Chapter 390

Mortal World.

Zhaoge.

"Great King, this time ten suns across the sky, the number of dead common people is countless, crops are burned, food and grass are cut off, civil unrest is imminent!"

Grand Tutor Wen Zhong's expression was tragic.

King Zhou had a bitter face and said: "This time, it's not me offending Heaven again."

Wen Zhong sighed silently, feeling that when the dynasty's destiny was about to end, it was really not up to people at all.

Underworld.

Yanluo Palace.

King Yanluo rubbed his face fiercely. The Jade Emperor suddenly added a burden to him, and it wasn't an ordinary burden.

"Bring me the souls of the nine Golden Crows."

King Yanluo said with a dark face. Causing such a disaster in the mortal world should have fallen into the eighteenth layer of hell, never to be reincarnated. But they were the Jade Emperor's sons, and King Yanluo still had to think about how to open the case.

"King Yan, good news."

The judge came hurriedly and said in a low voice: "Didn't find their souls, it's about shape and spirit destroyed."

This was indeed good news.

King Yanluo patted his chest, feeling that he had one less hot potato.

As for the Jade Emperor's sons having their shape and spirit destroyed, King Yanluo expressed deep sorrow.

"However, there is another piece of bad news."

The judge said in a low voice.

King Yanluo leaned his ear, only hearing the judge say: "This time, the ten suns across the sky were triggered because of Yaoji, and the Golden Crow disaster didn't burn Yaoji to death, but burned her husband to death."

King Yanluo immediately patted the table and said: "Send to the Heavenly Court immediately!"

This time, the Golden Crow disaster killed half of the common people, and every family in the mortal world was in mourning. Yang Yang Tianyou, as a mortal, being roasted to death was not strange. It was just that King Yanluo couldn't keep his soul in the Underworld.

King Yanluo knew that the root of the ten suns across the sky was the Jade Emperor's Golden Crow son capturing Yang Jian and Yang Jiao, being hung and beaten by these two people, having no way to deal with it, and then gathering to trigger the great array.

The Yang family's sons were also not to be trifled with.

Heavenly Court, Yaochi.

"It was the Daoist Cihang of the Chan Sect who pleaded for all living beings in the Three Realms, and Gu Qing let me go."

The little Golden Crow was deeply grieved. In front of the Jade Emperor, he talked about the process of the matter, his head raised slightly, facing the Jade Emperor who was somewhat disheartened, and said: "This time ten suns across the sky roasted half of the common people in the world, steamed rivers, burned crops, and made the world miserable. We were chased and killed, which was really a great pleasure. It's just Jade Emperor, you lost nine sons, do you regret it?"

Among the ten Golden Crows, the little Golden Crow was considered a kind-hearted good person. The formation caused harm to half of the common people in the world and also caused the death of nine brothers, making the little Golden Crow sad and self-blaming, and also thinking that all this should be blamed on the Jade Emperor.

"Gods should be heartless."

The Jade Emperor was silent for a moment and said: "Yuanshi Yuanshi Tianzun is really good at pretending to be a good person!"

Seeing this, the little Golden Crow stood up directly and said: "Then from now on, there is no father-son affection between us, only the distinction between monarch and minister. The Three Realms cannot be without the sun for a moment, and this minister is going to fulfill his duties."

The little Golden Crow said goodbye to the Jade Emperor and turned to head toward the Sun Palace.

The Jade Emperor sat silently, like a sculpture.

"Jade Emperor..."

King Yanluo stepped forward to report, talking about Yang Yang Tianyou's matter, making the Jade Emperor immediately lively.

Yang Yang Tianyou!

In the Jade Emperor's heart, this was the culprit of everything.

Can't beat Gu Qing, can't beat you?

Mount Putuo, Luojia Cave.

This is the holy realm of sea and sky, with abundant water and smoke, but since the ten suns across the sky, golden light has appeared here from time to time, the surrounding seawater naturally boiled, and the original dense bamboo forest and exquisite lotus pond were all burned into a withered yellow world at this time.

Gu Qing sat cross-legged, reached out and took the mutton-fat jade clean bottle, drank wildly, smoke coming out of his whole body's orifices, combining with the surrounding heat, turning into rays of misty rainbow light.

The Nine-Return Sun True Scripture had already reached the realm of Nine Returns of Mysterious Power after swallowing nine Golden Crows. Gu Qing's whole body had been completely reshaped, and he himself had reached the peak of Heavenly Immortality. Among them, the nine suns were circulating and vibrating in his body, also making Gu Qing radiate heat from time to time.

"The next step is 【Gathering Yang into One】."

Gu Qing pondered. After completely mastering his own power, he could try to experience the laws of Golden Immortals.

"Calmed down?"

Daoist Cihang brought compassion and said gently.

This Daoist Cihang really looks like Dao Dao Bai Feng...

Gu Qing collected his thoughts and nodded silently. He knew the power of this Daoist Cihang, and had no intention of overstepping in his heart. After saying goodbye to Daoist Cihang, he looked at the sky. At this moment, his gaze merged with the sunlight, and everything in the mortal world was in Gu Qing's eyes.

