As a father, I just want to watch you live forever...

Chapter 225: Facing the Martial Saint Horse Face, My Daughter is Five Years Old [Seeking Monthly Tickets]

The spring rain is falling softly.

It hit the black tiles, making a ticking sound like the sound made when the hands of a clock are turned.

Under the eaves, Old Chen, who was brushing his teeth, suddenly stood up.

Looking over from a distance, a look of worry appeared on the old face.

Temple Guarding Office?
And he is the temple master of Daocheng Town!
You must know that the Temple Suppression Office established by the imperial court in a large avenue city not only has the purpose of suppressing strange temples, but also exists to fight against Emperor Shenzong.

Therefore, the Daocheng Town Temple Officials are definitely not an ordinary force.

It is far beyond the comparison of Jinguanfu Daocheng.

It is a real behemoth, not much worse than the authentic Qianyuan Divine Sect. Although there is a gap in foundation, the temple guardians who can be dispatched by the imperial court to Daocheng are all first-class masters.

Inside the house, Zhang Ya also came out, frowned, and hurried over.

"Ms. sir..."

Li Che raised his hand and patted her shoulder gently.

"It's okay. Master Xie wants to talk to me about something. I'll just go over there."

Li Che smiled gently.

His attitude was very gentle, without any sign of anxiety or worry.

"As a second-class guest official of the Imperial Observatory, I went to the Weird Temple to see the gods there. I followed the group, and then the Weird Temple disappeared... Maybe it was just a coincidence."

Li Che's tone was very calm as he comforted his wife.

Xie Jing looked at Li Che and couldn't help but feel admiration in his heart.

After all, most monks invited by the Temple Guardian would feel uneasy.

The Temple Suppression Division is an extremely terrifying place for the practitioners in the world. It is a force specifically responsible for dealing with strange temples. It is filled with powerful men. Although there are not many divine messengers, each of them is extremely powerful.

Once you enter the Temple Guarding Office, if something happens, you will basically be unable to escape.

Li Che's calm and composed appearance immediately dispelled Xie Jing's doubts about Li Che.

Before Xie Jing came, he did doubt Li Che.

After all, there are some coincidences.

Such a coincidence happened to Li Che?

The two strange temples where Li Che went to visit the gods both mysteriously disappeared and evaporated from the world. How could this not make people make associations?

"Thank you, sir. Let's go."

"The innocent are innocent." Li Che smiled gently, his black shirt fluttering.

Xie Jing sincerely admired him: "Please."

After patting Zhang Ya on the shoulder and telling her not to worry about her safety, Li Che and Xie Jing left Liuxiang Lane, boarded the chariot of the Zhenmiao Division, broke through the slanting spring rain curtain, and headed towards the direction of the Zhenmiao Division.

Inside the carriage, water was boiled in a charcoal stove. The water was boiling hot, soaking the tender buds of early spring. Two or three green tea tips were thrown into the teacup, and when they were rolled by the boiling water, they stretched out like a stretching body.

The transparent tea water gradually turned into a turquoise color.

Xie Jing and Li Che talked about many things, mostly about what happened in Jinguangfu City.

The two of them come from the same capital city, so they have a closer relationship with each other.

"The imperial court will dispatch a new governor-general to the Jinguang City's temple defense department. After the resonance of the temple gods, the Eight-Armed Hell Lotus Wrathful Third Prince's strange temple will probably fall into a long period of peace. If there is a riot next time, it may be a big deal..."

"Perhaps by then, I will be transferred back to Jinguang City."

Xie Jing took a sip of tea and said with a smile.

"Oh? You, the Temple Guardian, think that there will be a big riot in the Third Prince's Weird Temple in Jinguang Mansion?"

Li Che asked doubtfully.

"That's a must. Compared to the other four imperial strange temples, the Third Prince's strange temple is one of the strange temples that appeared in a relatively short period of time. Every strange temple will have a big riot..."

"That kind of riot... was called 'the return of the temple gods' by the wise and resourceful chief of the Imperial Astronomical Observatory in the capital."

