Chapter 137 He clearly ran away!
Chapter 137 He clearly ran away!
Lin Xuan closed his eyes and remained silent. Ming Xin had no choice but to take the scale and walk away backwards.
At first, he was a little unsure, but after carefully examining the scales for a while, he gradually gained confidence.
The scales were extraordinary; just holding them in one's hands made one feel a cool sensation throughout the body.
Moreover, along the way, all kinds of creatures in the Taoist temple, whether cats, dogs, mosquitoes, moths, or flies, avoided him and dared not approach him at all.
Bai Suzhen is a great demon who has lived for thousands of years. Even if it is just a token, the demonic power contained in it should not be underestimated.
Mingxin is human and not yet that sensitive, so he cannot directly sense this power.
However, those creatures that have not developed intelligence are the most astute.
Mingxin breathed a sigh of relief and nodded to himself. It seemed that the new abbot was much more reliable than Qingyangzi.
After Mingxin walked away, Lin Xuan left the room, closed the door, and did not make any additional arrangements.
It leaped up and soared into the sky, attracting no attention, and reached a height of several hundred feet before disappearing into the clouds.
【Ride the wind!】
As his level increased, Lin Xuan became more and more adept at using this divine ability.
Upon entering the clouds, Lin Xuan spun around in place, revealing his true form, and swayed forward, traversing the sky.
Occasionally, someone would look up and see Lin Xuan's presence, unable to distinguish whether it was a natural phenomenon or a real dragon, and would still kneel and kowtow.
Lin Xuan didn't care at all; he opened the task panel.
The enemy will arrive in 9:06 AM. Please survive their siege.
Less than a day left!
Lin Xuan felt a little nervous. Although the process of obtaining the "Clone Technique" went smoothly, the important part was yet to come.
He did not return directly to Chentang Pass.
After flying more than a hundred miles from Mozhu City, they saw a pond high in the sky, immediately landed, and plunged into the water.
This place is not far from the East China Sea, and the terrain is low-lying, with similar ponds everywhere.
Lin Xuan was only flying a little longer in order to find a slightly larger area.
After entering the pond, he did not make any further preparations and simply hovered at the bottom of the pond.
At this moment, in the entire East China Sea, from the powerful dragon race to the fish, turtles, shrimps, and crabs that have just awakened a tiny bit of intelligence, who would dare to cause trouble on the shore?
They were all waiting quietly, waiting for Ao Guang, the Dragon King of the East Sea, to bring the Heavenly Army to punish Lin Xuan.
As for the monsters on land, they were all terrified and scattered in all directions, not daring to go out easily.
Therefore, Lin Xuan didn't need to worry about being disturbed at all.
He coiled in the pond, his enormous size causing the water to overflow and wet the surrounding land.
Soon after, several tiny figures appeared on the surface of the pond.
They are all made of pool water, and they are very lifelike.
This is Lin Xuan practicing the "Clone Technique," trying to condense several clones at once.
Being in the pond meant they had arrived at Lin Xuan's home turf.
Sure enough, he became even more adept at using the magic.
Not only were the condensed clones more flexible and their movements no longer stiff, but several clones were indeed condensed.
But Lin Xuan was not satisfied.
"Not enough! These clones are far too few!"
He withdrew his magic, and his clones shattered, splashing water that hit the surface of the pond and created ripples.
Next, Lin Xuan kept trying, and the number of clones he could create increased.
As time went by, the moon rose and set, and the third day arrived.
In Chentang Pass, a scene of bleak winds and bitter rain unfolded.
Nezha was a big mouth and didn't think about keeping secrets.
Not long after, the Dragon King of the East Sea went to the Heavenly Court to request reinforcements, and the reinforcements were about to arrive at Chentang Pass.
The news spread like wildfire, and within half a day, everyone in Chentang Pass knew about it.
And everyone believed it.
The people of Chentang Pass were more knowledgeable and understood that since the Dragon King of the East Sea had submitted to the Heavenly Court...
So, the Jade Emperor could not stand idly by when the son of one of his ministers was killed.
Moreover, it is said that the Jade Emperor's court is filled with countless immortals and heavenly soldiers.
Sending tens of thousands of heavenly soldiers to help is not a difficult task at all.
"It's over, it's over, it's all over! We can't even handle a single immortal normally, and now tens of thousands of heavenly soldiers have come all at once..."
Li Jing was sweating profusely and fidgeting.
Inside the general's mansion, the others also looked grim, unsure of how to proceed.
Only Nezha remained carefree, patting his chest and taking on all the responsibilities.
"Don't worry, it's just ten thousand heavenly soldiers and generals. My elder brother and I will take action together."
"I'll take advantage of the situation. I'll kill him for eight thousand, and leave the remaining two thousand for Brother Lin."
"What's there to worry about?"
Hearing Nezha say such heartless words, Li Jing was so angry he laughed, then shook his head helplessly, not knowing what to say.
This unfilial son has never seen the power of the heavenly soldiers, that's why he doesn't know his own limitations!
Even General Li Jing was extremely worried, let alone the others.
Countless people were terrified and fled the city with their families.
In fact, they also knew that if the Heavenly Court were to unleash its wrath and take it out on Chentang Pass, it would be a serious matter.
Even if they run away now, even if they run dozens of miles away, they have no chance of survival.
The third prince of the East Sea Dragon King almost flooded Chen Tang Pass with the waves he casually stirred up.
Although Lin Xuan intervened and saved the city gate.
However, the giant wave still caused great damage as it passed around the city, and the surrounding area for dozens of miles was also affected.
Are the methods of the Heavenly Army inferior to those of the Third Prince Ao Bing?
Although they understood this principle, they still fled, leaving the rest to fate.
