The Demon-Slaying Grandmaster

Chapter 410 Stalking
Caixia, the close maidservant of the Third Holy Mother, was surprised to hear that Li Jingxiao had actually taken the initiative to visit her.

I was even more excited than the Holy Mother of the Three Realms.

To put it bluntly, as a close maid, if the Third Holy Mother really had an affair with a mortal...

She'll definitely suffer too, so if she has a choice...

Whether it was Caixia, her personal maid, or the other female Taoist priests around the Third Holy Mother.

First and foremost, we naturally don't want our owners to act recklessly.

However, if the Three Holy Mothers insist on finding a man, then each of them hopes that their master will find a partner with a good background and high abilities.

If the Heavenly Court were to find out about this, given Li Jingxiao's deep affection for the Three Pure Ones...

He also had the ability and achievements of accompanying Laozi in refining the Nine-Turn Golden Elixir, and being able to refine the Five-Turn and Six-Turn Golden Elixir himself.

In the end, this matter will almost certainly be resolved by 'making a big deal out of a small deal out of a small deal'.

Even the gods and Buddhas pretended not to know and simply let it go.

Even if someone really dislikes Li Jingxiao, the Jade Emperor would most likely punish him by making him refine elixirs in the Tushita Palace to atone for his crime.

In this way, those immortals and gods who are qualified to enjoy the golden elixir...

They will have no objections to the custody of the goods, and will do their utmost to exonerate Li Jingxiao whenever there is an opportunity and reason.

If Li Jingxiao simply shifts all the blame onto himself, the Third Holy Mother might not be punished.

When Li Jingxiao saw the Third Holy Mother, he noticed that the girl's face was slightly flushed and she had a smile on her lips.

When she wore a five-colored robe with her skirt swaying in the wind, she was so beautiful that Li Jingxiao was stunned for a few seconds.

This made Caixia secretly pleased, and the Third Holy Mother herself also smiled slightly.

He thought to himself, "Even someone like you, surnamed Li, has moments of idiocy."

So much so that Li Jingxiao came to his senses and asked to borrow the Lotus Lantern.

It went incredibly smoothly.

After borrowing the Lotus Lantern, Li Jingxiao waved his hand and sent the treasure directly to the Tushita Palace.

Command Golden Horn, Silver Horn, and Green Ox to take the Lotus Lantern, the Purple-Gold Red Gourd, and the Golden Rope to Beiju Luzhou to subdue the demon.

The Golden Horn and Silver Horn didn't matter, but the Green Ox was eager to try.

In the past, if anything happened in the Tushita Palace, it would never concern Old Niu.

Therefore, they had no chance to make meritorious contributions, and their status and treatment were naturally not very high.

Now Laozi wishes he could dump all matters, big and small, onto Li Jingxiao to handle.

Unfortunately, Li Jingxiao refused to accept the offer.

Besides alchemy, he would either fight or drink with others.

But as long as Li Jingxiao speaks, it will definitely work in the Tushita Palace.

So, after Golden Horn, Silver Horn, and Green Ox took the three treasures and thousands of divine generals from the Tushita Palace to the Northern Continent.

The green ox was incredibly enthusiastic.

Upon arriving at Bitter Owl Mountain, Golden Horn raised the Lotus Lantern.

When the precious light shone, the Lotus Lantern was indeed powerful, and the Bitter Owl Mountain immediately had nowhere to hide.

They easily found the hidden giant owl.

The Green Ox Demon hurriedly told Golden Horn and Silver Horn not to make a move, and then took a large mixed-gold spear himself.

Charge down and start fighting.

If the giant owl turns and runs, it still has a chance of survival.

But this monster overestimated his own martial arts skills and underestimated the abilities of the Green Ox Demon.

After fighting for more than twenty rounds, Qingniu pierced his chest with a spear.

Once injured, the chances of successfully escaping are greatly reduced.

Not to mention that Golden Horn and Silver Horn were also holding the Lotus Lantern, the Purple Gold Red Gourd, and the Golden Rope.

With the divine light of the Lotus Lantern shining upon it, spells like stealth become ineffective.

Even when bathed in divine light, it exerts a great restraint on demons.

