For this reason, any female creature that had contact with Bu Wantian was terrified of producing another heir besides the one the feminized corpse once tried to bear.
Going so over the top, the Bu family finally ca to their senses, realizing they only wanted to leverage the Yin clan's power and covet their wealth. anwhile, the Yin family was actually plotting to take over the Bu's.
Bu Wantian wasn't the kind to sit around waiting for doom; relying on his extraordinary looks and talents, he even managed to seduce a daughter of a wealthy rchant from a nearby city.
It was with his little girlfriend's covert help—and even the use of external objects and heretical thods—that he awakened his spiritual nature.
On one side was the wealthy rchant's sole daughter, on the other, a wife who weighed over two hundred pounds and was strong and muscular. Bu Wantian voted with his feet.
As for not reporting to the authorities, he naturally wanted to finalize the marriage with the rchant's daughter as quickly as possible, to avoid complications, and then leverage the rchant's power to pressure the Yin clan into acknowledging the incident of their daughter's 'accidental drowning.'
This kind of cover-up was also quite necessary for the rchant's family.
Zuo Qianfu just happened to appear at the right ti, so naturally, he beca the green leek to be harvested.
"Hehe, did you hear that clearly? This is high-level play; you're just a naive and sweet apprentice."
"Do you take everything in those little essays as truth?"
"Qianfu, didn't I give you a thousand taels of Gold before? Why are you penniless now?"
"Ah… Master, I couldn't restrain my vigorous spirits and ended up visiting the brothels a few tis."
"Bullshit, that was a thousand taels of Gold. Did she have gold teeth or sothing?"
"Eh, Master, you don't know the half of it, that girl was in deep trouble. Listen to …"
"Better not tell , let guess—her father gambles, her mother's ill, her brother needs to study, her husband abuses and gambles, the whole family depends on her, life is as bitter as coptis root; please be more forgiving if she's not quite up to par, she hasn't been doing it for long and isn't yet skilled...."
Yi Chen covered his eyes in agony, spouting a list as if he were reciting a nu.
Damn it, Yi Chengzi was witty his whole life; how could he have such a disciple?
"Master truly is a terrestrial immortal, a noble Daoist sage, divining and calculating with ease. It's a pity Qianfu has no spiritual nature and cannot learn Master's divine arts." Zuo Qianfu imdiately looked reverential upon hearing this, "Exactly, Master, just like you described."
"Qianfu, you really are a strong ox, to have survived up to this mont."
"No matter how skilled you beco in martial arts, it's useless if you're like this. Well, I'm going to Gan You City to handle so things, and you should co with . Along the way, you can observe and learn more from your cat master."
"Miao Zi, what did you do when you were courting other little kitties?"
"Hehe, dad, I told her I had lots of little fish for her, more than she could ever eat," Miao Zi chuckled mischievously.
"How co your stock of little fish never seems to run out? You've been with so many little kitties."
"What are you talking about, dad? Those little fish are just for show, not for them to actually eat! At most, I'll feed them one piece, no more," Miao Zi said excitedly, doing sorsaults.
"See that? That's your Uncle Miao's amazing wisdom!"
"Apprentice, it's lucky you have so fortune about you. Otherwise, you'd have died a long ti ago."
Zuo Qianfu imdiately perked up with joy upon hearing this: "Master, could it be that you divined your disciple bears great fortune, and in the future, he will not be confined to diocrity?"
Yi Chen gazed at the young man before him, his eyes conveying an ineffable significance: "To have t a poor Daoist twice, Qianfu, your fortune is truly astonishing!"
"Deal with the matters at hand with Uncle Miao and wrap things up within the hour. Then, we'll all set off together."
Having said that, Yi Chen leisurely went back to roasting his fish.
Looking at the Daoist's towering figure, Zuo Qianfu felt as if he were looking up at a grand mountain. He craned his neck trying to take in the entire view, but he could only see clouds swirling around it. The mountain soared into the clouds, standing tall and transcendent!
Perhaps he would struggle his entire life to catch even a glimpse of its peak.
He knelt down resolutely and gave three heavy kowtows, declaring, "Thank you for your teachings, Master. Your disciple has no way to repay your life-saving guidance. In the future, should you command anything, your disciple wouldn't dare to disobey."
"Go, and from now on, don't be gullible. Be more shrewd," Yi Chen said, sprinkling so cumin on his fish, laughing hehe, and then wolfing down the fragrant roasted fish—bones and all.

Under the moonlight, on an unnad solitary peak, the Yuqing True King stood with his hands behind his back, staring at the bright moon on the horizon. His eyes were inscrutable, and after a long while, a dark figure slowly appeared before him.
At the sa ti, Yi Chen, having settled his business with Zuo Qianfu, soared on the wind again, speeding towards the direction of Gan You City.
One week later.
At Gan You, he also treaded the moon.
At Xi Daze, he dreamt.
It was a union of man and the Heavenly Dao.
He was the World-Shaking Pure Yang.
After several city transfers and days of rapid flight, Yi Chen finally arrived above a massive city.
"Gan You City Lord, co see without delay," he commanded.
Under the starry sky, in the official residence of Gan You City Lord, a golden token suddenly fell before the City Lord Hei Shanzi.
"Your servant greets the emissary!"
"Enough with the pleasantries. Have you discovered anything about the recent anomalies near Gan You City?"
"My lord, we have identified sixteen highly suspicious locations, among which Fairy Lake is the most likely."
"Then what are we waiting for? Dispatch soone imdiately to accompany there."
"Does the emissary not wish to rest first, perhaps proceed tomorrow?"
"Speed is of the essence in war; don't chatter!"
Under Yi Chen's orders, a squad of elite cultivators took to the skies at once.
Fiendish corpses? Deep Red Points at the forefront, he must be dealt with—Yi Chen couldn't wait a mont longer!
Under the starry night, at the bottom of Fairy Lake.
Four elderly monks sat in a row.
"Yi Chengzi commits innurable injustices; this is the punishnt of the Heavenly Dao!" one of the Warrior Monks laughed derisively at the three other monks.
