Chapter 63 Obstacles in Shencheng
"I did not expect that Xue Wuyi, whom the Cultivators of Great Chen have been searching for everywhere, is actually the Sect Hierarch of the White Lotus Sect, a veritable White Lotus blossoming in the Sea of Blood. Have you come to kill me?" Xu Jianglin recognized the identity of the person before him and was curious about his purpose for coming.
"It's not yet time for our final battle, and such fine material as yourself should not be wasted!" Xue Wuyi sized up Xu Jianglin with a peculiar look, as if appraising a piece of clothing or a weapon.
"Whose deer will fall is yet to be determined, aren't you a bit too confident!"
"Haha, we shall see the true mettle under our hands in the future. I've enjoyed a good show today and am quite satisfied. Haha!" With a loud laugh, Xue Wuyi transformed into a shadow of blood, instantly disappearing into the horizon. Continue your adventure with empire
Just as Xu Jianglin was furrowing his brow, Lu Zhang in Yonzhou was also frowning.
"Are you saying that an unusual Array has appeared in front of Shencheng?" he asked, somewhat surprised.
"Reporting to my lord, that Array is at the city gate, blocking our attacking route completely," the Scout reported truthfully.
With Shencheng being easy to defend but hard to attack, only the main gate could accommodate a large army. Now that an unusual Array was blocking the way, Lu Zhang questioned his subordinates about what should be done next.
"My lord, do not fear. An unknown small Array, probably set by some Taoist found by the city's defenders, is nothing serious. Since I, Old Taoist, have recently joined, I'll go and investigate the Array myself!" A figure in the crowd stepped forward.
A lean Old Taoist with an otherworldly demeanor, clad in a Taoist Robe and holding a horsetail whisk, commanded admiration from those around him, all praising him silently: what a true Cultivator with genuine Tao!
This Taoist called himself Master Xiaoyao, a wild monk who had recently sworn allegiance to Lu Zhang. He was well-presented and good at marketing himself, quickly making a name for himself among Lu Zhang's followers.
"Since the situation is unclear and we don't know what kind of Array this really is, I fully support the idea of this Taoist going ahead to scout out the Array. I have already placed an enchanted Paper Crane on him, and once he enters the Array, we can spy on the situation through the Paper Crane," Lu Zhang stated.
After Chang Chunzi finished speaking, he had someone bring over a basin of water. He took out a Talisman, chanting softly, and as the Talisman burned itself without flame, its ashes fell into the basin. Suddenly, the ordinary surface of the water displayed an image, showing Master Xiaoyao entering the Array.
Master Xiaoyao, proud and complacent, was originally just a poor man who was not content with his lot. By chance, while farming, he discovered a cave from where he acquired some Cultivation Techniques.
He initially approached cultivation just to try it out, but soon discovered he had a gift for it. The complex jargon of cultivation seemed to have answers ready in his mind.
Once he possessed some skills, he could no longer focus on his cultivation, always aspiring to rise above his station. He left the place of cultivation and ventured into prosperous lands.
Armed with a few Techniques he had learned and adept at reading people, he soon gained a reputation, leading a life as smooth as a fish in water. However, as the sudden changes of the world plunged into chaos, the rich and powerful he relied on either died or scattered.
That's when he resolved to seek refuge with a powerful faction to avoid living in constant uncertainty, eventually choosing the reputable Lu Zhang.
Upon entering Lu Zhang's territory, he found that the living conditions of the locals were much better than in other places—not that it was a time of peace where doors remained unlocked and items unclaimed, but at least people had enough to eat during these war-torn times.
To create a favorable image of a true master, he changed from his usual mercenary self to a semblance of an immortal, winning Lu Zhang's trust.
This man, good in appearance and eloquent, quickly made a name for himself among the Yuzhou Army and gained an audience with Lu Zhang as he had wished.
Everything was going as he planned, but the only thing that displeased him was the obese man beside Lu Zhang, Chang Chunzi. The moment Master Xiaoyao saw Chang Chunzi, he regarded him as the greatest rival of his life.
