Chapter 103
When Nezha used the invisibility talisman to sneak attack Ao Guang, Gu Xiu hid his figure in the dark nearby, secretly watching this scene.
Hearing Nezha use heavenly numbers as an excuse, Gu Xiu shook his head.
"This Chan Sect is truly shameless from top to bottom. When committing evil deeds and bullying the weak, they always use heavenly numbers as an excuse. However, today's heavenly numbers indicate that Ao Guang can escape a calamity."
As he spoke, Gu Xiu glanced at the Heavenly Court not far away. Amidst the swirling clouds and mist, the pavilions and palaces were scattered, golden and brilliant.
However, this was just a fake Heavenly Court transformed by magic, which is why the door was closed tightly, revealing a strange silence.
With Nezha's ability, he couldn't transform it, it should be Master Taiyi's handiwork.
Gu Xiu pondered secretly, waved his hand, and the illusory Heavenly Palace in front of him disappeared instantly.
Ao Guang then realized that the South Heaven Gate he came to and the Heavenly Palace he saw were transformed by someone, not the real Heavenly Palace at all.
"You thief, you even dare to impersonate the Heavenly Court, I must report you." Ao Guang was furious, his voice full of anger.
Nezha sneered: "Old loach, then let's see if you have the life to go."
Having said that, Nezha's eyes flashed with fierce light, and he started to pull out the dragon scales on Ao Guang's body.
Every time a dragon scale was pulled out, it was accompanied by Ao Guang's painful roar, and blood splattered.
"Let me pull out all the scales on your old loach body, and then dig out your dragon eyes and give them to Master Taiyi to put in the cave as lighting decorations." Nezha's expression became more and more crazy. The more Ao Guang screamed, the more excited he became, and his hands didn't stop for a moment.
Gu Xiu saw this, summoned the Water Fire Qilin, ripples appeared in the void beside him, the Water Fire Qilin flew out of the Water Fire Gourd, and its four hooves stood in the air.
Gu Xiu gave an order, and when Nezha wanted to continue committing evil deeds, the Water Qilin turned into a blue light and rushed towards Nezha instantly.
The Water Qilin with Golden Immortal cultivation was not something Nezha could block alone, and he was instantly knocked flying.
Before Nezha could react, the Water Qilin stepped on Nezha with its four hooves, directly knocking Nezha down to the mortal world.
Ao Guang was stunned. In the past, the Dragon Clan and the Qilin Clan were mortal enemies. He didn't expect that he would be saved by a Qilin.
After saving Ao Guang, Gu Xiu didn't intend to show himself.
Ao Guang wanted to go to the Heavenly Court to file a complaint, but was stopped by Taiyi and Nezha.
Now he wanted to destroy Taiyi's plan, so he operated the space power and threw Ao Guang directly at the South Heaven Gate.
Ao Guang was in a trance and was slightly stunned. He had arrived at the real South Heaven Gate.
It seems someone was helping him, and he wanted to file a complaint even more.
The heavenly soldiers on guard saw Ao Guang appear suddenly and were also stunned, asking for his intention.
Ao Guang complained, and after confirming his identity, the heavenly soldiers let Ao Guang enter the South Heaven Gate.
Seeing Ao Guang enter the South Heaven Gate, Gu Xiu smiled slightly.
"Taiyi indulged Nezha to beat the righteous god of the Heavenly Court, the Yaksha, to death, and also made a fake Heavenly Court to let Nezha block Ao Guang from going to heaven to file an imperial complaint. Now that Ao Guang has entered the South Heaven Gate, Master Taiyi's plan is considered a failure."
"Although the Heavenly Court can't do anything to Master Taiyi, I believe Haotian will remember this account."
While pondering, he noticed a graceful figure riding a green phoenix coming up from the lower realm to the heavenly realm.
Looking closely, it was Princess Longji.
Princess Longji was also surprised to see Gu Xiu: "It's you, why are you here?"
Gu Xiu smiled calmly: "I should be the one asking. Princess Longji, why aren't you practicing in the Qingluan Palace, reflecting on your mistakes, and running to heaven?"
