The Dutian Lingguan Road that started from the Taoist soldiers

Chapter 185 Small Signs

At the invitation of Wu Yong, two members of the Qingzhou noble family, the ghost-raising Zhong clan, boarded the Five-Dragon Chariot together, left Qingming, crossed the Henghai, and entered the Changhuan Fairy Island together.

When a distinguished guest came to visit, there were the sounds of morning drums on Changhuan Island, and servants from the government office beat drums to make music, leading the way on both sides.

After Wu Yong and his companions were seated, a Taoist child brought them a variety of fruits and vegetables, several jade vessels, and two hectoliters of spring dew...

Wu Yong sat in the main seat, with Zhong Lingzi and Zhong Ling'er, uncle and nephew, on his left, and You Xue sitting alone on his right.

"Brother Zhong Lingzi, please!"

Wu Yong raised the cup with his right hand, inviting Zhong Lingzi to lift his wrist and take the cup, then drink gently.

"The puppet master army in the East Sea was donated by Yuan Daoguan of Penglai Daochang. There are about a hundred people, including more than thirty sorcerers, and the rest are all Qigong practitioners."

"But the puppet division army is also useful in the battlefield for transporting thousands of miles and repairing formation equipment."

"But I don't know what rules you two want to set?"

"If you want to find a place to practice, well... you can choose a place in my Taoist temple. The hundred puppet soldiers can be deployed at any time when we go to war. How do you think?"

After drinking the nectar in the cup, Wu Yong turned sideways and got to the point, asking the two of them questions.

If one only needs the assistance of these puppet masters to refine flesh and blood, spirit puppets, thousands of machines, mechanisms, etc. for them, one can just sit in the East China Sea Dojo and hold a position.

After all, for a puppet master, a set of high-quality puppets requires countless parts, and to maintain them, an entire production line is needed to match them.

Wu Yong would naturally not refuse the offer of a golden elixir.

"Why do you say that, Taoist?"

"Since I have entered the East Sea Dojo, I have come to practice, so I should naturally serve you. The Taoist priest really underestimates my Zhong family!"

Zhong Lingzi's smile froze and he spoke solemnly.

He was seeking a path for the younger generation of the clan, not looking for a place for her to live. Such words were a bit of an underestimation.

Wu Yong shook his head and chuckled when he saw this.

"Brother Dao may have heard that in my Dao field, there are half-demons, great demon kings, and many soldiers from outside the realm."

"The puppet army, the rampant army, and the Taoist camp will inevitably go in and out of Jiuzhou from time to time, traveling back and forth between the chaos fog!"

His team is now gradually divided into two parts, with the now increasingly powerful Fuyao Wu family filling the Tōkaidō Prefecture.

And his Three Evils' rampant soldiers, the demon kings of the Qingyun Realm, the Taoist camp, the puppet master's army, and the evil cultivators under Yin Erlang, these diverse troops are used to conquer the mountains and rivers outside the chaotic fog.

"You are worrying too much, sir!"

"Ling'er is not a lazy person who fears disasters. This Taoism is also achieved through practice step by step. After becoming a disciple of the Taoist official, she has no second thoughts."

"This time, we didn't come empty-handed."

"Many of the Immortal Puppet Masters have dispersed in the past. There are still two or three Gangsha Puppet Masters on the Inner Sect List wandering around Penglai Sea. Ling'er has already made a promise to them that she is willing to join the East Sea Sect together!"

Zhong Ling'er raised her glass to express her feelings.

She originally had some supporters in the Xian Kui Sect. If they advanced and retreated together, a Jindan with several Gangsha would be a considerable force wherever they were, and could be considered a token of her allegiance.

Oh?
Wu Yong raised his eyebrows and looked at the woman with a higher regard.

Zhong Ling'er is as perfect as her name suggests, with a body that is so perfect that it does not look like a real person. She is just like the character "Ling", and looks like a carefully carved and ingenious female puppet.

