I Can't Be Sword God

Chapter 314



This was already extraordinary enough.

“My dear disciple, you’ve returned just in time.” The old Daoist chuckled,”quickly come and greet this Jian Jia.”

“This is the state preceptor of the Heluo dynasty, li maoqing, Lord li,” the old Daoist raised his hand and introduced.

Oh?

Li Chu was slightly surprised.

The Imperial advisor of Heluo city was a really important figure.

The current state preceptor, li maoqing, had been famous for more than sixty years. He held a high position in the Imperial court and was highly respected in the martial world. He was known by everyone both inside and outside of Heluo, and there were many strange stories about him circulating among the people.

He didn’t expect him to have such a youthful appearance.

This made Li Chu think of the little monk from White Dragon Temple. If the preceptor didn’t have a magical way to keep his face young, then he must have lived a Second Life.

Suddenly.

Li Chu recalled the incident with the Wang family.

Could that young scholar be him?

As these thoughts flashed through his mind, Li Chu nodded his head slightly and bowed. greetings, preceptor.

“Ah, I don’t dare to call you Lord.” Li maoqing stood up and returned the greeting. He didn’t put on any airs at all. little Daoist priest li is about the same age as me, so we can only talk as equals.

“State preceptor, did you go to the town earlier?” Li Chu asked after he sat down.

“Hehe, Daoist priest Li JR. Said that it’s about the Wang family?” As expected, li maoqing knew.

“Yes, I am.” Li Chu nodded.

“Little Daoist priest li also noticed that something was wrong with his house?” Li maoqing seemed to be very interested in Li Chu. He looked at Li Chu with a glimmer in his eyes.

“No, it’s just that the seventh young master of the Wang family is my good friend.”

Li Chu immediately told him about the Wang family’s misfortune.

“Hahaha.” Li maoqing laughed when he heard this. indeed, when I arrived here earlier, I saw an evil aura and couldn’t help but meddle in his business. I thought of a small way to help him block the disaster.

“I’ll transform into three bodies of mud. When the curse comes, I can share most of the evil power with him and spare his life. However, he’ll still be seriously injured. Compared to little Daoist priest Li’s method of taking back the life-saving medicine, it’s still a little lazy and opportunistic.”

Li Chu was not proud.

Li maoqing’s words were obviously because his emotional intelligence was full.

In fact, compared to his painstaking effort of going deep into the southern border, his move of easily resolving the fatal crisis was definitely much more exquisite.

Even his master didn’t know about this.

Li Chu glanced at the old Taoist and saw that his master was smiling evilly. He looked calm and did not seem to be surprised at all. It seemed that Yingying’s master might know about this method, but he couldn’t do it for the time being?

“Then with the Wang family’s current situation, how do we differentiate between the three mud men?” he asked again.

Li maoqing immediately came to his senses and took out a yellow talisman from his sleeve. the memory of those three mud men looks exactly the same as the real body. They won’t know that they are fake. Turn this talisman into a bowl of talisman water and pour it on the heads of the four of them. At that time, the spell will be dispelled by itself.”

Li Chu took the talisman and kept it in his sleeve. He couldn’t help but sigh.

There were thousands of mantras and tens of thousands of Sacred Arts in the world. They were indeed extremely magical.

In the end, he was still a primary school student who had just started on the road of cultivation.

The Wang family’s Affairs were handed over.

Yu Qi ‘an said, ” the state preceptor came to my small Taoist temple. He only said that he was looking for my disciple. Now that my disciple is back, you can tell me what you want to say, right? ”

“Yes, I am.” “I’m really here because of your reputation,” li maoqing said.

“The Grand Tutor has heard of me?” Li Chu was a little puzzled.

“Of course. I’ve heard three people mention little Daoist priest li.” Li maoqing said with a smile.

the first one is an official of the Supreme Court in Zhaoge city, Gongsun Zhe.

Li Chu had a deep impression of this former county Magistrate. He was a good official and had been reinstated.

He held a position in the court of judicial review, so it was not strange for him to come into contact with the current Imperial advisor.

Speaking of which, Gongsun Rou had written a lot of letters after she arrived in chaoge. At first, Li Chu would read it carefully and write a polite but kind reply.

