With that, the middle-aged man’s speed increased, leaving the Taoist Liu completely unable to react.
The fist was already about to smash into Taoist Liu.
Chen Yang still hadn’t moved.
He waited until the fist was only half a ter away from Taoist Liu before he took action!
Because he realized that Taoist Liu truly couldn’t counterattack, if he didn’t step in now, and Taoist Liu was hit by this punch...
If not dead, he’d be critically injured.
So, he had no choice but to take action!
Chen Yang suddenly rushed out, shielding Taoist Liu, and then easily raised his hand, directly grabbing the fist of the middle-aged man.
"You..."
Chen Yang held the fist firmly, and no matter how much force the middle-aged man applied, he couldn’t budge it at all, unable to move forward or pull out.
"Chen Yang!" The middle-aged man looked up and saw it was Chen Yang, instantly breaking into a cold sweat, his face full of horror.
Before he could react further, Chen Yang had already kicked him.
A heavy kick landed on the middle-aged man’s stomach, and he imdiately flew backward.
Bang.
The trendous force caused him to crash into the cardboard house, creating a large hole.
"Ugh..."
The middle-aged man, having been kicked and flown, still tried to struggle to his feet.
But after just a few attempts, the pain was too much to bear, and he passed out on the ground.
"Phew... Little friend Chen Yang, thankfully you arrived just in ti, otherwise I, a poor Taoist, might have ascended today."
Taoist Liu reacted quickly, and seeing Chen Yang appear, his worried heart was imdiately set at ease.
Chen Yang slightly smiled, turning back to look at him: "I didn’t expect, at your age, you’re still this agile."
Taoist Liu was stunned at first hearing this, then he chuckled awkwardly.
"Haha, walking in the martial world, you must have so skills to save your life, right? I practiced a bit when I was young, and today it finally ca in handy." Taoist Liu said with a smile.
Chen Yang also noticed that this Taoist Liu indeed knew so martial arts, but he’s definitely not a cultivator.
"How did you end up with them? Has Gu Xuanyu co?"
Chen Yang asked.
Taoist Liu’s expression beca serious.
"He shouldn’t have co. If he were here, he would talk to personally. I only ca to clarify things with them, never expected them to act without chivalry, even to the point of attacking an old man like ." Taoist Liu said.
Chen Yang, hearing this, didn’t say much.
He believed Taoist Liu’s words.
"You’re quite naive too, trusting the Gu Family so easily. If I hadn’t discovered this early today, the unconscious person lying there would probably be you." Chen Yang said.
Taoist Liu looked embarrassed; indeed, the matter was quite risky.
"As long as you’re fine. Since Gu Xuanyu isn’t here, let’s go. The construction team is waiting for you to designate the route for them to start work."
Knowing Gu Xuanyu wasn’t here, Chen Yang didn’t intend to stay any longer.
So minions are not worth getting too concerned about.
"Alright."
Taoist Liu nodded quickly, and then he left the mining site with Chen Yang, went down the mountain, and headed to the fields to designate the construction team’s work.
Although there were fixed blueprints, to ensure everything was foolproof, every ti they opened a new waterway, the construction team would confirm one side.
Only after being 100% sure there were no issues would they continue construction.
This process wasn’t complicated; Taoist Liu could imdiately tell if there were any problems.
Once it was confird that there were no issues with the construction site, the rumbling noises quickly arose, and the construction team started working.
Excavators opened up the waterways, and the workers were all busy with their tasks.
"Little friend Chen Yang, I really must thank you for today’s matter. If you hadn’t shown up in ti, I might have been in real danger today."
On the way back to the village, Taoist Liu couldn’t help but ntion the earlier events, thanking Chen Yang twice.
When the incident occurred, Taoist Liu still looked normal.
But now he was unusually nervous, and it was easy to see from his facial expression.
"Protecting you is part of our deal; you don’t have to be so polite." Chen Yang said with a slight smile.
Taoist Liu, hearing this, couldn’t help but smile as well.
"True, we do have such a deal, but I still must express my gratitude."
Chen Yang, hearing these words, didn’t reply and continued walking silently toward the village.
Seeing that Chen Yang didn’t want to discuss this, Taoist Liu didn’t continue with it but switched the topic to discuss the matter of the Taoist temple.
Logically speaking, after a whole night, the design should be ready.
Chen Yang thought the sa, but Li Han hadn’t sent it over yet.
"It hasn’t co yet. Once it’s sent to , I’ll show it to you imdiately." Chen Yang said after glancing at his phone.
"Alright."
Taoist Liu nodded and then refrained from speaking further, following Chen Yang back to the clinic.
Once ho, there wasn’t much to do.
Chen Yang thought of tending to the herbal fields today.
Just as he prepared his tools to go to the herbal fields, his phone rang in his pocket.
He took it out to see that Li Han had sent the design over.
There were six images in total, representing three designs.
Each design had two images, one as a beautified picture and the other simply showing the layout, designed comprehensively.
Seeing the pictures arrive, Chen Yang imdiately called Taoist Liu over.
This Taoist Liu was truly curious about Brother Eagle, Wangcai, and the herbs in the yard.
Even though Wangcai had chased and bitten him yesterday, he was still clinging to Wangcai today.
The way he looked at Wangcai was as if he’d seen a treasure, his eyes gleaming.
Chen Yang couldn’t guess what was going on in the old guy’s mind.
"Old Taoist, the design for your temple is done; do you want to have a look?" Chen Yang looked up and asked Taoist Liu.
Hearing this, Taoist Liu imdiately ran over.
"The temple design is ready? Let see." Taoist Liu said excitedly.
Chen Yang handed him the phone.
"There are three sets in total. Take a good look yourself. If you have any special requests, you can make them, as long as they’re reasonable." Chen Yang said.
"Okay."
Taoist Liu nodded and carefully checked through them on the phone.
This usually unserious seeming old Taoist beca much more focused than most people when he was being serious.
He kept swiping back and forth, examining the three design plans in detail.
After several rounds of left and right scrutiny, he finally decided on the second set.
"Little friend Chen Yang, please build the second set for a poor Taoist like . It’s ancient and elegant, fitting for soone like ." Taoist Liu said.
Chen Yang listened and took a closer look at the second set as well.
He also found the second set suitable; the other two had too strong a modern style and didn’t capture the essence of a Taoist temple.
Only the second set was pure wooden structure, with a simplistic design, making it very fitting.
"Are there any other requests?"
Chen Yang asked.
"No special requests. Just build the temple well, and I’ll handle the offerings." Taoist Liu thought for a mont and said.
Hearing that there were no further requests, Chen Yang didn’t say more.
He picked up the phone to send a ssage to Li Han, confirming they wanted the second set.
"Alright, I’ll arrange for the construction team today; the work will officially start tomorrow." Li Han quickly replied.
"Okay, thank you for your hard work."
Chen Yang replied, and then there was no more information from Li Han’s side, so he put away his phone.
