At the foot of Dragon Tiger Mountain, there was a large group of Taoists holding flags and banners.
The banners said, "Welcome, Mr. Chen Zhao, to Dragon Tiger Mountain to exchange Taoist culture and promote long-term friendship."
Then there was the sound of drums and firecrackers.
Chen Zhao's steps wavered, his expression dazed.
Calm down … I have to calm down now.
Suppressing his anger, Chen Zhao exhaled deeply.
At this time, a seventy or eighty year old Taoist walked towards Chen Zhao and Mo Han.
Chen Zhao didn't know if the old Taoist was someone important in Dragon Tiger Mountain.
But he was a normal person.
He wasn't an expert who pretended to be a normal person.
He was just a normal person.
"Hello, may I ask who is Mr. Chen Zhao?"
"I am." Chen Zhao had a fake smile. "Who are you?"
"Hello, Mr. Chen. I'm Zhang Xuanqing, the 145th leader of Dragon Tiger Mountain's Celestial Masters Sect. I'm also the chairman of the Taoist Culture Association. On behalf of the association, I thank you again for your great contribution to spreading and promoting Taoist culture."
"Uh … I … I don't understand …"
"Ha … I understand, I understand that Mr. Chen wants to keep a low profile," Zhang Xuanqing said.
"Ha …" Chen Zhao still didn't understand what Zhang Xuanqing was doing.
Or what was Zhang Tianyi doing?
"Mr. Chen, when … when will the donation be delivered?"
Chen Zhao rubbed his forehead. As expected, Zhang Tianyi was tricking him.
"Ha … How much did I promise to donate? Or how much did someone promise me? "
"Ten million yuan." Zhang Xuanqing's old face was almost blooming with a smile.
Chen Zhao was so angry that his nose was crooked.
Ten million yuan wasn't a lot. He could earn it by sleeping at home.
However, Chen Zhao really didn't want to pay ten million yuan.
Seeing so many people's gazes, he really wanted to leave.
But there weren't just hundreds of religious people here.
There were even a dozen reporters. Chen Zhao didn't know what media they were from.
Was he that free?
This wasn't good, very bad.
Chen Zhao took out his checkbook and wrote a check for Zhang Xuanqing.
After receiving the check, Zhang Xuanqing's smile became even brighter.
It was as if he was twenty years younger.
"Oh, what position does Celestial Master Zhang have in the Taoist Culture Association?"
"Honorary Chairman," Zhang Xuanqing said.
"He'll be the vice president from now on," Chen Zhao said.
"Ah?"
"I want to be the chairman," Chen Zhao said matter-of-factly.
"That's impossible … Mr. Chen, Celestial Master Zhang's reputation and status in the Taoist world wouldn't allow us to do such a thing.
Chen Zhao picked up the phone. "Hey, cancel a signed check for me. Reason? It was stolen. "
"Wait … Mr. Chen, you can't do that."
"No, I can." Chen Zhao looked at Zhang Xuanqing with a smile. "You haven't cashed the check yet. Even if you did, I can get it back. So, I hope you can calm Zhang Tianshi down. He has to be the honorary vice president whether he wants to or not. If I suddenly hear that he's going to resign, his lawyer will probably talk to you about Chinese law." Zhang Xuanqing nodded.
Zhang Tianyi wanted to disgust Chen Zhao, and Chen Zhao wanted to disgust Zhang Tianyi.
Not to mention other aspects, at least in terms of status in the Taoist Culture Association, he was a notch above him.
"But … Mr. Chen, you're not even a Taoist, right?"
"Ten million can't even buy a Taoist teaching certificate?"
Monks had credentials, while Taoists had Taoist teaching certificates.
A Taoist teaching certificate was actually a bit complicated because the country didn't recognize you as a Taoist.
But it recognized that you were a Taoist who had received the teachings of a Taoist master and disciple.
It was a bit awkward and a bit roundabout.
It was a way for the country to restrict religions.
It prevented religions from becoming too big and even causing disasters to the country and people.
"Can I not take the money?"
"Sure, but I'll use the ten million to bribe the media to say something that disrespects Taoist culture."
"Mr. Chen, do you have a grudge against Zhang Tianyi?"
"No, of course not. We're very good friends."
Haha … Very good friends?
Only a fool would believe you.
But Zhang Xuanqing was just joking.
The ten million yuan was in his pocket.
It was impossible to take it out again.
Not many people were willing to donate money to religious associations nowadays.
Rich people like Chen Zhao were even more in need of resources.
If one looked on the bright side …
With a rich person like Chen Zhao, it wouldn't be bad to recognize a Taoist identity.
He could use it as a long-term meal ticket.
As for Celestial Master Zhang, he could find someone to talk to him about it.
Celestial Master Zhang was reasonable and wouldn't make things difficult for him.
After all, everyone was here to spread and promote Taoism.
…
Zhang Tianyi, who was on Dragon Tiger Mountain, received a call.
He was so angry that he smashed the phone to pieces.
This time, he had shot himself in the foot.
Zhang Tianyi called his disciples and grand-disciples and got into position.
They were waiting for Chen Zhao to come.
When Chen Zhao reached the top of Dragon Tiger Mountain's Celestial Master Sect.
He saw Zhang Tianyi's troops.
Among Zhang Tianyi's troops, there were a few that he knew.
But he didn't know most of them.
Of course, they didn't know Chen Zhao either.
They didn't understand what was wrong with Celestial Master Zhang today.
At first, they thought that some enemy had come to attack the sect.
In the end, only two people came.
"Haha … Old Zhang."
"Haha … Chen Zhao."
Two hypocrites. It had only been one night.
But they were like long-lost old friends.
Warm greetings and hugs.
"Chen Zhao, give me back the honorary chairman of the Taoist Culture Association," Zhang Tianyi said in a low voice.
"You're the great Celestial Master Zhang. Why do you care about an honorary chairman?"
"That's a part of my luck. I can give it to you, but you can't take it from me."
"Ha … I'm relieved to hear that." Chen Zhao chuckled.
In the distance, the people of the Celestial Master Sect saw the old and young chatting happily.
They all felt that Zhang Tianyi's action was unnecessary. They didn't understand why Celestial Master Zhang would make such a big scene.
There were only a few people who knew Chen Zhao. They were all terrified.
Among them, Cui Siyin, the guardian beast of the Celestial Master Sect, was the most terrified.
She didn't know that Chen Zhao would come, nor did she know why he was here.
Prior to this, she had never heard of any news at all.
In the past, Chen Zhao had left too deep an impression on her.
She had almost died in his hands several times.
Now, she just wanted to escape to her room, lock the door, close the windows, and sleep for a long time.
Yang Guo and the dragon girl, Accra Bumon, also knew him.
When they were on Demon Island, they had witnessed how terrifying Chen Zhao was.
They finally understood that the guy in front of them wasn't weaker than Zhang Tianyi.
Therefore, they were wary of Chen Zhao's sudden visit.
