Zhang Chulan was a little worried about whether Feng Baobao could understand, after all, this girl's IQ was really worrying.
Feng Baobao gave an OK sign and said confidently.
"Simple, this little thing is no problem for me. Everyone says I'm silly, but I'm actually incredibly clever!"
Zhang Chulan's lips twitched. "Clever my foot!" Zhang Chulan suddenly became a little worried. With Feng Baobao around, would his plan be able to be executed well?
Sigh, we can only take it one step at a time.
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
Zhuge Qing, pulling his suitcase, looked at Zhuge Bai, who was only waist-high beside him, and said with a helpless smile on his fox-like face.
"Bai, why are you so nervous? Are you scared?"
His younger brother was notoriously timid, so Zhuge Qing's statement was not unfounded.
Zhuge Bai raised his little face and said stubbornly, "No way! I'm super brave, how could I be afraid?"
Zhuge Bai's words were firm, and if you ignored the fact that his hands were still clinging to Zhuge Qing's leg and the tears that were about to fall from the corners of his eyes, they were quite convincing.
"Qing, do you think I can do it? I heard that the successor of the Qi Body Source Stream will also be participating in this Luo Tian Grand Ceremony."
Zhuge Qing rubbed his younger brother's head and said, "Bai, you don't know until you go out. Actually, you are already considered a master among the younger generation of the supernatural world. There aren't many opponents worth paying attention to in this Luo Tian Grand Ceremony. Lingyu Zhenren of Longhu Mountain is one of them. We don't need to worry about the others. What Qi Body Source Flow, what Eight Extraordinary Techniques? I don't believe there is anything in this world that can compare to our family's Wuhou Qimen."
He is a descendant of Zhuge Liang, the Prime Minister of the Han Dynasty, and the successor of the Wuhou Qimen in the world of supernatural beings.
As the only person in the Zhuge family to master all of the Wuhou Qimen techniques in decades, Zhuge Qing had every reason to be proud.
Of course, Zhuge Qing may seem aloof at first glance, but he is actually easygoing and has a very interesting inner world.
She is very good to her younger brother.
Zhuge Bai suddenly asked out of the blue, "What about Luke?! Shouldn't we worry about him too?"
Chapter Twenty-Nine: One Man's Story: Wang Ye of Wudang Pays Homage to the Celestial Master
Zhuge Qing's face twisted for a moment, then he snorted coldly.
“That brute is a monster, he’s not included in this list.”
Recalling his battle with Luke—no, Zhuge Qing didn't want to recall it at all; the existence of Luke made even those of them who cultivated Qimen question their very existence.
Those who practice Qimen Dunjia are most skilled at seeking good fortune and avoiding misfortune, so they will always stand in auspicious positions during battles.
For example, when facing a disciple of the Fire Virtue Sect, stand in the Kan position, which represents water. Use water to counter the opponent's fire energy, as water overcomes fire.
Of course, there are also those who stand in the Li position, forcing their opponent to the Kan position and suppressing their anger.
However, during his battle with Luke, Zhuge Qing was certain that he was in an auspicious position and that Luke was someone he could control.
As a result, Luke, that monster, activated his external martial arts technique and directly broke through his Qimen formation with brute force. No matter what spells Luke used, he couldn't stop Luke.
The Earth River Chariot was shattered by the opponent's punch, and the Earth Dragon Swimming was shaken out by the ground being broken. The Blinding Incense had no effect on him because the opponent could locate objects by sound, while he could not achieve the new activity of being silent.
Even his strongest defensive move, the Genzi Kunlun, was shattered by the opponent.
God knows how those three brain-dead guys at home, led by Zhuge Meng, mocked him after he was defeated by Luke.
In fact, Zhuge Qing also knew that Luke was able to defeat him not only because of his brute martial arts skills, but also because Luke's life cultivation was far superior to his own. Otherwise, Luke would have been exhausted by his Qimen formation kite long ago.
The Qimen formation is essentially a Qi formation. If you only rely on brute force without sufficient spiritual cultivation, even a powerful overlord like yourself couldn't break through it. Luke was able to break through his Qimen formation because of his profound spiritual cultivation.
