Chapter 79 Wait, this doesn't seem right
Taoist Priest Li said in a neither humble nor arrogant manner: "Your Majesty, I would like to ask for a favor to bring along disciples from the Shenxiao Sect. No, not just the Shenxiao Sect. No, I should say that regardless of faction, any Taoist who respects the Great Xia Imperial Master can come to Great Xia to practice Taoism and contribute to Great Xia."
Crowd: !!!
Taoist Fang couldn't believe his ears. They were trying to undermine the foundations of the Shenxiao Sect and the Longhu Dojo!
He suddenly pulled Taoist Li and said, "You are crazy..."
Before he could finish his words, he was frightened by the fierce look in Taoist Li's eyes and shut up.
Yuan Ruan: [Ah, this... He must know the truth. ]
System: [Clicked. Ah Ruan is great! With such a gunpowder master joining, once we really develop gunpowder shells that can kill people, maybe we can successfully grow potatoes like potatoes, Daxia’s national fortune +1+1+1...! Oh, more than that, with gunpowder shells, Daxia will definitely win the war, and the territory will increase again, vacal... Not only can we unlock the next magical power, maybe we can unlock the next magical power! Awesome! Ah Ruan, we must let him join. ]
Yuanruan: […You gave me a picture cake again, but I ate it! I have to think about what to do! ]
Courtiers: !!!
Brother System! You are really good at drawing this big cake!
They haven’t even finished the previous big pie yet, and now I’m drawing another big one for them!
The court officials all looked at the emperor: Agree quickly! Agree quickly!
emperor:……
The prince almost laughed out loud. It seemed that Yuan Ruan's presence really made the court officials relax. Half a year ago, who would dare to force his father with their eyes?
The emperor was silent for a moment, then said, "Yes."
Yuanruan: [Great! Brother, you’re so nice! ]
Courtiers: Great! Your Majesty is awesome!
Wait for the emperor and his entourage to leave the side hall.
Taoist Fang was still confused.
At this time, he saw Taoist Li with an expressionless face waving his hand: "Come, come here."
Taoist Fang finally came to his senses, took two steps forward and growled, "Brother, you have been away from Dragon Tiger Dojo for three years. How can you give orders without my permission? Ouch... Ouch, how can you hit me? Hiss, ah... Don't hit me in the face! Ah ah,... Help!"
The eunuch outside the door closed the door more tightly to avoid too much noise.
…
Less than half an hour later, Jinyi Prison.
A group of Taoists sat upright, looking nervous, and some of them couldn't stop shaking their feet.
Some people closed their eyes and muttered: "Jade Emperor, Yuanshi Tianzun, Lingbao Tianzun, Hou Tu Huang Di Zhi... please bless me!"
Someone nearby couldn't stand the nagging and couldn't help but say, "It's more about praying to the gods than praying too much. If you pray so much, the gods will probably fight first, and they won't care about a mortal like you."
The man choked instantly.
At this moment, the door was opened with a creak, and many Taoists looked over nervously and expectantly.
The next second, their pupils trembled, and all the Taoists shouted in surprise: "It's you?! Why are you here?"
It turned out to be Taoist Master Zhou whom I hadn’t seen for several days.
Taoist Priest Zhou smiled and bowed, saying, "My fellow Taoists, it's been a long time since we last met. Are you having a good time?"
Someone gnashed his teeth and said, "You traitor, you left us to enjoy your life, how dare you ..." Before he could finish his words, several Taoist priests nearby covered his mouth.
At this time, the Taoist priest who was on good terms with Taoist priest Zhou walked over quickly and said, "Daoyou, can you tell me how Daxia plans to treat us? They can't keep detaining us forever."
Taoist Priest Zhou said gently, "How can he be detained forever?"
Seeing that the Taoists' expressions had softened, he gently dropped another bomb, "The tyrant of the Great Xia Kingdom cannot be kept alive forever, and he will probably die."
The pupils of fellow Taoists trembled: Look at what you are saying, are you talking like a human being? !
Taoist Master Zhou added, "But fellow Taoists, don't worry. The Grand Master of Daxia can save things from the air. He is the reincarnation of a great master of my sect. As long as you join my sect, I can naturally lead you brothers out."
The fellow Taoists were speechless. Switching to another sect was a big taboo, but now their lives were on the line, and everyone had different ideas on how to make the decision.
Just at this moment, the door was pushed open again.
He Xi's familiar voice rang out: "How could Great Xia be so overbearing? As a native of Xia, how come I don't know about this?"
After hearing the voice, the Taoist friends seemed to have seen the backbone, their eyes brightened, and they stood up in unison:
"Master Li! It's Master Li who has come to save us!"
"Master Li, you are here! I am finally relieved!"
"Master Li, you are still reliable! You are the only one who fulfilled the three-day agreement! Wait, there is another person in the three-day agreement?"
…
The Taoist friends were having a great time when a Taoist priest looked over and asked, "Master Li, where is Master Fang?"
Taoist Priest Li smiled gently and said, "I'm afraid Taoist Priest Fang will break his promise."
The man was startled, and then he relaxed when he saw that Taoist Li was gentle, and asked with a little complaint: "Did Taoist Fang go back to Shenxiao Sect to report first?"
Taoist Priest Li shook his head: "He committed murder and has been brought to justice."
Fellow Taoists: ???
What?
The wind is too strong? They didn't seem to hear clearly.
"Tsk." Taoist Master Zhou suddenly laughed and looked at everyone, "So fellow Taoists, have you decided to join our Shushan Sect now?"
Fellow Taoists:!!!
What?
Is this a threat?
"Fellow Daoist Zhou, what you just said was very inappropriate." Taoist Priest Li shook his head at Taoist Priest Zhou, then nodded gently to everyone, "Fellow Daoist Fang committed a crime in the past, and it has nothing to do with the present."
All the fellow Taoists breathed a sigh of relief.
Taoist Zhou did not give Taoist Li face like he did in the past, and his tone was thorny: "Taoist Li, this is Da Xia, not Longhu Dojo. I am the first person to know and join Da Xia's national master! Don't think of telling me what to do by relying on your qualifications in Longhu Dojo."
Taoist Priest Li chuckled and said meaningfully: "Taoist Priest Zhou, you are not from Xia Country, you don't understand the true power of the Great Xia National Master."
Taoist Zhou laughed angrily and pointed at himself: "I don't understand? The ability to save things from the air is the ability of our great ancestor. The Great Xia State Master must be the reincarnation of a great man from my Shushan Sect. How can I not understand?! I think you are the one who doesn't understand."
Taoist Priest Li shook his head and said, "When you recognize yourself as a Daxia person and become a sixth-rank official, you can argue with me then."
Taoist Zhou sneered disdainfully: "What a joke! Who seeks the truth and an official position? Just wait, I will definitely be the one who has the trust of the young imperial teacher more."
…
Taoist Priest Li and Taoist Priest Zhou were arguing. At first, the Taoists were cheering for Taoist Priest Li, but as they listened, the expressions of many Taoists became confused.
Wait, this isn't right!
Master Li, aren't you on our side?
Why do you two talk like two dogs fighting over territory, arguing about who is the owner's most beloved pet?
This isn't right!
