He spoke with an air of knowing everything, saying, "So, what trouble have you gotten into this time?"
"apprentice……"
Nezha hesitated for a moment, then said with a fawning smile, "Disciple hasn't caused any trouble. Disciple is here to protect you!"
As he spoke, he kept massaging Taiyi Zhenren's back and shoulders, appearing extremely filial.
"Guardian?"
"Hmph, you've gotten yourself into some trouble outside, haven't you!"
Master Taiyi sighed deeply, his face filled with helplessness.
Ever since he took in Nezha, who was always causing trouble, he has had to clean up Nezha's messes countless times.
He's used to it!
Nezha rolled his eyes and, while making tea for Taiyi Zhenren, said, "I didn't cause any trouble. I just accidentally killed the third prince of the East Sea Dragon King."
"Oh my god!"
Taiyi Zhenren was so startled that his whisk flew out of his hand.
"master!"
Nezha quickly picked up his master's whisk and handed it to him.
"The master is getting old and couldn't hold it steady for a moment!"
Taiyi Zhenren took the whisk, settled himself down, and said lightly, "It's nothing, it's not a big problem!"
really!
The dragons in the world of Lotus Lantern are similar to those in the world of Journey to the West; they appear incredibly glamorous, but their status is extremely low.
The powerful figures in the Three Realms don't take the Dragon Clan seriously at all.
Even the Jade Emperor and Queen Mother's daily diet includes dragon liver and phoenix marrow.
Taiyi Zhenren's master was Yuanshi Tianzun, the leader of the Chan Sect, whose status was even more extraordinary, and even the Jade Emperor and the Queen Mother had to show him respect.
As Taiyi Zhenren's beloved disciple, Nezha only killed the third prince of the East Sea Dragon King, which was nothing to worry about.
"What trouble is that? Ao Guang was not convinced, so I beat him up. I even made a scene in his East Sea Dragon Palace and robbed the gold and silver treasures from his treasury, which I then distributed to the poor people!"
Nezha said nonchalantly.
Taiyi Zhenren was taken aback, and said somewhat stiffly, "Of course, this is not a big problem. It's fine if the East Sea Dragon Palace makes a fuss, it's nothing!"
"When I caused havoc in the East Sea Dragon Palace, I was transformed into a monster, and Ao Guang didn't know it was me!"
Nezha continued.
"Huh, you've even transformed into a monster? Nobody recognized you? When did my disciple become so clever?"
Master Taiyi was greatly surprised, his face filled with disbelief.
"Your apprentice is naturally this smart!"
Nezha pursed his lips and continued, "However, I accidentally let it slip and Ao Guang found out."
Taiyi Zhenren was petrified on the spot!
After a long pause, he said, with a wry smile, "And then?"
Nezha handed the brewed tea to Taiyi Zhenren and said, "Then Ao Guang wanted to go to the Heavenly Court to sue me. I took advantage of the Jade Emperor's absence, transformed into the Jade Emperor's appearance, and tried to fool Ao Guang away..."
"What?"
"You...you've transformed into the Jade Emperor's likeness?!"
As soon as Taiyi Zhenren took the tea and was about to drink it, he was so startled that he dropped the teacup on the ground.
"Master, what's wrong with you?"
"I've only transformed into the Jade Emperor's appearance, is it really necessary to scare you like this?"
Nezha was completely unconcerned.
"I'm afraid?"
"When have I, Taiyi Zhenren, ever been afraid?"
Taiyi Zhenren puffed out his chest, looking incredibly heroic.
Then, he asked tentatively, "Besides these, you haven't caused any other trouble, have you?"
Nezha brewed his master another cup of tea and said, "No, it's nothing. I was just feeling bored in Heaven and saw that the Jade Emperor was being a bit unreasonable, so I turned into a giant bumblebee and stung him all over!"
Taiyi Zhenren took the teacup, and after taking a sip, he was so startled that his hand trembled, and he swallowed a mouthful of scalding hot tea, which made him gasp for breath.
After regaining his composure, he said, "You weren't discovered, were you?"
