Chapter 302: Chapter 213: Solving the Problem from the Root! (Seeking Subscription)
“Xu Yang, what’s wrong with you?”
Outside.
Wang Hou saw Xu Yang “daydreaming” and quickly asked, secretly sending a voice ssage: “Is it the evil dragon causing trouble? If so, blink at .”
Xu Yang snapped out of it and shook his head.
But he couldn’t help but complain inwardly…
Is this a joke?
You are a flood dragon, a so-called evil dragon from legends. Shouldn’t you be tall, mighty, and fierce when you transform into a human form?
Even if not fearso, there’s no need to look so adorable, right?
At least 2,000 years old, looking like a porcelain doll or a little white rabbit, with a youthful face and a figure no worse than Yun ngxi’s, is simply… amazing!
Wang Hou didn’t know what was happening in Xu Yang’s sea of consciousness.
He couldn’t see the existence of the “little snake.”
Moreover, Xu Yang only devoted a little bit of his spiritual power to communicate with the “little snake” in his sea of consciousness, which didn’t affect his “chat” with Wang Hou. The reason he was “daydreaming” just now was because he saw the appearance of the “little snake” transford into a human form.
Since he was sure the “evil dragon” wasn’t an imdiate threat, Wang Hou didn’t dwell on the issue too much.
He said, “This ti, during the military exercise in Min Province, I took a detour to Lu Shan Sect.”
Xu Yang’s eyes flickered, and he suddenly looked up at Wang Hou!
He had always wanted to go to Lu Shan Sect, but he knew that with his current strength, it would be difficult to survive after entering Lu Shan Sect!
That’s because Wang Hou had told him during their first eting that Lu Shan Sect was not as simple as it seed on the surface. They had hidden experts in their “cave dwelling,” possibly even Daoist True Monarchs!
Xu Yang rembered asking back then whether Jingming Sect also had hidden experts.
If Jingming Sect had them, why did they end up in such a miserable state after losing the battle for the lineage?
It turned out…
Jingming Sect didn’t have hidden “experts”!
Not to ntion hidden “experts”, Xu Yang didn’t even find a “cave dwelling” at Xishan Wanshou Palace!
No, that’s not right!
Xishan Wanshou Palace was ranked as the twelfth cave dwelling and the third blessed land among the 36 cave dwellings and 72 blessed lands of Da Xia… This ant there should be a “cave dwelling,” so had he just not discovered it?
This “cave dwelling” was the foundation of a clan or family’s inheritance. Whether a clan or family could survive for thousands of years depended on whether they had control over the “cave dwelling.”
With thoughts flashing through his mind, Xu Yang asked, “Did Minister Wang find out the specifics of Lu Shan Sect?”
Wang Hou nodded, saying, “The entire Lu Shan Sect is covered by a Daoist formation. They have been cultivating here for countless years, and have long since refined the power of the geomantic on of the whole mountain. The person controlling the formation can borrow the power of the geomantic on to unleash even greater strength!”
Xu Yang nodded, saying, “Even an ordinary Mountain God or Water God can achieve this. It’s not difficult for Lu Shan Sect, with its extensive resources, to control the power of the geomantic on of a mountain after cultivating for over a thousand years.”
Wang Hou continued, “Besides, there are four Daoist True Monarchs within the cave dwelling of Lu Shan Sect!”
Xu Yang’s face darkened.
Four Daoist True Monarchs?
It seed that there were so restrictions on them in the current world; otherwise, they couldn’t co forward like Grandmaster Chengming, and…
How could there be a way for him to survive?
How could they allow Wang Hou to be so arrogant?
Seeing Xu Yang’s face change, Wang Hou laughed, “Feeling the pressure?”
Xu Yang nodded.
Wang Hou then said, “With pressure cos motivation… To be honest, I don’t like the way Lu Shan Sect operates either. Unlike orthodox Daoist schools, they evolved from witchcraft and evil practices. Although they have whitewashed themselves now, so inherited traits from their roots won’t change!”
“It’s just a pity… My strength was too weak back then, and the Spirits Managent Bureau was still developing. I couldn’t stop the competition for the Daoist lineage… If not for that, your grandfather, if he were still alive, would undoubtedly be a Spirit Refining Realm Daoist practitioner by now. It wouldn’t be difficult for him to reach the Divine Realm in the future.
