[ The great thing about being an all-knowing omnipotent is the fact that there really isn't a need for an alternative form of transportation. He descends, as most mortals would never be able to experience, just as time is still a tough concept for them to understand. Luckily, there isn't a need for them to - not with Kaguya on their side, to guide them. Taigong Wang would (and that's a big "would") consider himself a Mystic with similar ideals as Kaguya, but as it stands, she's a hero. Taigong Wang knows better than that - he's no hero, especially not for the sake of humanity.
Now the idea of being an omnipotent and all-knowing is nice and swell, but there's a vital lapse Taigong Wang noticed the moment he stepped foot on this human realm (as opposed to the Human Realm) --
He's no longer a Mystic.
Which means that he isn't omnipotent, he does need to reconsider how time works (Kaguya, he senses, isn't here), and finally, he does have to think about an alternative form of transportation. Well, he doesn't have to, technically, but seeing all these red "automobiles" does make him wonder how it compares to teleportation.
The answer is obvious, quite honestly, but what teleportation doesn't have is a spectacular trail of black smoke, just like the one before him. He could have mistaken the vehicle for a wheel-harboring devil, but it's quite obvious a human operating it. He cants his head to the side, the hand not holding his fishing rod waves the smoke clear from his sight. And it's when the coughing man emerges from the smoke that Taigong Wang realizes who he's dealing with. ]
Haha, if it isn't Zhong Hui... A man hailed from the era of the Three Kingdoms, attempting operation on a machine that is nearly two millennia ahead of your time... I thought you'd know better than that.
[ It's more than two millennia ahead of Taigong Wang's time, as a matter of fact, but that's precisely why he hasn't given it a whirl. Not that he would have much trouble learning, quite frankly. It may no longer be a Mystic, but he is still all-knowing.
Except for the fact that he doesn't know whether or not this Zhong Hui would recognize him. ]
I don't suppose you are in need of assistance?
[ Not that he can help all that much. Despite it all, he still isn't a hero. ]
