Zhu's master was about forty years old, with a big belly and a greasy face. He saw some immortal quality in Yue Qing, and after hearing the servant talk about his ability to show off just now at the gate of the Luo family, he had hope: "The one who got possessed by evil spirits is my little daughter. Originally, it was already agreed that she would be married out, but unexpectedly, such a thing happened!"

  Yue Qingdao said: "Sir, take your time to speak, I'm here to ensure that your safety is guaranteed."

  "It can't be helped, alas!" Zhu's face was full of worry. "If it weren't for asking Daozhang to treat this, the matter would really be hard to mention. Since the first day of last month, every night there has been a man's voice in my daughter's room. When someone goes to look, however, there is still only my daughter sleeping alone. As soon as someone comes out, the lights are on again..."

  At this time, the young man who came together with him chimed in from the side: "Why don't you let the maid sleep with your daughter?"

  "Of course, I've thought of this method already. No matter who I send to accompany my daughter, they all fall asleep as soon as they lie down and sleep until dawn. When I ask them what happened the night before, they're all bewildered and don't know a thing. Later, I tried moving my daughter to another place to live, but as soon as she walked out of that embroidered building, she would immediately collapse and lose her breath, just like she was dead. Only by carrying her back could she gradually come to, and this happened several times. I invited all the famous doctors in Chengdu to take a look, but none of them could figure it out. Then I went to Ci Yun Temple to offer a big lamp and invited one of the four great arhats, Master Cixing, who said that what was haunting my daughter was a fox spirit. My daughter was a hunter in her past life and killed its whole family, leaving only this one behind, which cultivated into a spirit and has now come back for revenge. As they say, 'one report leads to another,' the best method is to accept it calmly and wait for it to finish its revenge, dispel the karmic obstacle, and naturally be at peace. Otherwise, I'm afraid there will be even greater disasters falling on our whole family's head."

  The young man asked in doubt, "Ci Yun Temple is a famous temple in the world. The masters inside are all profound in Buddhist law and strictly abide by the rules of purity. They shouldn't deceive you with false words. However, this statement seems to be unreasonable. Are they actually asking your daughter to offer her body as food for the demon?"

  Zhu Yuanwai frowned and looked gloomy: "Master Ci Xing said that the Buddha's law is boundless, all living beings are equal, and that demon is also a living being, with no distinction between high and low, noble and humble. If he wanted to subdue that demon, it would be easy as can be, but he didn't want to accumulate more karma for our family. I begged him in every way, and even offered a thousand taels of silver as a thank-you gift, but he scolded me instead, and finally left without taking a single coin, going back to Ci Yun Temple."

  Yue Qing was also very strange. As the saying goes, a rabbit does not eat the grass at the edge of its nest. Although Zhì Tōng and his group were not good on the inside, they presented themselves well on the surface. In the Sichuan Basin, their reputation among the people was even better than that of the Emei Sect. They had also done many things to subdue demons and evil spirits. Moreover, they were skilled in both black and white magic, so no matter which path they took, bandits, thieves, or even demons and ghosts did not dare to be reckless in Chengdu. This time, when they heard Zhu's words, they actually retreated: "Sir, don't worry, I'll take care of your family here and ensure their safety. Let me go to the Embroidered Building and take a look."

  Zhu Yuanwai accompanied him to see the young lady, and their embroidered building was built in the garden. The environment was extremely quiet and elegant. As soon as Yue Qing entered the garden, he smelled a faint scent that seemed to be there but not quite, sweet and sticky, almost filling his heart and lungs, making his whole body feel comfortable and soft. He asked Zhu Yuanwai: "Is it true that the fox spirit only comes to visit in the first half of the month?"

  "Right, since the first day of last month, it stopped after fifteen days. We thought he had finished his revenge and left, even went to Ci Yun Temple to fulfill our vows, but this month's first day came again."

  Yue Qing suddenly laughed and said: "No need to go any further, I already know the true nature of that 'fox spirit'!"

  Originally, this fragrance was extremely special and was called the Five Desires Enchanting God Incense. Under the heavens, only one person knew how to refine it - the master of the Iron Skin Cave in Cow Liver Gorge on Mount Wu, Feng Wu. Feng Wu came from the Yin Yang Sect and was born with both male and female characteristics, being male for the first half of the month and female for the second half. He specialized in cultivating the art of dual cultivation. His own Daoist name was Xiangwu Zhenren (Fragrant Fog True Person), but because he could refine this Five Desires Enchanting God Incense, he would ingest it daily, making him look like a 16- or 17-year-old for centuries. The fragrance permeated his bones and flesh, and no matter where he went, it naturally wafted out, causing people to become infatuated upon smelling it, regardless of whether they were male or female. He also had another nickname - Powder Boy - and looked like a beautiful youth of 16 or 17 years old. He was recognized by all the various sects as the number one handsome young man, and he had intimate relationships with both male and female cultivators from various families.

