Li Daoyi, who comes from a Taoist background, goes into the mountains to look for the green ox he has raised since childhood and accidentally transmigrates to the world of The Smiling, Proud Wander...
Sure enough, just a few breaths later, a rainbow descended from the sky, and the group of Jianglong appeared after the rainbow.
"Eeya." Mengmeng stuck out her tongue and hid behind Ji Fa.
"Mengmeng, you've been naughty again." Daji walked over and picked Mengmeng up in her arms, and the little girl just giggled.
"Sigh, it seems I'll have to send you back to Chaoge." Jianglong sighed as he looked at Mengmeng.
"Hmph, I'm not going back," the little guy pouted.
"I'll go in with you," Saitama said, looking at Xiqi City not far away.
Ji Fa glanced at Saitama, then nodded without refusing again.
Mengmeng wanted to go with them, but Daji held her tightly. Although the little one could easily break free, she ultimately gave Jianglong some face.
"I want to go to the South China Sea," Mengmeng said, stating her condition to Jianglong.
"South China Sea?" Jianglong was taken aback.
"Yes, I'm going to find Wutian the Bald and Guanyin the Goddess," Mengmeng said.
Jianglong was stunned for a moment, then remembered the great god Wutian. When Wutian appeared, he had already left Chaoge, but he sensed something and also sensed the power of Buddhism, knowing that Wutian had founded Buddhism.
However, he was surprised by Guanyin, which meant that Cihang had already been taken into Buddhism by Wutian.
“Interesting. Okay, I can go with you.” Jianglong nodded.
"Giggle..." The little guy immediately became happy.
The city gates were now under stricter security than usual, with the soldiers rigorously checking everyone entering the city. Ji Fa and Saitama slowly approached from the main road, Saitama's shiny bald head attracting everyone's attention from afar.
"That is..."
"It's the Second Young Master, the Second Young Master is back."
Someone recognized Ji Fa and immediately called out.
"It really is the Second Young Master."
Ji Fa, who had been missing for several months, reappeared. The soldiers quickly left the city to drive away the surrounding people and make way for him.
"This humble general, Wu Ji, pays his respects to the Second Young Master." The garrison commander hurriedly stepped forward to greet him.
"Get up, I'm going back," Ji Fa said calmly.
"Please, young master."
Ji Fa and Qi Yu were not stopped at all and entered the city in full view of everyone. The moment the two entered the city, the news was also sent in. Ji Chang in the Marquis's mansion soon received the news of Ji Fa's return.
"Father, it's my second brother, he's back!" Boyi Kao excitedly rushed into the study of Ji Chang, the Marquis of Xibo.
Ji Chang, who was drafting an official document, paused for a moment before continuing to write.
"It's good that you're back," Ji Chang said calmly.
“Father, a mysterious person has come with him as well,” Boyi Kao said hurriedly.
"That bald weirdo?" Ji Chang asked.
“Yes,” Boyi Kao bowed and replied.
"Send a message to Kunlun," Ji Chang said in a deep voice.
“Father, shouldn’t we wait a bit? That person might not be an enemy,” Boyi Kao said, bewildered.
After hearing this, the Marquis of Xibo thought for a moment and then nodded.
Bo Yikao immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
Before long, a servant came to report that Ji Fa had entered the Marquis's residence.
Inside the Marquis's residence, Ji Fa looked at the home he had lived in for more than ten years and felt a sense of unfamiliarity for some reason. He had only been away for a few months, but it felt like a lifetime had passed.
"Second Young Master."
"The Marquis requests your presence in the study."
An old man stepped forward and bowed, saying, "This person is an elder of the Ji family."
"Understood." Ji Fa nodded.
The people around Ji Fa were all looking at him with some surprise. Apart from his appearance not changing, Ji Fa gave people a very different feeling. Most importantly, his hair had been cut and was only an inch long.
Led by the clan elder, Ji Fa followed towards the study, with Qi Yu swaggering along with his hands on his head. His strange bodysuit and white cloak drew whispers from the crowd.
After passing through the heavily guarded area, the group finally arrived at Ji Chang's study in the Marquis's mansion.
Ji Chang had been waiting for a long time. Bo Yikao was standing behind him. When he saw Ji Fa come in, Bo Yikao smiled and winked at Ji Fa.
"Father." Ji Fa bowed deeply to Ji Chang.
Saitama looked around the study with curiosity, marveling at the densely packed books all around him.
"Sigh, you've finally grown up." Looking at Ji Fa's strange attire and hairstyle, Ji Chang didn't scold him, but said with a complicated expression.
"And who is this?" Ji Chang then looked at Saitama.
“Oh, I am Ji Fa’s teacher, a hero,” Saitama said, looking at Ji Chang.
"Teacher?" Ji Chang was taken aback and turned to look at Boyi Kao, who also looked shocked.
"May I ask who you are, cultivator?" Ji Chang asked.
“A cultivator? No, I’m a hero.” Saitama shook his head.
“Father, the teacher is not a cultivator; he should be considered a martial artist,” Ji Fa said.
A hint of disappointment flashed in Ji Chang's eyes, and he shook his head imperceptibly.
"Alright, now that you're back, just stay home," Ji Chang said helplessly, clearly not wanting to ask any more questions.
At this moment, Ji Fa immediately knelt down.
"Father, I humbly request that you withdraw your troops and not become enemies with the King," Ji Fa said in a deep voice.
