Chapter 550: Chapter 324: Who Dares to Bully My Dog?
“Well spoken, if Brother Jin is capable of suppressing the Ghost Immortal one day, I, for one, will sever all ties and form a Daoist couple with Brother Jin.”
Feng Qing’an spoke with a chuckling smile. He would not let his own actions be dictated by such words, retaliating with a tease of his own. He had fewer reasons to worry now, for if Dong Xuan was undisturbed, then why should he be perturbed?
If he were to become the Supreme Immortal, why not give it a try?
“I’m afraid Brother Daoist has overestimated my abilities. If I reach the state of Dong Xuan in the future, it would be a cause for joy. But how could I dare to aspire to suppress your Ghost Immortal wife!”
Half of what Jin Suyan spoke was sincere, half not. Although they were referred to as the ‘Heaven’s Chosen’, they were essentially outstanding peers. Becoming a Yuan Dan was predominantly an expectation.
However, even among this group of Taoist prodigies, fewer than half could reach Dong Xuan. And above Dong Xuan, they could open a Blessed Land and achieve the status of Earth Immortal of Virtue and Blessing. But only one in a hundred may succeed.
Is the way to eternal life in Immortality so easily attainable? Over the course of countless eons, how many have become Heavenly Immortals?
“Hahaha, Brother Jin, you’re truly modest!”
This humble stance exhibited by the female Heavenly Chosen of Taoism caused Feng Qing’an to burst into laughter. He had already learned from Su Qingying about this female prodigy’s prowess. Her ambition was not limited merely to the state of Dong Xuan; she aspired to attain the Phoenix Body.
If she could gain even a fraction of the Phoenix Bloodline, reaching the state of Dong Xuan would merely consume an insignificant amount of her time, and higher realms can be envisioned as well.
“Brother Feng, you won’t be leaving us behind, right?”
Watching Feng Qing’an’s unrestrained playfulness with the true female disciple of Danding Zong, one could hardly hold back any longer. This person chose to remain silent while observing when someone attempted to push Feng Qing’an aside earlier.
“What are you talking about, Brother Daoist? I am the one being left behind. I have merely invited a few fellow daoists on the journey, so I don’t feel lonely.”
Feng Qing’an maintained his composure.
“I wonder if our fellow daoist would mind if we join?”
“I’d be delighted if Brother Daoist isn’t afraid of getting caught and taken back by my Ghost King wife. You’re welcome to join.”
This time, Feng Qing’an accepted without refusal, demonstrating an open-hearted disposition.
“Brother Feng is kind. I am Sun Yuanjie from the Divine Power Sect. If you face any difficulties in the future, feel free to seek me out in my sect.”
“Well said.”
Feng Qing’an waved indifferently.
“Haha, with Brother Feng around, what does it matter if we get caught by your Ghost Immortal wife? With your vast divine power, you can simply offer yourself once more, release us, and look, I have a roll of Joyful Zen from the Buddhist Gate. Would Brother Feng be interested in understanding it?”
Seeing that someone had made an example, others promptly followed suit. However, compared to making a verbal commitment on an unknown favour, this was significantly more tangible.
“Such wonderful Dharma, I’ve been longing for it!”
Feng Qing’an immediately showed delight and accepted a Joyful Buddha statue of two heavenly women embracing each other. Naturally, an undercurrent of Buddhist doctrine ebbed from it, calming one’s mind and heart and not arousing any lascivious thoughts. It was an unparalleled dual cultivation technique.
“I hope Brother Feng doesn’t think less of me for keeping secrets.”
“What secret? Even ordinary mortals know to hold something back.”
Feng Qing’an at this moment embodied the spirit of bold generosity, which upset Xin Fu, who had been vying with Feng.
“Feng Qing’an, I have nothing, if you’re capable, drive me away. If you’re not, I’ll stick to you like a burr.”
“While I do possess some decent tracking skills, Brother Feng, if your speed matches your wit, then you may outstrip me.”
Two Heavenly Chosen who were familiar with Feng Qing’an directly played nonchalant, pestering relentlessly. Thus, the group’s number did not diminish under this persistent nagging.
Even those Heavenly Chosen who had previously declared to leave Feng Qing’an behind shamelessly followed along. However, Feng Qing’an merely laughed a couple of times and didn’t say much about it.
It wasn’t because Feng Qing’an was extraordinarily generous. It was just that it would be difficult to deal with them right now. It was better to have them follow along, and when they entered the Secret Realm, he would find an opportunity to settle scores. Otherwise, if he drove them away now and wanted to meet them in the future, it would be tough. How could he repay the humiliation he had just suffered?
Moreover, while this group seemed unchanged, the most significant shift had occurred. Feng Qing’an, who was previously on the peripherals, now led. The direction they would head was now up to him.
He held half a key, and although the other half was not with him, the true Danding Zong disciples under Hua Qingyu’s gaze were as compliant as a quail, daring not to harbor thoughts or opinions.
In no time, the boundless darkness that extended between heaven and earth emerged in front of their eyes, Feng Qing’an led them, ready to march straight in.
“Brother Feng, where exactly are we heading? This shouldn’t be the direction to the entrance of the Phoenix Secret Realm, should it?”
When they realized they were going off course, someone quickly objected. The location of the entrance to the Secret Realm was already known to all. They weren’t fools who would blindly wander in this gloomy place.
“Aren’t you missing a few Ghost Kings for sacrifice? I’m taking you to a suitable place for hunting.”
Feng Qing’an provided a reasonable explanation. This was indeed the sacrificial requirement for opening the Secret Realm. With Dong Xuan’s watchful eye, these guys had basically not succeeded.
“Hunt Ghost Kings?”
“What? You can’t possibly be thinking of hunting the Ghost Kings of You Huang Ghost Country. That could actually draw out my wife. You wouldn’t just escape and then immediately court death, would you?”
