Chapter 90: Boundary Beast
"You want to see that Taiyi guy?"
Shen Gongbao frowned; he hadn't expected that Ao Yifan would come looking for him again, and it was actually to go see Taiyi True Person.
In his heart, Shen Gongbao truly disliked meeting Taiyi True Person.
Because the other party has extraordinary talent but a lazy nature, and is deeply favored by their master, compared to Shen Gongbao, they could be said to be two extremes.
Every time he saw the other party, Shen Gongbao would feel extremely irritable.
"Hehe, fellow Daoist Shen, as I say, you really don't need to be so hostile toward fellow Daoist Taiyi; he's a very easy person to get along with, right?"
Ao Yifan said with a smile.
"Forget it, I won't bother with your affairs; you just need to remember our plan!"
Having said that, Shen Gongbao brought Ao Yifan flying toward Taiyi True Person's residence.
Although Shen Gongbao has now been removed from his position as Captain of the Monster Hunting Team,
his former prestige still remains; along the way, many ordinary disciples of the Chan Sect still proactively salute him.
Ao Yifan noticed that, although Shen Gongbao appeared cold, the faint smile curling at the corner of his mouth showed that he was actually enjoying it quite a bit.
"Taiyi, it's right there; go there yourself!"
Pointing at a mountain peak surrounded by immortal aura, Shen Gongbao said.
"Alright!"
Having said that, Ao Yifan flew toward the mountain peak.
"Who goes there? This is Taiyi True Person's immortal abode; idle persons may not intrude!"
Ao Yifan had just approached the mountain peak when he saw two small figures blocking his way.
Boundary Beasts!
Looking at these two little things, Ao Yifan instantly recognized them.
According to legend, these little fellows can block anyone for three seconds, which made Ao Yifan curious: if he used his peak Taiyi Golden Immortal strength to unleash the World-Destroying Devil Spear with all his might, could they also block it for three seconds?
However, after thinking it over, Ao Yifan gave up.
These two little fellows are quite interesting; keeping them as pets for Ne Zha later wouldn't be bad, so I won't smash them.
"I am a friend of Taiyi True Person; I have come to visit him on business—go and relay the message."
Ao Yifan said.
"A friend of the True Person? We don't know you."
The Boundary Beast resembling Ne Zha sized up Ao Yifan from head to toe and said,
"Exactly, we're quite smart—don't think you can fool us!"
The other Boundary Beast, which greatly resembled Ting Quan, said with a serious expression,
Ao Yifan looked speechless.
Just then, Ao Yifan saw a familiar figure fly past behind the two Boundary Beasts—it was Taiyi True Person's Flying Pig.
"Pig brother, pig brother, I've come to see Taiyi True Person!"
Ao Yifan shouted at the Flying Pig.
Hearing that, the Flying Pig's two big ears twitched, its eyes rolled, and it spotted Ao Yifan.
The Flying Pig is very smart; it knows Ao Yifan's relationship with Taiyi True Person.
Immediately, it landed between the two Boundary Beasts, swept its big ears aside to push them apart, and gestured for Ao Yifan to follow inside.
"Indeed, he really is a friend of the True Person!"
With the Flying Pig's certification, the two Boundary Beasts had no doubt—Ao Yifan truly hadn't deceived them.
"What should we do? If the True Person finds out we blocked his friend outside, will we be punished when blame comes down?"
The Boundary Beast resembling Ting Quan looked a bit flustered.
Meanwhile, the Boundary Beast resembling Ne Zha rolled its eyes and said, "Oh dear, you're in trouble—just now you stopped the True Person's friend; watch me go complain to the True Person!"
"Huh? You, you—it was clearly you who stopped the True Person's friend, yet you're the one crying foul first."
The Boundary Beast resembling Ting Quan immediately objected.
"Hmph, it's clearly you!"
"It's you!"
"Come on, let's duel!"
"If we duel, we duel—who's afraid of whom?"
"……"
A clinking clanging sound came from nearby; Taiyi True Person couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth—he didn't need to probe with his divine sense to know those two silly Boundary Beasts had started fighting.
"Good heavens, with my Taiyi True Person's lifelong reputation, how could I have such two stupid subordinates?"
Taiyi True Person thought to himself secretly.
"Cough cough"
After a light cough, Taiyi True Person immediately changed the subject, lest Ao Yifan notice those two idiots outside.
"So, you came especially to tell me that my disciple, your wife, is already pregnant?"
Upon mentioning this, Taiyi True Person's mood improved considerably.
The reputations of Jin Zha and Mu Zha as geniuses have already spread throughout the Jade Void Palace.
As for this, Taiyi True Person also felt quite envious.
Therefore, these days he has been eagerly awaiting good news from Ao Yifan's side.
"Indeed, she's already pregnant!"
Ao Yifan said: "Moreover, I have a feeling that my third son, Ne Zha, is very likely to have even greater talent than his two older brothers."
Like that! That's really great!
Taiyi Zhenren rubbed his hands excitedly and said, "In that case, I must start preparing a gift for my precious disciple right now—what should I give?"
Seeing Taiyi Zhenren's excited state, Ao Yifan couldn't help but smile.
So it's no surprise that Taiyi Zhenren dotes on his disciples—it's just his nature.
Even though Nezha is still in his mother's womb, Taiyi Zhenren has already begun preparing a gift.
"True Person, there's no need to be so polite. You've seen that Jinzha and Muzha are smart, well-behaved good kids. Even if you don't prepare a gift for Nezha, he will surely respect you greatly as his master!"
Ao Yifan said with a smile.
"How can that not work!"
Taiyi Zhenren put on a solemn face and said, "It's only natural for a master to prepare a gift for a disciple. Let me think—I'll definitely give my obedient disciple a big gift when the time comes!"
Upon hearing that, Ao Yifan's smile grew even wider.
"By the way, Taiyi Dao friend, I came here not only to tell you about Nezha, but also to ask a favor."
Ao Yifan suddenly spoke up.
"What is it? Just say it—I'll definitely get it done!"
Taiyi Zhenren patted his own belly and said,
"Then thank you, Taiyi Dao friend. I once had some misunderstandings with Hetong Dao friend, and now several of my children have also joined the Chan Sect. I think I should apologize to him in person to ease tensions."
Ao Yifan said.
"You mean you want to meet Hetong, my master's nephew?"
Taiyi Zhenren blinked in surprise, never expecting Ao Yifan to actually want to meet Hetong.
"No problem, I'll take you there right away!"
In high spirits, Taiyi Zhenren immediately summoned a flying pig, preparing to personally take Ao Yifan to Crane Nest.
"Two idiots!"
But upon seeing the two boundary beasts missing teeth from their fight, Taiyi Zhenren couldn't help but frown.
But given his good temper, he didn't scold the two boundary beasts; he simply rode the flying pig and flew toward Crane Nest.
After Taiyi Zhenren left, the two boundary beasts that had been fighting each other immediately separated.
The boundary beast that looked like Xiao Sa gave a hehe laugh and said, "See? I told you—if we act dumb, the True Person won't bear to scold us."
"You're not wrong, but could you go easier next time? You knocked out my tooth!"
"If I hit too lightly, I can't fool the True Person, and besides, you're not exactly gentle either—what right do you have to criticize me?"
"Geez, hearing your tone, you're not convinced, are you?"
"I'm not convinced—let's settle this one-on-one!"
"One-on-one it is—do you really think I'm afraid of you?"
