Become a disciple of Taoist Priest Four Eyes

Chapter 883 Jiangling City, Huayang Palace

…

"Get up, but King Liang asked you to come?"

"Exactly. King Liang was overjoyed when he learned that the real person's jade toe had arrived in Jiangling City. He immediately ordered the young general to come here to welcome the real person's Dharma to Huayang Palace. The King of Liang, along with all the ministers, held a banquet in honor of the real person."

"I understand. Could you please lead the way?"

"Please, please."

Cao Shuang asked his soldiers to give up three horses, but Xu Junming and the others did not ride on them.

Huayang Palace is the royal palace of Liang Wang Xiao Xian. It is located in the center of Jiangling City. It was originally the old palace of Western Liang. It was destroyed in the war when the Sui Dynasty unified the Chen Dynasty in the south.

Xiao Mian rebelled against the Sui Dynasty and became queen, and rebuilt the Huayang Palace. It has only been more than ten years since then.

Xu Junming has seen the majestic and gorgeous palace many times. I don’t think there is anything strange about Huayang Palace.

However, after he passed through the city gate and passed through the wide bluestone square, a large number of Liang Kingdom's monarchs and ministers were already lined up in front of the steps to greet him.

Standing at the front was a tall middle-aged man wearing a nine-dragon robe, an imperial crown on his head, and a green dragon pendant on his waist. He had a majestic and luxurious temperament.

Seeing him, Chen Ling, who was walking behind, felt a little close to him inexplicably.

Suddenly I was tapped twice on the shoulder. I turned around and saw that it was Master.

There was a soothing power in the clear eyes, which quickly calmed down Chen Ling's originally impetuous mood.

"The real person is finally here. I have been thinking about Xiao Xian very hard these past three years."

Xiao Mian took the initiative to greet him.

The words are sincere and extremely close. For those who didn’t know, they thought Xu Junming was his biological father.

"Prince Liang is welcome."

"The real person has come from far away. I have already set up a banquet in Chongxian Hall to welcome the real person and wash away the dust."

Xu Junming didn’t refuse either.

Under Xiao Mian's attentive reception, the group came to Chongxian Hall.

In the grand hall, rare delicacies are displayed on neatly arranged long tables.

Xu Junming sat in the first place on the left, second only to Liang Wang Xiao Xian in the middle.

"Come, let us raise a toast to the real person."

The monarchs and ministers of the Liang Kingdom raised their wine glasses at the same time.

Xu Junming didn’t refuse either.

After everyone drank it all.

"Master, you will definitely have to spend more time when you come to Jiangling City this time."

"The kindness of King Liang is deeply appreciated. But Xu Junming has to go to Dongsheng Shenzhou to attend the Yuntai Fairy Fair, so I'm afraid he won't be able to stay long."

"I just regret that Xiao Mian has low qualifications and it is difficult to achieve success in practice. Otherwise, he would have to be like a real person, traveling around the world and gathering with immortals and gods." Xiao Mian sighed.

"The King of Liang is the supreme leader of the Ninth Five-Year Plan. He holds the power of the world. How can he be compared to us and other people in the mountains and wild areas?"

"The real person is too modest. No matter how powerful he is, after a hundred years, it will only be a loss of loess. That is not as good as the real person who lives the same life as the heaven and the earth, and decays with the sun and the moon."

"If King Liang is willing to give up the position of human king, Pindao can also let King Liang enjoy a long life." Xu Junming said calmly.

"Can't I, the king, do it now?"

"Cultivating the Tao requires meditation. His Majesty, Prince Liang, has so many things to do every day, how can he find the time to realize the Tao?"

"As far as I know, the population of the land under Zhenren Chongshan Academy is no less than that of my Liang Kingdom. Why is it that Zhenren, as the head of the Academy and in charge of great power, is not affected at all?"

Looking at Xiao Mian with bright eyes, Xu Junming said calmly.

"Although I am the head of the courtyard, I have never interfered with secular affairs. When I deal with common affairs, I have my own disciples to take care of them. If the King of Liang follows suit, I will not hesitate to teach him."

Xiao Mian laughed and let go.

Just kidding, cultivating immortality and pursuing immortality are just accessories and seasonings of power. If power is lost, what is the meaning of these?

With Xiao Mian's polite greetings and Xu Junming's respectful concessions, the meal was a feast for both host and guest.

After the banquet, Xiao Mian arranged for the three masters and apprentices to live in a palace specially designed to receive distinguished guests.

As night fell, most of Huayang Palace fell into darkness.

Except for the forest guards wearing helmets and carrying armor, few people were walking.

Qianqing Hall is the core of Huayang Palace and the main place where Xiao Mian stays.

Wearing a dragon robe, he did not go to the harem to look for signs tonight. He kicked out all the servants and sat cross-legged on the dragon bed, waiting quietly.

At midnight, a trace of black ghostly energy flew out from the ground.

Floating around, he gradually transformed into the figure of the Taiyin Ghost Emperor.

Xiao Mian quickly stepped forward and bowed to salute.

"See Benefactor."

"I thought you climbed onto the high branches of Chongshan Academy and forgot about me."

"I don't dare. If it weren't for my benefactor back then, I would have died in the back alleys of Baling County. I wouldn't have the high position of King Liang today."

"As long as you know."

"Xu Junming is in your palace?"

"Yes. His subordinates arranged for him to stay in the palace, along with one of his disciples and one of his disciples."

"Well done. Tomorrow, Ao Chong, the Dragon King of Dongting Lake, will invite him to a banquet. You must take him with you."

"I obey." After a respectful response, "My benefactor, I don't have much antidote to the ghost poison in my body. Can you give me some more?"

