From a carp to a dragon god

Chaoju Island, the back house of the city lord’s mansion.

The eight great families of the Fairy Demon City are divided into the upper three islands and the lower five islands. Now the little demons in the back house correspond to the upper two islands and the lower five islands respectively.

Yu Shuyang followed Li Zhen, Yang Fuzi and Yin Chenzi back to the backyard and saw a yard full of monkeys, apes, macaques, turtles and pigs.

After Li Zhen's explanation, he realized that among the eight great families in the Demon Fairy City, five of them were branches of the Monkey Spirit.

The Shandufu clan is a pig-tailed baboon, the Bujialei clan is a winged macaque, and the three cities of Zedao: Pingshan City, Baoshan City, and Mishan City, all have monkey blood, such as the iron-armed ape, the white-faced ape, and the flying ape.

Yu Shuyang also gained a lot of knowledge. There were seventy or eighty monkeys, big and small, all squatting on the ground obediently. Don’t be fooled by their monkey-like appearance. They have all become intelligent and have learned more rules and regulations.

"Master Yang, don't feel embarrassed. All these students will be accepted into the Tōkaidōin first. Once you bring them back, you can slowly select them.

"If there are any outstanding ones who understand runes, you can take them under your wing. If there aren't any, I won't bother you." Yu Shuyang explained with a smile.

When Yu Shuyang was in the front hall, he felt something was wrong when listening to Li Zhen's introduction, so he wanted to help make amends.

After all, Yang Fuzi and Yin Chenzi were asked to help maintain order in advance, but there was no mention of asking them to accept disciples. This matter must be made clear.

You should know that Yu Shuyang accepted Wu Wei and She Qiuyan as his disciples, but he also accepted two magical instruments, the Saoxia Fairy Robe and the Qiankun Long Snake Bag, which were complete with the thirty-six levels of forbidden magic.

Yang Fuzi, wearing a blue-gray Bagua Taoist robe and holding a charred wood resurrection branch, said calmly, "It's okay. If the rune path wants to develop, it's necessary to sow widely and reap little!"

Ever since he refined the rune jade disk, he realized the problem. Runes are based on human hieroglyphs. If he wants to truly refine them into Taoist fruits, he must strengthen the rune avenue.

The current Rune Avenue has not yet taken shape. It can only be regarded as a seed that can germinate. It requires a lot of effort to cultivate it into a law of the avenue.

The most crucial point is the trouble with runes. Because Yang Fuzi is based on human hieroglyphs, the younger disciples will inevitably be disturbed by human Yuan Qi, and Yu Shuyang's help will be indispensable in the future.

Yang Fuzi pulled out a jade book from his sleeve and said to the little demons, “This is the Rune Jade Codex, you can read it together now.

As long as you can refine a rune into the spirit jade, you will be qualified and can be accepted as my disciple."

Go ahead and say it. Yang Fuzi threw the jade book lightly, and it fell to the ground and turned into a wall made of jade bricks. On each jade brick, there were runes and prohibitions engraved.

The monkey spirits, pig spirits, and turtle spirits of all sizes surrounded the jade brick wall in an instant. They had just listened to Yang Fuzi's talk about runes in the front hall, and they were very excited at the moment. They all wanted to become his disciple and learn runes.

"Master Yang, I'm sorry for not discussing this with you in advance!" Li Zhen apologized very respectfully. He had just attacked Mu Lingxian in the front hall and didn't think too much about it. Now he finally reacted.

"It's okay. Actually, I have to thank you. These seem to be good seedlings with good qualifications." Yang Fuzi said with a smile.

The eight aristocratic families in the Demon Fairy City all have the tradition of learning from a master. To be more precise, they all have a lineage of immortal cultivation like the Mu family.

The little monsters in the courtyard right now are all from the noble families of Monster Fairy City. They are specially prepared to be selected as disciples for the Three Fairy Islands. Naturally, their qualifications are much better than those of ordinary monsters.

"Yang Fuzi, why are you so mean? We have so many foxes in our Taoist temple, and you are reluctant to choose from them. Instead, you come to the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance to pick food from their bowls!"

Yin Chenzi couldn't help feeling jealous. In order to reinstate the Qingqiu Fox into the Taoist lineage, he had played many tricks on Yu Shuyang, but there was still no result.

Unexpectedly, Yang Fuzi wanted to accept disciples and pass on his skills again. How could Yin Chenzi not feel uncomfortable? Even though he was a fox demon who had practiced Taoism for thousands of years, he couldn't help but feel angry.

"Oh! Look at how stingy you are. This rune of mine has just taken shape. If you are willing to give it to me, I can accept Fox as my disciple." Yang Fuzi asked back rudely.

The Rune Path is just a prototype. Yang Fuzi is currently recruiting disciples, mostly to recruit "livestock" so that they can help promote the growth of the Rune Path.

Just like what Yang Fuzi said just now - sow widely and reap little, only a very few will be able to achieve success in cultivation in the future.

