Chapter 3035: Chapter 80: Divine Emperor Taoist Master! My East Xia’s Crouching Dragon and Phoenix Chick_4

Notably, Wang Baoguang had already filled in the missing parts of the plot for them, developing three different versions: an innocent version, a not-suitable-for-children version, and a melodramatic and bizarre version.

Shortly after that incident, the Blissful Divine Religion erupted with the scandalous [Purple Luanbird Saintess Betrayal Incident], causing a sensation across the Southern Blaze Divine Continent. Such a scandal was exceedingly rare in the million-year history of the Blissful Divine Religion.

Therefore, The Blissful Master decided to publicly execute the Purple Luanbird Saintess by a fleshly dismemberment and soul obliteration, as a warning to others, and to cleanse the shame.

However, on the day before the execution of the Purple Luanbird Saintess, there was the Yu Chi Potian prison break incident.

At that time, Yu Chi Potian, originally stuck at the Peak of True Immortal Realm, forcibly broke through to the Great Luo Realm and almost succeeded in the prison break.

Unfortunately, at the last moment, he still failed due to being detected by The Blissful Master just in time.

In his furious rage, The Blissful Master showed no mercy, quickly wounding Yu Chi Potian severely.

However, just as Yu Chi Potian and the Purple Luanbird Saintess were about to be killed by the enraged Blissful Master, Taoist Master Taichu appeared in time, blocking The Blissful Master.

Due to the chaotic situation at the time, Taoist Master Taichu only had time to save the mortally wounded Yu Chi Potian.

Later on, the Blissful Divine Religion announced that the Purple Luanbird Saintess had been executed by The Blissful Master, while Yu Chi Potian, feeling ”deeply guilty,” dejectedly requested to enter Chaos Mountain to mine as reparation for his mistakes.

To this day, Yu Chi Potian is still lingering in Chaos Mountain, continuing his mining.

This matter is treated as an internal scandal by both the Primordial Taoist Palace and the Blissful Divine Religion, strictly forbidden from being spread privately. As over a thousand years have passed, fewer people remember it.

Yet unexpectedly, this secret was dug up by Wang Baoguang and casually sent back to the Wang family in the form of intelligence.

This sounds like an incredibly melodramatic story, but life is often more melodramatic than stories.

After organizing the intelligence, Wang Mei proposed a bold plan. After Wang Shouzhe and Wang Fugui reviewed it and deemed it feasible, they approved the plan, jointly refined and elaborated it, naming it the [Leveraging Fate Fulcrum Action].

Of course, all of this happened more than a hundred years ago.

This [Leveraging Fate Fulcrum Action] also conveniently provided a foundational groundwork for Wang Shouzhe to attend the black market auction in the Southern Blaze Divine Continent.

Wang Shouzhe spoke sincerely, without reservation, explaining all the causes and effects.

This identity is indeed fake.

However, Taoist Master Taichu was momentarily stunned.

He carefully glanced at Wang Mei, then shook his head resolutely: ”Impossible! Shouzhe, you’re deceiving me. Look at this girl’s appearance, the first glance I took, I felt she was familiar. Look at her stubborn eyes, how similar they are to my disciple Yu Chi Potian’s? And look at her pretty yet enchanting face, bearing an eighty to ninety percent resemblance to that of the Purple Luanbird girl.”

Wang Shouzhe facepalmed.

Senior Hongzhen got into character way too fast, unstoppable.

He didn’t know whether to criticize Taoist Master Taichu for being too stubborn, or to marvel at Wang Mei’s extraordinary skill in disguise, to the point where even her features were perfectly emulated.

If he didn’t already know Wang Mei, knowing how adept her disguise was, he would have been confused by her face more often than not.

Just as he was about to say something else.

Wang Mei, with resolute eyes, interrupted Wang Shouzhe, saying, ”Family Head, I know you care about me and don’t want me to be in danger. But I must complete this plan no matter what. I want to utilize the power of the Nether Soul Hall to rescue my father and mother.”

”Child, your father doesn’t need rescuing; he can leave Chaos Mountain at any time,” Taoist Master Taichu hastily said, ”But your mother, well~~ this matter needs a long-term plan. You’re walking a tightrope between two Taoist Master-level forces, which is tantamount to picking chestnuts from the fire! This is too perilous! Wang Shouzhe, please say something to advise this child.”

”Wang Mei, don’t be reckless, don’t involve even the Taoist Master in deception.” Wang Shouzhe was getting a headache from these two.

After reprimanding Wang Mei, he bowed to Taoist Master Taichu to explain: ”Senior Hongzhen, Wang Mei is one of my Wang family soldiers, not...”

”Wang Shouzhe, you cunning old rascal, your credibility in my mind is now zero!” Taoist Master Taichu interrupted Wang Shouzhe unsatisfactorily, ”You’re emphasizing these points repeatedly only because you hope I won’t obstruct your insidious plan to utilize my disciple-grandson for some nefarious purposes.”

Upon hearing this, Wang Mei shot Wang Shouzhe a sly glance, then solemnly clasped her hands to Taoist Master Taichu: ”Senior Hongzhen, truly your wisdom is unparalleled, no wonder the Family Head often says, you and His Majesty the Divine Emperor are the ’Sleeping Dragon and Phoenix Chick’ of our East Xia Divine Dynasty.”

Wang Shouzhe’s eyes widened with a sense of insecurity.

Wang Mei, why even bring up private conversations here?

”Sleeping Dragon and Phoenix Chick?” Taoist Master Taichu was momentarily puzzled, then suddenly remembered, ”Oh, I recall now. It’s the characters from your Shenwu Sacred Alliance’s popular novel, ’Romance of the Three Kingdoms,’ isn’t it?”

”What did they say again? Ah, right, ’Sleeping Dragon and Phoenix Chick, having one can secure the world!’” Recalling the depiction of the Sleeping Dragon and Phoenix Chick in ’Romance of the Three Kingdoms,’ his tone involuntarily became proud, ”Shouzhe, you do have some discerning eye.”

”Uh...” Wang Shouzhe covertly wiped his forehead, chuckling awkwardly, ”Yes, yes, senior, you’re absolutely right.”
