Chapter 503: Chapter 358: Werewolf Reappears, Where is Doctor Wan?
Grandpa had already chosen the location for the City God Temple twelve days ago.
With the connection of Xu Yang, it was naturally greenlit, and it was approved in just an hour after the report was submitted.
The chosen location was in a park outside Xishan Town, with flowers, plants, and beautiful scenery.
The construction of the City God Temple was under the responsibility of the “Underworld.”
After all, the City God was an official of the “Underworld”, so it made sense for the Underworld to be responsible for building his “office”. Thus, on the same night when the site was selected for the City God Temple, the Underworld dispatched ghost divinities to move mountains and create things, and built a high-standard City God Temple overnight.
Grandpa chose the site for the City God Temple here for two reasons: first, it was close to Wanshou Palace, which made it convenient to travel back and forth; if something happened at Wanshou Palace, he could arrive within 1 minute.
Secondly, because it is close to Wanshou Palace.
When a City God Temple is first built, it doesn’t have much of a reputation and it is difficult to receive the power of faith in incense.
Grandpa is now a City God, an Earthly Deity under Heaven’s decree. If he can gain a large amount of the power of faith in incense, it would be of great benefit to his cultivation and future development.
There are many tourists and pilgrims visiting Wanshou Palace every day.
For them to visit the City God Temple after visiting Wanshou Palace and offer incense sticks, wouldn’t that be quite reasonable?
Having left Wanshou Palace,
Xu Yang flew directly to Grandpa’s City God Temple.
Looking down from the sky, he noticed that there were quite a few pilgrims at the City God Temple, though not as many as at Wanshou Palace, and they queued patiently to offer incense.
The City God Temple also had a backyard.
In the yard, a woman was busy working on some plants.
The woman looked to be around thirty-seven or thirty-eight years old, the Heavenly Being Realm martial artist who had once chased him outside of Wanshou Palace, Grandpa’s… Xiao Fang!
By the plants,
Grandpa was practicing “Ghost Painting Symbol.”
The woman glanced at him and then scoffed, “You’re a ghost. What’s the use of drawing this stuff every day? You should spend this time helping pilgrims show your power instead, and you might be able to get more power of faith in incense.”
Grandpa laughed, “I have Soul Differentiation, and just a strand of consciousness attached to the divine image of the golden body is enough… as for showing my power?”
“Do it occasionally, but if you do it every day, there would be no sense of mystery… besides, some of the things these pilgrims ask for are simply outrageous. There’s even a woman who offered incense, asking me to bless her so that her affair with her lover would not be discovered…”
“Hm?”
During the conversation, Grandpa looked up at the sky.
“Xiao Fang, you better dodge a… never mind, it’s too late.”
He saw a cloud descending from the sky.
Xu Yang stepped off the cloud and walked up to Grandpa. He gave Grandpa a meaningful smile and then looked at the woman next to him, laughing, “This must be Grandma Xiao Fang, right? I’m Xu Yang… My Grandpa should have told you about me.”
Upon hearing the words “Grandma Xiao Fang,” the woman’s face brightened immediately, “He’s mentioned you. Your Grandpa has been singing your praises in my ears, saying that he has raised a good grandson…”
Having said that,
She went forward to hold Xu Yang’s arm, “Xu Yang, let’s go in… I just made some pastries for you to try.”
Xu Zhiyuan’s head was spinning.
There was nothing unmentionable about his relationship with Xiao Fang.
Years ago, he had left her because he had lost the competition for the Dao inheritance and was seriously injured. He did not want Xiao Fang to be implicated.
Now, although he is dead, he has returned to the mortal world to be a City God, and has reconnected with Xiao Fang.
However, in his old age,
He would feel embarrassed if the younger generation learned about such shameless things.
“This little rascal doesn’t even know how to save face for his Grandpa!”
Xu Zhiyuan grumbled and got up to enter the room.
Inside the room, Xiao Fang and Xu Yang had already become familiar with each other and started chatting.
She talked about some of Grandpa’s past events.
“Your Grandpa… when he began to practice Daoism, he was already in his 30s. He could be considered a middle-aged practitioner of Daoism, but his energy and enthusiasm were no less than that of young people. After he entered Dao, he traveled around and competed with others in martial arts.”
“I came from a martial clan family and was 20 years younger than your Grandpa.”
“The first time I met your Grandpa, he had come to my house to challenge my brother… that was our first meeting.”
Hearing Xiao Fang go on and on, Xu Zhiyuan hurriedly coughed and interrupted, “Why bring up the past? Anyway, Xu Yang, there’s a Ghost Market tonight, why didn’t you go back to Wu City?”
Xu Yang ate the pastry and laughed, “With my current cultivation, it only takes a moment to return to Wu City, and my wife and her family are taking care of the things at home and the Ghost Market, so it doesn’t matter if I go back a bit later.”
Having said that,
He glanced back and forth between Grandpa and Xiao Fang, and said, “As for Grandpa and Grandma Xiao Fang’s affairs… I think it’s time to pick a good day and settle it.”
Xu Zhiyuan glanced at Xiao Fang and said sternly, “You little brat, what are you worrying about all day? We have our own plans for our affairs!”
“What plans?”
Xiao Fang had just tied her apron and was cutting vegetables in the kitchen, intending to cook for Xu Yang.
Upon hearing Xu Zhiyuan’s words, she rushed out of the kitchen with a knife in hand and roared, “Xu Zhiyuan, you heartless bastard… Do you not want to take responsibility for… me?”
She wanted to say “I.”
But considering the younger generation was present, she changed her words at once.
Seeing her holding the knife, Grandpa’s heart shuddered, and he instinctively wanted to yield.
However, in front of his eldest grandson, he felt he needed to demonstrate his manliness, so he straightened his chest, glared, and rebuked with a cold voice, “Zhou Xiao Fang, what are you doing?”
