Because of the news about the Song brothers, the entrance to Yuxianlou was already crowded with people before dawn. Everyone came for Li Daoyi, and many people had come from places outside Yangzhou many days in advance. Now that they finally learned that Tianlong Babu was going to be told again, everyone was very excited.
Besides ordinary people, there were also many martial artists in the crowd this time. They were all curious about the magical martial arts described in the storybooks. Some, like Song Lu, believed that these martial arts were real and came here out of curiosity.
As dawn broke, the staff at Yuxianlou carefully opened the main gate, and everyone immediately crowded inside, looking just like people chasing celebrities at airports in later times.
"Everyone, don't push, don't push, don't make a scene, find a place to sit down."
"Please, please, everyone, follow the rules. Otherwise, if we anger the Taoist priest, he won't be happy and we won't get to listen to anything today." Manager Li of the restaurant kept urging everyone on the side. Fortunately, he mentioned Li Daoyi at the end, and everyone calmed down a bit.
"Shopkeeper, when will the Taoist priest arrive?" someone asked loudly.
"I don't know either," Manager Li said, wiping the sweat from his face.
"Oh, then we're just waiting around?"
"What, you don't want to wait? Then come out and give me that seat." Soon, someone who hadn't managed to get a seat at the door shouted.
"I'm not leaving, I'll wait then," the man quickly replied.
With so many people, they naturally needed to eat and drink. Even those standing at the door ordered a bowl of noodles and ate standing up, not wanting to move an inch.
After eating and drinking their fill, everyone started discussing the plot of "Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils." It has to be said that Qiao Feng is still a character that everyone likes. On the other hand, Duan Yu seems to be someone that no one likes. Perhaps it's more out of jealousy that he is such a good-for-nothing, yet he has so many adventures and is even a prince. This immediately made everyone resentful and wish they could take his place.
At the gates of Yangzhou, besides the soldiers guarding the city, the brothers Song Zhi and Song Lu were also waiting.
"Second brother, it's almost noon, why hasn't the Taoist priest arrived yet?" Song Lu asked worriedly.
"Such a master would naturally keep his word. Just wait and see. Since the Taoist priest said he would come today, he will definitely come."
No sooner had the words left his mouth than an oxcart suddenly appeared on the official road ahead.
The two brothers rubbed their eyes and then looked at each other.
The two of them had been staring at the official road, but the oxcart appeared out of thin air.
"Second Brother, it's the Taoist priest and the others." Song Lu composed himself and recognized the green ox as the one that had led them the way a few days ago.
The two hurriedly went to meet them.
"Moo..."
The blue ox called out to the two of them as a greeting.
"Welcome, Daoist Master," the two brothers said, bowing.
Li Daoyi slowly lifted the curtain, and then Mengmeng's little head peeked out from under his arm before she jumped onto the cow's back.
"Miss Mengmeng." The two of them quickly greeted Mengmeng.
Hehe, hello everyone! Did you bring me anything delicious?
"I brought it, I brought it." Song Lu hurriedly waved behind him, and a servant immediately came over with a basket.
"How could we forget what we promised you?" Song Zhi said, placing the basket on the cow's back.
"These are the best snacks in Yangzhou, along with some dried fruits. I'm sure you'll like them."
Mengmeng couldn't wait to open the basket, and her eyes immediately lit up.
"Wow..." The little guy was overjoyed. Inside were all sorts of colorful snacks and pastries.
"Please eat as much as you like, we have plenty more prepared in the car," Song Lu continued.
"Mmm, I'll reward you later." Mengmeng nodded, then stretched out her little hands to eat.
"Let's go," Li Daoyi said to the two of them, shaking his head helplessly.
Under the protection of the Song family, the oxcart entered Yangzhou City. Along the way, people were overjoyed to discover that it was Li Daoyi. Although they might not be able to enter Yuxian Tower, it was only a matter of time before they heard new stories, so they were very happy.
"Look, that child, so beautiful!"
"Could she be the Taoist priest's daughter?"
"I don't think so, the Taoist priest is still so young."
"If I had a daughter like that, I would wake up laughing in my dreams."
Passersby were drawn to the adorable little creature on the cow's back. The little guy wasn't shy at all, waving his chubby little hand at people around him while eating, which immediately brought smiles to their faces.
"This guy's a show-off." Li Daoyi rolled his eyes from inside the carriage.
"Why are you jealous of a child?" Dongfang Bubai glared at him.
"Tch, nobody's jealous of her. It's settled then, you two better keep a close eye on Mengmeng and make sure she doesn't cause any trouble," Li Daoyi reminded him again.
"Don't worry, brother," Little Dragon Girl said with a slight smile.
Soon, the oxcart squeezed into the crowd, and people quickly moved aside as they saw it.
"So many people!" Dongfang Bubai exclaimed in surprise.
Li Daoyi didn't expect so many people today; almost the entire street was packed with them, and it seemed they all came to listen to storytelling.
"Make way, make way." At this moment, Manager Li also squeezed out of the restaurant.
Li Daoyi stepped out of the oxcart, and everyone present cheered.
"It's the Taoist priest! The Taoist priest has really come."
