The Demon King, reborn in Japan as a monk

Dongjun was startled and became even more convinced that Ishihara Sho was a true immortal.

Of course, my heart also felt increasingly heavy.

Since the immortals are real, it's very likely that what they say is also true! That is, the names of Dongjun, Taiyi, and Yueshen are associated with cause and effect, since the immortals have no reason to deceive a mortal like themselves.

Because it is not necessary.

And she couldn't figure out why the immortal did this.

Therefore, he made up his mind to go back and persuade Donghuang Taiyi to change the names of the elders and leaders of the Yin-Yang School, so that if the gods above were dissatisfied one day, they would wipe out the Yin-Yang School from top to bottom.

According to Ishihara Sho, the immortals seem unable to travel to the mortal realm.

And yet, we still have the immortal Ishihara Shoji in front of us.

Moreover, immortals are immortals, and gods are gods. Who knows if the restrictions imposed on immortals by the upper realm will also apply to gods?

If it proves useless, and gods can descend to the mortal realm at will, then the consequences...

The thought alone sends chills down one's spine.

"Alright, now you can talk about your business." Ishihara Akane said with a smile, as if he had done something insignificant, and indeed he had. He looked at the increasingly taciturn Dongjun Yanfei.

“I have nothing to say. After all, I have already explained my purpose for coming here. I am here on the orders of my sect leader to invite the immortal to visit my Yin Yang School’s residence,” Dong Jun repeated.

"Ha, your Yin Yang School has quite the nerve. He, the sect leader you mentioned, what kind of status does he have to dare invite me to the Yin Yang School? Do you think I'm someone so easily invited? How arrogant and ignorant." Shi Yuanzhang retorted with a face full of disdain, "If he really wants to get in touch with me, let him come to Zilan Pavilion in person with sincerity to pay me a visit. Otherwise, just let him give up on that idea."

"I understand. I will convey your words to the sect leader without missing a single one," Dongjun replied obediently without refutation.

“Alright, now let’s talk about your matter.” As soon as Ishihara Sho finished speaking, a golden light suddenly appeared in his eyes, making him seem like a true saint. This made Dongjun’s heart and body tense up, and she stood there without daring to move in the slightest, letting Ishihara Sho examine her from head to toe and then from toe to head several times, as if he were examining some exquisite object…

Then, Ishihara Akira withdrew the light from his eyes and looked at Dongjun's face with great interest.

"I wonder what the immortal wishes to say to Consort Yan?" Due to nervousness, Dongjun dared not use the relatively equal title of "I" to refer to himself at this moment. Instead, he used a more gentle and submissive way of addressing himself by his name to ask and answer.

"Do you want to solve your problems?" Ishihara Akira asked with a smile.

"What difference does it make whether I want to or not?" Dongjun retorted.

"If you wish, I can help you so that even if you bear the name of Dongjun, you won't have to worry about the consequences. If you don't wish, then pretend I never said this. But..."

"But what?" Dongjun had never hated those who liked to leave things unsaid as much as he did now, and he gritted his teeth as he pressed for an answer.

"It's just that if this kind of thing isn't exposed, not only will you not feel burdened, but the impact will also be minimal. At least it won't immediately erupt and cause all sorts of calamities to torment you until you die. In other words, if you choose to live like this, the rest of your life will become extremely uneasy, encountering all sorts of troubles and death calamities. If you don't care about that, then like I said, you can pretend I never said it and just leave here," Ishihara Akira chuckled.

"Even the immortals have said so, do I have a choice?" Dongjun said self-deprecatingly, changing his self-reference back to his original way of speaking because he was angry.

“Of course,” Ishihara Akira said with a smile.

"Please speak frankly, Immortal. What do you want in return for your help?" Dongjun asked with great insight.

“I’ve already stated my conditions. Think back to our previous conversation, and you should understand what I want.”

Dong Jun remained silent, frowning as she recalled all the conversations between her and Ishihara Akira after she entered the Purple Orchid Pavilion and met him…

Then Dongjun's expression changed.

Clearly, he had thought of something.

"Can I use someone else instead?" Dongjun hesitated for a moment before asking.

