Under One Person: The Seeker of the Dao in the Lü Family

Chapter 133 The Old Celestial Master: Zhou Meng, answer the phone for me.

Feng Xingtong turned to Zhang Chulan and gestured for him to look at Ding Shian, who was wearing a Taoist robe from the Celestial Master's Mansion, in the crowd, and said half-jokingly.

"Your senior uncle is now recognized as the second most powerful person on Longhu Mountain. It won't be easy for you, his junior brother, to win the position of Celestial Master from him. Why don't you try to get closer to him?"

"Hehehe..."

Zhang Chulan looked at Ding Shian's burly figure and ignored Feng Xingtong, who was stirring things up behind him.

Compared to Feng Xingtong's innocuous jokes, what's more important now is figuring out how to win the position of Celestial Master from Lü Qian and Ding Shian.

"Ugh, I'm so unlucky!"

He covered his face with his hands, looked up and let out a weak cry, but then he wiped his hands away and looked at Lü Qian and Ding Shian with high spirits.

"Never mind, let's give it our all!"

"I've had so many years of bad luck, it's bound to be my turn to be lucky."

Just as Zhang Chulan was clenching his fists to cheer himself up, Feng Baobao's dull voice rang out, pouring cold water on Zhang Chulan's enthusiasm.

"Are you talking about the little girl from the Liu family that time?"

"Didn't I tell you, you're not unlucky, you're just stupid?"

Feng Baobao scratched her head and looked at Zhang Chulan. Her voice was flat and contained no subjective emotion, but it made Zhang Chulan feel deeply mocked.

"Sister Bao'er..."

Zhang Chulan's originally spirited body immediately collapsed. He weakly stretched out his hands towards Feng Baobao, but in the end, he could only helplessly put them down amidst Feng Xingtong's laughter.

"Hahaha......"

……

The atmosphere on Zhang Chulan's side was somewhat bittersweet, while Lü Qian came to stand in front of Wang Ye.

"Senior Brother Lü, you've come after all."

Wang Ye looked at Lü Qian with a complicated expression. His words were loaded with meaning, but seeing Lü Qian's calm demeanor, he hesitated to speak.

Before leaving, Wang also cast a divination on Wudang Mountain to predict the fortune or misfortune of his upcoming Luotian Grand Ritual.

The interpretation of this divination is only four characters: 【逢龙遇虎】!

This time, he did not enter the inner realm, but he understood the commentary perfectly and had some idea of ​​the calamity he would encounter at the Luotian Grand Ceremony. However, he still descended Wudang Mountain.

It's just because he wanted to get down.

As he descended the mountain, Wang Ye finally understood Lü Qian's earlier advice and the words spoken by the three grandmasters before their deaths.

"It turns out that I was trapped in the Five Finger Mountain in my heart, and had never stepped into this human world."

Wang Ye walked slowly down the mountain, measuring his path in the human world with his own two feet, just like Lü Qian.

Along the way, as he wandered through the world, the shackles in his heart gradually loosened, and he began his journey of "entering the world".

For him, coming to the Luotian Grand Ceremony was simply his own idea, a desire to contribute his modest efforts to the world.

No matter how vast the world is, what I have done is not insignificant!

Wang Ye harbored his own lofty ambitions, but he was not overestimating his abilities.

Now, this grand Taoist ritual has exceeded his capabilities. Originally, Wang Ye only needed to clear away the obstacles along the way for the Celestial Master, since his current abilities were only enough to subdue tigers.

But now, the arrival of Lü Qian and the fate of Ding Shian are like two fierce dragons crossing the river!

The turmoil they caused was far beyond what Wang Ye could control, which is why Wang Ye had such mixed feelings.

The arrival of Lü Qianyi means that this grand Taoist ritual will be even more difficult and fraught with peril.

Lu Qian ignored Wang Ye's complicated feelings. He looked at Wang Ye's nearly lifeless condition and did not criticize him. Instead, he praised him.

