Chapter 448: Jinxia Cave of Yuquan Shan

Hu Wang was now like a tame little kitten under Duan Fengyun's feet; how could he dare to speak?

Seeing this, Duan Fengyun shifted his attention to the Lang Wang under his other foot and said:

"What about you, Lang Wang? How are you?"

Having experienced the lesson Hu Wang just received, how could Lang Wang dare to act rashly? He hurriedly opened his mouth to beg for mercy:

"Immortal Master, spare my life! Immortal Master, spare my life! This lowly one is willing to submit."

Duan Fengyun released his feet and laughed:

"Hu Wang, look at how sensible Lang Wang is; you just had to suffer a bit."

Hu Wang looked at Lang Wang, thinking disdainfully in his heart:

"Bah, if it weren't for my lesson, you wanting this wolf cub to submit? Keep dreaming."

Of course, Hu Wang did not dare to say such things aloud. Hu Wang took something resembling a medicinal pill from his bosom and swallowed it in one gulp.

After the pill entered his stomach, as the medicinal power spread, Hu Wang's condition improved quite a bit.

After recovering seven or eight parts, Hu Wang immediately knelt on both legs. Seeing this, Lang Wang also knelt down without a word, and the two said in unison:

"Greetings, Master!"

Duan Fengyun nodded and said:

"Good. Today, I shall accept both your Wolf Race and Tiger Race.

Do you know whose Cave Abode this mountain is?"

Lang Wang, who had always been well-informed, spoke up:

"Reporting to Master, this is Yuquan Shan.

Within this Yuquan Shan, there is a Jinxia Cave, and inside Jinxia Cave is Yuding Zhenren!"

Upon hearing this, Duan Fengyun was delighted and said:

"I didn't expect that guy, the Martial Dao Gate, to be so reliable this time, sending me directly to Yuding Zhenren. Not bad, not bad."

Duan Fengyun pretended to be indifferent and said:

"What kind of bullshit Yuding Zhenren is that? How come I have never heard of him?

Who is he, and what is his status?"

Hearing Duan Fengyun's voice, Lang Wang looked around and signaled for Duan Fengyun to lower his voice:

"Master, please keep your voice down. The background of this Yuding Zhenren is not simple.

It is said that Yuding Zhenren's master is the famous Yuanshi Tianzun.

And Yuding Zhenren's disciple is the Judicial Heavenly God Yang Jian, who shakes the Three Realms.

Although Yuding Zhenren's magic power is low, no one dares to touch him; this is the reason."

Hu Wang looked at Lang Wang. He hadn't even known there was such a great god on this Yuquan Shan before; it seems this Lang Wang is very scheming.

Hu Wang shouted:

"Lang Wang, how did you know that Yuding Zhenren was in this Yuquan Shan?"

Lang Wang said embarrassedly:

"In the past, when Erlang Shen Yang Jian was campaigning against the Monster Race, my magic power was low at the time. Just as I was about to be executed by Erlang Shen, it was Yuding Zhenren who spoke up to save me.

Yuding Zhenren said I was just a small monster and asked Erlang Shen to spare me, which is how I saved my life.

Hu Wang, don't you find it strange that every so often, a terrifying aura would come here?

That was Erlang Shen Yang Jian; he came to visit Yuding Zhenren."

Hu Wang suddenly realized after hearing this:

"No wonder, no wonder great beings came here every so often.

I thought there was some treasure on this mountain that attracted this great god, but I didn't expect it to be Erlang Shen Yang Jian!"

Duan Fengyun asked after hearing this:

"Then, Lang Wang, do you know where Yuding Zhenren's Jinxia Cave is?"

Lang Wang pointed not far from them and said:

"Master, Yuding Zhenren's Jinxia Cave is behind that bamboo forest in front.

Master, are you planning to go and meet Yuding Zhenren?"

Duan Fengyun nodded and said:

"Indeed, I want to see what kind of demeanor this Yuding Zhenren, who could teach the number one War God of the Three Realms, possesses." Just as Lang Wang was about to speak, he was stopped by Hu Wang, who said:

"Then Master, please be careful. We will wait here for your return!"

