Chapter 450: Tongtian Jiaozhu says nothing, just blindly following along with a guilty conscience
Above Doushuai Palace, the wind and clouds shifted unpredictably.
On one side was the thunderous might of the Heavenly Dao, and on the other was the supreme sword Qi of Tongtian Jiaozhu.
The two sides stood in a standoff, and for a time, it was hard to determine a winner.
Tang An knew that Tongtian Jiaozhu would not severely injure the Heavenly Dao, and the Heavenly Dao did not have the ability to severely injure Tongtian Jiaozhu either.
In any case, it was just a matter of stalling; once the Great Killing Weapon was finished, they would be considered the winners.
However!
Could she, Tang An, be an obedient person?
Who was she waiting for here? It was the Heavenly Dao!
If the Great Killing Weapon were tempered by heavenly thunder and absorbed the power of the Heavenly Dao Golden Thunder, its speed would undergo a qualitative leap.
"Hey, old man."
While the Heavenly Dao and Tongtian Jiaozhu were in a standoff, Tang An had already installed an Ultimate Evolutionary Lightning Rod in the hall where Taishang Laojun was refining the weapon.
She raised her middle finger and beckoned with her finger to taunt the Heavenly Dao.
"Don't say I look down on you; I just do look down on you."
"Yelling every day about striking this and striking that, if you have the ability, come and strike me?"
"With that little bit of Golden Lightning of yours, would this lady be afraid? Huh?"
The Taunt, although low-level, was effective.
With that arrogant look of hers, who wouldn't want to give her a good beating?
In Hongjun's eyes, the anger of Golden Lightning flickered; as his dharma body raised his hand, hundreds of hundred-foot Golden Dragons formed from the power of Golden Lightning flew out from the clouds in front of Tang An.
"Hehe..."
The scene was spectacular, and the special effects were exaggerated.
But... did she seem to have accidentally played it too big?
"Grand Master Uncle, catch the lightning!"
Tang An shouted toward the refining hall, and then her figure instantly appeared in front of Tongtian Jiaozhu.
As the saying goes, a teacher for a day is a father for life.
The saying also goes, a child who doesn't scam their father is not a good child.
If Master counts as a father, then the Master Uncle is a big father.
As for her, she was still just a weak and innocent child; such big lightning should be carried by the elders.
Furthermore, those Golden Dragons should have changed direction along with Tang An.
But as they approached the lightning rod, they suddenly lost control, all turning into the power of lightning and striking the lightning rod.
"Crack!"
"Crack! Crack!"
Bolts of Golden Lightning struck the refining hall; the red clouds that had originally gathered above Doushuai Palace had already begun to turn golden-red, and the Heavenly Dao thunder essence could be faintly seen surging within them.
"It's done!"
"It's done!!"
Tang An was both surprised and excited, and immediately cupped her hands to Hongjun, "Thank you, Master Ancestor, Master Ancestor is generous."
"I knew that Master Ancestor has always been tough-mouthed but soft-hearted; for the peace of the Three Realms, you must be on my side."
"Master Ancestor, today you facilitated the birth of the killing weapon; in the future, it will absolutely be of no harm and only... uh... of great benefit to you. Yes."
Hongjun stared at Tang An; she really could change her face as soon as she spoke.
Right now, he had been tricked by her and she had even put him on such a high pedestal with just a few words. It really made it hard for him to lose face and say anything too harsh for a moment.
"Do you know that insisting on going against the heavens and recklessly creating killing karma will lead to being entangled by karmic obstacles, and you will surely suffer a backlash in the future."
Tang An gave a "hehe" laugh. "Master Ancestor is really getting old, forgetting things as soon as you turn your head."
"That Great Killing Weapon was facilitated by your final push; if I am truly entangled by killing karma and suffer a backlash in the future, you would be the first one who couldn't escape, right?"
"You!" Hongjun was so angry he really wanted to slap Tang An to death to get some peace.
"I'm very well, thank you for your concern, Master Ancestor, I won't see you out." Tang An had just finished using the Heavenly Dao and immediately sent the guest away.
