Chapter 505 Hedging
Lying on the windowsill, watching the clouds rolling in the sky, Zhang Yunling had no intention of practicing at all.

The expressions on his face were very rich, sometimes joyful, sometimes shy, sometimes angry... and most of them were sadness, which made his originally sunny and cheerful temperament completely turn into sentimental.

Suddenly, there were three knocks on the door, followed by an old voice with a helpless tone: "Yun Ling, forget it, no one wants to see you, you are wasting your time here, just come back with me."

Waving his hand to open the door, looking at the clan uncle who protected him, the worry on the face of Chunyang Taoist Zhang Yunling turned into determination: "No, I won't leave! I don't believe she can't see my sincerity! I will wait for her to come out! I will explain it clearly to her!"

Looking at this stubborn family prodigy, Dan Xizi was also helpless.

He knew that the disciples of Chunyang Sect were generally simple-minded, and because of their martial arts skills, they seldom came into contact with women. They were extremely bad at dealing with relationships between men and women, and would always suffer when they encountered emotional disasters, and it would take them a long time to get over it.

As a person at the peak of Return to Void Realm and an elder of Chunyang Palace who holds a respectable title in Taoism, he also went through this experience in the past to perfect his mind and prevent the devil from causing trouble when he was promoted.

But, I wasn’t so stubborn back then!
The reason why it took me nearly a hundred years to get over it was because my fellow Taoist and I loved each other, had a mutual understanding, and had gone through many tests of life and death, supporting each other for a full sixty years.

Having established such a deep relationship, it was difficult to cut off the emotional ties. After another thirty years, he finally saw through the truth that the Great Dao is mental. He knew that only by devoting himself to the Great Dao wholeheartedly could he have the opportunity to be in harmony with the Great Dao and achieve true longevity. Only then did he end the relationship with great difficulty, devoted himself to the Great Dao, and prepared to be in harmony with the Great Dao.

But what about this family prodigy? She has clearly said that she is not interested in you! She doesn't even like you, and you are alone in this unrequited love, what kind of love disaster is this?
With your talent and status, what kind of noble lady can't you find? Why waste your time on someone who doesn't like you?

Unfortunately, Dan Xizi had tried similar persuasions countless times, but this Chunyang Taoist refused to budge and was unwilling to leave the Golden Buddha Brahma City. He spent the whole day lying by the window and spying on the cave opposite, and even slacked off in his usually diligent practice.

However, he couldn't take him away by force at this time. Although he was his elder and his strength was much higher than his, he was the eldest son of the eldest wife, with extraordinary talent and noble status. When he reported it back, the family would just say "let him go". It was obvious that they didn't care about letting this prodigy of the family suffer a lesson and wasting precious time.

There is no other way but to persuade him from time to time, hoping that he won't fall too deeply into it.

However, to be honest, the mysterious Fairy Lu was indeed extraordinary. Her unique temperament was indeed very attractive, making it difficult for people to look away. Even a person like me who had always been calm had some ripples in my heart, which took me a long time to suppress. It was understandable that Yun Ling fell into it...

Suddenly, Zhang Yunling on the opposite side's eyes lit up, he jumped up instantly, and his whole body turned into a ray of white light, shooting straight into the distance.

You don’t have to guess to know that it must be the Fairy Lu who has come out of seclusion!

There was nothing to say, Dan Xizi performed his duty, became invisible in an instant, and secretly guarded him.

Fairy Lu seldom comes out of seclusion, usually only once a month. She takes her companions to high-end vegetarian restaurants to eat and drink, and then accompanies her companions to buy some materials for alchemy. She lives a simple life.

Just like the previous times, Zhang Yunling followed Fairy Lu into the restaurant and immediately put aside his dignity and began to pursue her:
"Xiao Mao'er, I have sent back the message about the Taiyin Sect's skills that I told you about last time. My family has agreed to send a copy over. It should be delivered in two months."

"There are also magic weapons from the Taiyin Sect. My Chunyang Dao Palace has stored quite a few of them. The sect has also agreed to send someone to deliver a Wangshu Feather Robe. It's a fifth-level one. I heard it's very, very beautiful. Wearing it while dancing under the moon will give you a chance to receive the blessing of the Taiyin!"

"I don't mean any other purpose. I'm not forcing you to practice! Just take it and try it out. I heard that you have very good luck. What if you find a secret place with abundant Taiyin spiritual energy? Maybe you can easily master it."

"Thunder is too fierce. It doesn't suit your temperament at all. Besides, I heard that the people who practice thunder magic in the Five Thunder Sect have very bad tempers. The guy named Xie who came to participate in the competition this time seemed to have damaged his brain from practicing martial arts. He even lost his memory. He looks very dangerous!"

