This Taoist Master is too Frivolous-Chapter 407 - 284: Great-grandson, Grandpa is here!
Chapter 407: Chapter 284: Great-grandson, Grandpa is here!
“Achoo!”
In a certain hotel.
Room 404, in the bathroom, Xu Yang suddenly sneezed.
While squatting down, Wan Qian looked up with big watery eyes at Xu Yang, concerned, she asked: “Did you catch a cold?”
“How could I, a cultivator in Divine Transcendence Realm, catch a cold?”
Xu Yang laughed, pushed Wan Qian’s head back down, and said: “Maybe someone is thinking of me again… I’ve been sneezing a lot these days, and I’ve grown accustomed to it!”
Not until around 9 o’clock the next morning did the two snuggle downstairs.
After checking out, they casually walked into a breakfast shop.
As they were eating breakfast, Xu Yang asked: “Wan Qian, what are your plans now? Will you continue running your clinic?”
“No.”
Wan Qian shook her head and said, “Actually, ever since I saw my late grandpa last time, I’ve been thinking about closing the clinic. In the future, I want to practice martial arts!”
“Martial arts?”
Xu Yang laughed, “That’s a great idea! With your physique, a little practice can bring great achievements. If you can enter the Grandmaster Realm of martial arts in the future, perhaps you can completely solve the problem in your body.”
“By the way, have you thought about what you want to practice?”
“I’ll get you a few Daoist Arts to try first.”
Wan Qian thought for a while and said, “I want to practice swordsmanship.”
“Swordsmanship?”
Xu Yang said proudly, “Isn’t that easy?”
As he spoke, his mind moved, directly passing the “Dahe Swordsmanship Scripture” to Wan Qian.
Wan Qian closed her eyes for a long time, and when she finally opened them again, the method of practicing the Great River Sword Manual had been deeply imprinted in her mind. Xu Yang also said, “This sword technique is extremely powerful, capable of reaching the level of Land Immortal. If you can master it, the martial world of Da Xia will surely have another female swordsmanship master.”
Wan Qian looked confused and asked, “The basics of this Great River Sword Manual seem difficult. Do you have any more fundamental sword techniques?”
Xu Yang replied honestly, “I’ve never practiced basic sword techniques, but our Martial Arts Academy does have some secret books on basic sword techniques, and there are even professional swordsmanship teachers. Go back to school and get a job there. I just happen to need an assistant, so it’ll be convenient for you to practice.”
Wan Qian was happy to agree.
She teased, “Does this count as going through the back door?”
Xu Yang chuckled, “What’s the harm if it’s you?”
After breakfast.
Xu Yang called Feng Zhaoqing and asked Wan Qian to report to the Martial Arts Academy.
He returned to the villa himself.
In the villa, Liu Shishi was still in closed-door cultivation, and Yang Yin had gone to Yue Mansion.
The Ghost Market was to open tonight, and they had a lot of preparations to make.
Just as Xu Yang was about to go to the funeral shop, Liu Shishi ended her cultivation and came downstairs.
Compared to a few days ago, Liu Shishi’s aura was even more ethereal and otherworldly.
Her Yin Body also seemed somewhat different from before.
It looked more tangible, as if it was not far from becoming a real “flesh and blood body.”
“Madam, why did you come out of your seclusion?”
Xu Yang approached her, concerned: “How has your cultivation been these past few days?”
Liu Shishi said, “I feel like my cultivation has reached its limit. If I make any more progress, I will definitely attract Heavenly Tribulation. The sense of impending crisis has become increasingly apparent. After all, I had only achieved the title of Ghost King by absorbing the murderous, violent, and resentful auras of war. My body is tainted with great sin. If I trigger the Heavenly Tribulation, I’m afraid I will have no chance of survival.”
“Then there is no need to cultivate any further. After the Ghost Market closes, I will take you to the Underworld Palace.”
The two chatted for a bit.
Liu Shishi said again, “My husband, today is the Lunar July 15th, so it will definitely be busy later. I’ll go to Yue Mansion first to help out.”
“Alright, I also need to go to the funeral shop. See you tonight.”
Together, they walked out the door.
Liu Shishi soared into the sky, heading towards Yue Mansion.
Xu Yang went to the funeral shop.
As today was Lunar July 15th, the business in the store was good. Especially since the news of Xu Yang owning the shop had spread, many people came to see him, even attracting customers from Silver City, Zhongning, and even other provinces.
Fortunately, Yue Ya and Ma Xiaotiao were working in the shop, so Xu Yang didn’t have to worry about it.
Standing before the old man’s portrait for a long time, Xu Yang lit three sticks of incense and paid his respects before heading upstairs. He took out his phone and called Wang Hou.
Wang Hou was naturally aware of the special circumstances of this night. He said, “I’ve mobilized all the experts that can be mobilized to deal with any emergencies… The situation in the future depends on today!”
“There’s no need to worry about Xi Xia, Minister Wang. Leave it all to me.”
After chatting for a short while.
As Wang Hou had official business to attend to, Xu Yang hung up the phone.
He took a deep breath, calmed his mind, and took out his talisman pen and paper to practice drawing talismans again.
Without realizing it, the sun had set.
Darkness enveloped Wu City.
Strangely enough.
The full moon hung high in the sky, and since it was the 15th night of the month, the weather was clear, so the darkness shouldn’t have been too deep.
But in fact, the entire Wu City, as well as the entire Xi Xia Province and the whole of Da Xia, was shrouded in a massive darkness. Even the bright lights in the city seemed incapable of dispelling this darkness.
Xu Yang put away his talisman pen, went downstairs, and stood outside the funeral shop.
He saw pedestrians and vehicles rushing down the street.
At the side of the road, there were occasional bursts of fire as the elderly kneeled by the street, burning paper money.
Xu Yang saw ghostly figures emerging from the darkness, bowing to the people burning paper and then taking their “money.”
As he walked along the street, he saw thirteen ghosts altogether.
He cast a spell, immobilizing one of the ghosts.
The moment the ghost saw Xu Yang, its expression turned pale, and it screamed in terror, “Northwest Hammer… Master Xu, spare me… I didn’t do anything wrong, I just wanted to take a walk and collect some money.”
