Chapter 209: The Fairy Takes Action
"Kneel down, disciple. I beg you for a favor!"
Because Lin Ye and Daogu were standing together, after hearing what the Taoist said, Daogu knelt down without hesitation.
The corner of Lin Ye's mouth twitched, but he finally knelt down.
"Disciple Lin Ye, after I leave, I'm afraid your brother alone will not be able to maintain Qingfeng Temple. I hope you can protect your brother for ten years."
"master!"
Daogu knelt on the ground and cried.
Lin Ye nodded, he knew what the old Taoist meant.
Ten years have passed. Daogu is fourteen years old this year. In ten years, he will be twenty-four. By that time, his mind will be completely mature and he will be able to stand on his own.
At the same time, Lin Ye also knew what the old Taoist meant by "protection".
Qingfeng Temple is not just a small Taoist temple, it is one of the nine major "Qing" temples in the world. There are countless Taoist temples that are concerned about this "Qing".
The recent spying on several Taoist temples is enough to illustrate this.
Once the old Taoist left, only Dawu was left, and the master was like a servant bullying him.
This statement also applies to Daogu.
Daowu is the only one left in Qingfeng Temple, and other Taoist temples will surely take action upon hearing the news.
The situation is more serious than before.
What I want to protect is to help Daogu protect the plaque of Qingfeng Temple.
To be more precise, when the real thing was impossible and he could not keep the Qingfeng Temple plaque, he could still persuade Daogu. Otherwise, with Daogu's personality, he would rather die than give up the plaque.
As long as the green mountains remain, there will be no shortage of firewood.
This is the law of survival that I follow. The old Taoist is the same as me, but Daogu is not.
Seeing Lin Ye nod solemnly, the old Taoist smiled with satisfaction. As for Zhang Wuji, he also noticed it, but he just glanced at it and then raised his head and said, "I am Ding Xuan, the seventh-generation disciple of Qingfeng Temple. I have worked diligently all my life and have never pursued wealth, fame or fortune. Over the years, I have been indifferent to fame and fortune and have lived in Qingfeng Temple with peace of mind..."
"Qingfeng Temple is hidden in the city. We do not seek prosperity or fame. We only wish there were no ghosts in the world, and we do not regret that there are no incense in the temple."
The old Taoist's words were powerful and moving, but Zhang Wuji below listened with awe and respect. It was worthy of being one of the nine "Qing" temples in the world. This kind of mind was beyond the reach of ordinary people.
Among all Taoist temples in the world, all of them seek to attract many worshippers. Only Taoist Priest Ding Xuan of Qingfeng Temple cares about the people. As long as the people are not persecuted by demons and monsters, Qingfeng Temple is worth it even if there is no money for worshipping Taoist priests.
Lin Ye listened to the old Taoist's righteous words, but his expression was a little strange. Don't say it, the old Taoist really did it. He lived in seclusion in Qingfeng Temple, and he would ignore anything that had to do with ghosts. It's just that his original intention was different. It's not that he didn't care about the money for incense, but that he cherished his life.
"Today, an evil ghost was born and caused cholera in the world. Disciple Ding Xuan, following the order of the ancestor, borrowed the luck of Qingfeng Temple to kill the ghost!"
A shout of "Kill the ghost"!
The Taoist aura around the old Taoist seemed to have heard the command and began to flow into his body. The old Taoist's momentum was rising rapidly, and in the end, the power was so strong that Lin Ye had to pull Daogu back dozens of meters.
"Heavenly man..."
Zhang Wuji, who also retreated, had a look of shock on his face, and muttered to himself: "Even if he is not at the level of a celestial being, he is at the level of a half-celestial being. It is worthy of Qingfeng Temple to have such a strong person."
Lin Ye was also surprised when he heard Zhang Wuji's words. Is this old Taoist's strength at the level of a celestial being?
You are at the celestial realm but still so cowardly?
No matter how cunning you are, this is not the way to go.
This is not called living a life of misery, it's called self-abuse.
"Master... Master has reached this state by borrowing the Dao rhyme condensed by our uncles, uncles, and ancestors of our Qingfeng Temple. Master... Master borrowed the Dao rhyme this time, which is... equivalent to..."
Daogu was crying and couldn't say anything. Lin Ye was stunned. Looking at the old Taoist's back, he muttered with some dissatisfaction: "We are all disciples. Master, you are too partial. You tell Daogu everything, but you tell me nothing."
The old Taoist turned around to look at Daogu and Lin Ye one last time, with a complicated look in his eyes. The next moment, he slowly floated down towards the huge pit.
boom!
The ghost fog under the giant pit suddenly exploded and gushed out three seconds later, reaching a height of a hundred feet, covering the sky. The entire sky of Shangyang City was shrouded in the ghost fog.
However, after only three seconds, the ghost fog dissipated.
That’s right, it is dissipating rather than falling back.
As the ghost fog dissipated, a roar suddenly came from the huge pit.
The sound made the earth tremble. Lin Ye and Zhang Wuji's expressions became nervous. The roar alone could make the earth tremble. It was definitely the voice of the Ghost King.
"retreat!"
Zhang Wuji gave Lin Ye a look, and Lin Ye pulled Dawu, who was kneeling on the ground in a daze, and retreated towards Shangyang City without saying a word.
The Ghost King might be coming out soon, and it would be too late if we didn’t run away.
"Qingfeng Temple!"