When practicing in the Middle-earth world, one needs to choose the right method to avoid being restricted in the development of the Tao. Among the three types of methods, Taoism, Fa, and Shu, the Shu can only be practiced to the fifth-grade demon fairy at most.

Just like Yu's father who became an immortal by practicing the art of eating words like a bookworm, he will have no chance to practice and improve afterwards, which means he will only have a lifespan of 1,550 years, unless he takes the elixir of immortality to prolong his life.

Therefore, when the demon fairy families train the younger generations of their clan, they try their best to avoid practicing magic so as not to delay the development of the clan.

At this time, the future of Rune Dao was uncertain, and the disciples in the sect had to rely on self-realization to practice the method, just like drawing lots with eyes blindfolded. Until the end, no one knew whether they were practicing Taoism or magic.

Yin Chenzi could naturally understand the meaning of Yang Fuzi's words. He was just acting like a fox just now and couldn't help but say a few sarcastic words.

"Ouch! I was just joking, why are you taking it so seriously?"

Yin Chenzi was wearing a purple-gold immortal robe, holding a golden rod of thunder and fire, and speaking in a serious manner with a tense face.

For a moment, Yang Fuzi also said that he was clueless, but just shook his head, turned to look at the group of little demons, and no longer paid attention to Yin Chenzi.

Seeing this, Yin Chenzi approached Yu Shuyang with a fawning look on his face, rubbing his hands and asking, "Xuan Yunzi, now the Lake Heart Island has been moved here, and the Demon Fairy City is halfway built.

I wonder when you're going to accept a disciple? You know, three thousand foxes are waiting, what do you think in the end?"

Back then in the Huangliang Taoist Palace, it was Yin Chenzi who mediated and made connections for Yu Shuyang, which led to Yang Fuzi and Sheqiuzi sending him magic weapons, and they also served as the three masters for Yu Shuyang to join the Taoist Alliance.

Although Yin Chenzi did not offer much benefit, he still helped a lot after all. He even taught Yu Shuyang all his knowledge of alchemy. All he asked for was for Yu Shuyang to accept the two foxes as his disciples.

"Master Yin, there's no need to rush this matter. You've also seen the Emperor Bell of the Nine-Room Taoist Temple. I think you should be able to sense the wind magic inheritance contained in it.

A few days ago, I asked Xuanhu Pengwei to pass on the Five Thunder Curse to Fox Boy. This Five Thunder Curse originated from the Great Dao of Thunder Luck and is also a rare skill.

"The inheritance of the Dao lineage has its own opportunities. It's not that I'm reluctant to give it up, I've already done my best!" Yu Shuyang explained with a smile.

Ever since Yu Shuyang arrived at Qingqiu Island, he has been considering the matter of accepting disciples. Originally, this was not a difficult task. People like Wu Wei and Sheqiu Yan were also accepted as his disciples.

He just wanted to avoid being involved in the disputes among the six fox tribes in Qingqiu, as well as the secret contest between the King of Qingqiu and the Emperor of Dongyi.

"Alas! It's not that I'm impatient! Look at the current situation in the East China Sea. There are already undercurrents surging. Who knows, it might turn upside down one day.

I, an old fox, am the last link with the Dao League. If I die, the Qingqiu Fox Clan will lose its Dao lineage. How can I rest in peace? "Yin Chenzi sighed sympathetically. At this moment, he was seven parts sincere and three parts acting. He was also shocked by the failure of the Red Eyebrow Patriarch to survive the tribulation, and he felt a sense of grief for the fox.

Yu Shuyang was speechless for a moment. The Taoist inheritances he currently mastered were: Xuanwu Water Method, Eight Wind Method, Liangyi Killing Sword Method, and Weichen Yiqi Taoism.

Ever since the Two-Polarity Killing Sword Art was upgraded from the Two-Polarity Dragon Beard to Yin and Yang and the Two-Polarity True Form, it has become the core of the Taoist inheritance.

Even though he later obtained the Weichen chess manual and comprehended the Weichen calamity and the Hunyuan unity from it, it still could not replace the core position of the sword.

This can be seen from the glimpse of the secret that he stole. The way of the sword has the foundation of the previous life. Both the sword skills and sword techniques are systematic.

The concept of Micro-Dust Qi was comprehended by Yu Shuyang. For his disciples, practicing cultivation is similar to practicing the Way of Runes. The level of achievement depends entirely on their own comprehension.

Even though Yu Shuyang drew pictures of Taoist Yan and Taoist Baimei and hung them in the ancestral hall, he actually had a bias in his heart.

The most crucial point is that Yu Shuyang does not intend to pass on the inheritance of Wei Chen Yi Qi to the Qingqiu Fox Clan, and naturally he will not tell Yin Chenzi about these things.

Just like what Yu Shuyang said just now, the nine imperial bells contain the inheritance of wind magic, and the five thunder curses contain the great way of thunder luck. This is the inheritance he left to Fox.

Yin Chenzi put on a great show, but seeing that Yu Shuyang remained unmoved, he knew that his tricks had been seen through again, but he did not feel embarrassed or angry.

