Chapter 425 - 382, Arriving at the Mo School
Bai Jin sought out Xin Wenzi, establishing the first Taoist Temple of the Primordial World, the Three Pure Ones Temple, with Bai Jin serving as the inaugural temple master. Originally intending to teach Xin Wenzi the insights of managing the temple, unexpectedly, Xin Wenzi showed no interest in management, preferring instead to dally amidst the mountains and rivers, and practice cultivation away from the worldly dust.
His carefree nature was exactly like that of Laozi: going with the flow. Ultimately, Bai Jin had no choice but to take on three more registered disciples on Li Er’s behalf: Xuan Tai Zi, the Master of Taiching; Xuanyu Zi, the Master of Yuqing; and Xuan Shangzi, the Master of Shangqing. They collectively took charge of the Three Pure Ones Temple, overseeing the Taoist affairs of the Three Realms. The task of passing on the teachings was also entrusted to them.
After entrusting the Three Pure Ones Temple to Xuan Tai Zi, Xuanyu Zi, and Xuan Shangzi, Bai Jin immediately left to set his own strategies into motion, starting with a visit to the Mechanical City of the Mo Family.
Bai Jin, riding on a cloud, descended outside the Mechanical City and stepped towards it.
"Halt!" a booming voice called out above the Mechanical City.
Several figures emerged on the city tower. Click, click, click—the stone slabs on the city wall split open in four directions, revealing four large holes, each emitting a beam of bright light.
Bai Jin stopped beneath the Mechanical City and with a bow, said loudly, "Vice Sect Leader of the Taoist, Confucian, and Legalist Schools, Bai Jin, requests an audience with the Mo Family Master."
A young man in black on the city tower frowned and said, "Vice Sect Leader of the Taoist, Confucian, and Legalist Schools? I’ve never heard of such a person."
A big man beside him laughed heartily and said, "Boy, you’ve got to make your lies more convincing! Since when does one person serve as the Vice Sect Leader of all three schools? I’m guessing you’re a spy sent by the Yin Yang School."
Suddenly, a vast voice echoed between Heaven and Earth: "Please admit the Vice Sect Leader of the Taoist, Confucian, and Legalist Schools into the city!"
Everyone looked up at the sky, surprised by the Mo Family Master’s command, and began murmuring among themselves.
The big man’s laugh froze on his face. Could it be that this Vice Sect Leader really was one person?
