Chapter 639 16: Zhuangzi, Free and Unfettered Journey_2

He had just eaten thirty or forty buns, and now, as he sat down, the table was filled with wine and meat. He gulped everything down, first standing up to pour Duncan a cup, honoring the ritual etiquette.

Then, he directly drank from the bottle.

This carefree monk had a straightforward personality, feasting heartily, and left a very good impression on the young man.

At this moment, Lady Jade Face whispered, "Master Bù Tāng, why have you come to Yangzhou?"

Just then, Master Bù Tāng noticed a group of enchanting women. His brows knitted as he gazed at Lady Jade Face with an indifferent expression, but when he looked at those lowly servant girls, his eyes showed pity. All beauty was like floating clouds, and the Charming Skill couldn't sway his heart.

This great monk didn't engage in Zen meditation, but his mastery of Buddhist teachings was deep.

He had no reservations, saying as he munched and drank, "I came chasing the virtuous mother of the Great Ming Divine Sect."

"Recently, they've been proclaiming everywhere that the Bright King has descended."

"Causing a stir in the whole city."

"But I didn't expect that there were so many people around the virtuous mother; Bright Envoy, various Protectors, Five Scattered People, and others are not easy to deal with."

"I suffered a bit of a setback and ended up losing track of them."

"So I came into town to find something to eat."

With that, the great monk burped in satisfaction, and the young man, hearing his words, signaled to the waiter to bring another jar of fine wine. Master Bù Tāng accepted it, drank down half the jar in one go, and admired him even more, saying leisurely, "Now they also have no idea where they've gone."

"All I can do is wander around, see if I can find a few demonic way evildoers to catch and take back to report to my master."

As he said this, he cast a glance at Lady Jade Face, immediately causing her heart to skip a beat.

Ming Sect?

Duncan's expression was slightly surprised.

Bright King descending?

Why does it feel like it has something to do with me?

Probably just an illusion.

The people of the Buddhist sect have always been at odds with Manichaeism, because Buddhism originally came from the east. After finally establishing themselves in Middle-earth, how could they allow other eastern sects to take root here?

If we talk about enthusiasm for dealing with the Ming Sect, the Buddhist sect far surpasses the Taoist sect.

Clearly, I came first!

Buddhism, after struggling for so long to become one of the Three Teachings, would never allow the Ming Sect to take over the Central Plains. Sometimes Buddhism and Taoism join forces, pinning down the Great Ming Divine Sect and pounding it violently.

However, with the virtuous mother being such a high-ranking figure, even Master Bù Tāng couldn't gain an advantage. Only after the turmoil in the Western Regions, with the Ming Sect suffering significant losses, did he dare to pursue her.

As for the increasing influence of foreign sects in the Central Plains, it indeed has historical connections.

There was a person named Shi Jingtang.

The guy who ceded the 'Sixteen Prefectures of Yan Yun,' it's also because of his presence that many foreign sects began to thrive greatly in the Central Plains.

The power of foreign tribes in these times is no weaker than during the Five Barbarians' Invasion of China.

Whenever the Central Plains dynasty shows signs of weakening, foreign tribes from all sides get ready to make a move.

Master Bù Tāng was very straightforward in his ways. After a full meal, he was satisfied and declined staying at an inn, simply dusting himself off and leaving. He could find any place to sleep soundly, sometimes sleeping with beggars in a ruined temple.

Today, having eaten to his heart's content, with oil dripping from his mouth, he still had over a dozen buns in his arms. In a good mood, he gave them to a little beggar by the roadside.

The young man, however, watched his departing figure and fell into deep thought.

Although he was quite different from Lu Shanjun, there was still a sense of a carefree wanderer about him.

Nightfall approached.

This inn had already been bought by Lady Jade Face. She also prepared a boat, so wherever Duncan planned to go, it would be relatively convenient along the way.

Having roamed the martial world for so many years, she was quite wealthy, owning even a secretive White Fox Villa in Guilin.

"Young master,"

A charming voice rang out.

Lady Jade Face motioned for the servant girls beside her to leave. She was dressed in a white palace robe, resembling the style of the Li Tang era, slightly alluring but with the dress cut in a way that didn't expose her full bosom.

In the not-too-distant room, Master Bù Jiè heard the noise and strained his ears. Silently, he thought, Young hero, you must resist.

Don't fall into this enchantress's trap.

The young man who opened the door, however, was calm, glancing up and down at Lady Jade Face, and casually said, "Come in."

This enchantress was simply craving his body and didn't really bear him much malice.

Moreover, after some interaction, they had somewhat formed a relationship.

She didn't dare to force things by rushing in headlong.

Lady Jade Face regarded the young man as a 'supreme earthly medicine,' and now this medicine was becoming purer, delighting her endlessly. Her patience was good. Even if she couldn't taste it for the moment, she could cultivate feelings first and then apply her enchantress tactics well.

The young man stood by the window, gazing at the moonlight. As Lady Jade Face entered the room, she started making the bed, as if she had taken his previous jokes to heart.

"What is it?" The young man turned his head.

This unparalleled beauty was as gentle as water, with an ethereal grace. As she meticulously made the bed, her slender waist moved gracefully. That full moon was more tempting than the bright moon in the sky; just one look could make someone avert their gaze, for fear of unwittingly falling into her trap.

Lady Jade Face got up to pour tea for the young man, speaking softly, "Young master seems to have never practiced any advanced Qinggong techniques."

Upon hearing this, the young man's expression shifted slightly, "Indeed."

Lady Jade Face, with a charming smile and mesmerizing fragrance, approached the handsome young man. Her poise was extraordinary, and her natural charm was so enticing with every smile, softly murmuring, "I have traveled the world and am most skilled in Qinggong."

"I wonder if the young master would like to learn?"

Oh?

Is there such a good opportunity?

Lady Jade Face's Qinggong was truly formidable, the best he'd seen so far, even slightly superior to the courtly woman of the Xuan Yin Sect.

When she employed her body technique, she appeared to glide step by step, drifting like an immortal, as if riding the wind.
