Chapter 87, Conflict Escalation
The next morning, Bai Jin had just walked out of his palace.
"Not good! Senior brother, it's not good~" A scream came from a distance.
Bai Jin's head trembled, and a feeling of something bad arose in his heart. I'll go! What's wrong? Can't you calm down for a while?!
A auspicious cloud floated over and Shiji stood among the auspicious clouds and said anxiously: "Senior brother, Yun Zhongzi said that the immortal Changer Dingguang stole his rabbit."
Bai Jin said annoyedly: "The immortal Changer Dingguang is a rabbit demon, how could he steal the rabbit?! Did Yun Zhongzi think we were stupid?"
Boom~ A powerful aura rose from the foot of the mountain.
An angry shout rang out: "Yun Zhongzi, don't run away!"
"Misunderstanding! Fellow Taoist, this is all a misunderstanding!" A figure streaked across the sky and fled in a hurry toward Yuqing Peak.
Shi Ji hesitated and asked: "Senior brother, Yun Zhongzi can't beat Chang'er Dingguang Immortal! What should I do now?"
Bai Jin said angrily: "Don't worry, go back to sleep." He turned around and walked into the palace, and the palace gate closed with a bang.
...
"Senior brother, no good! Cihang was attacked and beaten up."
"Senior brother, it's not good! The Spirit Tooth Fairy was attacked and her teeth were pulled out."
"Senior brother, it's not good! The eldest brother beat all the fourteen disciples of the Academic Sect to pieces."
"Senior brother, it's not good! The eldest brother was knocked down by Lan Deng's sneak attack."
...
In the next few days, Shiji kept rushing outside and Bai Jin, conveying bad news. The friction between the two religions continued to form a momentum of water and fire. No matter how hard Bai Jin tried, he could not suppress it at all. What's more, there were Duobao Randeng, who didn't listen to him. The two leaders seemed to have not noticed all this, without any movement.
At noon, Bai Jin sat in the back mountain and sighed, "It's no help, let's break up."
"Senior brother, it's not good!" A hurried scream came again.
Bai Jin trembled all over and subconsciously jumped up.
A green light flew down, turned into a figure of Shiji, and turned to look at Bai Jin.
Shiji said anxiously: "Senior Brother..."
Bai Jin reached out and pushed his hand, interrupted and said, "Wait a minute, let me prepare for it." He took a few deep breaths and nodded and said, "Tell me! What happened again?"
"Some disciples of the Ancestral Sect and Jie Sect are fighting below! Senior Brother Duobao, Senior Sister Wudang, and Uncle Randeng are all over."
Bai Jin subconsciously covered his chest, staggered back two steps, and murmured in despair: "The melee, the melee has begun?" He immediately soared into the air and flew towards the distance.
Shi Ji hurriedly shouted: "Senior Brother, you flew in the wrong direction, it's this."
Bai Jin came to Taiqing Peak with clouds and mist all the way, lowered the clouds and bowed respectfully and said, "Disciple, please see Master!"
A little golden horned Taoist boy walked out of Taiqing Palace and said solemnly: "Senior Brother, the master will let you in."
"It's a labor!"
Bai Jin stood up and walked towards Taiqing Palace, entered the Taoist Palace and walked to a cushion. He knelt down and kowtowed and said, "Greetings to Master!"
"Get up!" A kind voice sounded.
Bai Jin stood up, sat cross-legged on the cushion, complaining, "Master, now the disciples of the Ancestral Sect and the Jie Sect are constantly conflicting. I have tried my best to calm the disciples, but the effect has been minimal. Please teach me how I should do it? What are the master and the second uncle thinking? Why have they kept saying no to stop it?"
Taishang sat cross-legged in the main seat, shook his head slowly and said, "We have seen all your efforts, but some things cannot be done by hard work."
"I don't understand, why do Jie Sect and the Ancestral Sect have to be constantly disputed? Please teach me~"
"The Tao is different and does not plan for each other. Your master's way of cutting the sky and your two masters' way of expounding the sky are mutually refuted. Both cannot coexist, and the conquest between disciples is also affected by the Tao of the two."
Bai Jin said blankly: "With influenced by my master and uncle, why don't I feel anything at all?"
The Supreme Master looked at Bai Jin and said speechlessly: "Because you accepted the way of both, I don't know if you are eclectic or should you say you have no opinion."
Bai Jin said awkwardly: "I think Master's Tao is right! I also think Master's Tao makes sense."
Taishang laughed out loud and shook his head slightly.
"Master, water and fire can complement each other, and yin and yang can blend together. Why can't the analysis and the passage go hand in hand? Don't you just learn it well?"
"You can't go far like this." The Supreme Talk said, "Do you know what a saint is invincible?"
"The saint is very powerful and will not fail. It should be that way!"
"It is not the case. A saint will be defeated when encountering a saint.
The so-called saint's invincible means that in his own way, the saint will not be defeated. Every saint firmly believes in his own way and has reached the extreme, and uses his own way to suppress the other great ways. This means that the saint is undefeated and the self-defeated path is undefeated.
When water and fire are combined, it is because there is a force that is more powerful than water and fire that is interfering, and when yin and yang are integrated, it is because there is a force that is more powerful than yin and yang that is in a magnitude, but the holy path cannot be parallel, because there is no more powerful than the holy path.”
Bai Jin said sadly: "Is there really no way to do it?"
The Supreme One shook his head slightly and said sadly: "Have you worked hard?! It's enough to work hard."
"Disciple understand!" Bai Jin stood up, bowed to the Supreme Master again, turned around and walked outside.
Bai Jin walked out of the gate of Taiqing Palace and looked at the vast Kunlun Mountains. He felt difficult to calm down. After working hard for so long, he was still in vain. Some things were indeed impossible to do by hard work!
Since we are destined to tear our faces apart in the future, it is better to separate friendlyly in the current harmonious situation, which is a peaceful breakup!
The clouds rose under Bai Jin's feet flew towards Shangqing Peak. At this moment, he had made a decision and felt calm.
Bai Jin fell on the Shangqing Peak, bowed to Shangqing Palace and said, "Disciple, please see Master!"
A beautiful little Taoist boy walked out of the small door next to him and bowed and said, "Senior brother, the master has gone into seclusion. The master said that the matter of interception will be handled by you and Senior Brother Duobao."
Bai Jin tidied up the Taoist robe, knelt down solemnly and said, "Disciple, please see Master!"
The little Taoist boy was a little at a loss for a moment. What should I do now? The master didn’t say anything! Should I kneel down and greet my senior brother?!
After a while, the gate of Shangqing Palace slowly opened, and a solemn voice came from it: "Come in!"
Bai Jin stood up, patted the dust on his body, and walked into the Taoist Palace, and the Taoist Palace was closed again.
The little Taoist boy suddenly felt relieved.
Bai Jin entered the Shangqing Palace, knelt on the cushion, and respectfully said, "Disciple, pay homage to Master!"