Many people did not leave and remained in Chentang Pass.
It wasn't that they believed the city walls could protect them, nor did they trust Nezha and Lin Xuan; it was simply that they had no other choice but to hope that the gods of Heaven wouldn't go on a killing spree.
Jinzha and Muzha were patrolling the city. At this time, the people in the city were in a state of panic, and some people were committing crimes.
Rumors spread, and many people said that Li Jing's whole family had run away, taking Nezha with them to the capital, Chaoge.
At this point, only Jinzha and Muzha could suppress these rumors.
They circled the city several times before finally calming people down and returning to the general's mansion to meet Li Jing.
Jin Zha said with a mournful face:
"Father, you must think of something! If this continues, before the heavenly troops even arrive, our Chen Tang Pass will be in chaos!"
Although Mu Zha did not speak, he nodded in agreement.
Li Jing looked up unhappily and glared at his two sons, his meaning clear.
If I had a solution, I would have used it long ago. Why would I be sitting here worrying?
Seeing this, Jinzha and Muzha sighed, lowered their heads, and stopped talking.
Sensing the oppressive atmosphere in the room, Nezha stood up unhappily.
"Old Deng, you really didn't take my words seriously just now? Didn't I already say that the heavenly soldiers are nothing to worry about? My brother Lin and I..."
"Hmph, and you're still talking about your so-called Brother Lin!" Li Jing suddenly interrupted.
"You're a perfectly normal human, it's one thing to become sworn brothers with a dragon, but why do you even acknowledge him as your elder brother?"
Nezha said unhappily, "So what? Brother Lin is indeed older than me!"
Seeing that Nezha remained unrepentant, Li Jing sneered, stood up, walked up to Nezha, and said:
"Old? That dragon may have lived a long time, but it's incredibly brave!"
Nezha was immediately displeased and slammed his fist on the table, shouting, "You're not allowed to talk about my Brother Lin like that! This is slander!"
Li Jing wanted to see Nezha with that expression. He crossed his arms, and his cold smile turned into a sneer.
"That's clearly the truth! If that guy were really that bold, why would he suddenly run away and never come back?"
Nezha was speechless, and Lin Xuan left in a hurry, which was indeed difficult to explain.
His eyes darted around, his face flushed, and he stammered, "Brother Lin... he went to find a way!"
Li Jing became smug and seized upon the loophole in Nezha's words.
"Think of a way? Think of what way? Didn't you just pat your chest and say that the heavenly soldiers were nothing to fear?"
"Why bother going out and figuring out how to deal with a bunch of chickens and dogs?"
Older gingers are more spicy.
Li Jing's cultivation and magical power were indeed far inferior to Nezha's, but his skill in using words far surpassed his.
Nezha was speechless, both anxious and angry. He stomped his feet in circles, cracking the floor tiles and making a crisp sound.
Upon hearing this, Li Jing not only remained calm but also felt a sense of satisfaction. He sat back down, extended his hand, and beckoned to Jin Zha:
"Go, pour me a cup of tea."
Jin Zha was helpless and dared not disobey his father's order, so he poured a cup of hot tea.
The tea was piping hot, radiating heat.
Li Jing took the teacup, felt it was too hot to handle, frowned slightly, and showed some dissatisfaction.
He put it down and picked it up again, pulling at it several times, but finally forced himself to drink it all in one gulp, then showed a look of ecstasy.
"Excellent tea! Excellent tea!"
Li Jing's leisurely demeanor indeed provoked Nezha.
Nezha jumped up and down and shouted, regardless of anything else. His voice was deafening, and even the roof beams trembled, with dust constantly falling.
"Hmph, anyway, my Brother Lin isn't going to run away! He'll definitely find a way to defeat the heavenly soldiers!"
Li Jing was also covered in dust, looking rather disheveled. He was forced to put down his teacup and shake himself off.
No matter what, he was a general, and his cultivation was not enough to make him a match for the dragons in the East Sea, but dealing with dust was still a piece of cake for him.
His body trembled, shaking off the dust.
After doing all this, Li Jing squinted at Nezha and said provocatively, "Trying to find a way? I don't think he can!"
"Don't let your imagination run wild. In my opinion, that dragon has clearly escaped to a very far distance!"
"What he said to you was simply to keep you calm and make you stay to take the fall..."
Seeing that their father was about to stir things up again, Jinzha and Muzha couldn't sit still any longer and hurriedly came over.
Jinzha showed concern for Li Jing, interrupting him and preventing him from speaking.
Muzha grabbed Nezha and pulled him outside, whispering, "Third brother, don't listen to Father. That's just his nature."
"In my opinion, Lin Xuan is still... still quite good. He has a sense of responsibility and won't just run away like that."
Upon hearing this, Nezha managed to calm himself down, shrugged, and panted as he said:
"Yes, that must be it!"
"Hmph, let's see what old Deng can say when Brother Lin gets back!"
Mu Zha smiled bitterly to himself, silently looking up at the sky. Could Lin Xuan really come back? In truth, he believed Li Jing's words.
Faced with the overwhelming force of the Heavenly Army, how many people on Earth could withstand such pressure?
Perhaps it was our lawless king of the Shang Dynasty, a man who dared to show disrespect even to the goddess Nuwa.
The Heavenly Court may not really be taken seriously.
Unfortunately, Lin Xuan wasn't the King of Shang; the King of Shang had the Mandate of Heaven protecting him...
Mu Zha started to have wild thoughts.
It was quite a while before he was awakened by Nezha shaking him.
Nezha pointed one finger to the sky and grabbed Muzha with the other:
"Brother, look, why has the sky suddenly turned dark? Is it going to rain?"