His thoughts are also cunning and hard to discern. He has the aura of a Daoist. If he had not been used as a tool by the elders of the clan to steal the Immortal Puppet and then abandoned, he would have been the next generation of Daoist...

"Then you will join me and command my servants and puppet troops, okay?"

"If you are the leader of my East Sea Puppet Army, you must obey my orders. The Demonic Puppets are yours, including the ones you mentioned. The Immortal Puppet Servant Army is also yours to command."

"what do you think?"

Wu Yong thought about it and gave a price.

This Qingzhou Zhong family - Zhong Lingzi, is a very upright Supreme Lord, and also one of the top Daozi-level figures under the True Lord.

With his guarantee, I can still sell this face!

What's more, she joined the army under the name of the Ghost-Raising Zhong Clan of Haoli Ancient City?

The conversation was lively, and Zhong Lingzi and You Xue witnessed it. Wu Shiyong held the contract and Zhong Shiling made the agreement. The two of them, as the Taoist master and his staff, were in a subordinate relationship and signed a Taoist contract.

Offering to Kunlun Immortal Mirror...

The two sides talked for a long time, and made an appointment to meet again after sunset, and then the two Zhongs said goodbye reluctantly.

Zhong Lingzi returned to Qingzhou and entered the ancient city of Haoli. He also bought some property for Zhong Linger, including a treasure ship, a set of top-grade magic weapons, a team of attendants, and countless spiritual materials and precious medicines...

The ancient city of Haoli is located in the middle of the mountains of Qingzhou. It is said to be the resting place of all souls. After the first immortal of the Taoist Court, the Ancient Immortal Black Dragon, established the Taoist Court, he performed the Fengshan ceremony in the Haoli Mountains.

Later, the Zhong family was granted the Haoli Mountain and built the Haoli Ancient City. The Senluo Palace has existed for countless years.

For a big family like the Zhong family, if Zhong Linger went to the East China Sea, she would almost certainly have no chance of joining the ghost-taming sequence, which would give her the qualifications to establish herself.

Zhong Lingzi would certainly not treat this orphan daughter of her deceased elder brother badly!
And Zhong Ling'er will also go to Penglai, at least to gather a few inner disciples of the Immortal Puppet who are wandering around, so that she will have a small team after entering the East China Sea.

"Will he really hand over the Demonic Puppet to me? It is a treasure made of hundreds of millions of demon skeletons, and it can shake the spiritual treasures without losing the upper hand!"

After her uncle said goodbye, Zhong Ling'er could no longer hide the heat in her heart. She clenched her right fist and muttered to herself.

The ancestors of the clan treated her as nothing. After the Immortal Puppet Sect was taken over by the Jing family, they no longer cared about her life or death, and discarded her after using her.

If it weren't for Zhong Lingzi, she would have just been a puppet in the clan, no different from a collateral branch member.

But she was clearly the daughter of the legitimate clan, and her father was the former Taoist priest. Why did he treat her like this?
Zhong Linger was resentful, but she had no intention of returning to Haoli. After gathering supporters in Penglai, she headed straight to the East China Sea...

And at this time.

On the long roundabout.

Wu Yong and You Xue bid farewell to the two Zhongs. The Scorpion Spirit, Jin Fengzi, Wu Lingxiu, Wang Xu and others also came over.

"That woman, is she worth it?"

"If I remember correctly, that puppet is... something comparable to a fourth-level giant spirit puppet!"

"It blocked your Xuan Huang Yi back then."

The Scorpion Demon crossed his arms, walked forward, looked at the departing figure, and said unyieldingly.

It’s better to give it to her!
"That demon puppet was built with the bones of the Infinite Sky Demon. Apart from the puppet master, I cannot use it."

"If Zhong Lingzi hadn't said something in Danyang, the Black Mountain families wouldn't have stood idly by, and the tribes wouldn't have been so cautious. I might have returned home in disgrace!"

"I accept this favor."

"Besides, we have no reason to refuse the offer of service from a Thousand Machine Puppet Master of the Third Rank..."

Wu Yong chuckled and made the decision with just one word.

