Chapter 300: The One with Great Luck: Liu Ji
Hearing Xie Lingyun's words, even Zhang Chen was confused, his eyes full of confusion: "I don't know where the six-colored flame came from."

"You were the one who found the Bagua Furnace, and you were the one who refined the treasure. How could you not know the origin of the flame in the Bagua Furnace?" Xie Lingyun was a little confused after hearing what Zhang Chen said.

Hearing Xie Lingyun's words, Zhang Chen sighed softly: "Don't mention it! I am getting more and more confused about this Bagua furnace now."

Xie Lingyun did not doubt Zhang Chen's words, but he felt that the heat in the cave was a little strange. The aura unintentionally emitted by the flames actually made the Yin God strongman walk on thin ice. How powerful should the flames in the furnace be?

"By the way, your younger brothers and sisters miss you very much. Don't you want to go to the Procuratorate to take a look?" Xie Lingyun changed the subject. She didn't want to covet Zhang Chen's secret.

Zhang Chen thought of the two little ones and his stepmother when he heard this, then shook his head: "It's enough for them to have a place to stay and live in peace and happiness. When I become stronger in the future, it won't be too late to take them back."

Zhang Chen wanted to hide in Huangli Temple to steal points, but he didn't want to get too involved with his family and divert the attention of those old guys.

After Xie Lingyun heard this, he said no more. The two talked for a while. After Zhang Chen finished delivering the message for Xie Lingyun, he quietly returned to the Taoist temple.

Just as Zhang Chen walked out of the yard, he saw a familiar man. He was wearing a Taoist robe and standing at the door with a sword on his back. He stood there with a pale face and murderous eyes.

"Chu Mingyue." Zhang Chen looked at the figure blocking the door and couldn't help but frown, with a hint of caution in his eyes.

He had cut off two taels of flesh from Chu Mingyue's crotch, so he knew that Chu Mingyue would never give up. However, to his surprise, Chu Mingyue recovered from her injuries a little too quickly, so quickly that it was beyond his expectations.

"It seems that this world still has some good points. According to the speed of wound recovery in the previous life, it would take at least a month to get out of bed. But it's only been a few days, and Chu Mingyue not only got out of bed, but can also walk?" Zhang Chen secretly slandered in his heart.

Zhang Chen looked at Chu Mingyue, and Chu Mingyue saw Zhang Chen. Then Chu Mingyue smiled coldly, and a hint of tenderness appeared on his handsome features: "Junior Brother Zhang, we haven't seen each other for a long time."

"It's been a long time since we last met." Zhang Chen said with a smile, "During the previous duel, I didn't have enough strength and accidentally injured you, I hope you won't blame me."

"What's there to talk about blaming or not? In a martial arts competition, fists and feet are bound to be blind. How can I blame you?" Although Chu Mingyue said that she didn't blame him, the hatred in her eyes was so strong that it seemed to turn into a knife and fly out, stabbing Zhang Chen to death.

"Of course, there are ways out everywhere in life. If it weren't for my junior brother's help, how could the master give me such an opportunity?" Chu Mingyue's words were incoherent, and Zhang Chen felt a little uneasy. What "opportunity"?
"I don't understand, what opportunity do you mean, brother?" Zhang Chen didn't understand what he meant.

Chu Mingyue smiled and did not answer Zhang Chen's words. Instead, she looked Zhang Chen up and down, as if she wanted to engrave Zhang Chen firmly in her bones: "I came here today to say goodbye to my junior brother. I have something to tell you. There will be turmoil in the Huangtian Dao in the future. You must live well, you must live well! Don't die in the turmoil."

Chu Mingyue left. Zhang Chen looked at Chu Mingyue's back and knew in his heart that there was one more thing that the other party hadn't said, which was "I will kill you myself when the time comes."

"This guy seems to be a troublemaker. He needs to be killed as soon as possible." Zhang Chen looked at Chu Mingyue's back with a fierce look in his eyes:
"Blood God Son can take action tonight."

Zhang Chen walked back into his house and continued to lurk underground to steal points. It was not until late at night that Zhang Chen turned into a stream of water and seeped into the soil again, heading towards Chu Mingyue's room.

Although Chu Mingyue was a child of destiny, he also lived in a dorm room. However, the people from the various Taoist temples had all dispersed, and the guest rooms in the temples were empty again. When Zhang Chen came to the dorm room where Chu Mingyue was, it was completely empty, and even all of Chu Mingyue's belongings had disappeared.

