“It’s alright.”

Xu Yang said, “Boys will fall, it doesn’t matter. Pick him up.”

The couple could only follow Xu Yang’s advice and took their child out of the “stroller.”

Love was written all over their faces.

The woman held onto the child, unwilling to let go.

Xu Yang came up behind her and said, “Let go, go ahead and call him to you.” The woman finally let go, walked in front of her child, and opened her arms, saying, “Come, Mingming, come to mommy.”

Perhaps because he had fallen too many times before, the child cried and refused to move forward.

As for his intelligence, it was not an issue. Xu Yang shouted, “Go ahead, don’t be afraid!”

At his command, the boy seemed to be frightened, and involuntarily took a step forward…

Xu Yang’s spiritual power was focused on the child’s ankles.

He “saw” that the “tripwire” around the child’s ankles began to tighten as he took another step, causing him to trip and fall involuntarily!

“Supreme Ruler of Destiny, Lord Regeneration, save from disasters, eradicate evil and monsters, cut!”

In that instant, Xu Yang seized the opportunity and swiftly took action!

He recited an incantation, and the peachwood sword in his hand transformed into a blur, creating a sonic boom as it slashed down between the child’s legs, cutting the “tripwire.”

The invisible “tripwire” immediately snapped, and under the infusion of Xu Yang’s spiritual power, it slowly dissipated into nothingness.

The child’s mother quickly caught her falling son. She did not understand the significance of Xu Yang’s sword just now, and with tears in her eyes, she choked up, “Master, maybe we should just forget about it. We have tried everything we could think of and have resigned ourselves to our fate.”

She said they “had resigned to their fate.”

But the woman’s tone was full of despair and loss.

Xu Yang put away his peachwood sword and smiled, “Auntie, let your child try walking again now.”

“Huh?”

The woman looked up at Xu Yang, her eyes full of confusion.

Hadn’t he just fallen again?

The middle-aged man had witnessed Xu Yang’s skills at their ancestral tomb and scolded his wife for not letting go of the child, “Just do what Master Xu tells you, why do you have so many questions?”

The couple let go of their child’s hands and coaxed him to take another step forward.

At first, the child was timid but the father said, “Come to daddy, if you can walk to daddy, daddy will buy you the complete set of Ultraman sticker albums!”

As expected…

Believe in the light!

The boy’s eyes lit up.

He tentatively took his first step.

He gently took the first step, and this time… he was stunned, and slowly looked down at his feet.

He couldn’t speak, but he wasn’t stupid. His intelligence was on par with his peers.

Before this, every time he tried to walk, he felt something tugging at his feet, but this time was different…

He tried to take another step.

The tugging sensation was gone, making him feel incredibly light and free.

The couple stared in amazement.

They watched with joy as their child took first one step, then another, tears filling their eyes. Their bodies trembled with excitement and happiness, but they didn’t dare to speak out for fear of scaring their child, and could only say tearfully, “Mingming… one more step!”

The child took a third and a fourth step.

He walked faster and faster, finally tumbling into his parents’ embrace… the couple finally let out all their pent-up emotions, bursting into tears.

“My child…”

“You can finally walk, why did it take you so long!”

Xu Yang calmly returned to his chair, picked up the thermos Yue Yuluo had brought him. Inside was the eight treasures tea Liu Shishi had brewed especially for him.

He took a small sip.

hetui!

Spitting out the tea leaves that had accidentally entered his mouth, Xu Yang looked at “Xiao Cao” and smiled, “Xiao Cao, what kind of work do you do?”

I m a plasterer (scraping the wall), mainly working on high-rise exteriors.”

“Is there a difference between interior and exterior work?”

Xu Yang had never been involved in this line of work and was not very familiar with it.

Xiao Cao explained, “Working indoors is more comfortable because it’s not exposed to wind and sun, but the pay is lower compared to outdoor jobs. There is also a difference between working on the ground level and high-rise projects. We earn 300 dollars a day for working on scaffolding at the ground level, while working on high-rises using sliding platforms pays 350.”

More money usually means more hardships, and working on high-rises is inherently risky.

Seeing his aunt and uncle holding their child and weeping, Xiao Cao wanted to approach but Xu Yang stopped him and said, “Don’t disturb them. Let them vent their feelings. They must have been under a lot of pressure these past few years.”

“Master Xu, you truly are a supreme person!”

Xiao Cao’s admiration for Xu Yang grew even stronger. He glanced around and quietly asked in a low voice, “Master Xu, I have a friend whose… urn… organ is not very functional… Do you have any way to help him?”

Usually, when someone says “a friend,” they actually mean themselves.

Xu Yang looked at Xiao Cao up and down, then shook his head, “This is a physiological issue, which I cannot help with. I am a Daoist and specialize in exorcising ghosts and warding off evil.”

He took out a “Diamond Talisman” and handed it to Xiao Cao, saying, “We are considered fated, so I give you this talisman. When you go home, sew it into a piece of red cloth, and pin it inside your clothes when you go out. This might help you avoid bloodshed and disaster.”

It took a while for the couple to let out all their emotions.

The woman wanted to kowtow on the spot to show her gratitude, but Xu Yang waved his hand from a distance, and an invisible gentle force permeated out, lifting the woman up. He laughed and said, “It’s just a small effort, no need for such a big ceremony.”

The man took Xiao Cao’s car key and fetched a small handbag from the car.

The handbag was full of money, probably about a few hundred thousand dollars.

