This Taoist Master is too Frivolous-Chapter 454 - 318: Xu Yang: Wait until I become the Underworld Emperor…

Chapter 454: Chapter 318: Xu Yang: Wait until I become the Underworld Emperor…

“…”

Grandmaster Chengming and Wang Hou exchanged glances again, their eyes full of confusion.

The son of Emperor Beiyin of Fengdu?

This is simply preposterous, too absurd!

“What?”

“Don’t you believe it?”

Seeing their expressions, Xu Yang sighed, “Don’t talk about you not believing it, even I didn’t believe it at first… I’m just an ordinary person, how could I have anything to do with Emperor Beiyin of Fengdu, who is such an ancient and powerful being?”

“But during my trip to Fengdu City, I confirmed the truth of my origins. My father, Emperor Beiyin of Fengdu, also conveyed to me through Lord Cui that he owes me too much and will make it up to me once he has pacified the netherworld.”

Grandmaster Chengming and Wang Hou both couldn’t help but sigh.

“No wonder someone as important as Lord Cui from the underworld would come and go at your beck and call… No wonder the master of the Ghost Market in Fengdu City would leave a ghost market for you.”

Wang Hou couldn’t help but exclaim, “I didn’t expect that you would have such a background.”

“One’s origins are determined by fate.”

Xu Yang waved his hand and said righteously, “Minister Wang, old senior, I hope you can help me keep this matter a secret… My achievements today as Xu Yang are thanks to my own efforts and hard work. I don’t want to be labeled as a ‘Prince of the Underworld.'”

Having learned the reason for the explosion of his “Golden Elixir,” Xu Yang felt much more relaxed.

However, the system prompt in his mind was ringing more and more frequently. Xu Yang guessed that it might be because Lord Cui had taken action to send the “Ominous” to the unfortunate ghost, and then ordered the underworld soldiers of the Underworld’s Bureau of Laws to spread the word, causing panic again.

This was a good thing.

Xu Yang estimated that with this progress, it wouldn’t take long for him to master most of the divine powers he had learned and then condense them into divine power talismans, which would take his cultivation strength to the next level.

The key point was that he still had nearly three million merit points.

Breaking through to the Spirit Refining Realm was just a matter of a moment’s thought.

But there was no rush to breakthrough.

From the Divine Transcendence Realm to the Spirit Refining Realm, the most significant change would be the ability to cultivate the Daoist primordial spirit and master the “Daoist flying sword.” Xu Yang already knew this, so breaking through to the Spirit Refining Realm would not add much to his strength.

It would be better to practice more divine powers before that.

He chatted with Wang Hou and Grandmaster Chengming for a while.

The ginkgo tree was very excited and always wanted to lower its branches to touch Xu Yang, which made Xu Yang very embarrassed. Seeing that Grandmaster Chengming’s face was starting to turn green, Xu Yang hurriedly said goodbye, “Minister Wang, Old Senior, I have other matters to attend to, so I’ll leave first.”

Grandmaster Chengming pretended to be reluctant, “It’s already afternoon, why not stay for some vegetarian meals?”

Xu Yang: “Next time, definitely next time.”

He summoned the auspicious clouds and headed straight for Xishan Wanshou Palace.

The Xishan Wanshou Palace was becoming more and more prosperous.

Old Grandpa stayed inside the palace all day, visiting old friends, teaching disciples, and forgetting all about the fact that he had a large group of subordinates and brothers in the underworld.

When Xu Yang saw Old Grandpa, he was teaching Wang Wei alone.

Wang Wei was the disciple Xu Yang had personally recruited. He was the youngest and had the shortest cultivation time among the “Yuan” generation of Jingming Sect. Before joining Xishan Wanshou Palace, he had been cultivating for only a month and had already reached the third level of the Qi Refining Realm.

After joining Xishan Wanshou Palace, Wang Wei received teachings from Xu Yang’s [Divine Ascension Scripture]. Plus, with the careful guidance of Li Yuanchang and other disciples, as well as Old Grandpa’s training this time, he had reached the fourth level of the Qi Refining Realm in just half a month.

His energy was stable, and his cultivation was solid; he could step into the fifth level of Qi Refining Realm at any time. freewebnøvel.com

“I pay my respects to the supreme sage.”

Upon seeing Xu Yang, Wang Wei respectfully saluted.

Wang Wei was originally a “fan” of Xu Yang and admired him greatly. After joining Xishan Wanshou Palace and learning about Xu Yang’s deeds, he regarded Xu Yang as a godly figure in his heart.

“Not bad, not bad.”

Xu Yang nodded with satisfaction, “Keep up the good work and don’t let your talents go to waste.”

After giving a few more pointers, Wang Wei retreated respectfully.

Xu Zhiyuan watched Wang Wei’s retreating figure and laughed, “He’s a good seedling. If he’s carefully taught, he can achieve Dao in two years and step into the Divine Transcendence Realm within ten years. In the future, he has the potential to become a Spirit Refining cultivator.”

Xu Yang replied, “I’m too busy running around all day, and I’m not very good at teaching disciples. I’m afraid I might hold him back… Why don’t you stay in the mortal world, Grandpa, and help me look after Wanshou Palace?”

“I’m a ghost. How can I stay in the mortal world for long?”

Xu Zhiyuan sighed, “There’s a separation between humans and ghosts, between yin and yang. I need to return to the underworld eventually.”

“What if I can find a way to let Grandpa stay in the mortal world?”

Xu Yang said with a smile.

He sold a mystery and didn’t mention the “City God’s decree” matter.