"Is this guy gone?" Zhang Chen showed up in the house, looking at the empty bunk bed and sweeping across the clean house, with a helpless look in his eyes: "He ran fast! But even if he ran away, what can we do? If we meet him outside, with my invisibility skills, I can make sure you die in one look."

Zhang Chen sighed softly and turned into a stream of water and lurked back underground. He had never taken Chu Mingyue seriously. If Chu Mingyue had not jumped out again, Zhang Chen would never have noticed him.

Nothing happened that night, and Zhang Chen stole the incense points for the night. The next day, when he was happily preparing for morning class, a familiar figure appeared in his sight.

"Is that... the old village chief Liu Ji?" Zhang Chen was shocked when he saw the figure under the dim light.

How did the old village chief Liu Ji get into Huangli Temple?

"Or is it that the old village chief is originally from Huangli Temple, and is disguised at the foot of the mountain?" Countless thoughts raced through Zhang Chen's mind.

He couldn't understand why Liu Ji, who was already sixty years old, was accepted into Huang Tian Dao? Was there something special about Liu Ji?
(Liu Ji obtained the absolute barrier green cover of the ancient gods and demons in the previous article)
Zhang Chen was puzzled. He didn't know what role the old village chief Liu Ji played in all this. Huang Tiandao's layout was becoming more and more confusing.

Just when Zhang Chen's mind was in a mess, the temple master Liu Feng came out and began to gather all the disciples for morning class. When the morning class was over, Liu Feng did not ask everyone to disperse, but bowed to the void: "I respectfully invite Uncle Master to come."

As he bowed, a divine light flashed in the air, and Gu Mingyue appeared in the hall and said to Liu Feng, "Get up."

Liu Feng bowed again before standing up.

At this time, Gu Mingyue put his hands behind his back, and his eyes swept through the crowd, and then his gaze fell on Liu Ji: "Liu Ji."

"Disciple is here." Liu Ji quickly pushed through the crowd, walked forward with some clumsy hands and feet, and knelt directly in front of Gu Mingyue.

"All the disciples are here to witness today that I will accept you as my last disciple. Let's hold the disciple-taking ceremony today so that all the disciples can be witnesses." Gu Mingyue's voice spread throughout the place.

Zhang Chen below showed a look of surprise and envy, his eyes were full of shock: "What the hell is going on? Am I dreaming? Why does Liu Ji have such luck?" Zhang Chen's eyes were full of shock. Why did this little old man Liu Ji have such luck?
Zhang Chen opened his Dharma eyes and looked at Liu Ji. Then Zhang Chen was shocked to see that a huge amount of luck was gathered around Liu Ji. That luck was so magnificent that it was no worse than that of a dragon transforming into a dragon.

"Could it be that Liu Ji is the reincarnation of some old Yangshen guy?" Zhang Chen was shocked, his eyes full of disbelief.

"This old guy is so lucky, why didn't I see it before?"

Zhang Chen's eyes were full of disbelief. When he was puzzled, the three-hour apprenticeship ceremony ended and everyone dispersed.

At this time, the sun rose in the east, and a ray of morning sunshine rose. The sun's light spread on the square, as if covering Liu Ji with a layer of golden light.

“Liu Ji was accepted as a disciple by Gu Mingyue right after he entered the sect, while my cheap master Wu Changming simply disappeared from the face of the earth. He didn’t even show up when my first place in the competition was snatched away by someone else. It’s better not to have such a useless master.” Zhang Chen stood in the crowd, feeling sour, as if he had eaten a lemon, his eyes red with envy.

The apprenticeship ceremony ended and the crowd dispersed. Cheng Yu pulled Zhang Chen's sleeve and ran towards the cafeteria. Since Huang Tiandao took refuge in Pingbian Palace, his food began to improve. Today's breakfast was meat buns and meat porridge.

Just when Zhang Chen and Cheng Yu were walking back with breakfast, they accidentally met Liu Ji, who was surrounded by the crowd in the center. Liu Ji was surrounded by the disciples and looked very majestic.

Zhang Chen saw Liu Ji, and Liu Ji also saw Zhang Chen. After they looked at each other, they were both stunned.

When they were about to pass each other, Liu Ji called out to Zhang Chen tentatively: "Zhang family kid?"

"Uncle Liu." Facing Liu Ji, Zhang Chen could only stop and shout.

