"Ding ding..."
While still in the air, Li Daoyi received a continuous stream of system notifications.
The two fell from the sky one after the other, landing right at the entrance of Chunyang Temple.
People looked at the two in awe, when the golden wheel of the sun and moon shone brightly, its white and silver light dazzling the eyes of those around them.
"Collect," Xuan Tianzong shouted.
The golden wheel of the sun and moon instantly disappeared into Xuan Tianzong's body.
"Daoist Master." Wanyan Lie hurried over, his face full of excitement. How could he not be excited to witness an immortal appear in the world with his own eyes?
"Hmm." Li Dao nodded, then gave Qiu Chuji a look before leading Xuan Tianzong inside.
"Gentlemen, please return," Qiu Chuji said. Several disciples then came out and blocked the gate.
"I'm not in a hurry for that." Wanyan Lie said with an awkward smile, shamelessly leading his daughter and ignoring the obstruction of several disciples as he re-entered Chunyang Temple. Because of his status, the Quanzhen disciples could not stop him.
Just then, a figure flew rapidly towards them; it was none other than the Golden Wheel Monk.
He disregarded Qiu Chuji's feelings and leaped directly from the roof into the Taoist temple.
"Sigh..." Qiu Chuji shook his head helplessly, then turned and entered the Taoist temple.
Although the people around were driven away, they still did not leave, and more and more people came to Chunyang Temple from other parts of the city.
Fortunately, the army brought by Wanyan Lie had completely surrounded the Taoist temple within a radius of 100 meters.
Outside the Sanqing Hall, Li Daoyi sat in front of a stone table, pouring tea into the two cups in front of him.
Xuan Tianzong stood respectfully at the front.
Dongfang Bubai, Mu Nianci, and Yang Guo watched Xuantian Sect with curiosity from the side.
Just then, Wanyan Lie walked in with his daughter. He didn't say anything, but just smiled and nodded at Li Daoyi, then stood aside with Wanyan Ping.
"Whoosh..."
Immediately afterwards, the Golden Wheel Monk also jumped down from the roof. Xuan Tianzong glanced back at him, and the Golden Wheel Monk's heart suddenly clenched.
"Greetings, Daoist Master. I have met this immortal." Jinlun hurriedly bowed, his posture even lower than the last time he came.
"The Dharma King is quite fast," Li Daoyi joked.
Jinlun gave an awkward laugh and stood next to Wanyan Lie.
At this moment, Qiu Chuji also walked in. Seeing that everyone had arrived, Li Daoyi began his own performance.
"Has Bai Mei already ascended to heaven?" Li Daoyi asked.
"Reporting to Senior, Senior White Eyebrows has already ascended to immortality."
"Dan Chenzi has a murderous aura about him, which must be due to the influence of the Blood Demon. That's why you held back so many times, right?" Li Daoyi asked.
"I dare not hide it from you, senior. Dan Chenzi and I have known each other for hundreds of years and have an intimate relationship. This time, he was also forced into this situation."
“Although there were reasons for your actions, you still violated the rules by coming to the lower realm without authorization. Do you know what that means?” Li Daoyi asked.
Xuan Tianzong's expression changed, and he immediately knelt down.
"Please punish me, senior."
"Considering that you care about mortals and just tried your best to stop Dan Chenzi, I will forgive you this time. Get up."
Xuan Tianzong showed a grateful expression and slowly stood up.
"Emian is so handsome." Li Daoyi looked at the puppet in front of him and admired it. The puppet could make all the actions, behaviors and even expressions according to his will. Outsiders would never guess that it was a puppet.
"Is there only half an hour left?" Li Dao then checked the remaining time for the Xuantian Sect.
“Xuantian Sect, judging from the direction Dan Chenzi just left, I suspect he went to Mongolia. Go and search in that direction. Once you find him, let me know immediately, and I will personally capture him.” With that, Li Daoyi took out a small token and handed it over.
Xuan Tianzong accepted the token with both hands and then nodded.
"Senior, I'll go right away."
After saying that, he stomped his feet and transformed into a rainbow of light, soaring into the sky and heading straight for northern Mongolia.
Of course, after flying for only ten miles, Xuan Tianzong returned to puppet form and automatically returned to Li Daoyi's system inventory.
The crowd stared at the sky, their emotions still unsettled. Although they couldn't understand most of the conversation between the two, they had a general idea of what was going on; it seemed to involve some kind of conflict. Even immortals had their disagreements.
"What? Do you think immortals are detached from worldly affairs?" Li Daoyi smiled knowingly.
Everyone nodded involuntarily.
"Even immortals have emotions and desires, and they also have conflicts. You should have all heard about the Blood Demon just now. He is an ancient demon who specializes in consuming all living things. He has destroyed many worlds before. But, it's no use for you to know too much about these things. With me here to protect you, he wouldn't dare to cause trouble."
"The appearance of Xuantian Sect and Dan Chenzi this time was just an accident."
At this moment, everyone looked at Li Daoyi with even greater respect, and in their hearts they regarded him as a great power with an extremely high status in the immortal realm.
“Immortal Master,” Jinlun stepped forward. He even changed his form of address.
"What is it?"
"You just said that Dan Chenzi went to my Great Yuan. I wonder if there is any danger there?" the Golden Wheel Dharma King asked worriedly.