"Every Si Yu Weird Temple has experienced this. Before the 'temple god sublimation', the Si Yu Weird Temple was not in great danger. Even if the divine power was infected and spread, it was still within the controllable range."

"This is also the reason why neither the Divine Sect nor the imperial court has sent any strong men to station in the Third Prince's Strange Temple. However, when the 'Temple God Returns' is activated and the Temple God revives from death, I am afraid that the Golden Light Palace will become the center of the vortex..."

"By then, there will definitely be more than one Divine Fetus God or Martial Saint descending."

Xie Jing said softly.

He leaned against the soft backrest of the carriage, a solemn look in his eyes.

"and……"

"I think the Third Prince's strange temple in Jinguang Mansion may be a little different from the other Four Emperors' strange temples..."

"I have trained in the strange palaces of the two Four Imperial Mysterious Temples in Qianyuan Dao City..."

“Whether it’s the strange temple of [Miao Dao Xian Sheng San Yan Zhen Jun] suppressed by Qian Yuan Divine Sect, or the strange temple of [Jiu Chi Dang Mo Zhu Xie Tian Peng] suppressed by the four great families of Su, Zhou, Yun and Zhong…”

"None of them is as terrifying as the strange gate of the Third Prince's strange temple."

Xie Jing held the sword, a trance-like look in his eyes.

"It was a full-moon night. I hadn't even entered the Third Prince's strange temple. I was just outside the strange fog, but I could vaguely sense... a lot of terrifying beings, as if they were wandering in a line."

“The kind of terrifying level of oppression that would make the divinity and blood in my body unable to even flow if even a little bit of it leaked out…”

“It really makes me desperate.”

Xie Jing said softly.

"I don't know if it was an illusion, but I know... it can't be fake."

Xie Jing said in a deep voice.

"However, since then, I have never seen anything like the 'Parade of the Gods' again."

"The Daocheng Town Temple Authority also sent a great master who achieved unity of heaven and man to investigate, but... nothing was gained."

"They said I might be hallucinating from practicing swordplay, but I don't think I'm wrong."

Xie Jing's voice was a little low.

He seemed to have forgotten Li Che's existence and just wanted to find someone to talk to.

Li Che fell into silence.

He couldn't help but think of the scene he saw with his Star-Picking Pupil in the strange fog.

Isn’t it somewhat similar to what Xie Jing described as the “Parade of the Gods”?

only……

It is not the gods who are paraded through the streets.

But...

Endless demons and monsters!
Li Che did not respond to Xie Jing, and even showed a bit of horror and surprise on his face.

"Thank you, sir... your words are really scary."

Li Che said.

Xie Jing was stunned and smiled bitterly.

"Master Li, just treat it as nonsense."

The wheels rumbled, the spring rain crushed the water, and the accumulated water cracked like a mirror.

The carriage arrived in front of the Zhenmiaosi Yamen, which covered a large area in Qianyuan Daocheng.

It is similar to the Temple-Towning Office in Jinguang Prefecture, or it can be said that the Temple-Towning Offices in various places have similar layouts, with towers lined up one after another.

In every pavilion, there are many gods from the temple who are handling official documents and recording information collected from all over the place.

Xie Jing led Li Che through the bluestone-paved avenue of the Zhenmiaosi government office.

Soon, they arrived at a majestic pavilion deep in the government office.

"Master Li, please."

Li Che nodded and stepped into the building.

Xie Jing clasped his fists and saluted towards the inside of the building, then closed the vermilion door.

As the door closed, it seemed as if even the light was cut off.

The main hall of the building is very large and spacious, with many bookshelves built with spiritual wood, and each bookshelf is filled with a large number of books.

Li Che took a quick look and found that they were all related to the strange temple.

"coming?"

Suddenly, a middle-aged man in a gray cloth shirt slowly walked out from behind a bookshelf.

A very elegant middle-aged man, with his black, thick, vibrant hair tied up with a rope.

He dusted the book in his hands, blowing away the dust.

He waved to Li Che cordially.

"You are Master Li Che, right?"

"sit."

The middle-aged man said with a faint smile. There was a unique feeling of calmness about him.

