Chapter 19: The Reappearance of the Evil Dao Cultivator
"The temple's building is very old, made of earth and brick, and has been weathered by wind and rain for many years without careful maintenance. It has already rotted internally and is completely unusable. It must be demolished and rebuilt."
Outside the dilapidated Taoist temple on Mount Qi Yun, a middle-aged dark-skinned man inspected the temple and said seriously to Jiang Le beside him.
The man's surname is Liu, a senior designer at Gu Feng Architectural Design Company. With over a decade of work experience, he has gained in-depth insights into various architectural styles. This time, Jiang Le splurged a large sum of money, prompting the currently underperforming Gu Feng Architectural Design Company to decide to deploy this expert in traditional architecture himself.
Jiang Le smiled and replied: "As for architecture, I'm an outsider. Master Liu, you think what's feasible is how to do it."
Liu Shifu nodded and said, "That's good. Although I've never built a Taoist temple before, I've studied some of them. I'll make full use of the terrain here to build all the foundations you specified, and I'm sure you'll feel that it's worth every penny."
"Haha, Liu Shifu, just go ahead with the construction, I'm not short of money."
Watching the dilapidated Taoist temple being demolished, then truckloads of debris being hauled away, and truckloads of building materials being brought in, Jiang Le couldn't help but feel a surge of emotions.
The sect's base will be established soon, and the Pure Yang Sect will surely grow stronger in the future. In this era of decline, I must create a sacred place for cultivation.
After watching for a while, Jiang Le felt that he had no great use in staying, so he said goodbye to Liu Shifu and left Qiyun Mountain.
Jiang Le had just returned to Antique Street when he was suddenly stopped by Zhang Guixin, the principal of San Zhong Middle School.
Jiang Le couldn't help but laugh and said, "I'm telling you, Principal, even if I haven't been to school for a while, do you need to block me here? Are you so free?"
Zhang Guixin said irritably: "As long as the chain doesn't fall off too much during the exam, I won't worry about you. I have something to ask you."
Jiang Le hummed and curiously asked: "What's up?"
Zhang Guixin's face was grave: "Something has happened at the Wei household."
Jiang Le's eyebrows moved slightly.
Zhang Guixin continued: "The two big stone lions in front of the Wei family's gate suddenly exploded."
Jiang Le let out a cry, then his eyes flashed with surprise and he exclaimed: "So that's what this is about! The sorcerer from the Wei family has struck again? Tsk tsk, what did the Wei family do to offend someone? This is a rhythm of not stopping until one side dies!"
Zhang Guixin glared and said: "I came to find you because I need your help, not to listen to your idle chatter."
Jiang Le smiled slightly, with a thoughtful expression on his face.
After resolving the crisis of the Three Talents Evil Array for the Wei family, Master Mao Xiaofang said that this behavior of intervening in others' spellcasting would lead to karmic consequences. This time, this sorcerer has made a move again, and it's likely not just to cause trouble for the Wei family, but also to test himself.
It seems this feud can't be avoided after all.
In that case, let's take action and settle this. This kind of evil sorcerer who harms people is also an object to be eliminated by true cultivators.
"Okay, I'll go take a look."
Jiang Le arrived at the Wei family in Bailu Town again, only to find that the two stone lions guarding the town gate outside the Wei family's house had turned into scattered stones all over the ground.
It may be that this matter was too strange, and the Wei family did not take action to clean up the giant stone lion, but instead left it in its original place.
Jiang Le got off the car and immediately furrowed his brow.
There is a strong evil aura here, this evil breath makes me extremely disgusted.
After looking around, I found that the source of the evil spirit was the stones all over the ground.
Jiang Le walked forward and examined it, only to discover that on the broken stone lion's body, there were some dark green stains, emitting a foul odor.
The evil spirit he disliked was also a faintly emitted dark green color.
"This thing looks like a kind of corpse rot described by the master, and then it was transformed into a kind of evil object with evil methods."
