The most melodramatic rebirth in history

Chapter 486 I want the old Taoist priest who commands dragons

Half an hour ago.

Green moss stands atop the clouds, where the wind stirs the clouds.

The clouds and mist transformed into a chessboard and two black and white pieces, with two graceful figures playing chess sitting on either side of the board, appearing and disappearing in the distance.

"Ancestor Green Moss, it's been many years. Your concealment techniques have become much more refined!" Murong Shu said with a raised eyebrow.

"Ah, please forgive my rudeness, Divine Envoy!" Upon hearing this, a white-haired Taoist priest appeared in a flash, traversing the void, and bowed, saying, "This humble Taoist greets Divine Envoy Murong and Lady Ghost!"

"Ancestor Green Moss, no need for formalities! You know perfectly well why I've come. Since you've shown yourself, you must have already made your decision. So stay here and observe. I promise not to interfere. Leave all grudges to the younger generation to settle, and that's also what your divine envoys want."

The Ghost Princess spoke succinctly, glancing only at the newcomer before turning her gaze back to the chessboard.

"In that case, this humble Taoist will respectfully comply!"

The Old Ancestor of Green Moss flicked his whisk with his right hand and conjured a futon out of thin air with his left, then casually sat down cross-legged beside the two.

……

Qingtai Temple, the front and back of the fifty-ninth immortal mountain.

The nine-tailed fox demon and the white jade spider, two enormous Dharma bodies, hovered in the air, forming a pincer attack.

"Master of Qingtai Temple, what have you decided? As long as you hand over the culprit, the grudges from a thousand years ago will be wiped clean. Moreover, the Empress has instructed that those of your Qingtai Temple with entry quotas for this trip to the Miracle Mountain and Sea Secret Realm will still have the opportunity to form an alliance with our South Sea Illusion Continent and help each other. Do not resist stubbornly and force us to commit massacres and damage our harmony!"

Ayu and Azhu displayed their demigod-level auras without reservation, causing most of the Taoists on the immortal mountain to turn pale.

Only Qingtaizi and the two quasi-demigod women standing beside her were unaffected by the pressure from these two demigods.

"So be it! This is a karmic calamity, ultimately caused by Uncle-Master Yulong. I can hand him over... but countless disciples within the temple have been injured because of you. How should this debt be settled?"

Qingtaizi looked up at the sky with a deep gaze, as if he could see two chess players and one spectator behind the clouds.

Earlier, the Green Moss Ancestor had transmitted his voice to Green Moss Child: This person, you can befriend him or not! You are in charge of handling this matter. However, if you choose to befriend him, you cannot do so too easily, lest people underestimate my Green Moss Temple.

"We acted with restraint! Previously, we only destroyed the immortal mountain caves to search for people, and we did not deliberately harm your disciples. In fact, A'Zhu even wrapped them in white jade silk to protect them. No one died, which can be considered as showing mercy!"

Ayu and Azhu withdrew their magical forms, reverting to their original forms as beautiful maids. They clenched their fists fiercely at the Green Moss Temple Master and threatened, "If you still want to use this as an excuse to refuse to hand over the person, don't blame us for being ruthless!"

Upon hearing this, Qingtaizi was both amused and exasperated, but he understood that what the two demons said was true. He had no choice but to accept the situation and secretly signaled to the nun Jingliu beside him to bring the old Taoist Yulong to him.

A short while later, the nun Jingliu brought the delirious old Taoist Yulong to the group and the two demons.

"Master Yulong, I'm sorry! The sins you've committed are beyond my power to bear for you... Ah!"

The abbot of Qingtai Temple glanced at the chains of consciousness binding the old Daoist Yulong with a complicated expression, then looked at Ayu and Azhu who had stepped forward to capture him, and warned, "Fellow Daoists, the remnant soul of Zhujiuyin has been cultivating and dormant within the body of Daoist Yulong for a thousand years, and its strength should not be underestimated! Do not easily untie these chains of consciousness, or it will cause another problem!"

“Yes.” Ayu and Azhu nodded solemnly and joined forces to cast several more demonic sealing spells on the Dragon-Controlling Taoist.

As fellow demons, they had naturally heard many legends about the god of Zhongshan, Zhu Jiuyin. Even though the current opponent was only a remnant soul of Zhu Jiuyin, they could not be careless.

"Whoa!"

However, neither the two demons nor the moss-covered audience noticed that two mysterious figures had already quietly approached.

"Boom!"

Suddenly, lightning flashed, and the figure of an old man with white hair appeared in everyone's sight, attracting everyone's attention. It was none other than the Thunder Bodhisattva of Qingtai Temple.

