One person: Starting with the Rumble-Rumble Fruit, his grandmaster uncle emerges from seclusion.

"Screw your glory! Keep it for yourself and enjoy your glory!"

Zhang Tianyi grabbed Chen Duo and ran wildly without looking back; their voices echoed back from the courtyard.

"I finally managed to take on a disciple, and you want her to become an old Taoist priest guarding the mountain like you?!"

Keep dreaming!

Watching Zhang Tianyi's disheveled figure as he fled in panic.

In the back hall.

The old master and Tian Jinzhong exchanged a glance, and then both burst into hearty laughter.

"Hahahaha! That's great! So great!"

The old master laughed until tears streamed down his face, then patted his belly and sat back down in his chair.

"This brat, he went out and had a wild time, and now he wants to come back to the mountain and show off to me?"

"Now you know that experience matters!"

Tian Jinzhong also laughed so hard he slapped the table:

"Senior brother, your move of retreating to advance has really hit the nail on the head."

With his fiercely protective nature, he probably won't dare bring that girl near you for the next few days!

Just as the two old men were laughing so hard they could hardly breathe, basking in their own triumph over their successful "counterattack,"

"Shh!"

A flash of golden light appeared at the entrance to the hall.

Zhang Tianyi, who had just fled in panic, actually returned.

He gripped the doorframe with one hand, leaned halfway out, and looked at the two people inside who were laughing so hard they were doubled over with a look of disgust.

The old master's laughter stopped abruptly, his beard twitched, and he looked at him warily:

"Why have you come back again, you wretched child? Have you changed your mind and decided to let your disciple take over the old Taoist's job?"

"Catch you, my foot! Stop daydreaming!"

Zhang Tianyi rolled her eyes in annoyance and walked back into the house.

"I almost forgot about the important matter because I was so angry with you, you old Taoist!"

As he spoke, Zhang Tianyi gently patted the food pouch at his waist.

"Clap."

He casually tossed a ball of memory light, which landed on the chessboard in front of the Old Master and Tian Jinzhong.

What is this?

Tian Jinzhong looked at the ball of light with some curiosity.

"This is one of the Eight Extraordinary Techniques that I mentioned to you before—the Six Treasures Immortal Thief!"

Zhang Tianyi clapped his hands, speaking casually:

"This is the complete cultivation technique memory that I had that kid from the Lü family extract from Ruan Feng's mind without any changes. It should contain everything."

Upon hearing "Six Treasuries of Immortal Thieves," both the Old Celestial Master and Tian Jinzhong were startled.

That's a divine skill that can seize the power of heaven and earth and grant immortality!

If this were to happen in the outside world of supernatural beings, it would be enough to cause a bloodbath.

Zhang Tianyi pulled up a chair, sat down with his back to the chair, draped his arms over the back of the chair, and looked at the old master with a mischievous smile:

"Old Taoist priest, don't you always boast that you're the best in the world and that your Taoist magic is all-powerful?"

"This job is now yours."

Zhang Tianyi pointed to the ball of light on the table and began assigning tasks with an air of self-righteousness:

"I researched this technique before. Although it can greatly extend lifespan, its drawbacks are disgusting. If you practice it to a deeper level, it can easily cause your appetite to run wild and you to be devoured by your own desires."

"You're very knowledgeable and experienced. These next few days you'll have to put in some extra work and study this thing carefully!"

Zhang Tianyi stared intently at the old master and made a request that could only be described as outrageous:

"You must eliminate all those messy and flawed practices in this exercise! Turn it into a legitimate health-preserving and longevity-promoting exercise!"

Then, he turned his head and looked at Tian Jinzhong, who was still in a daze, his eyes softening:

"Once your senior brother has finished revising the technique, you can start practicing it, third brother."

"Replenish all the depleted resources!"

Tian Jinzhong stared blankly at the ball of light on the table, then looked at his second senior brother in front of him. His eyes instantly reddened, and he choked up, unable to speak.