"Don't worry, I have no other intentions. I'm not forcing myself to pursue you. I just want to stay by your side and protect you. Really! I...well...I just can't bear to leave you. I really do..."

After talking for a long time, Fairy Lu finally spoke: "I am very safe here. I have the protection of the three families. I don't think there will be any danger. I have no intention of leaving recently."

"To be honest, I can see that you are not a bad person, and your feelings seem sincere, but you also know that feelings cannot be forced. I have no plans to find a Taoist partner for the time being. Now I just want to ascend to the Divine Transformation stage as soon as possible."

"However, I do have a problem recently. Um... I originally wanted to ask Fanmen for help, but I have already troubled others a lot, so I really can't ask... Um... Can I trust you?"

"Of course! Of course! I promise to solve your problem!" Zhang Yunling was excited and nodded rapidly: "Believe me!"

"This is what happened..." Fairy Lu began to explain: "You should also know that I was born in the Fairy Lotus Sect in the Sea of ​​Tears, which is located on the border between humans and demons. In other words, I am one of the founders of the Fairy Lotus Sect. I have always been committed to the peaceful coexistence of humans and demons..."

"However, recently there was news from the Xianlian Sect that a group of demon cultivators were stirring up trouble in the Sea of ​​Tears, committing countless murders and attacking the Xianlian Sect several times. After all, the Xianlian Sect is only a sixth-tier sect, and I heard that there are many demon cultivators who have returned to the Void Stage. I am a little worried about them, and I would like to ask someone to go over and take a look, and help deal with those demon cultivators."

"No problem! No problem at all!" Zhang Yunling agreed without thinking: "My Chunyang Dao Palace and the demon cultivators are irreconcilable! Not to mention the demon cultivators, I'm not afraid of even the demons! I'll help you go to that Sea of ​​Tears area right away and kill all those demon cultivators!"

"Then I'll leave it to you." Fairy Lu's voice was soft and gentle, like feathers caressing the chest, making people feel numb.

"Don't worry! Wait for me to come back!" Zhang Yunling's face regained its sunny and cheerful look, his whole body full of fighting spirit, as if burning, countless times more intense than during the previous Tianjiao Competition.

After returning to the cave where they were temporarily renting, Dan Xizi immediately showed up with a serious expression: "You agreed too hastily! How can the Returning Void Demon Cultivators be so easy to deal with? They are all old demons with many years of experience! Every one of them has a lot of trump cards? The means to save their lives are endless, otherwise they would have been eliminated by us long ago!"

"Moreover, this group of demon cultivators must have heard the news that Fairy Lu won the championship, so there is a high probability that there are not only demon cultivators! There are also demons! How can the demons who dare to come to the territories of humans and demons be easy to deal with? They are all cruel! Not to mention you, a newly promoted god, even if I protect you, I dare not guarantee that I can bring you back safely!"

Zhang Yunling shook his head gently with unparalleled self-confidence: "Of course I know this! But I have to take care of this matter! I can't let little Subaru be sad! I'm not a fool who wants to commit suicide. I've thought about it, and I really can't do it alone. I will go back to the sect once, ask my master for help, and then ask a few uncles and cousins ​​to help, and we will definitely be able to destroy this group of evil cultivators!" "Will they help you?" Dan Xizi was a little unconvinced.

"Uncle Master, have you ever had a Taoist partner?" Zhang Yunling changed the subject.

"We were married, but we've separated." Dan Xizi told the truth: "After all, you know that if you want to achieve harmony with the Tao, you must overcome the calamity of love."

"Which sect does your Taoist partner belong to?" Zhang Yunling asked again.

"She is from Kuishui Sect. Now...she should be the Grand Elder." Dan Xizi laughed at himself: "I don't know who will be able to merge with the Tao first, me or her."

"Then it's normal that you don't understand." Zhang Yunling shrugged. "I don't know about the others. Xiao Mao'er may be the only one with a Taiyin Yin body in the entire cultivation world. My master will definitely help. I remember that there are also several uncles in the clan who have married Taiyin Sect disciples, and several mothers are also Yuexia Beauty. For the sake of incense and affection, I think they will all be willing to help."

"You have even thought of this?" Dan Xizi was a little surprised.

"Of course! Since I promised Xiao Subaru, I will definitely do it beautifully!" Zhang Yunling was filled with murderous intent: "Now I only regret that I was born too late! If I was born when the Taiyin Sect was still there, I would definitely fight to the death! I will also help Xiao Subaru to save the Taiyin Region!"