However, the [Dragon Elephant Vajra] Dao Fruit in Li Che's chest began to beat violently!
It was as if he was not facing an elegant and easy-going middle-aged scholar, but an extremely terrifying blood and energy monster! A terrifying flesh and blood King Kong!
Very strong, extremely powerful!
The flesh pill in Li Che's Dantian jumped violently, but he controlled the Dragon Elephant Vajra Dao Fruit to maintain the blood flow without much change.

Martial Saint?!
Is he a martial saint?!
Li Che's heart was shaken.

This middle-aged scholar in front of me is a martial saint? !

Li Che didn't know, but he had such a big reaction now...

Even You Liqing, who had three flowers on his head, didn't feel such oppression.

The middle-aged scholar was flipping through a book and seemed to notice that Li Che's attitude was a little restrained, and a strange look flashed in his eyes.

He smiled and said, "Don't be so nervous... I just came to talk to you. After all, you are a second-class guest official of the Imperial Observatory. Although you are not an official employed by the court, strictly speaking, you are also a colleague of mine."

"I am Yuwen Wenlong, one of the two general governors of Qianyuan Dao City."

Li Che sat on the wooden armchair.

"Did you know that the two strange temples you visited mysteriously disappeared?"

The middle-aged scholar asked as he flipped through ancient books.

Although his eyes did not fall on Li Che, the invisible sense of oppression was full.

Li Che shook his head.

The answer was spotless.

He believed that Yuwen Wenlong would not be able to find any clues, and as long as he did not admit it, no one would know that it was he who did it.

That’s right, isn’t it a great thing to make the strange temple disappear from the world?
Li Che never leaves his name behind when doing good things.

"The disappearance of the strange temple... isn't that a good thing?"

Li Che looks honest and upright.

In fact, Yuwen Wenlong’s powerful spiritual sense had been locked on Li Che, but he did not find anything unusual.

After a moment, Yuwen Wenlong closed the ancient book and his eyes finally fell on Li Che.

However, Yuwen Wenlong did not answer Li Che's question.

"Okay, Master Li, please go back first...Master Li was present both times when the strange temple disappeared. Maybe it was just a coincidence."

Yuwen Wenlong issued an order to expel the guests.

Li Che stood up and bowed.

"Then I wish that Lord Governor Yuwen can solve the case as soon as possible and find the culprit who caused the Weird Temple to disappear between heaven and earth."

Yuwen Wenlong smiled and nodded slightly.

When Li Che came out of the pavilion, Xie Jing was already waiting outside.

Wait until the figure disappears in the misty spring scenery.

Yuwen Wenlong, who was dressed in a grey Confucian robe, slowly broke off the gaze.

"Li Che..."

"not him."

"The aura is too weak... His body is very strong, and his cultivation is hidden, but he is only at the late stage of Grandmaster..."

"Moreover, the divinity does not have the aura of those two temple gods..."

Yuwen Wenlong tapped the table lightly with his fingers.

As for whether Li Che could hide his cultivation in front of him...

Yuwen Wenlong smiled. Having such an idea was simply an insult to his own cultivation.

He opened the book, which recorded Li Che's life starting from when he was a porter in a wood carving shop in Feilei City.

"In just four years... From being a porter in a woodcarving shop of a small aristocratic family in a small town, he grew up to become a second-class guest official of the Imperial Observatory?"

"He is good at making mechanical devices, and he also gave birth to a prodigy daughter with a purple aura of a thousand feet. She was admitted into the Divine Sect. In just four years, the father climbed from a small town to a Taoist city by relying on his daughter's status."

He took a wolf hair brush and dipped it in thick ink.

His eyes became deep, with a hint of wisdom that saw through everything.

Then he slowly wrote two words next to Li Che's name.

【Horse Face】

……

……

Xie Jing sent Li Che back to Liuxiang Lane.

"Thank you, sir. Do you know what level of cultivation the governor-general has?"

Before parting, Li Che asked curiously.

Xie Jing laughed: "Do you feel depressed and as if everything is seen through?"

Li Che nodded without comment.

Yes, that spiritual consciousness was too strong. Li Che had to leak out some of his Qi and blood through the Dragon Elephant Vajra Dao Fruit, exposing his cultivation level from the initial stage of Grandmaster to the late stage of Grandmaster.

