Chapter 65: Laojun: They beat you? Why do they look even more miserable?

"Laojun is here." They were all too familiar with the voice of Taishang Laojun.

Nezha and the other two looked toward the outside of the cave simultaneously. Sun Wukong and Yang Jian exchanged a glance and went out first.

Jinjiao and Yinjiao were extremely flustered and hurriedly had the minor demons invite their mother back to the rear cave.

"My Lord, will Laojun agree to let the two of us off the hook?" Jinjiao and Yinjiao addressed Tang An with the respectful title of "My Lord."

Although Tang An held no official rank, and although Tang An had called upon her disciples to beat them up and had even snatched away all their treasures.

But as long as Tang An was willing to help with this favor, they would be perfectly willing to be beaten up again and go find more treasures to give her.

Tang An fished a golden horn and a silver horn from her sleeves, holding them in her hand, the expression in her eyes unclear.

She, Tang An, was worldly in her life, greedy for money and lust, cowardly, loved to rely on the power of others, and most of what she did were immoral deeds.

But people, after all, always have times when they don't live so clearly, and times when they want to do their best to complete a single thing.

Even if that thing seems thankless, brings her no benefit, and even seems a bit childish and stupid.

But so what? If she wants to do it, she does it.

Since she wants to do it, then other excuses, other people's rhetoric, and opinions are all just bullshit.

"Whether he's willing or not, we'll only know after trying." She seemed to have made up her mind and put the two horns back into her Universe Bag.

She had accepted the items, and she was definitely going to help with the favor!

"Come!"

Jinjiao and Yinjiao asked in confusion: "Do what?"

"Hit me!"

"Ah?"

Jinjiao and Yinjiao were so stunned by what Tang An said that they didn't know how to react.

And even if they wanted to make a move, didn't she need to look back and see that the god of slaughter beside her was threatening them with a naked gaze?

"Forget it, I'll do it myself." Tang An raised her fist, swung her arm, and punched herself right in the nose.

"Roar, roar, roar~"

Tang An's nose didn't hurt, but it was very sour; physiological tears flowed out "splashingly," and a nosebleed followed suit.

Attacking one's own shield with one's own spear—there really is a bug. It seems the only flaw in her Diamond Indestructible Body is herself?

Nezha frowned at this, "What are you doing?"

"Acting."

"Why hit yourself to act?" Nezha understood Tang An's personality; he knew Tang An was afraid of pain and cowardly, so how could she really bring herself to hit herself?

But this time, he miscalculated; Tang An had really given herself a solid punch.

"Of course, it's to make the acting realistic."

"Then couldn't you have asked Brother Monkey to help you transform?"

"You! I!" Tang An was about to explode. Just now, she had been busy brainwashing herself and was so hot-blooded that she forgot about faking it!

Even if she didn't ask Wukong to transform her, she could have redeemed some eyeshadow or something from the system to put on!

If all else failed, she could have taken some supplements to make herself bleed from the nose!

Careless, truly careless. As expected, one really shouldn't make any decisions when emotionally agitated or when one's head is hot.

"Forget it, I've already hit myself. A deity of Taishang Laojun's level won't be easily fooled even if it's real."

Tang An reached out and smeared the nosebleed on her face, pouted, and tears gathered again.

She brewed her emotions for a moment, lifted her skirt, and ran out.

"Laojun, oh Laojun~"

As soon as Tang An came out and saw Yang Jian and Sun Wukong chatting with Taishang Laojun, she immediately lay down on the ground.

"Your boy attendants almost killed me, this Destined One; you must give me an explanation~"

"Otherwise, otherwise I won't get up~"

The moment Taishang Laojun saw Tang An, a fleeting ripple flashed in the depths of his eyes.

"You, this Destined One, as their master, how have you learned the skill of rolling and making a scene on the ground that the Great Sage used to have?"

Taishang Laojun stroked his beard, not angry, his eyes also smiling.

Tang An reached out and wiped a handful of nosebleed to show Taishang Laojun, "Laojun, I've been wronged, look, it's all blood!"

"You don't even know, they beat me, they..."

Tang An couldn't continue acting, because summoned by Laojun, Jinjiao and Yinjiao had already come out of the Lianhua Cave.

Laojun was clearly startled when he saw the state of Jinjiao and Yinjiao.

"Are you saying they beat you? And then lost their own golden and silver horns?"

"They beat you so hard they ended up bruised and swollen, and even lost all their magic treasures?"

Tang An sniffed her nosebleed, "Yeah." Even she felt a bit guilty.

"Anyway, that's the situation, maybe the process..."

"Right, the process isn't important, the result is what matters, and the result is that they beat me until I bled this much."

"Laojun, you must uphold justice for me~" Tang An sat on the ground, crying loudly, looking exactly like a real victim.

But who among those present didn't know the truth? If she was bitter, then there was no one sweet in the Three Realms.

"Very well, very well. In view of the fact that you have truly shed blood, how do you want me to punish the two of them?"

Once this was mentioned, Tang An immediately stopped pretending.

"Punish them both to continue being demons, and they aren't allowed to return to the Heavenly Court for a hundred years."

"Oh?" Laojun smiled lightly: "You mean, let them linger in the human world for a hundred years, and then return to continue being my alchemy room attendants?"

"Yes, punish them to burn the furnace, to be cattle and horses for the Heavenly Court for a lifetime! Yes!"

"It's an alchemy furnace." Laojun corrected her.

"Oh right, alchemy furnace, alchemy furnace." Tang An smiled embarrassedly; she had said "burn the furnace" out of habit and couldn't help but let it slip.

Taishang Laojun shook his head helplessly and looked at Jinjiao and Yinjiao. "In that case, do you two accept the punishment?"

Jinjiao and Yinjiao were overjoyed, but dared not show it.

"We await Laojun's disposal."

"Very well, then let you be demons in the lower realm for a hundred years. However, you must not do evil; otherwise, you will surely taste the bitter fruit. Do you understand?"

"We understand~ Thank you, Laojun, for your grace." Jinjiao and Yinjiao kowtowed to thank him.

After dealing with Jinjiao and Yinjiao, Taishang Laojun looked at Tang An again.

Tang An sniffed her nosebleed, "Was it that smooth?"

She had prepared so many lines and scripts, and Wukong and the others hadn't even started to stand out to perform the classic backing-her-up segment, and the problem was solved just like that?

She didn't expect Laojun to be so easy to talk to.

"Destined One, since the matter of the two of them is settled, what about the matter of those treasures..."

"Hey!" Tang An immediately scrambled up from the ground, hid behind Nezha very cowardly, and kept muttering: "Can't see me, can't see me, can't see me."

Nezha looked at his sleeve that Tang An was clutching, the corners of his mouth lifted slightly and then quickly pressed down.

"Didn't you say that no one could bully your disciples, not even if Taishang Laojun came?"

Tang An opened one eye, glanced at Laojun, and became even more cowardly. "Yeah, but he didn't bully my disciples, he's bullying me!"

"When did Laojun bully you?"

"He wants my treasures; that's even worse than bullying me."

Nezha's mouth twitched slightly, "Twisted logic." But after saying that, he silently hid Tang An behind him and looked up at Taishang Laojun.

The intent to protect his own was evident. ===== CHAPTER 66 =====
