Chapter 410: Old Daoist Ma

Translator: Sparrow Translations Editor: Sparrow Translations

In the huge conference room.

Xi Menjian's voice echoed within the room. "Comrades... although we were caught off-guard by the arrival of the new era, we still did our best. However, they are a few of them who think that by possessing some powers, they can harm others, spread malicious thoughts like a cult and even occupy a mountain to call themselves king. This is an insult to us!"

"In conclusion... After taking into account the chaos, we have been approved to go ahead with an inter-departmental mission with the quick response team of the Religious Bureau as the backbone. The policemen and the armed forces will support and the codename for this activation is 'Typhoon'. The purpose of this activation is to wipe out all the self-proclaimed gods! By doing that, we will be protecting our people's lives and properties, ensuring peace and stability in the society... On the ground, I will give the command to commence the activation..."

...

Xi Menjian ended the meeting. Just as he was about to take a sip of tea, a piece of news came and his expression changed. "What? A volunteer? How is this not fooling around? Get him..."

His eyeballs rolled as his attention shifted. "Send Group 2 and Group 3 out. We need to ensure his safety... Let's treat anything else as a drill for Operation Typhoon..."

...

Green Phoenix Mountain.

The surroundings were beautiful and the undulating terrain was filled with flora and fauna.

On the rugged mountain path, there were occasional passers-by heading towards General's Temple.

"I've heard from the villages around that this temple is extremely effective especially when asking favours from the General! He will always accede to your request! Daoist Ma is a magical person, for he is able to use the water mixed with burnt talismans to treat illnesses..."

"Hmph..."

Hearing this, Fang Yuan remained speechless and was deep in his thoughts.

The loosening up of the rules which governed this world led to the uprising of the god dao, and not the cultivators or the evolvers!

Even Fang Yuan was a humble cultivator and had to gather spiritual force by himself.

However, it was different for gods. As long as enough people worshipped them, they could quickly become more powerful and their physical body would be strengthened.

Considering how many people were there last time compared to the world population now, the resources which the god dao could feed on was almost unlimited!

"Of course... The concentration of spiritual droplets in this realm is still not enough to create a real god. However, the influence it is able to gather is still substantial enough..."

Fang Yuan thought silently to himself. At this point in time, Ye Yingzi started running towards him. "Chief of Bureau has approved your plan... however... let us ensure your safety!"

"Please wait for a while, Group 2 and Group 3 are arriving!"

'It seems... Xi Menjian wants to see my hidden power!'

Fang Yuan smiled. His objective had no conflict with the country's interests. Therefore, Xi Menjian could offer him full support. 'I'll let them see what I can do!'

Fang Yuan's trip to Green Phoenix Mountain was in fact, an experiment.

It proved that Ye Yingzi did not take extreme measures, which allowed them to trust each other even more.

"Good day, Chief!"

On the top of the mountain, a group of policemen were rushing towards Fang Yuan. "We are here to take orders!"

"Disperse the crowd first. I will talk to him!"

Fang Yuan nodded his head and arrived at the General's Temple.

"Creak!"

The door opened by itself and a gust of wind blew the leaves on the ground. "My fellow followers, I have an important guest to meet today. Please come again another day!"

A loud voice was heard from the hall.

"Since it is your instructions, we will follow!"

The rest of the villagers were true believers. After hearing this instruction, they obediently left the mountain without any complaints.

"This person... he seems like he is a cultivator! His influence here is indeed strong!"

Ye Yingzi slid her hand to her waist and was on guard.

"Furthermore... He is trying to scare us away!"

Fang Yuan led Zhao Daniu and Ye Yingzi into the main hall of the temple.

Under a ferocious-looking statue, an old daoist was seated with his legs crossed. He had a long face and appeared shaken, giving off a unique vibe. "I am Daoist Ma Kunyuan. I believe all of you are from the government, right?"

"That's right... do you know why we're looking for you?"

Fang Yuan got himself a prayer mat and sat in front of the old daoist.

"Let me guess! You are suspecting my methods of using boiled talisman water to treat patients!"

Ma Kunyuan stroked his beard. "It's a pity... My vision is to follow the dao. These small tricks mean nothing!"

He retrieved a thin branch from a peach tree and inserted it into a jade bottle.

"Buzz!"

Following a brilliant green glow, the branch started to grow and flowers bloomed from it into beautiful peach blossoms.

Such an ability to recreate life stunned Ye Yingzi and Zhao Daniu and both of them were in a daze.

Seeing their reactions, Ma Kunyuan was elated.

"Oh, so what should we do to learn these tricks?"

Fang Yuan appeared friendly and asked.

"The cycle of life and karma means that you will need to pay with gold and silver to exchange for spiritual talismans and spiritual water... I can provide assistance to the government, but the rates will be different... Also, I am lacking in a few disciples for I am intending to start a sect in Green Phoenix Mountain!"

