Chapter 38 Yue Qing: Today is an auspicious day, bring me my supreme imperial weapon!
The Celestial Master's investiture is just a formality; giving him a title and a few words of praise is enough. Because passing on the Celestial Master's lineage is no small matter, the real ceremony takes place at night.
After a few casual, half-hearted words, Zhang Chulan was quickly eliminated.
The old master squinted: "At his age, I don't understand why old Lu is in such a hurry?"
Tian Jinzhong laughed and said, "The Lu family has strict rules, so it's natural that the Tongtian Talisman cannot be passed on to one's own descendants. Now that your grand-disciple has shown such talent, it's time for Brother Lu to shine!"
Suddenly, the old master turned to Feng Zhenghao and asked, "Little Feng, what do you think?"
Because of Wang Bing's matter, at this awards ceremony, if we exclude the Old Celestial Master, among the remaining ten elders, only Feng Zhenghao and Lü Ci are left. When asked about this, Feng Zhenghao was obviously a little surprised, but after all, he is the president of the World Association. After a moment's thought, he immediately replied: "They are all rising stars in the world of supernatural beings. Now that Zhang Chulan has won the championship of the Luo Tian Grand Ceremony, and the Old Celestial Master has Lingyu Zhenren, I think the Celestial Master's Mansion will surely reach new heights in the future."
Upon hearing this, the old master smiled but made no comment.
See, young people really know how to talk.
As for Lü Ci, at this moment, he had no interest whatsoever in Zhang Chulan, who had won the championship. Instead, his gaze was fixed on the black-robed Taoist in front of Lu Jin, and he looked extremely eager.
Yue Qing is a talented person; no matter what, we must let this kid have his way.
If all else fails, we can marry a member of the Lü family to him!
The old master saw it all and cared about it deeply.
In the center of the arena, Zhang Chulan stood to the side, wearing the attire symbolizing the leader of the Luo Tian Grand Ceremony, but in reality, he had no presence whatsoever.
Lu Jin held the Tongtian Talisman with a bright smile and then spoke up: "According to the agreement before the conference, this Tongtian Talisman should have been given to the first place winner of the Luotian Grand Ceremony. However, the Old Celestial Master talked to me and said that since the first place winner has inherited the position of Celestial Master, this Tongtian Talisman should be awarded to the second place winner."
After hearing those words, Zhang Chulan breathed a sigh of relief.
If he really gets this, then in the eyes of the outside world, Zhang Chulan will possess two of the Eight Extraordinary Techniques: Qi Body Source Flow and Tongtian Talisman. In the world of supernatural beings, the value of the Eight Extraordinary Techniques is self-evident; having even one is already remarkable, let alone two – that's double the joy!
Of course, fortune and misfortune are intertwined. Without absolute strength, possessing this thing is like carrying a treasure and inviting trouble.
Although Zhang Chulan is shameless, he is still very aware of his situation.
His purpose in this journey is solely to uncover the truth, and even if the Heavenly Record were to reward him in the end, he would still discard it.
In other words, Yue Qing is more powerful than him. With this guy blocking the way, his Qi Body Source Flow can be overshadowed.
Looking at the Tongtian Talisman in Lu Jin's hand, Yue Qing didn't rush to take it. Instead, he asked, "Master, you have lived a flawless life. If you give this to me, won't it damage your reputation and that of the Lu family?"
"I'm very pleased that you think that way," Lu Jin's smile deepened. He hadn't expected the kid to have considered this aspect. "But not many people in the circle know about our relationship. Even if they do, you are still a descendant of the Sanyi lineage, a disciple of Wudang, and only lastly my grand-disciple. There's nothing to criticize about that, so don't worry."
Old Master Lu spoke sincerely. After all, even without Yue Qing, according to the rules, he would have passed the skill to Zhang Lingyu to balance the emotions between the two.
