I Can’t Be Sword God



239 The traditional arts of deyun temple

“You LAN Xuan Yuan Yuan” Li Chu said,”I’ve been there.”

Ye Leng ‘er blinked her eyes, and a look of surprise appeared in her eyes,”you still need to go to that kind of place for a walk?”

“Ahem.” I mean, ” Li Chu said, ” I’ve been there to investigate the yin clan’s descendants. Unfortunately, I didn’t find any traces of them.

“The yin clan was born in the earth trench. It’s extremely difficult for you to find them unless you can make them come to you.” Ye Leng ‘er smiled slyly.”I heard that Chaotian court has been suppressing them very hard recently, and you LAN Pavilion should be an extremely important industry to the yin clan.”

“Thank you,” Li Chu nodded in understanding.

“It’s nothing,” “If you help me, I’ll help you,” ye Leng ‘er said.

As they were talking, du Lanke came to the palace and said, ” master, the second Prince of bulao city has come to visit.

“My second brother?”

Ye Leng ‘er was suspicious and looked at Li Chu.

“I don’t know why he’s here,” Li Chu shook his head.

Ye Leng ‘er said, ” be careful. My second brother is an extremely proud person, but he’s also the most narrow-minded. This time, he lost the first place in the Buddha’s fate Association. He might hold a grudge against you.

She did not know the specific situation of the Buddha’s fate meeting and thought that Li Chu had only simply affected ye Hai’s ranking.

Li Chu also nodded cautiously.

Ye Leng ‘er looked left and right, then got up and hid by the door of the backyard, ” I’ll stay here and watch. If he wants to harm you, I can help him.

“Alright,” he said. Li Chu nodded again.

He also knew that ye Leng ‘er’s thoughts might not be so simple. Compared to being afraid of fighting, she might be more afraid of him being in ye Ling’s team. However, he was open and honest, so he didn’t have to be wary.

He was also a little curious as to why ye Rou had come to his door.

Soon, ye Ling walked in.

He was dressed in a flowing gold robe that was like a noble young master from the Central Plains, and he looked very elegant. Moreover, he came alone and didn’t look like he was here to pick a fight.

Li Chu was slightly relieved. Just as he was about to stand up to welcome them, he heard ye Shuo kneel on the ground with a plop. Fozi, please accept me as your disciple!

Eh?

Li Chu, who was at the front of the hall, and ye Leng ‘er, who was peeking at the back of the hall, both had a face full of question marks.

Li Chu wondered if this person had come to the wrong set.

He then helped ye Ling up and said,”second Prince, are you mistaken?” This is a Daoist temple, and my job is to be a Daoist priest and attend the meeting. It’s just a spur of the moment decision, and it doesn’t mean that I’m a Buddhist.”

Ye Ling raised her head and looked at Li Chu. She said with certainty, ” “I’ve seen your appearance in the kingdom of heaven, and I’ve also seen you casually trigger the magic bell in the mental demon forest. If you’re not the reincarnated son of Buddha, how could you have such power? Fozi, you ran over to be a Daoist priest, could it be that you want to be a Daoist priest?”

Then, he looked left and right, leaned closer to Li Chu, and said in a low voice, ” “Undercover?”

What a spy.

Li Chu covered his face with his hands.

Why are these Buddhists so full of Infernal Affairs?

He had to try his best to explain,”there might be some coincidences in these things, and I’m also investigating some causes and effects. But one thing is for sure. I’m definitely not the reincarnation of a son of Buddha.” If you want to cultivate Buddhism, you’ve found the wrong person.”

“En, Yingluo.”

The second Prince of bulao city seemed to be in a dilemma, but he soon gritted his teeth and said, ” “As long as you’re willing to accept me as your disciple, I’m willing to change my profession and cultivate.”

Ye Ling had made up his mind on this trip.

In the area of acknowledging a master, he had an innate talent and vision.

Aurora Bodhisattva was highly respected in the Western Region. There were not many disciples under him, and they often had to start with immortal bodies. There had always been no lack of mighty people among the Masters.

Although ye Rou had a minor aristocratic status, it was not enough to be valued by Aurora Bodhisattva.

The reason why he was able to become a disciple was because, since he was 11 years old, he had gone to Aurora Palace every day for three consecutive years to sweep and serve. From not being able to enter the sect at the beginning to being received by Aurora Bodhisattva, he was finally listed on the wall.

He concluded that there were only three ways to acknowledge a master.

Bold, meticulous, and thick-skinned.

The benefits of having a master with strong mana were too many to count. In comparison, the initial efforts were nothing.

Li Chu had left a deep impression on him.

“Second Prince, there’s no need to mention this matter again.” However, Li Chu still rejected him firmly.

“I will let you see my sincerity in acknowledging a master.”