Xu Zhiyuan’s eyes widened and he scolded, “How?”

“In my life, I was a supreme sage of the Daoist sect. After I died, I commanded hundreds of thousands of Yin spirits. They called me a ghost hero. Should I refine a decree of a minor official, mountain god, or land god? And in the future, be called upon by those immortals?”

“A minor official or minor god can’t match your status, Grandpa.”

Xu Yang continued, “I think only a high-ranking divine position can match your grand presence.”

“Nonsense!”

Xu Zhiyuan glanced at Xu Yang and said, “High-ranking divine beings who have been granted seals by the heavens and the earth are rarely seen in the mortal world, and each of them has an extraordinary background. Even if our Jingming Sect’s ancestors return to the mortal world, I fear they wouldn’t be able to deal with them… I’d rather go back to the underworld and fight for my territory with my brothers.”

“When I unify the wilderness, I’ll win over the Ten Halls Yama Kings and recruit them. With their support, I can join the Underworld Palace and maybe even get a position… Those old Daoists of the Maoshan Sect have been thriving in the underworld, not bad at all.”

This…

Grandpa’s behavior is too much like Song Jiang’s, always thinking about recruiting and winning others over?

Why not consider overthrowing the underworld and rebuilding the Underworld Palace?

But on second thought, his own father is the Underworld Emperor, and the underworld is his father’s territory, his territory… How can he let his grandfather rebel against his father?

After contemplating for a few seconds.

Xu Yang said, “Grandpa, if you want to go to the underworld, I can talk to Lord Cui and ask him to arrange a position for you. We can even aim for the role of Judge after gathering some experience.”

His words amused Xu Zhiyuan.

“Judge?”

“Do you know what rank the Judge holds in the underworld?”

“Our Jingming Sect’s ancestors hold the position of Heavenly Master in the Heavenly Court, which is slightly higher than that of an ordinary Judge in the Underworld Palace, but still inferior to the chief judges like Cui Jue… Even if I really join the underworld and work there for thousands of years, I’m afraid I still can’t hold the position of Judge!”

Xu Zhiyuan helplessly said, “As for the City God… The City God is an important official of the Underworld Palace in the mortal world. His position is no less than that of an ordinary Judge. Unless our family tomb is emitting green smoke… otherwise, we should not… Huh?”

He had not finished speaking when he suddenly looked at the token in Xu Yang’s hand and exclaimed, “What is this?”

“This is a City God’s decree.”

Xu Yang said, “An unowned City God’s decree granted by the heavens and earth. Grandpa, if you take it and refine it, you can become a City God in the mortal world immediately.”

He then took out the token given to him by Cui Jue and summoned Cui Jue.

Bang!

The decree exploded.

Out of the black smoke came the incarnation of Cui Jue, who laughed, “Brother Xu Yang… You’ve just returned to the mortal world and you’re already thinking about me? Let me tell you… those ghosts you asked me to deal with…”

“Huh?”

It was then that he saw Xu Zhiyuan and asked, “Brother Xu Yang, who is this…”

Before Xu Yang could respond, Xu Zhiyuan recognized Cui Jue and immediately bowed with a fist, saying, “Minor demon Xu Zhiyuan, greets Judge.”

“Xu Zhiyuan?”

Cui Jue’s eyes moved, he responded, and quickly helped Xu Zhiyuan up and said, “So it’s Supreme Sage Xu… Supreme Sage, there is no need to be so polite, since I am considered Xu Yang’s brother, you, his grandfather, are also my senior.”

Xu Zhiyuan: “…”

Cui Jue asked politely, “Where is Brother Xu currently living in the underworld? Are you used to the environment?”

Xu Zhiyuan was even more confused.

He, a ghost…

Had come to the mortal world and stayed for so long his presence had become “illegal.”

Logically speaking, Cui Jue, an Underworld powerhouse, should have slapped him to death upon seeing him, but… the situation seems off.

Xu Yang chuckled and took over the conversation, saying, “Big Brother Cui, my grandpa has been developing in the Black Forest… His underworld soldiers are almost united between the wilderness of Fengdu City and Wrongful Death City… But his ambition is not to rule as a king, but to work in the underworld… Can you help arrange it?”

“Arrange, of course!”

Cui Jue immediately agreed, “Brother Xu Yang, what position do you think is more appropriate to arrange?”

Xu Yang: “How about… let him work in your Bureau of Laws first, and when the timing is right, he can compete for the position of Judge or something?”

Cui Jue’s face darkened, “Nonsense… if your grandfather works in the Bureau of Laws, he will start directly as a Judge… He has done a great service to our underworld, to the Emperor, and to you… To be honest, I even want to give up my position for him.”

Xu Zhiyuan: “…”

His whole being, as a ghost, was numbed.

I…

I contributed to the underworld?

Even helped the Emperor???

What situation is this? Why don’t I know anything about it?

Xu Yang flaunted in front of his grandfather, feeling refreshed and pleased. After exchanging pleasantries for a while, Cui Jue left.

Before he left, he promised that if Grandpa returned to the underworld, he would personally escort him to Fengdu City.

He would keep the position of Judge in the Underworld’s Bureau of Laws open for Grandpa at all times.

After Cui Jue left, Xu Yang said proudly, “Grandpa, now you know your grandson’s abilities, right? Not to mention a Judge, when I take over the underworld and become the Emperor… even if I create an Eleventh Hall and let you be the Eleventh Yama King of the Underworld Palace, it won’t be a problem.”

Xu Zhiyuan: “…”

He rubbed his temples and said, “Wait a minute, don’t talk. I’m a little dizzy!”