Hongjun suffered a muffled loss, snorted coldly, and his dharma body dissipated into the clouds.
Watching the Heavenly Dao get frustrated, Tang An clicked her tongue smugly and showed off her battle results to Tongtian Jiaozhu.
"Master, why don't we have hot pot later to celebrate?"
"Tang! An!" This voice, one could tell it was Taishang Laojun shouting, the tone was so gnashing of teeth.
Tang An's smile froze on her face, not daring to turn back to look.
"Master, I suddenly remembered I didn't turn off the air conditioner at home, goodbye."
Taishang Laojun walked out of the refining hall, his beard half-burned, his white hair and face scorched yellow by the lightning, and the Whisk in his hand had become a stiff, straight stick.
"Where are you running, you little brat!"
It was truly enough to make Taishang Laojun's blood pressure soar; he chased after Tang An, beating her with the Whisk.
"Master Uncle, Master Uncle, please calm down. It was Master Ancestor who struck, if you want to find someone, you should find him, right?"
"Hmph!" Taishang Laojun was so angry his hands shook, pointing at Tang An with the Whisk and asking, "Didn't you promise to only draw a little Golden Lightning to temper the weapon?"
Tang An gave a guilty "hehe" laugh, "I didn't expect that as soon as I turned on the Taunt skill, the other side would directly use their ultimate move."
Then Tang An put her hands on her hips and shifted the blame to the Heavenly Dao, "You are also an elder, how old are you this year? Why are you bickering with a child like me?"
"I'm still a child, you directly turned a little bit of damage into a billion points of damage, won't your conscience hurt? Is having a lot of mana that amazing?"
"Crack!"
Clearly, the Heavenly Dao was warning Tang An.
Tang An covered her mouth; alright, if she kept up the Taunt, she would soon have two old men chasing her to beat her up.
"Hey, I'm so young, what virtue or ability do I have? Am I really that asking for a beating?" Tang An asked Tongtian Jiaozhu.
Tongtian Jiaozhu did not speak, only looking elsewhere.
He felt guilty too, afraid that after Taishang Laojun finished settling scores with the junior, he would turn to settle them with him.
This disciple was good in every way, except that sometimes she easily made people's hands itch. Fortunately, fortunately, the little padded jacket was still considerate under normal circumstances.
"Senior Uncle, please calm your anger, calm your anger."
Tang An transformed into a comb and came out to groom Taishang Laojun's beard.
"How about this, I'll give you a discount on those Pills I wanted, how about that? I won't ask for so many."
"Hmm?" Taishang Laojun did not believe it; could Tang An really be that kind-hearted?
"I'll give you a discount, round it down, let's just go with 88,880,000."
"Hmm? You rounded it down?"
"I did, the zero is just air, I rounded off the air."
Taishang Laojun did not speak, but he was visibly turning red with rage.
"Hey! Hey! I was just trying to make you laugh, hey..."
Tang An clutched her backside and ran; if she were any slower, that Whisk-version of the seven-wolf-belt would have lashed onto her.
At the same time, in the Mortal World, at Huashan.
Sun Wukong and Yang Jian stood atop Huashan, and Yaoji Zhanggongzhu arrived shortly after.
What they faced was not a sky full of Heavenly Soldiers and Generals, but only one person.
The Jade Emperor.
"Brother, you come today, surely not to reunite and reminisce with your siblings?"
The last time the two siblings met was during the Taoshan tribulation, separated by the mountain.
"Times have changed; is it not enough that you killed me once, Brother? Do you still wish for my daughter to be pressed under this Huashan just as I was back then?"
The Jade Emperor looked at Yaoji and Yang Jian; in his eyes, besides a look of struggle, there was a coldness influenced by the currents of Destiny.
"Destiny cannot be defied; the New Heavenly Law is born, it can no longer be delayed."
Sun Wukong scratched his cheek and scolded angrily, "Old man Jade Emperor, you came today without troops; are you planning to strike secretly behind your master's back?"