Ye Ling left these words full of confidence and then turned to leave.

As the saying went,”lie Shi is afraid of pestering men,” but he couldn’t just blindly pester people. He had to advance when it was time to advance and retreat when it was time to retreat. Only then could he leave a good impression.

Duranke sent him off.

Standing in front of the gate of the deyun sub-temple, priest du consoled him, ”

it’s not a big deal to fail. After all, Qianqian, it’s not that you’re not good enough. It’s just that our deyun temple’s threshold for accepting disciples is too high.

The second Prince of bulao city, who had been so confident in front of Li Chu, suddenly wavered when he heard du Lanke’s words.

He looked at duranke’s back, but he could not figure out where the threshold was.

Could it be …

Am I not old enough?

……

After the second Prince left, ye Leng ‘er also walked out with a surprised look.

“I only told you to stop my second brother, but you actually conquered him.” She exclaimed.

This result was beyond her expectations.

“Your choice of words sounds weird.” Li Chu reminded.

To be honest, ye Hai’s request was also beyond Li Chu’s expectations. It was as if the people he had met recently were all eager to find a master.

“Actually, it’s good that you’ve taken him in. This way, if I want him to stop going against me, he can just come to you directly.” Ye Leng ‘er smiled and shook her head, ” I really didn’t expect that my proud second brother would actually do something like ‘join if you can’t beat him’, something that would give up his dignity.

“Cough cough!”

Du Lanke, who had just reached the door, blushed and coughed a few times when he heard her words.

He wanted to explain, but this was the most difficult path!

But he was also afraid that the little girl would laugh at him for taking the matter to heart.

Sigh.

There was only a long sigh.

……

After ye Leng ‘er left, Li Chu had wanted to head straight to the serene Orchid Pavilion, but du Lanke had brought up another matter.

Shopkeeper Liu’s child had a new plot.

After Li Chu heard this, he did not delay and immediately followed him through the streets and alleys, heading straight for the Liu residence.

Compared to shopkeeper Liu’s wealth, his house was not too luxurious. It had two courtyards and five or six servants. It was clean and tidy.

According to Daoist priest du, shopkeeper Liu was a person who would never forget his roots.

He had made his fortune in the south of the city, so he had been living there. He had not lived a frugal life.

Shopkeeper Liu’s wife could be considered the first benefactor in his life. She had married him when he was penniless and had even brought with her a generous dowry, which was also the capital for shopkeeper Liu to make a fortune. Therefore, after so many years, no matter how many times shopkeeper Liu’s net worth had increased, he had never found a second woman. Moreover, he returned home on time every night and never set foot in the brothels for ordinary banquets, which made his wife feel extremely at ease.

In shenluo city, if a man was rich, it would be easy for him to find a beautiful woman. Shopkeeper Liu’s character was all the more precious.

In the main hall of the Liu mansion, shopkeeper Liu was accompanying his pregnant wife with a worried look.

Shopkeeper Liu had a resolute face, and one could tell at a glance that he was a square-mannered person. Madam Liu had light brows and thin eyes, and she looked very Haggard. She was already pregnant at an advanced age, and coupled with the recent mental torture, her entire person was visibly exhausted.

As soon as Li Chu walked in, shopkeeper Liu immediately stood up to welcome him. He was slightly startled before he cupped his hands and said, ” “I’ll have to trouble little Daoist priest li.”

Although du Lanke had mentioned that he had a young master, shopkeeper Liu was still surprised to see Li Chu.

Li Chu simply returned the greeting and asked with concern, ” “How is Madam’s condition?”

“It’s a good thing that the Kasaya is just a Kasaya.” Shopkeeper Liu turned to look at his wife and sighed.”I just don’t dare to sleep.”

It turned out.

Since last night, Madam Liu had been having a strange dream.

There was a chubby baby covered in red light in the center of the dream realm. There was also a group of ferocious and terrifying bugs that gathered from all directions, wanting to bite the fat baby.

The baby began to cry and wave his hands to hit the bugs. However, some were killed, while some still got close to the baby.

Madame Liu was jolted awake by this.

She didn’t know if this dream was caused by her thoughts day and night, or if there was really some kind of omen or miracle, so she didn’t dare to fall asleep again and had been waiting until now.

Moreover, unlike ordinary dreams, this dream still lingered in her heart for a long time even after she woke up. It was extremely clear and did not fade away at all.

This was very abnormal.

Even though shopkeeper Liu had heard it a few times, he could tell that he loved his wife deeply and was also worried about his child. He held his wife’s hand and frowned. He sighed and said,

“It’s all the root of the disaster that I planted back then. I was worried that if Lao AI’s luck these years was really transferred by an evil method, then if I reported it to the Chaotian Palace, would there be any additional trouble? However, I still hope that little Daoist priest Li can tell me the truth. If you can’t solve this matter, I’ll go to Chaotian Palace to ask for protection from my wife. Even if I have to give up all my wealth, I can’t let my wife and children suffer.”