"The Lord Governor-General has made a new advancement in martial arts... He is not inferior to the Great Divine Embryo."

Xie Jing just said this mysteriously.

Then he said goodbye and left. "If a martial artist can fight a divine fetus, then he must be a martial saint..." Li Che's eyes flickered.

This was the first time he met the Martial Saint.

It was indeed terrifying, the energy contained was so powerful, as if an avalanche equivalent to tens of thousands of Shenyuan Zhenren's divine chess pieces exploded at the same time.

And the most important thing is that Yuwen Wenlong was able to suppress all this energy in his body without leaking it, and he was able to control it successfully.

Really scary and powerful!

This was the first time that Li Che faced the Martial Saint directly. Even though the Martial Saint was in a state of truce and holding back his energy, he still felt a chill down his spine.

"I can't beat him... I can't beat him at all..."

Li Che let out a breath of foul air.

"If a newly promoted Martial Saint like Yuwen Wenlong is so terrifying, how terrifying would Ji Moli be, a vassal king who has reached the pinnacle of the Martial Saint realm and is also a Divine Embryo God?"

A strong sense of crisis suddenly enveloped Li Che's head.

Without seeing the Martial Saint, one is like a frog in a well looking at the moon.

After meeting the Martial Saint, I realized... that I had underestimated his power.

Earlier, in the strange gate of the Third Prince's strange temple, in the resonance of the temple gods, Ji Moli's martial saint will hidden in Ji Haihui's bloodline was shattered, giving Li Che the illusion that the martial saint was nothing more than this.

Li Che slapped his face.

"This world is dangerous. The previous method of watching the moon in the well is not stable enough. It must be changed."

"Any enemy must be treated with great courtesy."

After taking a look at the hazy spring scenery, Li Che turned and entered the yard.

……

……

The spring rain falling on the black tiles is like water drops falling from a copper bell, and the ticking sound between the bell breaking and shattering is continuous.

Time slowly passes by, blurred and broken by the spring rain.

Ever since that day when the temple officials took Li Che away for investigation but to no avail, Li Che no longer continued to visit the temple gods as a guest official of the Imperial Observatory.

However, Li Che did not give up on summoning the gods in the strange temple.

After all, according to Li Che's training plan, if his seven emotions divine base is to be transformed into a divine form, it would be best to do it by summoning gods from temples.

Therefore, Li Che did not give up, but found another way, choosing an extremely stable way that no one could discover.

Although Li Che no longer went to visit the temple gods, the Imperial Observatory would still organize guest officials to visit the temple gods, because only by visiting the temple gods could the level of the wood carving masters be improved.

Li Che can then hide the flying thunder chess piece on the guest official of the Imperial Observatory who is about to enter the strange temple.

After entering the strange temple, Li Che remotely controlled the flying thunder chess bullets to fall down and hide in the strange temple.

It's like planting a seed.

In addition, Li Che just kept placing chess pieces.

Like a mature and steady chess player, he keeps making moves and setting up his positions.

All of the ones he chose were Seven Yuan Strange Temples, and he hid flying thunder chess pieces in all five of them.

About half a month later, Li Che would enter the mysterious temple late at night and perform a low-key ceremony to summon the gods.

In this way, the days went on in an orderly manner.

Li Che went to Shen Diao Ridge once and asked the elders about the time of the assessment.

The first time he went there, an elder who received Li Che at the Divine Eagle Ridge almost drove him away because he was so young.

If Li Che had not taken out Jiao Shaoqiu's introduction jade pendant, the other party might not even give Li Che a chance to speak.

This also made Li Che feel the importance that Shen Diao Ridge placed on experience.

No wonder Jiao Shaoqiu said that it would be difficult for Li Che to become the elder of Shen Diao Ridge...

He needs to compete for the spot with too many woodcarving masters from all over the country, all of whom have decades or even hundreds of years of craftsmanship experience.

How many years has Li Che been learning wood carving...

Naturally, he was not favored by others, but the other party still received Li Che for the sake of Jiao Shaoqiu's token, and told Li Che that if the elders' assessment began, he would be notified in advance.

