From a Zhengyi Taoist Child to a Master of All Laws

Chapter 182: Planning Yatagarasu

After a magnificent performance of "Bai Yu Jing", the atmosphere of the Wanxiang evening party had reached its climax. The party continued and Baiyun Mountain no longer dominated the show. Li Yang and Chi Yanhong sat in their seats and chatted with Qi Qiansu and Mr. Xie who came in later.

Later, Jin Ying asked to go on stage to demonstrate her skills, but she kept looking towards Li Yang, not trying to hide her look as a little fangirl.

Li Yang didn't feel anything, but his disciple Zhu Ling couldn't help it and took the initiative to go on stage to fight with Jin Ying.

Jin Ying looked at Zhu Ling, then looked at Li Yang below the stage: "Are you Master Li's disciple?"

Zhu Ling nodded. It was the first time she was on stage and being watched by so many people, and she was obviously a little nervous.

A trace of regret flashed across Jin Ying's face, but she quickly concealed it.

"You are only a Qi master, you are no match for me. Go down and don't embarrass your master."

"Don't underestimate me, I'm very strong, come on!"

Zhu Ling had a cold face and put on a serious attitude.

This was the first time that Li Yang's disciple appeared in front of the Taoist Alliance. Everyone had heard that Li Yang had accepted a disciple during the spiritual energy exploration, and they looked at Zhu Ling with a little more scrutiny.

Jin Ying stopped trying to persuade her upon seeing this, and a silk ribbon in her hand fluttered out.

This is the unique magic of Qianyuan Temple. Most of the Taoists in Qianyuan Temple are female Taoists, and their weapons are basically magical instruments such as whisks and silk ribbons.

To everyone's surprise, Zhu Ling, who only had Qi-drawing ability, fought Jin Ying to a standstill. Although he was in a disadvantageous position, he would not be defeated for a while.

Everyone could see clearly that every time Jin Ying's silk ribbon was about to touch Zhu Ling, it would be bounced away by an unknown force.

Zhu Ling's Yinshan technique has not been perfected yet. Many Taoist priests below the stage could not see any clues. Only a few innate masters could see the clues, but they were not sure.

The two fought for a long time. Zhu Ling controlled the ghost boy to catch Jin Ying by surprise, but was discovered by Jin Ying and was eventually defeated and swept off the stage by the silk ribbon.

Zhu Ling wanted to go on stage again, but was stopped by Li Yang: "No need to go on stage. You have only been practicing Taoism for a few months, and you are already very good. Come back."

Zhu Ling returned to Li Yang's side with a look of self-blame on her face. Zhao Ziyao knew what this silly girl was thinking and comforted her:
"She is the one who awakens the spirit, and you are the one who guides the qi. You don't have to feel that losing is a disgrace to Baiyun Mountain and your master. You have become a little genius after practicing for just a few months to reach this level."

After some amusement, Zhu Ling finally burst into laughter.

The Vientiane evening party lasted until the early hours of the next morning. The sounds of firecrackers and fireworks rang out one after another at the foot of the mountain. It was a lively scene. At nearly six o'clock, Li Yang brought Chi Yanhong, Zhao Ziyao and Zhu Ling back to Baiyun Mountain on flying swords.

As dawn breaks, the morning sun gradually reveals its golden glow and the fog in the mountains slowly dissipates.

Most people in front of Tianshi Cave had left. Jin Ying paced on the open-air platform with her hands behind her back like a young girl, her eyes constantly looking in a certain direction.

Her master, Taoist Master Chengxin from Qianyuan Temple, saw the expression of his beloved disciple and naturally knew what she was thinking. He walked up to her and stood beside her, remaining silent for a long time.

"Jin Ying, your talent and aptitude are among the best in the entire Dao League. I can no longer teach you anything. It was an accident that you became my disciple at Qianyuan Temple. How about..."

Taoist Master Chengxin was a female Taoist in her forties. Although she was reluctant to let Jin Ying go, she knew that with Jin Ying's aptitude and talent, it would be a waste of her talent for her to become her disciple.

Before she could finish her words, she was interrupted by Jin Ying: "No, Master, I'm not going anywhere. I just want to serve you."

"But, you and Baiyunshan..."