"Haha, I can hear a new story today."
"Thank you, everyone." Li Daoyi cupped his hands in thanks to those around him.
Then Dongfang Bubai and Xiaolongnu stepped off the oxcart, and the scene immediately fell silent as everyone stared blankly at the two women.
"Giggle giggle..."
Mengmeng's laughter broke the silence, and the scene erupted in an uproar. It was the first time anyone had ever seen such a beautiful woman.
Little Dragon Girl lifted Mengmeng off the cow's back, while Mengmeng tightly hugged the basket, which was even bigger than her.
"Master, ladies, please come in." Manager Li said hastily, snapping out of his daze.
The group then prepared to enter the Fish Fairy Pavilion.
Suddenly, Li Daoyi stopped.
"Bold."
Li Daoyi roared behind him.
Everyone was stunned.
With a wave of his hands, he pushed the people behind him aside with a force.
At this moment, a lewd figure froze behind Dongfang Bubai. The man's hand reached towards Dongfang Bubai's lower back, less than an inch away from her graceful waist.
"Whoosh..."
People then realized that someone was trying to take advantage of them.
"It's you, Bian Bufu." Song Zhi flashed to Dongfang Bubai's side and reached out to grab him.
However, Bian Bufeng was already immobilized, as if struck by a pressure point, and was captured by Song Zhi.
"Bang." Song Zhi threw Bian Bufu in front of Li Daoyi, although he was also puzzled as to why the other party did not resist.
“Daoist Master, this man is Bian Bufu, an elder of the Yin Kui Sect of the Demonic Path. He is a lecherous man who has committed many crimes in Lingnan. Unfortunately, he managed to escape. I never expected that this scoundrel would be so audacious today,” Song Zhi hurriedly said.
"Hiss... The Demonic Sect." Upon hearing the name of the Demonic Sect, the people around gasped and quickly dispersed.
Li Daoyi took two steps forward and looked at Bu Fu. He saw that Bu Fu was about fifty years old and somewhat handsome, but his eyes were lewd, which reminded him of Tian Boguang.
Li Daoyi waved his hand gently, and Bian Bufu quickly stood up.
"What are you doing? Why are you arresting me? I didn't do anything. Since you know I'm from the Demonic Sect, I advise you not to do anything reckless." Bian Bufeng looked at Li Daoyi with some fear. Just now, the other party shouted and he was unable to move. It was really strange.
"Clang..."
Song Zhi and Song Lu drew their knives at the same time.
"Demon, today you shall die!"
At this moment, Li Daoyi reached out and stopped the two of them.
"Are you Bian Bufu? The junior brother of Empress Zhu Yuyan?" Li Daoyi asked.
"No, that's right. I've lost this time. We'll meet again sometime." With that, Bian Bufu turned and left.
After taking a few steps and seeing that Li Daoyi did not react, he assumed that the other party was afraid of the Demonic Sect, so he turned around and gave the two women a lewd look.
"snort."
He then used his lightness skill to leap into the air, flying away into the distance like a black bird.
"Master Daoist." Song Zhi looked at Li Daoyi with some confusion.
The people around Li Daoyi also looked at him with strange eyes. They felt that although the other party was from the Demonic Sect, it was too cowardly to let him leave without saying a word.
Just then, Li Daoyi stretched out two fingers and pointed at the figure disappearing into the distance.
"Settle." Li Daoyi called out softly.
Bian Bufu, who had already traveled a hundred meters away, was suddenly suspended in mid-air.
"this…"
Everyone was stunned and stared blankly at the scene.
Then Li Daoyi opened his palm and then clenched it again.
"ah…"
Bian Bufu in the air suddenly twisted, his body visibly contorting into a ball.
“I hate lecherous thieves more than anything in my life,” Li Daoyi said coldly.
After saying that, he flicked his hand high in the air.
In the distance, Bian Bufu's twisted body flew into the air as well, and then exploded like fireworks.
"Glug..."
The scene fell silent, with only the sound of swallowing echoing around.
Li Daoyi then turned and entered the restaurant, followed by Dongfang Bubai and Xiaolongnu, leaving everyone else staring blankly at the cloud of blood mist in the sky.
"bite"
"bite"
As soon as he entered, Li Daoyi received a constant stream of system notifications, and couldn't help but smile.
At the end of the street, directly below Bian Bufu's explosion, Yang Guang and his companions, dressed in civilian clothes, looked up in shock.
"What kind of method is this?" Yang Guang murmured.
"Inconceivable, utterly inconceivable! Your Majesty, this person is no ordinary man; he is likely a Grandmaster. Only a Grandmaster could kill someone from a hundred meters away," Yuwen Huaji stammered.
"Grandmaster?" Yang Guang's eyes lit up immediately, and then his body trembled with excitement.
However, one person frowned deeply; that was Shi Zhixuan, who had transformed into Pei Ju.
"Even a Grandmaster couldn't kill a Grandmaster so easily from a hundred meters away with his bare hands," Shi Zhixuan thought to himself. At least, he couldn't do it without a weapon.
"Who exactly are you?" Shi Zhixuan was filled with curiosity about Li Daoyi at this moment.
