Chapter 64: All Sects Gather at Baiyun Guan! Wang Ye of Wudang
There is a reason why Na Ruhu and Ding Daoan can be good friends.
The two men's personalities are somewhat similar.
"You know me; I never lie."
Na Ruhu stared straight at Ding Daoan.
"It is precisely because I know you won't lie that I have to try."
Ding Daoan spoke again.
"Mm, this time you all went too far with your affairs; I will not intervene."
Na Ruhu nodded.
"At the very least, there are no regrets; this time, I am convinced."
Ding Daoan naturally understood what Na Ruhu meant.
Although they are good friends, Na Ruhu's personality is just like this; that he could come to see him once was already enough to surprise him.
"The Company is still discussing the results of how to handle you, and I will not intervene in that either."
"Understood!"
Na Ruhu nodded again, turned around, and walked out.
Outside, Zhao Zong and two Regional Persons-in-Charge were all there.
"Finished talking?"
Watching Na Ruhu walk out, Zhao Zong pushed up his glasses and asked.
"Mm, thank you for this time."
Na Ruhu nodded.
"No need for thanks, it was just seeing a person."
Zhao Zong shook his head, then turned and walked toward the elevator with Na Ruhu.
"About Ding Daoan's matter..."
"I will not ask about it."
Na Ruhu shook his head.
Zhao Zong had not finished speaking, but hearing Na Ruhu say this, he nodded again and did not continue.
"Old Dou, have you met that person from Baiyun Guan?"
Xu Si turned his head to look at the sparse-haired Dou Le and asked curiously.
"No, I went too late; by the time we arrived at the Lu family's place, that person had already left."
Dou Le's expression was serious.
He glanced at the hospital room where Ding Daoan was being detained.
"That is truly a pity; I was quite curious."
Xu Si took out a cigarette, handed one to Dou Le, and then lit one for himself.
"Don't talk about you; the others are all quite curious, but with such a big incident this time, the Company hasn't made any moves, so you know what the result is.
So, Xiao Si, put away your curiosity; you two brothers just took over not long ago, so it's better to be stable."
"Rest assured, rest assured, I know, but it's not that the Company hasn't made any moves; now people from every region have mobilized, and it looks like they won't stop until they deal a certain blow to the All-Nature."
Xu Si's expression turned grave upon hearing this.
"That is certain; for these guys to dare to act like this in this era, it would be a huge problem if the Company didn't handle it."
After Dou Le finished speaking, he threw the cigarette on the ground and stepped on it to extinguish it.
"I should head back too; I need to keep an eye on things over there."
Dou Le keeps a very tight watch on the Temporary Workers under his command.
If it weren't for the fact that Na Ruhu wanted to come over this time, he wouldn't have come either.
"Mm, I should head back too."
Xu Si nodded and left side-by-side with Dou Le.
……
Longhu Mountain, Tianshi Mansion.
Tian Jinzhong looked at the phone handed over by Lao Tianshi, his expression very complex.
"This murderous nature is even greater than yours was back then, Senior Brother."
Tian Jinzhong sighed with emotion.
"Nonsense, I was always kind to others back then."
Lao Tianshi's face stiffened upon hearing this, and he said.
Tian Jinzhong glanced at Lao Tianshi upon hearing this and did not speak.
It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say they grew up together; who was he putting on an act for in front of him?
Of course, Tian Jinzhong did not dwell on this issue.
"When this child was at Longhu Mountain back then, I really couldn't tell."
Hearing his Junior Brother say this, Lao Tianshi stroked his beard, his eyebrows twitching.
"You couldn't tell because you were right; this matter wasn't done by him at all."
"Ah?"
Tian Jinzhong was just sighing, but upon hearing Lao Tianshi say this, his eyes widened immediately.
"What are you surprised about? He wasn't the one who did it, but I reckon it has something to do with him; I suspect those two Snake Immortals were the ones who did it."
Lao Tianshi calculated the information he had received and spoke his guess.
"Then why should it be attributed to him?"
