“So Fellow Daoist Shen is actually a high-grade Talisman Master. Excuse me.” Chen Yan was much more polite. He turned his body and glanced at the beautiful girl behind him, as well as a young man who looked rather wooden.

“Chen Ying greets Fellow Daoist Shen!”

“Chen Jing greets Fellow Daoist Shen!”

The two of them cupped their hands in greeting.

When Shen Ping heard that, he could not help but think to himself that these two were probably not only Chen Yan’s junior brother and sister, but also cultivators from his clan. He was not surprised by this.

The factions in the large sects were complicated. Among them, the family factions occupied a very important part. For example, his family had an inseparable connection with the Golden Sun Main Sect.

After exchanging a few pleasantries, Chen Yan left with his disciples.

…..

In the small courtyard, Fellow Daoist Mu, the Zhang brothers, and Alchemist Feng warmly congratulated Shen Ping for breaking through to a high-grade Talisman Master.

Especially when Mu Yushuang was congratulating him, her eyes looked at Yu Yan. “1 remember that Fellow Daoist Yu and Talisman Master Shen are only in a co-rent relations.h.i.+p. 1 didn’t expect you to become Dao Companions now. Tsk tsk, as expected, being close is good.”

As she spoke, her voice changed. “Talisman Master Shen, do you want to consider me? The Heavenly Sound Pavilion can’t even protect itself. 1 don’t know where I’ll be wandering in the future. If I have Talisman Master Shen’s protection, I can also have a place to stay.” Her fragrant tongue slid across the corner of her lips. “Although 1 don’t have any other skills, I’m quite experienced in dual cultivation.”

Shen Ping hurriedly said, “Senior Mu, you must be joking. My cultivation level is low. It’s enough for me to have a wife, a concubine, and a Dao companion.”

With that, he turned around and returned to the house with his wife, concubine, and Yu Yan. Mu Yushuang snorted. Alchemist Feng smiled faintly. The Zhang brothers looked at Shen Ping’s house and shook their heads slightly.

At the beginning of the day.

In the Spring Embroidery Pavilion in the market.

Shen Ping took out a high-level talisman and handed it over.

When Shopkeeper Chen saw the two Spirit Protection Talismans, the warm smile on his face widened. “Fellow Daoist Shen, it seems that you’ve already broken through to a high-grade Talisman Master. Congratulations!”

After Shen Ping casually replied with a lucky breakthrough, he leaned closer and asked in a low voice, “Shopkeeper Chen, has there been any news from the Golden Sun Sect recently?”

Shopkeeper Chen’s expression did not change. “Fellow Daoist Shen, which aspect are you referring to?”

“It’s about Yunhe Alley. In a few days, the sect disciples will be settling in the market in large numbers. To be honest, disciples of the Acacia Faction came to my small courtyard to inform me in advance today.”

Shen Ping had a helpless expression on his face. “I’m a Talisman Master and am not good at fighting. If 1 offend the disciples of the Acacia Faction, I’m afraid I won’t be able to keep my life.”

Shopkeeper Chen glanced at Shen Ping and said in a low voice, “Fellow Daoist Shen, you don’t have to worry too much. The recent commotions in the market is only temporary. As long as you survive this period of time, it’s fine. Try not to go out if you can. But it is a little troublesome when your courtyard has disciples of the Acacia Faction.”

At this point, he said through voice transmission, “The disciples of the Acacia Faction are best at the Dao of Yin-Yang Plucking and Charm, especially female disciples. The Dao of Charm is impossible to guard against. Once you fall into it, at best, you will lose your cultivation. At worst, you will become a Demon Puppet and be controlled by it.

“Although you’re middle-aged, you’re a Talisman Master. It’s very easy for you to become the target of the Acacia Faction disciples.”

Shen Ping was shocked and immediately regretted revealing his ident.i.ty as a high-grade Talisman Master. He originally wanted to use his ident.i.ty as a Talisman Master to avoid some unnecessary trouble, but he did not expect it to backfire.

