From a Zhengyi Taoist Child to a Master of All Laws

Chapter 229: Congenital Dao Idiot
Instructor Ma and a group of prospective sword masters were confused. Logically, shouldn't these two old Taoist priests come to stop people? Why are the three of them sitting together and chatting and laughing?
After a long silence, some people began to chat and speculate on the identities of the three people.

Shao Qiwei had some guesses about the identities of the two old Taoist priests, and asked quietly: "Instructor Ma, are these two old Taoist priests from the Taoist Alliance..."

Before he could finish his words, Ke He and Xia Jiajie, who were squeezed at the back of the crowd, saw the appearance of the two old Taoists, exclaimed in surprise, and ran towards the pavilion.

"Master Qingjingzi, Master Yuyangzi, why are you two here?"

Li Yang shook his head. He could tell at a glance that Ke He was still playing dumb.

"Let me introduce you again. This is the leader of the Dao League, Qi Qiansu, and this is the head of the Shangqing Sect of Yuanmao Mountain, Chen Xiyan."

Qi Qiansu and Chen Xiyan smiled at each other.
"My dear friend Ke He, how are you?"

Although he had guessed it in his mind, when he actually knew the identities of these two people, Ke He still felt surprised and greeted them hurriedly.

Ke He was pretending to be stupid, but Xia Jiajie was really stupid. When she heard Li Yang announce the identities of the two people, her mind was obviously confused and she couldn't understand what was going on.

After looking around blankly for a long time and not finding the familiar figure of the old charlatan, Xia Jiajie bent over and asked where Chi Ming was.

"Daoyou Chi Ming has a special identity and cannot be exposed to the public. He cannot participate in such occasions."

Qi Qiansu explained carefully, and then continued to look at Li Yang.

"Fellow Daoist, if you can wait for two more days until Elder Xie returns from abroad, he probably won't refuse your request to look at the sword in the Zhaojian Tower."

Li Yang shook his head: "I can't wait any longer."

Qi Qianshu continued, "It's true that we can't contact Mr. Xie right now. During the time when we were compiling textbooks at Dongfeng, foreign cultivation forces frequently exposed themselves to the public. In addition, extreme cultivation forces in countries such as North America and England established armies to challenge the government regime. The leaders of several major countries were in confidential meetings and blocked all external communication channels."

Li Yang was surprised to hear that the situation abroad had deteriorated to this extent.

After Ke He and Xia Jiajie knew the identities of Qi Qiansu and Chen Xiyan, they did not act rashly anymore, but stood behind Li Yang on the left and right in an orderly manner.

"So, you two came here specifically to tell me this?"

Chen Xiyan said with emotion: "That's right, there must be some rules in this world. Mr. Xie can't be contacted, so we have to come. Although we can't stop him, we have to at least tell others that there are such rules, and almost everyone is still abiding by them."

Li Yang smiled knowingly. This was what his two old friends were telling him, and also telling the world, that he, Li Yang, was the only one who could break this rule.

"Thank you."

Li Yang stood up, bowed, and drank the tea in the cup.

As he was about to walk towards the Zhaojian Tower again, Li Yang glanced at Ke He and then at Chen Xiyan, remembering the words of the noble lady before her death, and asked curiously:
"Fellow Daoist Chen, do you know the Zhu family and the Spiritual Materials Bureau?"

Seeing Chen Xiyan's face full of confusion, Ke He and Xia Jiajie on the side hurriedly narrated the whole cause and effect to the old Taoist priest.

Many processes were omitted, and the unbelievable act of Li Yang's sword energy taking people's heads was exaggerated.

After understanding the reason, Chen Xiyan thought for a long time and then remembered the Zhu family. He quickly clarified:
"To be honest with you, Fellow Daoist Li, I do know this Madam Zhu, but it was more than ten years ago, when the spiritual energy had not yet revived. I performed a few magic rituals with the elders of their family, so we have some connections, but we have not been in contact since the spiritual energy revived."

Li Yang laughed dumbly. Well, it was the Zhu family who was flattering themselves. Before the revival of spiritual energy, these old Taoists basically had some side jobs to make a living. For example, Qi Qiansu sold tickets in Qingcheng Mountain, and Chen Xiyan relied on the title of the head of Maoshan to hold rituals for dignitaries every day. There were even more outrageous ones, such as Chen Junchang of Huashan Sect, who was said to have been fortune-telling at the foot of Huashan Mountain. Because of his inaccurate predictions, he was reported to the police for fraud and was imprisoned for several months...

"So good."

After saying that, Li Yang continued to move forward alone, walking on the bluestone steps that extended deep into the rocks.

Ke He was worried and wanted to follow, but was stopped by Qi Qiansu.

At this time, Instructor Ma behind him also accelerated and caught up. Seeing Li Yang continuing to move towards the Zhaojian Tower, he became anxious.

"Master Qi, Master Chen, why didn't you two stop them?"

"I stopped him. Didn't you see it?" Qi Qiansu's face was full of regret: "Unfortunately, I just didn't stop him."

"You don't have to stop him anymore. If the higher-ups blame you later, just say it's my fault."

Instructor Ma smiled bitterly and had no choice but to agree.

Instructor Ma's words also caused a huge wave among the dozen or so prospective sword masters, completely confirming the identities of the two Taoist priests.

Everyone was talking about it. Who was this young Taoist who could not be stopped even by the two big guys, the leader of the Taoist Alliance and the head of Maoshan?
"Let's go. Since we can't stop him, it's a great fortune for you to be able to see the miraculous scene of Master Li's enlightenment."

After pacifying everyone, in order not to disturb Li Yang, Qi Qiansu waited until Li Yang had walked several hundred meters before calling on everyone else to follow.

Qi Qiansu had already seen that Li Yang had some kind of connection with the sword and was on the verge of enlightenment.

Zhaojian Tower is divided into nine floors in total, with carved beams and painted rafters on each floor, engraved with various deeds and statues of Bixia Yuanjun. There are also many rare and exotic animals carved on the tile beams, which looks mysterious and solemn.

The base of Zhaojian Pagoda is on an extremely empty space. With layers of tower bodies stacked up, it seems to have sunk into the sky.

Standing under the Zhaojian Tower, Li Yang did not enter the tower because in the open space, there was a female Taoist sitting cross-legged in meditation with a wooden sword standing beside her.

Ke He once told him that there was a sword master named Yubao who had been in seclusion in Zhaojian Tower.

The first moment he saw Yu Bao, Li Yang was in a trance and discovered that Yu Bao's eyebrows and eyes were actually three-quarters similar to Chi Yanhong.

But compared to Chi Yanhong, Yubao is colder and more plain.

They both have piled up buns, long and beautiful eyebrows, bright red lips, and white teeth. They both wear silk shoes and silk socks, and jade-green feathered clothes that are not stained by dust.

Chi Yanhong is like a lotus in pure water, untouched by worldly affairs, but he still shows his smiles, joy, anger and resentment in every frown and smile, making people see the beauty of a banished immortal.

But the first feeling Li Yang had when this Yubao Taoist nun was that of cold winter water, lonely and desolate for eternity. The surface of the lake was covered with ice, without even a ripple from the daily life of the world.

Just like the feather robe she was wearing, there was no other color except the cool solid color.

Li Yang could tell that this was a congenital person and also a Taoist fanatic.
