Evil Master and Disciple

Ye Feng is a shameless man.

When Qiu Changlin said that he would give him some Confucian talismans to save his life, he immediately asked for more.

This way, I won’t have to worry about any danger in the capital.

Confucianism’s words are as effective as the law. One of its moves is just like the flash in the game, which allows you to appear anywhere in an instant with almost no time difference.

Whenever he encountered an enemy he couldn't defeat, he would activate the summoning talisman, and the next moment the sub-sage Qiu Changlin would appear behind him.

Who can compare with this summoner skill?

Qiu Changlin was speechless when faced with Ye Feng's shameless behavior of asking for money in person.

But in the end, he gave Ye Feng three summoning talismans and three traction talismans.

The summoning talisman is easy to understand. After activating it, Qiu Changlin will immediately use the Confucian method to appear beside Ye Feng.

The traction talisman is also a relatively practical escape talisman.

You can take up to two people with you to escape.

Since these talismans were drawn by Qiu Changlin himself, they all carry his aura.

When the traction talisman was activated, Qiu Changlin would sense it immediately. He would then use his secret technique to pull Ye Feng directly to his side.

Of course, there is a distance limit. It only works in the capital. Qiu Changlin cannot sense it outside the capital.

Ye Feng happily accepted the six talismans.

Just as I was about to say goodbye and leave, something suddenly came to my mind.

I cannot practice Confucian magic, but I can use Confucian talismans.

He had used the magic pen to draw talismans on Xingluo Peak many times before.

The righteous energy and the destiny of all living beings are sealed in the magic pen and the magic inkstone. Drawing talismans only consumes his mental power.

In the past, I drew talismans at will and had not received any systematic teaching or training from Confucian monks.

He felt that he could follow Qiu Changlin to learn the Confucian art of talismans.

For example, the two talismans that Qiu Changlin gave me today, although they have no offensive power, they can save my life at critical moments.

Unlike myself, I used to spend a lot of effort writing so many talismans in Yunhai Sect, but they were all about thunder and lightning, heavenly fire and the like. They were so uncreative.

"Teacher, I'm quite interested in the Confucian art of talismans. Could you teach me a few techniques?"

"You want to learn talismans?"

"Confucian talismans require a strong sense of righteousness as a medium. You don't have righteousness, so why would you learn talismans?"

"I'm just curious, teacher, please teach me!"

Qiu Changlin waved his hand slightly, and an ancient book suddenly flew up from a bookshelf not far away and landed on the table in front of Ye Feng.

"This is a book on Confucian talismans. Since you are interested in talismans, take it back and read it. Return it to me when you are done."

"Thank you teacher!"

Ye Feng quickly thanked him.

After putting the thick Confucian talisman book in his arms, he left the Sage Building with satisfaction.

He came early today. It was evening and the Hanlin Academy was starting to close.

Ye Feng met Gu Tianshi in the Hanlin Academy. The two hadn't seen each other for several days, and Gu Tianshi insisted on taking Ye Feng out for a drink.

Ye Feng felt that he didn't have anything to do, so he went there happily.

The only drawback was that because of the last Yun Ya Ju incident, Gu Tianshi was scolded by Qiu Changlin, and Gu Tianshi no longer dared to take Ye Feng out for drinks.

The two of them rode in Gu Tianshi's carriage, and after leaving the imperial city, they headed straight for the Tianhong Restaurant where Ye Feng had made a big splash last time.

In order to avoid being recognized by the shopkeeper, Ye Feng even covered his face.

Chu Liunian had just come out of the palace.

Lin Yi got her a gold medal of Prince Ning, allowing her to enter and leave the palace freely.

She often strolled around the imperial city these days.

As soon as I came out, I got the news that Ye Feng and Gu Tianshi from the Hanlin Academy went to Tianhong Restaurant for a drink.

Chu Liunian thought about it. There were less than ten days left before the Lord had an appointment with Ye Feng for a meeting on New Year's Eve. She felt that before the two met, she should go and meet Ye Feng first.

So she took a carriage and went to Tianhong Restaurant.

The sky gradually darkened, and the capital was slowly shrouded and swallowed by darkness.

The Observatory, the tallest building in the capital, stands tall under the night sky like a giant beast in the darkness.

Lin Yi stood on the top of the observatory, holding the Red Scale Sword, and curiously examined the sundial engraved with symbols and star maps.

He asked, "How could the astronomical observatory in the Observatory Tower be targeted by the Demon Cult?"

There was another person beside Lin Yi, who was none other than Taoist Yunxuzi, the Mirror of Astronomy.

Yunxuzi said, “Your Highness may not know that the astronomical instrument here and the stone sundial outside the Meridian Gate were both made many years ago by Confucian sages using jade sundials and crowns.

The stone sundial outside the Meridian Gate is only used to determine the twelve hours of a day, so its workmanship is rather crude.

However, the sundial and corona instrument on the observatory is extremely ingenious, and it contains the spiritual power of the jade sundial and corona.

The jade sundial crown obtained by the Demon Cult was broken into three pieces, but it can be repaired.

The only way to repair it is to use the power of the stars in the gnomon in the observatory.

According to the investigation, the two masters of the Demon Cult last time should be the Holy Lady Lingyin and the Ghost Master Lu Hanya.

They knocked out the astrologer on duty there and activated the sundial and corona instrument in order to repair the broken sundial and corona in their hands.

It was precisely because the Jade Sundial Crown was activated that night that the unusual movements within the Jiaotai Hall were triggered. This allowed us to confirm that the long-missing Jade Sundial Needle had been secretly stored within the Jiaotai Hall.

Lin Yi nodded slowly, looking at the astronomical instrument in front of him, and said, "I didn't expect there would be such a magical thing in the capital."

Yunxuzi smiled and said, "The royal family owns the four seas and rules the nine states, so they naturally possess some magical things.

According to information received by the Si Tianjian, there have been more demonic cultists in the capital in recent days. They haven't given up on repairing the Jade Sundial and Crown, and they may attempt another operation soon. Furthermore, I have already sent someone to secretly store the Jade Sundial Needle in the exact location of the Jiaotai Hall and secretly revealed it to the demonic cult's ghost prince, Lu Hanya.

I believe that those people from the Demon Cult will not give up after they know the exact whereabouts of the Jade Crown Needle.

Since that old scoundrel Qiu Changlin has been preventing Your Majesty from removing the Jade Coronet Needle from the Jiaotai Hall, we will use the Demon Cult's hand. Even if Qiu Changlin and the other sub-sages of Confucianism strongly oppose it, to ensure the safety of the national seals in the Jiaotai Hall, we will have no choice but to remove the Jade Coronet Needle and find a safe place to properly store it."

Lin Yi frowned slightly and said, "It's not easy to get the skin of a tiger. Those people in the Demon Sect are all extremely vicious and powerful. If they steal the Jade Crown Needle, what will we do?"

Yunxuzi smiled and said, "Don't worry, Your Highness. Confucianism is practically invincible in the capital. Even if the Demon Cult dispatched powerful warriors from the Heaven's End Realm, it would be difficult to fight against the six Confucian sub-sages in the capital.

Besides, there are also people of the Lord among the Demon Cult. If the Jade Crown Needle falls into the hands of the Demon Cult, it will be no different from falling into our hands. In the end, it will all fall into the hands of the Lord."
