Chapter 617: Shen Gongbao Is a Real Man, Nezha 2 Ends!

As the plot of the film Nezha's Mischievous Son Causes Sea Turmoil progresses, a scene on the screen appears that is both hilarious and deeply moving—

Shen Gongbao's younger brother, Shen Xiaobao, makes his entrance!

And Shen Gongbao's reaction literally left the entire audience in the theater dumbfounded.

The eternally unchanged ice‑cold face, usually tight and full of "no strangers" and "don't mess with me" sternness, at the moment he heard that "brother" sound, melted like the thickest winter ice meeting warm spring sun, swishing away in an instant!

His pupils suddenly dilated, the corners of his mouth involuntarily lifted, and his whole face instantly radiated an almost kindly glow.

Even more astonishing, his originally deep, cold voice instantly turned into a dripping, clamping tone, both surprised and delighted: "Shen Xiaobao?! You… how did you get here?"

He completely ignored the jaw‑dropping monsters around him, leapt forward in a single stride, snatched the youth into his arms, and instinctively patted his hair, as if cradling a reclaimed treasure.

Shen Xiaobao immediately transformed into a fluffy little leopard, nuzzling affectionately against his brother's neck, then reverted to human form, his face full of admiration: "Brother, the compass you gave me led me to you! Dad sent me! Look, brother, I can become human now! You once said that once I cultivated into human form, you'd introduce me to Yu Xu Gong to practice cultivation..."

At this moment, Shen Gongbao was so smooth that not a single stutter appeared!

He smiled and nodded, but a barely perceptible hint of bitterness and awkwardness flashed in his eyes.

This smoothness is a guard he can only lower in front of family he trusts wholeheartedly.

In the theater, Su Xiao Xiao was with her best friend, chewing popcorn while watching intently.

Since the first film Nezha: The Devil Boy's Birth, they have been die‑hard fans of the series.

The premiere—had to be there!

Originally, Su Xiao Xiao didn't pay much attention when the new character appeared, assuming it was just another clueless little demon coming to deliver a head.

Until Shen Gongbao's reaction the instant he heard that "brother"...

"WTF!" Su Xiao Xiao blurted out subconsciously, forgetting to chew the popcorn in her mouth.

Is this still the Shen Gongbao she knows?

Immediately after, the scene of Shen Xiaobao turning back into a fluffy little leopard, cuddling and nuzzling in his brother's neck, instantly hit Su Xiao Xiao's cute spot.

"Oh my god... fluffy... I want to pet!" the little voice inside her screamed.

When Shen Xiaobao reverted to human form, eyes sparkling as he recounted his brother's old promise, Su Xiao Xiao clearly saw Shen Gongbao's smooth nod and the rare, indulgent smile on his face.

In that moment, the warm brotherly bond on the screen made her unable to keep her mouth from curving upward.

Yet that warmth, like a fragile soap bubble, was abruptly cut off as tragedy struck!

Shen Xiaobao returned home happily, only to witness a horrific scene where Lu Tong of Yu Xu Gong, leading a crowd, besieged his father Shen Zhengdao!

His father, Shen Zhengdao, had his arm cut off!

Shen Xiaobao's eyes bulged with rage, he charged forward recklessly, only to be heavily wounded by Lu Tong.

Clinging to his last breath, he fled to his brother Shen Gongbao, collapsed in his arms, pointed at his wound, and, filled with grief and anger, accused: "Brother... is... Nezha..." He died of shock before finishing the sentence.

On the big screen, Shen Gongbao held his brother's still‑warm corpse, trembling all over, silent tears sliding down.

Seeing this, the entire theater fell into dead silence, then erupted with a massive uproar!

"It's over, it's over, Chen Tang Guan is definitely doomed this time!"

"I knew it! Shen Gongbao is definitely going to take revenge!"

"It was definitely him! He must be the one who slaughtered Chen Tang Guan!"

"Sigh, it's the same old revenge plot, no originality…"

Both on and off the screen, prejudice crashed down like a landslide tsunami!

Almost every viewer, upon seeing the subsequent horrific scene of Chen Tang Guan being slaughtered by the Three Sea Dragon Kings together, without exception pointed the blame at Shen Gongbao—surely he did it to avenge his brother!

Even some professional Film Critics, in the darkness, couldn't help but nod lightly, tacitly accepting this obvious answer.

There's no way around it; everyone has always seen Shen Gongbao as an outright villain.

The power of prejudice can be that deeply rooted.