He and that day puppet are probably disgusted with each other. There is no way this magic puppet will be returned to the Yunmeng lineage. It would be better to let the little guy take charge. Maybe, there will be some unexpected surprises?

"Humph!"

"No reason to refuse?"

"Yes, the Qiongming Wang family sent you a golden elixir girl, holding a pipa in her hand, complaining and making me feel sorry for her. Then the Taoist of the Zhong clan entrusted a girl to you."

"There's also a stunning beauty and charming female demon in the mansion..." "Tsk tsk, she's so happy that she doesn't want to leave, right?"

A burst of sneer sounded from behind, and everyone made way for the man, revealing him.

I saw the Chi Ni female cultivator come forward gracefully, with her Dharma crown rolled up and a precious hairpin passing through it. She was wearing a colorful dress that was emitting magical light. She was tall and slender, with a palm-sized seven-color feather fan on her waist. Her beautiful eyes contained murderous intent, and she said with stern dissatisfaction.

"Wu Yong, you haven't been home for more than ten years since returning to the Southern Region. What does that mean?"

"I don't want to be your Taoist partner anymore. Whoever wants to be one can do it!"

Wu Xuan's eyes were filled with anger. She raised her hand and threw the volume of the Golden Crow Emperor's writings at Wu Yong, then turned and left.

Wu Yong returned from the Southern Region and disappeared without a trace in a blink of an eye. He hadn't been seen for more than ten years. However, the big families from all sides have been trying to stuff people around him one after another. Until now, he has no family. What kind of life is this?

Being caught red-handed, Wu Yong had no way of making an excuse. He picked up the Golden Crow Emperor's text, gave some instructions to Wu Lingxiu and You Xue, and hurriedly chased after them.

Wu Xuan announced to the world that she was leaving, wasn't it because she and he had just become Taoist companions, but they separated. After that, Wu Yong ignored her for more than ten years and practiced wind magic on the sea. Now that she had finally come to see him, she encountered such a situation. How could she not feel wronged?

And being in such a hurry, isn't it because deep down in her heart she is hoping for him to stay?
The two of them knew each other when they were young, but it was Wu Yong who was acquainted with them until now.

"Wu Yong, what do you think of me? A tool?"

"I was worried about you the whole day during your trip to the Southern Region. When you came back, you sent someone to tell me that you had a chance to practice, and I didn't say anything."

"I have no objection to sending the women of the Wang family to Mount Fuyao. Today, you are riding on the dragon chariot with You Xue, and you are taking in a woman from the upper clan of Qingzhou."

"Have you never considered my feelings?"

"You are too arrogant. How can you regard me, Lingxiu, Xu Miaoxi, You Xue, and even Wang Su and Zi Ling as tools that can be used at will?"

Wu Xuan fled for more than ten miles and landed beside the Changhuan Inner Sea. She turned around and questioned Wu Yong who was chasing her.

"It's my fault."

"However, I have no other ideas. I just got a supreme method and I can't suppress my desire to practice!"

"I apologize to you!"

Wu Yong raised his hands, smiled apologetically, walked forward, and when Wu Xuan wasn't paying attention, he hugged her from behind and apologized.

No matter how dissatisfied Wu Xuan was, she still couldn't break free, so she bit Wu Yong's wrist, but she didn't expect that her bite was so severe that not even a tooth mark was left.

It's really infuriating.

"Humph!"

Wu Xuan was embraced and lifted up, her fists raining down on Wu Yong's chest. She was indeed a chaste and virtuous person, but it was just a vent of arrogance, without much force.

"You know me well. I only have the path to immortality in my heart. No matter which girl she is, how can she move my heart?"

"Of course, outside of the immortal path, there are you!"

The two of them talked heartily, and then followed the purple cloud straight into the sky, strolling together in the clouds of the East China Sea.

"I have great luck in this life. If nothing goes wrong, I will be able to become an immortal. If not, I will be a half-immortal without a carriage."

