Chapter 282 The Dragon King Complains
Shiji told Guangchengzi the story of Nezha.
He also told him all his speculations about what Manjusri Taoist was planning.
Guangchengzi said he would investigate the reason why Manjusri Taoist stayed in Chentang Pass.
He also promised that if Manjusri Taoist was indeed involved in the matter, he would definitely clear Nezha's name.
At the same time, Guangchengzi strongly condemned the Dragon King of the East China Sea for not bringing rain to Chentang Pass, saying that this was inhumane and irresponsible.
He threatened to take sanctions against the Dragon King of the East China Sea and guaranteed that the problems of water supply and water shortage for the people of Chentangguan would be solved within three months.
"Three months! By the time he solves the problem, there will be no one alive in Chentang Pass. Guangchengzi is the leader of the Twelve Golden Immortals. If he really wants to solve Nezha's problem, it's just a matter of a word. If he keeps shirking responsibility, could it be that Wenshu Taoist is under his orders?"
Yang Jian questioned.
Shiji immediately retorted: "Daoist Guangchengzi is a humble person and would never do such a thing as going back on his word."
She just finished speaking.
Outside the cave, a thunderous sound suddenly rang out.
"Nezha, return my son's life to me!"
Thunder mixed with dragon roars.
Everyone in the cave looked changed.
"Guang Chengzi really has bad intentions. Uncle Master just told him where Nezha is, and now he has been found in his cave."
Yang Jian's expression changed.
When they came out of the cave, they suddenly saw a green dragon hovering in the sky.
"Nezha, you are here indeed."
Ao Guang roared.
In the distance, Li Jing and his troops also arrived near Skull Mountain.
He noticed that Ao Guang was also there, so he said, "Dragon King, can you please stop using your magical powers and give the people of Chentang Pass a chance to survive?"
Ao Guang was furious: "Li Jing, you gave birth to a good son. I admired you very much. You have ensured good weather and good harvests at Chentang Pass for decades. Who would have thought that today your good son would kill my son and even pull out his dragon tendons."
Li Jing burst into tears and explained: "Nezha is still young, how can he fight against the dragon son."
"Father, there is no need to bother with this old dragon."
Nezha couldn't bear to see his father being so humble, so he took out the dragon tendon and said, "This is the dragon tendon I prepared for my father. With this dragon tendon, my father will be much safer when he goes to war. As for this old Dragon King~"
Nezha rode the Wind Fire Wheel into the air, with the Chaos Heaven Ribbon wrapped around him. He summoned the Fire Spear and pointed it at Ao Guang: "Everyone is responsible for their own actions. I was the one who killed your son. If you want to cause trouble, come to me. I am also very interested in your dragon tendons."
Ao Guang was furious and sent thunder to attack Nezha, but was blocked by the formation on Skull Mountain.
"Who is the demon down there that dares to protect Nezha?"
"Demon? I am Shiji, the second-generation disciple of Jiejiao. It doesn't matter if the old Dragon King misunderstands me. I won't bother with the Dragon King. But if the masters of my two nephews know about it, the old Dragon King will be in trouble."
Shiji spoke slowly.
Ao Guang's pupils shrank.
"Jie Jiao!"
He received a message from Manjusri Taoist, saying that he knew where Nezha was hiding, so he hurried over.
However, Manjusri Taoist did not tell him about the cave occupied by the disciples of Jiejiao.
It is only said that this place is occupied by demons from the fairyland.
Nezha's involvement with the orthodox sect already made him terrified, and now the entry of the evil sect was obviously not a good thing.
Shiji looked at Huo Ling and introduced them: "My two nephews, this one is Brother Duobao's disciple Huo Ling, and this one~"
She pointed at Yang Jian: "His name is Yang Jian, and he is Senior Sister Jin Ling's disciple. He also has another identity. He is the newly appointed True Lord of Miao Dao in the Heavenly Court, and is highly appreciated by the Emperor of Heaven."
"So, you guys want to go against my dragon clan?"
Ao Guang's expression changed. "Old Dragon King, please understand clearly that it is not us who want to go against the dragon clan, but there is something fishy going on in this matter, and it was the Taoist Manjusri who interfered and caused the tragedy."
Yang Jian clasped his fists.
"Don't talk nonsense. It is a fact that Nezha killed my beloved son. My beloved son is the God of Rain appointed by the Heavenly Court. Since Nezha is unwilling to stand up and bear the consequences, I will appeal to the Emperor of Heaven and let him seek justice for my beloved son."
Ao Guang's eyes suddenly became fierce, and he leaped away, obviously unwilling to say anything more.
After Ao Guang left.
Yang Jian felt that the matter was becoming more and more complicated. If the Heavenly Court knew about it, Nezha would definitely not be in the right.
There is no conclusive evidence for Manjusri Taoist's plan, and the fire will not burn Manjusri.
The righteous gods appointed by the Heavenly Court died at the hands of Nezha. If the Heavenly Court sat back and watched, its majesty would be gone.
But if Nezha was dealt with, it would anger Taiyi Zhenren, and the Chan sect behind Taiyi Zhenren would have a rift with the Heavenly Court.
The idea of Heaven to unite the three religions would be shattered.
Thinking of this, Yang Jian felt a huge headache.
He originally thought that the matter of Nezha was just a trivial matter.
Only now do I realize that this matter has such wide-ranging implications and may even have a huge impact on future catastrophes.
Think of this.
Yang Jian told Nezha his thoughts: "The old Dragon King is going to the Heaven to file a complaint. This matter can no longer be covered up. You should quickly pass on this matter to Taiyi Zhenren. You must not let the Dragon King go to the Heaven, otherwise there will be endless troubles."
Nezha nodded.
Afterwards, at Li Jing's call, Nezha left Shiji Cave and headed for Chentang Pass.
The Fire Spirit stayed in Skull Mountain and sent a message to Taoist Duobao to see how Jiejiao would respond to the matter.
Yang Jian frowned and thought, "If I can kill the old Dragon King directly, maybe I can solve the dilemma."
Due to the continuous drought, Chentang Pass has become a doomsday scene.
Dust rises at the bottom of the river and cracks appear in the fields.
The trees are scorched, the wells are filled with mud. The sun is blazing, and the dust is rolling.
Countless refugees lay in the shade on the roadside waiting to die.
This tragic scene made Nezha feel like he was struck by lightning.
He didn't expect that his actions would bring such suffering to the people of Chentangguan.
Nezha was scolded by Li Jing: "You are just a trouble maker. Your mother suffered for three years and six months to give birth to you. I didn't expect that you would become the root of the destruction of my Li family! If I had known this would happen, I should have~"
Seeing his father sad, Nezha felt uneasy and knelt on the ground: "Daddy, don't be sad. I have asked Master Taiyi for help. He will definitely find a solution."
"Are you going to cause trouble for your master again? Master Taiyi, are you bigger than the Heaven?"
Li Jing rebuked again.
Nezha suddenly stopped talking. Thinking of Yang Jian's fear of the Dragon King going to heaven, he immediately took off into the air and flew away.
"In that case, Nezha will go and kill the old Dragon King."
Ao Guang was chased by Nezha on his way to heaven.
He originally thought that Nezha was here to die.
After the fight, he suddenly discovered that Nezha's magical powers were extremely powerful, and the magic weapon in his hand was also extraordinary. It would take more than a short time for him to defeat Nezha.
He knew that it would be of no benefit for him to delay any further, as Taiyi Zhenren might have already known about this and was on his way.
Seeing this, Ao Guang could only flee in a panic and fly towards the heaven.
Nezha was chasing closely behind him.