Princess Longji frowned slightly: "This is none of your business. As a disciple of the Jie Sect, why aren't you preparing for the Investiture of the Gods and running to heaven? Could it be that you intend to admit defeat to the Chan Sect?"
The Investiture of the Gods was aimed at the Jie Sect, and admitting defeat was useless. Gu Xiu sighed: "If admitting defeat were useful, I would hope that my Jie Sect would admit defeat."
Princess Longji's eyes were full of doubt: "What do you mean by that?"
"Nothing. Princess Longji, are you going into the Heavenly Palace? This is my first time coming to the Heavenly Court, do you want to take me for a tour?"
Princess Longji snorted: "I have been demoted, and why should I take you?"
"Then I'll go for a tour myself." Gu Xiu stopped paying attention to Princess Longji and walked towards the South Heaven Gate.
Princess Longji also followed.
The two came to the South Heaven Gate. The heavenly soldiers on guard saw Princess Longji and let them enter without blocking, and Gu Xiu also followed in.
"Why did you come to heaven?" Princess Longji asked after entering the South Heaven Gate.
"Chan Sect disciple Nezha killed the Dragon Clan in the East Sea, and Ao Guang went to heaven to file an imperial complaint. I am very curious about the result."
Saying this, Gu Xiu went to the Lingxiao Palace.
Princess Longji heard that there was such a thing, and she became curious, so she followed Gu Xiu.
"Why are you following me?" Gu Xiu asked.
Princess Longji said somewhat arrogantly: "Who wants to follow you? I also intend to go to the Lingxiao Palace."
Gu Xiu shook his head and ignored her, and the two eavesdropped on the situation inside outside the Lingxiao Palace.
Inside the Lingxiao Palace.
Incense curled, and immortal music drifted.
Haotian sat high on the throne, his body exuding majestic light.
The immortal officials on both sides had solemn faces, and their eyes cast respectfully towards Haotian.
Recently, demons have been making trouble in the Three Realms again. Haotian wanted to ask for the opinions of the immortals, who was willing to go and subdue the demons, but no one spoke.
He just wanted to get angry.
At this time, the voice of the heavenly official came from outside: "East Sea Dragon King Ao Guang requests an audience outside!"
Ao Guang not staying in the East Sea of the lower realm, but running to heaven to request an audience, made Haotian very puzzled, so he had to summon Ao Guang in.
As soon as Ao Guang entered, he complained.
"Ao Guang pays respects to the Great Heavenly Venerable, Your Majesty, you must make the decision for this old dragon!"
Seeing Ao Guang's face covered in dirt, the immortals whispered to each other, guessing what happened, but now in the Lingxiao Palace, they didn't dare to discuss it.
Haotian looked up at Ao Guang, feeling puzzled.
"East Sea Dragon King, why is your face covered in dirt, what happened? What do you need me to make the decision for?"
"Replying to Your Majesty, it is like this. Master Taiyi indulged his disciple Nezha to commit evil deeds in the East Sea, beat the patrolling Yaksha Li Gen, and even killed many of my clansmen, and even my seventh son died in Nezha's hands. Please, Your Majesty, make the decision for this old dragon!"
Ao Guang cried bitterly, telling Nezha's various evil deeds in the East Sea one by one, as well as coming to heaven to file an imperial complaint, being intercepted by Nezha halfway, and even making a fake Heavenly Court to deceive him.
Haotian frowned slightly: "Chan Sect disciple, so bold, even killing the righteous god appointed by my Heavenly Court."
But the Heavenly Court was weak and couldn't do anything to the Chan Sect, which gave Haotian a headache.
Haotian pondered for a moment. Last time he made the Twelve Golden Immortals of Jade Void bow down, the Twelve Golden Immortals attacked heaven, and he went to Zixiao Palace to cry, and the Dao Ancestor formulated the Investiture of the Gods list.
If he sent heavenly soldiers and generals to preside over justice for Ao Guang now, if the Chan Sect ignored the Heavenly Court again, and even attacked again, he could go to Zixiao Palace to cry again.
The child who cries gets milk.
Thinking this way, Haotian opened his mouth.