"All I want is to pick the fruits of the Tao, open up the great road, and achieve immortality."

"Then I will take you on a stroll through the sea of ​​chaos and the great worlds. Wouldn't that be wonderful?"

"Be good and don't make trouble. Help me take care of the rear. I will lead the external forces and conquer all directions. When the time comes, we will conquer all the worlds and ascend to heaven together. You stay inside and help me stabilize the hearts of the followers and stabilize the foundation of our country, okay?"

Holding Wu Xuan's right hand, Wu Yong flicked his sleeves, and countless broken pictures flashed across the clouds. There were the past, the future, familiar places, and unfamiliar places. In short, it was an incredible experience...

Wu Yong and she have been supporting each other since they were humble beginnings, so they naturally have enough patience. However, he does not enjoy such emotions, so it is better to be honest with him.

Now he is only one step away from becoming a spirit. A spirit is not bad even in the ancient heavenly era. He can sit and discuss philosophy with heavenly generals and mountain gods without showing any fear.

If one takes one more step forward and attains immortality, becoming a true immortal, one will be given the title of Star Lord or True Lord in heaven, and will be a being that truly transcends all worlds.

It is true that the Donghai and Fuyao clans are of the same lineage. There will be a day when they will rise to prominence. Don't do this.

"I know you have great fortune. How could I not know how we were born and how we grew up?"

"No matter if you are a true lord or an immortal, who would treat their Taoist partner like this?"

Wu Xuan pursed her lips, seeming still unconvinced.

She had tried her best not to hold back and not to let Wu Yong worry about the rear. Otherwise, with the Wu family, where there was no distinction between the young and the old, and with so many female cultivators around, there would have been chaos long ago.

"If it really doesn't work... I won't be your Taoist partner anymore. You can find a Taoist partner who is equally matched with you."

"After all, I'm not as smart as Xu Miaoxi, and my background will only hold you back in the future!"

After thinking it over again, Wu Xuan looked at Wu Yong's handsome figure and became more and more timid. She loosened her hand, lowered her head, and shook her head.

If it was the Wu Yong from many years ago, the mistress of Fuyao Mountain, she would have taken him in with disdain. At that time, they were considered to be acquainted with each other. She also extremely enjoyed being by Wu Yong's side, letting him make the decisions on everything.

Now, I'm afraid the difference is too great. She has lost her own nature, and instead become anxious, resulting in many contradictions.

"fool!"

Wu Yong pointed his index finger and flicked her forehead.

"Ugh... it hurts!" Wu Xuan rubbed her eyebrows gently and groaned.

"No, I just want you to help me balance everything, whether it's You Xue, my family, or those girls, you just need to discipline them properly."

"If you don't understand, just ask Xu Miaoxi to come out. She understands it very well."

"Just practice. I will provide you with the necessary training and brilliant inspiration."

"With a stable family, I will have enough energy to pursue my path. As for you, how do you know that I don't really like your bad temper?"

"I may be impatient with anyone, but I won't be impatient with you!"

"You and I are Taoist couples..."

Wu Yong stroked Xuan's hair gently, soothing her with sweet words, doting on her, and indulging her in every way, like a kitten, smoothing down her fur after it had flared up.

Governing a country is like governing a family. When governing a family, one should put one’s heart and soul first, and maintain balance at the bottom. Only when the top and the bottom are united can the family be stable.

"What should we do now?"

Wu Xuan looked so embarrassed. How could she face anyone after making such a fuss in front of so many people?
"Don't worry about them. It's getting late. We'll go back to the mansion and sleep first. We'll summon him tomorrow and discuss other things."

"My dear lady, will you come home with me?"

"You are so good, Wu Yong, humph, you are so lewd..."

"..."

Oh, this transition really stuck me.

We can’t write any romance, but we can’t really treat half of the family as tools, that would be too stupid.

Please bear with this for a while, after being frank, even if the love is over,

Then it’s time to venture into the next big world.

Book friends, please give me some feedback. I have been thinking about this love chapter for the whole night. Is it bad?