Even when his father was alive, he called him Uncle Liu. How could Zhang Chen turn a blind eye to this?
Liu Ji waved his hand to disperse the followers around him, then took a step forward and quickly came to Zhang Chen. He looked Zhang Chen up and down for a while, and finally his eyes fell on Zhang Chen's white hair: "You look very different now. If you didn't look more and more like your father, I'm afraid I wouldn't dare to recognize you."

At this point, Liu Ji pulled Zhang Chen to a hidden pavilion. After looking around and seeing that no one was there, he lowered his voice and asked, "Why are you here in Huangli Temple?"

"To survive." Zhang Chen said with a wry smile.

He really wanted to survive. You have to know that he had accidentally heard the secret that Huang Tiandao was going to rebel. If he didn't stay here, he would have been killed.

When Liu Ji heard what Zhang Chen said, he thought that Zhang Chen could not survive at the foot of the mountain, so he ran to Huangli Temple to make a living.

"I thought you went to Kyoto to reunite with your ancestors, but I didn't expect you to be in Huangli Temple. Where are your brother and sister? Is your stepmother still alive?" Liu Ji asked.

Zhang Chen's heart was moved when he heard the word "Kyoto". This was definitely not the first time he heard this word. His life experience seemed to be inexplicably connected with Kyoto. It was a pity that he did not solve the mystery in the womb. The memory of Kyoto was too vague and he basically could not remember it at all.

"My younger sister and brother are all making a living at the foot of the mountain." Zhang Chen looked at Liu Ji, calmly covering up the past, and then asked in return: "Uncle Liu, can you tell me about my father? I don't remember clearly what happened back then."

Upon hearing this, Liu Ji looked at Zhang Chen deeply. This kid was able to survive the pursuit of Pingbian Palace, and was able to stay in the same Taoist temple with Zhang Xiaohua without being killed. It was obvious that he was not a simple person.

Liu Ji did not hide anything, but told what he knew: "What can an old farmer like me know? I only know that your father came from Kyoto and was exiled here as a criminal slave. Later, I don't know how your father got rid of his corvée status and brought you to live in the village."

"I remember when your father first came, his eyes were bright and he looked noble and indescribable, so I didn't make things difficult for him. When you came here, you were just running around, and now you have grown so big..." Liu Ji said as he gestured with his hand.

Zhang Chen fell silent after hearing this. Although Liu Ji's words did not contain much information, they did remind him of some vague clues.

"By the way, there is something I want to remind you. Your slave status is a big trouble. You'd better find a way to get rid of it as soon as possible. At worst, you have to fake your death and escape, otherwise it will become a fatal flaw for you sooner or later." Liu Ji warned Zhang Chen with a serious face.

Zhang Chen nodded when he heard this. The issue of slavery was a heavy weight on his heart. However, his father was exiled here by the imperial court's pardon, and even the Pingbian Palace had no right to change it.

Hearing Liu Ji's words, Zhang Chen chuckled and said, "Uncle Liu, we are both in this unfamiliar place, but we will be fellow villagers from now on. We should get closer and help each other more. You have been accepted as a disciple by Master Gu Mingyue, and I still hope that you can protect me."

Liu Ji patted Zhang Chen on the shoulder and said frankly: "Don't talk nonsense. I dare not help you. You have committed such a serious crime. I don't know how many people in the Pingbian Palace want to kill you. Who dares to help you? But if you encounter a crisis that you really can't get through in private, I can give you a push in secret. But if it's something open, you'd better stay away from me. I'm afraid of being implicated by you."

After the two exchanged pleasantries, Liu Ji turned and left, leaving Zhang Chen staring at Liu Ji's back, his eyes full of emotion: "It's really unreasonable! What kind of shit luck does this old guy Liu Ji have?"

Zhang Chen turned around and walked back to his own cottage. Thinking of Liu Ji, who was Gu Mingyue's apprentice, he became more annoyed.

It's really unfair. The things I worked so hard to get are just easy for these lucky guys. Is there any justice in this world?

When Zhang Chen thought of this, his hatred towards Huang Tiandao deepened. It turned into a stream of water and seeped into the ground. He began to continue his faith in incense. He wanted to get back the grievances in his heart through the power of incense.

Time passed quickly and life returned to normal, but after seven days, the pool of water from the incense and faith under the Huangli Temple was filled to the brim.

The pool is full!
The Conferred God Ceremony is finally about to begin!