"What do you think?" Li Daoyi looked at the Golden Wheel Monk with a half-smile.
Jinlun's expression froze, then he bowed and quickly left. He needed to return to the Mongol Yuan Dynasty immediately. He wasn't afraid of the immortal killing people, but he was afraid that the court would be misled by him and offend Li Daoyi, which would lead to the downfall of the Great Yuan.
"Immortal Master, you deliberately let that Dan Chenzi leave, didn't you?" At this moment, Wanyan Lie seemed to have figured something out.
"Hahaha, you came up with this yourself, I don't admit it," Li Daoyi laughed.
"Master Qiu, get ready, we'll go to Zhongnan Mountain tomorrow!" Li Daoyi looked at Qiu Chuji.
"Alright, I'll go prepare right away." Qiu Chuji nodded.
Throughout the day, Li Daoyi received continuous system notifications, his points kept increasing, and news of the immortals appearing in Jingzhao Prefecture and the earth-shattering battle spreading rapidly.
"As expected, they're going to stir things up again. My points have already reached 200,000 so quickly." Li Daoyi was overjoyed as he looked at his points. At this rate, he should have enough points to reach Zhongnan Mountain. Once he learns the cultivation technique and advances another level, he can choose to break through to the Golden Core stage.
The next day, the road from Chunyang Temple to the city gate was blocked by countless soldiers, and the streets were cleared. Wanyan Lie personally led a group of people to wait at the gate early in the morning. Accompanying him was a luxurious carriage, exuding royal style and very magnificent.
A short while later, the gates of Chunyang Temple opened, and Li Daoyi and the others came out, with Yang Guo leading the green ox at the very back.
"Greetings, Immortal." Everyone outside the door knelt down respectfully.
"Immortal Master, this is a small token of my appreciation," Wanyan Lie said with a smile, pointing to the carriage.
After returning home yesterday, he immediately had his car modified overnight and delivered early this morning.
"Oh, this is a very nice car. Guo'er, let Niu Er try it out." Li Daoyi nodded.
"Alright!" Yang Guo excitedly led the green ox towards the carriage. With the help of several guards, the ox was quickly harnessed, and a magnificent oxcart appeared before them.
Immediately afterwards, Wanyan Lie had several fine horses brought over, which were prepared for Qiu Chuji and the Quanzhen disciples. In fact, Zhongnan Mountain was only a few dozen miles away from Jingzhao Prefecture, but Wanyan Lie still thoughtfully sent horses to the Quanzhen people.
"Thank you, Your Highness." Qiu Chuji said without any pretense.
Soon, the group, some in oxcarts and others on horseback, left Jingzhao Prefecture amidst the watchful eyes of the crowd.
Just a few miles from the capital, Li Daoyi signaled the oxcart to stop.
"What's wrong?" Qiu Chuji asked, leaning closer.
Li Daoyi patted the thick blanket placed inside the oxcart.
"Little guy, aren't you coming out? Aren't you afraid of suffocating?"
Everyone was taken aback. They had seen the thick blanket when they came in, but hadn't paid it any attention. In particular, Dongfang Bubai secretly wondered how he could have been so careless.
Mu Nianci immediately pulled Yang Guo behind her to protect him.
The blanket started to move, and then a little person popped out from inside.
"Hehe, I was so suffocating!"
"Wanyan Ping!" Yang Guo exclaimed in surprise.
It was this little girl, Wanyan Ping.
“Princess Wanyan, you…” Qiu Chuji was also very surprised outside the oxcart.
"Why did you follow me?" Yang Guo asked hurriedly.
Upon hearing this, Wanyan Ping's eyes darted around, and she feigned a pitiful appearance, speaking timidly.
"Please don't send me back, okay? I've never left the city before. I want to go out and see the world." She looked at Dongfang Bubai and Mu Nianci, her little face looking very pitiful.
Being a woman after all, Mu Nianci's heart softened instantly, and she couldn't help but look at Li Daoyi.
"Little brat, do as you please!" Li Daoyi laughed, which was considered his agreement. In fact, he had noticed someone in the car from the beginning, but he just didn't point it out.
"Someone come here!" Qiu Chuji called out.
A disciple of Quanzhen Sect rushed over.
"Go back now and tell Wanyan Lie that the princess is going with us to Zhongnan Mountain, and that he shouldn't worry," Qiu Chuji instructed.
“No need,” Li Daoyi stopped the disciple.
"Master Daoist," Qiu Chuji said, somewhat puzzled.
“Wanyan Lie is smarter than you think; he already knew his daughter was hiding in the carriage,” Li Daoyi said with a smile.
"Oh dear... no wonder Father didn't look for me all morning. It turns out he knew I was hiding in the carriage," Wanyan Ping said somewhat discontentedly, unhappy that her father had discovered her little scheme.
Qiu Chuji suddenly realized what Wanyan Liedan was thinking and nodded.
Let's go!
The oxcart continued on its way. Wanyan Ping was very lively and soon made Dongfang Bubai and Mu Nianci laugh non-stop. However, Yang Guo had a lot of complaints about her. He felt that her appearance had diverted the attention of the others from him, and he looked at the little girl with resentful eyes all the way.
"Hehehe..." Wanyan Ping kept making faces at Yang Guo, making him furious.
"It's so good to be young." Looking at the two innocent people, Li Daoyi couldn't help but sigh.