Wang Hou had ntioned before.
He knew the old man and had even exchanged ideas with him, considering each other “ageless friends.”
The old man only ca into contact with “Daoist skills” during the early stages of the spiritual awakening. He was middle-aged when he started practicing Daoism, yet his talent was so strong that he skyrocketed after getting in touch with Daoist skills. Within just twelve years, he reached the Divine Transcendence Realm.
Wang Hou also began practicing martial arts during the early awakening of spiritual energy. He was only sixteen-years-old at the ti, so being “ageless friends” was quite fitting.
Not being able to prevent the “competition for the Daoist lineage” wasn’t entirely Wang Hou’s fault.
After all, Wang Hou was not that strong back then, and the Spirits Managent Bureau was still developing. They had to rely on “agreents” to maintain order in the martial world. It wasn’t like now, when Wang Hou had beco a Land Immortal and could roam the world fearlessly under the condition that those hidden in their cave dwellings, the “undying old fellows,” couldn’t erge!
Moreover, he had the backing of Da Xia.
If soone really dared to go against him, he could throw a few Dongfeng Express deliveries at them.
Wang Hou patted Xu Yang’s shoulder, laughing, “Young people need pressure to have motivation. You are now in the late stage of Entering Dao Realm with a powerful flesh body that rivals a peak martial grandmaster. Plus, you’ve cultivated the Daoist flying sword. You are already considered a top expert in Da Xia, and with your talents, it’s not difficult to overco Lu Shan Sect.”
Xu Yang forced a bitter smile, saying, “There are four old True Monarchs in Lu Shan Sect, plus they can borrow the power of the local geomantic on… It seems I have to cultivate to a higher realm. In the short term, it looks like there’s no hope.”
Wang Hou said, “A gentleman’s vengeance is not too late in ten years… Besides, it has been 20 years since the competition for the Daoist lineage. Waiting a few more years doesn’t really matter.”
A few years?
The corner of Xu Yang’s mouth twitched!
I’m almost 23…
Wait a few more years, wouldn’t I be almost 30?
I will be old by then; what’s the point in seeking revenge!
Obviously.
Minister Wang misunderstood Xu Yang’s aning. What Xu Yang ant by “short-term” was within half a year…
Minister Wang, on the other hand, might have thought it was eight or ten years.
Xu Yang was too lazy to explain further and said, “I have now reclaid my ancestral holand of the Jingming Sect and killed three Divine Transcendence Realm masters from the Lu Shan Sect. I have also killed more than 30 Enter Dao Realm masters… I’ve collected so interest, so the remaining debts are not urgent… but there is one thing that I need to do as soon as possible.”
“What is it?”
Minister Wang asked.
“The Asura Sect!”
Xu Yang sighed and smiled bitterly, “Minister Wang, I don’t mind telling you this embarrassing story… Ever since I found out that I was on the Asura Sect’s hit list, I have been living in fear, unable to eat, sleep, or even go to the public restroom without checking for assassins using my spiritual power.”
“Even when eating out… I have to let my zombie wife eat first, in case the food has been poisoned.”
Minister Wang was surprised, “Why would you let your zombie wife eat first? That’s too cruel, making your own wife taste for poison.”
Xu Yang: “Zombies are not afraid of poison, Minister Wang. Didn’t you know?”
“Ah, so that’s why zombies are not afraid of poison.”
Minister Wang said, “I really didn’t know that. In my cultivation, I’ve only encountered two zombies, and I killed them both with one slap. I didn’t study them in depth… I can understand your feelings, though. When I was on the Asura Sect’s hit list, I was also scared for a while.”
He bitterly smiled, “But there’s no way around it. The Asura Sect is a disgusting force, like a stubborn plaster, that’s nearly impossible to shake off. As long as you continue to improve your cultivation and make it difficult for their stronger assassins to kill you, you should be fine… Once you beco invincible, they won’t chase after you anymore.”
“That’s indeed one way, but it’s too troubleso.”
Xu Yang said, “Minister Wang, I have a better solution that would completely eliminate future trouble!”
Minister Wang: “What is it?”
“Cut the weeds and dig out the roots!”
