At the beginning of the world, all living beings had spirits. However, all living beings sought luck and avoided calamity. Even immortals were no exception.
The Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King Li Jing was the commander of Chentang Pass before the Great God-Conferment War. At that time, he was still a cultivator and could not even be considered an immortal. When the dust of the Great God-Conferment War settled, he entered the Celestial Court and became a great immortal.
However, Li Jing seemed to be brave and righteous, but he was actually extremely afraid of death. It could be seen from something that had happened during the Great God-Conferment War in the past.
In the past, Nezha had caused trouble in the sea and pulled out the dragon's tendons and skin. It had angered the Dragon King of the East Ocean. He had gathered a million members of the Sea Clan to go to Chentang Pass to denounce him. In order to prevent himself from being implicated, Li Jing had personally handed Nezha over and allowed the Dragon King of the East Ocean to deal with him.
It was also that year that the relationship between father and son was severed. Nezha cut his bones to return to his father and flesh to return to his mother. He died tragically in front of Chentang Pass. If not for Nezha's master, Perfected Taiyi, who had regathered his body, Nezha would have died before the Great God-Conferment War.
When the Great God-Conferment War began, Nezha followed his master's orders and went down the mountain. He had made many contributions in the Great God-Conferment War. It was also because of his master's mediation and the matchmaking of many disciples of Chan School that the father and son reconciled.
After the Great God-Conferment Tribulation, the father and son became important ministers of the Celestial Court. However, what happened back then had always been a barrier between the father and son. The two of them could be said to be harmonious on the surface.
Now, the Celestial Court had changed. The Jade Emperor and Queen Mother had already died. The immortals of Chan School had retreated. Ye Tiandi had just ascended to the position of Heavenly Emperor, and the situation was already set. Li Jing knew that he had no one to rely on.
As the saying goes, even a vicious tiger would not eat its cubs. If Li Jing killed Nezha personally in order to survive, even if he could survive today, he would probably face the torrential anger of Chan School in the future.
However, Li Jing also knew that if he did not kill Nezha, he would definitely die today. There was no hope of survival.
The choice of life and death was right in front of him. It was a huge problem. Li Jing did not know how to choose.
"Heh!"
Suddenly, the corners of Ye Xuan's mouth curled into a cold smile. He walked in front of the father and son and said in a calm voice, "Li Jing, don't say that I didn't give you a chance. It's you who didn't know how to cherish it."
"Nezha, I'll give you a chance now. As long as you kill Li Jing, you'll still be the Great God of the Three Seas. I can even help you enter the Zenith Heaven Realm quickly. What do you think?" Ye Xuan said calmly.
"Ye Xuan, if you want to kill me, go ahead. There's no need to drive a wedge between us."
Nezha had a resolute personality and was not afraid of death at all. He was even more dismissive of Ye Xuan's words. He looked at Ye Xuan with eyes full of anger and resentment. If not for his low cultivation, he would have killed Ye Xuan long ago.
"Haha!"
Ye Xuan laughed out loud and said, "I admire people who are not afraid of death. You, Nezha, are one of them. However, people like you who aren't afraid of death don't end well."
Ye Xuan's smile disappeared when he said that. His expression turned cold and ruthless. He pointed his finger with immortal light and directly removed the Immortal Binding Rope on the father and son.
"Whether you kill your father or your son, this will be decided by the two of you. However, you must understand that only one of you can live in front of the Southern Heavenly Gate."
Ye Xuan said and slowly retreated. However, there was a strange look in his eyes when he looked at the father and son.
At this moment.
Li Jing and Nezha were no longer restrained. The immortal power in their bodies could already be used. However, facing Ye Xuan and the other Immortals of the Celestial Court, the father and son had solemn expressions. They knew that the two of them could not break out of the encirclement.
"Father, kill me." Nezha was very fearless and was not afraid of death. He looked at Li Jing with a determined gaze.
"Child, how can I kill you?"
As the saying goes, even a vicious tiger would not eat its cubs. Li Jing's tiger eyes were filled with tears. When he clenched his fists tightly, his veins were exposed. He gritted his teeth so hard that they creaked.
"Heavenly Emperor, I've brought them."
Suddenly, a cold voice sounded. The Evil Immortal of Forgetfulness flew over. However, there were two young men in front of him who were restrained by the Immortal Binding Rope.
"Jinzha? Muzha? "
When these two youths appeared in Li Jing's eyes, the expressions of Li Jing and Nezha instantly changed. They abruptly looked at Ye Xuan with eyes that were as red as blood.
"Father, Third Brother!" Jinzha and Muzha said with trembling voices. However, the Immortal Binding Rope restrained the two of them. They could not move at all.
"The so-called benevolence, righteousness, and morality are just a kind of fig leaf to me. Today, your family is reunited. You should thank me."
Ye Xuan smiled. He looked back at the Evil Immortal of Forgetfulness and said with a dark voice, "Kill them."
"Yes, Heavenly Emperor!" The Evil Immortal of Forgetfulness smiled sinisterly and bowed to Ye Xuan.
"No!"
Nezha roared. The Fire-tipped Spear suddenly appeared in his hand. His cultivation as an Overarching Heaven Xuan Immortal erupted as he charged at the Evil Immortal of Forgetfulness, hoping to save Jinzha and Muzha.
The Evil Immortal of Forgetfulness smiled disdainfully as Nezha's rage attacked. He was an ancient great ability user, and a powerhouse of both evil and demonic sects. He was at the second watershed of the Grand Heavenly Immortal Realm. How could a mere Nezha be his opponent?
Bang!
A beam of bloody light shot out from the Evil Immortal of Forgetfulness's hand and sent Nezha flying. A cruel smile appeared on the Evil Immortal of Forgetfulness's lips as a pair of terrifying bloody claws viciously clawed at Jinzha and Muzha.
"No, father, save me!"
Jinzha and Muzha trembled and cried for help in the face of death. However, the two of them could not even resist the Evil Immortal of Forgetfulness.
Bang!
Bang! The void exploded as a bloody mist appeared. Li Jing and Nezha stared blankly as Jinzha and Muzha were killed by the Evil Immortal of Forgetfulness's claw. Even their primordial spirits were annihilated by the Evil Immortal of Forgetfulness's evil arts.
Their souls were scattered, and they did not even have the chance to reincarnate. This was the fate of Jinzha and Muzha.
"Ye Xuan, I'll kill you!"
Nezha roared with hatred. The Heaven and Earth Ring rolled out with the Chaotic Sky Sash, turning into two streaks of light that shot towards Ye Xuan. However, there was no need for Ye Xuan to do anything against Nezha's weak attack. Shen Gongbao pointed out with his finger and sent Nezha flying. His body was covered in blood as he suffered a severe injury.
Bang!
Nezha's body crumbled as blood flowed out of his mouth. He crashed heavily onto the ground. No one knew if he was dead or alive.
"Ye Tiandi, kill us if you want. There's no need to torture us like this." Li Jing said hatefully as his body trembled uncontrollably.
"Li Jing, you're too sanctimonious and too afraid of death. Why do you have to pretend to be so righteous?"
Ye Xuan said as he walked towards Li Jing. When he came to Li Jing's side, he patted his shoulder affectionately and said in a low voice, "You're just afraid that after killing Nezha, you won't be able to explain to the Chan Sect and will be cursed by all living beings in the Three Realms. From then on, there will be no place for you in the Three Realms."