"Junior Brother Wang Ye, you acted according to your heart without being reckless, and you followed your instincts without being excessive. You did a very good job this time."

Before he could finish speaking, Lü Qian shook his head and changed the subject, saying, "There is no way to avoid calamity; people bring it upon themselves."

"Even if I hadn't come today, this calamity wouldn't have been so easy to overcome."

"What is destined to come will eventually come. Even if you manage to escape it now, this calamity will eventually return in another form."

As he spoke, Lü Qian patted Wang Ye on the shoulder, causing the weakened Wang Ye to stumble.

He looked at Wang Ye with a mischievous grin, "The way you look now, you don't seem like a Taoist priest who cultivates pure yang, but more like a lecherous scoundrel who has indulged in excessive lust."

"Look at those dark circles under your eyes, and that frighteningly pale face. Let me take you downstairs to rest."

As he spoke, he grabbed Wang Ye by the back of his collar and carried him downstairs to rest.

Halfway there, as Lü Qian was walking through the crowd, he felt a distinct gaze from behind. He looked back and saw, "Fellow Daoist Ding, how have you been?"

He carried Wang Ye and smiled and nodded at Ding Shian, who was looking over.

"Fellow Daoist Lü."

Ding Shian, with his amiable face, smiled at him as well. "We parted ways at Shanhaiguan, and now we meet again. This time, I will have to trouble Fellow Daoist Lü to verify my path."

At this moment, he was like a piece of jade that had been polished by flowing water for thousands of years, and the fierce fighting spirit he used to display seemed to have vanished.

No, it did not disappear. That fighting spirit transformed into the resilient bones of jade, making Ding Shian, who is now surrounded by gold and jade, into what he is today.

"That is exactly what I wish for."

Lu Qian nodded, then led Wang Ye and Bai He towards the accommodations arranged by Longhu Mountain.

Standing there, Ding Shian watched Lü Qian's retreating figure, the calm pool in his eyes growing even deeper.

"May the Heavenly Venerable bestow boundless blessings!"

……

The old master's room, this small courtyard, had its doors and windows tightly closed, blocking out the sunlight.

However, if you are near the doors and windows inside the courtyard, the clattering sound of typing can be clearly heard.

In the dimly lit room, the old master sat cross-legged on the bed, holding a cell phone in his hand, his hands rapidly tapping on the screen.

The crisp sound lingered in the afterimage of the fingertips, and the old master stared wide-eyed, his long white eyebrows flying up in the wind.

"Zhou Meng, if you dare, answer the phone!"

He muttered to himself as he sent his words to the other party, who did not respond.

On the brightly lit phone screen, Zhou Meng's chat box was filled with messages from the Old Celestial Master, but Zhou Meng did not reply.

"That kid's already here, and you didn't even give me a heads-up."

"I've shared every bit of news with you all these years, aren't we good friends now!"

"snort!"

The old Taoist priest, with his puffed-out beard and glaring eyes, turned off his phone and put it aside, but soon the screen lit up again, and the phone rang.

Zhang Zhiwei glanced at the screen; the nickname "Little Monkey Zhou" indicated that the old master was the very person he had been searching for.

"Hey!"

His anger subsided immediately. He reached out, picked up the phone again, and after a moment's hesitation, pressed the answer button.

"Zhou Meng, what brings you to call me? What, did someone from your Wudang sect go missing?"

On the other end of the phone, Zhou Meng chuckled, ignoring the old master's comment, "Alright, how about you borrow my grand-disciple for a bit? Even if that monkey gets first place, he won't become the master."

"Wow, I thought my position as a Celestial Master was some kind of cheap cabbage, how come it's so worthless?"

Upon hearing this, the old master beamed with joy. He pondered for a moment, then said to Zhou Meng on the other end, "Speaking of help, I do have a favor to ask him to do."

"My closed-door disciple is stubbornly unrepentant. Let's see if we can use this young Master Lü's hand to cut off the shackles in his heart."
