This Taoist Master is too Frivolous

It’s natural for a son who has made something of himself! But wanting to show off in front of his old man, Xu Yang can understand!

But if you want to act all high and mighty, that’s going too far!

“I never thought my dear nephew would be so filial!”

Xu Yang praised: “Your father would be very happy if he knew.”

Xie Xun modestly smiled and said: “It’s all thanks to my father’s good upbringing, he often teaches me that as ghosts, we must uphold loyalty and filial piety, understand benevolence, justice, know propriety, wisdom, and trust, otherwise, we cannot be considered good ghosts.”

This goddamn kid.

Call him fat, and he’s panting too?

While complaining in his heart, Xu Yang smiled on the surface and said: “My dear nephew, don’t worry! Seeing your father later is not an urgent matter… Ever since you came to the mortal world, I haven’t been able to treat you well, this is my failing as your uncle. Let’s go and have a meal first.”

He took Xie Xun for lunch.

After eating, Xu Yang called Wang Lin.

Wang Lin was already a key member of the “Wu City Brigade” of the Xi Xia branch of the Spirits Management Bureau. After the Wu City Brigade was promoted to “branch,” his status naturally rose with the tide. Moreover, having now established a connection with the Black and White Impermanence, he subtly has the aura of becoming the “third in command” of Wu City branch.

“Supreme Sage Xu.”

Wearing a suit and leather shoes, Wang Lin parked his BMW in front of Xu Yang, got out of the car, and respectfully saluted Xu Yang.

His body was surrounded by a faint but discernible true meaning of martial arts, and his vitality had become much stronger than before, apparently having already stepped into the realm of “Half-step Grandmaster.”

“A few days apart, Mr. Wang’s cultivation has progressed quite a bit.”

“It’s all thanks to your blessings, Supreme Sage Xu.”

After exchanging a few pleasantries, Xu Yang asked about the situation of the Black and White Impermanence.

Wang Lin smiled and said: “Lord Hei and Master Wang are quite carefree these days. They drink tea, go to bars, and get massages every day. They’re having a great time.”

“What?”

Before Xu Yang could speak, Xie Xun exclaimed loudly, “How can they be like this? They were sent here by the Underworld to capture ghosts, not to indulge in pleasures!”

“Supreme Sage Xu, who is this?”

Wang Lin looked at Xie Xun suspiciously.

Xu Yang introduced him: “He is an Underworld Inspector sent by the Underworld to supervise the ghost officials and grim reapers in the mortal world. Wang Lin… Let’s go and meet the Black and White Impermanence.”

Upon hearing these words, Wang Lin’s gaze couldn’t help but flicker.

He said, “Supreme Sage Xu, Inspector, please wait a moment. Let me buy a pack of cigarettes first.”

He rushed into a supermarket by the roadside, and while buying cigarettes, he took out his mobile phone and quickly typed a message to White Impermanence.

“Lord Hei, there’s trouble. The Underworld has sent an Inspector who’s responsible for supervising the ghost officials and grim reapers in the mortal world. He’s with Supreme Sage Xu right now and wants me to take him to see you and Master Wang… We’ll be there in about 20 minutes.”

After sending the message, he paid for the cigarettes and walked out of the supermarket leisurely.

Right now, he and the Black and White Impermanence were on the same side of the battle.

Of course, he had to find a way to buy some time for them…

Because, to his knowledge, the Black and White Impermanence went out every night to party all night long, and then brought women back to their villa… At this point, he wasn’t sure if the women they brought home had left or not.

His actions deceived Xie Xun but not Xu Yang.

Xu Yang glanced at him, his thoughts racing, and smiled, “Wang Lin, why don’t you smoke first? We can go after you finish… This is a new car, after all, and there will be cigarette ash flying around in it.”

…

Meanwhile.

Wu City, Ziyu Prefecture.

Ziyu Prefecture is a high-end residential area developed in Wu City in recent years. Half of the houses here are villas, and the other half are large flats. Those who settle down here are either rich or noble.

The Black and White Impermanence lived here.

They lived in a three-story villa with a luxurious and extravagant decoration, fully furnished, which cost nearly 100 million yuan. It was purchased with funds allocated by the Spirits Management Bureau.

“Old Fan!”

Suddenly, a cry of surprise came from Xie Bian’s room, “Something’s wrong… an Inspector from the Underworld has arrived!”

“What?”

Black Impermanence, Fan Wujiu, rushed out of the room, panic-stricken, “What’s going on? How could an Inspector from the Underworld suddenly come to the mortal world? In all the thousands of years, there has never been a precedent for Inspectors to inspect the mortal world!”

“How would I know?”

White Impermanence, Xie Bian, said, “Hurry, hurry and chase those two women away… If the Inspector knows that we have been indulging ourselves to such an extent in the mortal world, I’m afraid we won’t be able to avoid a court-martial… Then when Lord Cui blames us, it’s all over!”