"This bloody practitioner is really disgusting."
Jiang Le hastily retreated from the scattered gravel on the ground.
Zhang Guixin didn't know what the dark green stuff on the stone was, but he could tell it wasn't anything good. He dodged and walked to Jiang Le's side, hastily asking: "Xiao Le, did you see anything?"
"Even if I told you, you wouldn't understand. The dark green stuff on this stone is harmful to humans and can't be kept for long. Have someone find some gasoline to burn it thoroughly, then transport it far away and bury it in a deserted place."
Seeing Jiang Le's serious tone, Zhang Guixin hastily nodded, while feeling a chill in his heart. Fortunately, the people from the Wei family were clever and didn't let anyone touch it, otherwise there might be trouble.
At this moment, the Wei family's gate was wide open, and a group of people came out to greet them. The leader was none other than Wei Guodong, the head of the Wei family. His face was rosy, his eyes were sharp, and he walked with a strong stride, no longer showing any signs of illness. When he saw Jiang Le, he burst into loud laughter.
"Haha, little friend is a rare guest, I haven't gone far to welcome you, I still hope to see your understanding."
Jiang Le took a glance at Wei Guodong, secretly admiring him. Indeed, as the head of the family, his calm demeanor in the face of unknown threats was undoubtedly honed from countless experiences.
Compared to Wei Guo Dong, the Wei Jia Ming family of four following behind him were much worse off, each of them showing varying degrees of tension and fear on their faces.
Especially Wei Fengbing, that big stone lion was his masterpiece, he didn't expect it to explode mysteriously now, and it scared him badly.
"Isn't the old man worried at all? The situation at your house is a bit tricky now." Jiang Le said with a smile.
Wei Guodong said calmly: "The ghosts and monsters are just for show, they can't scare people away. And since you've come, I don't need to worry anymore."
Jiang Leqian smiled lightly: "Old master is overpraising me, I'm just a novice in this field, I don't deserve your trust."
"Hehe, speaking like that isn't hospitality, little friend come in and speak slowly." Wei Guodong said with a smile.
Entering the Wei mansion's main hall, a servant presented tea and water.
Jiang Le took a sip and saw everyone staring at him, couldn't help but laugh: "What are you all looking at me for?"
"Master Tian, our family is in a state of panic over this matter. Can you completely resolve it? Otherwise, we'll have to move away to avoid trouble." Yao Xue said with a worried face.
"Hmph, I've said it before. Even if we die here, the Wei family cannot move out. I don't want to hear this again," Wei Guodong rebuked with a difficult expression.
Moving away is just evading and admitting defeat. In a big family like the Wei's, this is shameful. No wonder Wei Guodong was not happy about it.
Yao Xue opened her mouth, smiled wryly and fell silent.
Jiang Le glanced at everyone, put down his teacup, and said: "Actually, things are not that bad. The Nine Palaces Array I set up for the Wei family is just gathering wealth and nobility energy, but the array eye is a hundred-year-old divine image suppression. As long as the Wei family's incense is not extinguished, there is a divine image suppressing the house, ordinary evil spirits absolutely cannot enter the house, so everyone can rest assured to live here."
"Really?" Yao Xue was overjoyed.
Jiang Le nodded and continued: "The only trouble is the evil Taoist behind this matter, this person targeted the Wei family, I believe that if he doesn't achieve his goal, he won't give up easily."
"Wei Guo Dong's eyes flashed and he said: 'Then does young friend have a way to deal with it?'"
"I think this sorcerer also has the intention of luring me out, I interfered with his evil array targeting the Wei family and have already accepted the consequences, so I must understand. Today I will stay at the Wei's house and wait for the appearance of this evil Daoist, to engage in a magical duel with him. If I win, the Wei family will be safe and sound, but if I lose, it will be big trouble."
"Wei Guo Dong said in a low voice: 'Since that's the case, the Wei family will live and die with Xiao You. What do you need, just speak up.'"
