Lao Tzu is Ji Gong

"Hey, Uncle Guangliang, did you have to run so fast?!"

"I'm not like you, I don't get hungry if I don't eat for a day!"

The three people's chatter faded into the distance.

At this moment, the real Li Xiuyuan emerged and finally appeared. He was dressed in a jet-black robe, his eyes gleaming with a strange light, his sword-like eyebrows reaching his temples, and a sinister smile curling at the corner of his mouth. His appearance had changed drastically, exuding an unparalleled demonic aura.

Even if he stood right in front of Guangliang, he wouldn't recognize Li Xiuyuan at this moment! His temperament had completely changed, and even his appearance was very different.

Li Xiuyuan, dressed in the same attire as Wutian, smiled and said, "It's time to head to West Lake."

As he spoke, he took to the air and flew towards West Lake.

Having a clone makes things much easier. The main body can handle things outside, while the clone appears before everyone. Li Xiuyuan's clone has a certain level of consciousness.

At the same time, Fahai in Jinshan Temple frowned and said in a deep voice, "Eh! Where did this demon come from, daring to run wild in Jinshan Temple?"

As he spoke, he flew away almost instantly, but by the time he arrived, the place was already deserted.

The Supreme Heavenly Demon True Scripture that Li Xiuyuan cultivates is completely opposed to the Buddhist cultivation methods, which explains why Fahai is so perceptive.

"The water sparkles beautifully on a sunny day, and the mountains are shrouded in mist, making them equally enchanting in the rain. If West Lake were compared to Xi Shi, she would be beautiful whether adorned in light or heavy makeup."

West Lake is like Xi Shi, a legendary beauty, its charm changing with every touch of adornment; its beauty is ever-changing, whether in sunshine, rain, or snow. The beauty of West Lake lies in its shimmering surface in the sunlight and its misty, ethereal appearance in the rain.

Regardless of rain, snow, sunshine, or overcast skies, it can be a beautiful sight under the sunset or in the mist; it has its own unique beauty in spring flowers, autumn moon, summer lotus, and winter snow.

In the warm spring of March, orioles fly and grasses grow; peach blossoms are red and willows are green, and green mountains are verdant; in summer, lotus flowers stretch to the sky; in autumn nights, the Three Pools are bathed in moonlight.

After the winter snow, the red plum blossoms cast sparse shadows; there are also the warbling of orioles in the misty willows, and the pavilions in the drizzling rain. The West Lake has different scenery in the four seasons.

It was the beginning of spring, and the ice and snow on both sides of the lake had not yet melted. Li Xiuyuan stood on the shimmering lake surface, sparkling with golden light.

From afar, West Lake resembles a graceful young woman, charming and alluring.

Chapter 158 Reuniting with Feng Heng and Continuing Their Fate

The lotus flowers along the West Lake were vying for attention, and the sound of water filled the air as a small boat emerged from the trees. At the stern, a woman with long, flowing hair, dressed entirely in white with a gold ribbon tied in her hair, was rowing the boat. The gold ribbon shone brightly against the white snow.

Seeing that the girl's attire was like that of a fairy, Li Xiuyuan couldn't help but take a second look.

The boat slowly approached, and the woman was just in her prime, no more than fifteen or sixteen years old. Her skin was as white as snow, she was incomparably beautiful, and her appearance was so stunning that one could not look directly at her.

The girl rowed the boat over and called out, "Brother Wutian, hurry up and get on the boat!"

As she spoke, she called out in a sweet, almost sniffing voice.

Upon hearing this, Li Xiuyuan's lips curled up, and he chuckled, "Aheng, where's your little Qing sister!"

As she spoke, she leaped onto the small boat. Although ten years had passed, Feng Heng's appearance had not changed much; in fact, she looked even younger.

Upon hearing this, Feng Heng smiled and muttered, "Sister Xiaoqing is complaining that you haven't visited her in ten years, and she's throwing a little tantrum!"

As she spoke, her tone became somewhat resentful, as if she were a young girl who had been abandoned.

Li Xiuyuan laughed when he heard this. He didn't take it to heart. He knew Xiaoqing's personality and thought she wouldn't be too angry. He just needed to coax her a little.

Xiaoqing, this kind of person is stubborn but soft-hearted, a hypocrite.

Li Xiuyuan pondered for a moment, then said, "Oh, so do you resent me or not?"

As he spoke, he casually put his arm around Feng Heng's slender waist, and felt a fragrance waft into his nostrils, so he couldn't help but take a few more breaths.

Upon seeing this, Feng Heng blushed, her little face turning rosy, making one want to take a bite. She said resentfully, "Hmph, of course I resent you. You haven't come to see me for ten years."

However, I rushed over here so I could see you as soon as possible!

As she spoke, the corners of her mouth turned up, revealing a hint of a smile.

Li Xiuyuan said calmly, "Yes, I will keep you company this time."

As he spoke, he gazed at Feng Heng's flushed, intoxicating face...

what!

Feng Heng noticed the large wet patches on her face and seemed a little disgusted, but in reality, she was secretly delighted!

She pressed on, asking, "Is this true?"

She couldn't help but feel happy when she thought that Li Xiuyuan would stay.

