Chapter 43: Fateful of murder, he allowed his son to commit atrocities!
"My child, you have excellent skills!"
"I never expected that you would learn such a great skill after following the Taoist priest up the mountain for seven years!"
Ji Chang was both delighted and surprised. Such methods were extraordinary, with immense power accompanying him in every move.
"My lord, my father!"
"You should relinquish this dragon horse, so that I may carry you across the five passes and return to our homeland of Xiqi!"
Xin Huan immediately spoke, looking at Ji Changdao.
"The dragon-horse has a spirit; it is not that Chang is unrighteous!"
"I'm leaving you behind today, but the Shang army is closing in. If I take you with me, I'm afraid my life will be in danger."
"I am leaving you now. Go as you please. You may choose another good master and stay away from the war along the way."
After saying this, Ji Chang shed tears as he bid farewell to his horse.
After saying this, Ji Chang released the horse back to the mountain. Under Xin Huan's protection, he used magic to control the wind and passed through five passes.
In less than half a day, they arrived at the foot of Mount Xiqi.
"My lord, we have already passed through the five passes."
"Not far ahead lies the ancient land of Xiqi."
Xin Huan pointed to the ancient land of Xiqi not far away. Upon seeing it, Ji Chang couldn't help but burst into tears.
"Seven years have passed since I left, and today I see my homeland again, all thanks to the divine power of my child."
And speaking of Ji Chang's calamity, I was moved to write this.
"You flatter me, my lord!"
"Now that the ruler and father have been freed from their predicament, they should emulate King Cheng Tang of old, who was imprisoned in Xiatai, and returned to the country in a single day to serve the world."
Xin Huan immediately spoke, then looked at Ji Chang.
Meanwhile, on the other side, Tai Jiang of Xiqi was thinking of Xibo in the palace when she suddenly heard three gusts of wind, accompanied by a roar.
Tai Jiang ordered her maid to burn incense and use coins to calculate the innate numbers, thus knowing that her son, the Marquis of Xibo, had already arrived at the foot of Mount Xiqi.
Tai Jiang was overjoyed and immediately summoned all the officials and the princes to go to the foot of Xiqi Mountain to welcome the emperor.
Upon hearing this, all the civil and military officials and young masters were overjoyed. Everyone was delighted, and the people of Xiqi led sheep and carried wine, burning incense in every household, the fragrant smoke rising along the roads.
For a time, Xiqi City was bustling with activity.
Civil and military officials and a group of young nobles, all dressed in bright red auspicious robes, arrived at the foot of Mount Xiqi to prepare to welcome Ji Chang.
"In the past, during the reign of the Shang dynasty, we suffered such a great calamity. Unexpectedly, we have returned today, after more than seven years!"
"The green hills remain, but the people and things have changed."
As Ji Chang was sighing, he saw two red flags waving in the distance, followed by the sound of a cannon and a procession of soldiers.
On both sides of the road, people came from the left and right. Among them were General Nangong Shi and Grand Master San Yisheng, who led four sages, eight talents, and a group of young masters to lie in ambush by the roadside.
"My lord, messengers from Xiqi have arrived!"
Xin Huan immediately spoke up, and then Ji Fa came closer. After a brief conversation, they invited Ji Chang to change his clothes and ride in the carriage.
After exchanging pleasantries with Ji Chang and others, Ji Chang changed into royal robes and rode in a palanquin, with Xin Huan accompanying him into Xiqi City.
Along the way, cheers filled the air, and music was played along the roadside. Incense was burned in every household, and every family was decorated with colorful decorations.
Ji Chang sat upright in his imperial carriage, with attendants on both sides, banners and canopies blocking out the sun, and the people all around him bowed down.
The journey was peaceful and stable, and they arrived in Xiqi City.
Ji Chang stepped forward and led Xin Huan to recognize Ji Fa and the others, thus reaffirming their brotherhood.
Before Xin Huan could even recover for a few days...
On this day, a golden light streaked across the sky, transforming into a jade talisman that landed in Xin Huan's hands.
"Brother Xin Huan, it's extremely urgent..."
Xin Huan quickly glanced at the jade talisman and couldn't help but frown. It turned out that this jade talisman was given to him by Li Jing.
"This Nezha is truly destined for a life of slaughter!"
