Chapter 33: The Super Great Godly Staff

  Gaoxing was walking happily when he suddenly felt a fierce gust of wind attacking from behind. Gaoxing's body tensed up instantly, and with a swift turn, his right hand, filled with true energy, swung out and caught the object flying towards him.

  His eyes narrowed slightly, a hint of sorrowful smile on his face, but his gaze turned sharp, staring tightly at the smiling Taoist ten meters in front of him. A faint killing aura emanated from his body as he spoke in a low tone, "Sir, are you dissatisfied with the amount of silver I gave?"

  "Gao Gongzi misunderstood." The Taoist slowly walked towards Gao Xing, his smile still warm and gentle, seemingly unaware of the killing intent on Gao Xing's body.

  "Do you know me? What brings you here?" His eyes gleamed with excitement, almost narrowing into a thin slit. The Longevity True Qi inside his body flowed rapidly, circulating throughout his entire being.

  In front of this Taoist, excitement filled his heart with vigilance and surprise. The silver he had previously thrown out was returned by the Taoist at an even faster speed. Excitement carefully caught it, only to discover that there wasn't much force behind it, and even if he hadn't caught it, the silver wouldn't have hit him. However, the silver's high-speed piercing through the air caused a violent disturbance in the airflow, revealing the great force contained within it, as well as the exceptional skill of the person who had thrown it.

  At first glance, the Taoist seemed ordinary except for his handsome appearance. However, upon closer inspection, he was like a gentle spring breeze - warm, elusive, and impossible to grasp or see through.

  "Gao Gongzi, I'm not speaking nonsense. I fear that within the month, your esteemed father will be met with great disaster!" The Taoist priest's expression was resolute, his eyes warm and sincere.

  His heart skipped a beat with excitement, but his face remained unchanged. He forced a smile and said, "Oh? I'm not aware of any misfortune befalling my father. Please do tell."

  "You should have guessed it!" The Taoist smiled strangely and said, "Since you asked, I dare not decline. Let me calculate it." The Taoist waved his sleeve, closed his eyes, muttered to himself, and with his other hand free, he pinched his fingers, his eyebrows sometimes frowning and sometimes relaxing.

  At this moment, he was no longer in a hurry. Whether the Taoist priest was a swindler or not, judging from his skillful move of throwing back the silver, he was indeed a man with special skills.

  Delighted to have encountered the strongest opponent in three months, Xiang Mouhe. Xiang Mouhe was indeed strong, born with great strength, making his flying darts exceptional and accurate. All of Xiang Mouhe's combat skills were acquired from the battlefield, although it would be somewhat difficult for Gaoxing to defeat him fairly at this time, but to kill him wouldn't require much effort.

  But the person in front of him was different, with a remarkably high level of control over his powers. Even though Gao Yang had only cultivated the "Longevity Technique" to the third stage, he couldn't help but be amazed. As for this person's identity and intentions, Gao Yang became increasingly curious.

  A moment later, the Taoist suddenly opened his eyes, and two rays of light shot out from them, forcing Gao Xing to slightly avert his gaze.

  "Gao Gongzi, in a few days, someone from the north will come, and your respected father will be in trouble!" The Taoist said in a low voice.

  "The North?" He was taken aback with excitement, and suddenly thought of the city of Ye in the north. The scene from history appeared before his eyes, and his face turned somewhat gloomy.

  Soon, the joy calmed down and looked at the Taoist with suspicion. Although the Taoist said the north, he did not say specific things, and it is also possible that it was a guess based on Gao Changgong's situation.

  "Not yet had the pleasure of knowing your esteemed name." Gao Xing's face was calm with a hint of a smile.

  "Does the young master still not believe?" The Taoist shook his head and said a sentence before turning around and slowly leaving. Gao was shocked, but at this time, the soft and ethereal voice of the Taoist came again: "I am Yuan Tiangong, currently staying at the Rugu Guest House."

