I will traverse countless worlds and become a god entirely on my own!

"Fellow Daoist, let's hurry home tonight and discuss the Dao. There's nowhere to rest around here. If you want to leave, your disciple can't handle it!"

Si Mu glanced at Ren Tingting behind Bai Ye and reminded her, "Bai Ye can walk, but that doesn't mean Ren Tingting can."

Bai Ye glanced at Ren Tingting, hesitated for a moment, and then nodded in agreement, "Okay."

Perhaps we can see if there's a plot involved.

(End of this chapter)

Chapter 144. Buddha is the Tao, the Taoist Master Bai is a man of immortal bearing!

144.

"Jiale, you little rascal, get out here right now!"

Because of the presence of guests, Master Simu's original intention to give Jiale a little punishment was temporarily extinguished.

Last night, while traveling with Bai Ye, I looked at Ren Tingting and then at Jia Le. Tears of envy welled up in our eyes. They were both disciples, but one was talented and obedient, while the other was not talented and liked to slack off.

Recalling the look of disappointment on Uncle Nine's face when he left Uncle Nine's mortuary that day, he understood.

It turns out that there's no harm without comparison. What sins did I commit in my past life to end up with such a disciple? I must have had the worst luck in eight lifetimes.

"Master is here!"

Hearing the voice of Master Simu outside, Jiale quickly got up from the rattan chair and ran outside.

"What a nice view."

"Do you want to die?"

Enraged, Master Si Mu smashed a thorn into Jia Le's head.

Lose your face!

This is absolutely shameful!

"Ouch, Master! Why did you hit me?!"

Jiale clutched his forehead in pain; he almost died on the spot.

I only said "It's beautiful," why am I being hit? I didn't say anything wrong!

Seeing this, Ren Tingting covered her mouth and chuckled softly, which made Jiale stare even more intently.

He originally thought Qingqing, who had returned with Master Ikkyu, was very beautiful, but now, compared to Ren Tingting, she doesn't seem so beautiful anymore.

"You've utterly disgraced me! Taking you as a disciple is the worst luck I've ever had! Go and clean this place thoroughly, make sure it's spotless!" After reprimanding Jia Le, Master Simu turned to Bai Ye somewhat embarrassedly and apologized, "I've made a fool of myself; it's truly a disgrace to our sect!"

Normally, given Master Si Mu's thick skin, he wouldn't care at all.

But seeing Ren Tingting's well-behaved and sensible nature yesterday, and Jiale's unreliability today, he really couldn't hold back anymore.

"That's normal; everyone has a love for beauty."

Ren Tingting could be considered a succubus in the zombie world, right?

In Mr. Vampire, Wen Cai likes, Qiu Sheng likes, and A Wei likes, but Uncle Jiu doesn't have any affection for him, though he's not as strict with Ren Tingting.

After cultivating immortality, her temperament, figure, and face all improved significantly. How could Jiale, a boy who had always lived in the mountains, possibly resist Ren Tingting's charm?

"Sigh, instead of focusing on important matters, we're wasting our time on these useless things. My lineage won't be able to continue in the future!"

Master Four Eyes sighed. Cultivation is inherently difficult, and it becomes even more difficult after spiritual energy is depleted. Coupled with poor talent and unwillingness to work hard, he felt that the path of cultivation would truly be difficult to pass on in the future.

No one wants their lineage to disappear with them.

How are they supposed to face their ancestor in the future?

“It’s normal for fledglings to not have experienced storms. I saw Qiu Sheng and Wen Cai at Uncle Jiu’s place last time. Qiu Sheng is actually quite talented. After that incident, he seems to have calmed down a lot.”

"Indeed, Qiu Sheng is much more mature than before. I wonder how long Jia Le will need!"

Master Simu nodded in agreement; he had also been surprised when he last met Qiusheng.

I never expected that Qiu Sheng would change his ways. His former mischievous personality has become more mature, and he is willing to cultivate Taoism with Uncle Jiu. As for Wen Cai, he knows that he is not talented. Although he will occasionally practice martial arts, he mostly slacks off.

Ren Tingting, who was standing to the side, did not speak. She listened quietly to what Bai Ye and Master Simu had to say. Although she had not known the people in Renjia Town for very long, she had become familiar with them quickly because of the zombies.

This can be considered one of Ren Tingting's few friends.

Initially, Ren Tingting didn't have much affection for either of them, just like Awei. She knew their feelings all too well, but they were just too obvious.

Moreover, she didn't like him at the time, but the way he approached her directly made it hard for her to develop any feelings for him.

