“So cheesy!”

Yun Mengxi twitched and said, “Fine, you guys go play poker without me. I’m off to bed!”

Site yawned and crawled into the stone coffin.

“Huh?”

“Are we really going to play poker together?”

Yue Yuluo glanced at Xu Yang and then at Liu Shishi and Yang Yin. She blushed and said, “Elder sisters… Why don’t you play with him first?”

“It’s just a game of poker. Does it matter who goes first?”

Liu Shishi looked puzzled and said, “Wouldn’t it be better if all four of us played together?”

“Shishi and Yuluo, you guys go ahead… I… I should probably not.”

Yang Yin bowed her head and flushed. She looked shy. After some prodding by Liu Shishi, she discovered that “playing poker” had another implication apart from the literal meaning.

They learnt it from a video explaining a TV drama that they had watched earlier.

Liu Shishi was silent for a few seconds before sighing, “Our Da Xia culture is truly deep and profound…”

Unexpectedly…

In the end, one man and three ghosts did indeed end up playing poker together. Soon, Xu Yang’s face was plastered with sticky notes. Angrily he shouted, “I’m not playing anymore, you guys are cheating!”

The three girls giggled sweetly. Yue Yuluo sidled up to him and coquettishly suggested, “Husband, how about we change the rules? Whoever loses has to take off a piece of clothing.”

“Noway, noway!”

Xu Yang hurriedly shook his head and refused.

Even Liu Shishi was surprised. Xu Yang actually refused such a proposal? Even though she’s a ghost and her clothes can be conjured at will, thus stripping is impossible, didn’t Xu Yang know this?

Xu Yang looked serious and said, “Such a scene is not for free, furthermore, it’s not allowed on this platform.”

The next morning.

After breakfast, Xu Yang checked out of the hotel, got in the car with the four girls, and started sightseeing around the city. At 2 PM, he received a video call from Grandmaster Chengming.

“Old senior.”

After answering the call, Grandmaster Chengming said, “Boy, your Haotian Hammer is ready. Are you going to pick it up yourself or should I send it over?” Xu Yang glanced at the location.

It wasn’t too far from Louguan Temple. He immediately said, “I’ll pick it up myself.”

After ending the call, Xu Yang said, “You guys continue to have fun here. I’m going to pick something up… After I return, let’s head to Lintong County and visit the Terracotta Warriors and Emperor Qin Shi Huang’s Mausoleum.” Xu Yang arrived at the Zongsheng Palace and found Grandmaster Chengming under the ginkgo tree.

The old Daoist was not in his purple robe today, but a white one instead.

With a sword slung around his waist, his eternally young appearance, and his otherworldly temperament were even more pronounced in the white outfit. It didn’t look flamboyant but rather exuded the charm of a true sage.

“You’re here?”

He turned around to look at Xu Yang. Seeing that Xu Yang was standing quite far away, he looked surprised and asked, “Why don’t you come closer?”

Xu Yang looked up at the ginkgo tree.

His current position was just outside the extent of the tree’s crown, ensuring that he wouldn’t be reached by the branches. He said, “Old senior, just toss the hammer over here. I won’t go over there… What if the ginkgo tree touches me again when it’s in a good mood, wouldn’t that upset you?”

“Why are you so understanding today?”

The old Taoist was surprised. He laughed and said, “If that’s the case, it won’t be a waste of my time and effort to craft the artifact for you… Catch!” As he spoke, he suddenly turned his palm over, and a black hammer appeared in his hand.

With a casual toss, the hammer turned into a black light and shot towards Xu Yang.

Xu Yang instinctively reached out and grabbed the handle of the hammer. However, the hammer kept trembling as if trying to escape from his hand… even though Xu Yang exerted his maximum physical strength and spiritual force, he was still being dragged backwards by the hammer.

“Haha!”

The old Daoist laughed heartily, “You little… Is this all you got?”

Xu Yang was annoyed.

This old man… he’s messing with me?

But the old Daoist just brought his fingers together, waved them lightly in front of him, and shouted, “Go!”

The next moment.

The hammer began to tremble even more violently, seeming to unleash hundreds or even thousands of kilograms of force…

“Damn!”

“This old man!”

“I’ll let you mess with me!”

Xu Yang no longer struggled with the hammer. Looking behind him, he intentionally released his strength… Whoosh!

He was launched into the air by the tremendous force of the hammer.

“Haha!”

There was a slight smile on the corners of the old Daoist’s mouth and he appeared quite pleased. Watching Xu Yang being carried away by the hammer, he thought, “You bastard, that’s for messing with Xing Er… What the hell!” The last word was shouted out loud.

Instantly, there was a loud noise as dust and smoke roiled up. Xu Yang, along with the hammer, went crashing into a Dao Palace which was twenty meters away. The Dao Palace, which had survived for a thousand years, couldn’t withstand such force.

Boom!

The entire Dao Palace collapsed with a loud noise, turning into a heap of rubble.

Grandmaster Chengming was stunned.

The disciples of Zongsheng Palace were also startled and ran over one after another.

Especially Supreme Sage Shancun, who swiftly arrived at the ruins of the collapsed Dao Palace, looking like he could die of heartache, murmuring, “My Dao Palace… My palace that I spent 3.8 million dollars on to renovate three years ago…”

In the rubble of the collapsed Dao Palace, a wooden plank suddenly was lifted, and a dust-covered Xu Yang emerged.

