Yun Mengxi and the other women obviously didn’t understand.
After He Jiajia’s explanation, Yun Mengxi instantly becomes unhappy: “Isn’t that just a Diamond gourd doll? Why do you need a female lead for writing this crap?…OK, OK, let’s eat!”
A classmates’ gathering continued until late into the night before it finally ended.
At this moment.
In the heart of Min River in Min Province, inside Lu Shan Sect’s Grand Hall, the atmosphere was eerily silent.
“Have we received any news from Chen Chaoting and the others yet?”
Someone asked.
The rest cast their eyes towards one of the “Six Children of Lu Shan”, a Taoist nun!
Despite being a woman, she was the second strongest among the “Six Children of Lu Shan”. She was a member of Li Clan in the Chen, Lin, Li branch of Lu Shan Sect. Her name was Li Shixuan.
It is said that when Li Shixuan was young, she dreamed that Li Sanniang from the “Three Ladies” taught her Daoist skills. After the spiritual aura resurfaced, she joined Lu Shan Sect at the age of 16. After eight years of practicing her craft, she became renowned in the martial world.
At 42, she entered Divine Transcendence Realm. Since then she has been seated in Lu Shan, and she hasn’t left for fifteen years.
Before Lin Chaoyang, Chen Chaoting, and Li Chaoyang left to go to Wu City, it was her who arranged it. Li Chaoying is a disciple of the Li Clan, Li Shixuan’s niece, and also her favorite disciple.
Seeing the five of them looking at her, Li Shixuan said in a deep voice: “At noon, I received a call from Chaoying. She said that she had arrived in Wu City, found Xu Yang, and that there was no Ghost King guarding him.”
“If that’s the case, with the strength of Chen Chaoting, Lin Chaoyang, and Li Chaoying, plus a protective golden armor, Xu Yang’s death is inevitable. Why hasn’t there been a response?”
Someone asked.
Li Shixuan had a slightly ominous feeling, but as the person who just spoke said, as long as the Spirits Management Bureau didn’t intervene, the success of this operation was practically guaranteed.
She pondered for a few seconds, then said: “Perhaps Xu Yang was in a busy area, and it wasn’t convenient to make a move… Let’s wait a little longer. Maybe when Chaoying and the others find an opportunity, they will take action.”
This wait…
Lasted overnight!
The atmosphere in the grand hall was becoming more and more oppressive. The six Divine Transcendence Realm masters appeared to close their eyes to rest, but they were in fact growing increasingly anxious.
At five in the morning, the “first” of the Six Children of Lu Shan spoke, “My junior sister, why haven’t we received any news yet? Why don’t you contact Chaoying to see what’s going on?”
The “first” of the Six Children of Lu Shan, known as “Qingyang”, and nicknamed “Supreme Sage Qingyang”, was at the peak of the Divine Transcendence Realm. Reportedly, his talent for Daoism was terrifying. Even before the resurgence of the spiritual aura, he was already a disciple of Lu Shan Sect.
In those days, even with the spiritual aura in decline, he had managed to practice hard and reach the seventh level of the Qi Refining Realm.
When the spiritual aura resurfaced, his cultivation made great strides forward and he became a master. Supreme Sage Qingxu, Xu Zhiyuan, lost and was injured in the fight over Dao dominance, and it was Qingyang who did it.
Li Shixuan took out her mobile phone and called Li Chaoying.
Times are different.
Even these masters use mobile phones, computers and even “Qingyang” took a driving test a few years ago…
However, there was no answer, and the cellphone gave the message “The number you have dialed is not in service”.
When she tried again, the message was “The phone number you dialed has been turned off” …which was expected since Li Chaoying had turned into ashes and naturally her phone wouldn’t have survived.
Just then.
Outside the grand hall, a “Chaoying” disciple of Lu Shan Sect rushed in, shouting: “Master, uncles, it’s awful… my brothers… they’ve had an accident!” “What?”
Li Shixuan stood up abruptly and asked: “Where did you get this information?”
The disciple had a tablet with him. He handed it to her, saying: “It’s all over the martial world forum… It’s posted by that number one paparazzi of the martial world!”
“The three ‘Chaoying’ high-level operators from the Lu Shan Sect were killed in Wu City. Will the struggle for Dao dominance between the Lu Shan Sect and the JingMing Sect restart war?”
