In a world of immortals and swordsmen, a young Taoist named Mu Shao'ai loves flying swords, raising poison insects, drawing talismans, and refining pills. Isn't it delightful to live a care...
"I am Wei Boyang, the head of the Wei family of Tianyuan. I greet this fellow Daoist."
The figure in the tall hat and wide robe bowed and said, "Judging from your aura, fellow Daoist, you should have recently attained the Dao of the Primordial Spirit and have not yet taken up your post at the Heavenly Gate."
My true form is currently within the first level of the Heavenly Gate, and perhaps we will soon be colleagues. Fellow Daoist, would you mind hearing something from me?
Bai Cang raised an eyebrow slightly. "Are you threatening me?"
Upon hearing this, Wei Boyang waved his hands repeatedly, "Absolutely not, absolutely not."
If I were to threaten you, the Wei family of Tianyuan would likely vanish in the blink of an eye.
I pride myself on having at least some humanity; how could I possibly do something so foolish and cold-blooded?
Bai Cang smiled calmly, "Fellow Daoist is indeed a wise person. I am relieved now."
The unspoken message was: If your mother cannot produce a primordial spiritual object to my satisfaction, then your Tianyuan Wei family has no reason to exist.
As for right and wrong? There aren't that many right and wrong answers.
It's simply a matter of whose fist is bigger or stronger, or rather, whose reasoning is more powerful and authoritative.
For example, was it wrong for that Taoist priest in black robes to seek revenge after his own descendants were killed?
Of course he's right, but his "reasoning" is too weak and insignificant, which is a big mistake.
As for Bai Cang: How dare you, your mother, kill my horse?
Then I have to tell you my profound wisdom.
My sword strike, imbued with twenty years of skill, you couldn't even withstand it?
What else is there to say? Just be careful in your next life.
To be fair, Bai Cang's behavior was somewhat arrogant and domineering in the Central Plains, and it was out of step with the general environment.
If it weren't for "Teacher Tianhe" who specially arranged for him a "path to enlightenment" that would take him to travel beyond the realms, return to the Netherworld, and finally enter the Central Plains through the Northern Demon Gate, he would have been in a much better position.
Instead, according to Bai Cang's idea, they would travel from the southern border to the central lands, and then to the Northern Demonic Sect.
It's estimated that when he survives the Nine Heavens Thunder Tribulation, the Demonic Tribulation will be a much more "simple" matter.
Even so, he has already attracted the attention of more than a dozen Calamity Dao Lords who besieged him, and the intervention of Dao Integration level experts.
Finally, after destroying several major sects, including Haoran Mansion, the "eleventh great Xuanmen," they were able to overcome the demonic tribulation.
If Bai Cang were allowed to roam the Central Plains for a longer period of time, the sheer scale of his "External Demons Blocking the Path" lineup would be beyond even Bai Cang's wildest imagination.
To be an enemy of the whole world is an understatement; it's not impossible to be invincible under heaven and have enemies descend from the sky.
Even, just like the fate he glimpsed.
Because the situation has become too chaotic and unmanageable, it's not impossible that the Yang God Ranking might descend from the heavens and directly suppress him.
However, Bai Cang's "overbearing and unreasonable" demeanor did not seem out of place in the open sea.
Upon hearing Bai Cang's words, which were full of threatening implications, Wei Boyang was deeply moved.
Instead of finding him overly arrogant and domineering, she pondered it in her heart.
"Could this person be from the Central Plains? Otherwise, why would he use such euphemistic language to threaten people?"
Thinking of this, Wei Boyang immediately smiled and said, "Please rest assured, fellow Daoist, even if I have to sell my pots and pans, I will definitely find a primordial spiritual object for you."
Bai Cang smiled upon hearing this, "Judging from Fellow Daoist Wei's implication, you want me to grant you some more time?"
Asking you to pay for your life is already an act of "generosity" on my part, as I'm new here.
