The abbot of Ziyun Temple had cultivated for many years and possessed excellent mental fortitude. No matter how turbulent his heart was, he remained much calmer than the others present.
She quickly calmed herself down and solemnly composed herself. She was about to perform a grand ceremony of worship, but she couldn't bring herself to kneel down.
Perhaps the immortal didn't want her to kneel, so she could only stand still and respectfully perform a Taoist ritual.
"Master Qingxuan of Ziyun Temple respectfully welcomes Immortal Hanshuang!"
With her taking the lead, the other female cultivators seemed to grasp at a lifeline and followed the abbess in bowing.
"Welcome, Frost Immortal!"
It was like a dream. Just when Ziyun Temple was in danger, a celestial being descended from the sky and saved them from the fire and water.
Their faith became even stronger.
I believe that there are gods watching over us.
The immortals they worship day and night must have seen it all.
Otherwise, why would a celestial being be sent to help them from the shadows?
However, none of the immortals around the Queen Mother of the West had ever heard of a person named Frost Immortal.
They then drew the illusory image of the fairy they had just seen and enshrined it next to the Queen Mother of the West.
The servants and old women who had been swatted away were even more terrified upon seeing this.
Fearing the wrath of the immortals, they all knelt on the ground, begging for mercy. They were simply following orders.
Oh no... Who would have thought that a celestial being would come to Ziyun Temple?
How can mortals possibly defeat immortals?
"Immortal, they have slandered the abbot's innocence and the reputation of my Ziyun Temple. They cannot be let off lightly!"
"The abbot has suffered a great injustice; we beg the immortal to deliver justice!" "..."
In their haste, the female cultivators knelt down and kowtowed.
Before the immortals, all schemes and tricks have nowhere to hide.
Yu Shuang summoned the two terrified old women to her side and asked them whatever she asked. They answered without daring to utter a single falsehood.
They quickly exposed the culprit.
It turns out that Master Mo, a powerful and influential man in Lin'an Prefecture, had been entangled with the abbot of Ziyun Temple. His wife, being petty, sent a cunning servant to frame the abbot of Ziyun Temple.
The female cultivators were so angry they wanted to bite someone.
Such an undeserved calamity, all because Master Mo harbored inappropriate thoughts. Madam Mo even wanted her entire Ziyun Temple to be buried with her—what a vicious scheme!
At the same time, they lamented the injustice of fate, that some people are born noble and enjoy happiness, while those in power can cause many people to suffer with just a single thought.
This world is so harsh on women. Even if they become nuns and devote themselves to spiritual cultivation, remaining detached from worldly affairs, they are still susceptible to being framed and suffering.
Would they dare to frame those Taoist priests at the Baiyun Temple next door like this?
The immortals punished these people by making them kneel for a day, and the female cultivators could then seek revenge for any wrongs they had committed.
In the words of the immortals, one must avenge every wrong done to one, otherwise one's Dao heart will be unstable, which will hinder one's cultivation.
With the support of the immortal, what were they afraid of? Several female cultivators boldly took their weapons and beat up the group of people.
They paid special attention to the two old women and the few men with dirty hands.
I felt incredibly happy; it was the first time I had ever beaten someone up, and it opened a door to a whole new world.
Yu Shuang nodded in satisfaction.
"Quickly find me a quiet and secluded place."
The abbot of Ziyun Temple personally received and led the way with utmost respect, whether out of reverence for the immortal, gratitude for the immortal clearing her name, or both.
They knew that Ziyun Temple would surely have a peaceful and prosperous future.
...
Li Dalang's home in Lijia Village.
Today is a joyous day for their family. Red lanterns and red ribbons are hung inside and outside the house, all in anticipation of the bride's arrival.
Their family wasn't wealthy, but they had fertile land and surplus grain, so the bride wouldn't go hungry after marrying into the family. That was the source of the Li family's confidence.
Although they looked down on that daughter-in-law, the fortune teller said she could have children.
They gritted their teeth and agreed to the engagement with the matchmaker.
They waited and waited, but instead of the bride, they received news that she had become an immortal and gone up the mountain to cultivate.
This news is absolutely outrageous.
No one believed it no matter what they said.
If they hadn't seen it with their own eyes, the wedding procession members wouldn't have believed it, but it was the truth.
They spent a long time vividly describing how dangerous the scene was and how ferocious the monster was. It was a time of raging winds and darkness.
The bride was radiating divine light and vanquished the monster in no time.
They revealed that the immortal most likely went to Ziyun Temple.
If you don't believe it, you can go to Ziyun Temple to find out for yourself.
Neither the Li family nor those who came to the wedding banquet thought it was a fantasy.
Immortals cannot be seen so easily.
And what a coincidence that she was the new bride of the Li family.
People are more inclined to believe that the bride was playing a trick on herself, didn't want to get married, and ran away to the mountains.
In short, this marriage will not take place today.
I'll go to Ziyun Temple first thing tomorrow morning to find out what's going on!
Li Dalang looked bitter and resentful. Getting married is a major event in life, and even such a day can turn into a disaster. How could he be so unlucky?
If they escape, once they are caught, they must be properly disciplined.
If he were truly an immortal, his heart fluttered, and countless stories of love between immortals and mortals flooded his mind.
The Conch Girl, The Fox Fairy's Gratitude, The Cowherd and the Weaver Girl, The Seven Fairies and Scholar Dong...
Having a gentle and virtuous fairy wife is like having one's ancestors' graves emitting auspicious smoke.
The news quickly spread throughout Lijia Village, and everyone was watching to see how Li Dalang's family would fare.
Before long, the news spread throughout Xinghua Village as well.
The news changed after being passed around several times—the idea that she had become a deity was just a story, and everyone was more willing to believe the amusing tale that the bride had run away halfway through the wedding.
Yu Dashan flew into a rage and picked up an axe, ready to go find the daughter who had made him lose face.
"Kill that rebellious daughter!"
Wang spent a long time trying to calm her down, but she still got punched twice in the face.
Despite her tearful attempts to dissuade him, Yu Dashan finally put down his axe in a huff.
They said they went to Ziyun Temple, so I'll go check it out tomorrow.
He refused to believe that by throwing a tantrum and embarrassing those nuns, they wouldn't hand over the person.