This severely reduced the demon's speed and strength, and it was quickly defeated by the Green Ox.

Then, with a stomp of its hoof, the bull broke the giant owl's wing. This battle was very satisfying for the blue bull, and it felt extremely grateful to Li Jingxiao.

Incidentally, those who make contributions will be rewarded.

Not to mention with Li Jingxiao watching over things, no one dared to overlook Qingniu's contributions.

This made both Golden Horn and Silver Horn envious and pout.

However, Li Jingxiao values ​​Qingniu, so the two brothers no longer dare to belittle or criticize Qingniu as they used to.

Li Jingxiao, on the other hand, simply stayed at the Third Holy Mother's place and refused to leave.

The Holy Mother of the Third Princess is actually good-tempered, but also quite timid.

This is probably related to the Jade Emperor's experience of sending heavenly soldiers and generals down to earth to capture her parents, her two older brothers, and herself.

Moreover, his biological father died, and his biological mother was imprisoned on Peach Blossom Mountain.

It is related to the eldest brother's experience of dying to protect the second brother and her.

After Yang Jian split the mountain to rescue his mother, he protected Yang Chan too well.

Although this girl has some skills, her personality has become somewhat indecisive.

So much so that even an ordinary person like Liu Yanchang could win over the Third Holy Mother by shamelessly using roguish methods.

Moreover, the poem that Liu Yanchang left at the Sansheng Palace was indeed not very good in Li Jingxiao's eyes.

Li Jingxiao, if not a master of all arts including music, chess, calligraphy, painting, and poetry, was certainly far superior to Liu Yanchang in skill.

Especially with Li Jingxiao's high aptitude and comprehension, he really learns everything very quickly.

In the past, the characters in the Dream of the Red Chamber were actually quite accomplished in calligraphy, painting, and playing musical instruments.

As for poetry, its actual level is not particularly high.

But he's only two or three levels below the likes of the Poet Immortal and the Poet Sage.

Compared to ordinary scholars, he was naturally much more brilliant.

When chatting with the Holy Mother of the Three, I deliberately steered the conversation toward music.

Sure enough, the Third Holy Mother and he chatted more and more happily.

Then Li Jingxiao took out the Fish-Dragon Zither and played a tune himself, which immediately made the Third Holy Mother even more fond of him.

Moreover, Li Jingxiao is shameless; Li Bai hasn't even appeared yet.

If you really want to copy poems, there are so many to copy.

The saying, "A single encounter in the golden autumn breeze and jade dew surpasses countless meetings in the mortal world," perfectly encapsulates this sentiment.

This caused the Third Holy Mother's expression to change when she looked at him.

Disregarding his image, he grabbed Li Jingxiao's sleeve, insisting that he write down the complete words and phrases.

Li Jingxiao shook his head directly, saying that he was just feeling something and that this was the only sentence that came to mind for the time being.

I don't want to actually write out the whole poem, only to end up getting scolded by the Holy Mother of the Three Realms instead of winning over the girl.

But this only made the Third Holy Mother think about how to complete this line of poetry all the time.

She was constantly blaming Li Jingxiao in her heart, but at the same time, she was thinking about him.

When a woman is constantly thinking about a certain man, she's usually not far from falling in love with him.

In ancient times, a single line of poetry could truly make a woman fall in love with a man.

In modern society, those who fall in love online are still relying on their own imagination to fall in love with a fictitious partner.

Li Jingxiao stayed at Mount Hua for half a month.

Compared to when he first arrived, Li Jingxiao was now holding the hand of the Third Holy Mother.

Occasionally, when he did something even more outrageous, the girl would simply glare at him with her beautiful eyes.

But in Li Jingxiao's view, what seemed like blame in the girl's eyes was more like a coy refusal.

After the two played the qin and xiao together atop Mount Hua that day, the Third Holy Mother looked at Li Jingxiao with eyes full of affection.

Seeing this, Li Jingxiao simply pulled the Third Holy Mother over.

He put his arm around the girl's slender waist and lowered his head to kiss her.

The Holy Mother was startled, but she couldn't push Li Jingxiao away at first, and slowly she closed her eyes.
