Maoshan World: The young marshal starts!

Chapter 278 Gathering in the Capital, the Great Battle Begins
It was September.

On the banks of the Yellow River.

Guan Shaoqing came to Bai Rourou's place again.

"Young Master!"

Bai Rourou ran excitedly towards Guan Shaoqing. Since they hadn't seen each other for several months, her longing for Guan Shaoqing had been overflowing like a tidal wave.

"Master Sister".

Seeing Bai Rourou running up, Guan Shaoqing couldn't help but smile softly.

Bai Rourou looked stunning today, dressed in a light pink gauze gown with a white silk belt around her waist. Her voluptuous figure was perfectly accentuated by the dress, and her long hair was held up by a jade hairpin. She wore pink embroidered cloud-patterned shoes, and as she ran, the two large breasts on her chest bounced dramatically.

Soon, as the fragrant breeze wafted over, the beautiful woman's voluptuous and perfect body was drawn into his arms.

Guan Shaoqing smiled and gently put his arm around the beauty's waist.

"Still call her Master Aunt."

After the beauty nestled in his arms, she couldn't help but glare at Guan Shaoqing reproachfully, as the way he addressed her made her feel ashamed.

"Don't you think Auntie sounds more appealing?"

Guan Shaoqing then smiled wickedly.

"You little brat, all you do is bully me. How can you treat your aunt like this?"

Upon hearing this, Bai Rourou couldn't help but retort coquettishly. However, to be honest, although the title of "Master Aunt" made her feel somewhat ashamed, it also gave her a strange sense of pleasure that violated ethical taboos.

"I haven't heard from you in so long, I thought you'd forgotten about me," Bai Rourou said with a hint of resentment.

"How could that be? Even if I forget someone, I could never bear to forget my master. After we deal with the Manchu zombies, I'll take you back to Guangdong with me," Guan Shaoqing said softly with a smile.

"You're going to take action against the Manchu zombies?"

Upon hearing this, Bai Rourou was instantly shocked. At this moment, she had no idea that Maoshan, Longhushan, and Gezaoshan had joined forces to prepare to take action against the Manchu zombies.

But this is normal.

After all, Bai Rourou was not a member of the Three Mountains Talisman Sect and her cultivation level was not even at the Golden Core stage.

Apart from the people who carried out the operation and the other Golden Core cultivators who remained in the three sects, few of the disciples knew about Guan Shaoqing's actions this time.

"Yes, I reported the matter of the Manchu zombies to my sect after I returned to Guangdong. My sect contacted Longhu Mountain and Gezao Mountain to prepare to work together to eliminate those Manchu zombies. That's why I came north this time."

Guan Shaoqing immediately told Bai Rourou about the situation.

"Including myself, we have a total of eighteen Golden Core cultivators. Unless the Manchus raise drought demons, we should be more than capable of eliminating the Manchu zombies."

hiss.

Upon hearing about the lineup of Maoshan, Longhushan, and Gezaoshan, Bai Rourou couldn't help but gasp in shock.

It should be known that Golden Core cultivators are extremely rare in the world, like dragons whose heads are seen but not their tails.

As a result, Maoshan, Longhushan, and Gezaoshan directly dispatched 18 Golden Core cultivators.

What an astonishingly powerful lineup this is! No wonder forces like Maoshan, Longhushan, and Gezaoshan have been able to stand at the pinnacle of the cultivation world for thousands of years without falling.

With such power and resources, how many forces in the world can compare?

This is the true strength and foundation of a major Taoist sect.

Bai Rourou couldn't help but marvel. Compared to such major Taoist sects, their small sects were truly far inferior.

"After this matter is over and the issue of the Manchu zombies is dealt with, I will take you back to eastern Guangdong. You like a quiet environment, so I have already ordered people to build a courtyard villa for you in Baiyun Mountain."

Guan Shaoqing continued.

"Okay, then you should be careful too."

Bai Rourou nodded obediently upon hearing this, then hooked her arms around Guan Shaoqing's neck and jumped onto him, wrapping her legs around his waist in a seductive manner.

"love me."

"嘤咛——"
-
a few days later.

Inside a Taoist temple outside the capital city.

"The Major General greets his three grandmaster uncles, senior uncle, master, and junior uncle."

Guan Shaoqing arrived at the meeting place and met his master and the other Maoshan people.

At this time, all the people from Maoshan had arrived, including the sect leader Tai Xuan Zhenren, the second elder Yunshan Zhenren, the third elder Ziguang Zhenren, the grandmaster Shi Jian, the master Jiushu, and the junior master Zhaixing.

"The Junior Minister has arrived."

Upon seeing Guan Shaoqing arrive, all six of them couldn't help but smile.