"Of course, as long as the price you offer meets my standards, I will naturally keep my promise and help you solve your problems," Ishihara Akira agreed with great tolerance.

“Give me a day,” Dongjun said decisively.

“Okay.” Ishihara Akira nodded.

Then Dongjun left the room where Ishihara Akira was without lingering any longer.

"What you just said about titles, is it true?" After Dongjun left, Yanlingji sat down next to Shiyuan Zhang, playing with the wooden hairpin in her hand while asking with great curiosity.

"It's true, but it depends on the situation." Shi Yuanzhang grabbed Yan Lingji's arm, pulled her into his arms, and put his hand inside her clothes, playing with her clothes.

"In certain worlds where the connection between heaven and earth is not severed, and the primordial energy of heaven and earth is extremely active, and the rules of cause and effect are more clearly manifested, what I'm describing is her and the Yin-Yang School's actual encounters that followed. However, in worlds where the connection between heaven and earth is severed, the primordial energy of heaven and earth is not active enough, and the rules of cause and effect are hidden, such things, while still having an impact, can be ignored once one's strength reaches a certain level. And in worlds where the connection between heaven and earth is severed and the primordial energy of heaven and earth is not active, then such an impact can no longer be manifested, and it would be an exaggeration to say that there is no impact at all."

"Then what kind of world do we live in?" Yan Lingji asked curiously.

“The second one,” Shi Yuanzhang replied. “But it doesn’t matter. Now that I’m in this world, I can use my power to influence the rules of this world. For example, I can make the rules of cause and effect more active. So if Dongjun really doesn’t want to comply, I don’t mind letting her know just how painful it is to bear the title of a god.”

Chapter 704 Returning

"Where is Shao Siming?" Dongjun Yanfei asked casually as she looked at Da Siming, who was left behind at the Yin-Yang School's camp in Xinzheng.

"They went out to investigate, to see if they could find any clues about the immortals from other sources," the High Priest replied.

"And you, have you made any progress over there?"

“Some,” Dongjun said, sitting down by the bed. He paused for a moment, then continued, “Great Master of Fate, if you were presented with two choices: one is to lose some freedom but break free from your destiny and enjoy boundless freedom and worldly pleasures; the other is to continue on the current path but encounter various hardships and even life-threatening dangers. Which would you choose?”

"If it were me, I would probably choose the first option." Da Siming looked at Dong Jun with some curiosity, pondered for a moment, and then answered.

“The first one…” Dongjun murmured.

"That's true. After all, if you can live a good life, no one would want to live a life of uncertainty and disaster."

"What's wrong with you?" Da Siming asked, looking at Dongjun who seemed a bit off.

"I need your help with something," Dongjun said, snapping out of his daze and looking at Da Siming beside him.

"What kind of help?" the High Priestess asked curiously.

"Lend me your help." After saying that, Dongjun decisively formed a hand seal and activated the Yin Yang School's supreme martial art - Soul Soaring Dragon. The energy of the soaring dragon seemed to come alive and rushed towards Da Siming at great speed.

Da Siming never expected Dongjun to suddenly attack him, but he reacted quickly, dodging away and then pressing a Yin-Yang Great Handprint towards Dongjun himself.

Dongjun retaliated with a counterattack, his powerful internal energy colliding with Da Siming's large handprint.

"Boom!"

The house shook violently from the clash of their internal forces, and a large amount of dust fell from the beams and roof, forcing Dongjun to squint.

The Grand Master of Fate knew he was no match for the Eastern Lord. After exchanging a single blow, he decisively rushed out of the room and quickly fled outside the encampment.

As for those disciples, they were a bunch of useless trash, but they did help her.

Without hesitation, Dongjun Yanfei immediately waved her arm, and a coiled dragon formed from the aura of a wandering dragon wrapped around her body rushed out of the house with agile movements like drifting catkins, closely following behind Da Siming as she rushed out of the camp.

"Were those the Grand Master of Fate and the Lord of the East just now? What happened to them?"

"Are you sparring?"

"It doesn't look quite like it."

