My Immortal Brother-in-law

Chapter 10: Just like Zhen Yuan, worshipping the heaven and the earth
Have you ever seen a peacock in a zoo pacing rapidly from side to side when it is angry?

If you haven't seen a peacock, have you ever seen chickens fighting?
Kong Xuan first walked to the left, then to the right, and walked for more than ten seconds before he exhaled a breath of foul air. With a feather shadow that gradually dissipated, he came to stand in front of Zhong Suli.

"Brother, I..."

Zhong Suli instinctively wanted to say something, but Kong Xuan took a deep breath and raised his hand to stop Zhong Suli from speaking.

He slowly squatted down, adjusted the hem of his robe, and spoke to Zhong Suli.

"You have always been a mortal. If even I can't see your whereabouts, then even if a saint sees you, I'm afraid you will be the same as me.

So, why did you approach me?
Just because you wanted to?"

When asked this, Kong Xuan took a deep breath and repeated it again.

"Just because you wanted to?"

"Yes."

Facing Kong Xuan's question, Zhong Su nodded calmly and responded slowly.

"Like Big Brother said, for the past twenty-two years, I have been just a mortal.

The only time I had a chance to practice Qi was when I was eight years old and Wen Zhong was six years old. My father wanted me and Wen Zhong to travel away from home together.

It’s just that Wen Zhong was born with three eyes and immense strength. Even without any training, he could fight dozens of adults with his six-year-old body and remain undefeated. But I don’t have that ability.

So, even though I am two years older than my second brother, I still didn’t dare to leave home and travel far away.”

"You're right."

Kong Xuan took up what Zhong Su had said and continued on his own.

"I have heard about you. The reputation of the Zhong family doctor has spread throughout Yindu and Chaoge. Everyone says that you are neither good at literature nor martial arts, and will ruin the reputation of the former wise minister Fu Shuo.

You have always been a mortal and have always stayed in the capital of the Shang Dynasty. When Wu Yi was in power, you lived in Chaoge. When Tai Ding was in power, you moved to Yindu.

So you didn’t have a chance and you didn’t really see any of the big coaches.”

Having said that, Kong Xuan nodded slightly, then held Zhong Sulu's hand.

"Brother Su, I'm afraid I misunderstood you. At least even if I didn't misunderstand you, this should have nothing to do with you.

But, Sudi, can you tell me how you felt when you came into contact with me recently?
Since your father, Grand Tutor Zhong, passed away, you have treated me like a delicacy. At least there should be some feeling that supports you to get close to me."

"indeed."

Zhong Su nodded very decisively. After all, the man in front of him was the number one person under the saint recognized in the Conferred God Era!
"After I received the news of my father's death, I was depressed for seven days, and it was not until my second brother Zigan took me to the palace to see the emperor that I felt better.

That time, when I saw you again, my brother, I felt differently.

It's like instinct, or some kind of natural attraction, I feel for you..."

"Okay, that's it!"

Kong Xuan interrupted Zhong Su's words with a strange look on his face. Then he pulled Zhong Su up and straightened her messy clothes.

“Don’t say any more. If you continue, it’s like you’re entering into a marriage.

I already know what's going on. There is indeed something special about you, and it's even possible that that characteristic was just a random choice made by some bored old man.

But that’s not your problem, and the masters won’t be bored and come to trouble me, Kong Xuan.

I am not arrogant, I am the kind of person who can really tear off the face of saints. There are less than one handful of people like me in the wilderness.

So the answer appeared. You are indeed an excellent seed for Qigong practice, but as you said, you missed the opportunity to practice Qigong in your youth.

Until now, you are twenty-two years old. Maybe it is instinct or God's will, your talent is forcing you to embark on the path of immortality.

I don't know whether we are destined to be together, but I am indeed the most qualified person in Yindu City to lead you into the Tao. You instinctively approach me, and I have indeed become your guide. This is reasonable.

but……. "

As he spoke, Kong Xuan's expression became more and more strange. He frowned and couldn't help but kick Zhong Su lightly.

"But you, bastard, have such a powerful talent that even I got some of it for free.

In the past, I have seen the great supernatural power of reversing cause and effect, but that basically only appeared in saints.

