"How is Master Fang doing? He has transformed himself into a Yang Spirit through the use of the celestial talisman, and I can guarantee that without the permission of the Baiyun Temple, I will not transmit the method of creating a Yang Spirit to anyone in this world."
In the inner courtyard of Baiyun Temple, George gently sipped a top-tier Tie Guan Yin tea from the exquisite cup before him and addressed the stooped old Taoist seated opposite.
After dealing with the Wang family, he directly used the illusion technique to change his form and returned to Beijing. The subsequent matters of the Wang family were all handed over to the Tianxia Society as planned.
He wouldn't waste his precious time on seizing the Wang family's properties.
After a brief respite at his home in Beijing, compiling a comprehensive collection of martial arts and spiritual techniques from various schools, he directly traveled to Baiyun Temple to meet the current leader of Baiyun Temple, Master Fang Dintian.
"Mr. Jin, you are a friend of Baiyun Temple. After the completion of the Luotian Grand Sacrifice, Master Xingyang and Xiao Ming have nothing but praise for you."
"If you really want to learn our Baiyun Temple's teachings, I can directly teach you without the need for trading the Heavenly Scriptures."
Master Fang Dintian, with a smile and eyes twinkling with wisdom, responded almost immediately without hesitation.
The news of Jin Baby being annihilated by a single person, the result of a confrontation between Wang Ai, one of the Ten Masters, and the Wang family's numerous high-level experts who were attempting to seize the Heavenly Scriptures, had already spread like wildfire throughout the extraordinary world just two days ago.
Now, everyone believes that Jin Baby's strength may not be inferior to that of a supreme Heavenly Master.
If Jin Baby is willing to become a disciple of Baiyun Temple, even if it's not an official one but just a registered one, it would be far more valuable to Baiyun Temple than the Heavenly Scriptures.
"No, I've always been a fan of fair transactions, and I don't like taking advantage of small opportunities."
George waved his hand and declined Master Fang Dintian's generous offer.
It's said to be teaching him without conditions, but in reality, it's an attempt to get him to join Baiyun Temple. There's no such thing as a free lunch in the world; he won't bind himself to Baiyun Temple.
It's not that he fears being implicated by Baiyun Temple, as his current form in this world is already an invincible being.
It's merely a matter of avoiding unnecessary troubles.
Now, he just has some personal connections with Liu Xingyang and Huang Ming. In the future, if either of them encounters trouble, he'll help out if he has the time, but if not, that's fine.
As for what happens with Baiyun Temple, that's none of his concern.
But if he joined Baiyun Temple, when Baiyun Temple is in trouble in the future, would he help or not?
To help would waste time on his cultivation, but to not help would make him feel guilty in his heart. Having an unresolved feeling in his heart would prevent him from focusing and practicing his cultivation peacefully.
The key is that the succession of this school is a long-standing affair. It's not something that can be ignored just because decades have passed.
Therefore, trading the Heavenly Scriptures for Yang essence birth is the most effortless choice for him.
Because that's just a transaction.
"Since Mr. Jin has a high-minded personality, let's do as he suggests."
Master Fang Dintian wasn't too surprised by George's response. He was just testing the waters. If it worked out, it would be a big success. If not, at least they would have a chance to obtain the Heavenly Scriptures.
In fact, this was also a test of George's character. If George agreed without hesitation, then he really would need to consider it.
Being so prompt suggests that George may not actually intend to take responsibility, but only wants to freeload.
On the contrary, George's unwillingness to accept the teachings freely demonstrates his integrity and moral standards, ensuring his character to some extent.
So, since he's agreed to the transaction without any intention of spreading Baiyun Temple's martial arts, it's likely he'll honor his agreement.
"This is a copy of the Heavenly Scriptures."
George, seeing that Master Fang Dintian had agreed, did not waste any more words but directly placed a copy of the Heavenly Scriptures on the table.
He is not at all afraid that Baiyun Temple might use the Heavenly Scriptures for trading just like he did.
Firstly, the eight extraordinary techniques are inherently coveted by many extraordinary people in the world. Whoever holds them will attract the envy of all, and without enough powerful strength, revealing them will only result in being devoured.
Baiyun Temple, with its long-standing legacy, is a Daoist temple of great antiquity. However, its numbers are sparse, and when it comes to overall strength within the entire world of extraordinary individuals, it doesn't rank highly.
Secondly, he has promised not to pass on the martial arts of Baiyun Temple to anyone else in this world. Therefore, Baiyun Temple cannot sell the Heavenly Scriptures obtained through trade.
Otherwise, the fate of the Wang family would still be fresh in everyone's minds.
Not only Baiyun Temple, but also other schools followed suit with the same transaction terms.
"Heavenly Scriptures, Heavenly Scriptures! I accept it. The martial arts and spiritual techniques, let me this old body pass them on to you!"
Master Fang Dintian picked up the Heavenly Scriptures and, firstly, sighed in admiration before turning to George and saying:
In the dead of night, George, having obtained the Daoist techniques of Baiyun Temple to cultivate Yang essence, teleported back to his home.
As soon as he arrived, he heard the sound of the doorbell ringing.
"This guy is coming back so late again, without a key, it seems like he's about to move out and live elsewhere."
He mentally scanned the door, spotting the tipsy Jin YuanYuan standing outside, and couldn't help but shake his head.
Now that he has figured out the details of this world, the identity of Jin Baby as an ordinary person is no longer of any value.
So in a few days, he will erase the memories of himself and his family members, like how Hermione erased the memories of her parents for him.
Of course, as he had taken over Jin Baby's body, although it was just a corpse, it could still be considered as an act of kindness that he owes.
He will help them with magical energy to sort out their bodies during the memory erasure, allowing Jin Yuanyuan and the others to live a few more years than the average person.
As for money, Jin Yuanyuan and the others don't lack it. What they lack is the sense of accomplishment in life.
"While business is business, let's cut down on the drinking in the future!"
Opening the door, George supported the unsteady Jin YuanYuan into the house and, while doing so, channeled some magical energy to help her sober up.
"Today isn't about business, it's a university classmate gathering. It's been a long time since we last saw Wang Yao. He mentioned that he met you a few days ago while staying at Longhu Mountain."
When Jin YuanYuan's mind cleared, she poured herself a glass of water to explain.
Upon hearing this, George's heart skipped a beat:
"I did meet him, but it was just a coincidence. Why did Master Wang invite you all to gather?"
Wang Ye has one of the Eight Extraordinary Techniques, Wind After Qimen, and they are all in Beijing. He can conveniently go over to see if he can exchange it for the Heavenly Scriptures.
Jin YuanYuan finished the water in one go and couldn't help but laugh.
"The guy must have figured something out, he actually wants to partner with us in business. He also mentioned that he has been expelled from Wudang and is no longer a Daoist."
I always said, at such a young age, what's the point in being a Daoist?"
"Being expelled from Wudang is interesting."
For a young master such as Wang Ye, who is a natural prodigy and a skilled fighter, any major sect would cherish him dearly. How could they possibly expel him?
The only reason is that Wang Ye showed his Wind After Qimen during the Luotian Grand Sacrifice, and some people recognized him. To avoid causing trouble for Wu Dang, they expelled him.
"Let's check it out!"
After greeting Jin YuanYuan and returning to his room, he directly created a thought-body to remain at home while his physical avatar teleported away to follow the trace of Wang Ye's location.