But later on, he often went out, and when he returned, the letters from all kinds of girls would pile up into a small mountain, so he gradually Read less.

“He said that you, little Daoist li, are full of righteousness, have profound Daoist techniques, and are a dragon and phoenix that only appears once in a hundred years.”

“Lord Gongsun is too kind.” Li Chu replied.

“It’s true, but those who don’t cultivate have narrow horizons.” The old Daoist smacked his lips. my disciple’s looks and talent are not just rare in a hundred years. It wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say that it’s a once in four thousand years occurrence.”

“What he said is indeed the lightest.” “The second one is the Imperial court’s Python robe, Duan Lulong,” li maoqing said with a smile.

The Father of the Duan brothers?

Li Chu did not have a deep impression of him. He only vaguely remembered that he was a high-ranking member of Chaotian que who had a bad temper at the beginning, but found that he was easy to get along with after getting to know him.

If he thought about it seriously, Li Chu had met many people like this in his life. There were many people who weren’t human. They seemed difficult to deal with at first, but after getting to know them, they found that they had good tempers.

he said that you uphold the righteous path and have a high cultivation base. Although you often do things unexpected, you always have unexpected achievements. I think you must be in another realm.

Li maoqing’s tone was flat when he retold Duan Lulong’s story, but Duan Lulong’s expression must have been quite exaggerated when he said it.

“Ha.” Yu Qi ‘an chuckled. although it’s just a Python robe, you still have a good eye.

...

Li Chu nodded in agreement. Duan mangpao is still alright.

Li maoqing looked at the master and disciple and paused.

Although he was the current state preceptor and was close to reaching the top of the Imperial court and Jianghu, a Kasaya in a Python robe from Chaotian que still had some weight.

Why was it that in the mouth of this master and disciple, it sounded like some random cat or dog on the street?

However, he had an extraordinary temperament and didn’t have any desire to ridicule her. He continued, ” “The third one is master Jintan from White Dragon Temple.”

Little monk?

Li Chu recalled the demigod who had ‘joined forces’ with him to scare off the black Tortoise.

Although he looked out of place, he was a real big Shot. With such a big incident happening in shenluo city, it was normal for li maoqing, as the state preceptor, to go and investigate. This should be how he communicated with the little monk, right?

“His evaluation of you is only one sentence,”

Li maoqing’s eyes turned profound.

“He said Yingluo’s future is yours.”

...

Oh?

Li Chu did not show much emotion when he heard that.

It wasn’t that he didn’t care, but he understood that other people’s comments were just other people’s comments. He just had to listen to them. Before the college entrance examination, all the teachers in the school said that you were the top scorer.

So what?

In the end, he still encountered the greatest defeat in his life.

Yu Qi ‘an stroked his beard and nodded, ” “Although this little monk has average talent, cultivation base, and wisdom, what Lao Ai said is right.”

Li maoqing blinked.

They couldn’t help but want to say ‘good fellow’.

The old Daoist mumbled,

Just what kind of person would he take seriously?

If Li Chu wasn’t sitting here, he wouldn’t have hesitated to treat this old Taoist as a liar.

However, with such a powerful disciple here, he suddenly felt that the old Daoist was unfathomable.

A cool breeze blew.

Li maoqing turned his gaze back to Li Chu.

After all, even if the old Daoist wanted to act, it was not his goal to come here.

I’m going to the southern border to investigate some things, so I came here to see priest li. I’d like to send you an invitation.

“Invitation?”

I’d like to invite you to participate in the imperial examination of the celestial gate in Zhaoge city next year. Li maoqing said slowly.

He handed over a letter. with this letter, you can skip the first round of the examination and directly enter the second round of the immortal gate imperial examination.

The celestial gate imperial examination.

Li Chu naturally knew about this. It was held once every four years and was even more eye-catching than enkros. It was a grand event that the whole world paid attention to. After all, comparing techniques and divine powers was much better than comparing Scriptures.

However,

“Preceptor, I’m not interested in this,” Li Chu declined politely.

The biggest purpose of the immortal school imperial examination was to become famous.