I don't know how this monster cultivated. It's about the same age as me, but its life cultivation is surprisingly high, almost as high as my father's.
"What a beast! I wonder how he trained like that?"
After hearing Zhuge Qing's words, Zhuge Bai released his hands from Zhuge Qing's thighs and silently increased the distance between them.
Although they are brothers, there is a saying that goes, "Husbands and wives are like birds in the same forest; when disaster strikes, they fly away separately."
If even husband and wife, who are one body, are like this, how much more so brothers?
"Oh! So that's what you really think of me, Qing?"
A faint voice sounded behind Zhuge Qing, causing Zhuge Qing's body to stiffen instantly. He mechanically turned his head and looked at Luke behind him, who had a half-smile on his face. Zhuge Qing could barely maintain his squinty eyes on his fox-like face.
"Cousin, you're here too!"
In fact, Zhuge Qing's eyes are not small, but rather very large. The reason he always squinted in the original work may be because he had mastered Qi cultivation and wanted to conceal the sharpness in his eyes, or it may be for other unknown reasons.
But the Lu family deserves credit in this world.
After Luke, relying on his profound life cultivation and unparalleled brute force, broke through Zhuge Qing's Qimen Formation, he once unintentionally said something like, "Those with squinty eyes are all monsters."
This was merely a fleeting thought Luke had after defeating Zhuge Qing, when he thought of Zhuge Qing from the original story. Little did he know that Zhuge Qing would remember it.
From then on, Zhuge Qing always kept his eyes narrowed, perhaps because he also wanted to become a monster!
"Looks like I've come at the wrong time, spoiling your fun. What can I do? I'm just a beast."
Luke spoke cryptically with a blank expression, while Zhuge Qing's forehead was covered in cold sweat.
Perhaps in terms of fighting style, Luke is a reckless man who follows the simplest path of proving his way through force.
But in other aspects, they are quite different, especially in their pettiness and grudge-holding nature.
Zhuge Qing still remembers how Zhuge Meng mocked young Luke for not learning Qimen but instead learning that clumsy, rough, and powerful martial arts.
As a result, Luke did not react at the time, but just looked at Zhuge Meng with a smile.
Later, after Zhuge Meng achieved some success in Qimen Dunjia, Luke challenged her to a contest. During the contest, Luke broke through the Qimen Dunjia formation set up by Zhuge Meng and spanked Zhuge Meng, who was Luke's aunt in terms of seniority.
At that time, the entire Bagua Village was echoing with Zhuge Meng's heart-wrenching cries.
"It's a misunderstanding, it's all a misunderstanding. I was talking about Bai, he's an animal."
In order to avoid Luke's revenge later, Zhuge Qing decisively betrayed his younger brother.
Luke smiled and said, "It seems it really was a misunderstanding. But it doesn't matter if it's a misunderstanding. It's been a long time since we've fought. I look forward to meeting you at the Luo Tian Grand Ceremony."
Zhuge Qing finally opened his narrowed eyes, which flashed with a sharp light.
"I won't lose this time."
At least we won't lose so badly again.
Since his last defeat to Luke, Zhuge Qing has recognized his weaknesses and has undergone targeted training specifically for top opponents like Luke, so that he won't suffer such a crushing defeat when he faces Luke again.
Of course, you still have to keep your mouth shut; you can't be cowardly before the battle even begins.
But in reality, with Zhuge Qing's knowledge, how could he not know that the gap in life cultivation between himself and Luke could not be bridged in just a few years?
Luke smiled slightly and said, "I'm looking forward to it."
Zhuge Bai watched his older brother and cousin arguing, shook his head, and sighed.
"Can't you two be a little more mature?"
Luke ruffled Zhuge Bai's hair, making his blue fur look like a bird's nest, and said with a smile.
"Exactly, can't you be a little more mature? You're always trying to argue with me."
Zhuge Qing's lips twitched, and he decided to stop talking to these two for the time being.
"King Wudang, please pay your respects to the Heavenly Master!"
Luke gasped upon hearing this and said incredulously.
"Holy crap, this guy is so arrogant! He actually dares to call himself the King of Wudang. Qing, you have to remember him. He's a formidable opponent, the kind who can crush you."