Just when Lin Ye and Zhang Wuji ran a mile away, a cold voice came from the huge pit. The next moment, the temperature of the entire surrounding area dropped sharply, and ghost fog slowly poured out from the huge pit, surging ten feet above the ground.
At the top of the ghost fog, in the ghost fog that kept emerging, a figure walked out of the black fog and stood on the ghost fog.
Lin Ye and Zhang Wuji both saw this figure. The moment they saw this figure, Zhang Wuji trembled all over, while Lin Ye fell into a daze.
"Wake up, don't be confused!"
Zhang Wuji slapped Lin Ye on the head, and Lin Ye recovered. He dared not look at the figure again.
This is the Ghost King.
Just a glance from a mile away was enough to make him feel like he had lost his soul.
Lin Ye finally understood why Judge Cui, Judge Lu, and so many city gods in the underworld were no match for him.
Such strength was beyond his comprehension.
In the real world, the gods in those mythological stories that are circulated among the people are probably no more than this.
In the inner courtyard of a mansion in Shangyang City, a woman put down her brush in the study. In front of her, a poem had just been written on the rice paper.
The flowers look like clothes and the clouds look like faces; the spring breeze blows against the threshold and the dew is gorgeous.
If we were not on the top of the Jade Mountain, we would have met under the moon on the Jade Terrace.
There was a look of satisfaction on the woman's face, but the next moment her eyes turned towards the south of the city and her figure disappeared on the spot.
"Three ants."
The Ghost King appeared in the world, and the sky was filled with ghost fog. Those cold words meant that Lin Ye and the other two had been noticed by the Ghost King.
At that moment, Lin Ye felt cold all over.
It was the same cold voice, but the feeling given to Lin Ye by the female demon fairy was pure coldness, as if her voice should be like that, whereas the coldness of the ghost king made people feel fear and chill from the bottom of their hearts.
But the next moment, this feeling of chill all over the body disappeared, and Lin Ye discovered that the Ghost King was not looking at them, but towards the direction of Shangyang City.
"Your Mightiness……"
The Ghost King spoke, but before he could finish his words, the sky was filled with green dots, and Lin Ye saw small grasses blooming among the green dots. Each blade of grass seemed to be strangling the ghost fog in this world, destroying it, including the ghost fog under the Ghost King's feet.
"Go away, this is not a place for you to act so recklessly."
In mid-air, Lin Ye only saw the back of a woman in green.
She has a slim figure, wearing a green dress with fluttering sleeves, and there are blades of grass under her feet.
"Who are you? Why are you going against me?"
Even without the ghost fog, the Ghost King still floated high in the sky, but his eyes were full of fear as he looked at the woman in green.
After the great war, a remnant of his soul managed to escape, but in order to restore his own strength over the past few hundred years and to avoid being discovered by those practitioners, he completely blocked his five senses and knew nothing about the outside world.
It was not long ago that he woke up after being called by the Twin Ghost Kings.
In his time, there were a total of thirteen demon fairies in the world, but none of them could match the one in front of him.
This meant that the other party became a demon fairy after him, but what made him wary was the strength displayed by the other party, which was not inferior to the demon fairies of his era.
The green-clothed woman did not respond. The Ghost King frowned and said, "Are you planning to go there too? If so, you can join forces with me. With our combined strength, we can definitely break through the barrier and enter."
Apart from that place, the Ghost King could not think of anything else that could attract a demon fairy to stay in such a remote place. It was only after he fell asleep in this place that he accidentally discovered that place.
The woman in blue still didn't reply, but she expressed her meaning with her actions.
Small blades of grass appeared around the Ghost King, but were soon swallowed up by the ghost mist spreading from his body. However, before one blade of grass was swallowed up, two more would appear the next moment, and the number of blades of grass kept increasing. In the end, the Ghost King's entire body was surrounded by the grass.
"In view of the agreement signed between the demon and ghost worlds, I will seal you for ten years. It won't be so easy next time."
The woman's cold voice was heard, and the next moment Lin Ye saw the Ghost King wrapped in grass. His entire figure went directly towards the northern sky, and soon turned into a green dot and disappeared at the edge of the sky.
"This... is so strong."
Zhang Wuji swallowed his saliva. The Demon Immortal and the Ghost King were at the same level. In Zhang Wuji's opinion, although this guy's battle record was horrific, this Ghost King reached the Ghost King level earlier. Even if he hadn't recovered his full strength yet, he should be able to tie with this guy.
But now it seems that there is a big gap between the two. This Ghost King was directly taken away by this person. Since he could be taken away, if this person had murderous intentions, he might really be able to kill this Ghost King.
Lin Ye was also shocked, but he was thinking about something else at the moment.
The Ghost King was sealed for ten years.
The old Taoist just happened to ask him to protect Daogu for ten years.
And considering that the Ghost King just uttered the three words "Qingfeng Temple", he will definitely not let Qingfeng Temple go after he escapes.
He always felt that this person did it on purpose.
Otherwise, he could have been conferred for three to five years, or thirty to fifty years, but it happened to be just ten years.
Lin Ye didn’t think that what the Taoist said to him could be hidden from this person’s ears, or in other words, in the entire Shangyang City, perhaps only the Taoist scriptures behind Qingfeng Temple could be hidden.
"No one is allowed to enter here!"
The voice of the demon fairy came again. Lin Ye looked up from his thoughts, but found that the demon fairy had disappeared. However, the huge pit where the Ghost King came out was now filled with small grasses. These small grasses actually filled up the huge pit directly. The ground behind was covered with grass, and there was no sign that there was a huge pit underneath.
