Zhu Xian: Learn from the Great Ying Immortal and rebuild the Trinity School

Chapter 103: The Ghost King Visits
After Puzhi’s death, Tianyin Temple kept the news a secret.

There wasn't even a grand ceremony to pray for the souls of the deceased, let alone notifying fellow martial artists to come and pay their respects.

Coming out of Tianyin Temple,

When Xu Zhiqiu returned home, it was already the morning of the third day.

After being away for so many days, he felt a little guilty.

As a teacher, I am really careless to leave a seven-year-old child at home for eight or nine days.

However, Wu Chongguang also told him about something that happened during his absence:

"What, you said someone came to see me these days?"

Wu Zhongguang nodded:
"Yes, they are two middle-aged scholars, one of them claims to be surnamed Wan, and the other surnamed Dongfang."

Xu Zhiqiu frowned when he heard it. Could it be the two people from the Ghost King Sect last time?
How did they find their own place to live? Besides, why would they find me?

"They didn't do anything to you, did they?"

"No."

Wu Chongguang said that these three people were ambushed by the setup he set up before he left, and each of them suffered a little bit.

However, he did not force his way in. He just asked Wu Zhongguang through the wall about the approximate time of Xu Zhiqiu's return, and said that he would visit him next time.

"Should!"

Xu Zhiqiu was relieved after hearing the curse:

“It’s a pity not to roast them into roast chicken!”

Xu Zhiqiu, who was very angry, began to check Wu Chongguang's academic progress over the past few days.

However, I was surprised to find that there was quite a bit of progress.

Perhaps due to his generous use of medicine to refine the foundation, the little fellow now has a very solid foundation.

According to Trinity's standards, he could already try to construct the first level.

Three days later,
The master and his apprentice were sitting in the yard eating watermelon.
The two people mentioned by Wu Chongguang came again.

As Xu Zhiqiu expected, it was the Ghost King Sect Leader and Qinglong.

"I haven't seen you for a while. I didn't expect that Fellow Daoist Xu has already started accepting disciples."

The Ghost King first greeted him, then flattered him:

"Your disciple is so young, yet he has such a solid foundation. It's really enviable."

"Ah."

Xu Zhiqiu gave a wink, and the little guy went into the house tactfully.

The two men stood at the door hesitating. Xu Zhiqiu did not stop them, but they did not come in.

It can be seen that the last time was quite messed up.

Xu Zhiqiu had already arranged the layout, so he invited the two men into the courtyard.

"Are you two here to visit my relatives?"

Xu Zhiqiu snorted coldly.
"This is a huge misunderstanding."

"bother you for something."

The Ghost King had anticipated his cold and rejecting attitude, so he did not beat around the bush.
"I came here today to ask Brother Daoist Xu for advice on two matters."

Xu Zhiqiu shook his head and said sarcastically:

"That's not right. You, the Ghost King Sect, are so powerful that you have even investigated my residence very clearly. Why are you still asking me for advice? What's going on here?"

"I think Brother Xu is definitely not one of those hot-headed people in the righteous path who only care about killing demons and exorcising monsters..." The Ghost King cupped his hands and said in a gentle tone: "Since we haven't reached the point of fighting as soon as we meet, there are some things I think we can still talk about."

"Let's just say it casually, let's just listen to it casually."

Xu Zhiqiu asked the two to wait for a moment and then he got up and went into the house.

Although there are ideological conflicts, the proper etiquette should not be too short.

He entered the house, took the key and opened the cabinet.

There are tea sets and tea leaves inside. There are three kinds of tea leaves:
There are Dahongpao at two taels of silver per tael, Longjing at eight cents of silver per tael, and Gaomoer at thirty cents of silver per tael.

I brewed a cup of Dahongpao for myself and a bowl of Gaomoer for each of them.

The tea was brewed and served on a plate.

These two people looked at each other and saw that there was still tea to drink.
With a smile on his face, he picked up the teacup and took a sip.

They smacked their lips, looked at each other, and looked embarrassed, but still said:
“Good tea…”

"Good taste."

The ghost king put down the tea bowl and said:
"The first matter is for my little daughter Bi Yao. Fellow Daoist, you also know that my Ghost King Sect is a big name in my Holy Church and has many enemies, both openly and covertly. It is inevitable that one day it will bring disaster to my family..."

As he spoke, he stood up and bowed solemnly to Xu Zhiqiu.

"I have an unwelcome request. I want my daughter to become your disciple."

"sure."

Unexpectedly, Xu Zhiqiu agreed directly and readily.

However, the conditions were thrown out immediately afterwards.

"As long as the child breaks off the father-daughter relationship with you, the Ghost King Sect Master, I can consider accepting her as my disciple."

"Fellow Daoist, isn't this a bit inhumane?"

The Ghost King shook his head and smiled bitterly:

"Separating the flesh and blood of a family alive, is this what a righteous person would do?"

"Then there's nothing I can do to help."

Xu Zhiqiu took a sip of tea calmly and said:
"Although I always act on the issue rather than on the person, I will have to establish my own school in the future, so I have to pay attention to the impact. If she doesn't break off her relationship with you and I take her in, how will the world see us? Are we birds of a feather? Are you trying to stir up a color revolution with me?"

Between the lines, there was criticism of the Ghost King's despicable behavior.

Although the Ghost King did not understand the new term "color revolution", he also knew the determination revealed in his words.

"I really didn't think this through. Let's put it aside for now."

Then he brought up the second one:

"I have something I want to ask Fellow Daoist Xu. Recently, the Hehuan Sect has closed its mountains and avoided the world. I heard that its leader, Fairy San Miao, was in seclusion to make a breakthrough. But I got news... She was actually killed by Fellow Daoist Xu. Is this true?"

"Ah!"

Xu Zhiqiu knew that the infighting within the Demon Cult was brutal and it was a life-and-death struggle.

The ghost king came today probably to confirm this matter.

He sneered, did not answer directly, and asked:
"You are all birds of a feather, so why do you want to avenge her?"

This is tantamount to a disguised admission.

The Ghost King got the answer, his eyes flashed, and he started to plan in his mind.

Xu Zhiqiu was not interested in this.

But today, by chance,

When he met two masters of magic, Ghost King and Qinglong, he couldn't help but have some lively thoughts in his mind.

Especially after the trip to Yu Di, he acquired a new and strange technique in his inner world.

He has been studying day and night during this period of time. Although he has not yet mastered the basics, it seems that he has enough knowledge to show off in front of others.

So, it just happened to be in line with what he said above.

Before waiting for the Ghost King's consent, she just tapped her toes slightly, and a strange pattern unfolded.

He set himself the central palace and moved the Ghost King and Azure Dragon to the positions of the Jing Gate and the Si Gate respectively.

Although the two had practiced Taoism for hundreds of years, they were not familiar with the art of divination, and could not perceive the strange pattern under their feet.

Suddenly, I felt a chill on the back of my neck and looked at Xu Zhiqiu in surprise.

But how can you tell?
This person... is getting farther and farther away?
