The Purple-Robed Celestial Master has turned into a zombie?! Who can stand that?!

Chapter 176 Returning to Wind and Thunder Mountain
Shi Jian was slapped away by Tianmao Zhenren.

Still not daring to utter a sound, Master Tianmao was furious.

Thinking about how strict I usually am with Shi Jian's upbringing.

How could I have made such a fundamental mistake?

Are you short of money, kid?
Shi Jian hesitated and stammered.

Master Tianmao went up and kicked again.

He asked, "Tell me what you need the money for? Do you want to get rich? Then why did you go up the mountain to learn Taoism back then? I really misjudged you."

Decades of nurturing you are not worth a single penny from the Buddhist temple!

Inside the Celestial Master's Mansion, the Taoist Tianmao gave Shi Jian a severe beating.

This guy is coughing up blood.

That was truly tragic.

Even the Celestial Master Xuanzhen couldn't help but take a sip of tea to calm his nerves.

To be honest, Master Mao was really ruthless this time.

Shi Jian was speechless for a long time, silently taking the beating with his head down the whole time.

It can be considered a case of one party willing to give and the other willing to receive.

Watching Master Tianmao teach Shi Jian a lesson.

The Quanzhen Sect.

Qing Yuanzi was completely dumbfounded.

Okay, okay, you're really going all out, aren't you?
Qing Yuanzi hadn't actually figured out how to punish his disciples.

But now, looking at Master Tianmao next to him, he can be considered a model for him.

Qing Yuanzi looked at the Quanzhen disciples kneeling before him.

He followed suit.

He slapped her across the face.

A perfect replica.

Moreover, they are even more ruthless than Tianmao.

These Maoshan and Quanzhen disciples were also badly beaten by their own sect leaders.

After a brutal beating, those guys were barely clinging to life.

If the fighting continues, they will surely die.

At this moment, Xuanzhen Celestial Master also glanced at Zu Celestial Master sitting next to him.

I think that's about enough. If we fight any longer, people will die. I don't think the Celestial Master would really cause a death.

Before the Celestial Master spoke, Tianmao Zhenren and Qingyuanzi showed no intention of backing down, because they knew who was truly in charge of this matter.

They wouldn't stop until the Celestial Master was satisfied.

Seeing that Shi Jian and his gang were on their last breath, Zhang Tianlu finally opened his eyes.

A voice came from Zhang Tianlu's mouth.

"Alright, the fight has gone on long enough. For the sake of the patriarchs of both the Quanzhen and Maoshan sects, let's end this matter here today."

Take them all back with you. Keep a close watch on them after they get back. If there is a next time, they will be executed without mercy.

"At that time, I won't give you any face."

These two groups are, after all, the next generation of successors of the Quanzhen Maoshan sect.

They've been nurtured for decades; it's truly a pity to kill them like this.

Everyone makes mistakes sometimes.

Moreover, they were disciples of their own Taoist sect, and they had already been beaten half to death. This incident has taught them a profound lesson.

Zhang Tianlu never expected that they would actually die.

That's the end of this matter. Go back and discipline yourselves.

But if there's a next time, Zhang Tianlu won't need to greet them; he can just kill them directly.

Upon hearing this, the leaders of the Maoshan and Quanzhen sects couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, as they had been fearing that Zhang Tianlu would really kill their people today.

In the end, they were let off the hook.

In a way, it's like leaving a legacy for them.

Immediately, Master Tianmao and Qingyuanzi bowed and thanked the Celestial Master.

"Thank you for your mercy, Celestial Master. Rest assured, we will discipline them strictly when we return. If it happens again, we will take matters into our own hands without your intervention."

When Tianmao Zhenren and Qingyuanzi said these words, they were serious and were expressing their attitude.

Because they knew how serious this matter was.

If it weren't for Zhang Tianlu's leniency, Shi Jian and his gang would almost certainly be dead today. If there's a next time, and they cross the line, they'd rather train new successors than let these traitors die.

Zhang Tianlu nodded.

He waved his hand, signaling them to lead their men down the mountain.