Zhuge Qing rolled his eyes and said, "Come on, stop talking nonsense. The Taoist priest's name is Wang Ye, not the King of Wudang. Aren't you afraid of offending Wudang by saying that?"
Despite saying that, Zhuge Qing still turned his gaze over there, where he saw a lazy Taoist priest bowing to the old Celestial Master.
The Celestial Master often appears on television, so even though it was Zhuge Qing's first time visiting Wudang Mountain, he recognized him. However, he was seeing that Taoist priest for the first time.
I've never heard of Wang Ye from Wudang before.
However, since Wu was chosen as his representative to participate in the Luo Tian Grand Ceremony, he must have some extraordinary abilities.
Chapter 30: One Person's Story: The Power of Three Chariots
However, even though he believed that Wang was not as simple as he seemed, Zhuge Qing did not think that Wang would be his opponent.
Zhuge Qing may appear calm on the surface, but he is actually the most arrogant person in the world.
His arrogance wasn't just on the surface; it was ingrained in his very being.
Even after suffering a crushing defeat at Luke's hands, his inherent arrogance remained undiminished.
After all, he was the most talented person in the Zhuge family in decades, one of the top young talents, and had the confidence to be proud.
At this moment, Zhuge Qing would never have imagined that the king would inflict a crushing defeat on him in just a few days, completely overturning his worldview.
The dominance of Feng Hou Qi Men over sorcerers is revolutionary. It's like a top student who firmly believes that 1+1=2, but suddenly someone comes along and tells him that 1+1≠2, and he might equal 3, 4, or even any number.
The existence of Feng Hou Qi Men is enough to shatter the Dao heart of any sorcerer. Not to mention Zhuge Qing, even Chen Jinkui, the current head of the Shu Zi Sect, had his Dao heart shattered after seeing Feng Hou Qi Men.
However, unlike Zhuge Qing, who resisted the allure of Feng Hou Qi Men and even refused to learn it, forging his own path and ultimately mastering the Samadhi True Fire, Chen Jinkui went to the other extreme, choosing to obtain Feng Hou Qi Men by any means necessary, even kneeling before Wang Ye for it.
To some extent, Chen Jinkui was indeed very determined in his pursuit of the Dao, but he went astray and fell into inner demons. He did not understand that the foundation of cultivation is the cultivation of both body and mind. Although Feng Hou Qi Men is magical, it is not worth mentioning in the face of absolute cultivation of body and mind. Even Zhou Sheng, the creator of Feng Hou Qi Men, did not dare to be defiant in front of the Old Celestial Master.
The topic has strayed from the main point. Let's look at Wang Ye's side. He had just chatted with Zhang Chulan for a bit and then took him to pay respects to the Old Master. However, he had just finished the greetings when he heard Luke's words.
"Holy crap! What virtue or ability do I possess to dare call myself the King of Wudang? And did you not even graduate from elementary school? You can't even punctuate properly?"
Wang Ye was inwardly grumbling when he suddenly heard Zhuge Qing's words and couldn't help but nod.
"That's at least human language! And those squinty-eyed guys aren't bad."
If Wang Ye could hear it, then the Old Master could naturally hear it too, not to mention that Luke and the others weren't far away to begin with.
The old celestial master chuckled and said, "Hehe, little Wang, I didn't expect you to have this identity. This old Taoist Zhang Zhiwei greets the King of Wudang."
Wang Ye's scalp tingled instantly. He waved his hand and said, "Master, don't be like that. It's just a misunderstanding. If my master finds out, he'll beat me up. Don't listen to Luke's nonsense. We know each other. He's just joking!"
That's right, Wang Ye knows Luke. As a well-known battle maniac in the circle, he only fused with Luke in his early years. Although he was powerful, he was still no match for the older generation of masters.
Note that this refers to the older generation of masters, not that any person with an unusual appearance who is older can be considered a master.
Wang Ye's master, Daoist Yunlong, was a leading figure of his generation. He was a master of Tai Chi and a rare expert in cultivating the Three Powers. Luke once sought his guidance in order to break through his limitations.
The Chai School of Horizontal Training is a method that constantly refines one's physical body, allowing it to break through its limits.
