The old Taoist was not a petty person. He had traveled the world over the years and experienced the mortal world. His personality was already carefree. Even if he did not gain anything in the end, it was fate that he had met this white ape.
When fate had come, even if he gave the other party some benefits, what was wrong with that?
The old Taoist took out the edict talisman. It was old and tattered, so he had to be careful with it. If he was not careful, it might break.
There was another reason why the old Taoist was willing to use it. This thing could not be kept for long. There were a few that he did not have time to use before losing their effectiveness or the talisman was damaged.
These two were obviously going to break soon. He might as well find an opportunity to use them. At least it was better than throwing them away.
At this thought, the old Taoist made a hand seal and said to the white ape, "White ape, oh white ape, you are quite lucky to have met me. Today, I will give you a great opportunity."
Before the white ape could react, the old Taoist said, "Heaven and earth, the sun and moon shine, the nebula gather, the Dao of yin and yang, life and death, the Dao is one, the Dao is one, the Dao is one, the Dao is one, and the Dao is one.
The edict talisman in his hand ignited and an invisible force struck the white ape.
The latter jumped in fright and hurriedly jumped away, his face full of fear.
But very quickly, the white ape froze. He actually coughed and said, "Eh?"
The monkey demon knew the old Taoist's method and immediately jumped up and down in joy.
"Brother Ape, you're in luck. Master actually used the edict talisman on you. This is a priceless treasure." The monkey demon ran over to speak. The white ape's eyes widened in surprise and he coughed a few more times.
"I... I..."
The white ape heard it himself and was stunned. Then he said, "I... I can actually speak?"
Although there was still something wrong with the tone and it could not be heard clearly, there was no doubt that the white ape had mastered the ability to speak.
After getting used to it, he became more and more familiar with it. The expression on his face also became more and more excited.
"Can it really be done? Hahahaha, this is great, this is great. When I go back, I can talk to Shang'er and Little Five. Right, if Master Lin knew, he would definitely be happy. "
The white ape's voice was rough, but one could already tell what he was saying.
When the old Taoist heard this, he knew that the Master Lin mentioned by the white ape must be his master.
White Ape naturally knew that it had benefited from Master Lin. Otherwise, it would have taken at least one to two months to refine the Hyoid Bone with Shang'er and Little Five.
'Master Lin once said that when I receive favors from others, I have to repay them with gratitude.' White Ape thought to himself as he took a few steps forward and bowed to the Daoist priest.
This etiquette was very proper, but because it was done by White Ape, it looked rather comical.
However, White Ape didn't think so. He said, "Thank you, Taoist Priest, for enlightening me. White Ape is very grateful!"
The old Daoist smiled and said, "It's fine, it's fine. It's just something I did casually. It's fate that we met. Besides, our Cloud Sect has never discriminated against Yao cultivators. Our sect's Grandmaster even received a favor from a Yao cultivator."
At this moment, the monkey demon also came over. White Ape also expressed his gratitude solemnly.
Compared to the Monkey Demon's jumpy temperament, the White Ape was obviously a lot steadier. Of course, this was only relative.
At this time, the old Daoist asked what he wanted to ask.
"White Ape, I see that your cultivation is stable. May I know who your master is?"
White Ape thought for a moment and said, "My master's surname is Lin and his name is Jin. I became his disciple at Mount Zoroku."
At this point, the old Daoist priest said, "So it's Lin Jin from Mount Zoroku."
In his mind, he was trying to figure out what sect and heritage this Mount Zoroku was.
However, at this moment, a wolf's howl came from nearby.
It wasn't loud, but it was urgent.
White Ape's ears twitched. "Oh no, it's a fire wolf!"
After he finished speaking, he didn't have time to say anything else. He immediately leaped out of the courtyard and sprinted toward the courtyard where Xiao Huo was.
Inside the yard, Xiao Huo's body was covered in flames. A dragon beast as thick as a human's thigh was wrapped around its body. The dragon beast's body was like jade and ice crystals. Cold air surged, suppressing Xiao Huo's flames. Moreover, the force of the entanglement was so great that Xiao Huo couldn't break free in a short time.
Seeing this, White Ape's eyes turned bloodshot and he rushed forward.
Who would've thought that the jade dragon would open its mouth and release a gust of cold air? Although it wasn't as cold as the old dragon's, it was still unusually cold. White Ape was hit squarely by the cold air and half of his body was covered in frost. At the same time, a spotted python slithered over from the other side. It was as thick as a wooden barrel and over a hundred feet long. In the blink of an eye, it had coiled around White Ape.
On a rooftop outside the yard, a bald, bearded man was playing a bamboo flute. The sound was soft but he could control the spotted python. With a sudden tug, White Ape couldn't move.
All of this happened in the blink of an eye.
Beside the bald bearded man was a coquettish woman. Behind her was a blood-colored bat that was half the height of a person. If it were to spread its wings, it would probably be ten feet long.
"Heh heh heh, I've taken someone's money to get rid of a disaster. This is a job where I can take money and kill people. It's really not bad. Especially when I can work with you, Blood Bat, a famous beauty in the evil path. It's even more wonderful." The bald man said with a face full of anticipation.
The woman beside him rolled her eyes at the bald man. "Python Monk, don't think too much. If you were twenty years younger, maybe I would consider it. With your current conduct, you'd better not be a toad trying to eat a swan."
The bald man laughed. "Hahahaha, Blood Bat, even if you let me do it, I might not dare. Who doesn't know that you're a famous snake and scorpion? The number of men you've sucked dry must be at least eighty, if not a hundred. I still want to live for a few more years."
The woman laughed. "Stop talking nonsense. Hurry up and finish your work. Take the reward and leave. Our employer this time is horrifying. I'm afraid he's not a good person …"
At this point, the woman suddenly sensed something and immediately pointed with her finger. Then, the blood bat behind her immediately flew up and pounced toward the old Taoist and the monkey demon who were watching from the corner of the wall.
"The person the employer said he wants to kill doesn't seem to be this Taoist!" The bald man reminded her out of goodwill. The woman laughed. "It's fine. Buy one get one free. The main thing is, my blood bat is thirsty!"
On the other side, the old Taoist looked at the blood bat flying toward him and trembled in fear.
"F * ck f * ck f * ck, I've really had eight lifetimes of bad luck!"
He had only chased after them out of curiosity, only to see the fire wolf and white ape trapped. The old Taoist had traveled extensively and was knowledgeable. He knew that the white ape had offended someone powerful, so he didn't think of helping.
It wasn't that he was timid, but that the old Taoist wasn't very capable. Other than some of the Cloud Sect's inheritance and living off of his savings, he didn't even have a pet beast.
The monkey demon was only a rank two. He could be talkative, but he couldn't be counted on to put his life on the line.
As expected, the old Taoist turned his head and the monkey demon had already scrambled to the side.
"Evil disciple!"
The old Taoist stomped his feet in anger. However, he had no other choice but to bleed profusely. Otherwise, he might not even be able to keep his life.
He took out a talisman and chanted, "The wind from the nine continents, the talisman enters the throat of the god. Urgent!"
After saying that, he opened his mouth and swallowed the talisman. Then, he blew at the blood bat.