"No, that's not true. It's just that Ao Guang broke his promise. He promised not to report me to the Jade Emperor, but after I left the Heavenly Court, he went to the Jade Emperor and said that I was impersonating him. The Jade Emperor was very angry and sent 50,000 troops to arrest me!"
Nezha said somewhat indignantly.
"My God!"
Taiyi Zhenren was so frightened that he fainted.
"Master, Master..."
Nezha was shocked and immediately shook his master vigorously, trying to wake him up.
At that moment, a loud noise came from outside the cave.
Nezha looked up in confusion.
A moment later, he saw four people walk in, and his eyes immediately lit up. "Brother Li, Sister Xiaobai..."
Chapter 669 Great Mercy and Small Mercy
"That little Nezha is really a handful!"
Li Yao arrived at the Golden Light Cave of Qianyuan Mountain early and overheard the conversation between Nezha and Taiyi Zhenren.
In fact, he had anticipated this long ago. Even if he had Nezha deliberately disguise himself as a monster and cause havoc in the East Sea Dragon Palace.
Nezha, being a loose tongue, would sometimes blurt things out.
Unexpectedly, in just over a month, Nezha leaked the matter and even had the Dragon King of the East Sea, Ao Guang, report it to the Jade Emperor in Heaven.
Of course, Li Yao did not mean to blame Nezha.
The reason he deliberately disguised himself as a monster and caused havoc in the East Sea Dragon Palace was because his strength at the time was indeed insufficient to survive in this world.
Things are different now.
He used the space in his ring to adjust the flow of time in the space, stayed in the space for thirty years, and his strength improved a lot.
Furthermore, Xiaobai and Xiaohui's strength has also been greatly improved.
In addition, he has a genius-level helper: Linglong!
Therefore, although he was still unclear about the true strength of a powerful figure like Yuanshi Tianzun.
However, he should also be able to fight against Yuanshi Tianzun.
Of course, a powerful figure like Yuanshi Tianzun wouldn't easily take action against Li Yao before figuring out his origins.
Therefore, Li Yao wanted to get his hands on everything that people in the world wanted to seize as soon as possible.
What if, in the end, I really can't defeat a big shot like Yuanshi Tianzun?
He can also use the system to leave this world at any time.
Of course, this is only the worst-case scenario.
Li Yao felt that this situation was unlikely to occur.
According to Nezha, the trouble he later caused in Heaven was basically the same as in the original story.
He impersonated the Jade Emperor, even transforming into a bumblebee, and stung the Jade Emperor all over his body.
This Nezha is really mischievous!
Of course, because Li Yao had saved Yang Jian and his sister early on, the Heavenly Court had never been able to find their whereabouts.
Therefore, the original storyline of Yang Chan being captured by the Golden Crow and taken to the Heavenly Court was no longer included.
This would eliminate the scene where Nezha storms the execution ground in Heaven and rescues Yang Chan.
"Brother Nezha, it's been a long time! You're still as 'lively and adorable' as ever!"
Li Yao entered the Golden Light Cave on Qianyuan Mountain and teased Nezha.
He changed Nezha's "mischievous" to "lively and cute," which sounded quite appealing, but a smart person would realize that Li Yao was teasing Nezha.
"Brother Li, Sister Xiaobai, it's been so long! Nezha missed you both so much!"
"When we broke up that day, you said you would come to see me often, but I didn't expect you to come to see me only today!"
"Wait a minute, how did you know I was with my master?"
"And how did you find this place?"
Although Nezha is mischievous, he is not stupid; on the contrary, he is very clever.
He immediately noticed that Li Yao and the others' sudden appearance here was not right.
"We came here specifically to pay our respects after learning that Taiyi Zhenren, a disciple of Yuanshi Tianzun of the Chan Sect's Jade Void Palace, was here. We never expected to run into you!"
Li Yao made up a story on the spot.
"Oh, so Brother Li didn't come here specifically to see me!"
Nezha suddenly realized, and was slightly disappointed.
"A guest has arrived?"
Upon hearing the commotion, Taiyi Zhenren immediately awoke from his 'unconscious' state and sat up from the futon.
He quickly straightened his appearance, transforming himself into a calm and composed person who had received guidance from a master.