"Congratulations, Senior Uncle, on your further advancement in cultivation."

Guan Shaoqing then looked at Shi Jian and congratulated him with cupped hands, because Shi Jian's cultivation had clearly reached the late stage of the Golden Core realm.

This made Guan Shaoqing suspect that it was because he had saved Shi Shaojian's life last time that he had helped Shi Jian break through the tribulation in his destiny, thus improving his cultivation. And Guan Shaoqing's guess was indeed correct.

Shi Shaojian's death was a calamity destined for him. Once Shi Shaojian died, it would inevitably affect Shi Jian's Dao heart, leading him to go astray and become possessed by demons.

However, Guan Shaoqing's intervention saved Shi Shaojian from death and also indirectly resolved Shi Jian's personal calamity.

After the tribulation, Shi Jian's cultivation level also improved.

"Haha, speaking of this matter, I have to thank you, Shaoqing. Now that Shaojian's matter has been resolved, I can finally put my mind at ease and focus on my pursuit of the Dao."

Upon hearing this, Shi Jian smiled and his gaze toward Guan Shaoqing softened even more.

After this breakthrough in cultivation, Shi Jian gradually came to his senses. Ever since Shi Shaojian was rescued by Guan Shaoqing and Guan Shaoqing decided to find him a marriage partner, Shi Jian felt a sense of inexplicable relief and mental clarity, and his cultivation suddenly became smoother.

He then directly broke through to the late stage of the Golden Core realm.

This made Shi Jian gradually realize that his son's previous death was probably his own tribulation, and he had been affected by it, which caused his cultivation to be unsuccessful. However, he was fortunate that Guan Shaoqing resolved it, and he was able to clear his mind and cultivate smoothly.

Therefore, Shi Jian couldn't help but become more and more satisfied with Guan Shaoqing.

"I see that Junior Brother Shaojian has no interest in the path of cultivation. So it would be a good choice to let Junior Brother Shaojian get married and continue his lineage as soon as possible. After all, everyone has their own ambitions."

Guan Shaoqing smiled and replied upon hearing this.

Upon hearing this, Shi Jian nodded in deep agreement. He had now completely given up on his son, Shi Shaojian, and only hoped that he could get married and have a son or daughter so that he could continue to teach him.

However, Guan Shaoqing and Shi Jian did not talk much.

Because now is clearly not the time to talk about these things.

"Sect Master, now that Shaoqing has arrived, may we begin our attack?"

Shi Jian then looked at the sect leader, Master Tai Xuan.

"Let's wait two more days for this matter. According to Zhang Tianshi of Longhu Mountain, two more Daoist friends from Longhu Mountain are on their way and are expected to arrive tomorrow or at the latest the day after tomorrow."

Upon hearing this, the Great Mysterious Immortal said...

So the group waited for another two days.

Two days later, all the personnel from Maoshan, Longhushan, and Gezaoshan arrived.

At this point, the three forces met and gathered together.

Maoshan is headed by its leader, Master Taixuan.

Longhu Mountain is headed by Zhang Xuandao, the contemporary Celestial Master.

The sect of Gezao Mountain is headed by its current leader, Qingxuan Daoren.

"Fellow Daoist Zhang, Fellow Daoist Qingxuan."

"Fellow Daoist Tai Xuan."

"Now that everyone is here, let's discuss how to make our move."

"Right on my mind."

"I think it's better to act sooner rather than later. Since everyone is here, let's make our move tonight. Delaying will only lead to unforeseen changes."

"Alright."

"However, we still need to discuss a plan for how to make the move."

"."

After some discussion, the group quickly came up with a battle plan.

First, two people were selected to keep an eye on the movements of the Qing court and its army in the capital to prevent the Qing court from launching a large-scale attack on them if they made a move, while also providing support.

Next, eleven people were selected, with Zhaixing, who was skilled in formations, leading the way, to set up a super-large Tiangang Subduing Demon Formation to cover the entire Qing Dynasty forbidden area and prevent the zombies inside from escaping.

Finally, one of the remaining people will take the lead to force out all the Manchu zombies and see how many zombies the Manchu are hiding, while the others will act according to the situation.

"Let me take the lead. I've already fought these Manchu zombies before, so I'm quite familiar with them."

Guan Shaoqing volunteered at this time.

As the youngest member of the group and the one who initiated everything, he was naturally the one to take the lead.

"Alright, then it's up to you, Shaoqing, to lead the charge."

Everyone agreed without any objection.

And so the matter was settled.

All that's left is to wait for nightfall to make your move.

As for why it has to be nighttime, it's because the zombies only come out at night. Otherwise, if we attack them during the day, they won't dare to come out and will simply burrow underground and escape.

Flying corpses can burrow underground.