"I came in a hurry and didn't bring much with me. You use these twelve pills first. When you kill Xu Junming tomorrow, I will give you more."

As he spoke, a blue and white porcelain bottle flew towards him.

"Thank you, Lord."

Take it with both hands.

"Remember my instructions."

"yes."

The ghost energy dissipated, and Tuoba Feng's figure slowly disappeared.

It wasn't until there was no trace of ghost energy in the entire hall that Xiao Mian slowly straightened up. Looking at the porcelain bottle in his hand, a strong anger appeared in his eyes.

After taking a deep breath, his expression gradually calmed down.

"Is there someone coming?"

A eunuch wearing a brocade robe quickly opened the door and walked in.

"What are your orders, Your Majesty?"

"Bring Concubine Li, Concubine Zhen, and Concubine Wu."

"According to the order."

"etc."

Stopped the eunuch who was about to turn around and leave.

"Do I still have a 'Heaven's Heart Stone' in my inner treasury?"

"Exactly."

"Take my handwritten edict and take it out. By the way, take the rainbow grass and the Taiyi Spiritual Water that was just put into the warehouse last month and send them to Xu Zhenren. Say that this is my gratitude to Chongshan Academy for killing Chu. A gift to slay demons and maintain peace in the place.”

Although he didn't know why the always stingy King of Chu would be so open-minded, the old eunuch who had been in the palace for a long time knew very well what to ask and what not to ask.

After responding respectfully, he bowed his body and exited the door.

"Chongshan Academy, Taiyin Ghost Sect, hum!"

Strong hatred echoed in the hall along with a cold snort.

"Master, I see that although Xiao Mian is respectful on the surface, there is an air of hostility in the corners of his eyes and brows," Sun Shi said.

"We took away the two counties under our control. Chongshan Academy has penetrated every inch of the land under his rule. No monarch will like a power outside of our control."

"But that Xiao Mian has a ghostly look on his face, and he seems to have some connection with the Taiyin Ghost Sect."

Sun Shi nodded and said: "It seems to be the rare black-haired ghost Gu in the ghost world."

"Only this kind of Taiyi Immortal Gu, which is rare in the Gu Dao, can control Xiao Mian, the lord of a country."

"It seems that although the Taiyin Ghost Sect has been subdued for three years, it has been hiding behind the Chu State."

Xu Junming nodded.

"As expected, the old ghost was behind the surveillance we were subjected to along the way."

"Master, the other party is deliberately planning to let us go. Jiangling City is too dangerous. Should we exit first?"

Smiling and patting him on the shoulder.

"no need to worry."

"The Taiyin Ghost Sect is like a poisonous snake hiding in the dark. If it is not removed, it will always be a threat to our Chongshan Academy."

Sun Shi understood, "That's why Master put himself in danger to lure him out of the Taiyin ghosts?"

"There is a reason for this, but I want him to attack me first. With an excuse, I can completely eradicate the Taiyin ghosts. Otherwise, the teacher will be unknown and easily criticized by others, especially the Buddhist sect."

Although the power of the Taiyin Ghost Realm is strong, Xu Junming still has ways to deal with it.

But the impact of killing a Daluo monk is too great. If the master is famous, it can reduce a lot of trouble.

‘Dong dong…! ’

There was a sudden knock on the door.

"who?"

"Zhenzhen Xu is here, and Guan Yun of the Zajia family has sent a treasure to Zhenren according to your Majesty's order."

"etc."

Xu Junming fluttered his hands and used several seals to remove the restrictions in the room.

"come in."

"Squeak."

With a hoarse friction sound, the eunuch beside Xiao Mian opened the door and walked in.

Behind him were three young eunuchs.

Each little eunuch held a tray in his hand, covered with red cloth, which was obviously not a mortal object.

"Your Majesty is sitting in front of you, holding a pen, and the eunuch oversees the cloud. See Master Xu."

"My father-in-law is here late at night. Do you have anything important to do?"

"Your Majesty said: Chongshan Academy has done a great job in slaying demons and ensuring peace in the Chu Kingdom. He specially asked the Zajia family to choose three gifts from their underwear and bring them to the real person to show His Majesty's gratitude."

With a wave of his hand, the three young eunuchs hurriedly walked forward.

Opening up the red cloth on the far left, a long-necked blue and white porcelain vase about a foot tall appeared in front of me.

Guan Yun picked up the porcelain bottle and shook it briefly, and a sound like a surging ocean wave sounded from it.

"The name of this treasure is 'Han Hai Ling Shui', the essence of ten thousand waters, the best of Taiyi. One drop can transform a lake thousands of miles away. It has endless wonderful uses. Please appreciate it."

After handing the porcelain vase to Xu Junming, Guan Yun walked to the left, lifted the red cloth on it, and revealed a jade box.

With a flick of his finger, a flash of spiritual light flew into the jade box and instantly became transparent.

It can be clearly seen that there is a light silver spiritual grass with long slender leaves growing in it.

"This grass is called 'Rainbow Grass', and it is the main ingredient for refining Taiyi-level healing medicine."

Finally, the red cloth in the middle was lifted, and a pale golden stone placed in a wooden box appeared in front of Xu Junming.

"Tianxin stone?" Xu Junming asked in surprise.

"The real person's good vision is the Tianxin Stone. This is a pure Yang Daluo spiritual material. If the real person can find a good craftsman, he can use this stone to make a Daluo spiritual treasure."

"This Three Treasures is a gift from my king to the real person, please accept it."

After waving to Sun Shi to take the treasure, he said, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for me."

After Guan Yun nodded, he said respectfully: "The Za family has to go back to report to His Majesty, so I won't disturb the real person and take my leave."

"Father-in-law, walk slowly."
