Under One Person: From Nascent Soul to Great Sacred Body

Page 323

"Hmph, this snake's eyes are flashing with ferocity, that look of someone ready to devour you, do you think I'm blind!"

As he spoke, Mao Xiaofang took a cloth bag off his body.

"I will perform a ritual to help it pass on to the afterlife today, so that the souls of those it devoured may find solace in heaven."

As he spoke, Mao Xiaofang was about to perform a ritual to put the little white snake into his cloth bag.

"stop!"

Seeing Mao Xiaofang's spellcasting movements, the woman suddenly snatched the little white snake away, hugged it to her arms, and ran outside.

"Achu, Xiaohai, hurry up and chase after them!"

Seeing the woman run away, Mao Xiaofang glared at his two apprentices who were standing there like wooden puppets, and directly reprimanded them.

"Ah, oh!"

Upon hearing Mao Xiaofang's words, Achu and Xiaohai nodded quickly and chased after the woman.

"Brother Dao, why worry?"

“I’ve already injured that little snake; it won’t amount to anything.”

Seeing Mao Xiaofang's serious expression, Wuming couldn't help but smile and offered an explanation.

"Brother Dao, it is precisely because you injured that snake demon that we must chase it back."

"Otherwise, he would definitely eat people to recover his energy."

Mao Xiaofang said earnestly to Wuming.

"Fellow Daoist, I saw what you did just now."

Looking at Mao Xiaofang, who had thick eyebrows and big eyes, Wuming smiled and said to Mao Xiaofang with a half-smile.

"Cough cough."

Upon hearing Wuming's words, a hint of embarrassment flashed across Mao Xiaofang's face.

Unexpectedly, Wuming discovered his little trick.

"Just in case, my two disciples need some training."

"Otherwise, how will we eliminate demons and protect the righteous path in the future?"

Mao Xiaofang chuckled and put away the cloth in his hand, then cupped his hands in a respectful gesture to Wuming.

"I wonder which sect you follow to cultivate and receive blessings?"

"All of humanity".

The nameless man smiled and uttered two words.

Instantly, alarm bells rang in Mao Xiaofang's mind, who was still planning to get closer to Wuming.

All of them!!

"Fellow Daoist, have you heard of the Quanxing Sect?"

Seeing Mao Xiaofang's tense body and the look of someone facing a formidable enemy, Wuming couldn't help but smile.

"Fellow Daoist, the words 'Quanxing' are not to be taken lightly!"

Mao Xiaofang stared at Wuming with a serious expression and slowly said.

"No joke, I really am a member of the Quanxing."

Upon hearing Mao Xiaofang's words, Wuming nodded slightly.

"Fellow Daoist, why have you gone to such lengths?"

"This Quanxing, that's a place where even humans can go!"

Hearing Wuming's serious expression, Mao Xiaofang couldn't help but growl in a low voice.

"They're in already, why bring this up again?"

"To be honest, if it weren't for Quanxing's protection back then, I'm afraid I would have died in the wilderness."

Wuming shook his head slightly and said with a serious expression.

"Fellow Daoist should know that even if it means giving up one's own life, one should still eliminate demons and defend the righteous path."

Mao Xiaofang looked at Wuming with a serious expression, as if expecting Wuming to say that he was just joking.

"I did not do anything bad."

In response to Mao Xiaofang's words, Wuming chuckled and replied.

"Alas, fellow Daoist, why be so stubbornly ignorant?"

Upon hearing this, Mao Xiaofang couldn't help but sigh.

"There's nothing we can do. Everyone has their own ambitions, and everyone chooses their own path."

Wuming smiled.

"Alright, fellow Daoist, there's no point in arguing. Let's part ways here."

"But I've done the math, and we'll probably see each other again very soon."

"Farewell!"

Wuming cupped his hands in greeting to Mao Xiaofang, then walked towards the town in the distance.

Yang Feiyun had been waiting there for a long time.

"Why not just kill him?"

Seeing the nameless person approaching, Yang Feiyun couldn't help but ask.

Yang Feiyun just confirmed that the Taoist priest who appeared was indeed his nemesis.

Why kill?

“That Taoist priest is from Shangqing Maoshan. If we kill him now, we’ll be in big trouble.”

"Moreover, that Taoist priest possessed great fortune and had a unique destiny."

"It's better to keep them alive so they can be killed later."

Wuming said with a smile.

Yang Feiyun cast a divination for Mao Xiaofang, and Wuming also cast a divination for Mao Xiaofang.

Compared to the incompatible fates calculated by Yang Feiyun, Wuming calculated even more.

The dramatic changes that happened before had actually occurred to Mao Xiaofang.

Yang Feiyun was merely a prelude.

It's interesting.

"Let's go, let's rent a room in an inn in town first, then I'll talk to you properly."

Wuming waved to Yang Feiyun, who was standing still in the station, looking puzzled and conflicted.

On the other side, Mao Xiaofang glanced intently at the direction Wuming and Yang Feiyun had left.

With a sigh of regret, he took out a talisman from his pocket.

As a secular settlement of Shangqing Maoshan, Mao Xiaofang received news of the Maoshan ancestral temple when rumors of defying fate and changing one's destiny began to circulate.

Once they learned of the relevant information, they immediately sent a message to the Maoshan Ancestral Temple, especially keeping an eye on whether any Quanxing people appeared in the surrounding area.

"Sect Leader, are you serious?"

Inside an inn in a nearby town called Gantian, Yang Feiyun stared wide-eyed at Wuming.

"Changing the world" is just talk, are you serious?

"Actually, we don't know if it will work out, but with you here, it's highly likely to succeed."

Wuming stroked his chin and looked at Yang Feiyun.

"Sect Leader, what does this have to do with me?"

Feeling extremely uncomfortable under Wuming's gaze, Yang Feiyun touched his arm and said in a low voice.

"Feiyun, have you ever heard of the entanglement of fate?"

"Your nemesis for life has appeared."

Wuming patted Yang Feiyun on the shoulder and said with a smile.

"Sect Leader, you know?"

Upon seeing Wuming's words, Yang Feiyun's eyes widened in surprise.