"Taiyi indulged his disciple to commit evil deeds, which is a great mistake. It is normal for you to want an explanation for Nezha killing your son. In this way, I will let Giant Spirit God and two great generals lead one hundred thousand heavenly soldiers and generals to Chen Tang Guan to ask Li Jing for an explanation. Nezha must pay with his life. If he refuses, you can directly exterminate Li Jing's family to pay for your son and clansmen."
"Many thanks, Your Majesty." Ao Guang was moved to tears when he heard this.
After the new Heavenly Court was established, because of the lack of manpower, Haotian sent people to recruit the Dragon Clan.
The Four Sea Dragon Kings thought the Dragon Clan was weak, so they agreed to surrender to the Heavenly Court. It was originally a last resort, but now in Ao Guang's view, this decision was really good.
Outside the Lingxiao Palace, Gu Xiu and Princess Longji were eavesdropping.
Hearing Haotian's decision, Gu Xiu was slightly stunned.
Haotian was so tough, what was he planning?
Although he couldn't understand, as long as it was aimed at the Chan Sect, it was fine.
Princess Longji also frowned slightly, not understanding Haotian's intention.
Nezha was a disciple of the Chan Sect. Sending heavenly soldiers and generals to Chen Tang Guan to ask for an explanation and letting Nezha pay with his life was simply unrealistic in her view.
The Chan Sect was a Sage's sect, how could it be threatened by the Heavenly Court? Maybe it would anger the Chan Sect and they would attack heaven again.
She looked at Gu Xiu: "Do you know the intention of the Heavenly Emperor doing this?"
"Intention? What intention? Ao Guang went to heaven to file an imperial complaint, and the Heavenly Court stood up for him, which is very good. It shows that the Heavenly Court takes care of the younger brothers who have surrendered, which can definitely win people's hearts." Gu Xiu said, pretending to be stupid.
Longji pondered slightly, feeling that Gu Xiu's words made sense, but the Heavenly Court simply didn't have this ability, and fighting hard against the Chan Sect was like hitting a stone with an egg.
Seeing that Giant Spirit God and the two great generals had received the order and had already sent troops to the lower realm.
Gu Xiu also wanted to leave.
"Alright, I won't chat with you anymore, I'm going to Chen Tang Guan to watch the fun."
After coming out of the South Heaven Gate, Gu Xiu went to the lower realm.
Princess Longji saw this, thought about it, and followed.
When going to the lower realm, he noticed Princess Longji behind him following.
Gu Xiu stopped and waited for the other party: "Princess Longji, you had something to do in heaven, why did you come down?"
Princess Longji snorted: "This is none of your business, right?"
"You went to heaven, wouldn't it be to get your marriage information from the Old Man of the Moon?" Gu Xiu asked casually.
Princess Longji didn't deny it: "I do want to know my marriage from the Old Man of the Moon, but the Old Man of the Moon didn't tell me at all. So I learned that the Old Man of the Moon is going to visit a friend recently, and the marriage book is usually kept in his residence, not on his body, so this time I want to secretly check my information in the marriage book, and by the way, find my marriage line on the marriage plate, so I can expose your lies."
Princess Longji cared very much about Gu Xiu telling her that she would be forcibly matched with Hong Jin by Fuyuan Immortal and the Old Man of the Moon.
Gu Xiu smiled calmly: "Anyway, it's not my business, believe it or not, it's up to you. You decide for yourself, let's go to Chen Tang Guan to watch the fun."
Not long after, the two came to Chen Tang Guan.
Above Chen Tang Guan, dark clouds covered the sky, and thunder rolled.
The mighty heavenly soldiers and generals stood in the clouds.
Ao Guang's eyes were wide open, looking at Li Jing below.
"Li Jing, you failed to teach your son, indulging that evil son Nezha to make waves in the East Sea, beating the patrolling Yaksha Li Gen to death, and killing my clansmen and even my seventh son. I have already reported to the Heavenly Court. Hand over Nezha quickly, otherwise, today I will definitely make your Li family pay with their lives for my son and clansmen!"
Ao Guang's eyes burned with raging anger, his sharp gaze looking straight at Li Jing.
In the Li Mansion, Li Jing looked at the black heavenly soldiers and generals in the sky, as well as Ao Guang in the clouds, feeling anxious.