  There was a powerful senior fellow apprentice named Sītú Léi, also known as Yīnyáng Cū, who like him was born with the body of both male and female. He had been cultivating for five or six hundred years and his magical powers were extremely high. In Wū Shān's Tiān Niǔ Fēng Yuān Yīn Gōng, he created the Yīnyáng Jiào (Yin Yang Sect). Féng Wú was also considered the second most important person in the Yīnyáng Jiào at that time. Later on, for some unknown reason, the two brothers became enemies and Féng Wú declared his departure from the Xuán Yīn Jiào to create the Wēn Xiāng Jiào (Fragrant Incense Sect), calling himself the Master of the Wēn Xiāng Jiào.

  No wonder Ci Yun Temple is turning a blind eye to this matter, it's likely that Fa Yuan and the others, although not afraid of the Yin Yang Sect, also want to win them over as strong allies, so they can join forces to counter Emei in the future.

  Back in the main hall, Yue Qing said to Zhu Yuanwai: "The one who harmed your daughter with evil magic is not a fox spirit, but rather a Powdered Maiden from the Wushan Yin-Yang Sect."

  Zhu Yuanwai heard him say a word that hit the nail on the head, and suddenly said with joy: "Can Daozhang get rid of it?"

  Yue Qing hesitated and said, "This person has a hundred years of Taoist practice, his magical powers are not weak, and he is also cautious and values his life. Once he discovers that something is amiss, he will immediately flee thousands of miles away, escaping swiftly. If I were to drive him away, it wouldn't be difficult, but can you bear the consequences if he comes back here seeking revenge in the future?"

  Zhu Yuanwai's face turned gloomy again upon hearing this, and the young man said discontentedly: "Can't we just let him do as he pleases and harm people at will?"

  Yue Qing looked at him: "You're indeed full of true energy, if so, are you willing to use yourself as bait and help me lure the demon into a trap?"

  The young man was taken aback for a moment, then loudly said: "What are you afraid of?"

  "Alright! If Feng Wu knew I was here, he wouldn't dare show his face even if he were to die. So, for now, I mustn't reveal myself and instead set up a trap in secret, lest we scare him off like a startled snake. That little scoundrel won't dare take revenge on me, but he'll definitely harbor resentment towards Zhu. We must capture him in one fell swoop and not leave any future troubles. However, you will be in some danger..."

  Young man said: "A great man can bear the weight of heaven and earth, there is something to do and something not to do. As long as the Taoist master can eliminate demons and monsters, restore the righteousness of heaven and earth, I will not regret this life!"

  Feng Wu is almost universally recognized as a sex demon, not only did he seduce the Sword Immortal who was with him, but also frequently sent people to the mortal world to capture young men and women and bring them to Wushan for his enjoyment. After he had his way with them, their primordial yang and yin would be completely lost, and they would eventually turn into a pile of dry bones and die. The development strategy specified by the Wutai Sect is to first establish itself as the orthodox school of mysticism, so it drew a clear line between itself and the evil and demonic forces of the left path. Not only did it not associate with the Huashan Sect, but also severed its relationship with those within the Wutai Sect who were involved in the demonic path. In addition to this, it had to follow the righteous path, which would allow it to accumulate external merits and gain a good reputation. When Yue Qing swept through Shanxi, he had this thought in mind, waiting for the Seven Stars Gathering after which the seven major sects would join hands to sweep away the evil demons and monsters in the Jiangbei region, and bring peace to the land, making the world a better place. Now that he has encountered Feng Wu here, it is just as well to get rid of him along the way.

  "Today is the first day of the month, so I must make up for it, otherwise it will damage my skills." Yue Qing took out six coins from his bag and cast a divination on the table, "Heavenly Fire Same Person". He looked at the young man, "What's your name?"

  Young Yu bowed and said: "I am Yu Youhuang, my ancestral home is in Guilin Prefecture. Since childhood, I have been fond of the legend of sword immortals and chivalrous guests. Because I heard that Sichuan Tianfu Country has many gods and goddesses coming and going between Mount Emei and Qingcheng, so I came to seek immortality and ask for Tao." He spoke while paying attention to Yueqing's expression.

  Yue Qing chuckled and stroked his large mustache: "Have you practiced martial arts?"

  "You Yu said: 'I have been studying under the Stone Forest Eccentric Hero Gate since I was a child, learning the Tianya Dragon Claw Hand and the Bagua Xuanmen Sword. I have already practiced for over ten years.'"

  "Those won't work against Feng Wu." Yue Qing waved his hand, took the Four Treasures of the Study from Zhu Wai, ground the cinnabar and ink, and casually drew twelve talismans. "Take these talismans, stick six on the doors and windows of Miss's embroidery building, carry six with you, when Feng Wu appears, ignite them with fire while reciting the incantation." Yue Qing said another short incantation.

  You Huo took over the talisman with a suspicious face and repeated the incantation several times: "Can this really deal with Feng Wu?"

  "It won't work." Yue Qing explained, "These twelve demon-slaying talismans can still have some effect on small demons with two or three hundred years of cultivation, but they are far from enough to deal with a loose immortal like Feng Wu. However, it can make him think that the official has invited you to come and subdue him, and only with such little magical power would he feel at ease coming down. I'll cast a spell to capture him. But you don't have to be afraid, with me here, even if you are killed by him, I will find a good family for your reincarnation."