Upon hearing this, Li Xiuyuan's lips curled up, and he chuckled, "Of course, when have I ever lied to you?"

He secretly thought to himself that with the 'Divine Demon Clone Technique', he could create two separate beings to cultivate, doubling his speed. If his Buddhist and Taoist clones resided at Lingyin Temple and practiced daily, it wouldn't matter if he wasted a year or two in West Lake.

Most importantly, Li Xiuyuan knew in his heart that the plot of "The Legend of the White Snake" was about to begin, and how could he miss it!

Upon hearing this, Feng Heng's lips curled up, and she replied, "Yes, yes!"

As she spoke, she was overjoyed, for her beloved was right in front of her.

Upon seeing this, Li Xiuyuan smiled slightly and said, "Aheng, you see, it's been so long since we last met. A day apart feels like three autumns. Ten years apart feels like a hundred years!"

We should catch up properly.

……

Woohoo!

"Ah! Brother Wutian, not on this boat on West Lake."

"Don't you think this has a unique charm? Don't worry, I've already blocked the sound, and with my protection, no one will be able to see you and me."

"Woo!"

Ultimately, Feng Heng could not resist Li Xiuyuan, and under these circumstances, the two did not see each other for ten years.

It's like adding fuel to the fire, making it even worse.

In the end, Feng Heng could no longer hold on.

Li Xiuyuan's lips curled up in a smile as he looked at the white fluid glistening around Feng Heng's mouth, and he was completely satisfied.

Feng Heng said resentfully, "Hmph, it's all your fault for making me look bad in the freezing cold."

As she spoke, she took out a silk handkerchief from her bosom and wiped her mouth clean.

Upon hearing this, Li Xiuyuan laughed and said, "Who was it that said just now, 'Hurry, hurry, I'm going to die...'"

Feng Heng felt extremely embarrassed upon hearing this and said with a coquettish sniff, "Hmph, you still dare to say that."

Upon seeing this, Li Xiuyuan laughed heartily. After the two of them tidied their clothes, they prepared to head to where Xiaoqing and Feng Heng were going.

It's worth mentioning that Feng Heng had already reached the Golden Core stage of cultivation; otherwise, how could he have withstood the torment of his mission?

Xiaoqing has also reached the Earth Immortal level. After ten years of cultivating the Supreme Heavenly Demon Scripture, she is by no means much inferior to Bai Suzhen in the original story.

During these ten years, just like in the original story, he led thousands of aquatic creatures and became a dominant force in West Lake.

Before long, the two arrived at a small island in the lake. This was Feng Heng's temporary residence, as her cultivation was still shallow and she could not stay at the bottom of the lake for long.

Therefore, even though he had a mansion in West Lake, Feng Heng still lived there.

Li Xiuyuan, relying on the Supreme Heavenly Demon True Scripture, had already sent a message to two people, asking them to send someone to pick him up. The West Lake here is many times larger than the West Lake on Earth.

Otherwise, how could so many aquatic creatures live there? You must understand that these thousands of aquatic creatures refer to those intelligent water spirits, not just the creatures at the bottom of the water.

In this dog-eat-dog world, those who are too useless will be directly treated as food. For example, those aquatic animals that have not developed intelligence are simply food for countless aquatic creatures.

Li Xiuyuan looked at the house where Feng Heng lived. It wasn't luxurious at all. Although it was very simple, just a small wooden house, it was fully furnished, and the kitchen was especially well-stocked with all kinds of ingredients.

The pot was as big as a room, and because Feng Heng practiced the Supreme Heavenly Demon Scripture, she was much faster at everything she did.

It must have been prepared for Xiaoqing, who is a foodie. After all, with her big appetite, once she starts eating Feng Heng's food, she just can't stop.

Chapter 159 The Stubborn but Soft-Hearted Little Qing

Fortunately, there are many large aquatic animals in West Lake. Just catching one is enough for two people to have a full meal.

Xiaoqing doesn't eat every day, only once every few weeks, when she's craving something. Feng Heng always has to work the hardest when cooking, and she's quite speechless about this gluttonous snake.

After ten years of getting to know each other, Feng Heng was no longer afraid of Xiao Qing's true form as before. Moreover, since Feng Heng had only spent time with Xiao Qing for the past ten years, the two were as close as sisters.

Aside from these, Feng Heng focused on cultivating the Supreme Heavenly Demon True Scripture. While her talent might be considered exceptional in martial arts novels, it was still far from sufficient for the path of cultivation!

Sure enough, it took Feng Heng ten years to reach the Golden Core stage. Keep in mind that she was practicing the Supreme Heavenly Demon Scripture, which is rare even in the Three Realms, and she also had Xiao Qing's guidance, yet she was still so slow.

Most importantly, Xiaoqing has a lot of resources to help her. I'm afraid that the highest level Feng Heng can reach in his entire life is only the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm!

Of course, unless an unexpected situation occurs, such as Li Xiuyuan being willing to exchange a certain bloodline for her, although Li Xiuyuan has lived for ten years, he doesn't have many merit points or sin points.

After thinking about this, Li Xiuyuan checked his personal panel, realizing it had been a long time since he had looked at it.