"Even without the Xuanyuan Qiankun Bow, I never expected Nezha would still clash with Lady Shiji of Skull Mountain!"
It turns out that this was Li Nezha, who somehow obtained a great opportunity and subdued a blue luan and a fire phoenix.
The Azure Phoenix and the Fire Phoenix recognized Nezha as their master and transformed into the Wind and Fire Wheels, allowing Nezha to fly and escape into the earth.
From then on, Nezha wandered around all day.
On this day, Nezha drove his Wind Fire Wheels to the territory of Skull Mountain, where he encountered Biyun Boy, a disciple of Lady Shiji. The two got into a fight in the mountain.
Enraged, Nezha unleashed the Universe Ring, and with a single blow, he shattered the brains of the Jade Cloud Boy.
The death of Biyun Boy alarmed Shiji.
Shi Ji flew out of the cave and fought with Nezha again. Nezha, relying on his magic weapon, managed to escape with his life.
Lady Shiji was furious and relentlessly pursued him.
Having finally arrived at Chentang Pass, Li Jing hurriedly stepped in to smooth things over, but to his surprise, Shi Ji didn't buy it.
In desperation, Li Jing had no choice but to ask Xin Huan for help, and he also called on several fellow Daoists to come and assist him.
"It is only natural that Nezha is destined to face calamities and killings; all causes and effects are beyond human control. This Nezha truly faces countless calamities!"
"That's enough, that's enough!"
"Those Five Elemental Pearls of Creation aren't so easy to obtain!"
Xin Huan shook his head. He knew that Nuwa's Five Elemental Pearls of Creation wouldn't be so easily accepted.
The cause and effect here is exactly what we're talking about!
"It's just a calamity; we'll get through it!"
"This mere Shi Ji is a heretic and unorthodox practitioner, his cultivation no more than that of a Celestial Immortal. Just kill him!"
Xin Huan found Ji Chang, explained the reason, and then bid farewell to everyone before arriving at Chen Tang Pass.
"Li Jing, even if you are the unworthy commander-in-chief of Chen Tang Pass in the Great Shang Dynasty, you were once a member of the Taoist sect!"
"You've neglected to manage your subordinates, and someone beat my servant boy to death. Why haven't you released him yet?"
When Shi Ji arrived at Chen Tang Pass, she immediately came to question him, but Li Jing was determined to protect his son and refused to release him.
"Fellow Daoist Shiji, everything can be discussed!"
Li Jing immediately stepped forward. Now that Nezha had caused a great disaster outside, he was helpless, but there was nothing he could do. This was his own mischievous child, and he had to protect him no matter what.
"You, Li Jing with your thick eyebrows and big eyes, I never thought you would actually do something like protecting criminals."
Shi Ji frowned and glared coldly, and immediately rebuked him again.
"Fellow Daoist Shiji!"
"The sinner you speak of is my third son. What am I to do now?"
Li Jing was extremely conflicted, and immediately spoke again.
"You, Li Jing, how dare you let your son kill someone!"
Upon hearing this, Lady Shiji was so enraged that she spewed fire. It turned out that this damned little beast was her son.
Shi Ji grew angrier the more she thought about it, and finally lost her temper.
"You have allowed your son to commit such acts of violence, and have failed to teach him anything. His current behavior is partly your own doing!"
"Since you refuse to hand over that guilty child, then I will seize you and make you pay for my boy's life."
After saying this, Lady Shiji conjured up the Eight Trigrams Cloud Light Cloth and used the Eight Gates Golden Lock Formation to trap Li Jing.
That Bagua Cloud Light Cloth is a primordial magic treasure, containing the treasures of Kan, Li, Zhen, and Dui, encompassing all things, and engraved with the Daoist essence of the primordial Bagua.
After trapping Li Jing, Lady Shiji immediately summoned the Yellow Turban Warriors, who captured Li Jing as well.
"That sinner has many magical treasures, and I don't think I can defeat him, but you are different."
"Li Jing, you have not yet achieved immortality, and your cultivation is not deep enough. If I capture you, I can easily deal with that criminal."
Lady Shiji immediately spoke up, saying that if you can't get rid of Nezha, then take down Li Jing.
As the saying goes: If a child is not taught, it is the father's fault!
If we capture Li Jing, we won't have to worry about Nezha refusing to submit!