Xu Yang said, “I told you, it was just a little effort; there’s no need for so much money.”

However, the man insisted, “Master Xu, please accept this as a token of our appreciation… Without you, this money would have been swindled away by that scammer Lin.”

Through questioning, Xu Yang learned that the money had been recovered with the help of the police.

It was quite ridiculous.

In just a few months, Lin had scammed and amassed a fortune, especially in the past month with his “ghost weddings” scheme, swindling almost 2 million dollars.

And this money…

Almost all of it had been recovered!

That is to say, other than daily expenses, Lin didn’t actually spend any of this money.

According to the results of the police interrogations, Lin was worried that if he spent too lavishly, it would draw the attention of the police. Their gang’s idea was to scam a few more families in Wu City, raise 3 million dollars, and then divide the money among themselves, flee far away, and continue their schemes elsewhere.

Little did they expect that before achieving their small goal, they would be caught!

Since things had come this far, Xu Yang could only symbolically take 20,000 dollars from the handbag and said, “I’ll take this 20,000. You take the rest… In your village or nearby villages, if any family is in difficulty or if their children need to see a doctor, give the money to them.”

The middle-aged man then asked about his son’s situation.

Xu Yang explained the “ankle rope” burial custom, saying, “In the Lu Province area, besides the custom of tying ankle ropes, they also have a custom of ‘cutting’ ankle ropes… Usually, when a child learns to walk, family members use a kitchen knife to make a few cuts between their footsteps.”

“Master Xu, if the child doesn’t have an ankle rope tied, why do they need to cut it?”

Xiao Cao chimed in at the right moment.

Xu Yang laughed and said, “In the cycle of life and death, what if someone is reincarnated with an ankle rope?”

The woman looked puzzled, “Back then, we were doing business in Jinan City, Lu Province, and our child was born there… Does this have anything to do with his inability to walk?”

“Master, our child also can’t speak yet, what’s the situation with that?”

The couple asked again.

Xu Yang said, “The ankle rope is a vile object. Although it’s tied to the foot, it’s inevitable that it will have some impact. Later, I’ll draw a Daoist talisman for you to take back and dissolve it in water for your child to drink. After some time, they will naturally be able to speak. ”

The couple thanked him profusely before they finally left.

After the three left, the shop quieted down. Since there was no business, Xu Yang took Yue Yuluo upstairs and said, “Madam, let’s go and cultivate Yin and Yang together and see if your cultivation has improved.”

The duo entered a new environment Yue Yuluo had set, inside a car.

Her face blushing, she said, “My Lord, I originally wanted to create the illusion of a yacht… ”

“It doesn’t matter.”

Xu Yang licked his lips and laughed, “Cultivating in the car will do.”

At the same time,

Min Province.

Min River.

In the depths of the vast Min River, amid the clouds and fog, a small island floated at the center of the river.

On the small island, there was a towering mountain peak, and hidden within it were palaces!

This was Lu Shan and the dwelling place of the Lu Shan Sect!

Legend has it that Lu Shan is concealed within the Min River and ordinary people are incapable of perceiving it. The saying was not wrong, at least for now when looking from the outside, only a layer of fog could be seen, and nothing of Lu Shan could be observed by those who had not cultivated.

At this moment, within the Lu Shan Sect, six people sat in a grand hall.

These six were all clad in Daoist robes, with some of them being elderly, some middle-aged, and a female Daoist.

They had one thing in common – the aura emanating from them was strong and mysterious; they were all in the Divine Transcendence Realm!

Six powerful practitioners of the Divine Transcendence Realm!

This represented the foundation of the Lu Shan Sect in the human world. Not to mention, a sect with such an ancient heritage had the existence of “cave heavens” and “blessed lands”, where more powerful practitioners resided!

“Fellow Daoists,”

“You must already know about Xu Yang.”

“Having attained the Daoist realm with a thunderbolt and having such impressive achievements in Daoist talismans, this young man has limitless potential and a promising future. I believe we should eliminate him as soon as possible, seize back the Jingming Dharma seal, and merge it with the Master Dharma seal. Only then can our Lu Shan Sect truly claim to be orthodox and inherit the position of Heavenly Master Xu!”

The female Daoist spoke.

A middle-aged Daoist frowned, “But Xu Yang is now under the protection of the Spirits Management Bureau. With the arrogant and overbearing Wang Hou, if our side takes action, I’m afraid he would really flatten Lu Shan!”

However, the female Daoist laughed, “Why would we need to do it ourselves?”

“Didn’t Wang Hou say? Just don’t bully with a position of power!”

“Xu Yang is now in the Entering Dao Realm. If we were to send three to five others in the same realm against him, it wouldn’t be considered as bullying, right?”

Upon hearing this, everyone’s eyes lit up.

“If that’s the case, is it necessary to send three or five people? Xu Yang is just in the early stages of the Entering Dao Realm. We only need to send one at the peak of the realm to deal with him…”

“To be on the safe side, let’s send three people and an additional Golden Armor Guardian.”

Soon, three Daoist practitioners in the Entering Dao Realm – two in the late stage and one in the peak stage – were summoned into the hall. The female Daoist gave orders, “Pack up, buy your plane tickets, and fly to Wu City early tomorrow morning.”

“Remember!”

“If possible, confront him face to face and directly challenge Xu Yang. By doing so, not only can you prove who is stronger but also decide life and death. In this way, even if you kill Xu Yang, Wang Hou cannot find any fault!”