Dragged out the women from their respective rooms, Xie Bian threw a wad of cash at them and told them to leave immediately.

The two women received the money, and their hearts were delighted. But on the surface, they were unwilling and complained about being abandoned after being used and left with a swing of their hips.

Black and White Impermanence quickly employed their divine powers to clean up the entire villa, then transformed themselves, each putting on their “uniform” and anxiously came outside the villa.

“Bian, what’s going on?”

Black Impermanence still looked puzzled, and whispered, “Now that the Emperor is away, the Ghost Emperors of the Five Directions each govern their territories, and the Ten Halls Yama Kings take care of their own business… In fact, the real person in charge of the Underworld is Lord Cui. So, is it possible that Lord Cui is sending an inspector because he doesn’t trust us brothers?”

“Shut up!”

Xie Bian quickly scolded, “Old Fan, I know you’re blunt, and you can’t hide your thoughts… But there are some things that can’t be said. Whatever Lord Cui does must have his deep intentions. We can’t guess wildly.”

Fan Wujiu nodded and said, “When the inspector comes, I’ll definitely speak less.”

Xie Bian finally breathed a sigh of relief and said, “In terms of rank, our position is higher than that of an inspector… But the inspector has the responsibility of supervision, representing the will of the Underworld and Lord Cui. We must not defy them.”

Fan Wujiu said, “Of course, I understand that… I just don’t know which confidant of Lord Cui is coming to the mortal world this time as the inspector.”

About 20 minutes later.

A BMW drove slowly into Ziyu Prefecture, heading straight for the villa of Black and White Impermanence.

Black and White Impermanence recognized Wang Lin’s car and immediately spirited up, standing up straight.

The BMW slowly stopped.

Wang Lin quickly got out of the driver’s seat, opened the rear door with respect, and said, “Supreme Sage Xu, Inspector… Please get out of the car.”

A foot stretched out from inside the car.

Black and White Impermanence quickly looked over.

They saw that before the owner of the foot got out of the car, they started commenting, “The environment here is not bad…”

White Impermanence’s eyes moved slightly.

He was pondering the hidden meaning behind the inspector’s words.

Black Impermanence’s eyes widened, and he whispered, “Wait… Bian, doesn’t this voice sound just like your son?”

“Don’t talk nonsense!”

White Impermanence’s face changed dramatically, and he quickly bowed, saying to the car door, “Underworld ghost official White Impermanence, welcome, Inspector.”

Black Impermanence muttered, “I didn’t talk nonsense. He sounds exactly like your son.”

Inside the car.

Xie Xun came out and said with a smile, “Uncle Fan knows me well… Just by my voice, he knows it’s me.”

White Impermanence: “…”

He suddenly raised his head, and after seeing it was Xie Xun, he couldn’t help but become furious. With a whoosh, he pulled out the white Soul-binding Chain from his waist, and swung it towards Xie Xun, shouting, “What the hell!”

“You little bastard, who gave you the courage to impersonate the inspector?”

Xie Xun originally fantasized about showing off in front of his father but didn’t expect that he would be beaten instead. Caught off guard, he was struck down by the chain and shouted, “Dad, don’t hit me, hear me out!”

“What the hell!”

“Explain what?”

“When you usually cause trouble in Fengdu City, that’s one thing, but now you dare to pretend to be an Underworld inspector?”

“Do you know how serious this crime is?”

White Impermanence scolded as he continued to whip Xie Xun with the Soul-binding Chain without stopping.

He got angrier as he beat Xie Xun, and with the Soul-binding ability of the chain, even without unleashing its full power, Xie Xun, a peak Ghost King, was whipped to the ground, trembling, unable to say a word.

“…”

It took Black Impermanence a full six or seven seconds to react, and then he shouted—

“Holy crap!”

“This bastard actually dared to impersonate the inspector?”

“Bian, keep beating… Beat the hell out of him, beat him to death!”

Wang Lin: “…”

The young man was confused and looked at Xu Yang in astonishment, “Supreme Sage Xu, what’s going on here?”

Xu Yang: “It’s nothing, the inspector is just Lord Hei’s son, a few hits won’t hurt.”

Wang Lin continued, “What did Lord Hei and Master Wang mean… Pretending to be an inspector?”

Xu Yang: “He knows his son best… Lord Hei probably thinks that with Xie Xun’s abilities, even if smoke rose from their family’s grave, he could never become an Underworld inspector.”

Wang Lin gasped, “Could it be that this inspector is really fake?”

“No, he’s real!”

Xu Yang said, “Xie Xun alone certainly can’t become an inspector, but with me here, Lord Cui has to give some face.”

White Impermanence: “???”

He abruptly stopped the Soul-binding Chain in his hand and turned his head in disbelief to look at Xu Yang.

Black Impermanence shouted, “Bian, why did you stop? Keep beating… This bastard dares to fake being an inspector today, could become a Judge tomorrow, who knows what he’ll do in the future? Beat him to death!”
