Protect Our Clan Leader

Chapter 3054: Chapter 85: Wang Shouzhe! Poverty Alleviation Commissioner_2

”Alright, just shut up.”

The Taoist Master of Tianyan turned red from the taunts of Little Yan, clearly somewhat ashamed and angry.

Of course, he knew that to gain great rewards, sometimes one must take some risks. But the problem was that the Heavenly Dao Alliance was in such dire straits now that any small mistake could lead to total ruin. How could he dare to take a risk?

Ultimately, the Heavenly Dao Alliance was simply too weak to withstand any risks.

Fortunately, at this moment.

The watch of the Taoist Master of Tianyan suddenly vibrated.

He raised his wrist to see the micro-crystal screen of the watch displaying ”You have a new unread message.”

Upon clicking it open with a thought, he found it was indeed a message from a mysterious contact, reminding him that the agreed-upon Honorable Guest would arrive in one incense stick’s time, asking him to prepare for the reception.

His expression became serious, and his eyes turned exceptionally solemn: ”The turning point in the fate of our Heavenly Dao Alliance has finally arrived.”

With that, he put away the Tianyan Primordial Mirror, flashed out of the chamber, and began gathering people to prepare for the reception of the Honorable Guest.

He came to Wuxiang City this time, of course, not only bringing Youzong and Xuan Ying, this Senior Brother and Little Sister duo, but also two Great Luo Golden Immortal elders among the ”Twelve Golden Immortals” of the Heavenly Dao Alliance, both of them were influential figures in the Dao Alliance.

These two elders had been in seclusion until now, and only came out one after another when the Taoist Master of Tianyan summoned them.

So, the five of them waited quietly in the small courtyard.

After one incense stick of time.

The side hall of the small courtyard where the Taoist Master of Tianyan resided welcomed the legendary ”Honorable Guest.”

”Honored Hongzhen, as soon as I received your invitation letter, I quickly set out and waited in this Wuxiang Demon City. Waiting like waiting for the moon and stars to finally meet you after twenty years.”

With just one look, the Taoist Master of Tianyan recognized the Taoist Master Taichu and enthusiastically greeted him, his overflowing excitement evident.

Heavens knew, this short incense-stick time felt more tormenting than the past twenty years.

He truly had waited too long for this day~

”Brother Tianyan, we are both Taoist Masters, no need for formalities.” Taoist Master Taichu, somewhat overwhelmed by his enthusiasm, quickly soothed him with a gentle voice, exchanging pleasantries with him.

On the surface, he appeared calm, but in his heart, he couldn’t stop cursing Wang Shouzhe over and over.

”That brat Shouzhe, you said you would take me to meet an important person, how come it’s the Alliance Hierarch of the Heavenly Dao?” Taoist Master Taichu questioned through transmitted thought.

”In response to the senior, the Alliance Hierarch of the Heavenly Dao certainly counts as an important person.” Wang Shouzhe responded through transmitted thought, sounding very respectful, ”Did you want the important person to be the Lord of the Underworld Hall and the Demon Lord of Ten Thousand Demons? Or perhaps... the Blissful Master?”

Taoist Master Taichu was slightly choked, almost failed to maintain his expression.

Is this what he asked?

He’d have to be mad to meet with the Blissful Master~!

”I asked why we are meeting the Taoist Master of Tianyan? How did you arrange to meet him? Why was I not informed at all?” He transmitted angrily.

”Actually, before we came to the Southern Blaze Divine Continent, I had already arranged the meeting for you, lest we miss this opportunity due to communication issues.” Wang Shouzhe calmly transmitted back, sounding very considerate of the senior.

Thank you so much for thinking everything through for me~

Master Taichu cursed inwardly and then suddenly thought of another possibility, which made him a bit anxious: ”Wait, you didn’t also arrange a meeting with the Blissful Master, did you?”

”If the senior wishes to meet the Blissful Master, I can also arrange it for you.” Wang Shouzhe replied with a smile, his demeanor still very respectful.

Hearing this, Master Taichu’s face turned even darker.

Would you actually do that, young Shouzhe? Aren’t you afraid I would be killed by the Blissful Master and her followers?

While Taoist Master Taichu and Wang Shouzhe had a ”heated” conversation through transmitted thought, outwardly they did not forget to exchange pleasantries with the Taoist Master of Tianyan, maintaining a harmonious atmosphere.

However, standing behind the Taoist Master of Tianyan, Senior Brother Youzong and Little Sister Xuan Ying, seeing Wang Shouzhe and Liu Ruolan, were filled with uncertainty and suspicion in their hearts.

After all, during a meeting a few days ago, the two were still disciples of the Purple Cloud Taoist Sect of the North Shu God Continent, how did they become followers of Taoist Master Taichu in the blink of an eye?

What’s going on here?

Both were baffled, wanting very much to ask for clarification, but intimidated by the hierarchy, they couldn’t speak in this situation, and could only put their questions aside for now.

As for Taoist Master Taichu, though he had internally cursed Wang Shouzhe countless times, considering that Wang Shouzhe never acted without preparation, this probably had some intention, so he had to go along with the script.

No choice, he was already on Wang Shouzhe’s ”pirate ship,” and even if he wanted to withdraw now, it was too late.

For now, he could only cooperate and then find a way to figure out what Wang Shouzhe had planned.

After a few pleasantries, the conversation naturally turned to the current plight of the Heavenly Dao Alliance.

”Alas~ our Heavenly Dao Alliance is struggling~”

Talking about this, the Taoist Master of Tianyan was full of complaints.

As the only faction of the righteous path in the Southern Blaze Divine Continent, the Heavenly Dao Alliance is constrained at every turn, barely surviving.

In terms of position from the Void Sea, the Heavenly Dao Alliance is completely trapped in a corner by the Blissful Divine Religion, Ten Thousand Demons City, and the Underworld Hall.

If the Heavenly Dao Alliance wants to trade with the outside world and transport goods to the Dongxia Divine Dynasty, it’s almost impossible not to pass through these Magic Path territory, fraught with danger, let alone the inevitable exploitation.