"Because it's better if it's attributed to him. Let's put it this way: if word got out that the two Snake Immortals were the ones who acted, the situation would likely be even more serious than the All-Nature School attack on Baiyun Guan."
Tian Jinzhong was somewhat puzzled.
Lao Tianshi sighed and did not offer much of an explanation.
"However, looking at the relationship between Lin Xuan and the two Snake Immortals, it is estimated that the action was taken with Lin Xuan's permission."
"If that's the case, then that's fine."
Tian Jinzhong nodded upon hearing this.
"Fine? If he had done it himself, it would likely have been even easier."
Lao Tianshi's understanding of Lin Xuan's strength was far greater than Tian Jinzhong's.
Putting himself in that position, he could easily do such a thing, so Lin Xuan could too, not to mention that he would be in the right.
But he probably couldn't do such a thing now.
It would have been fine in the past.
Lao Tianshi thought, his mind wandering slightly.
"Then what should we do on our side?"
Tian Jinzhong asked.
"What do you mean what should we do? The Company isn't bothering with it, so naturally, we don't need to worry either, but we should send someone over."
"It is indeed necessary to go; after all, as fellow members of the Dao Sect, with such a major event occurring, it is still necessary to go."
"Then let Lingyu go; he hasn't had the heart for cultivation lately anyway."
Lao Tianshi nodded upon hearing this, thought for a moment, and said.
"Brother, are you planning to teach Lingyu the Lightning Method?"
"Yes, after getting to know that child from Baiyun Guan this time, Lingyu's temperament has become much more steady, and it is time for him to master some of this Lightning Method. We shall wait until he returns from Baiyun Guan this time."
Tian Jinzhong naturally had no objections upon hearing this.
"In addition, I plan to find another little one to take care of you next."
The young Daoist who had been taking care of Tian Jinzhong could not delay his cultivation, and since Tian Jinzhong had strongly requested it, Lao Tianshi naturally agreed.
Therefore, Lao Tianshi intended to find someone else to take care of Tian Jinzhong.
Tian Jinzhong nodded upon hearing this.
……
For the next week or so, Baiyun Guan was at its liveliest in nearly twenty years.
Various sects and factions, and even some who were not part of the Dao Sect and didn't even know what had happened, came to join in the excitement after noticing many sects heading to Baiyun Guan.
To put it mildly, nearly half of the righteous forces in the Outsider world had arrived.
Even Fang Dongtian had to come out to receive several people of the same generation.
However, Lin Xuan did not appear, and even the two snakes did not show themselves.
"Wang Ye of Wudang, pays respects to the senior."
A young Daoist who looked somewhat lazy stood beside the Wudang Grandmaster Zhou Meng and bowed to Fang Dongtian.
Zhou Meng was two years older than Fang Dongtian, also over a hundred years old, but his spirit and energy were quite remarkable.
"Alright, no need for formalities. Zhou Meng, it's rare to see you bring a junior out. Could it be your closing disciple?"
Fang Dongtian looked Wang Ye over, his expression somewhat puzzled.
"Senior, my master is Daoist Yunlong!"
Wang Ye replied upon hearing this, and Zhou Meng twitched the corner of his mouth.
"He has some ties to Wudang; he officially joined Wudang Mountain after graduating from university."
Zhou Meng waved his hand and didn't say much more.
"I see. Come, let's go inside and sit."
Fang Dongtian invited.
"Yo, isn't this Daoist Zhou? What a rare guest."
Just as they walked into a side hall, a loud voice rang out.
Zhou Meng was taken aback, looking at Lv Ci who had spoken, feeling somewhat surprised.
"You fellow came too?"
"Look at what you're saying; if you can come, of course I can come too."
This fellow Lv Ci, even in normal conversation, sounded like he wanted to go up and have a fight.
Zhou Meng, knowing Lv Ci's situation, didn't pay him any mind, and after cupping his hands to Lu Jin, he sat down.
Wang Ye looked somewhat bored as he stood behind Zhou Meng, head lowered and lost in thought.