That’s right.

This was because the Heluo dynasty relied on the Chaotian Palace the most, and after the talented disciples of the various immortal sects performed outstandingly in the immortal sects ‘imperial examinations, it was unlikely that they would join the Chaotian Palace and change schools.

The purpose of doing so was to show the power of he Luo to the four vassal states, to show the prosperity of the immortal sects to the people of the world, and at the same time, to provide a stage for the younger generation and the most direct opportunity for all immortal sects to compete with each other. The winner would be famous, and the loser would eat dust.

As for those who were outstanding in the celestial gate imperial examination, most of them ended up with empty positions in the Imperial court and returned to their own homes. After giving the Imperial court a name, he would more or less be able to win over some feelings.

Li Chu had already suffered from his reputation. Now that he was in Yuhang Town, he could hardly walk on the streets normally. Everywhere he passed, he was easily chased by people and had already reached the point of annoyance.

Li maoqing seemed to have expected his refusal. The preceptor shook his head and smiled, ” “This time’s celestial gate imperial examination is different from the past.”

“If we get a good ranking this time, we’ll have a real chance to serve the Imperial court.”

“I’ve been silent for more than ten years,” he explained,”and I’ve come out this time to help His Majesty strengthen the mountain and river Division.”

Li Chu had only heard of the name landscape division.

It seemed that in name, it was the patrol of Heluo’s mountains and rivers, but in reality, it was an organization established by the Heluo imperial family to replace Chaotian que. However, for many years, he didn’t make any noise.

The security of the Heluo dynasty still fell on the shoulders of Chaotian que.

In fact, everyone felt awkward in this situation.

Chaotian que also hoped that someone could share the heavy responsibility on their shoulders. The Imperial court also did not want to rely on a sect that was not very powerful.

But things couldn’t be done with a heart.

“As long as you stand out in this immortal school imperial examination, you can enter the mountain and river Division. The division of mountains and rivers would adopt a completely new model and no longer operate as an independent immortal sect. “I hope that it will not only replace Chaotian Palace, but also become a Kasaya,” li maoqing said. He suddenly stopped and smiled.”There’s no need to say so much. Next year will be the first time we’re choosing materials, and we’ll need help. As for Daoist priest Li JR., I have high hopes for you. Just as Master Jin Tan said, the future is yours. As long as I do well in the mountain river Division, my position will be empty.”

Li maoqing looked straight at Li Chu.

The meaning was obvious.

As long as you have the ability, you can be the successor of the state preceptor.

Li Chu and he looked at each other.

But he didn’t think much and shook his head.

“Still not.” I’m willing to be a law-abiding citizen of Heluo, ” he said with a smile. but I’m going to be a public official. I think life in deyun temple is quite good.

He gently pushed the letter back.

Li maoqing looked at him with pity in his eyes, but he still nodded.”Everyone has their own aspirations. Since little Daoist priest li wants to be a free man, I won’t force him.”

He stood up, looking quite suave.

“In that case, I won’t stay any longer. Sect head Yu, little Daoist priest li, we’ll meet again.”

Li maoqing said as he walked out of deyun temple.

Li Chu went to see him off and saw him walk through the front yard and out of the temple. As soon as he stepped out of the door, his body disappeared. His whereabouts were unknown, and his head and tail could not be seen.

He was indeed an expert.

Li Chu returned to the backyard and saw the old Daoist giving him a thumbs up. you’re generous, my disciple.

“What?” Li Chu was stunned. He didn’t know what kind of praise his master was giving him.

“In the previous years, the second round of the celestial gate imperial examination would give at least a thousand taels of silver as a bonus. If you enter the court examination, you will be given ten thousand taels of silver as a bonus. Since they’re making such a big deal next year, they might increase the price again.” The old Daoist clicked his tongue and said,”you’ve pushed at least a thousand taels away.”

Li Chu sat down and said, ” “They’re all mere worldly possessions.”

“Oh, really?” The old Daoist looked at him suspiciously.

“Yes.” Li Chu answered with certainty.

“Do you regret it?” The old Daoist suddenly asked.

Li Chu’s shoulders slumped.

“Yes.”
