The Otherworldly God

Bai Zhi never thought that they would be targeted to this extent, and she also knew Le Zheng's rules very well. If she failed to choose a master this year, Le Zheng Yuhua would really have no future in becoming Le Zheng Taoist, and Le Zheng Qiming and Le Zheng Shuiling would also follow him.

From what they said, it seemed that they had not given up the idea of ​​becoming Taoists. Bai Zhi was a little worried that they were going astray.

So, when Bai Zhi heard Le Zheng Shui Ling say that she wanted to find another way out, she couldn't help but ask, "How do you want to find another way out?"

"We can go to Huacheng and join the Mu family. It's not far away anyway. Maybe Mr. Mu came back to the martial arts world a few years ago just for today?"

"Nonsense." Bai Zhi hurried to the door to check, and when she was sure that no one was there, she turned around and reminded him, "Just say this to me, but don't say it when you go out. This is a betrayal to your teacher and ancestors, and it's treasonous."

"We have no master to bully, and we have no intention of destroying our ancestors. We are forced to do this."

Le Zheng Shuiling was mumbling in grievance, with a frustrated look on her face, which made Bai Zhi feel distressed.

"Don't worry about whether Master Mu will accept you or not. First of all, you have to give up your title of Le Zheng and become a ronin from now on. You must know how to treat ronin in the Dao League. Don't be tempted by seeing some ronin become famous."

"If we stay in Lezheng, I'm afraid we won't even have a chance to become a Taoist priest. To become a ronin, we don't have to become famous, but we can choose the path we want to take, right?"

After listening to Le Zheng Shui Ling's words, Bai Zhi was silent, because what she said was the truth. Without a family, there was one less layer of protection, but also no more restraint. Becoming a ronin, without the protection of a family, at least you can get freedom.

For them now, even though the Path of a Ronin is difficult to follow, it is better than having no way out in Lezheng.

Bai Zhi silently treated their injuries and did not persuade her or anyone else because she knew that since Le Zheng Shui Ling proposed this path, Le Zheng Yu Hua, who decided to become a Taoist priest, would definitely consider it. Once he made a decision, they would also make a decision.

After leaving Xinglin Hall, Le Zheng Yuhua asked about the ronin again. Although Le Zheng Shuiling waved his hands to indicate that he was just saying that out of anger and didn't mean that, he still patiently explained to him.

The Taoists of the Dao League are almost all family-based, and there are countless families of all sizes. These families are affiliated with the Dao League, and while being protected by the Dao League covenant, they must also fulfill their own responsibilities.

The covenant is the foundation that all the Taoist alliance families must abide by, and only then will each family develop its own rules.

Since many families, especially the larger ones, have their own independent jurisdictions, which are more or less at a certain distance and abide by the principle of non-aggression, it is normal for some families to take private actions, and everyone is tacitly aware of it.

As long as the other party does not have any thoughts or actions that would provoke disputes or harm the interests of others, even the Taoist Alliance will turn a blind eye.

The so-called ronin does not necessarily have no family before. Some become ronin after their family declines, and some give up their family to become ronin. However, to be called a ronin means that they do not have a family.

They are not bound by any family, nor do they belong to any family, and they don't even have to abide by the covenant of the Taoist Alliance.

Failure to comply with the covenant will not necessarily result in punishment by the Taoist Alliance. It depends on which covenant is violated. Most of the time, as long as you still uphold the Taoist position, the Taoist Alliance will not step in to discipline you. This is a certain degree of freedom.

On the contrary, Ronin are not protected by their families or the Dao League, and can easily become isolated and helpless. Therefore, without certain abilities, Ronin will only become a death warrant, which has both advantages and disadvantages.

"Brother Yuhua, to be honest, I don't have the confidence to leave Le Zheng. The few tricks I learned secretly and the ones taught by our ancestors are far from enough for us to make our way in this world. I want to join Mu Lao's family as a ronin, but he has so many talented people under him, how could he be interested in me? I am not a wishful person, nor am I a rebellious person. So... I was just talking in anger, just talking in anger."

"I've been hearing you talk about this Mr. Mu, and I've become somewhat interested. I wonder what kind of person he is?"

"Brother Yuhua, don't you know? He is the most famous person in the Taoist Alliance now. It's a pity that I was born at the wrong time. He and Madam Mu have retired to the mountains. It's not that I was born at the wrong time. I heard that Master Mu has been back for six years, just when we became apprentice Taoists. I don't know if it's God's will."

Seeing Le Zheng Shuiling's longing face, Le Zheng Yuhua also became more interested in this Mr. Mu.

"Really? Back in action? Then we can really meet if there's a chance."

Hearing what Le Zheng Yuhua said, Le Zheng Shuiling became even more excited.

"Together, we must see it. If you have better eyesight, you can see this painted city even from the city gate. Unfortunately, I can't see it."

"Painted City? Is that where Mr. Mu lives?"

"It's so strange, Brother Yuhua seems to know nothing."

"Who is as good as you and knows everything?"

“I’m well-informed.”

"So what you mean is that Brother Yuhua is short-sighted?"

"I didn't say that, Qi Ming. How can you say that Brother Yu Hua is short-sighted?"

"Don't push me, you said that."

"When did I say that?" Le Zheng Shui Ling thought about it and felt that he was indeed a little short-sighted, but he was Le Zheng Yuhua, so he definitely couldn't be described like that, so she changed her words: "Brother Yuhua, this is not called short-sightedness, but... but..."

She was trying hard to organize her words. Le Zheng Yuhua couldn't help but speak to stop her, but she just said, "He seems to be from another world, so he doesn't understand our affairs. Yes, that's right, that's it."

Although she found an excuse for herself, she didn't expect that what she said casually was really right. Le Zheng Yuhua had to turn around and couldn't help but smile slightly.

"I didn't expect that she would accidentally hit the nail on the head. For so many years, I haven't taken the time to understand the world properly. It seems that this is not going to work."

Le Zheng Shuiling thought that her words made Le Zheng Yuhua unhappy, so she quickly admitted her mistake. Le Zheng Yuhua did not stop either, and they looked at each other.

Le Zheng Shui Ling looked at Le Zheng Qi Ming with a look of “what should I do?” in her eyes and asked for help.

"Brother Yuhua gets along well with the two of us. He's not as nosy as you, who wants to hear everything. He doesn't like reading historical books like me. It's normal for him to not know what's going on in the world in this Jimen Pass. Anyway, if he asks about it in the future, we will answer it if we know it. Don't say nonsense that makes him uncomfortable."

"Hmm... that's not right. How can you put all the blame on me? You were the first to say the words short-sighted, and you took the opportunity to say good things about me. Are you not good? Are you not good?"

When Le Zheng Qiming saw that the truth was revealed and that Le Zheng Shuiling's aggressive look was about to eat him up, he quickly directed his attention to Le Zheng Yuhua.

"Brother Yuhua must still be angry. Look, he left without waiting for us. He's really...far away."

Le Zheng Shuiling took a quick look and saw that Le Zheng Yuhua had really left without waiting for them, so she let him go for the time being and went after Le Zheng Yuhua.

"Brother Yuhua, wait for me."