The Yin-Yang School disciples who ran out after hearing the commotion watched as Dongjun and Da Siming rushed out and disappeared in the blink of an eye, and they began to discuss among themselves.

……

"Dongjun, what exactly do you want to do? Why are you attacking me!" As she fled, seeing Dongjun getting closer and closer, and realizing that she was far inferior to him in terms of lightness skills, Da Siming, who was probably unable to escape, questioned him loudly.

"I need your help!" Dongjun replied.

"Is this how you want me to help you?" Da Siming sneered.

“This is also helping yourself!” Dongjun replied.

"I don't need it!" Da Siming laughed angrily.

"That's not up to you!" Dongjun said, and the coiled dragon that had been wrapped around her body shot out again under her control, like a cannonball, and attacked Da Siming from behind.

The Great Master of Fate tried to dodge, but the Soul Soaring Dragon, as one of the few martial arts in the Qin's Moon world that can be related to the soul, could not be avoided by mere dodging.

With a thought from Dongjun, the dragon once again chased after Da Siming.

The Great Master of Fate clearly knew the power of the Soul-Wandering Dragon, so he had to stop, gather his strength, and take out the Yin-Yang Combination Hand Seal, which he had not yet mastered. With a push of his palms, he collided with the wandering dragon released by the Eastern Lord.

"Boom!"

The Great Master of Fate was immediately thrown backward by the shockwave from the explosion.

Dongjun, however, was unaffected by this. He moved like a ghost through the dust and smoke stirred up by the clash of internal forces and instantly appeared in front of Da Siming. He used various Yin-Yang techniques to forcefully suppress Da Siming's counterattack. With a final palm strike, he knocked her to the ground, sealed her internal force, and captured Da Siming.

"Why?" The High Priestess did not resist, knowing that resistance was useless, and asked with resentment and confusion.

She now wants to know why Dongjun did this!

"I told you, I need your help," Dongjun replied with the same old words.

"What exactly is this favor that requires you to do this? Aren't you afraid that if word gets back to Donghuang Taiyi, you'll be misunderstood as having betrayed the Yin Yang School?" Da Siming pressed.

“…Perhaps betrayal isn’t so bad.” Dongjun lifted Da Siming up from the ground, remained silent for a while, and then slowly replied.

"Huh?" The Grand Master of Fate looked genuinely surprised.

"Do you know who I saw when I went out today?" Dongjun asked as he used his lightness skill to rush towards Zilan Pavilion, carrying the Grand Master of Fate in his hand.

"Who?" the High Priestess countered in agreement.

"We met the immortal." Without waiting for the Grand Master of Fate to ask, he said to himself, "That's right, it's the immortal we've been looking for. I learned some things from him that are of great importance to us and to the Yin-Yang School."

Then, without any pretense, he recounted what Ishihara Akira had said about the hidden dangers associated with their names.

"But what does this have to do with your attack on me?" the Grand Master of Fate asked, puzzled.

"I asked the immortal if there was a way to avoid being affected by reputation, and the immortal said there was, but I needed to show my sincerity," Dongjun said frankly.

"So, you attacked me, intending to use me to exchange for a way to resolve the hidden danger from the immortals?" The Grand Master of Fate wasn't stupid; he instantly understood Dongjun's intentions and couldn't help but widen his eyes to question him.

"Yes," Dongjun affirmed.

"You!" The High Priestess was furious, but after thinking for a long time, she couldn't come up with a way to curse Dongjun, so she snorted coldly and shut her mouth.

However, deep down, Da Siming was also somewhat relieved that Dongjun had entrusted himself to an immortal, someone who could resolve the hidden dangers of his reputation, instead of some random person. If he followed the immortal, he might not necessarily be unable to live a good life!

It is even possible to take this a step further and reach a realm that even Donghuang Taiyi has never reached.

Thinking about it this way, her hatred for Dongjun became less intense.

"I'm fucking insane!" Da Siming cursed inwardly, somewhat dissatisfied with her own performance.

……

And so, with Dongjun Yanfei’s superb lightness skill, it didn’t take long for the two of them to return to the now deserted Zilan Pavilion. They found Zinu and had her lead them to Shiyuan Zhang again.
