158: Old Taoist Priest: My stepson has become a zombie. Can he sing, dance, rap, or play basketball?
Ice City is beautiful!
Hot air balloons, hovercrafts, large black horses with wings...
Taking photos with reindeer, snow falling from the heads of Siberian tigers.
Everyone was having a blast.
Uncle Yang, looking rather miserable, brought the army to clean up.
Three days later...
“Let’s go, a trip to the Capital!”
Uncle Yang returned, dusty from his travels.
And then, dusty from their travels, he led everyone away.
Magic City.
Black List Number One: “...”
Damn it, where is he?
I actually missed!
Employer, where did you go?
Why haven’t you contacted me all these days?
You didn’t offend Zhou Yang and get offed, did you?
Black List Number One: Sob, sob, sob!
Did you ever consider my feelings?
They arrived in the Capital.
Shen Xueling contacted Elder Shen, and then they made their way to a secret base, where they found Elder Shen.
Elder Shen led them to a conference room.
In the conference room, there were over a hundred people.
Everyone was discussing animatedly, though it was unclear what they were talking about.
“Hello, Elder Shen!”
Seeing Elder Shen enter, everyone quickly greeted him.
“No need to be so formal; we’ll talk once everyone has arrived!”
Elder Shen smiled.
Many people looked towards Uncle Yang.
Yang Dianfeng!
After more than twenty years, has he returned?
“I hope this Old Daoist isn’t late?”
A cheerful voice came from the entrance, and an Old Daoist with a youthful face and hair as white as snow walked in.
“Elder Shen, long time no see!”
The Old Daoist greeted Elder Shen.
“Old Heavenly Master, you’ve finally decided to come down the mountain!”
Elder Shen smiled.
Old Heavenly Master Zhang smiled slightly, “How could I not come down the mountain for such an important matter?”
“Hello, Old Heavenly Master!”
Everyone quickly called out.
“Father!”
Zhang Xiao’s eyes lit up as he called out.
Many people glanced at Zhang Xiao.
Is this the Little Celestial Master of Dragon Tiger Mountain?
“You foolish son, you’re here too!”
Old Heavenly Master Zhang nodded at Zhang Xiao, then looked at Yang Dianfeng, “You’ve arrived?”
“Yes, I have!”
Uncle Yang nodded lightly.
“I heard you annihilated the Xuanming Sect?”
Old Heavenly Master Zhang scrutinized Uncle Yang, then suddenly paused, “No, what exactly are you now?”
“At least I’m not something you, Old Fart, gave birth to!”
Uncle Yang snorted softly.
“You’re my son, what’s wrong with me caring about you?”
Old Heavenly Master Zhang smiled slightly, “Good boy, stop being so tsundere.”
Uncle Yang’s face darkened, “You’re the tsundere, your whole family is tsundere! You’re my Stepfather!”
“I received all your things, I know you have me, your father, in your heart!”
“So stop pretending!”
Old Heavenly Master Zhang said with a smile.
Uncle Yang awkwardly turned his head away, “Those were all things I didn’t need, things I didn’t care for!”
Old Heavenly Master Zhang shrugged, sniffed, “Good boy, stop messing around. By the way, what exactly is going on with you now?”
“You seem to have Corpse Qi on you?”
Old Heavenly Master Zhang stared at Uncle Yang.
“I’ve become a zombie!”
Uncle Yang said calmly, “What, do you want to slay demons and vanquish devils?”
The Old Heavenly Master was stunned.
Many people present were also dumbfounded.
What the heck?
Yang Dianfeng became a zombie?
No, is your family’s zombie like this?
The Old Heavenly Master grabbed Uncle Yang’s wrist, took off his glasses, and examined him.
“Jiang Chen?”
The Old Heavenly Master shivered, “You’ve become a descendant of Jiang Chen? Do you drink blood?”
“I’m a mutated one, I don’t drink blood!”
Uncle Yang shook his head.
“Dragon Tiger Mountain’s ancestral teachings...”
Old Heavenly Master Zhang released his hand, “If you encounter the Zombie King Jiang Chen... just run away!”
Everyone: “...”
“I’ll go back to Longhu Mountain (Dragon Tiger Mountain another day, and I’ll study you!”
Old Heavenly Master Zhang said, “You’re a bit strange!”
“No need!”
Uncle Yang shook his head, “I can jump and run, eat and drink, just like a normal person.”