Duan Fengyun nodded and then transformed into a streak of firelight, charging directly forward.

Watching Duan Fengyun leave, Lang Wang looked at Hu Wang and said:

"Hu Wang, what did you mean by pulling me just now?"

Hu Wang replied:

"Lang Wang, were you just trying to stop me from speaking to Master?

What is the meaning of this?"

Lang Wang said:

"Indeed, I certainly wanted to remind Master. So what? Is there a problem?"

Hu Wang laughed:

"Lang Wang, are you trying to acknowledge a master?

Think about it: if that person just now goes to find Yuding Zhenren, has a conflict with him, and kills Yuding Zhenren, then once Erlang Shen finds out, how miserably will that person die?

Or, if that person happens to run into Erlang Shen while looking for Yuding Zhenren, won't he die a miserable death?"

As long as that guy angers Erlang Shen, he will absolutely be doomed without a burial ground.

By then, we can live freely again; are you stupid?"

Upon hearing Hu Wang's words, Lang Wang suddenly realized and said:

"That's right, why didn't I think of that just now?

Hu Wang, your brain is still a bit more useful.

You're right, as long as that person from just now is dead, I will be free again."

Hu Wang laughed and said:

"Then let's wait here; if that person doesn't return in three days, I think he definitely won't be coming back.

By then, we will each go our separate ways; you walk your broad road, and I'll cross my single-plank bridge.

We will not interfere with each other."

At this moment, Duan Fengyun, who was rushing toward Jinxia Cave, could not possibly be unaware of Hu Wang's thoughts; Duan Fengyun had already decided that once he returned, he would get rid of this guy.

This guy Hu Wang had too much of a rebellious streak and was not suitable to be kept by his side.

As for the matter of going to Yuding Zhenren's Cave Abode, Duan Fengyun was not worried in the slightest.

After Yuding Zhenren told Yang Jian to endure humiliation and bear heavy burdens, Yang Jian basically did not come to Jinxia Cave much.

This was all to leave an image for the Three Realms of him, Yang Jian, betraying his master and destroying his sect; therefore, for the sake of the Three Realms and the New Heavenly Law, Yang Jian had indeed sacrificed a lot.

Following the direction pointed out by Lang Wang, Duan Fengyun finally arrived at a secluded Cave Abode.

This Cave Abode of Yuding Zhenren was truly hard to find; in the middle of a canyon, who would have thought there was an Immortal's Cave Abode inside?

Looking at the three characters "Jinxia Cave" above his head, Duan Fengyun laughed and said:

"Jinxia Cave, I have finally found you."

As for befriending Yuding Zhenren, Duan Fengyun had his own methods.

Moreover, he had so much fine wine in his Void; thinking about it, Yuding Zhenren, as a lover of wine, would definitely take the bait.

Duan Fengyun spoke up:

"Yuding Zhenren, may I ask if Yuding Zhenren is here?"

Hearing Duan Fengyun's shouting, Yuding Zhenren, who had originally been practicing calligraphy in the Cave Abode, threw his brush aside and said:

"Which blind person is this, running here to yell and scream, affecting my calligraphy practice?"

Yuding Zhenren tidied up his appearance, walked outside the Cave Abode with the demeanor of an Immortal, looked at Duan Fengyun before him, and asked:

"Where did you come from, little child, and what are you doing here?"

Looking at Yuding Zhenren in his green robes and sensing the faint aura on him, Duan Fengyun muttered to himself:

"It really is as they say; this Yuding Zhenren is likely at most at the cultivation level of an Immortal."

Duan Fengyun said with a humble expression:

"You must be Yuding Zhenren.

My name is Guyue, and I have come to find you, Immortal, to drink." Yuding Zhenren said with an expression of disbelief:

"Guyue?

You came to find me to drink?

But I don't know you at all."

Duan Fengyun laughed:

"But I know you, Immortal.