Master Tianmao and Master Qingyuan took their leave.

They sent away the people from Maoshan and Quanzhen.

This matter is now considered closed. As for how to discipline them after they return, that's not Zhang Tianlu's concern.

After the people from Maoshan and Quanzhen left, Zhang Tianlu got up; it was time for him to leave as well.

I stayed at the Celestial Master's Mansion for a day this time, entirely to wait for the people from Maoshan and Quanzhen to arrive.

Otherwise, he would have returned to his own Fenglei Mountain long ago.

Now that the matter is resolved, his Ten Thousand Souls Refinement has been completed.

It's time to go back.

Seeing that the Celestial Master was about to leave, the Celestial Master Xuanzhen quickly got up.

Xuanzhen said, "Ancestor, since you're already here, why don't you stay? Longhu Mountain is your home; how can you expect your own family to live outside?"

Xuanzhen also wanted to keep this Ancestral Master.

Even though he's a zombie now, it doesn't matter.

Zhang Tianlu glanced at Xuanzhen, then said with his hands behind his back, "My era has passed. Now Longhu Mountain belongs to you young people. I won't come back to join the fun. I have my own things to do, and staying here will make many things inconvenient. You don't have to force me to stay."

"I'll come back if anything happens, Xuanzhen. Your cultivation is still too weak; you should focus on improving yourself."

Zhang Tianlu's meaning is quite clear.

He is, after all, a zombie now. If he stays in the Celestial Master's Mansion on Longhu Mountain, it will inevitably lead to gossip, which is not good for the reputation of Longhu Mountain.

Secondly, he is now doing many things that are actually contrary to Taoism.

Within the Celestial Master's Mansion on Longhu Mountain, there were some things he couldn't do decisively.

For example, refining the Ten Thousand Soul Banner and planting Corpse Beans.

The ancestral temple of Taoism, a place of quiet cultivation, where the Three Pure Ones and other deities are enshrined.

How can we let him raise ghosts and refine corpses here?
A clash of personalities is bad for everyone.

Therefore, Zhang Tianlu's consideration is correct.

Upon hearing this, Xuanzhen, having already put it this way, stopped trying to persuade him.

He said, "Don't worry, Ancestor, I should go into seclusion after this matter is over."

Zhang Tianlu nodded.

Children can be taught.

He was quite satisfied with Xuanzhen.

Although Xuanzhen sometimes makes mistakes, who in this world is without fault? Even saints make mistakes.

The most important thing about Xuanzhen is that he can listen to advice and correct his mistakes. It's good that Longhu Mountain has such a descendant.

Zhang Tianlu took a step forward, and a black bird on his shoulder let out a cry.

Immediately, the black bird's size swelled with the wind, becoming enormous, and it transformed into a black roc.

The black roc spread its wings and crouched down in front of Zhang Tianlu.

Zhang Tianlu climbed directly onto Peng's back.

The roc spread its wings and soared into the heavens, breaking through the sea of ​​clouds and leaving Longhu Mountain.

Watching the departing figure of the Celestial Master.

Xuanzhen bowed from afar and said, "Respectfully seeing off the Ancestral Celestial Master."

With nine thousand years of cultivation, the Black Roc tore through the sky and disappeared from Xuanzhen Celestial Master's sight in the blink of an eye, heading straight for Fenglei Mountain.

Sitting on the back of the black roc.

Zhang Tianlu took out the Nine Netherworld Ten Thousand Ghosts Furnace.

With a flick of his wrist, a square, palm-sized, ice-blue jade furnace appeared in his palm.

This object is the Nine Netherworld Ten Thousand Ghosts Furnace.

The alchemy furnace is engraved with images of ten thousand ghosts on all eight sides, depicting the hideous ghosts of the Yellow Springs.

Inside the alchemy furnace, the Yellow Springs Reincarnation Scripture and a flame array are engraved.

Exquisitely beautiful.

Zhang Tianlu opened the alchemy furnace.

Inside the furnace burned a ball of glass-like flame, suspended in mid-air. The flame itself was like translucent glass, with six colors flowing around it, a truly breathtaking sight.