At Taoshan, Yaoji was still bound by chains. At this time, she was heartbroken and lay powerlessly on the lotus platform.

Zhaoge City, King Zhou's wine pool dried up, the meat forest turned to ash, and he was clapping the table wildly.

Xiqi City, Ji Chang and Ji Fa were in distress, and the immortals of the Chan Sect sent food.

"..."

Gu Qing saw a person, stood up, and wanted to say goodbye to Daoist Cihang.

"Go."

Daoist Cihang came under the order of Yuanshi Yuanshi Tianzun to persuade him, fearing that after Gu Qing swallowed the little Golden Crow, he would weld himself in the Sun Palace.

Gu Qing turned into a rainbow and left.

Daoist Cihang used the mutton-fat jade clean bottle to draw out water and sprinkled it toward Mount Putuo. This Mount Putuo withered wood met spring, and everything regained vitality. Then Daoist Cihang burned incense and communicated with Yuanshi Yuanshi Tianzun.

"My Chan Sect has Gu Qing as the vanguard, this Investiture of the Gods war will be invincible!"

Daoist Cihang said confidently.

Being able to swallow the Jade Emperor's nine sons, the accumulation in Gu Qing's body had reached a terrifying level. With such power gathered in one place, who in the Intercepting Sect could stop it?

"Gu Qing will not get involved."

Yuanshi Yuanshi Tianzun denied it directly.

Mortal World.

A person who was pitch black, limping on one leg, and fighting for food with a dog suddenly raised his head, saw Gu Qing beside him, and was full of joy. He leaned to Gu Qing's leg and said: "Great, great, it's you, tell me, where is my master?"

This was the Xiaotian Dog. Yang Jian split the Taoshan and fought with the Golden Crow Prince. Xiaotian Dog was implicated, his leg broke, and he was truly a stray dog at this time, looking for Yang Jian's whereabouts.

"I just don't understand."

Gu Qing looked sideways at Xiaotian Dog's leg and said: "Sai Wen broke his leg and could also release telekinesis. You just broke a leg, and your magic power and nose are all useless?"

Gu Qing suspected that this Xiaotian Dog was selling misery.

Xiaotian Dog hehe stuck out his tongue.

Reaching out a hand, Gu Qing's hand released golden light, and Xiaotian Dog's broken leg recovered rapidly. But in the blink of an eye, Xiaotian Dog was jumping up and down beside Gu Qing.

"Woof woof, woof woof."

Xiaotian Dog barked twice, expressing his gratitude, and then cast a spell, calling out "Heaven and Earth are infinite, tracking for ten thousand miles" to search for Yang Jian's whereabouts in the Three Realms.

"So it's there!"

After a while, Xiaotian Dog determined the direction and ran wildly, heading toward Mount Hua.

Gu Qing raised his head, looked at the sky, turned into a rainbow, swept past Xiaotian Dog's cloud path, and arrived at Mount Hua a step ahead.

On Mount Hua, there were white banners everywhere. The common people had gone through a disaster and naturally wanted to beg for the gods. And the common people on Mount Hua headed toward the Nezha Palace.

"Just hope Nezha Prince can protect us."

The common people's request was just to be full, warm, and live well.

"Nezha Prince?"

Among the disaster victims, there was a pair of middle-aged parents. When the man heard Nezha Prince, his face changed. He inquired about Nezha Prince's news from the people beside him. After everything matched step by step, Li Jing was furious and said: "This little beast violated the Heavenly Rules, and actually wants to secretly resurrect?"

Li Jing immediately picked up his tools and wanted to destroy Nezha's corpse.

"Old Master, just let Nezha go."

Lady Li hugged Li Jing's leg and requested.

"I let him go, can Heaven let me go?"

Li Jing was not alone. On his shoulders were the common people of Chentang Pass, so he picked up the golden mace and walked toward the Nezha Palace. Breaking into the temple, he really saw that the one worshipped in the temple was Nezha. Without a word, he wanted to destroy Nezha's statue.

"Father, the child has already repented."

Nezha said to Li Jing in a good voice: "For the past three years, the child has been doing good deeds."

"No matter how much you say, you just want to resurrect!"

Li Jing said coldly: "I studied under Master Du'e of West Mount Kunlun and know a lot about Daoist arts. Your petty tricks can't deceive me!" While speaking, Li Jing threw the golden mace in his hand, hitting Nezha's statue squarely. In an instant, Nezha's corpse was destroyed, and the statue turned into dust.

Li Jing looked at all this blankly, sighed, and walked out of the Nezha Palace.

Not long after he left, the Nezha Palace suddenly dissipated into smoke, and everything around it turned into wasteland.

Four people appeared on the scene, namely Gu Qing, Yang Jian, Yang Jiao, and Yang Chan.

"Many thanks, Daoist Gu."

Yang Jian apologized to Gu Qing sincerely.

Whether it was the Golden Crow matter or the current matter, even if Yang Jian wore the Heavenly Eye, he couldn't grasp it. On the contrary, Gu Qing carried all this.

"Just some scene-shifting methods."

Gu Qing waved his hand, not taking it to heart.

