Chapter 306: Recruiting Nezha
Seeing this, I laughed unrestrainedly a few times; “Hahaha, hahahaha…”
Then I reached out to help Nezha; “There’s no need for such formality, good brother. Get up quickly. We’re all family, so let’s not be strangers. Come on, the ground is cold. Don’t let my brother catch a chill.”
If I hadn’t said this, it would have been better. As soon as I said it, Nezha finally reacted. He was still naked…
Mo Liqing hurriedly flew back to Li Jing’s side and, sweating profusely, said to Li Jing; “It’s bad! It’s bad, Heavenly King Li! Your third prince has defected on the battlefield!”
“Ah? What!”
Hearing this, Li Jing’s eyes widened, his face instantly turned red, and he couldn’t help but spit out a mouthful of blood.
Fortunately, there was a very observant heavenly soldier beside him who quickly supported him.
Li Jing’s mind raced, and after a long pause, he shook his head and said; “This is sin! It’s truly sin! If Nezha was born, why was that evil path born! Heavens! What sin have I committed!”
After Nezha was helped up by his elder brother, he patted the dirt off his buttocks, then put on his clothes, and with the other three Heavenly Kings watching with palpitations, he retrieved his magic tool.
He cupped his hands towards me again; “Big brother, I, Nezha, have always been upright. My words are as good as my bond. Since my brother is now following you, I, your little brother, will pave the way for you first, to show my sincerity to my big brother.”
After saying this, Nezha directly charged towards the ghost immortals who had mocked him earlier.
“Ah ya ya! A few mere ghost path cultivators, how dare you mock me, no, how dare you oppose my big brother! Take my spear!”
I was just about to try and stop him.
Jin Buque reached out and patted my back, whispering; “Big brother, that’s enough. With your move, you not only took Nezha, but Nezha’s father is probably already half-dead from anger without shedding blood. That’s enough. If you win over some more strong individuals from the Earth Realm, then the big shots in the Three Realms will surely want to kill you. You should be more careful, big brother…”
I watched Nezha beating those ghost immortals, and a smile involuntarily appeared on my lips; “Okay, on the path of cultivating immortality, one really can’t be too much of an evil spirit. Sometimes, if you go too far, you will naturally be targeted. But it’s not that I’m afraid, it’s just that I feel it would be too lonely if that were the case. After all, being too invincible truly makes one feel lonely, heeheeheehee.”
Hearing my words, Jin Buque did not retort, but instead revealed a meaningful, wicked smile.
After Nezha’s defection occurred, the leading ghost immortal in the Earth Realm saw Nezha attacking his men again, raised an eyebrow, and angrily shouted at Li Jing; “What do you mean by this, Li? Did you bring your men here not to help the Sato Clan, but to be enemies with the Earth Realm on that brat’s side?”
Being asked this, Li Jing couldn’t help but tremble all over. How could he say something like that! I was clearly here under the Jade Emperor’s decree to assist the Sato Clan. If I were branded with this name, how could I report back to the Jade Emperor? What the hell? Wouldn’t this make me a rebel?
Thinking of this, Li Jing quickly spoke to explain; “A misunderstanding, a misunderstanding, fellow Daoist. My son’s mind is still immature. I don’t know what method that evil path used to bewitch him, causing him to commit such rebellious acts. I hope you won’t blame him. When I return, I will definitely have my son personally apologize to Empress Houtu of the Earth Realm.”
After listening to Li Jing’s words, the leading ghost immortal half-believed him. He frowned, and although he looked unhappy, he couldn’t say much more at the moment, so he could only wait until today’s matter was settled before pursuing it further.
However, the development of events often exceeded all individual perspectives of self-righteousness.
Just as the two had finished speaking, the other three Heavenly Kings among the Four Heavenly Kings also joined the battle. The reason was not anything else. After Nezha killed two ghost immortals, the strong individuals from the Earth Realm immediately said;
“Damn it, you Heavenly Realm people are all dishonorable scoundrels! You actually betrayed your allies on the battlefield and killed them. We swear we will never die with you Heavenly Realm scoundrels!”
“That’s right! To put it crudely! The people of the Heavenly Realm are all such opportunists, betraying so easily. Truly shameless.”
As the old saying goes, the abuser meant no harm, but the listener took it to heart.
This insult was not just directed at Nezha, but at all the strong individuals of the Heavenly Realm. What is this called in the Mortal World? It seems to be called regional discrimination. Many regional discriminations start from such an unintentional remark, which then triggers resonance among people of the same region, escalating from individual disputes to collective actions.
As long as one’s Dao Heart is unstable, they will join in, generalize, retaliate with insults, or even start fighting. A small matter can be amplified.
With the addition of the three Heavenly Kings, then let’s go! The other strong individuals of the Heavenly Realm didn’t care about anything else. Seeing that the leaders were already fighting, why should they stand idle? So let’s fight! We’ll talk about it afterward. Anyway, with leaders, following them is definitely the right choice.
The people of the Earth Realm saw the strong individuals of the Heavenly Realm swarming to attack their people, so naturally, they wouldn’t stand by. They all came together, so who they fought didn’t matter! Besides, they weren’t the ones who made the first move.
It’s done. Cough cough cough. A small wrestling match directly triggered a chaotic battle among many strong individuals from the Heavenly Realm and the Earth Realm!
I helplessly patted my forehead and teased myself in my heart;
Alas… it’s all because I’m too excellent that I don’t know what to say. How does that saying go? Yes, yes, yes, it’s called “He who attains the Dao has much help, while he who loses the Dao has little.” To put it crudely, with my profound cultivation level, look, even my enemies automatically become my helpers, and they start fighting among themselves. Cough cough cough.
While they were fighting amongst themselves, Big Brother had Jin Buque and the others get onto the Tai Chi Beasts, ready to escape at any moment. As for himself, he continuously weaved through the two groups of people from the Heavenly Realm and the Earth Realm, shouting;
“Damn it! What kind of scoundrels are you Heavenly Realm people! I’ll kill you!”
“Go to hell, the people of the Earth Realm are turtles, what are they showing off about without physical bodies?”
“Your Heavenly Realm is good, you big idiots, self-righteous and shameless things!”
“Get lost! Go to hell! Why don’t you say you made the first move? You scoundrel for falsely accusing me! You don’t have your mother’s big, fat, ugly face!”
“Scram! Go to hell! Why aren’t you saying you were the ones who attacked first? You scoundrel for hitting back with a false accusation! You don’t have your mother’s big, butt-like face!”
Now, this is good. With this spark I lit, these already chaotic fighters became even more enraged. They were fighting fiercely, rolling up their sleeves as if they had some great feud, with countless casualties.
