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

"That's right. Why did Liu Bowen cut off this dragon vein? The Ming Dynasty didn't last many more years because of it!"

She muttered something under her breath, wondering what Liu Bowen was thinking.

"Who knows if it was Liu Bowen who wanted to execute him?"

Who could possibly know these things?

So many years have passed, and no one knows for sure who was right or wrong anymore.

When the others heard what Bai Ye said, they agreed with him.

"It looks like a ghost is coming this way."

Bai Ye looked into the distance and said as if sensing something.

"Is a ghost heading this way?"

"No way?! What ghost would dare come this way?!"

Awei yelled loudly as he followed Bai Ye's gaze.

Is this guy tired of living?!

With so many Taoist priests here, even the other disciples are capable of dealing with ghosts.

There are actually some blind ghosts who dare to come here?!

"careful!"

Accompanied by the sound, a female ghost in a red robe rushed towards Bai Ye and the others, while a man and a woman chased after her, warning Bai Ye and the others to be careful as they ran.

As the red-robed female ghost drew closer and closer to those people, Ao Tianlong felt extremely anxious.

He originally brought his daughter home to visit relatives, but because of his daughter's playfulness, they provoked the red-robed fire demon on the way.

The two sides then clashed.

"How could it be gone?!"

A hint of doubt flashed in the eyes of the red-robed fire demon.

Glancing at Ao Tianlong chasing after her, she gritted her teeth and accelerated towards Bai Ye and the others.

She had sensed an aura that attracted her here, so she came here. Since she couldn't defeat Ao Tianlong, she knew that if she continued to fight, she might be captured.

Keeping the green hills, you don’t have to worry about having no firewood.

She remembered these two people. If Ao Ningshuang hadn't disfigured her, she wouldn't have provoked them.

He just couldn't beat the two of them.

Fortunately, he happened to meet some ordinary people here, and if he could use them, he could escape.

"Evil ghost."

Bai Ye glanced at the malevolent aura emanating from the red-robed fire demon; it must have harmed quite a few people.

"What is that?! Hand-crafted lightning?!"

Ao Tianlong unconsciously stopped in his tracks. Looking at Bai Ye's hand-drawn lightning, he could tell that this was no ordinary person!

He had previously worried that the red-robed fire demon would directly target these ordinary people, making him hesitant to act.

"do not want!"

The red-robed fire demon let out a mournful cry, watching helplessly as lightning struck it, ultimately reducing it to ashes.

"I apologize, fellow Daoists, for making you laugh."

Ao Tianlong walked forward somewhat embarrassedly, looked at them, and greeted them with a cupped-hand salute.

As a Taoist priest, he felt somewhat embarrassed that he had almost allowed evil spirits to harm ordinary people while he was exorcising demons and protecting the righteous path.

This is at least one of the opponent's strengths and abilities.

"It doesn't matter."

Bai Ye curiously examined Ao Tianlong, then turned to look at Uncle Jiu. To be honest, the two really did look somewhat alike.

"I am Ao Tianlong from Maoshan. May I ask who you all are?"

"Maoshan?!"

Uncle Nine's eyes widened; he'd never seen anything like this before!

"I am Lin Jiu from Maoshan."

"The Maoshan School is so-so."

They are all from the Maoshan sect; the three of them come from the same sect.

"Are you two also from Maoshan?" Ao Tianlong's eyes lit up after he finished speaking, and then he seemed to have thought of something and immediately explained, "We are disciples that our master took in after he left Maoshan and went down the mountain to establish a Taoist temple. We have been staying at that temple ever since and have not returned to Maoshan."

They had only gone back once before, when the amnesty was granted, to inform the ancestors of Maoshan.

After hearing his explanation, a look of understanding flashed in Uncle Nine's eyes. Wasn't he just like himself?

He hasn't been back to Maoshan for a long time now, because of the conflict with his senior brother, and because Maoshan disciples usually choose a place as their own dojo after graduation.

This was done to prevent demons and monsters from causing harm to people in various places, so many Maoshan disciples may not actually know each other.