After getting a few useful words out of Yu Shuyang today, Yin Chenzi was about to turn back and urged the foxes to intensify their training. He thought that among the three thousand foxes, there would always be one who could catch Yu Shuyang's eye.

Yang Fuzi and Li Zhen were also talking to each other intermittently. They were discussing the distribution of the little demons. Fortunately, neither of them fought for it and only looked at chance and fate.

While they were chatting, Mu Lingxian came over from the front hall with a dejected look on his face. He had been severely humiliated by the Seven Cities Demon Immortal.

A third-grade demon fairy is a top-three-grade master wherever he is placed, and even on the Three Immortals Island, he has status and position.

This is also the confidence of Mu Lingxian. Even if he nominates Li Zhen as the patriarch, he can still ignore him completely.

However, they did not expect that in the eyes of the seven cities of Yazhou, the Mu family was simply a piece of fat meat that could be taken at will. If Li Zhen had not represented the Immortal Dao to win them over, they might have already taken action secretly.

Thinking of this, Mu Lingxian no longer had any intention of competing with Li Zhen. All the way, he was thinking about how to say some nice words to win Li Zhen back.

"Li Zhen, I have something to discuss with you. Is it convenient now?"

Mu Lingxian approached Yang Fuzi and Li Zhen, made a guilty expression, and waited for the right moment to interrupt.

Li Zhen looked over with a smile on his face, pretending to be confused, and said, "What advice do you have, Immortal? These disciples are still waiting to be selected."

Mu Lingxian suddenly felt a toothache. He had offended Li Zhen because he was selecting disciples for him. Now, when he heard the news again, he felt bitter in his mouth.

"Where's Li Zhen? Let's talk for a moment. I have a few personal matters to entrust to you!"

At this time, Mu Lingxian did not dare to throw a tantrum. As the saying goes, when you are under someone's roof, you have to bow your head.

Li Zhen has been reminded by his cousin Yu Shuyang that he no longer cares so much about the Mu family and Chaoju Island. To be honest, wealth and power are not worth mentioning in the face of life.

Fortunately, he didn't take the bridge. He followed for a few steps and asked, "What can I do for you?"

"Li Zhen, you just told me three things in the front hall. It's not right to leave the Mu family alone. You are now the patriarch of the Mu family.

Whether it's recruiting disciples or going to Leidao Water Market, our family supports you. If you need any help, just let us know."

Mu Lingxian said with a flattering look on his face. At this moment, he could not care less.

"Oh, I see! There's no shortage of water in Shui City. However, I haven't been to Lei Island yet, so I don't know for the time being. Let's talk about this later." Li Zhen evaded while speaking.

Seeing this, Mu Lingxian hurriedly said with a smile, "You are now the patriarch of the Mu family. You can arrange for the disciples in the clan to do anything.

If anyone dares to disobey, just tell me and I'll kill them. Don't be angry, we are family!"

Mu Lingxian tried her best to win him over, and at this time, he had no other choice but to give in and say nice things, or to bow his head and win him over, and play the emotional card.

Li Zhen watched coldly, pretending to be completely unmoved, but in fact he was secretly thinking that if he wanted to fight against Xuantan Zhenjun in the future, in addition to seeking help from his cousin Yu Shuyang, he might also be able to find Mu Lingxian.

“It’s not that I don’t want to order the children of the Mu family around, but there are so many demons and immortals in the clan that they won’t listen to me, a vacant clan leader.

Now, I have also helped, which can be regarded as repaying the favor of the Mu family. After a while, I will resign the position of clan leader and take Lingge to the Desolate Sea to avoid being an eyesore to others."

Li Zhen deliberately said the opposite. He wanted to see how genuine and fake Mu Lingxian was. He wanted to see if she was trying to trick him into helping him again.

"Oh, Patriarch, you can't say such things. The Mu family is still counting on you. All the mistakes are my fault. You can't just leave it alone.

If you think I'm in the way, I'll go back to Sanxian Island now. From now on, Chaoju Island and Chaoju City will remain the same as when the Red Eyebrows were here. You will be in charge of all matters big or small in the clan.

I will go back and discipline the ignorant youngsters in the clan, and I will make sure you have a Mu family that is united as one."

Mu Lingxian no longer hid his feelings. He knew very well that he had come to beg for mercy. No matter what, he could not let Li Zhen escape, otherwise, the Mu family would be in danger.

The seven demon fairy cities are watching the Mu family covetously and will not allow them to recover at all, just like the three cities of Zedao, which developed from one island and one city to one island and three cities.

"Alas! Since the Immortal has promised, I can't refuse your kindness. So, go to the clan and select some disciples to come here.

"Master Yang is accepting disciples. This is a rare opportunity. I'll leave the clan affairs to you. Make sure they are obedient and sensible." Li Zhen said a few words lightly.

At this moment, Li Zhen felt relaxed all over, and all the anger in his heart was gone. At the same time, he was also happy about what he said in the front hall. He finally managed to shock the demon and fairy families in the five islands and eight cities of Yazhou.