But! The twist came completely unanticipated!

When everyone thought Li Jing and his wife could not escape a deadly hand, the camera shifted—Nezha's parents were actually still alive!!!

Everyone was stunned.

Clearly they were seen being engulfed by dragon breath, how are they still alive?

Could it not have been Shen Gongbao who killed them?

The next second, Li Jing spoke clearly, revealing the true mastermind: "It… it was Wuliang Xianweng!"

Accompanied by Li Jing's narration, the film cut to a flashback.

When Chen Tang Guan was indeed slaughtered by the Three Sea Dragon Kings manipulated by Wuliang Xianweng, Shen Gongbao made the most shocking choice—a soul‑cleansing flash!

He bore the world's misunderstanding, risking his life in the sea of fire to rescue Li Jing and his wife, entrusting their petrified bodies to Hai Ye Cha, solely to leave a witness to expose the truth.

"My family is gone, I have nothing left to cling to!"

After speaking, Shen Gongbao clenched the Lei Gong Whip, charging alone toward the sky‑filled demon dragons, his back resolute.

And the iconic line that spans both films now resonated deeper: "Prejudices in the human heart… are a mountain… no matter how hard you try… you cannot move it…"

Seeing this earth‑shattering twist, the entire cinema's audience was completely stunned!

After a brief silence, various exclamations erupted:

"WTF!!!"

"Bao Ye is a real man!"

"It's lit!!!"

"This twist, 666! Absolutely epic!"

"Awesome! This plot design!"

"......"

No one expected the story to develop like this!

Everyone thought it would be a clichéd revenge plot, but Shen Gongbao ended up bearing a massive injustice and performed a self‑sacrificial heroic act to save lives!

This twist caught everyone off guard, and they all shouted in exhilaration!

"Wuliang Xianweng!!!" Nezha's fury instantly found its true outlet!

He fiercely swung the spearhead, locking eyes with Ao Bing!

No words needed; at the critical moment, the life-and-death tacit understanding instantly returned! A single glance was the signal to fight side by side!

"Ao Bing!"

"Understood!"

The symphony of ice and fire!

The ultimate union of the demon child and the spirit pearl!

Nezha stepped on the Wind Fire Wheel, turning into a raging fire dragon that tore through the heavens!

The Flame Spear danced, burning the heavens and boiling the seas!

Wherever they passed, the demon dragon's scales turned black, and its wails spread across the land!

Ao Bing, following the Ice Soul, summoned the chill of the nine heavens!

Ice cones poured like a violent rain, freezing the dragon's breath and sealing the sea!

He even spared no cost to his origin, condensing an immense frost dragon that perfectly intertwined with Nezha's flame trail!

The ice and fire twin dragons spiraled, crushing their foe!

The frost immobilized the demon dragon, and the blazing flames pursued, reducing it to ashes!

Ice and fire, two extreme forces, not only did not cancel each other, but in perfect coordination burst forth with heaven‑shattering, earth‑shattering power!

The whole Donghai seemed to be churned, with sky‑high waves and surging thunderclouds!

The audience burst into deafening cheers!

"So cool!!!" Su Xiao Xiao excitedly slapped her thigh, hugging her best friend as they screamed.

This surpassed their first joint battle against the heavenly tribulation in shock and harmony, filled with the strength of growth!

The final strike!

Seeing the situation lost, Wuliang Xianweng rashly tried to activate a secret treasure to escape.

Nezha and Ao Bing, in perfect harmony, instantly fused and compressed the Flame Spear and Ice Soul Pearl's power in the air, forming a chaotic light sphere containing destructive and regenerative power!

"Go!"

The sphere, bearing an overwhelming crushing momentum, precisely bombarded Wuliang Xianweng!

Blinding white light swallowed everything!

The white light faded.

Wuliang Xianweng's plot was crushed, and the Three Sea Dragon Kings were severely wounded and sealed.

Amid the ruined wreckage of Chen Tang Guan, the survivors embraced each other in tears.

Nezha leaned on his Flame Spear, gasping, looking at the equally exhausted but steadfast Ao Bing; they shared a smile, everything understood without words.

Shen Gongbao silently went to where his younger brother Shen Xiaobao had died, picked up the shattered compass, and clenched it tightly in his hand.

He looked at no one; his solitary figure stretched long in the sunset, eventually turning into a fleeing light that disappeared into the distance.

He carried his brother's blood feud and his father's safety, venturing deeper into the mist.

His path remained long and difficult.