Upon hearing this, Ji Chang's eyes sharpened instantly, and Bo Yikao was also startled, desperately trying to signal to Ji Fa with his eyes.
However, Ji Fa still raised his head and looked firmly at Ji Chang.
"Why?" Ji Chang asked.
“Your Majesty is merciful. We all know about the changes in Chaoge over the years. Why does Father still rebel? Is there a villain behind this? Is it one of those Taoist practitioners?” Ji Fa said.
"Shut up! Stop talking nonsense! What do you know at such a young age? Get out of here!" Ji Chang roared angrily.
"Second brother, stop talking nonsense." At this moment, Boyi Kao also hurriedly stepped forward to support Ji Fa, trying to pull him up.
"Well..."
However, Ji Fa was like a mountain at this moment, and no matter how hard he tried, the other party remained unmoved.
“Second brother…” Boyi Kao looked at Ji Fa in disbelief, not understanding what had happened to him, and how he seemed like a different person.
"Please, Father, rescind your order," Ji Fa continued.
"Do you still acknowledge me as your father? Do you still acknowledge Xiqi?" Ji Chang asked coldly.
"Of course, but your son knows he is of the human race and naturally must think of the people of the world. I implore Father to withdraw the troops." Ji Fa finished speaking and bowed deeply.
Ji Chang immediately stood up, his face filled with extreme anger.
"Fine, fine, so you've finally learned to lecture me," Ji Chang laughed angrily.
“Father, at this very moment, tens of thousands of soldiers are dying. They are so innocent. It’s not worth it at all. Do you really covet the throne?” Ji Fa continued.
"Bold."
"Second brother."
Ji Chang and Boyi Kao shouted at the same time.
However, Ji Fa was not afraid at all and still looked up at Ji Chang. At this moment, Ji Chang seemed to feel that the son in front of him was a complete stranger.
The atmosphere reached freezing point all afternoon.
"Splash..."
Hundreds of soldiers in black appeared outside the study in an instant, led by a shadowy figure.
“Oh…” Saitama turned around and glanced back.
"Father, please calm down." Bo Yikao then knelt down beside Ji Fa and kowtowed to Ji Chang.
"My second brother is just worried; he doesn't mean any harm."
"Brother, stop talking. I know exactly what I'm doing. It's you guys who have disappointed me the most," Ji Fa said in a deep voice.
"If I don't agree, will you break ties with your father?" Ji Chang said coldly.
Ji Fa was stunned for a moment, staring blankly at Ji Chang, at his elderly father, and felt a pang of pain in his heart.
"Father, I am saving Xiqi. We are no match for the King." Ji Fa sighed softly.
Just as Ji Chang was about to speak, a sudden gust of wind appeared outside.
"Watch out!" the dark figure outside shouted a warning, and all the soldiers in black immediately turned around.
Ji Fa also sensed something and quickly got up and went outside.
"Hmm?" Saitama also followed and walked outside.
A figure appeared in the sky above the Marquis's mansion. Dressed in white, he was handsome and looked to be around twenty years old. He held a three-pointed, double-edged spear in his hand and had a closed eye on his forehead.
Ji Chang and Boyi Kao also came out at this time.
"Be careful, my lord," the shadowy figure said.
Ji Chang waved his hand and bowed to the sky.
"Who is this extraordinary person?"
"I am Yang Jian, a disciple of the Jade Cauldron Immortal of the Chan Sect. I greet the Marquis of Xibo," the young man said, bowing in the air.
After speaking, he slowly fell from the sky.
Upon hearing this, Ji Chang's expression softened slightly, and he smiled.
"So you're a disciple of the Chan Sect. You are indeed a handsome man," Ji Chang said with a smile.
"This kid is strong," Saitama whispered to Ji Fa. Saitama sensed Yang Jian's powerful physique.
"What are the people of the Chan Sect doing in my Xiqi?" Ji Fa said with some disgust.
"Second brother." Boyi Kao quickly stepped forward and tugged at Ji Fa.
Yang Jian smiled slightly, not caring at all, and bowed to Ji Chang again.
"Yang Jian was ordered by his master to go down the mountain to help the Marquis achieve his hegemony."
The Marquis of Xibo was overjoyed and quickly stepped forward to help Yang Jian up.
"Excellent, excellent, excellent! You truly keep your word. I have been waiting for this for a long time," Ji Chang laughed heartily. Previously, Yuanshi had promised to send his disciples to assist him.
After saying this, Ji Chang pulled Yang Jian up and headed towards the study.
"Come on in, let's talk inside."
Yang Jian let Ji Chang pull him along, then turned back to look at Ji Fa with a hint of doubt in his eyes.
“Father,” Ji Fa called out.
Ji Chang ignored him and went straight into his study.
"Second brother, stop talking, you go back first." Bo Yikao patted Ji Fa, and then followed him into the study.
Ji Fa's expression changed slightly, his fists clenched, and his anger level soared.
Just then, Saitama placed his hand on his shoulder.
"Let's go," Saitama said softly.
"Teacher, I..." Ji Fa said somewhat unwillingly.
"Are you going to destroy this place?" Saitama retorted.
Ji Fa was stunned. Of course, he couldn't do that, and he lowered his head dejectedly.
“Come with me, let’s leave this place,” Saitama said again.
Ji Fa looked up at Saitama, at his teacher whom he had only known for a few months, and it seemed that Saitama understood him better than his father and brother.
"Hmm." Ji Fa nodded heavily, as if he had made a decision in his heart.
