Chapter 237 Who is so unrestrained? It is your Grandpa Ding!
Outside the Wanxiangmen outpost, the bald old Taoist priest sat on the street in front of a tea stall, watching the crowds coming and going through the Wanxiangmen gate, lost in thought.
Just now, he arrived at the Wanxiang Sect's outpost and tried to inquire about the sect leader, Li Baozheng's whereabouts.
But the gatekeeper told him that the sect leader had gone out on business a few days ago and had not returned.
Although the bald old Taoist priest was somewhat skeptical, after asking several other people and receiving the same answer, he had no choice but to wait at the door and keep watch.
He did not choose to unseal his cultivation and forcefully interrogate him, because if Li Baozheng got wind of the situation and dared not return, things would become even more troublesome.
Although he had sealed his cultivation, the bald old Taoist could still make a rough judgment about Li Baozheng based on his appearance and physique as long as he saw him.
This is his unique method of observing people, unrelated to the art of cause and effect, which is one of the reasons why the Heavenly Wrath Immortal was at ease letting him descend to the mortal realm.
"No matter what, as the sect leader, he should come back eventually."
"I refuse to believe I won't be able to wait for you here."
"You naughty boy, don't let me catch you, I'm already holding back a lot of anger."
"Oh dear, and this Yin-Yang Palace too. Once they make the statues of the gods, they'll take over this entire prefecture. Consider it my compensation, hehehehe..."
The bald old Taoist priest looked at the Wanxiang Sect's outpost in front of him, a strange smile spreading across his face.
Meanwhile, in a small county town outside Baihe City.
Ding Yi had already torn off the human skin mask, revealing his original appearance, and was swaggering down the street.
Soon, he arrived at a restaurant.
After looking up at the plaque above and confirming that he hadn't come to the wrong place, Ding Yi took out the Flowing Sand Map and glanced at it before following the crowd inside.
On the second floor of the restaurant, Ding Yi also saw the person he was looking for.
Today, Li Wanyun was wearing a loose-fitting outfit that perfectly concealed her impressive figure. She also wore some makeup, which made her originally delicate face look rather ordinary.
"I'm here. When do we leave?"
Ding Yi plopped down opposite Li Wanyun and slowly began to speak.
"I was saying, when you're out and about, why don't you ever try to hide your true self?"
Li Wanyun sipped her steaming cup of premium Daughter's Red wine, looked at Ding Yi with some curiosity, and asked him a question.
In her memory, Ding Yi was an extremely cautious person, but she never expected that he would dare to appear in his original form today.
"Oh?"
Ding Yi raised an eyebrow.
"We're going to do something big this time. If we get recognized, we're finished."
"Don't be fooled by the fact that things are relatively normal in Qingzhou. The other states are like hell on earth."
Li Wanyun glanced at Ding Yi, then continued:
"I'll do your makeup later, just to be on the safe side."
Upon hearing this, Ding Yi immediately smiled and said:
"Elder Li is indeed the most reliable person. Very well, then we'll trouble Elder Li for the time being. By the way, is it just the two of us this time?"
Upon hearing this, Li Wanyun shook her head.
"The others are already on their way; we can't go together."
"Hurry up and eat something. If you die this time, you won't be able to eat such delicious food anymore."
After Li Wanyun finished speaking, she chuckled at Ding Yi, then casually picked up the wine pot and poured him a full cup.
"Makes sense."
Upon hearing this, Ding Yi picked up his chopsticks and began to eat, then asked:
"Tell me the specifics."
"It's not convenient here, let's talk about it on the way."
Li Wanyun shook her head, then suddenly asked:
"Tell me, do you think we warriors have no chance of ever rising to prominence?"
Ding Yi's hand holding the chopsticks paused for a moment, then he asked:
"Elder Li, what makes you say that?"
A trace of sorrow suddenly appeared in Li Wanyun's eyes, and she murmured:
“Although we have been trying our best to disrupt the situation in each state, these states will eventually be controlled by a divine palace.”
"By then, warriors will have no place to use their skills. These worshippers only need ordinary people and animals, and warriors will be wiped out."
