The two elders of the Moon Goddess Palace did not recognize Jiang Chao, but they could not resist the constant chatter of a certain highly talented and talkative saintess in the palace.

She said her younger brother was exceptionally talented, and if he had been born a girl, their Moon Goddess Palace could have another saintess.

At this moment, looking at the legendary young man before them, even the two elders, who had extremely discerning eyes, couldn't help but secretly admire him in their hearts.

As expected of the son of a Grandmaster, this child's appearance and temperament are truly extraordinary. Just now, the Purple Heaven Divine Thunder unleashed by that old Taoist priest with the bull-nose nose, judging from its power, although it probably only used less than 30% of its strength, was still enough to kill an ordinary martial artist below the sixth realm.

However, the boy, despite taking the hit, was now as energetic as if nothing had happened.

Could this be the innate martial arts physique that the Palace Master spoke of, which is rumored to be unique to the Jiang family of Fengxue Temple?

"Young Master Jiang possesses the bearing of a dragon and a phoenix."

"Little brother, your kung fu is truly impressive!"

Hearing the two Moon Goddess Palace elders, one seemingly aloof and the other alluring, praising him so generously in public, Jiang Chao felt rather embarrassed.

The boy scratched his head and chuckled sheepishly, "I am unworthy of such praise from you two elders."

Jiang Yunyao's lips curled up. "You brat, I've never seen you so humble before. Weren't you the boss of the mountain? Why have you become so well-behaved since coming down the mountain?"

Jiang Chao feigned grievance and whispered:

"But now that we don't have our parents to protect us, the world down here is a dangerous place, full of hidden talents and experts. As a newcomer, I have to keep a low profile and behave myself..."

"Come on."

Jiang Yunyao scoffed.

"Don't I know you?"

"With your fearless nature, how could you possibly be low-key?"

The girl grabbed the boy's ear.

"Tell me, what trouble have you gotten yourself into lately? Or did you finally lose control and seduce some young lady?"

Jiang Yunyao knew her younger brother's character well. Although he was still young, he was very knowledgeable about romance and poetry. He had even boasted to her that when he came of age, he would find a hundred beautiful women in the martial arts world and die a romantic death under a peony flower.

She was furious because of the boy's last words. "If you're looking for a girl, just look for a girl. What do you mean by dead or ghost?"

Then he complained to his father that his younger brother planned to go down the mountain and harm a hundred innocent girls.

Jiang Buwen, who was always upright and strict, was furious upon hearing this.

Jiang Buwen has lived a life of chivalry and righteousness, upright and without shame. How could he have given birth to such a rebellious son who is so wicked at such a young age?

He needs to be taught a lesson so he understands right from wrong and good from evil.

Jiang Chao was so badly beaten that his buttocks were bruised and bleeding, and he cried out in pain for several days.

Although Jiang Yunyao felt heartbroken afterward for her younger brother being beaten, she did not regret telling her father.

She lost both her parents at a young age, and her only relatives in the world were her mother and father at the Fengxue Temple who raised her, and her younger brother who, although always getting into trouble, never hid his innocent and naive nature from her.

Alang was born with knowledge and was exceptionally intelligent. He told her many interesting stories that he had heard from somewhere, perhaps remnants of memories from a previous life, which made Jiang Yunyao's childhood less lonely and gloomy.

Influenced by her younger brother A Lang, Jiang Yunyao's personality is not like that of other rich young ladies. She is not pretentious and affected. From a young age, she has been quirky and mischievous, doing everything as she pleases.

Jiang Chao was unaware that Jiang Yunyao had suddenly recalled so many childhood memories.

He felt that his sister, Jiang Yunyao, had misunderstood him deeply.

"Sister Yao Yao, you...sigh, I never thought that I was this kind of person in your heart."

Jiang Chao shook his head and sighed, blinking his eyes, wishing he could squeeze out a few tears to express his grievances.

However, he has never cried since he was born.

How can I possibly shed tears right now?

The siblings, who hadn't seen each other for two years, started joking around without a care in the world, completely ignoring everyone else present.

Master Ziyang stood to the side with a smile on his face, his heart filled with countless emotions.

This young boy and girl reminded him of himself from back then.

Back then, he hadn't yet become a disciple of the Zixu Taoist Temple; at that time...

Before the old Taoist could drift off into thought, the boy who had been playing with the girl suddenly asked him abruptly:

"Senior Ziyang, I heard your Taoist temple is haunted?"

"What?"

Master Ziyang was taken aback, somewhat unable to react.

Jiang Chao then recounted his previous experiences in detail.

After hearing what he said, everyone present, including Jiang Yunyao, had a slight change in expression.

Master Ziyang looked at the boy with a surprised and suspicious expression.

"You encountered that ancient temple?"

Jiang Chao was taken aback.

"Senior Ziyang, are you saying that the temple that looks so dilapidated is actually an ancient temple with a history of over a thousand years?"

Master Ziyang nodded and said:

"Indeed, that is not an ordinary temple, but an ancient temple with a history of over a thousand years. Legend has it that this ancient temple was built two thousand years ago during the Great Qian Dynasty. It does not enshrine ordinary clay and gold Buddha statues, but instead enshrines a Buddha head that is over ten feet tall, and that Buddha head..."

At this point, the old Taoist paused, and a sharp glint flashed in his previously cloudy eyes. He then spoke in a low, eerie tone:

"That Buddha head was a Dharma head that the Buddha personally plucked from among the three thousand golden bodies he refined in the Pure Land of Sumeru, and placed in that ancient temple to suppress a certain demon that fell from the heavens to the human world..."

Jiang Chao: "..."

These words from the old Taoist priest Ziyang stirred up a storm in the young man's heart.

An ancient temple with a history of thousands of years!

Buddha!

Evil from heaven!

This world is indeed extraordinary!

"Then, about the haunting of Zixu Temple..." Jiang Chao forcibly suppressed his excitement and steered the conversation back on track.

"Nonsense!"

Upon hearing this, Daoist Ziyang's face darkened, and he angrily said:

"Young Master Jiang, you believe in such things as demons?"

This kid... could he be sent by other Taoist temples or monasteries on Yunmeng Mountain to deliberately make fun of him?

"This humble Taoist temple, Zixu Temple, is no ordinary Taoist temple. It enshrines the Taiqing Tianzun of my Xuanmen Taoist sect!"

"What ghosts or spirits would dare to cause trouble here?"

Since this kid has seen that elusive ancient temple, he must have been bewitched by what lies beneath it and is now spouting nonsense!

"That's good."

Jiang Chao said with some disappointment, looking at Jiang Yunyao, "Sister Yaoyao, I remember you said that your Moon Goddess Palace wouldn't get involved in martial arts matters, so why are you here at this martial arts tournament?"

Jiang Yunyao seemed lost in thought, appearing somewhat absent-minded. Upon hearing this, she casually replied:

"Master said that the palace is too stuffy, so he took advantage of this martial arts tournament to let me go out and relax with my two senior uncles and senior sisters."

Jiang Chao: "..."

Tsk, how come Sister Yao has started talking nonsense with a straight face after only two years?

Want to get out and clear your head?

Nobody would believe that!

Clearly, Jiang Yunyao was hiding something from Jiang Chao.

Although Jiang Chao and Jiang Yunyao are siblings, since she is unwilling to talk about it, Jiang Chao doesn't press her further.

Although her older sister is sometimes even more unreliable than him, she is very sensible at crucial moments. Presumably, the Moon Goddess Palace has some hidden reason for coming this time.

Jiang Chao saw his sister at this moment and was no longer in a hurry.

In short, everything will be revealed on the day this martial arts tournament officially begins.