"Brother Ao Guang, several generals, I don't know where Nezha is now. Even if I wanted to hand him over, I couldn't."
Li Jing regretted a little. When Nezha was born, he should have beaten Nezha to death, otherwise, it wouldn't have brought the disaster of extermination to the Li family.
Ao Guang glared: "Li Jing, stop quibbling! Your evil son has committed such a monstrous crime, and you say you don't know his whereabouts? I think you are clearly shielding him!"
The voice sounded like thunder, ringing over Chen Tang Guan.
Sweat beads rolled down Li Jing's forehead, very anxious: "Brother Ao Guang, I, Li Jing, swear to heaven, I really don't know where Nezha is now. If there is half a lie, I am willing to be struck by lightning."
"Don't worry, this matter was all caused by that rebellious son Nezha. When he comes back, I will definitely end him myself and give you an explanation."
Giant Spirit God walked up, his voice like a bell, and shouted loudly: "Li Jing, the Heavenly Emperor's order is to require Nezha to pay with his life. If you end Nezha yourself, we won't make things difficult for your Li family. We will return to report immediately. I hope you say what you do. If you deceive us, we will definitely make your Li Mansion and the entire Chen Tang Guan leave no one alive!"
Li Jing's cold sweat fell like rain, and he nodded repeatedly: "Definitely, definitely, General, please rest assured, I, Li Jing, will never break my promise."
Ao Guang snorted coldly: "Li Jing, I will believe you this time, but you had better find Nezha as soon as possible, otherwise my East Sea will not end with your Li family!"
Li Jing nodded repeatedly, not daring to have the slightest disobedience.
And everyone in the Li Mansion had pale faces and was terrified.
"What are you still standing there for? Search for Nezha's whereabouts everywhere!" Li Jing shouted.
Gu Xiu and Princess Longji had been watching the events in the Li Mansion from behind.
Princess Longji asked: "Do you think Nezha will appear?"
Gu Xiu frowned slightly. Originally, Nezha would appear.
But Nezha was hit by the Water Qilin and fell to the mortal world, so he would probably be seriously injured if he didn't die.
"If Nezha sees the heavenly soldiers and generals coming to Chen Tang Guan, he will definitely rush back. Let's watch the show with peace of mind."
Princess Longji nodded, her beautiful eyes fixed on the situation ahead.
She really wanted to know what Nezha would do and what the Chan Sect's attitude would be.
While everyone in the Li Mansion was busy looking for Nezha, a laugh suddenly came from the sky: "Even the Heavenly Court dares to come and find trouble with me, you are tired of living!"
Everyone looked in the direction of the voice and saw Nezha stepping on the Wind Fire Wheels, holding the Universe Ring, rushing towards this side, his face full of arrogance.
Li Jing saw Nezha appear and said angrily: "Rebellious son, you still dare to come back!"
Nezha didn't care and said: "Father, they are bullying our Li family like this, how can I hide? Let me kill them all."
"Shut up! You rebellious son, you still don't know how to repent! Rebellious son, truly a rebellious son, actually making my Li family face the disaster of extermination." Saying this, Li Jing couldn't help but cry loudly.
Looking at Li Jing crying bitterly, Nezha was very puzzled: "Father, what did I do wrong? They bullied us, why should we swallow our anger? Just these heavenly soldiers and generals can't do anything to me."
Li Jing raised his head, his face full of tears, and shouted angrily: "You committed a big mistake and still don't know how to reflect. Monster, I shouldn't have been soft-hearted and kept you in the world."
Seeing Nezha come out, Giant Spirit God opened his mouth: "Li Jing, I hope you keep your words just now, end Nezha yourself, let Nezha pay with his life, and we will return to report."
The following things were about the same as the original fate, Li Jing drew his sword to kill Nezha.
In the clouds, Gu Xiu took a look and pondered slightly.
"Is it finally going to this step? Next, won't it be Nezha returning flesh to his mother and bones to his father, and then being resurrected by Master Taiyi with lotus roots?"
Gu Xiu's sudden words made Princess Longji a little puzzled.
"What do you mean by what you just said?"
Gu Xiu smiled slightly: "Don't worry, you'll know when you watch slowly."