Just like Qiusheng and Wencai, if they hadn't been in frequent contact like Simu, perhaps their fellow disciples wouldn't have known they had such two disciples.

“I am not from the Maoshan Sect, I am from the Shenxiao Sect, and this is my disciple.”

When Bai Ye saw that Ao Tianlong and Ao Ningshuang's gazes were both on him, he offered an explanation.

"Shen Xiao Sect?! Disrespect, disrespect!"

Ao Tianlong was somewhat surprised, but he didn't say much.

Taoist priests from two different sects have gathered together—could it be that some kind of demon is behind this?!

(End of this chapter)

Chapter 277: The Love Story of the Security Captain and the Naïve Girl? Awei, are you serious?

"Dad, what kind of sect is the Divine Firmament Sect?!"

Ao Ningshuang frowned, looking at Ao Tianlong with a puzzled expression. She really had never heard of this sect.

She had heard of Longhu Mountain, though.

Upon hearing her words, Ao Tianlong's expression changed.

Because she had lived in the border region for many years, she didn't know much about it, and he hadn't let Ao Ning Shuang come into too much contact with these things. Although he taught her cultivation, she hadn't been exposed to these Taoist practices.

In Ao Tianlong's opinion, they might not even meet.

Ao Ningshuang's actions are somewhat impolite.

Even if you don't know, you shouldn't tell anyone.

"I'm sorry, fellow Daoist. My daughter has been living with me in the frontier, so she doesn't know much about these things."

Ao Tianlong explained, looking somewhat embarrassed.

Ao Ning Shuang, who was standing to the side, realized that she had said the wrong thing. Although she had always been so carefree, they didn't know each other. Just as she was about to apologize, Bai Ye waved his hand and said, "It's alright. It's normal not to have heard of it."

It's not like the Shenxiao Sect rules this world, and Bai Ye doesn't know why he's giving such a flustered explanation.

Bai Ye's indifference relieved Ao Tianlong.

"Fellow Daoist, are you heading somewhere to exorcise demons?"

Ao Tianlong was a little curious. Since Bai Ye didn't seem to care much about this matter, he certainly wouldn't keep bringing it up.

He was also curious as to why they were all gathered there.

"Yes, but it's just hearsay, and it's not confirmed yet."

Uncle Nine nodded in reply.

It is currently unknown whether there are truly evil entities there.

"So many people? Is that evil creature very strong? Should we all go together?"

Upon seeing this, Ao Tianlong quickly asked.

Seeing so many people together, and considering that the other party was quite strong, able to conjure lightning with their bare hands, they must be very powerful.

Thinking about it this way, why don't I go along with them?

This way, everyone can look out for each other.

"Father, aren't we?!"

Ao Ningshuang muttered something, but in the end she decided to give up.

They were going back to visit their relatives.

However, if it's for exorcising demons, then it's better to visit relatives later.

"Cough, we just wiped out the zombie king of Tengteng Town! We're not afraid of that little Karami monster at all!"

The person who said this was Awei.

Of course, he saw Ao Ningshuang next to Ao Tianlong, and the urge to show off came up.

This matter doesn't really concern him, since it was Bai Ye who dealt with the zombies. But if he were to say this, would Master Bai Ye contradict himself?

Thinking of this, Awei glanced at Bai Ye cautiously. Seeing that Bai Ye didn't say anything but just looked at him with a smile, he felt a sudden pounding in his heart.

"What?! You guys took care of the zombies in Tengteng Town?!"

A look of shock flashed across Ao Tianlong's face. He had heard about the events in Tengteng Town. The news had spread so quickly that even though he was far away on the frontier, he had heard about it on his way here.

If it weren't for the time constraints, he would have liked to go and take a look.

Tengteng Town is renowned throughout the frontier.

"you?!"

Ao Ning Shuang was equally surprised, but she had some doubts. The other Taoist priests should have some skill, but the more she looked at this smug-looking Awei, the less he seemed like himself!

This guy seemed weaker than me, but the words he uttered made it sound like he was trying to take all the credit for himself.