Therefore, Li Che's hope of getting a chance to enter and leave the Divine Sect in a short period of time is temporarily out of the question.

However, fortunately, Li Che was able to bring Zhang Ya to see Xixi at any time in the dead of night.

At the beginning, the plaque of Qiankun Daoyun at the mountain gate would be sensitive to Li Che's appearance and give some reaction.

In the end, the plaque of Qiankun Daoyun began to rot, allowing Li Che to come and go as he pleased.

Zhang Ya could see her daughter every day, so she didn't miss her so much. She also put more of her energy and focus on practicing martial arts and divinity.

With Li Che's abundant resources, Zhang Ya had no shortage of resources for cultivation.

Therefore, as time passed, Li Che began to immerse himself in cultivation, and his life began to become regular.

He used the generous gift from his former enemy to exchange for a piece of Five Elders Spiritual Wood, called [Blood Thunder Glazed Dragon Bone Wood], as well as a number of Six Divisions-level spiritual woods from the Imperial Observatory.

After the spiritual wood arrived, Li Che began to make the mechanical beast [Blood Sun Nine Gods King Kong Ape] from the Tang Family Mechanical Records given to him by his elder brother Tang Sanjia, the master of the Divine Eagle Ridge in Jinguan Mansion!
A sixth-order upper-level mechanical beast!

But this is definitely a huge project.

The entire mechanical beast has a total of 139,872 mechanical parts, and each part needs to be manually polished and made by Li Che.

And there are extremely high requirements for precision!
In addition, this mechanical beast also requires the arrangement of the Nine Seals of the Mechanism, which need to be driven into the parts. A total of 10,000 parts need to be driven into the Nine Seals of the Mechanism. The order cannot be wrong, and the imprints of the mechanism seals cannot be wrong.

Fortunately, Li Che has a fairy clone in the painting.

He directly activated the fairy clone in the painting and began intensive research!
In addition to studying mechanical beasts, Li Che has been obsessed with refining the Seal of the Corpse God these days.

This Corpse God Seal was beaten hard by the Ape God, but it was still very tough. It was extremely difficult for Li Che to refine it!
Somewhere in the dark, there was an invisible force that was trying to hinder his refining.

Li Che persevered and bombarded with the power of black and white every day.

Slowly, he finally pried open the cold seal of the Corpse God's Seal and began to refine Him.

Practice boxing every day, cultivate divinity, make mechanical beasts, and mark corpse gods...

Life is extremely fulfilling!

These days, Li Che has not even gone to clear out the evil people of the Corpse God Cult hiding in Qianyuan Dao City.

Because there is no need. When he finishes refining the Corpse God Seal, all the evil people of the Corpse God Cult...

Seeing him is like seeing a corpse god, oppressive from his supreme rank.

Li Che could easily suppress them.

By then, killing will be easy, and there will be no need to cause too much commotion.

The days in Daocheng were too peaceful. The huge Daocheng was like a huge machine, constantly running.

The days pass by smoothly.

After spring comes summer, and when the summer cicadas have finished singing their hearts out, autumn arrives.

The maple leaves dyed the clouds in the sky red, and a chilly chill came from the north.

Heavy snow fell from the sky.

The cold wind was blowing and it was bone-chillingly cold.

Qianyuan Daocheng, a strange seven-yuan temple under the jurisdiction of the Su family.

Li Che clenched his five fingers together, accompanied by the falling snow.

Appeared in the strange temple, the white candle flame flickered, and the flame turned into a faint green in an instant!

It was a female temple deity holding a flower basket, sitting upright on the altar, dignified yet a little bit evil.

"The God of the Temple of Sorrow..."

Li Che was wearing a bamboo hat and a Bull Demon mask on his face. He raised his hand and gently brushed away a piece of fallen snow on his black robe.

The next moment, the body suddenly swelled up, one after another, nine hideous and trembling dragon tendons bulged from the back, like the color of red-hot irons, and the exposed skin looked like fine iron that had been tempered a thousand times.

Ding, a snap of the fingers.

A crisp sound exploded, as if a thunder dragon was roaring.

