One person: Twelve talismans, starting by beating up the old Celestial Master.

By the time everything was settled, the morning sun was just beginning to rise.

"Immortal Master, are you leaving already?"

"Well, I should go back now."

"Zhang Daoling, I have high hopes for you. Don't disgrace our Zhengyi Sect."

It must be said that Zhang Daoling is truly quick to grasp things; in just a few hours, he had already mastered the basic usage of the Golden Light Mantra.

Now that the source of the zombies has been eliminated, all that remains in Sichuan are some insignificant, ordinary zombies.

Zhang Daoling could easily solve it himself.

Thinking of this, Zhang Lingfeng circulated his Qi throughout his body, activating the rabbit talisman's ability to travel through time and space.

"Zhang Daoling, we will meet again someday if fate allows."

The next second he left that timeline and returned to the present-day Dragon Kingdom.

Zhang Lingfeng then activated the Rabbit Talisman's power again, instantly arriving at the Lu family home, outside Lu Linglong's room.

Just as he was about to knock, the door suddenly opened from the inside.

A somewhat haggard-looking Lu Linglong suddenly appeared before him.

Upon seeing Zhang Lingfeng, she was first stunned, then her eyes filled with tears.

Her lips twitched slightly several times before she finally spoke.

"I knew you would come back."

Hearing Lu Linglong's words

Without saying a word, Zhang Lingfeng stepped forward and hugged her tightly.

Looking at Zhang Lingfeng, whose clothes were tattered and who was covered in dust, Lu Linglong felt a pang of heartache in her eyes.

"You must have suffered a lot during this time."

"Nonsense, someone as capable as me would never suffer."

"Really?"

"Just a little bit..."

Chapter 36 Senior Brother Lingyu, I heard you got the short end of the stick?

Zhang Lingfeng is back.

This news instantly caused an uproar in the world of supernatural beings.

In a short time, numerous extraordinary individuals within the industry either called or visited him in person.

Whether true or false, or driven by their own motives

They came to offer their concern and care.

Zhang Lingfeng simply responded with a habitual fake smile.

He saw off the last group of supernatural beings who came to visit him at his Yorozuya (Odd Jobs Shop) and couldn't help but sigh.

"I hate this kind of boring social interaction the most."

Lu Linglong smiled at this.

"You can choose not to see them."

Zhang Lingfeng shook his head.

"It's tough. When I'm out in public, I represent the face of the Celestial Master's Mansion."

"By the way, my dear Linglong, don't you have to go to school?"

After hearing this, Lu Linglong covered her mouth with her small hand and giggled mischievously.

"I secretly asked for leave, and it's great that I don't have to attend classes for the next few days!"

Zhang Lingfeng shook his head helplessly at this.

Aren't you afraid of getting scolded by your great-grandfather if he finds out?

Wearing a T-shirt and shorts, Lu Linglong leaned back on the sofa after hearing the news.

She stretched lazily, showing off her beautiful figure.

"Hmph, my great-grandfather went to Longhu Mountain to visit your master's family, so he can't interfere with me anymore."

Zhang Lingfeng was somewhat puzzled, while Lu Linglong smiled and looked at him.

"One reason is naturally because you came back. As for the other reason, my great-grandfather is insisting on giving away the Tongtian Talisman as a prize."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Ling, who was drinking water nearby, almost choked.

"What??"

"Isn't this the ultimate skill your great-grandfather mastered? You're just giving it to my master as a gift?"

"Could it be that those two old folks have some kind of shady deal going on?"

Hearing this, Lu Linglong stood up and gave Zhang Lingfeng a sharp rap on the head.

"Oh dear, what nonsense are you talking about?"

"Believe it or not, I'll call my great-grandfather and your master and tell them you've been talking about them behind their backs."

Then Lu Linglong ran her hand through her pink hair and looked at Zhang Lingfeng with a serious expression.

"You have no idea, but a major event happened while you were gone."

"Your master is preparing to hold the Luo Tian Grand Ceremony and has invited Zhang Chulan to compete for the position of Celestial Master!"

Upon hearing this, Zhang Lingfeng couldn't help but narrow his eyes.

"Zhang Chulan?"

"Oh, I remember now, I'm somewhat involved with that guy in getting into the rift this time."

"No, what makes him qualified to compete for the position of Celestial Master in my Celestial Master's Mansion?"

Zhang Lingfeng was slightly displeased.

Has my master lost his mind?

Even if I don't want to become a Celestial Master, I still have Zhang Lingyu.

Why bring in a complete outsider who has no connection to this?

Lu Linglong continued to explain.

"I heard that Zhang Chulan has fought your senior brother before."

"Besides knowing the Golden Light Spell, the opponent can also use lightning magic."

Zhang Lingfeng frowned upon hearing this.

"He even knows thunder magic? Could it be that the old man secretly took on another junior brother behind our backs?"

Just then, three figures appeared at the entrance of the Yorozuya.

"Junior Uncle!!"

"Junior Uncle, you're finally back! We missed you so much!"

The speakers were the chubby Ye Xing and Ji Yun, who was wearing sunglasses.

When they saw Lu Linglong beside Zhang Lingfeng, they immediately bowed to her.

"I've met Miss Lu."

At this moment, a figure dressed in a white Taoist robe appeared behind the two.

It was Zhang Lingyu

"Junior Brother Ling Feng, Miss Lu is here too."

When Zhang Lingfeng saw that it was his senior brother and two junior nephews, the corners of his mouth turned up, and he gestured for them to sit down.

He then sat down and looked at Zhang Lingyu with a wicked grin.

"Senior Brother Lingyu, I heard you recently got humiliated by a newbie?"

Upon hearing this, Zhang Lingyu's expression changed slightly.

He quickly adjusted his emotions.

"Cough cough, don't believe these things."

"I came here for two reasons: first, to see you, and second, to convey our master's message."

"My master hopes that you will return to Longhu Mountain to participate in the Luotian Grand Ritual this time."

Hearing this, Zhang Lingfeng curled his lip.

"I would have gone back even without the old man saying so. Not only that, I've also prepared a big gift for our Uncle Tian."

Hearing this, Zhang Lingyu nodded slightly.

"Uncle Tian misses you very much. During the time you were away, Brother Rongshan said that the old man kept talking about you."

Zhang Lingfeng responded with an "oh" after hearing this.

He then slapped Zhang Lingyu on the back, making a crisp "smack" sound.

"No, senior brother, can't you give me any response?"

"For example, she looked at me with excitement and curiosity, asking in a trembling voice what kind of big gift it was."

Watching the other party's exaggerated performance, Zhang Lingyu smiled slightly.

"If I hadn't asked, would you not have prepared it for Uncle Tian?"

Upon hearing this, Zhang Lingfeng was speechless.

Sometimes, he really wanted to crack open his senior's head to see if it was full of wood.

"Hiss... You... Fine, you're right!"
