The Way of Spiritual Journey

Chapter 66, The Man Who Descended from the Sky

half an hour.

Two figures were running side by side in the night.

"Old bald man, have you lost your integrity in your later years and broken your vow of celibacy? Your fighting ability is not good, you let the duck that was in your hand fly away." Yi Ying said.

"Pah! You old bastard, if it weren't for Buddha's intervention, you would have been dead long ago. You say I'm no good? You think you are? Why didn't you catch that duck?" another figure retorted.

"Sigh, we were careless after all. Who would have thought that old guy had become a peak expert?" Yi Ying sighed.

"Who says otherwise? A peak expert! We actually crippled that peak expert. If word gets out, it will be enough to make us proud for the rest of our lives." Another figure sighed.

"Huh? Hahaha..." The two figures looked at each other and burst into laughter.

Then they ignored each other and sped up their pace, running forward at full speed.

Under the moonlight, the two figures gradually became clearer, revealing a monk and a Taoist. The monk was an old reclining figure, and the Taoist was an old young man.

"I consulted the oracle before I came. Tonight is the time for my disciple, the Crouching Dragon, to break his fast. Therefore, I must take that spiritual body with me to help my disciple break through the physical body and become a spirit." Suddenly, the old Crouching Dragon said this while running.

"Bullshit! I've been divining for twenty years, waiting for this very night. My disciple, Phoenix Chick, will break through to become a spirit tonight. You old bald man, you dare to try and steal that spiritual body from me? I'll fight you to the death!" Upon hearing this, the old chick visibly paused, then stopped abruptly and began to curse loudly.

"Fine, fine, you want to fight to the death, huh? Come on, who's afraid of who? I'm determined to have that Spiritual Body, no one can stop me." Old Wo shouted angrily. At this point, there was no point in talking about martial ethics. He kicked out and shamelessly swept his leg towards Old Chu.

"You old bald man, how dare you!" Old Chu truly didn't expect the other party to be so shameless, resorting to violence without warning. Since that's the case, there's nothing more to say. Old Chu cursed and slapped the opponent hard.

"Hmph, I'll slap you to death, you shameless bastard." The old girl struck him with a palm, her face full of smugness.

However, Lao Chu was careless once again. He knew that Lao Wo was shameless, but he did not expect to know how shameless the other party could be.

"Haha, you old bastard, thanks for helping me out. Let's grab a drink sometime." It proves that shamelessness is invincible; what good is shamelessness anyway?

Using the force of that palm strike, Lao Wo flew away, leaving behind a single sentence that left Lao Chu bewildered in the wind.

"Ah, ah. You old bald man, I'm going to kill you, I'm going to castrate you..." The old girl was stunned when she saw that the old man had actually used her strength to get away.

Soon, the old man went mad, trying to utter the most vicious words of his life: to castrate the old monk.

No, that's not right. This isn't malicious; it's eliminating a scourge for the people.

The old man's eyes were firm, his steps even more resolute. In an instant, he unleashed unprecedented power to chase after it. He would never give up on the Spirit Body.

"Ah! Where is everyone?" Old Wo screamed from ahead, followed by a furious question to the heavens.

Upon hearing the sound, the old chick's heart tightened, and it quickened its pace, leaping forward.

"Where are they?" the old woman asked angrily.

"You old bastard, tell me, did you collude with others to abduct the Spirit Body?" Old Wo was burning with rage, his eyes bloodshot, seemingly losing his mind, and he loudly questioned Old Chu.

"Well, you old bald donkey, that's exactly what I was going to ask you. You're turning the tables on me, aren't you? Come on, let's get this straight today, or no one will survive." The old man laughed angrily, rolled up his sleeves, and was about to start fighting.

"Wait a minute, old man, you're so old, your face is practically buried in the yellow earth, how can you still have such a temper? What's wrong with me asking a question? I didn't say it was definitely you, really."

Old Wo realized that Old Chu wasn't joking this time; he really wanted to make a move. Therefore, putting out the fire with water was the right thing to do.

"Hmph, you old fool, you're the one who's practically buried in the ground. People die every day in this world, why don't you die? Are you just here to annoy people?" Hearing this, the old man's anger subsided slightly, but he was still resentful. If he didn't vent his anger, it would be easy to leave behind a demon in his heart.

"Hehe, do you think it's possible that the peach wood has a backup plan?" Old Wo knew that the old girl had satisfied her anger, so he could only chuckle and then began to analyze the main topic.

"Impossible, right? We've been guarding Dadu for over a year, and we've calculated that his time is up. He'll definitely take a risk to try and get the Spirit Body, which is why we launched this ambush. There's no reason he could have any backup plan." Old Chu's expression turned serious. He was actually a very analytical person.

"On a life-or-death journey, it's hard to have a backup plan, that's true." Old Wo sighed, his expression darkening.

The scene quieted down. These two old guys had been plotting for who knows how long and busy all night, but in the end they hadn't gained anything of substance. It's true that man proposes, God disposes.

"A person sent from the sky?" After a moment, the two old men seemed to be of one mind, their eyes lit up at the same time, and they looked at each other and blurted out.

"Yes, it's most likely him. He's the only one who can be connected to this spiritual body." Old Wo nodded.

"Alas, if that's the case, then forget it. He's a person of great virtue, not someone we can associate with." Old Chu also sighed.

"It's a great blessing that our two disciples can follow him. As for the spiritual essence body, it's probably not their destiny," the old man comforted himself.

"But I calculated that the Phoenix Chick would break free tonight!" Thinking of this, the old chick had doubts again.

"Oh no, could it be that I've been taken to a brothel?" Old Wo thought for a moment and his expression changed drastically.

Upon hearing this, the two old men fell silent again, their expressions shifting between light and dark.

"Sigh, well, a man who doesn't indulge in romance in his youth is wasting his life. Once he's gone to a place like that, even his own father can't bring him back. Let them be." After a moment, the old man sighed again.

"Hehe, it's good that you're so optimistic, old man. Let's ignore them and find somewhere else to have some fun." The young girl had come to terms with it, but the old man was even more optimistic. All his troubles vanished in an instant.

"Let's go to Peach Blossom Temple and claim it first." The old man didn't waste any more time. Since the situation couldn't be changed, he would change his attitude.

The two old men immediately changed direction and went off together.

On the other hand, Li Lang had one on his left and one on his right. Oh, no, he carried one on his shoulder and held the other by his hand, and they ran a long way before stopping to catch their breath.

"Fengming Street is just ahead. I'll take you back. You'd better be more careful in the future," Li Lang said to Rou'er, offering a brief reminder.

"Young master, I don't want to go back there. Miss is in such a state, and we don't know if she's in any danger. If we go back, the madam will definitely punish me. I don't care about myself, but Miss will be pitiful..." Rou'er looked at Li Lang pitifully with tears in her eyes. Her words were full of sorrow and grief, which was the most heartbreaking.

Li Lang couldn't stand this.