Immortal, look at what I have in my hand?"

Duan Fengyun took the red wine he had prepared long ago from his waist; Duan Fengyun believed that this wine would definitely conquer Yuding Zhenren's craving for alcohol.

Looking at the crystal-clear wine bottle in Duan Fengyun's hand and the red-as-blood wine inside, Yuding Zhenren took the red wine from Duan Fengyun's hand with great interest.

Yuding Zhenren opened the bottle and took a sniff; immediately, the aroma of wine and fruit rushed to Yuding Zhenren's head.

Yuding Zhenren felt as if he were about to be lost in this fragrance; the last time he had such a feeling was at the great banquet of Yuanshi Tianzun.

Yuding Zhenren covered the bottle, tucked it into his robes, and said cautiously:

"Little Guyue, how much more of this wine do you have?"

Duan Fengyun said mysteriously:

"That depends on whether you, Zhenren, are willing to be friends with me.

I am quite generous with friends; I share good things with friends."

Hearing Duan Fengyun's words, Yuding Zhenren immediately put away his demeanor of an expert beyond the world and said:

"Oh my, we are all friends, all friends.

Fellow Daoist Guyue, please come inside, please come inside."

Under the temptation of fine wine, Yuding Zhenren successfully took the bait and took the initiative to invite Duan Fengyun into the Cave Abode.

Arriving at Yuding Zhenren's Cave Abode, Duan Fengyun had originally thought that for a grown man, even if he were an Immortal, his Cave Abode should be dirty and messy.

But upon seeing Yuding Zhenren's Cave Abode, Duan Fengyun realized he was wrong.

Yuding Zhenren's entire Cave Abode was kept in perfect order; if he didn't know Yuding Zhenren's character, Duan Fengyun would have suspected that Yuding Zhenren was hiding a beauty in his golden house.

Seeing the look in Duan Fengyun's eyes, Yuding Zhenren was extremely proud, because every time someone came here, they would be stunned by the cleanliness of his place.

Yuding Zhenren walked to a table, took out many treasured snacks, pointed to a stool, and said:

"Fellow Daoist Guyue, please sit!

My humble abode is simple, and I have nothing to entertain a fellow Immortal with; I hope you will not mind."

After Duan Fengyun sat down, he looked at the pile of unknown food in front of him and asked:

"Zhenren, forgive my lack of insight, may I ask what these foods of yours are, Immortal?"

Facing Duan Fengyun's confusion, Yuding Zhenren laughed heartily and said:

"Since you, fellow Daoist, do not know, then I shall introduce them to you.

This is a thousand-year-old python spirit from the bottom of the West Lake, this is a camel hump from Lion Camel Ridge, this is the beef shank of a Heaven-Smiting Savage Bull, this is a bear paw from Black Bear Ridge, and this is..."

"These were all brought to me as offerings by my good disciple, Erlang Shen Yang Jian, after he slew demons and monsters."

"I usually cannot bear to eat them; I only bring them out to entertain friends when they come to visit."

"Fellow Daoist Guyue, come quickly and have a taste; these are all rare and precious treasures of heaven and earth."

When Yuding Zhenren spoke of his disciple Yang Jian, his eyes were shining; this disciple had brought him great honor, allowing Yuding Zhenren to hold his head high in front of his fellow disciples.

Originally, he had another disciple who could have brought him honor, but he dared not acknowledge him; that fellow was a pure troublemaker, and he had deliberately hidden his identity back then to avoid trouble.

Now that Sun Wukong has become a Buddha, it is even harder for him, as the master, to acknowledge him.

If it were Sun Wukong, what would he think if he knew that Yuding Zhenren had forbidden him from revealing his identity back then just to avoid trouble?

Since that was the case, Yuding Zhenren did not intend to acknowledge Sun Wukong, and this matter regarding Sun Wukong had always been a pain in Yuding Zhenren's heart.

Perhaps Yuding Zhenren would never have the chance to acknowledge Sun Wukong again.

This master and disciple would just continue to miss each other like this forever.