However, his expression did not change. “Shopkeeper Chen, the Acacia Faction disciple 1 saw today has the demeanor of a large sect, not like the demonic path…”

Shopkeeper Chen interrupted, “The Acacia Faction is the top demonic sect in Jin Kingdom. Disciples of such sects are best at disguising themselves. On the surface, they look gentle and refined with an extraordinary bearing, but in fact, their methods are ruthless and sinister. The Heavenly Sound Pavilion of the Cloud Mountain Parlour actually has some connections with the Acacia Faction. And countless cultivators have been scammed into being penniless and miserable in the Heavenly Sound Pavilion!

“Fellow Daoist Shen, do you dare to touch the female cultivators of the Heavenly Sound Pavilion?”

Shen Ping shook his head repeatedly. What a joke. The female cultivators of the Heavenly Sound Pavilion were the masters of sucking bones. How could he withstand it with his little resistance?

They chatted for a while more. He only left after knowing that the Spring Embroidery Pavilion would not move out of the market.

When he returned to Yunhe Alley, Shen Ping made a trip to the True Treasure Pavilion and asked about the price of a special Dharma artifact that could resist charm techniques. After asking carefully, he dispelled this thought.

The charm technique of the female cultivators of the Heavenly Sound Pavilion could be resisted by special Dharma artifacts. However, the charm of the Acacia Faction was even higher.

High-quality special Dharma artifacts could resist the Divine Consciousness Illusion Technique in the charm. However, some body language and strange secret techniques could only rely on his Divine Consciousness and will to resist.

In the end, Mu Jin told him that the best way to settle this once and for all was not to have a certain ability, and then buy a special Dharma artifact.

Apart from that, that was to minimize contact with the Acacia Faction disciples.

In the small courtyard of Yunhe Alley.

Shen Ping muttered speechlessly, “What kind of lousy method is this!”

He frowned. He could store the spirit rice, rare treasures, and spirit beast meat he needed for his daily life. He could even stay indoors for half a year. However, he still wanted to partic.i.p.ate in the True Treasure Pavilion’s auction every month to bid for spiritual liquid and some medicinal pills to a.s.sist in his cultivation.

Now, the prices of various items in the market have plummeted. Although the spirit liquid had not decreased drastically, with Shen Ping’s efficiency in making talismans, he could auction a drop every month. If he consumes it for three to four months, he might be able to break through.

But it was not safe even if Yu Yan went out with him. After all, the Acacia Faction did not only have female disciples.

“Fellow Daoist Shen, what’s wrong?” Yu Yan walked down from the second floor and noticed Shen Ping’s expression. Their relations.h.i.+p had improved by leaps and bounds. Shen Ping did not hide his worries. “Let me go out!

“When I fought in the Cloud Mountain Swamp in the past, I also encountered demon beasts and cultivators who knew illusion techniques. Even if I encountered the secret methods of the Acacia Faction disciples, I think I can more or less deal with them.” Yu Yan said confidently.

Shen Ping shook his head. He needed to go to the True Treasure Pavilion’s auction, not to buy items in the market.

“Why? You don’t believe in my methods?” Yu Yan snorted. “I don’t dare to say that I’m very confident in resisting the divine sense illusion, but in terms of s.e.x, I’m stronger than you.” At this point, her face blushed a little. “Ordinary cultivators can’t stand the commotion between Fellow Daoist Shen and your wife and concubine!”

Shen Ping suddenly laughed and said in a low voice, “It seems that Fellow Daoist Yu is indeed extraordinary. However, you were the one who said that you couldn’t wait last night.”

“You…” Yu Yan gritted her teeth and smiled. “Yes, I couldn’t wait. It’s the same now. Do you want to do it again?”

Shen Ping immediately felt his legs go weak. He laughed dryly and said, “Fellow Daoist Yu’s physique is special. I’ll spar again after I’ve recuperated.” As he spoke, he quickly went upstairs without looking back.

Yu Yan was stunned. She looked at Shen Ping’s back and muttered in surprise, “I don’t remember saying anything last night.”

A few days later, under the Golden Sun Sect’s arrangements, a large number of cultivators in the entire market took a flying s.h.i.+p to the Chen Market in the Cloud Mountain Swamp. On the same day, the cultivators of the other sects left the flying s.h.i.+p and officially entered the various alleys of the market.

As soon as Chen Ying and Chen Jing of the Acacia Faction entered the small courtyard, they went straight to the second house where Shen Ping lived to visit.

Shen Ping was a little fl.u.s.tered. It was as Shopkeeper Chen said, the Acacia Faction was targeting him..