On his face

was a look of embarrassment as he said to Supreme Sage Shancun, “Supreme Sage Shancun, I’m sorry… It’s because my cultivation is too weak that I couldn’t catch the hammer thrown by the old predecessor, which caused the Dao Palace to collapse…”

Supreme Sage Shancun instinctively turned to look at Grandmaster Chengming.

Grandmaster Chengming: ”?? ”

Damn it!

I obviously controlled my power, didn’t I?

This bastard just had to resist, and that hammer would’ve brought you only about 30 feet off the ground before falling, causing you only a slight embarrassment… You’re screwing with me, aren’t you?

He yelled in his heart, wishing he could smack Xu Yang into the ground with that hammer. But there are so many disciples of Zongsheng Palace watching. Couldn’t he be a little bit more image-conscious?

He could only swallow his anger and calmly said, “It’s just a Dao Palace, why such a fuss? Everyone go back and continue your cultivation… Shancun, I’ll write a note later, and you can take it to Zhang Jiyu of Dragon Tiger Mountain. Isn’t he the chairman of the Daoist Association? Ask him to allocate 20 million dollars, saying we need to renovate the public properties.”

Supreme Sage Shancun’s eyes lit up, and he quickly agreed.

20 million dollars…

Not to mention rebuilding this Dao Palace, even two more collapses would be sufficient.

If it were usual, all the Daoist temples would apply to the Daoist Association for funding, and the Association would definitely drag their feet. Even when they really allocated funds, it would be with huge discounts, for example, if you apply for 10 million, you’d be lucky to get 3 million.

But if the old patriarch writes a note, then the Daoist Association will put all efforts to process it, and the chairman of the Daoist Association, that current Heavenly Master from Dragon Tiger Mountain, might even personally deliver the funds!

Just as he was about to leave, the old Daoist Master said, “Wait…”

“What instructions does the old patriarch have?”

Supreme Sage Shancun stopped in his tracks.

Grandmaster Chengming stroking his beard, said, “Using 20 million dollars to renovate a Dao Palace would be more than sufficient. Transfer the remaining money to my card, I need it later.”

“Understood, old patriarch.”

Only then did Shancun leave. frёeωebɳovel.com

Xu Yang was left dumbfounded!

What the hell!

This is possible?

The old Daoist tried to mess with him, so he decided to mess with the old man in return. His plan was to donate 3 to 5 million Dollars to Zongsheng Palace as compensation for the collapsed Dao Palace when he left. Who would have thought that the old guy would get the money to renovate the Dao Palace and also have surplus just by opening his mouth?

When everyone had left, Grandmaster Chengming whooshed over to Xu Yang, grabbed him by the collar, and angrily said, “Boy, you dare to play with me… Pay up! If you don’t have 3 to 5 million today, don’t even think about getting out of the gate of Zongsheng Palace!”

Xu Yang: ”? ”

This old Daoist really is black-hearted!

Not only has he pocketed 20 million dollars from the Daoist Association, but he also wants to ask me for money?

But what he’s most flush with now is money, so though Xu Yang was being collared, his face was utterly calm. He smiled faintly and said, “Elder, I crashed into the Dao Palace, I must compensate, and you helped me refine a Daoist artifact. I should pay you for the tea, shouldn’t I?”

He extended out two fingers and said without any expression, “So, I’ll transfer

another 20 million dollars to you. How about that?”

The old Daoist let go of Xu Yang, his face finally losing its furious expression.

When Xu Yang finished the transfer, a smile appeared at the corners of his eyes, but he still seemed impatient as he waved his hand and said, “Alright, get lost.” Xu Yang, carrying his hammer, looked it over as he walked.

This hammer was entirely black, with a touch of red in the black. The hammer handle and head were one piece, and he had no idea how the old Daoist had refined it.

The shape of the hammer was almost identical to the Haotian Hammer in the picture he had given to the old Daoist. The hammerhead was estimated to be about 20 centimeters high, and the handle was least 80 centimeters long. The handle was engraved with patterns that were not only aesthetic but also provided increased friction for a better grip.

This hammer was much bigger than the one he had picked up for smashing coal previously.

Of course,

the biggest difference was the weight.

This hammer, Xu Yang estimated, definitely weighed more than 1000 kg. Exactly how heavy, Xu Yang couldn’t tell. He would need to get something to weigh it.

“This hammer is made from black flame stone, it’s big and heavy, so it might

as well be called… Big Iron Hammer!”

“Right!”

“Since this hammer is a Daoist artifact, it should be able to be blood-activated right?”

Xu Yang pricked his finger, and a drop of blood fell onto it.

He immediately noticed that in the system attribute panel, the “Treasure” column, the words “Big Iron Hammer” were slowly displayed.

And behind “Big Iron Hammer,” there also appeared the words “Top-grade

Magic Treasure.”

“What the hell!”

Xu Yang complained: “I was just saying that in passing, but it really got called

Big Iron Hammer, this… Wait!”

He suddenly paused, coming to a realization: “I originally thought that only when it reached the level of a Spiritual artifact could it be called a magic treasure, and could it be displayed behind the “Treasure” column… Now the Big Iron Hammer can actually appear in the attribute column, then why don’t my grandfather’s peachwood sword and that set of ritual clothing and Daoist robe show up?”