“Don’t worry, old Liu.” Du Lanke comforted him calmly. “Didn’t I tell you! As long as you find my master, there’s no bad person you can’t deal with, and no evil that you can’t get rid of.”

“I really don’t know how to handle this,” Li Chu shook his head.

It would be easier if it was simply to expel evil.

However, Li Chu did not dare to let Madame Liu try it out, as he did not know if she had been in a dream, an illusion, or some other kind of place.

To Li Chu, as long as he could cut it with his sword, it was not a difficult thing.

But in other words.

If they didn’t know who to kill, then it would be difficult.

“Ah?”

Du Lanke was stunned. He didn’t expect to be slapped in the face for praising Li Chu.

Then, Li Chu said calmly, ” “Don’t worry old du. Shopkeeper Liu, please prepare a quiet room and three long incense sticks. I’ll go ask my master. My master’s cultivation is as profound as the heavens and the earth, and he’s also very knowledgeable. He should know how to deal with this situation.”

Shopkeeper Liu looked at the two Daoist priests from the deyun temple in front of him and secretly praised them.

An ancestor looking for a master?

If little Daoist priest Li’s master couldn’t do anything, would he have to go up and communicate with the spirit?

Despite their complaints, the servants of the Liu residence quickly cleaned up a quiet room for Li Chu and set up the incense table. Li Chu took out the Jade furnace that he always carried with him and inserted three long joss sticks.

A moment later, Yu Qi ‘an’s Sage-like figure appeared with an old locust tree in the background. He was full of the air of a master, almost overflowing from the smoke.

“What’s wrong, my disciple? Didn’t you say that the situation is tense and that you should contact me less?” The old Daoist’s sneaky voice was heard.

“There’s one more urgent matter, so I had to light the incense.” Li Chu said.

Last time, he had found the big sister of Hongmen through his master. Although he had solved the problem for a while, it was not without a price.

I heard that Xie Jin Hua had already brought a few hundred brothers to the South.

If she wanted to pursue her old love, why did she bring so many people?

This matter caused the old Daoist to fall into a deep panic.

Now, he would put a small bag beside him when he slept, ready to run away at any time.

“Alright, then make it short.” Yu Qi ‘an said in a low voice and quickly looked around.

Then, Li Chu briefly explained shopkeeper Liu’s encounter.

now that his second child is about to be born, even though that Gu master has not appeared, but this strange dream of Madame Liu’s …

“This bi an …” Yu Qi ‘an pondered for a moment and said, ” did he offend a soul Gu master from the southern border? ”

“Soul Gu master?”

As usual, his master did not disappoint him. Li Chu’s eyes lit up.

“Gu Masters are rare to begin with, and the soul Pearl Branch is even rarer. Because this branch is too strange, back then in the southern border, it even attracted the collective attack of many other Gu master inheritances, and there was once a time when it was widely said that this branch had already been cut off.”

“But later on, people discovered that there should still be soul Gu Masters who survived and cultivated to an extremely high level. He had returned to southern border a few years ago and killed those enemies who had once besieged the soul Gu master lineage. Because his methods were too strange, even until the end of his revenge, no one had seen this soul Gu master’s appearance.”

“Ordinary Gu Masters raise Gu by capturing poisonous insects and killing them, using such cruel methods to evolve the strongest Gu. Thus, the Gu Masters that the outside world are familiar with mostly play with worms.”

and soul Gu master Suan ni uses a living soul to nurture the Gu!

Li Chu frowned.

This kind of thing sounded a little evil.

“In theory, there is no upper limit to this method. It’s said that in the early ancient times, there were even soul flag Masters who refined the ‘immortal flag’, refining the living soul of a land God into a soul flag in the palm of their hand. They dominated the southern region for a time.”

Refine an immortal as a puppet?

Li Chu was a little surprised.

It sounded like a big deal.

“But …” Yu Qi ‘an frowned and thought for a while.”The soul Gu master you are dealing with has yet to show himself, I wonder what his cultivation level is. Moreover, if that lady Liu was not dreaming, then she was most likely entangled by the living souls of some Gu worms he had sent out, and it would be difficult for others to help. Unless there’s a way to make that Liu Furen’s soul strengthen overnight, or to evolve.”

As he spoke, his eyes flashed, as if he had thought of a solution.

Li Chu quietly waited for his master to continue.

Yu Qi ‘an revealed a confident smile again and asked, ” “Disciple, have you heard of the Suan ni?”

“Primordial spirit projection?”
