I started as an exile, and I relied on space to support my family of loyal heroes.

The nine Taoist priests were waiting for Xiao Yunzhan's instructions, ready to go up to the altar at the auspicious time.

As a result, they suddenly heard Ma Ximing's words, and the nine Taoist priests frowned and looked at Ma Ximing.

Hate!!!

These nine people have been praying for rain these times. Who does Ma Ximing want to push down?!

When Ma Ximing looked up, he saw the nine Taoist priests staring at him with dissatisfaction.

He pulled the corners of his lips slightly and looked at the Taoist priest with the worst ability.

"Your ability----"

"Master Ma, please don't disturb my Taoist heart!"

The Taoist priest with the worst ability frowned and interrupted Ma Ximing when he saw that Ma Ximing was staring at him.

He's just the least capable among the nine people, but he has no problem praying for rain.

"It's not the first time for the nine of us to pray for rain. We are all very experienced. There's no need for you to worry, Taoist Ma..."

The Taoist priest with the worst ability looked Ma Ximing up and down, frowned,

"And Master Ma, your attire doesn't suit us. You should at least be clean to show respect to the God King..."

Ma Ximing was stunned for a moment, lowered his eyes to look at the gray clothes on his body, and pulled the corners of his lips awkwardly.

He raised his eyelids and looked at the nine Taoist priests wearing Taoist robes and holding whisks in their hands. He moved his mouth twice.

"When it comes to praying for rain, ability is more important. As for clothing, I can also exchange with you. Our body shapes are similar..."

"I won't do it!" The Taoist priest with the worst ability blurted out anxiously, and gave Ma Ximing an angry look.

Prince Yongchang and General Long said that they would give them nine titles in the future.

They don't care about these empty names, but they still need to be admired by people all over the world.

"You..." Ma Ximing looked at the Taoist priest speechlessly.

Why is this Taoist priest so stubborn? He is really afraid that something might happen to these Taoist priests.

When he thought of the nine Taoist priests who sacrificed their lives to pray for rain in the capital, his heart ached.

"I'm doing this for you..."

"Master Ma." Xiao Yunzhan interrupted their conversation with a smile.

Ma Ximing paused, closed his mouth, turned to look at Xiao Yunzhan, and said, "Please let King Yongchang decide."

"I am really worried about the safety of the Taoist priests, so..."

"I know." Xiao Yunzhan smiled faintly.

The eldest brother told him that the attempt to pray for rain in the capital had failed and nine Taoist priests with outstanding abilities had died.

That's why Ma Ximing is so worried about the Taoist priests.

After all, there were too many Taoists who sacrificed their lives praying for rain due to drought. He could understand Ma Ximing's appreciation for talent.

Xiao Yunzhan looked at Ma Ximing and continued,

"Master Ma has been exhausted from the long journey, his health is definitely not as good as the nine Taoist priests."

"I know your abilities, but you should take good care of your body first. There will be plenty of opportunities in the future."

The nine Taoist priests have all drunk the magical water that can eliminate plague, and their physical fitness is much better than Ma Ximing's.

Moreover, Lin Yiran also secretly put detoxifying pills in the well water of Shiquan City.

They stayed in Shiquan City for so long, and their bodies were nourished by the water of Shiquan City and became particularly strong.

Even though Shiquan City suffered such a severe natural disaster, no civilians died of illness.

This was all thanks to Lin Yiran who put the magic medicine into the well water in advance, thus saving the people of Shiquan City.

“......I..." Ma Ximing was just about to say that he was in good health and could hold on.

He saw the nine Taoist priests straighten their backs and tense their muscles, with the strong muscle lines faintly visible through their Taoist robes.

Ma Ximing couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth when seeing this scene.

His body is indeed not as strong as those Taoist priests.

Ma Ximing took a deep breath and looked at the Taoist priest with the worst ability.

"If you can't hold on, don't force it. I can always replace you..."

Although his body is not as strong as those Taoist priests, his abilities can make up for it.

He ate well and slept well last night, and he felt very good. He could definitely continue to pray for rain.

The Taoist priest with the worst ability glanced at Ma Ximing indifferently and uttered a reluctant "Hmm~"

snort!

Who are you looking down on?

Why couldn't he hold on?

He is very experienced, so there will be no problem at all.

Besides, they only needed to ask for Wuyun to come, and he had no problem with that.

Xiao Yunzhan glanced at the Taoist priests with a faint smile, then turned to look at the Xiao family members standing on the pavilion opposite.

The Xiao family's relatives followed behind the Xiao family and looked at the telescopes in their hands with curiosity.

Lin Yiran caught Xiao Yunzhan's gaze and raised her chin slightly towards him.

The streets of Wuyi City were already filled with kneeling people, and it was exactly eight o'clock.

Eight o'clock is considered an auspicious time, so you can start praying for rain.