A stick intertwined with flashing azure arcs of lightning kept spinning in the air and finally fell into Li Che's hands.

With a "snap" sound, it was grasped by Li Che.

Li Che held the Black Gold Eight Treasures Thunder Dragon Stick in one arm. His body was sturdy and strong, and the thick black hair under his hat began to grow wildly.

"Go upstairs!"

The divinity of the temple god was squeezed out from the divine image and merged into Li Che's body.

The temple god in the altar seemed to come alive, bursting out with terrifying murderous intent and fighting with Li Che.

The corners of Li Che's lips raised under the mask, and thirty Five Element Divine Forces surged out madly.

The shadow of the stick has bloomed like a peacock spreading its tail!

Hunyuan Qitian Stick!
The airflow was pierced and broken, and strong winds raged everywhere!

The explosive energy and blood are like a huge rock thrown into a lake, with layers of spreading air currents raging and interweaving!
A moment later, the temple god was violently dispersed by Li Che.

Using the magical power of [Summoning Gods], he was pulled into the chessboard of heaven and earth.

Rumble——! ! !
The strange temple began to shake and roar, the walls shattered, the rubble exploded, and an extremely thick green finger pierced through the strange cave and strange fog, and fiercely pointed down!

The extreme anger was like a rolling thunder!

However, Li Che had already disappeared.

Outside the strange place.

A figure appeared at an extremely fast speed, tearing through the air and landing on the edge of the surging strange lake.

Yuwen Wenlong, who looked like a Confucian scholar, had a solemn expression.

"Another one..."

"Another strange temple has disappeared from the face of the earth."

"Who is it?!"

“The sixth one!”

Yuwen Wenlong let out a breath.

The strong men of the Su family also came, and each of them looked extremely ugly.

"This is the fifth Seven Yuan Strange Temple that disappeared under the jurisdiction of my Su family!"

"Who is this person? Why are they targeting our Su family like this?!"

Yuwen Wenlong glanced at the strong men of the Su family indifferently.

"You, the Su family, please think carefully... Have you offended anyone?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Yuwen Wenlong tore through the strange fog and crashed into it. However, the divinity had become a thing of the past and the temple had long been empty.

……

……

Qianyuandaocheng, Liuxiang Lane.

In the workshop courtyard.

Li Che clenched his five fingers and returned, and the air flow was turbulent, blowing away all the snow in the yard.

"The seventh temple god... summoned successfully."

Li Che didn't even take off his hat and just sat on the ground in the yard.

"The seventh statue, the God of Sorrow, is ready!"

Li Che's mind moved.

The next moment, he raised his hand and tapped the spot between his eyebrows.

The powerful divinity like a storm surged from the center of the eyebrows and spread out!
The female temple god holding a flower basket who was suppressed on the chessboard of heaven and earth was entangled by the divine shackles and slowly pulled into the last round of the Seven Emotions Divine Base.

Originally, the female temple god wanted to resist.

But Li Che directly summoned the other six temple gods and stared at him.

The female temple god gave up struggling and chose to step into Li Che's divine base gracefully and not rudely.

The majestic divinity, as vast as the boiling rivers and lakes, surged around Li Che, causing a fierce howling wind.

Li Che slowly opened his eyes, his black robe fluttering in the wind.

The vigorous hair dances wildly.

Li Che raised his hand and pressed down hard with his five fingers.

In an instant, all the divinity returned to the ball of mud between his eyebrows, like mud sinking into the sea, without causing any ripples.

The wind stopped in the entire courtyard.

Everything became extremely quiet.

Only the pure white snowflakes fell on the roof, making muffled puffing sounds.

Li Che stretched out his hand and turned it over, with his palm facing the sky.

A piece of cold snow fell on his palm.

It was melted into clear water by his burning blood.

Li Che clenched his five fingers.

A smile appeared on the corner of his lips.

Look up...

Looking at the snowflakes falling from the sky.

I still remember that year, it snowed heavily.

He was carrying a frozen fish when he received the news that his wife had given birth.

"It's that time of year again when the sky and earth start to snow."

"My Xixi..."

"Five years old."