It turns out that the reason why the second senior brother went all the way to Nathan Island and went through all this trouble was so that he could live a long and healthy life like a normal person!

"Alright, stop looking like you're about to burst into tears, it's so cheesy."

Zhang Tianyi stood up, stretched, and turned to walk out the door.

"You two can figure out the rest yourselves. If you need my help, just call me."

Zhang Tianyi stepped out the door, waved to them with his back to them, and his voice drifted in from afar, carrying his usual nonchalant and arrogant tone:

"Old Taoist priest, work hard! We all want to last a long time!"

Watching the white-clad figure disappear into the courtyard.

The back hall remained quiet for a long time.

The old master lowered his head, looking at the faintly glowing orb on the chessboard.

He shook his head helplessly, but the corners of his mouth couldn't help but turn up, and even the corners of his eyes became a little moist.

"That damned bastard..."

The old celestial master chuckled and scolded, then reached out and put the ball of light into his sleeve.

He turned his head and looked at Tian Jinzhong, whose eyes were also filled with tears.

An unprecedented fighting spirit ignited in the eyes of this centenarian.

"Third brother, it seems I won't be able to play chess with you for the next few days."

The old master stood up and stretched his body.

"Since the second brother has prepared all the materials."

"This old man is determined to transform this evil art into a supreme path!"

Chapter 303 A Forbidden Love Between Master and Disciple!

Tokyo, Japan.

A secluded traditional Japanese garden in Chiyoda Ward.

A light drizzle pattered on the stone slabs.

in the corner.

A section of bamboo tube, used for adding water to the landscape, was filled with rainwater. It struck the round stone with a "plop," creating a desolate echo in the dimly lit corridor.

Behind the paper door was a quiet room where not a single light was on.

Qu Tong knelt quietly on the tatami mat.

In front of her was a cup of coarse tea that had long since gone cold; the lingering aroma of the tea had been completely dissipated by the steam outside.

This powerful woman, who once held sway in the world of supernatural beings in China and single-handedly founded the massive Yaoxing Society, now looked deathly pale.

She subconsciously raised her hand and nervously rubbed her temples.

There was no longer any sense of foreignness there.

But the excruciating pain of forcibly using the primordial life force to cleanse her soul beneath the sacred tree on Nathan Island still seemed to throb wildly within her soul.

With each jump, she broke out in a cold sweat.

"A madman... a complete and utter madman."

Qu Tong's breathing was somewhat rapid, and her beautiful eyes were bloodshot.

Since escaping Nathan Island, she has never dared to return to China.

She knew all too well the methods Zhang Tianyi and his gang used.

If it is implemented in the country.

With the close cooperation between the World Alliance and All-Tong now, if I were to slip up even slightly, they would be completely exposed, leaving me with nothing but my underwear.

Moreover, Zhang Tianyi couldn't possibly have been unaware that the seed of lightning in her mind had been removed.

If you can't afford to offend them, can't you at least avoid them?

"President."

A suppressed low call came from outside the paper door.

"Come in." Qu Tong suppressed her emotions, her voice returning to its usual coldness.

The paper door was pushed open a crack, and a trusted subordinate in a black suit crawled in with his head down.

He presented an encrypted intelligence terminal with both hands, not daring to raise his head:

"The news that our domestic informants risked their lives to send back... has been wiped out by the company and the Tianxia Society in a joint effort."

Ma Xianhong's whereabouts are currently unknown, but he has most likely been escorted back to Longhu Mountain.

Upon hearing "Longhu Mountain," Qu Tong's eye twitched involuntarily.

"understood."

Qu Tong didn't answer the terminal; she just stared coldly at the rain outside the door.

"Tell all remaining covert agents in the country to cut off all contact and enter a state of absolute silence. No one is to be activated without my orders."

"Yes!" The confidant swallowed hard and asked boldly, "Then, President, when are we going back to China?"