"I want this old Taoist priest who commands dragons!"

Immediately, a figure in black robes appeared out of thin air in front of Ayu and Azhu. Facing the two demons' astonished gazes, he knocked them back with a single palm strike and snatched the Dragon-Riding Old Daoist they had just acquired! "Green! Moss! Child—!"

"Excellent! What a wonderful moss-covered pavilion!"

Thinking it was a clever scheme orchestrated by the Green Moss Temple Master, Ayu and Azhu gritted their teeth in anger, their overwhelming rage and pressure rising steadily, their true forms about to emerge.

"Fellow Daoists, please calm down! I swear on my Dao heart that this matter was not instigated by me, nor has it had anything to do with my Green Moss Temple. Please do not let your anger affect the innocent people in the temple!"

Seeing Ayu and Azhu's auras surge wildly as they went berserk, the abbot of Qingtai Temple, who had initially been somewhat gloating and eager to watch the show, twitched at the corner of his eye and quickly swore an oath with his Dao heart.

Thus, the two demons snorted coldly at Qingtaizi and the others, and then fixed their gazes on the person who had made the move.

He was a handsome young man in black robes, whose aura was deep and restrained. If it weren't for the fact that it was out of sight, everyone would probably think that there was no one there.

"Oh it's you!"

Ayu and Azhu recognized the black-robed youth's face. The anger in their eyes subsided somewhat, and they couldn't help but exchange a glance, their beautiful eyes sparkling with surprise: "Feng Ling?!"

The young man in black robes smiled warmly: "I am honored that the two fairy maidens still remember me! This old Taoist priest has quite a grudge against my close friend. I wonder if I could take him away?"

Fairy Demon?
Ayu and Azhu were secretly delighted, but on the surface they wore a haughty expression: "You think you can just take him away like that?"

Upon hearing this, Feng Ling believed that a great battle was inevitable and was already preparing to fight.

Unexpectedly, the two demons suddenly changed their minds: "Actually... it's not impossible! Let us discuss it!"

After saying that, Ayu and Azhu turned around as if no one else was around, and whispered to each other.

At this moment, no one doubted that if Feng Ling had taken this opportunity to escape, the two demons might still be kept in the dark...

Of course, Ayu and Azhu represent the Ghost Princess and the South China Sea Illusion Continent. Although Feng Ling was confident that Ayu and Azhu could not stop him if he went all out, he was not confident enough to contend with the Ghost Princess and the entire South China Sea Illusion Continent.

"What's going on here?"

Qingtaizi and the others looked helpless, thinking to themselves:
So, the Dragon-Riding Taoist who fought tooth and nail with our Green Moss Temple to force us to hand over has become someone we can negotiate with in the hands of this black-robed youth?
Qingtaizi was unaware that the Ghost Princess's instructions to Ayu and Azhu were exactly the same as those given to him by the Qingtai Ancestor—Ayu and Azhu, the main purpose of this trip to Qingtai Temple is to intimidate us lowly creatures and not diminish the prestige of our South China Sea Illusion Continent! As for the rest, you can make your own decisions!

"Elder Ling, won't you introduce this young friend Feng Ling to me?"

Qingtaizi laughed heartily, as if he were an old friend, and led the Qingtai audience past the two demons to greet them.

Ling Weiyun smiled and said, "Master, Feng Ling and I are bosom friends, and Feng Ling is also one of the guest elders of the Holy City of Fierce Ghosts!"

"Oh? You're quite the promising young man!"

Qingtaizi immediately became interested and couldn't help but look at Feng Ling, praising, "With young friend Feng's cultivation, you should be able to secure a place in the top three of this year's Human Ranking, and you can also compete for the Earth Ranking and Heaven Ranking!"

Seeing this, Feng Ling humbly replied, "Master, you flatter me! I have come here on the orders of the City Lord to settle a karmic debt for my friend. Please forgive me if I have offended you!"

"It's alright. Now that the Dragon-Riding Daoist has been handed over, he has nothing to do with my Green Moss Temple anymore! Besides, young friend, you didn't attack our Green Moss Temple, so how can you say you've offended us!"

With these words, Qingtaizi cleverly conveyed to the Qingtai Temple audience that Yulong Laodao had been expelled from the sect, and also clearly stated to Fengling that Qingtai Temple would not make things difficult for him.

Next, we await Ayu and Azhu's reply.

Every time a creature hatches, it's a new beginning...

The world is full of chaos and troubles; may the sages and saints offer you a pure land for your souls.
