Chapter 148 The Red Robe Path

    "It's no wonder, I feel that Yang Gan is afraid of Shi Yu."

    The leader not only has no pressure on her but is also very polite.

    All because, the Shi family is quite useful to the guard master.

    At that time, Fan Xing was worried about Shi Qing's accident, but it was indeed overthinking.

    If she hadn't let Shi Qing out, she would have been spared.

    However, that is a matter of later times.

    Also, does the guard master really know if the souls of Xu Lan and others have fallen into the hands of the Shi family?

    It's probably not.

    They simply don't know that earlier Shi Yu directly tried to kill me.

    In my thoughts, I didn't speak much.

    The leader diverted the topic again, saying that since there was no problem, they would set off.

    As I left the guard master's hall, I didn't see anyone of Shi Yu.

    To go to the basement and drive, Yang Gan took on the role of the driver.

    The night was dark, and there was mist flowing on the road.

    I kept looking out the window, and my mood became much more calm.

    The headless woman is a lifesaver.

    Moreover, I still have one finger left unused on my body, as well as the terracotta figure obtained from the Luo Pot.

    Jin Yang's waters are deep, but I've also stepped on a few hidden stones, which allow me to stand firmly.

    Even the supervisory Taoist, in some way, was duped by me, and I had to deal with the old man in suits.

    Sun Zhuo?

    Later on, it's likely that I'll meet Sun Zhuo face-to-face.

    He probably never expected to see me in such a situation.

    At around 4:30 in the morning, Yang Gan's car entered a mountainous city.

    Once on the winding mountain road, when we stopped next, there was a Taoist temple in sight!

    The observation wall and eaves are extremely retro, and there is also a parking lot outside the Taoist temple.

    After Yang Gan parked the car, it was the leader who walked at the front, and I was half a step behind Yang Gan.

    We walked straight to the gate of the Taoist temple, and before we could approach to knock, the heavy creaking sound as the door opened slowly.

    Standing in front of the door, there was an old Taoist in a blue robe.

    The ones who pushed the door open were several green-robed Taoists.

    I recognized the blue-robed old Taoist at a glance; it was none other than Zhang Xu who had been outside the Qi Village earlier.

    Before that, not only did he want to take away Fan Xing but also tried to harm me.

    At the moment, Zhang Xu's eyes were extremely cold and fierce, sweeping over the three of us.

    The other green-robed Taoists all looked serious.

    "Leader of the guard, no one has informed you, but you directly enter my Taoist temple's gate, what business do you have?"

    Zhang Xu's nose is naturally large, with a serious face, and with this demeanor and tone, he has perfectly displayed his bad temper.

    "Don't you know what I'm here for?" The leader narrowed his eyes slightly and replied in a deep voice, "It seems that Uncle Huang hasn't arrived yet."

    Zhang Xu's eyebrows wrinkled, and he suddenly said, "Do you know that people from the city temple are coming?"

    "I invited them, how can I not know? It seems that you don't know what's going to happen, which is understandable, just a green-robed Taoist." The leader was neither angry nor disturbed, but his words were quite harsh.

    Zhang Xu did not get angry; he still wore a stern expression. He looked at me for a moment longer before suddenly saying, "Since there's something going on with the guard master, then please go in."

    As he spoke, Zhang Xu stepped aside, creating a path for us.

    The leader moved forward, but Yang Gan shot a disapproving look at Zhang Xu.

    I was about to follow behind, but as I passed by Zhang Xu, he suddenly reached out and grabbed me on the shoulder!

    Suddenly, my face changed!

    This old Taoist, it's not proper at all. He's quiet and directly tries to grab me without a word!

    The leader's face fell, and he suddenly opened his mouth, only to hear a soft pop.

    A silver arc flashes straight, aiming at Zhang Xu's forehead!

    Zhang Xu's face changes color again, and he suddenly tilts backward, dodging the silver arc.

    He forcefully stepped on the ground with both feet, sliding backward, and stepping out several meters away!

    As the sound of tinkling rings echoed, several silver needles appeared on the ground where he had stood before!

    The other green-robed Taoists were as if facing a major enemy, scattering instantly and preparing to surround us.

    The next second, on the other side of the Taoist temple, the training ground was surrounded by rapidly opening and closing doors.

    Within a few breaths, at least a dozen Taoists had surrounded our path!

    Zhang Xu's face was extremely unpleasant. He lifted his right arm, and with his left hand, he picked up a silver needle and threw it away.

    My pupils contracted slightly.

    I haven't seen the leader's technique in action yet, so I don't know his skills.

    I didn't expect that his methods were exactly the same as that of Shu PoPo?

    Moreover, his reaction speed and strength are much stronger than Shu PoPo's.

    At the time outside Qi Village, Yang Gan also had Shu PoPo with him, and they didn't dare to make a move.

    Now, the leader directly injured Zhang Xu's arm.

    "The guard master and the city god have business to discuss with the supervisor, which is a serious matter. Luo Xian, a newcomer to Jin Yang, dared to harm ordinary people and take lives, and later even collaborated with those who raise ghosts. As the line of supervisors, I cannot sit idly by and ignore it!"

    "Guard master, are you certain that you want to turn against us, the supervisors, because of this matter?"

    Zhang Xu's voice was as hard and cold as ice.

    The Taoists surrounding us all looked solemn, their hands resting at their waists, ready to act at any moment.

    I didn't show any emotion, and I didn't even try to explain anything.

    Since the leader dared to bring me, he must be able to protect me.

    I just cast a glance at the other Taoists, and I didn't see anyone of Sun Zhuo's.

    The leader's thick beard quivered, and he laughed mockingly, "If you want to grab Luo Xian, that would mean challenging our Huang Si. I won't argue with you."

    "If that's the case, let's not talk about today's business."

    The leader waved his hand and let out another cold laugh.

    He turned around, nodded to me, and was about to leave.

    I slightly frowned and didn't say much. I took a step to leave.

    Zhang Xu's expression shifted from dark to bright once again.

    But at this moment, a figure directly jumped out from among the ones surrounding us.

    His steps were very fast, and he was as light as a swallow. He had taken just a few steps to reach the leader's back and shouted in a low voice, "Leader, please wait."

    He was also a green-robed Taoist, but the color of his robe was slightly darker than Zhang Xu's.

    He casually waved his staff and hung it on his elbow, with a thin and round face that looked extremely straight.

    "Long elder Han, please enter the back hall for detailed discussion."

    "Zhang Xu, Luo Xian hasn't entered the ghost cage yet. The city god's temple has guaranteed his safety, and besides, as Elder Han has said, the supervisor has also been lacking in effort. We cannot bring up the other matters of Luo Xian again." The green-robed Taoist said solemnly again.

    He looked at the other Taoists surrounding us and said, "Dispense."

    Instantly, those Taoists quickly left.

    Only Zhang Xu and the few Taoists who had opened the door remained motionless in place.

    Zhang Xu's face looked exceptionally stern.

    The green-robed Taoist made a gesture of invitation, and the leader, with no change in expression, continued to walk forward.

    I walked side by side with Yang Gan.

    Soon, we passed through the training ground, passing by three large copper cauldrons burning incense, and stopped in front of a large hall.

    Inside the hall, there were statues of the Three Pure Ones.

    Under the statues, there was a square table, with a sage-like old man in front of the statue, facing the direction of the main statue.

    The robe he wore was scarlet, which was very eye-catching.

    He held a whisk in his left hand, slung across his chest, and his right hand was placed flat on his right knee, sitting with the utmost propriety.

    On the other side, there was Uncle Huang.

    Uncle Huang nodded to me and smiled warmly.
