Light Dance Jiajing

Chapter 49 The Great Mage

At night, the great wizard left the Zheng family stronghold, displayed his light body skills, and quickly sneaked into a mountain villa. The guards inside discovered someone sneaking in, and whooshed a flare arrow. The great wizard somersaulted in the air, nimbly avoided the arrow and fell to the ground. He immediately clapped his hands rhythmically a few times. The men in black who were surrounding him heard his signal and put down their weapons one after another.

When the great master arrived at the inner room, the chubby old man came up to him with a smile and said, "Third Dharma Protector, you have worked hard on the journey. Please take a seat."

This great master was actually the Third Dharma Protector of the White Lotus Sect. He nodded and sat down on the chair without any formalities. He drank a sip of tea and said, "Sixth Dharma Protector, how are the preparations going, Young Master?"

The Sixth Guardian said, "Although the young master is young, he is very smart and can understand things very quickly. One month is enough."

The third guardian hummed and said, "Since the arrangement this time was made by the leader, we cannot be careless. I have been carefully preaching in this area, but I didn't expect the dog emperor to believe in magic. He wants to ask for immortals. Let's send the young master to him first. The young master is the eldest prince and should have returned to the East Palace long ago. Then we can send him a few immortals."

The Sixth Dharma Protector said, “When the young master takes over the world, he will respect the White Lotus Sect as the state religion. Haha, by then, the whole world will only respect the Holy Ancestor of the White Lotus, and the true Buddha will rule over the people of the world. The Ming Dynasty will be doomed.

The third guardian asked again: "What has the Jinyiwei done recently?"

The Sixth Guardian drank his tea slowly and said, "According to the news from the palace, no one knows where Zhang Yanqi has gone. The Jinyiwei has been out in full force. They couldn't find the real culprit and were afraid of being convicted, so they found a magician to report back. Who knew that the magician was also amazing? Now the emperor has believed his lies and ordered people to take the first menstrual blood of a virgin girl. He also asked the palace maids to collect dew to make medicine all day long. Haha, now there are complaints in the inner court and many dissatisfactions in the outer court. This has saved us a lot of trouble."

The third guardian said, "The emperor is so incompetent that he is easier to deal with than I thought. The leader asked us to follow the young master into the court. Well, with our abilities, I'm afraid we can become the imperial teacher. But the young master is getting older now. When he becomes more powerful, I'm afraid..."

The Sixth Dharma Protector had always been following Zai Ji. Apart from his relationship with the White Lotus Sect, his own wealth and glory all depended on Zai Ji. If the White Lotus Sect abandoned Zai Ji, all his work over the years would have been in vain. So he hurriedly said, "There is no need to worry about this. The young master has been supported by us since he was young. Under the influence of us day by day, who is more devout in believing in the leader than him? Besides, he has no foundation and is an unfavored prince. Who in the court can look up to him? Who else can he rely on except us?" The Third Dharma Protector thought about it and nodded.

The Sixth Dharma Protector said, "One month is indeed too short a time frame. I wonder if the invitation to the Immortal Platform is going smoothly?"

The third guardian said confidently, "I'm keeping a close eye on him every day, you can rest assured. The spies of the Imperial Guard thought they were hiding very well, but they don't know that we are exactly what we want. When they see the fairy boy coming to the world, they will definitely pass the news back." The sixth guardian also knew that it was a good opportunity to send Zai Ji back while the emperor was a firm believer in gods, and then use the Imperial Guard to cater to the emperor's desire to find the fairy boy. As long as the news was passed back to the palace, Zai Ji would be brought back to the court, so time had to be accelerated. A month was very short and Zai Ji was still a child. He was always afraid of making any mistakes, so he could only try his best now.

The costumes made for Zai Ji were finally finished. The purple robe, the golden belt, and the cloud patterns made of colorful gold silk shone brightly in the sun. A bright pearl on the golden crown ties his hair. Zai Ji is already good-looking. Dressed up like this, he is like a golden boy born into the world. The Sixth Elder said with a smile, "The young master is handsome and has an extraordinary appearance. Who wouldn't be amazed when seeing him?"

Zaiji looked at himself in the mirror, raised his head slightly, curled his lips playfully, and said, "My father has abandoned me for many years. Oh, it took this to see me again. Very good, very good. How can I repay him?"

The Sixth Dharma Protector smiled and said, "Young Master, I, the White Lotus Saint, have your blessing. I will definitely take back everything that is yours."

Zaiji turned around with a smile and said, "Fortunately, I have the blessing of the White Lotus Saint Ancestor, and my adoptive father has given me a second life. When I rule the world in the future, I will ask the whole world to worship the White Lotus Saint Ancestor and make the White Lotus Sect the state religion. Sixth uncle, this state teacher must belong to you!"

The Sixth Dharma Protector's expression remained unchanged, but he was born with a smiling face. When he heard Zaiji's words, his eyes curved. Hearing this, he only said humbly: "It is my duty to protect the young master. I will do my best." Then he asked: "Have you remembered everything I taught you?"

Zai Ji nodded and said, "Remember, I am a star that has descended to earth. Although I have been living in a remote place these years, I have always been blessed by the gods and kept safe. I was taking a nap that day, and I didn't expect the great wizard to ask the gods to bring me here..."

The Sixth Dharma Protector said, "Today we will send the young master to the Zheng Family Stronghold. Don't worry, the place has been properly arranged. The guards of the immortal summoning platform are all ours. The young master will rest there for the next few days. The day to summon the immortal will be in five days."

The platform for summoning the immortals had been built long ago, and the great master's people were still surrounding it like an iron barrel, with only their people being able to enter and exit. There had been no special movements for many days, and it would be a month in five days. Zheng Liu had not dared to act rashly. During the days of investigation, he had already figured out their deployment, and was preparing to go in today to check it out, but he discovered many unusual things. At midnight today, the two patrolling teams appeared again. Usually, at this time, these two teams would be replaced by a group of people on duty and would not go out again. But today, not only these two groups, but a whole group of people were heavily guarded. Just after three quarters after midnight, a sedan chair, under the protection of the great master and several men in black, rushed into the security range of the platform for summoning the immortals at an incredible speed. It was not until the beginning of the morning hour that the great master came out. Zheng Liu thought to himself that it seemed that the secret was in that sedan chair, but it was too far away, and he could only vaguely see a thin figure sitting inside. But what was the secret?