Xu Yang said seriously, “If we eradicate the Asura Sect, kill and cripple all the assassins they’ve trained, and capture their entire high-ranking mbers, there would be no one left to kill us.”
Minister Wang: “…”
He thought for a mont and then silently gave a thumbs up, saying, “That is indeed a good idea… But we don’t know the location of the Asura Sect’s headquarters. My Spirits Managent Bureau has been unable to find it, and the spies I sent in have not responded.”
“Moreover, the Asura Sect has ties with humans, monsters, devils, Yin spirits, evil gods, and even many clans, families and foreign countries and regions. It won’t be easy to destroy the Asura Sect.”
Xu Yang laughed, “I already know the general location of the Asura Sect’s headquarters. If we search carefully, we should be able to find it… As for the forces that collaborate with the Asura Sect, they just want to use them to eliminate their enemies. If the Asura Sect really faces a life-and-death situation, those forces will likely be too busy clearing their own nas to help.”
After a pause, he added, “Minister Wang, you are a Land Immortal with countless experts in the Spirits Managent Bureau. Plus, my wives and I have so skills too. If we all work together, there will be hope in eradicating the Asura Sect… Even if we can’t destroy them completely, a counterattack would at least help vent so anger.”
“If we can truly find the location of the Asura Sect’s headquarters, I am certain that we can take them down… even if it ans sending them a Dongfeng Express!”
Upon hearing this, Minister Wang’s face lit up, and he asked, “When do we take action?”
“No rush.”
Xu Yang said, “I have to go back to Wu City first, and try to break through to the Divine Transcendence Realm in seclusion… I’ll contact Minister Wang after that.”
Just you wait!
Minister Wang silently scoffed and criticized him!
As a late-stage Enter Dao Realm cultivator, Xu Yang’s current understanding of Dao is not complete yet… Even the strongest “Thunder Dao” barely ets the threshold of the “Divine Transcendence Realm.” Achieving divine transcendence is still a long way off!
For other Dao cultivators at Xu Yang’s level, a breakthrough would normally take at least eight to ten years or even a lifeti!
Of course.
Xu Yang cannot be assessed by the usual standards!
But even so… wouldn’t it take at least one year or so?
No matter how much he wanted to criticize, there were so things he couldn’t say out loud. Minister Wang laughed, “If that’s the case, I’ll patiently await the good news.”
It was now noon.
Xu Yang had been in a coma for three days, without eating a single grain of rice. He and Minister Wang had lunch together before he brought Yun ngxi to Wanshou Palace.
Gathering his disciples, Xu Yang said, “I’m going back to Wu City today. You all must practice diligently and not taint the Jingming Sect’s legacy… Li Yuanchang has my contact information. If there’s anything, you can either find Chi Wenji or contact .”
Xu Yang flew to Gan Province on August 3.
At noon on August 4, his primordial spirit entered the Eight-Angle Well, and he fell into a coma for three days… Today was already August 7.
At 10 p.m.
The plane landed.
Xu Yang and Yun ngxi left the airport and hired a private car to return to Wu City.
On their way back ho, Yun ngxi said, “Husband, I didn’t tell my sisters about your coma because I didn’t want them to worry about you… After we return, you must be careful not to reveal anything. Otherwise, they will definitely bla !”
“I didn’t expect my wife to be so thoughtful!”
When they arrived at the villa, it was already 11:40 p.m.
Yue Qiluo, Yue Yuluo, Liu Shishi, and Yang Yin were all there. Knowing Xu Yang would be arriving, the four won had even prepared a late-night al for him.
After finishing the al…
What happened next is better left unsaid.
Absence makes the heart grow fonder, after all!
Only after daybreak, Xu Yang had breakfast, went to the funeral store, checked on Ma Xiaotiao’s cultivation, and then returned ho. He said, “My wives, I’m planning to go into seclusion to try breaking through to the Divine Transcendence Realm. Since it might cause so disturbances, I decided to go to a mountain for the process.”
Yue Yuluo asked worriedly, “Husband, when will you be back? Do you want to take care of you?”
“No need to bother.”
Xu Yang smiled and pinched Yue Yuluo’s cheek, “Breaking through to the Divine Transcendence Realm is just a trivial matter. I’ll try to be back tonight.”
