In a food stall restaurant in Shanghai that is open at night, even though it is late at night, there are still many night owls gathering together to drink and eat meat.
In the spacious restaurant, Shen Yao and Chen Nansheng sat at the wooden table and ordered some peanuts, edamame, shrimps and other seafood, as well as beer, and chatted while eating.
"It's delicious. If you don't have enough, I'll order more. Thanks to you this time. Otherwise, I really wouldn't be able to find that old guy."
Shen Yao smiled and pushed a sea crab next to Chen Nansheng.
"I also discovered it by accident. By the way, your kung fu seems to be from the Taoist sect. Which Taoist sect are you from?"
Chen Nansheng dipped the peeled prawns in the sauce, stuffed them into his mouth, and asked bulgingly.
The traces of Taoism can be seen in his fight with Shen Yao and the scene of the battle just now. Even though Shen Yao has taken other paths and gained his own understanding, the foundation has not changed. It is still the root of Taoism.
This also made him very curious. Which Taoist lineage produced such a powerful master? He had never heard of it.
"Qingyun Mountain lineage."
Shen Yao said calmly.
"Which lineage are you from Qingyun? I heard from my master that the Taoist master's token of the Taoist sect is in the hands of people of your lineage. It's not long before the Taoist sect conference. According to the rules, it should be the senior brothers of your generation who will participate. Let’s have a Dao sect competition! Who is it? Is his strength stronger than yours?"
Chen Nansheng seemed to know a lot. After confirming that Shen Yao was from the Qingyun Mountain lineage, he suddenly became interested.
"Far away in the horizon, yet so close."
Shen Yao smiled and said.
"No! Are you going? If that's the case, you have to pay attention. I heard that the sect masters of your lineage suppressed the other lines of the Taoist sect quite miserably in the past. They will definitely target you. Of course, I am definitely not I will challenge you, a pervert."
"Furthermore, I heard from my master that there is no harmony within the Taoist sect now. Some old guys use their own force and are very defensive. They like to deliberately bully the juniors and leave a shadow on the other party's heart, thus affecting their future promotion."
Chen Nansheng looked at Shen Yao in surprise and gave a kind reminder.
"Really? If we really meet those old guys, it's not certain who will teach whom a lesson. Do you know what lineage the Taoist sect has now?"
Shen Yao asked curiously.
He feels like he is a bit lonely in this lineage!
The uncle devoted himself to pursuing martial arts and didn't care about anything. He even gave him the Tao Master's token. The mountain gate is probably a weed now. I don't know what it has become now.
The master is pursuing medical knowledge, and he is considered the only one in this generation.
He is completely in the dark about Taoist matters and has no understanding at all.
Longhu Mountain is considered a relatively prosperous branch of the Taoist sect. It has many disciples and a strong reputation. Many of its disciples are now well-known.
At least he knows more about Dao Sect than he does.
"With our Longhu Mountain, Qiyun Mountain, Wudang Mountain, Qingcheng Mountain, Kongtong Mountain, etc., there are more than ten meridians, but the most prosperous one now is only the five meridians..."
Chen Nansheng told Shen Yao about the current situation of the Taoist sect.
"I heard from Master that this Taoist sect conference is very different. Some people who did not originally belong to the Taoist sect have joined the Taoist sect in name only, hoping to become Taoist masters and gain power."
"Let's go to Zhongnan Mountain together then."
Chen Nansheng revealed a lot of news for Shen Yao.
This makes Shen Yao feel that this Dao Sect Conference may not be simple, and it may have something to do with the great changes in the world. But one thing is certain, becoming a Dao Master, the competition will be extremely fierce.
This trip will definitely not be peaceful.
"OK."
Shen Yao nodded.
After the two of them had eaten, it was already three o'clock in the morning.
After returning to the villa, it was already around 3:30.
"who?"
Perhaps hearing some movement, Mu Qingmei woke up, immediately wrapped herself in the quilt tightly, and asked cautiously.
"Daughter-in-law, it's me."
Shen Yao said softly.
"Why did you come back so late?"
Mu Qingmei didn't seem to be fully awake yet. She rubbed her eyes and picked up the mobile phone on the bedside. She found that it was almost four o'clock and asked very dissatisfiedly.
"I went to take care of some things. I'll explain to you tomorrow. I'll go wash up first."
Shen Yao said and walked into the bathroom.
After a while, he walked out wearing a bathrobe, feeling refreshed all over. Although he had reached his current state and was already spotless, the previous battle still caused some dirt to stick to his clothes and body.
It also gave him the smell of blood.
"Uh? Why don't you sleep anymore?"
Walking out of the bathroom, Shen Yao saw Mu Qingmei turning on the light, flipping through something on her phone, and was completely awake.
Mu Qingmei turned her head and gave Shen Yao a roll of her eyes, as if to say, you are making so much noise, how can I fall asleep?
"What did you deal with?"
Seeing Shen Yao pull the quilt and lie down, Mu Qingmei turned around and stared at Shen Yao and asked.
"Didn't I tell you about Qin Jiu before? I found the old guy behind the scenes. According to him, he lived for six hundred years. He captured many people like Qin Jiu and drained them dry. of blood."
"Those people will definitely not live long, they will all die. Qin Jiu died in my hands, and the Jianghu forces in the cities around Shencheng will definitely be in chaos..."
Shen Yao roughly explained the situation.
"If these things happen, will they have any impact on our Qingmu Pharmaceutical?"
Mu Qingmei frowned and asked after hearing this.
"It shouldn't have any impact! However, the Qingpu Chamber of Commerce should cooperate with us. They have a wide range of ways. If we cooperate, they can help us sell the medicine to more places."
Shen Yao smiled and said.
"You just need to understand the affairs in Jianghu. Don't pay too much attention to them. Leave them all to me. By the way, there is one more thing I want to tell you. I may have to leave for a while in a few days."
"What are you going to do?"
Mu Qingmei's eyes were slightly nervous.
"Participating in the Taoist conference, my master is from the Qingyun Mountain lineage of Taoism. He is irresponsible to my uncle and I don't know where he went and gave me this task."
"This conference is to select the Taoist master, the leader of the Taoist family. The old man wants me to try my best to become the Taoist master..."
Shen Yao didn't hide anything from Mu Qingmei either.
"Will there be any danger?"
Mu Qingmei asked worriedly.
"Probably not! We are going to Zhongnan Mountain. Even if there is any danger, with my strength, few people should be able to kill me now. Besides, even if it is for you, I will survive."
As Shen Yao spoke, the topic changed.
"Go to sleep!"
Mu Qingmei rolled her eyes at Shen Yao again, turned around, and turned off the light in the bedroom.
"All right!"
Shen Yao closed his eyes, not wanting to disturb Mu Qingmei's rest. He was breathing very rhythmically, and his energy and blood were also vibrating in a mysterious rhythm.
Treat practice as sleep.
Although he rested, Mu Qingmei couldn't sleep. For some reason, when he heard that Shen Yao was leaving for a while, he felt a little panicked.
It was as if something most precious was about to leave her.