“Tsk tsk tsk, my son has become a zombie.”
Old Heavenly Master Zhang pulled out a notebook and wrote down a sentence.
“What are you doing?”
Uncle Yang asked.
“When I get old, I’ll publish an autobiography.”
“I’m just noting down many things beforehand!”
“Otherwise, this Old Daoist is afraid that if too much time passes, what if I get Alzheimer’s?”
Old Heavenly Master Zhang said casually.
Uncle Yang: “...”
Alright, an autobiography.
You must write down the story of how you stole my mother.
Old Heavenly Master... Stepfather!
You live life to the fullest!
One step at a time, you’ve learned from Cao Cao.
“Can jump and run...”
The Old Heavenly Master looked at Uncle Yang, “Can you wear overalls? Can you sing? Can you rap? Can you play basketball?”
Uncle Yang’s face twitched, “You should watch fewer young idols!”
Brother Kun will probably be popular for a few more years.
“You arrived quite quickly!”
Suddenly, a voice came, and a man in his sixties strode in with his head held high.
“Hello, Number Zero!”
Everyone saluted simultaneously.
Zhou Yang and the others swallowed hard.
This is our Number Zero!
The one we often see on TV!
I heard that the US has been having alien troubles recently?
It’s hard to tell if it’s true or false, but perhaps he would know.
“Elder Shen, your nephew is late!”
Number Zero said with a smile.
“You’re too polite!”
Elder Shen smiled.
“Old Heavenly Master, long time no see!”
He patted the Old Heavenly Master’s shoulder, then looked at Uncle Yang, “Dianfeng, you’re back!”
“Yes, I’m back!”
Uncle Yang was very well-behaved.
“Take a seat!”
Number Zero waved his hand.
Everyone took their seats.
Number Zero looked at Zhou Yang.
“Everyone, let me introduce...”
“Yang Dianfeng, no need to say much about him!”
“Our Xia Country’s Special Incident Joint... that agency, the Dragon Group, I don’t think many people remember that name, do they?”
Number Zero laughed heartily, “Yang Dianfeng, Deputy Director of the General Bureau!”
Elder Shen smiled calmly.
Zhou Yang and Lin Feng gasped.
Holy crap!
Uncle Yang is the Deputy Director?
Our direct superior?
Uncle Yang’s identity is indeed awesome!
Zhou Yang nodded slightly.
Hmm, Deputy Director... and a substitute!
Uncle Yang, always the second-in-command!
“This is Zhou Yang!”
“The current Group Leader of the Magic City Dragon Group!”
Number Zero introduced him.
The others all looked at Zhou Yang.
They remembered that the Group Leader in Magic City was Zheng Yuan.
Zheng Yuan, what happened to you?
Did this guy use his connections and kick you out?
Zheng Yuan: “...”
Don’t look at me, I’m nothing!
Holding the position of Deputy Group Leader, but doing the work of a Group Leader.
However, his rank was promoted.
A demotion on the surface, a promotion in secret.
I’m doing quite well.
“Everyone here is from the Dragon Group, so this Old Man will keep it brief.”
Number Zero held up a finger, “You are all pillars of the nation, alright, summary concluded!”
Zhou Yang and the others: “...”
Briefly speaking, he really did speak briefly!
You should learn from the school principals; they say they’ll speak briefly, and an hour passes by.
“I called you all here today because there’s an important matter we need to discuss together.”
Number Zero said, looking at the Old Heavenly Master.
The Old Heavenly Master nodded and stood up, “In about ten days... the first Spiritual Energy Tide will arrive!”
Everyone was stunned.
Is it finally coming?
“At that time, the Spiritual Energy of heaven and earth will multiply, and all sorts of demons, monsters, and ghosts will make their appearance.”
The Old Heavenly Master said calmly, “The Spiritual Energy Tide has both good and bad aspects.”
“The good news is that many people will benefit, and even sick people might recover directly.”
“The bad news is... many animals might turn into spirits!”
“Moreover, with the sudden influx of Spiritual Energy, many animals will go mad!”
“And even, there will be eerie resurrections!”
The Old Heavenly Master rubbed his nose, “The entire Dragon Group will be mobilized to Guard their respective cities.”
“Yes!”
Everyone nodded.
After the Old Heavenly Master sat down, Number Zero tapped the table.
“The important thing is...”
“This matter, does it need to be made public or not?”
“Let’s all discuss our opinions!”