Jin Ying shook her head:
"Master Li has his way, and I have mine, and they are different." After Jin Ying finished speaking, she looked in the direction of Baiyun Mountain, and her young face gradually became firm.
-
As soon as we got back to Baiyun Mountain, Wang Xin, who was still staying up all night, came to greet us.

"Oh my god, Master Li, was that 'Bai Yu Jing' on the Spring Festival Gala a fantasy you created? It's so magical! If I had known, I wouldn't have accompanied my cousin and gone with you!"

"And Master, did you know that your sword dance video from The Legend of Fuyao has gone viral online?"

Li Yang had known for a long time that his performance was broadcast live on the Spring Festival Gala, so he was not too surprised. After looking around, he asked, "Where's your cousin? Why can't I see her?"

"She is just a drunkard. A normal person couldn't hold on any longer and has already fallen asleep."

Chi Yanhong felt a little dizzy from the sword, and it took him a long time to stand steadily.

At this time, neither of them realized the impact that "Bai Yujing" and the sword dance video had caused on the Internet and its subsequent impact.

The Spring Festival went on schedule. On the third day of the New Year, Zhao Ziyao returned to Wutong Village to accompany her father and came back on the sixth day.

At the end of the Spring Festival, Qi Qiansu and Xie Lao went up the mountain to visit.

He and Chi Yanhong received the two people in Yuchan Hall.
After exchanging pleasantries and understanding the purpose of the two people's visit, Li Yang asked while eating fruit: "By the way, the delegation from the Sakura Country will visit in two weeks. I wonder how you are preparing now?"

"I originally wanted to tell you after the Spring Festival, but since Taoist Li asked now, let's take a look at the new information we collected first."

As he spoke, Mr. Xie waved his hand and whispered a few words to his assistant, who then took out documents from his bag.

There were two copies of the document. Chi Yanhong and Li Yang read one each. Qi Qiansu and Xie Lao already knew the contents of the document and were waiting while sipping Baiyun Li.

Chi Yanhong finished reading first, with a strange look on his face.
"How can such a tiny country have three innate beings?"

Three innates is not a small number. The number of innates in China, including those in the open and in secret, and those scattered among the people, does not exceed fifteen.

Mr. Xie smiled and said, "We are developing, and others are also making progress. This is the way it is for a small country. If it didn't have some strength, how dare it propose to communicate with us?"

Chi Yanhong read the document carefully again: "Their Yatagarasu is something special. The three innates are all high-ranking members of Yatagarasu."

Qi Qiansu followed up and said, "These three innates are in charge of a major secret department of the Yatagarasu, and they are all not simple. Among them, Suzuki Mina, who is in charge of the Yin-Yang Department, is a newly promoted innate, and her cultivation is the lowest among the three. Qichuan Feng, who is in charge of the Military Secret Department, is a militarist right-winger. As for the other one..."

Qi Qianshu paused and said, "This man is in charge of the most powerful Daoyi Department among the Yatagarasu. He is the most powerful and the most mysterious. We still haven't collected any information about him."

Li Yang closed the document and asked:
"If there are only three Xiantians, we should be able to handle them with the help of the Dao Alliance and the Special Bureau, right?"

Qi Qiansu nodded: "That being said, there is a variable among these three innates. The Dawu who is in charge of the Daoyi Department seems to have a very powerful magic weapon in his hand."

Elder Xie's expression turned serious as well: "This exchange between our two countries is just a show of strength. It is also the first time that our Chinese cultivation community will be seen internationally. We must make a name for ourselves!"

Li Yang looked at the schedule, which showed that he was only responsible for holding the fort and would not take action easily. Qi Qiansu would deal with the mysterious Da Wu from the Daoyi Department.

What surprised Li Yang was that the person in charge of dealing with the militarist right-winger Qichuan Feng according to the document was actually Zheng Zhaoyuan.

Qi Qiansu seemed to see Li Yang's doubts, and said with a sigh: "Perhaps Zheng Zhaoyuan is not very strong in the innate realm, but this is something the old cultivator took the initiative to ask for."

"The other two can exchange ideas and have friendly exchanges depending on the situation, but for this Qichuanfeng, we think it would be better for him to stay in China forever."
