cart, even this Liubo Mountain, I can pull it around the East Sea twice."

After speaking, he directly got into the ox cart, ready to pull it and show Chen Xuan.

It was a pity that Thunder Beast Kui used all his might but couldn't move the ox cart even half a step.

This couldn't help but make the Great Water Buffalo excited. While ridiculing Thunder Beast Kui, he told him to quickly move aside and let him try.

Thunder Beast Kui really couldn't pull it, but he also didn't think the Great Water Buffalo could do it.

He simply got out of the ox cart and said disdainfully to the Great Water Buffalo, "I can't pull it, so you can?"

"Haven't you heard? Only oxen can pull ox carts. When have you ever seen an ox that looks as ugly as you?"

After the Great Water Buffalo finished speaking, he got into the ox cart and began to pull it with all his might.

It was a pity that the ox cart still didn't move at all. No matter how hard the Great Water Buffalo tried, it was useless.

This couldn't help but make Thunder Beast Kui laugh heartily, constantly ridiculing the Great Water Buffalo, saying he wasn't a good ox either.

At this moment, Chen Xuan sighed and shook his head, "It seems neither of you is destined for a Saint?"

As soon as Chen Xuan said this, it was even more shocking than who would get the Ginseng Fruit.

Even Ao Guang couldn't help but flash his figure and directly came to Chen Xuan's side.

"Celestial Immortal, can I try? Perhaps I can pull this ox cart."

Chen Xuan thought to himself, What are you messing around for! Could it be that you are also an ox?

He simply smiled and said to Ao Guang, "If you want to pull, you should pull the Nine Dragons Aloeswood Carriage. This ox cart is not something you should be pulling."

As soon as Chen Xuan finished speaking, Ao Guang seemed to recall something. He immediately transformed into his true dragon form and headed directly towards the East Sea.

The two buffaloes, however, didn't care whether Ao Guang left or not. Instead, they pressed Chen Xuan, asking why this matter was related to a Saint.

"In the Purple Cloud Palace, Grandmaster preached the Dao and selected a total of six Saints for this world. Among them is my master, Supreme Purity Tongtian.

I am here this time to find a mount for my master. Only a buffalo capable of pulling this ox cart is qualified to become a Saint's mount.

It's just a pity that you two have shallow blessings and thin fates, and can only continue to butt heads on this Liubo Mountain."

After Chen Xuan finished speaking, he waved his hand and put away the ox cart.
