To know a word is to works

Things of the past before 1543

    

they mean something to you." Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!He sighed softly."Between the sheets, I rather enjoy seeing you cry, but at other times, you mustn't be...“The Demon Lord’s attendants, those low-ranking, shallow-tempered little demons, disappeared before dawn.” Luohu said faintly: “So to speak, Yin Su Bai is not the main cause of the surge in worldly malice. It is the Southern Demon Emperor who cannot hold back the most. He will never miss this opportunity.”

Yin Su Bai wanted to find the Yu Ling Zong Zhen Ling Fu, also to restrain the demons from following the Southern Demon Emperor into the world.

I understood quite a bit from their conversation. No wonder Jiang Qiyun asked me to help find this talisman, it turns out that Yin Su Bai is not an enemy of the fairy world.

And according to them, the Southern Heaven Demon Emperor they spoke of was not an enemy of the immortal world. At most, when human malice was rampant, he would descend to the mortal realm to cultivate and preach.

"But once demons become too numerous, they will lose control." Ji Du added, "Not all demons have the cultivation to understand right from wrong. Therefore, if the actions of the demon world become too dangerous, the Supreme God of Xuan Qiong will intervene and exert control."

Celestial Emperor Jade Emperor

According to legend, the Jade Emperor holds authority over the Three Pure Ones, weighs the balance of the Three Realms, commands the Six Directions, and governs the Eight Wildernesses and Four Seas.

As for the jurisdiction of his divine office, all realms—of gods, immortals, spirits, demons, and monsters—are under his purview.

"Before, in a certain place in the north, there was a dilapidated temple of plague gods. Demons appeared in the temple, and a disciple of the Shen family personally witnessed it." I frowned and said.

"......It's probably a plague," Luo Hu said indifferently. "When a plague strikes, lives are as insignificant as grass. Relatives turn against each other, neighbors become enemies...Naturally, violent energy gathers."

"What's wrong I looked up at Lord Luohou, trying to confirm if he was really 'revealing heavenly secrets'."

"Don't look at me." He shoved the chessboard. "From the moment you saw demons carrying candles and stealing life force from the Plague God Temple, it meant the plague had already begun to spread."

Ji Dou raised her eyebrows in agreement.

That's why Jiang Qiyun repeatedly stressed before that I shouldn't run around and even had the Shen family go into seclusion for cultivation.

I immediately pushed the door open and told the head steward to notify all the disciples who were out traveling to return to the mountain as quickly as possible.

The head steward was spinning like a top, busy and frantic. After a while, he rushed over to report: "Master, I have informed all the disciples who went out, but..."

But

“Shen Qingrui... she didn't answer the phone.”

Shen Qingrui was sent out by me yesterday to bring back Master Zong Dao, the journey wasn't far.

And I had already told her not to take risks, just to bring the people back. Master Zong's temper is very stubborn and needs someone as willful as Shen Qingrui, a Kun Dao, to pull him back into line.

A day or two, even if he didn't come back, wouldn't he at least answer the phone

"Immediately dispatch several inner disciples by car to find the location of the pearl! Hurry! Take your magical artifacts with you, four people per group." I ordered frowningly.

"Get a helicopter! We need to move fast!" the manager suggested.

The helipad is destroyed, how do we get out And it's freezing in winter, the helicopters are all stored in the hangar.

The headmaster patted his head and immediately sent the inner disciples down to make arrangements.

Inner disciples are mostly from the Shen family clan.

The Tao is very heavily passed down, either through family tradition or master-student lineage. Moreover, the transmission of Daoist practices varies from person to person and not every technique can be indiscriminately spread.

When accepting a disciple, one must also look at whether their eight characters are compatible, whether their mind is upright and pure, whether they have any distractions, and whether they are suitable for practicing the teachings of this school.

If it's not suitable, then even family members shouldn't spread it around indiscriminately.

Among the inner disciples of the Shen family, most practiced their own families' specialties in magic arts, each with their strengths. Some were not suitable for practicing magic arts, so they did some auxiliary work, or even completely unrelated work.

Some of the Shen family disciples who did not practice martial arts also had their own jobs in Sheng City. The steward contacted them all by phone, and some who couldn't return to work were asked to investigate Shen Qingrui's whereabouts.

Soon, the manager compiled some information and gave it to me.

"...She left home that day with two of her disciples, driving the AMG from their house. Tracing her tracks, she did indeed arrive at the suburb in the provincial city you mentioned. Later, there was a toll record at the highway exit on her way back, indicating she returned. Based on the time, she should have been home by now." The manager fidgeted nervously.

"Should we be home by now Then why isn't she answering her phone" I frowned, "Dispatch more disciples to search the area. It's such a big vehicle, ask along the way and check the surveillance footage from the jurisdiction."

The manager agreed, but the more I thought about it, the more uneasy I felt.

"That can't be right, did she run away with that Taoist priest Zong" A more senior member of the Shen family frowned and said.

"Impossible, she's too high-minded to even look at that Master Zong."

"That's hard to say. Master Zong has endured her many times, how many people could stand her bad temper."

They might have been involved for some time, but they dared not report it to the head of the family out of shame.

I furrowed my brow, how did this get so outlandish

"Alright! You are all elders of the clan. Sealing the mountain for cultivation is precisely to set an example for the younger generations. To gossip about others' private affairs is not what cultivators should do!"

As soon as I spoke, they bowed their heads and looked down, no longer saying a word.

These elders, they might still have it in them to disagree with me, but they dare not.

I can summon underworld spirits and converse with celestial beings. They wouldn't dare to act arrogantly towards me.

"The flower hall is off-limits to everyone. A table will be set up in front of the flower hall... Also, the helipad is temporarily off-limits. A clean space should be cleared outside the side gate, and a table will also be set up there. Uncle, I'll leave this to you to handle." I assigned the tasks.

Uncle by marriage stood up and bowed, indicating that he understood.

"In addition, one should stockpile winter provisions such as rice and noodles, bedding, daily necessities, stationery, and medicine..." I looked at Uncle Mo, the elder of the Shen family who was in charge of managing the warehouse.

Master Mo was taken aback: "The Shen family has over twenty mu of vegetable gardens, plus ten mu of greenhouses and ten mu of medicinal herb sheds. Is there a need to prepare more"

"Since the divine has spoken, and wishes to seal the mountain for cultivation, we must be prepared for the entire winter. We cannot be careless," I stated earnestly. "You go to the accounting office later and withdraw funds up to one million's worth to prepare food and necessities."

Uncle Mo was startled, "Buying this much" he looked at me with confusion. I nodded slightly, and he didn't ask further. He bowed and left.

"Also, the Taoist temple on the mountain will be closed to visitors starting today."

"Huh " The other elders were a little nervous in this atmosphere, but after years of cultivation, they didn't dare ask me what was wrong.

"That's all for now, everyone. Cultivate yourselves peacefully and each do your own duty."

Exiting the main hall, I stood on the marble steps, feeling a little uneasy.

Jiang Qiyun lay in my room in the back garden, not in a hurry to return to the underworld. Ji and Luohou Xingjun were also very patient, playing chess and chatting idly under the flower hall, as if waiting for something to happen...

I stood facing the icy wind, shaking my head to calm myself.

My phone suddenly vibrated, and I quickly took it out to see —. Jiang Qiyun had never been so direct in defending me before. What was going on todayHe is the Emperor of Heaven, a deity. Some things cannot be spoken too plainly, especially to mortals. One can onl...