If you even have to delay paying for your life, or even "pay in installments"...
That would be so undignified!
As everyone knows, "Bai Daojun" has always been a respectable person.
If someone is not respectable, he can only help them to be respectable.
"Fellow Daoist, please don't misunderstand. Although my Tianyuan Wei family does not have any innate spiritual objects, I do know who has them."
Wei Boyang quickly said, "Go 30,000 li to the east, and you will find a water-based innate spiritual object in the Azure Wave Dragon King's Palace."
Fellow Daoist, you may take my name card to the Azure Wave Dragon King and request him to present this item.
The old Dragon King is known for his kindness and generosity; surely he won't refuse.
Bai Cang felt increasingly uneasy as he listened. "Could it be that the Azure Wave Dragon King is your sworn brother, someone you would die for?"
Otherwise, why would anyone offer such a precious treasure as money to save your "good grandson's" life?
Upon hearing this, Wei Boyang smiled frankly and said, "I have no connection with that Azure Wave Dragon King. We were complete strangers and have never had any dealings with each other before."
Bai Cang's face darkened. "Fellow Daoist Wei, are you perhaps making fun of me?"
Good grief, you think you can get something for nothing from me, Daoist Master?
Uncle Wei said, "Fellow Daoist, rest assured, take my name card with you, and the Old Dragon King will surely be generous and offer the innate spiritual treasure with both hands."
Bai Cang's eyes narrowed slightly, a dangerous glint flashing within them. "What if the Azure Wave Dragon King isn't kind and generous?"
Wei Boyang smiled calmly, "Then I'll take some time to come back and chop it into seventeen or eighteen pieces, and it will naturally become generous and magnanimous."
Upon hearing this, Bai Cang suddenly understood why he had stopped what he was doing as soon as Wei Boyang spoke.
So this old geezer is just like me.
Birds of a feather flock together.
With that in mind, Bai Cang readily agreed, "If that's the case, then so be it, fellow Daoist."
The key to making friends is to share the same goals and interests.
Considering their shared "fondness," Bai Cang didn't mind and trusted Wei Boyang this once.
If he betrays this trust...
Sorry, Bai Cang is not prepared to give him that chance.
He was simply planning to pull off an even more outrageous scheme and had no intention of giving Wei Boyang a chance to "keep his promise."
Without saying much, Wei Boyang conjured a large red and gold name card and pushed it towards Bai Cang.
Bai Cang casually took it and put it away, saying as if it were nothing, "Now that we've shaken hands and made peace, that fellow Daoist in black robes won't harbor any resentment because of this, will he?"
Wei Boyang feigned anger, "I've disliked that guy for a long time. If it weren't for my wife's dying wish to take good care of her younger brother, how could I have tolerated him until now?"
Now that he dares to collude with extraterrestrial evil, I will surely seize him before the Heavenly Gate Guardian and sentence him to a grave crime!
As for the charge of "colluding with evil spirits" being proven true, at most he would be suppressed and imprisoned for thousands of years, and he could even redeem himself through meritorious service.
Wei Boyang felt there was no need to explain it so clearly.
They will either be suppressed for thousands of years or be completely annihilated, body and soul.
He believed that his good-for-nothing brother-in-law could tell which was more important.
However, Bai Cang didn't care about these trivial matters, so he didn't investigate further.
He asked with some curiosity, "Extraterrestrial monster? You mean that golden-armored man?"
Wei Boyang said, "If extraterrestrial evil spirits of the primordial spirit level or above want to descend to the Great Crimson Heaven through the Heavenly Gate, the only way is to disperse their physical form and descend with only a wisp of evil thought, possessing the beings of this world."
"There are many rebellious cults in the outer seas, such as the Maitreya Cult, the White Lotus Cult, the Three Yang Cult, and the Fragrance Cult. They are all formed by extraterrestrial evil spirits possessing and bewitching other cultivators..."