Wu City.
Inside the villa.
When Xu Yang woke up early in the morning, he saw this post on the “martial world forum”. He clicked to view it and found that the process described in the post was the same as what he had experienced. The only difference was some of his own tactics and strategies were kept hidden.
In the post, the cause of death for the three great masters was described vaguely, only saying “Chen Chaoting held a ritual, inviting spirits from five directions and ten pathways. Unfortunately, he unintentionally invoked two Ghost Kings, was plagued by backlash, and died on the spot.”
This news undoubtedly made Xu Yang’s title of “Northwest Hammer King” once again widespread in the martial world.
The entire forum was filled with posts discussing this matter. It was no exaggeration to say that the martial world was shaken!
Xu Yang:
He seemed thoughtful.
Top paparazzi in martial world, the descendent of Baixiao Sheng?
“Why do I feel… this person is not the descendent of Baixiao Sheng as rumored in the martial world but is from the Spirits Management Bureau?”
Xu Yang frowned, what happened yesterday, he only told Wang Hou about it… and what can be certain is that there were no martial world people secretly watching at the time. The “video” that Yang Fan and others shot was also deleted by him.
Only Wang Hou could know!
“Perhaps this Top paparazzi in martial world is really a staff member or someone promoted by the Spirits Management Bureau… After all, only the Spirits Management Bureau has such strong intelligence capabilities that even knows which Grandmaster is cheating with which Daoist’s wife.”
Xu Yang quietly thought, he was just about to make a call to Wang Hou, when his phone rang.
Glancing at the incoming video call, Xu Yang couldn’t help being startled…
” Grandmaster Chengming?”
“Why did this old senior think of calling me?”
He answered the video call.
There he was, the figure of Grandmaster Chengming appeared.
He was sitting under a ginkgo tree, saying, “Xu Yang, I heard about what happened yesterday. Are you okay?”
After making small talk for a bit, Grandmaster Chengming asked about Xu Yang’s wedding date. Xu Yang said with a wry smile, “Old senior, I have to postpone the wedding. I have some issues with my eyes and I want to wait until they recover.”
“That’s just as well.”
Grandmaster Chengming turned the camera to reveal a shadow sitting under the ginkgo tree. The person had a mysterious aura spreading over his body, causing ripples in the air around him. Who else could it be if not Wang Hou?
Grandmaster Chengming said, “This young man Wang Hou came to Zongsheng Palace today to comprehend the Dao. He said he wanted to break into the realm of the Land Immortal. I was afraid that your wedding in the next few days might get in the way… Now that you’ve postponed it, we can come to your wedding together once Wang Hou finishes his retreat. We can also learn something from it!”
After ending the call.
Xu Yang went downstairs.
At the dining table, Miss Yates was also there. She didn’t go back after coming to the villa last night but decided to stay here for a few days.
Seeing Xu Yang coming down, Miss Yates said solemnly: “Xu Yang, you’re here… I just got the news that the Chiyan Ghost King is trying to find out about you. And he has sent out the word that he wants to invite spirits from all over the world to congratulate you on your wedding day!”
With her words turning, she gritted her teeth and said: “This Chiyan Ghost King is ambitious. This move is not just for you. Perhaps he wants to kill me as well… In my opinion, why don’t you postpone your wedding… Right, isn’t it popular to have a destination wedding these days?”
“You could go on a trip to get married. As long as you leave Xi Xia’s territory, it will be difficult for the Chiyan Ghost King to deal with you.”
Hearing this, Xu Yang smiled and said: “There’s no need for that. Besides, since the Chiyan Ghost King has invited the spirits to congratulate me, if I run away, won’t that be impolite?”
He paused, and said, “What’s more, this would make elder sister look bad… Elder sister, just let the Chiyan Ghost King do whatever he wants. I guarantee that I’ll have them organized nicely so they won’t be able to find fault!”
Miss Yates gave a wry smile.
Organize?
How to organize?
This guy is here to cause trouble. Even if you treat him as a guest of honor, he won’t give up easily.
However, Xu Yang was thinking about something else…
His business has now entered the Xi Xia Ghost Market, but it would be tough to expand in the future… If he could take this opportunity to capture all the powerful spirits in Xi Xia, wouldn’t all problems be solved?