Dan Xizi suddenly felt that the nephew in front of him, whom he had been taking care of for more than ten years, was a little strange.

Is this the attraction that Taiyinzi has for Chunyang Daozi? Is this the fighting spirit that is born from the harmony of yin and yang?
This kind of courageous and vigorous spirit, which dares to break through the sky, is so brave and vigorous.

Shouldn't one have this kind of momentum when pursuing the great way?

Yes, I have been advising him to let go and cut off his emotional ties, but I forgot that those Chunyang disciples who found disciples of the Taiyin Sect as their Taoist partners did not need to go through the tribulation of love!
……

After finishing his meal, Lu Ang returned to the cave. As soon as he sat down cross-legged, three shadows of the Hedao appeared in front of him.

However, they were not the three before, but three new ones, namely, the Dragon-Subduing Arhat of the Great Vajra Temple, Wei Liaozi of the Confucian military lineage, and Ziwei Taoist of the East Emperor Palace. They were all famous and powerful masters of the Hedao realm.

It is said that they are also one of the most supreme military forces under the Mahayana of the three great sects. Each of them has an amazing record of battle and has killed countless demons and monsters.

This is also the most important reason why Lu Ang's clone dare not move around and dare not return to the Xianlian Sect for the time being. With these three great figures around, the clone is almost transparent.

The most senior Ziwei Daojun spoke first: "How do you know what happened in the Sea of ​​Tears?"

Lu Ang did not answer, but changed the subject: "It's been almost a year, how is your contact with the Phoenix Clan going? When will you rescue my Taoist partner's people?"

"This matter is not as simple as you think." The Dragon-Subduing Arhat shook his head. "Although our relationship with the demon race is average, we can still discuss other things. But you should know that races like dragons and phoenixes have always had difficulty giving birth and have a small population. The entire tribe may not have new members born for thousands of years. This time, they finally gave birth to a pure-blooded offspring by accident, but it was eaten by someone. How can they let it go so easily?"

Wei Liaozi also explained: "We have been trying to communicate with the Phoenix Clan, and have even given them a lot of natural treasures, but they are still holding on tightly and have no intention of letting us go. Of course, we are still trying. After all, the Phoenix Clan is not a monolithic entity. We are trying to get the Fairy Phoenix Clan, the Ice Phoenix Clan, and the Colorful Phoenix Clan to help intercede for the Fire Phoenix Clan, but it takes time."

"That's fine." Lu Ang shrugged. "Anyway, you have verified the "Original Vow Merit Sutra". I will give you the last three levels after you rescue the people. As for the doomsday world, it depends on when you can solve it. Anyway, I am still young and I am not in a hurry to use the merits."

The three Hedao looked at each other, but their faces showed nothing.

"I have also heard about the events in the Sea of ​​Tears. It seems that the demon cultivators are indeed causing quite a stir." Wei Liaozi continued to delve deeper into the topic: "Some people have also witnessed the appearance of demons. I am afraid that it is not enough for you to entrust such a matter to a mere Pure Yang Daozi in the Spiritualization Stage."

"How about this, we send people over to help you drive out those demon cultivators and demons and protect your Xianlian Sect." The Dragon-Subduing Arhat smiled kindly, "How about you give us the last three levels of the Sutra of Original Vow and Merit in advance? We can deal with the doomsday world after we rescue the people there."

"What's the point of just expelling them?" Lu Ang shook his head, noncommittal: "Even if you expel them, they will come back. Your people can't stay in the Sea of ​​Tears forever, and the demons may not agree. I think it's better to kill them all, kill all the demon cultivators and demons in the Sea of ​​Tears, and scare them all at once, so as to fundamentally solve the problem."

"That's fine too." Daoist Ziwei nodded, "But, I heard that there are two Return to Void Dragon Kings in the Immortal Lotus Sect, and humans and demons live together in the Sea of ​​Tears, so why don't you let them attack the demons?"

As expected of you, you are the Taoist Master. You hit the nail on the head with just one question.

"What do you think is the relationship between humans and demons?" Lu Ang chose to change the subject: "Are they enemies? Or partners?"

"It's very simple. They are enemies that have temporarily put aside their hatred and partners that must unite together." Ziwei Daojun answered very officially: "After all, the demons are the biggest enemy now. Only by uniting can the two races survive."

"That's right. This is also the relationship between me and the two dragon kings." Lu Ang explained: "Whether to ask the demon tribe to take action is up to them, not me. However, from what we can see now, they don't seem to have any intention of going back to ask for help."

"I've already given you the first six floors, so the last three floors aren't that important. How about this? I'll give it to the one among you three families who has killed more demon cultivators and demons first. How do you think?"