It's just that Zhang Lingyu was eliminated early, and the Old Master is good at micro-management. Now it's all good. Instead of letting that Taoist priest benefit, it was given to his own disciple and grand-disciple. Everyone is happy.
Yue Qing received the affirmation and accepted it without hesitation.
"Thank you, sir!"
As for what Zhang Lingyu might think, Yue Qing didn't care.
After all, I've already removed your inner demons, Zhang Lingyu. Is there a problem with sharing some of your opportunities?
At worst, I'll just find an opportunity to put it under your pillow and give it back to you.
It's no big deal!
With the awards ceremony concluded, the Luo Tian Grand Ceremony came to a complete end.
At the same time, the news that the Tongtian Talisman had been inherited by Yue Qing quickly spread. Those in the industry who had watched the Luo Tian Grand Ceremony felt that there was nothing wrong with this result. After all, the reputation of forcing the God of War was far-reaching. If Yue Qing hadn't let Hai admit defeat, even Zhang Chulan's position as the Celestial Master would have been his.
It's just a Heavenly Talisman, which makes perfect sense.
As night fell, the old Celestial Master finished seeing off his guests and returned to the Celestial Master's Hall.
Zhang Chulan and his group stood quietly at the entrance of the Celestial Master's Mansion, waiting. Only Zhang Chulan was feeling quite nervous yet excited.
"Don't worry, Bao'er. I'll ask the advisor about you when he arrives!"
"Yes, I know!"
Just then, Xu Si stubbed out his cigarette, answered a phone call, then muttered a few words to Xu San before turning his gaze to Zhang Chulan: "Chulan, something's come up downstairs, we'll be leaving for a bit. Take good care of the baby!"
Zhang Chulan knew what it was about, and nodded immediately, continuing to wait for the Old Master's arrival.
Feng Baobao looked up at the bright moon in the sky. The moon was bright and the stars were few. A cool breeze blew, gently swaying the fine strands of hair beside her temples. They were as soft and smooth as willow branches in spring. At this moment, her eyes were reserved, revealing her pure innocence.
For Zhang Chulan, tonight's Longhu Mountain is destined to be anything but peaceful.
……
Meanwhile, in Longhu Mountain, as a towering flame lit up, a deafening commotion erupted from all directions, and people were seen venturing into the mountain from different directions.
"Brothers, let's get moving! Let's show Longhu Mountain the power of the Quanxing Sect!"
"With sword in hand, follow me to the Xuanmen Gate to kill Yue Gou and teach him a lesson: once he meets Lao A, he'll never escape!"
"I, Cao Deshuang, am going to take down Yue Qing under my real name!!"
"Kill Yue Qing and seize the Tongtian Scroll!"
……
As a large number of Quanxing members tear off their disguises, they will break through the mountain gate tonight. This battle between hunter and prey is about to erupt.
At the foot of the mountain, employees from both the North China and East China regions of NTD are already in place.
Dou Le patted Xiao Zizai beside him and reminded him, "Old Xiao, when things get heated, you have to restrain yourself."
To calm himself down, Xiao Zizai slapped his face with both hands, the force so great it made a loud crackling sound: "I know, Lao Dou, but I still envy Yue Qing! I really wonder if I'll run into him later!"
Upon hearing this, Xu San and Xu Si glanced at the temporary worker from East China.
What the hell!
This guy's got something!
How dare they target Yue Qing!
Has he been taking too many brain-dead drugs?
Meanwhile, inside the contestants' rooms, a black-robed Taoist priest was incredibly excited as he gazed at the towering flames.
"Junior brother, quickly retrieve my Supreme Emperor Weapon, so that I, the Daoist, can have my fill of slaughter!"
Upon seeing this, Wang Ye quickly said, "Senior brother, you need to calm down. Didn't we say we had to go to Master Tian Jinzhong's place first? We can't be confused here!"
Master Wang is exhausted!
There's nothing we can do; he's already starting to talk nonsense. Who knows what will happen to my senior brother if we start fighting later?