Upon hearing this, Ding Yi frowned and subconsciously asked:
"Isn't there still Zhongzhou?"
"Zhongzhou? Heh, it's already too busy to take care of itself. The factional struggles within the royal family are getting more and more serious. Even now, they're still eyeing that position."
Li Wanyun shook her head.
"Elder Li seems to know a lot about the Central Plains royal family."
Ding Yi grinned.
“I come from Zhongzhou, so I naturally know some things.”
Li Wanyun rolled her eyes at Ding Yi, her expression clearly mocking him for trying to trick her with his limited knowledge.
Upon hearing this, Ding Yi chuckled and looked out at the street beyond the railing.
"The world will eventually return to normal."
Ding Yi said calmly.
"Perhaps. By the way, the Chaotic God Church in Bazhou sent experts to assist us this time, but I heard they have a bad temper. I'm giving you a heads-up."
Li Wanyun suddenly thought of something and continued.
"Master?"
Ding Yi was somewhat surprised.
"I heard it's a master of the Divine Travel Realm, said to be to prevent any accidents from happening."
Li Wanyun shrugged.
"Hmm, I can understand that."
"Alright, it's about time, let's go."
Li Wanyun tossed a few pieces of silver onto the table and then stood up.
Upon seeing this, Ding Yi naturally put down his chopsticks and walked down the restaurant with the woman.
Half an incense stick later, the two fast horses galloped along the official road outside the city, heading south.
Ding Yi followed beside Li Wanyun, listening to the howling wind rushing past his ears, and shouted to her:
"Now you can tell me the plan, right?!"
"It's very simple. The people from Baiyun Temple have already gathered in the state territory. We just need to fan the flames and we can cause chaos!"
Li Wanyun responded.
"Why do we need so many experts for such a trivial matter?"
Ding Yi was puzzled.
"Because a Buddhist disciple from Baiyun Temple is there, we need to impersonate people from Yin Yang Palace to kill him."
Li Wanyun said with a solemn expression.
"Buddha?"
Ding Yi was taken aback, then remembered that the Buddhist disciples of Baiyun Temple, just like the true disciples of Yin Yang Palace, were all highly talented worshippers.
If the true teachings of the Yin-Yang Palace belong to the constitution of Yin and Yang in harmony, then this so-called Buddhist disciple is a guy with the heart of both Buddha and demon. He cultivates Buddhism and Taoism, but harbors a demonic heart. In short, he is very powerful.
"His cultivation level should be at the Lesser Completion of the Divine Palace stage, but it cannot be ruled out that he is protected by a master at the Greater Completion of the Divine Palace stage."
Li Wanyun continued.
"I understand. Just say you were impersonating someone to kill the evil monk."
Upon hearing this, Ding Yi burst into laughter, as if this trip was nothing more than sightseeing.
"Haha, you're quite an interesting person. If it weren't for the chaos in the world, I might really have a good drink with you!"
Li Wanyun chuckled and shook her head.
You will have your chance!
Ding Yi shook his head, flicked his whip, and his horse sped up, kicking up a cloud of dust.
The two figures, galloping on horseback, cast long shadows in the setting sun, reflecting the birds returning home in the sky, creating a somewhat desolate scene.
Amidst the chaotic and fleeting light of the setting sun, where are the heroes who once rode forth, whipping their horses into battle?
At this moment, Ding Yi, in a state of spiritual travel, rode across the world and experienced a magical feeling he had never felt before.
Between heaven and earth, it seemed as if an invisible shackle was slowly being opened. He felt the joyful cheers of the soul within his Niwan Palace and felt the ever-increasing vitality of his body's essence.
Just then, Ding Yi suddenly realized that the realm of spiritual travel is not only about the soul leaving the body, but also about breaking free from the shackles of heaven and earth and returning to a state of freedom and etherealness!
This time, he was determined to act recklessly, follow his heart, and wreak havoc on the world, until the sun and moon were extinguished!
"You bastards from Baiyun Temple, your Grandpa Ding is here!!"
A sinister smile crept across Ding Yi's face.
