Chapter 126 When soldiers come, generals will block them; when water comes, earth will dam it.
Lin Xuan couldn't help but chuckle upon hearing Nezha's words, and laughed:
"Why do you think this is just a legend? Haven't you ever seen an immortal before? You..."
Lin Xuan was about to continue speaking when he suddenly remembered something, stopped laughing, and looked somewhat embarrassed.
Given Nezha's level, he is already extremely rare among mortals. If he were in another timeline, he would have definitely seen immortals long ago.
At least they could learn about the existence of the Heavenly Court from other rogue cultivators and demons.
However, the era in which Nezha lived was extraordinary, and a great calamity had already begun.
Those powerful figures with influential backgrounds had long ago restricted their disciples from going out unnecessarily.
The same applies to the Heavenly Court. The Jade Emperor knew everything long ago and deliberately restrained the immortals of the Heavenly Court.
In recent decades, the gods have rarely descended to the mortal realm, so it is not surprising that Nezha knew nothing about the Heavenly Court and even regarded it as a legend.
Lin Xuan suddenly fell silent, which was quite abrupt, but Nezha didn't seem to mind. Instead, he said seriously:
"So that's how it is! There really are immortals in the world!"
After expressing his feelings, Nezha asked again, "But why are the heavenly soldiers and generals of Heaven helping the Dragon King of the East Sea?"
Lin Xuan had no choice but to explain.
After hearing this, Nezha looked disdainful, curled his lip, and frowned:
"I never expected that those stinky dragons would not only be incompetent, but also spineless."
"Brother Lin, what should we do? Are the Heavenly Soldiers from Heaven really that powerful?"
Lin Xuan nodded and said:
"They are indeed quite strong, and there are many of them."
"You may not know this, but the Heavenly Court has 100,000 heavenly soldiers and many powerful heavenly generals."
"He's like...like Marshal Tianpeng, a rare and powerful figure."
Lin Xuan wanted to give a few examples, but then he suddenly realized that the person in charge of commanding the heavenly generals seemed to be Li Jing.
But before Li Jing went to the Heavenly Court, Lin Xuan had no idea who was in charge of the Heavenly Soldiers.
This wasn't because Lin Xuan was ignorant; it was simply not mentioned in the game's storyline.
Before the Flower Fruit Mountain storyline begins, the Heavenly Soldiers are merely background characters and rarely appear in other storylines.
Nezha nodded slowly: "Marshal Tianpeng? I'll remember this man. If I meet him again, I'll have to give him a good sparring match."
"By the way, Brother Lin, from what you're saying, this enemy seems pretty formidable. What should we do?"
As he spoke, a look of worry appeared on Nezha's face.
Lin Xuan smiled slightly and patted Nezha on the shoulder, saying:
"Don't worry, I expected this day would come if I dared to kill Ao Bing."
"Come with me."
With that, Lin Xuan turned and left. Nezha immediately followed curiously, wondering what Lin Xuan was going to keep secret.
Lin Xuan led Nezha through the city, and the people along the way all gave way when they saw them coming, not daring to have any interaction with them.
Before the great battle, Nezha's reputation in Chentang Pass was not good, and now it has fallen to rock bottom.
Many people believe that if Nezha hadn't insisted on causing trouble, he wouldn't have provoked the East Sea Dragon Clan, and none of the subsequent events would have occurred.
They didn't know Ao Bing's identity, but they could tell that he was a very powerful dragon with a tremendous background.
If Ao Bing is killed, the Dragon Clan will surely retaliate, and they will likely be implicated as well.
As a result, they naturally kept their distance from Nezha.
Even though they knew that the dragon that broke through the giant wave and protected Chen Tang Pass that day was Lin Xuan, they were still unwilling to get close.
Lin Xuan ignored the stares and walked out of the city.
As I passed by the city gate, I saw many people with their families, wanting to move to other cities.
People crowded at the entrance, forming a long queue.
Too lazy to wait, he leaped out and flew into the air.
Seeing this, Nezha clapped his hands with a smile, and the thought of competing with Lin Xuan arose in his mind. He also flew up and chased after him.
After they left, many people rushed out from the crowd, stomping their feet and shaking their heads as they watched Lin Xuan and Nezha's figures grow further and further away.
"The Third Young Master suddenly ran away, should we still chase after him?" someone asked.
The others shook their heads with wry smiles: "What's the point of chasing him! You know how powerful the Third Young Master is; even our General is helpless against him. How could we possibly catch up?"
"Never mind, let's go back and report to the general first!"
It turns out that these people were sent out by Li Jing to meet Lin Xuan and Nezha.
These people turned to leave, but then noticed something and stared at a stranger, asking:
"My friend, which government office do you work for? Did you recently join the General's Office?"
This person rushed out with them when they rushed out of the crowd.
The man did not answer, but turned and left at an odd speed, and seemed to possess some kind of magic.
They disappeared into the crowd in the blink of an eye.
Upon seeing this, the general's men frowned and exchanged glances.
One of them hesitated and said, "Isn't this person one of General Li's men? What exactly is that set of clothes...?"
"Forget it, who cares who he is, let's report to the general first!" Another person shook his head and interrupted.
In the sky, Lin Xuan and Nezha ran one after the other towards the inland.
The two were moving so fast, like a rainbow.
Along the way, they disturbed many monsters, who peeked out of their caves, but after just one glance, they were so frightened that they shrank back inside.
The two people in the sky were far too powerful; they were not people they could afford to provoke.
They flew hundreds of miles before landing on the ground.
This world is many times larger than Earth.
Chentang Pass may not seem large, but its jurisdiction covers an area comparable to that of a medium-sized country.
Therefore, even though they flew so far, they were still within the area of Chentang Pass and had not left the instance.
Nezha looked concerned and asked Lin Xuan, "Brother Lin, didn't you suffer some kind of hidden injury during your last battle with Ao Bing?"
"Otherwise, how come your magical power today is far inferior to what it was back then?"
Lin Xuan coughed twice.
He didn't use the "Even a powerful dragon can't suppress a local snake" technique, so his level was much lower and his magical power wasn't as strong.
In fact, if he didn't have the skill of "riding the wind," his speed would be even slower.
Nezha would be even more worried.
Lin Xuan gave a few perfunctory replies, saying he was fine, and then got down to business:
"Nezha, didn't you just ask me how to deal with the heavenly soldiers?"
Nezha's attention was indeed drawn, and he nodded repeatedly.
Lin Xuan said:
"Let me tell you, it's simple. It's just a matter of dealing with whatever comes your way."
Nezha frowned, not quite understanding what he was saying.
Lin Xuan smiled and said, "Nezha, don't worry, I will have my own way of dealing with the heavenly soldiers. Just trust me."
Nezha muttered, "Of course I believe you, but why do I always feel like what you're saying is unreliable?"
Lin Xuan could tell that Nezha was unsure, so he added:
"Anyway, just trust me."
"I have some things to take care of these next two days, so you should go home first. Also, don't believe anything anyone tells you."
"Especially if someone asks you to bow down and admit your mistakes to the Dragon King, or even to do something like an apology, you absolutely must not listen, understand?"