Just like Zhunti Jieyin, who only needed to establish a religion and make a great vow, he was able to attain enlightenment and become a saint. And just like Yuanshi Tongtian, who only needed to establish a religion, he was able to become a saint.

They were strong enough, so Heaven and Earth approved of their decision and were willing to lend them their Taoism and sainthood when they had just established their sect and had not even made any real promises of fulfilling their merits.

It stands to reason that only people like them can gain the recognition of heaven and earth, be allowed to trace cause and effect, and become saints on the spot.

But you, why does the world love you? Is it because you are passionate and shameless enough?

As soon as I proposed to teach you the skills, the heaven and earth turned the supernatural power I was going to teach into your innate supernatural power. Why would the heaven and earth be willing to lend money to you?

Even the heaven and earth don't want me to be your creditor, he simply cut off the cause and effect between you and me, he must lend you himself!"

Having said that, Kong Xuan sighed deeply, then patted Zhong Su's shoulder heavily.

"Brother Su, you have to remember that if you don't owe me, then you owe the heaven and earth, and you have to repay all that.

During the Dragon and Phoenix Catastrophe in the past, the Tianqin clan and the noodles in the sea fought for three kalpas, a total of 388,800 years.

Afterwards, during the great calamity between wizards and liches, Ying Lin, Mao Yu Kun and his party fought against the great wizard for seven epochs, totaling nine hundred and seven thousand two hundred years.

To be honest with you, those great clans in the past all fell into decline due to disasters, but now it is the world of the human race. Sooner or later, there will be a catastrophe among the human race that will last for millions of years.

You..., a guy like you who is loved by heaven and earth, I'm afraid you are one of the many children of disaster in the future?

In short, this catastrophe will not end for a million years. You owe the heaven and earth so much that you will definitely not be able to escape it.

I hope we can meet again after this catastrophe, fellow Daoist Zhong Su!"

Having said that, Kong Xuan waved his left hand, and the two of them disappeared in the blink of an eye, and then reappeared in Zhong Sulu's mansion.

Looking at his room, his bed and quilt, Zhong Su looked at Kong Xuan in surprise.

Facing Zhong Su's gaze, Kong Xuan grinned and continued.

"I'll just send you home so you don't have to go through all that trouble. I'm going to leave for the town in two days. After all, I'm your guide, so you have to see me off then.

In addition, since you can reverse cause and effect, all your supernatural powers in the future will probably only come from heaven and earth.

From now on, you don’t have to worship the Three Pure Ones and Buddhism. Just be like the great master Zhen Yuanzi in the Wuzhuang Temple and look up to the sky and bow down to the earth.

Don't let people who practice cultivation fool you on this point, or you'll end up with extra karma for nothing, remember?"

"I see, thank you, brother!"

Listening to Kong Xuan's earnest instructions after he calmed down, Zhong Su suppressed the emotion in his heart and held Kong Xuan's hands emotionally.

Seeing Zhong Su's moved expression, about to cry, Kong Xuan let go of Zhong Su with a smile and said.

"Don't act like a child. It's not like we'll never see each other again. If you have nothing to do, come to my Sanshan Pass to discuss the Dao. When I'm free, I'll come to visit you too.

Today I wanted to accept a useless disciple. Although I have lost my disciple now, I have gained a Taoist companion who was personally led by me into the Tao.

It can be said that it is a blessing in disguise.

That’s all for today. I’m going back to sleep and you should have a good rest too.

Two days later around noon, don't forget to come to the city gate to see me off, otherwise I will definitely beat you up.

gone! "

Having said this, Kong Xuan disappeared leisurely in Zhong Su's room.

Zhong Sulu sat back on the couch absentmindedly, thinking about what Kong Xuan had said while feeling his instinct to mend the sky with the constant craving for the five colors and five qi.

At the same time, at Kong Xuan's home.

Hu Jiao, who was extremely anxious because her master's breath had disappeared, looked at Kong Xuan who had suddenly returned with a confused look on her face.

But even though Hu Jiao opened her eyes wide, she only saw Kong Xuan coming back by himself, so Hu Jiao asked immediately.

"Wait a minute, where's my master?
Where did you hide my master?

I will fight you!!!"
