Chapter 920: What Does This Guy Named Kong Xuan Do!?

Just at this moment, a Taoist with a pale face and a long beard was seen, stepping forward to give Yin Hong a deep bow, and Yin Hong treated him with the etiquette due to a master, asking, "What is your honorable name, Taoist Master?"

The Taoist replied, "Your master and I belong to the same sect, both under the lineage of Yuxu."

Yin Hong inquired, "What is your great name and honorable surname, Martial Uncle? For what purpose have you graced this place today with your instructions?"

"I am Shen Gongbao." The Taoist did not answer directly but instead asked back, "Where are you heading now?"

...

"Is this Yin Hong?!" The crowd looked at the valiant young man before them. Empress Jiang had been murdered, and Yin Hong, as the second prince, had also nearly suffered a miserable death, only managing to escape with great difficulty. Had it not been for a celestial immortal saving him, he would have likely been dead for a long time by now.

Now, having mastered a body of great skills, he had even brought along all the treasures from Chijingzi's cave. The Yin-Yang Mirror and the Purple Ribbon Silk Dress—everyone had witnessed their formidable power!

"Ah! Now he can finally go and avenge his mother's murder!" The crowd could not help but feel a surge of excitement looking at him. The once-destitute second prince had finally grown up. "Let's see how that Daji can remain so overbearing now!"

...

Before their eyes, they saw Yin Hong reply, "By my master's command, I am heading to Xiqi to assist King Wu in overthrowing Zhou."

Shen Gongbao's face turned solemn as he shouted, "Preposterous! Who is King Zhou to you?"

Hong said, "He is this disciple's father."

The Taoist gave a great shout, "Where in the world is there a principle that a son should assist others to rebel and overthrow his own father? Furthermore, if you assist King Wu to overthrow Zhou today, should any misfortune arise, on one hand, your ancestral temple will be destroyed by others, and the state will be possessed by others. With what face will you meet your founding ancestors?"

"Hiss... that actually seems to make sense...?" At this moment, Su Tianji and the others nodded repeatedly as they watched. "This Shen Gongbao seems to speak with quite a lot of reason..."

Yin Hong also felt it made sense and seemed rather moved, but then he shook his head and said, "But I have sworn an oath to my master. If I go back on my word, my four limbs shall turn to flying ash. What is more... this life of mine and this martial prowess were also given by Master..."

Shen Gongbao smiled and interrupted, "Where in this world is there such a thing as flesh turning to flying ash? How could such an oath ever come to pass? Heed my counsel, change your mind, and go overthrow Zhou. In the future, you will surely achieve a great undertaking, and you will not fail the spirits of your ancestors and the state, nor my sincere heart."

"..." Yin Hong was seen holding the Water-Fire Bell, wearing the Eight Trigrams Purple Ribbon Silk Dress, looking majestic and spirited as he turned around to go overthrow Zhou.

"This...?!"

"This person...?!"

Everyone stared at this scene in dumbfounded shock: "What is going on here???"

"What about the vengeance for your mother?!"

...

They had not been watching for long when next they saw Crown Prince Yin Jiao leave Mount Jiuxian, utilizing earth escape to head toward Xiqi. As he traveled, that beam of light inadvertently drifted down onto a high mountain.

Another Taoist came riding a tiger.

"Your Highness, please stay your steps."

Evidently, Yin Jiao had sworn: If I alter my previous words, I shall suffer the calamity of the plow and harrow.

Shen Gongbao merely smiled: "With your level of cultivation, how could you suffer the calamity of the plow and harrow?"

"..."

Three minutes later...

The crowd then saw Crown Prince Yin Jiao with the Male and Female Swords hanging from his waist, harboring the Soul-Losing Bell and the Heaven-Overturning Stamp in his bosom—all of them treasures given by Guangchengzi—and then heading off to overthrow Zhou with an aura of imposing valor.

Su Tianji, Jiang Xiaoyue, and Gu Tingyun looked at one another...

"???"

"How did this person also go to overthrow Zhou?!"

"This... what is going on?!"

...

After another period of time, at the Flying Cloud Cave of Mount Jialong, a dwarf was suddenly seen jumping and playing on the cliffside. It was precisely Tu Xingzi, the disciple of Ju Liusun, one of the Twelve Golden Immortals.

