Chapter 44 - 43: Weren’t you the one who joked with me first?
It was already dusk.
The golden sunset glow reflected on the locust trees in the courtyard, the reflected light slightly dazzling.
He walked out of the room.
As he came out, he ran into Yang Ying with a file bag in her hand.
“Eh, Daoist Priest, have you come out of seclusion?”
Xuanqing nodded slightly, then looked at the file bag in Yang Ying’s hand, and asked curiously, “What is this…?”
“Oh, these documents?” Yang Ying smiled faintly and explained, “These are some documents for our Taoist temple.”
After she spoke.
She handed over the file bag in her hand.
“Oh? Let me see?”
He opened the file bag, and there were five or six stacks of neatly arranged documents inside.
“Road Construction Application Form, Daoist Temple Flow Building Plan, Accidental Event Handling Guide…”
He skipped the Road Construction Application Form and took our rhe Daoist Temple Flow Building Plan and Accidental Event Handling Guide.
After browsing a few pages briefly.
Xuanqing immediately lost interest.
However.
Since others have worked so hard, even if he is nor interested, he has to encourage them.
“You did a good job. I ll treat you to porridge tonight!” Xuanqing patted Yang Ying on the shoulder and said.
“Thank you, Daoist Priest!”
Yang Ying’s eyes brightened, and she immediately bowed her thanks.
Afterward.
It seemed like she remembered something and asked in a serious tone: “Daoist Priest, about rhe guide for handling accidental events, there’s one thing I need your decision.’1
“You still remember the incident when that young man with the camera was… um… self-mutilated by you a few days ago, right?”
Xuanqing nodded his head.
How could he forget that? That wicked man had even fertilized the soil under the locust tree.
“Daoist Priest, as our Taoist temple’s and your fame grows, there are definitely many people who come here specifically to latch onto our popularity.”
“If every time they self-mutilate, I’m afraid it will have a certain negative impact.”
Yang Ying paused here, then continued: “I have a suggestion that may not completely eliminate this situation, but it can avoid most of them.”
“Let s hear it!”
Xuanqing asked with great curiosity.
According to his character, anyone who came to cause trouble would not be able to stand leaving Qingping Mountain.
“Daoist Priest, we can set a limitation that anyone who wants to challenge you for a fight to enjoy the heat must pay a challenge fee of one million.”
“If they win, you give them two million. If they lose, they lose one million,” Yang Ying said with determined eyes.
The reason for making such a suggestion is that she has absolute confidence in her own Daoist Priest. How could those ordinary people be a match for a Daoist Priest who is a martial arts master?
Upon hearing this suggestion.
Xuanqing laughed.
Although this proposal was a bit crude, if it were really implemented, it would indeed avoid most of those who wanted to take advantage of the popularity of the clowns.
At least… you have to have one million for the challenge fee!
However.
He never cared about money, let alone now that he was pursuing rhe Great Dao.
“There is no need to set up a bet. If they want to challenge me, let them donate one million in charity… well, donate it to Hope Elementary School.”
Xuanqing waved his hand and said lightly.
“Hope Elementary School… Alright, I’ve noted it down.” Yang Ying nodded and then asked again:
“I also registered a public account for our Taoist temple and built a website. Do you want to have a look to see if there are any changes needed?”
“No need, no need, just arrange it as you see fit.” Xuanqing waved his hand repeatedly, he had no interest in these matters at all.
“I have some things to do and will leave the Taoist temple for a while. All these mundane matters don’t need to be asked. Just do your best!”
After saying that.
Xuanqing left the Taoist temple without looking back.
This moment.
Looking at the Daoist Priest s graceful departing figure, Yang Ying felt deeply moved.
“Daoist Priest trusts me so much, I must work even harder!”
Yang Ying’s eyes turned slightly red.
She remembered when she worked at the television station, her small suggestions would be rejected by her supervisors, and she had no autonomy in her daily life.
Comparing that to Daoist priest Xuanqing, who gave her so much authority, although… it might be because he finds it troublesome.
But Yang Ying would rather believe that it was the Daoist Priest s trust in her.
Leaving the Taoist temple.
Xuanqing glanced around.
“Condense fog into clouds!”
As rhe mana within his body surged, a mist began to gather. When the concentration reached a certain level, it transformed into an immaculate, auspicious cloud.
With a light touch of his toes.
Xuanqing jumped onto the cloud and, in the process, effortlessly activated the Light Body technique to land securely on the cloud.
With a thought.
A yellow talisman appeared in his hand, which he then stuck to his chest.
The next moment.
The yellow talisman flashed, and a miraculous thing happened.
Xuanqing’s body began to change color, becoming lighter and lighter until it blended with the surroundings.
Invisibility talisman!
A low-level talisman that has a similar effect to optical camouflage, only changing one’s color. It couldn’t deceive a dog’s nose but was enough to fool human eyes.
“This talisman, insignificant in the GameWorld, turns out to be quite useful in the real world!” Xuanqing smiled slightly.
“Controlling Wind!”
A whirlwind surged, and the auspicious cloud soared into the sky like a swift sword.
About an hour later.
Ch angling City.
At a height of a thousand meters, layers of clouds loom, emitting beautiful sunsets under the setting sun.
On one unremarkable cloud.
Xuanqing stood with his hands clasped behind his back.
t he fierce Gang Wind in the high altitude caused his Taoist robe to flap loudly. If not for the Refining Essence into Qi, his body would not withstand the altitude’s climate after rebuilding his muscles and bones.
Finding a remote place.
The next moment.
The auspicious cloud vanished.
Under the effect of his Light Body technique, Xuanqing’s transparent body descended to the secluded alley on rhe ground like a parachute.
Jade Wholesale Market.
A young man dressed in a Taoist robe and gait appeared.
“Boss, how much is this nephrite?”
“Ah, hello, young Daoist Priest. This jade is Hetian Jade Seed Material from the border region. If you’re really interested, you can give me this amount…”
“If you think it’s expensive, go online and search for yourself. This is the wholesale price.” The Fatty Boss waved his five short fingers.
Xuanqing raised an eyebrow and asked: “Five yuan?”
“Right, it’s five hundred… Did you say five yuan? Daoist Priest, are you kidding?” Fatty Boss’s face fell.
“Kidding? I think you’re the one kidding! ”
Xuanqing shook his head.
He swiped his hand across the jade items on the stall. There were more than thirty pieces of large and small white jade, which looked smooth and greasy with some semblance of seed material.
However, upon closer inspection, one could find various impurities within the jade.
“Don’t pretend your mountain material is seed material. Give me a fair price, and I ll take all your stuff..”