  "Hum——" A buzzing sound in his excited mind, as if struck by lightning, he was stunned and motionless, staring blankly in the direction where Yuan Tiangang had left, his mind a complete blank, with only the three words "Yuan Tiangang" remaining.

  Yuan Tiangang, even in later generations, is still a household name. He was an astronomer, astrologer and predictor of the early Tang Dynasty, extremely well-versed in the mysteries of the I Ching, and a renowned figure in Taoist circles. His most famous feat was his prophecy regarding Empress Wu Zetian. Both historical records and folk tales abound with stories and legends about him.

  After a long time, I woke up refreshed and looked again. On the street, apart from the crowd of people coming and going, where was Yuan Tianfei's figure?

  Delighted yet somewhat melancholic, he believed more in astrology. Perhaps the folk tales were exaggerated, but can the records in historical books all be false?

  Suddenly, the joyful sound of Yuan Tianpeng's words about the Like Returning Inn echoed in his mind, and his mood improved instantly. Looking at the already darkening sky, he knew that it would be inconvenient to go visit now, and since he had been away from home for a long time, he should first go see his parents to alleviate their worries. With joy, he no longer lingered and set off towards home with incredible speed, like a fleeting shadow, leaving passersby in awe.

  He quickly and happily arrived at the front door of his home, excitedly knocking on it.

  Gao Fu was overjoyed to see him return and exclaimed in surprise: "Young Master, you're back!"

  Just then, Zheng's urgent and excited voice came from afar, "Is Xing'er back? Xing'er, quickly, let Mother take a good look!"

  Before his words had fallen, Gaoxing saw Zhengshi hurrying towards him. Gaoxing's heart warmed up and he also quickly walked towards Zhengshi.

  Zheng held her excited face in both hands, carefully and heavily, her voice choked with some trembling. "It's okay, it's okay! How could your father let you go to the battlefield? It's so dangerous!" Zheng's eyes suddenly turned red, tears welling up, sliding down her somewhat thin and pale cheeks, quickly wetting Xing's collar.

  The dense maternal love made his heart boil with excitement. For this family, for this regained paternal and maternal love, he cherished it extremely, and his determination to protect Zheng Shi and Gao Chang Gong's decision became more resolute, and he became increasingly eager to end this chaotic era.

  Delighted to leave in mid-July, now it's already the end of July, ten days away from home, both Zheng and Gao Changgong are very worried. Seeing Delight return is naturally a great joy, and the whole family has a good talk about their feelings.

  It was already late at night when he returned to his room to rest. Although he still had some worries about Gao Changgong's fate, he didn't want to ruin the good atmosphere of the family reunion, so he didn't mention it.

  After a night of meditation, Gao Xing was refreshed and rejuvenated. He looked even more spirited than before, with an extraordinary aura about him. After breakfast, he bid farewell to Zheng Shi and headed out of the mansion. As the head of the prefecture, Gao Chang had already risen early to attend to his official duties. With military training now on track and Xiao Mohe and Shangshan not abandoning their posts, Gao Xing no longer needed to worry.

  Out of the door, Gaoxing happily walked towards the Ruyi Inn. With the Yangping war coming to an end, Gaoxing also felt much more relaxed, with a warm smile on his face, wearing a white robe that fluttered in the wind, looking elegant and refined. Along the way, countless beautiful girls couldn't help but cast their eyes on him, and some bold ones even threw flirtatious glances at Gaoxing.

  He happily accepted, and even revealed a somewhat flirtatious gaze towards the girls, causing the shy women to blush bright red and dare not look at him, but he just laughed even more radiantly.

  Since he came to this world, he has never been truly relaxed. In his previous life, happy footprints were all over countless countries and continents, having experienced wind and rain for a long time, although he was still a genuine virgin, but he was not a young and inexperienced youth, his psychological defense ability was absolutely strong.

  At this time, use eyes to tease those girls, looking at them with shyness and joy, hiding and flashing beautiful appearance, happy mood is also great.