Just as he was about to depart, a Taoist riding a tiger emerged from the cliffs. This time, compared to before, his cultivation seemed even deeper. As soon as he opened his mouth: "Daoist friend, please stay your steps."

"..." Su Tianji, the various elders and sect masters, as well as Gu Tingyun and the others, all stared intently at the scene before them, as if terrified of missing even a shred of detail.

Just five minutes later...

They only saw Tu Xingzi steal his master Ju Liusun's Immortal-Binding Rope and the jade flask of elixir pills, heading straight for Shanshan Pass to overthrow Zhou...

"This, this, this...?!"

"This person...?!" Everyone stared at this Shen Gongbao with utterly bewildered faces.

They saw Shen Gongbao on the screen stroking his small mustache: "Hehehehe..."

Thus, they saw...

Yin Hong was refined into flying ash within the Taiji Diagram, fulfilling his oath on the spot.

Yin Jiao was pinned beneath the mountain... Guangchengzi, with a face full of headache, pushed a plow and harrow up the mountain...

Tu Xingzi was cleaved across the shoulder and back... his upper body falling... of course, this was a matter for later.

"Ah—!" Even Gu Tingyun could not help but cry out in shock, "This person... this—?!"

What kind of situation is this—?!

Everyone looked at one another, as if they had discovered something incredible.

Immediately after, having finished watching today's few episodes, they all turned back to re-watch several previous episodes where immortals had made their appearances, such as the segment where the Three Goddesses left their mountain...

They saw the Island of Three Immortals shrouded in swirling mist and dense pines. The swirling mist filled the gates with auspicious signs, and the dense pines formed a green facade; a bridge trod upon withered logs, and peaks were surrounded by creeping vines.

And then, sure enough, they saw a Taoist riding a tiger arrive...

Shouting in front of the cave entrance: "Daoist friend..."

"!!??"

Everyone exchanged terrified glances, as if they had truly discovered a massive secret, crying out in alarm, "Boss! What kind of divine power and magical method is this person using?!"

Su Tianji also hurriedly stood up from her seat, ran over to where Boss Fang was, and quickly dragged Boss Fang over, pointing at the screen and crying out, "Can this be learned?!"

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone looked over, their eyes burning intently as they stared at Boss Fang, "Boss! I want to learn it too!"

"Ah—! I want to learn this too!" Jiang Xiaoyue even hopped over.

"Uh... well..." Boss Fang said with a straight face, "This is a taboo art of primeval antiquity. Whether you can learn it depends on your respective destiny."

"If the destiny is sufficient, even a child of about ten years old can easily learn it." When Boss Fang said this, he looked at Jiang Xiaoyue.

"Ah! Does the boss mean this princess has the destiny?!" Jiang Xiaoyue was practically bursting with joy.

"I mean..." Boss Fang said with a straight face, "You little girl, if you were swindled away, you'd still help them count the money. What are you trying to learn?!"

"Trash boss!" Jiang Xiaoyue was so angry she practically stomped her feet, "You're the one who would be swindled away and still help them count the money!"

Immediately after, Boss Fang added, "If the destiny is insufficient, even if one ranks among the sect masters and elders, they will be unable to learn it."

When he said this, he glanced askance at Su Tianji.

"Hmm!?" Su Tianji felt a surge of joy in her heart. Just now when this trash boss said it could be learned, he looked at Xiaoyue, and the result was Xiaoyue couldn't learn it. Now he says it cannot be learned but looks at this elder... Could it be a reverse psychology maneuver...?!

Su Tianji instantly said with delight, "Could it be that this elder...?!"

"You can learn the reverse psychology maneuver."

"..." Motherfucker!

"Then who can learn it?!"

Owner Fang shrugged his shoulders.

"However..." Just then, Gu Tingyun was heard saying, "Even such formidable figures as the Three Fairies have died, Grand Master Wen also perished at Dragon-Vanishing Ridge, and Shen Gongbao can only resort to tricking people from the Chan Sect now... This Yin-Shang dynasty must finally be coming to an end, right?"

At that moment, someone cried out, "The preview is out! Tomorrow's preview! 'Kong Xuan Blocks the Army at Golden Rooster Ridge'!"

Everyone froze, turning their gaze toward Owner Fang. "What does this Kong Xuan do?! Could he possibly be even more powerful than the Three Fairies?!"
