"Sir Li, please sincerely kneel down. This old man will ask the old master for a protective talisman on your behalf."

Daoist Zhu looked at Li Dao and spoke with a kind tone.

Li Dao laughed. How could a trifling city god ask him to kneel and kowtow? Could he really bear it?

"Ninth Uncle, I'm sorry. Ever since I was born, I've never had the habit of bending my knee."

Hearing Li Dao's words, a strange look flashed across Temple Head Zhu's eyes. However, he quickly adjusted himself and said, "Don't worry, as long as you are sincere, it will be fine."

Then, he took out a peach wood sword and started chanting some unknown words.

After he finished jumping, he handed a yellow talisman, which had been lit and folded into a triangle, to Li Dao. Needless to say, this yellow talisman really did have a trace of Joss Flame psychokinesis on it. It probably really did have a protective effect. It wouldn't be a problem to deal with wandering ghosts.

"Young master, please keep this talisman properly. Tonight, this old man will accompany young master to the mansion to receive that fox demon."

Miao Zhu looked at Li Dao as he spoke. Li Dao was playing with the yellow talisman in his hand. He did not have any intention of paying for the talisman.

Miao Zhu coughed twice and asked, "Has Young Master forgotten something?"

After saying that, he made a hand gesture to weigh the silver in his hand, indicating that it was time for Li Dao to give him the silver.

Li Dao casually threw away the yellow talisman, slapped his head, and acted as if he suddenly came to a realization as he smiled and said, "I'm sorry, Ninth Uncle. Look, I forgot about this matter. I don't have money."

His voice was cold as he asked, "Brat, I think you're here to cause trouble, aren't you afraid of Old Master Cheng Yan's punishment?"

"I don't mean that. I really don't have money, but if the City Lord wants to punish me, then just let him punish me. I want to see how he will punish me."

Li Dao had a faint smile on his face. The surrounding believers also noticed the situation and looked at Li Dao with unfriendly expressions.

"You don't know your place. If I don't teach you a lesson today, this old man's temple wishes will be in vain." Miao Zhu clapped his hands with a gloomy face. Immediately, over ten big men rushed in.

These people looked strong, and their faces were full of muscles. If an ordinary person were to see this scene, they would probably admit defeat.

From the looks of these people, they were probably the guards of a city temple. They usually ate a lot of meat and fish, which was why they were so valiant. How could an ordinary person have a ferocious face?

"Go, capture this brat. I want to hang him outside the temple for three days and three nights to let everyone know the consequences of bumping into the old master."

With a loud shout from the temple, the men neatly pounced towards Li Dao.

However, just as they arrived in front of Li Dao, they were sent flying by an invisible force and fell to the ground in confusion.

The commoners that came to offer incense started to criticize at the same time, causing Li Dao to feel very displeased.

Miao Zhu took two steps forward and spoke darkly, "I was wondering who would dare to come to the City God Temple and cause trouble. It turns out they are a martial arts expert. "However, if you think that you can be so impudent in front of me just because you know a bit of martial arts, then you are completely wrong."

A yellow talisman was already caught between his index finger and middle finger, surrounded by a faint hint of the incense's worth of psychokinesis.

"City deity, borrowing your strength, five fires to cleanse your body, go!"

Miao Zhu chanted an incantation and a weak mana seeped out of his body and circulated around his fingertips. He activated the Yellow Symbol and threw it towards Li Dao.

The yellow talismans burned and turned into five flaming snakes that surrounded Li Daoyi.

The surrounding commoners all knelt down and kowtowed, calling the city lord's spirit to show.

"Brat, I'll give you one more chance. Kneel in front of the City Lord God Statue and admit your wrongs, then take out a thousand taels of silver as perfume, I'll let you off, otherwise I'll let you try the Five Flames Burning Body!"

Li Dao chuckled. He did not expect this temple master to be a cultivator at the second level of Qi Refining. He had misjudged him.

"You can try. I also want to have a taste of the Five-fire Burning Body," Li Dao said in a teasing tone. If this little bit of mortal fire could burn a single hair of his own, then why not take out a thousand taels of silver to make him some fragrant oil?

"Brat, you brought this upon yourself. You can't blame this old man for this." Miaomiao's face was gloomy. With a wave of his hand, five fire serpents charged towards Li Dao.

However, something extremely eye-catching happened. The five fire serpents charged towards Li Dao, but before Li Dao could do anything, the fire serpents had already disappeared.

At this point in time, Miao Zhu also realized that he had met an expert. His forehead was covered in cold sweat, but he quickly thought of a solution. Don't forget that this is a city temple.

"Hey, demon, don't be so lawless just because you know some kind of demon art, wait for me to ask the old master to surrender you!"

Miao Zhu turned around and knelt down. After smoking a few mouthfuls of special incense, he lit it up and said, "Lord City Elder, I, Miao Zhu and Yin Jiu have something to report!"

Li Dao crossed his arms over his chest. He also wanted to see what the City Deer looked like.

After a while, Li Dao felt a strand of spiritual will come back to life. The statue seemed to have come back to life as it let out a majestic voice, "What has disturbed this sovereign?"

"Reporting to the old master, the demon in front of you is here to cause trouble, messing with the believers to worship the incense. The Yin 9 is not your opponent, please help the old master."

As Yin Jiu said this, he pointed his finger at Li Dao. The statue's eyes turned to look at him, and when it saw Li Dao, its eyes glazed over.

"You are the City Lord?"

Li Dao laughed lightly as he spoke. This city was destroyed by divine will, so it was not a big deal. His original body should only be at the Aurous Core stage.

"So it's Ancestor here. This little god has eyes but is unable to recognize Mt. Tai. I hope that Ancestor will not argue with me like this."

The statue laughed, its voice no longer as majestic as it was before.

Hearing the conversation between Li Dao and the city deity, Temple Head Zhu felt as if his heart had died. He was not stupid, and even now he understood that Li Dao was a terrifying existence that even the city deity feared.

"Alright, you can leave now. Remember to teach me a lesson at your temple. Don't try to swindle me. Life isn't easy!"

"The Ancestor's lesson is that this little deity will be taking his leave now."

The deity statue returned to its previous state as both of Miao Zhu's legs went limp and he knelt on the ground, repeating the same words, "Please spare me, please spare me!"

The people in the temple were also kneeling on the ground. They bent over and buried their heads in the ground as they called out to the deities.

By the time these people raised their heads, Li Dao's figure had already disappeared, leaving behind the people looking at each other in dismay. This time, they were back to the topic of chatting after the meal.