However, after getting to know each other better, Ren Tingting realized that she had brought too much of her own subjective bias, and the two became friends.

"Speaking of which, they should know each other, right?"

Changing the subject, Master Simu turned his attention to Ren Tingting, who had also come from Renjia Town. He must have met her before, right?

"Yes, we know each other before."

Ren Tingting nodded in response.

Hearing Ren Tingting's answer, a trace of emotion flashed across Master Simu's face. It seemed that she thought the same thing as him. His senior brother had misjudged her and was just unlucky.

Such a good disciple

Si Mu sighed inwardly, "It's all fate."

He welcomed Bai Ye and the other person into the living room.

After lighting sandalwood incense, Master Simu also wanted to discuss the Dao with Bai Ye. Back then, Uncle Jiu had a breakthrough after discussing the Dao with Bai Ye and had some insights.

This made Simu somewhat envious. Although he was somewhat lazy, he knew that no matter how hard he tried to cultivate, his limit was limited.

He knew very well that there were things he didn't want to do, but that after the spiritual energy was depleted, it was already very difficult to cultivate.

But if he could improve his skills, why would he choose to give up?

The two discussed philosophy from day to night.

Jiale came to visit during this time, and seeing Ren Tingting sitting obediently next to Bai Ye, listening quietly, he gave up his plan to come in and disturb her.

After all, Jiale wasn't really interested in cultivating Taoism.

Moreover, Jiale found it strange that Master Simu started discussing Taoism as soon as he returned today.

It wasn't like this before. Shouldn't we be exploiting ourselves a little?

Yeah.

Jiale comforted himself, at least he wouldn't be exploited. Thinking that the master next door had returned and he was getting a little bored here, he decided to go and find Master Ikkyu.

"Master Ikkyu, Master Ikkyu, are you there?"

Jiale pushed open the gate to the courtyard, walked in, and called out a couple of times. The two houses were not far apart.

"Jiale?"

Master Ikkyu walked out of the room, greeted Jiale with a smile.

That stinky Taoist priest next door is back. He heard the noise during the day, but he didn't pay any attention to it.

They've been bickering for years, and although they often have disagreements, he's always been good to Jiale.

Moreover, judging from the situation next door, it seems that the other party has guests.

This also made Master Ikkyu a little curious; this stinky Taoist priest actually has friends!

I originally thought that with that stinky Taoist's personality, he would never have any friends.

"Master, I might have to mooch dinner here tonight!"

Jiale was going to cook, but seeing how seriously they were discussing things, she decided to give up, mainly because she was afraid they wouldn't eat it anyway.

It's better to just come here and have a bite to eat.

"Oh? Didn't your master come back? And aren't you going to visit your guests?"

strangeness.

Master Ikkyu frowned, originally thinking that Jiale was coming to borrow something.

But after hearing Jiale's words, Master Ikkyu was also a little confused. When guests come to the house, shouldn't Jiale, as a disciple, be waiting there?

"They probably won't eat it."

Jiale shook his head. Even if they wanted to eat it, he could make it himself later.

"Cultivating immortality?"

Are you waiting to cultivate immortality instead of eating?

Has that stinky Taoist priest reached this level already?

"No, my master is discussing Taoism with Master Bai."

Jiale quickly offered an explanation, but honestly, it seems like Taoists are just cultivators of immortality, aren't they?

"Fellow?"

Master Ikkyu suddenly realized that they were discussing the Dao.

Following behind Master Yixiu, Qingqing unconsciously conjured up the image of the old Taoist priest with a bull's nose in her mind. Although she had never met the Four-Eyed Taoist, after Jiale's description, Qingqing felt that the Taoist priest seemed to be very similar to her own imagination.

"Let's do it together then. Their discussion will probably take a long time."

Although Master Yixiu was surprised that Master Simu didn't let Jiale listen to his discourse, he didn't say much. After all, it was their own business, and he couldn't interfere.

"Master, are you going later?"

Jiale asked curiously, "Although the master practices Buddhism, Buddhism is the Tao, isn't it?"

Maybe they can have a chat.

"I'm not going, since they didn't invite me!"

Master Yixiu shook his head. Although he was somewhat tempted, he ultimately gave up. After all, Master Simu had not invited him over. If he took the initiative to approach him, he would inevitably be ridiculed by Master Simu.

This was absolutely unacceptable to Master Ikkyu.

After meeting Si Mu, he spent his entire life competing with her.

"What's so interesting about Taoist priests discussing Taoism?"