When cultivating the Dao Heart Planting Demon Method, Gu Qing could already use mental power to affect people's judgment, making people hallucinate. Now Gu Qing's magic power was a thousand or ten thousand times stronger than back then, so he applied the "Nine-Return Sun Scripture" to project the Nezha Palace here, and used his soul to affect Li Jing's judgment, making Li Jing think he had broken into the palace.

"It's good that Nezha is fine."

Gu Qing and Yang Chan walked side by side and took a step, arriving in front of the Nezha Palace. The common people here were praying, and after Gu Qing and Yang Chan entered, Nezha's soul also appeared.

"Li Jing is really good!"

Nezha said coldly.

"This father is also too cruel."

Xiaotian Dog arrived outside the Nezha Palace at this time. Relying on his superior hearing, he roughly figured out what was going on, and couldn't help but share the hatred with Nezha, saying: "There is no reason for a father to kill his son, and fortunately my father is already dead!"

Xiaotian Dog was straightforward.

But Yang Jian, who came in later, and Yang Chan beside Gu Qing, were all stabbed by a sword, and their faces were all embarrassed.

After returning from Taoshan, Yang Jian knew that his father Yang Yang Tianyou was roasted to death, and the whole person was naturally painful, helpless, and self-blaming.

"Master, what's wrong with you?"

Xiaotian Dog leaned to Yang Jian's side and asked earnestly.

"..."

Yang Jian was silent for a while and said sorrowfully: "My father is also dead!"

Yang Jian compared his father with Li Jing in his heart, and then felt that his own father was much stronger than Li Jing, but his own father was roasted to death.

"I didn't protect my father."

Yang Chan felt sad and cried. Gu Qing saw this, hurriedly reached out to circle her, let Yang Chan lean on his chest, and listened to Yang Chan say that when the ten suns crossed the sky, she tried her best to operate her magic power to protect, but Yang Yang Tianyou was burned and turned to ash in front of her.

"If the corpse turns to ash, it's not easy to handle."

Gu Qing patted Yang Chan's shoulder and said in a low voice.

"Mr. Gu, is there still a turning point?"

Yang Jian heard the meaning and asked immediately.

Yang Chan in Gu Qing's arms raised her head immediately, realizing that she had entered Gu Qing's embrace unknowingly, hurriedly took two steps back, her eyes hopeful, looking at Gu Qing, asking for the method.

"Didn't Brother Nezha also die."

Gu Qing said calmly: "But he has a corpse, and after receiving incense for three years, there is still a chance for rebirth."

Yang Chan nodded. She handled everything about Nezha, so she knew it best.

"Then my father has no corpse, what should I do?"

Yang Jian asked.

Yang Jiao also hurriedly pulled Gu Qing's sleeve.

"There is also a way!"

Gu Qing nodded and said: "This method requires your father's soul. As long as your father's soul is still there, take the soul to the Jin Guang Cave on Mount Qianyuan, let Master Master Taiyi make a lotus body for your father, and it can also be used."

The story of the Lotus Lamp prequel, due to Gu Qing's participation, Yang Jian had less siege from the Heavenly Court in the mortal world, the time to learn skills was advanced, and the time to return to Mount Hua was also advanced. Thus, the order of the ten Golden Crows and Li Jing destroying Nezha's body was reversed.

Now Gu Qing protected Nezha's physical body and also pointed out the lotus incarnation method to Yang Jian.

"Gu Qing, thank you!"

Yang Chan stared at Gu Qing, a shallow smile on her face.

Only after experiencing despair do you know how precious this hope is.

"I also thank you!"

Nezha said.

Gu Qing raised his head, looked at Nezha. After communicating with Master Master Taiyi in the Jin Guang Cave on Mount Qianyuan, Gu Qing knew that Nezha's achievement of the lotus body was most important for the people who injured his soul on the road to crusade against Zhou. Now Gu Qing saved Nezha, and the Chan Sect also had to find another method.

"Then let's act immediately!"

Yang Jiao and Yang Jian said: "We will go to the Underworld and take back Father's soul!"

Yang Chan had a shallow smile on her face and said: "I will wait for your good news on Mount Hua." Nezha still needed protection, so he couldn't leave anyone.

Yang Jiao and Yang Jian said goodbye to Yang Chan, then turned into a stream of light and headed toward the direction of the Ghost Gate Pass.

Gu Qing raised his head again and looked at the firmament. At this moment, Gu Qing's divine sense passed through layers of clouds and met the eyes of Fairy Chang'e in the Moon Palace.

"Why are you so sorrowful?"

Gu Qing's divine sense conveyed to the Moon Palace.

Chang'e in the Moon Palace heard this, her delicate body trembled slightly, and she said gently: "Just now, the Jade Emperor personally dissolved Yang Yang Tianyou's soul, I am sorrowful for Yaoji..."

"..."

Gu Qing withdrew his gaze silently, looked at the Three Holy Mother Yang Chan who was smiling in front of him, his breathing slightly stifled, not knowing how to speak.

Forget it... it's better not to do things like reporting bad news.

Let Yang Jian discover it himself.