Ma Kunyuan stated his thoughts as though he had already prepared what to say.

"Pa! Pa!"

Fang Yuan clapped. "Daoist Ma, you've planned everything well. You first intend to display your might before offering your services. Are you planning to blackmail the country and the organisation?!"

Fang Yuan had to admit that this cultivator was indeed smart. Ma Kunyuan knew that it was unwise to go against the country and therefore seek to cooperate.

However, he was only requesting to be treated normally and was secretly hinting for the government to grant him the entire Green Phoenix Mountain.

If someone else came to confront Daoist Ma, he would probably be threatened enough to grant Daoist Ma the position he had asked for. From then, Daoist Ma would be able to get all the resources he wanted without restrictions and become powerful among the powerful.

"I wouldn't dare!"

Ma Kunyuan gave a solemn look. "However, I do have some good karma for protecting this place. Are you guys intending to take action on me for no reason?"

"Good karma?"

Fang Yuan snickered. "Let me ask you. If you are an official daoist, have you registered yourself with the government? Nope! Did you build this General Temple? Do you have the rights to this property? Nope! And you talk about protecting a place? Hehe... Let's not talk about your talisman water for now. Don't you think I have no idea about your antics!"

"Adding everything up, you have not only committed obscene acts on women, you have also spread malicious cultist thoughts. All of these are enough to sentence you!"

"Sigh! Ma Kunyuan, give up today! Lock him up!"

With a sense of justice, Fang Yuan waved his hands and two soldiers came forward.

"D*mn you!"

Daoist Ma leapt out a few feet and his expression changed.

Fang Yuan's prediction was extremely accurate and exposed Daoist Ma had done.

There was an ancient saying which described that if one did not follow the king, one would not be able to accomplish anything.

Daoist Ma knew that he had committed illegal acts as was intending to come up with some tricks to redeem himself and from there enter the government to get a position which would grant him immunity.

Who would've thought that such a weird person like Fang Yuan would appear to expose him?

As he waved his hands, two streaks of black fog appeared and the two soldiers beside Fang Yuan fell to the ground.

"HA!"

Zhao Daniu knew that something was going wrong. With a deep breath, he expanded in size and his body was covered in a green hue.

"Natural Rock Skin Technique?"

The old daoist became shocked before smiling calmly. "It's a pity, you are only a dumb person who knows how to show off.... Let me show you something you've never seen before. Strike!"

"Sha! Sha!"

Beneath Zhao Daniu's feet, a layer of sand appeared and started to spread out, devouring almost half of Zhao Daniu.

"I am treating you with respect but it seems like it is not working..."

Ma Kunyuan placed his hands behind his back and sighed. "Forget it. I shall make all of you convinced of my power before requesting for your leader to talk to me!"

"How arrogant!"

Such an arrogant attitude of his angered Ye Yingzi.

If he was truly a respectable and capable daoist, they would not have such an extreme reaction. However, prior investigations had revealed that this person had past criminal records and was even more extreme in his actions after obtaining powers.

If this kind of person were to enter the government, it would be an insult to the government!

Without hesitation, Ye Yingzi pointed her gun forward and shot three times.

"Too slow! Too slow!"

Daoist Ma dodged the bullets. "Although the gun is powerful, you must consider who is wielding it... Although I am not faster than the gun, I am faster than you!"

"Whoosh!"

Like a leopard pouncing on its prey, Daoist Ma's right hand turned into a claw and struck towards Fang Yuan.

After all, although this child seemed young, it was obvious that he was their leader, and he might just be a descendant of a powerful person.

"Protect chief!"

With a scream, Ye Yingzi and a few other soldiers leapt forward but felt helpless.

Since this person was able to resist the quick response team's ambush and was unafraid of guns, he was indeed a threat to the country.

If they could not suppress him this time, he would get out of control in the future and claim this land for himself for good.

"I will never let that happen!"

Ye Yingzi roared and leapt forward like a female leopard.

"Hehe... Your courage is admirable... After my sect is formed, I will surely hire you as my servant!"

Unfortunately, Daoist Ma was way much stronger than Ye Yingzi. With a finger, he transformed into numerous shadows.

Ye Yingzi turned cold, weak, and fell to the ground.

"Haha... kid, did you see that? I wanted to show my loyalty to the government and yet you have to force me to such lengths... Next time, my offer would not be so simple. Furthermore, I don't care who your backing is. I promise that you will be in deep trouble!"

With confidence, Daoist Ma exclaimed.

With such an easy victory, his confidence surged.

His power would mean that he should not be restricted to just this place and he deserved much more.

However, the child in front of him remained calm and unpredictable.

"Are you done?"

With a calm look, Fang Yuan stood up. "If you are, then you can die now! Although I will do the same thing as you in your shoes, it is unfortunate that you encounter me today!"
