Don't let Yu Ding take on any more disciples.

Chapter 455 Today, I, Yu Ding, will vindicate myself.
"Quickly stuff it in, don't worry, your mind is in turmoil. Look at how confused you are right now."

Yu Ding quickly waved his hand: "Old... Teacher Randeng and the others are so calm and fearless because they know you are protective of your own. Wouldn't your going be exactly what they want?"

"Me, protecting my own? Don't you, Yu Ding, protect your own?"

Taiyi laughed angrily: "When your disciple caused havoc in the Heavenly Palace, why weren't you so calm? Instead, you were like someone whose pants were on fire, and you almost lost your shoes in the process?"

"Fine, so you, Taiyi, are exposing my weaknesses, huh?" Yu Ding said, "We are different."

Taiyi sneered, "They've all brought trouble to the Heavenly Court, so tell me, what's the difference?"

“The nature of the crimes is different. My apprentice caused trouble alone, but this time your apprentice committed the crime as a group.”

Yu Ding said matter-of-factly, "My disciple can only rely on me, his master, to clean up the mess, but this time your disciple has a group of masters behind him."

"A gang..." Taiyi gritted his teeth and said, "Then your disciple took the initiative to attack the Heavenly Court, while my disciple was forced to go to Heaven to save his father."

“Brother, you are mistaken. My disciples are all learned in ancient and modern times, civilized, polite, familiar with the laws of heaven and the law of the king.”

Yu Ding smiled and said, "They went to Heaven to debate the law and reason. Did they do this only for personal gain? No, they did it to improve the rules of Heaven and benefit all living beings in the primordial world. They didn't have any complaints about Heaven. Senior Brother, you can't say that their starting point is wrong."

Taiyi was stunned for a moment after hearing this, then sneered, "Sophistry!"

Even though he knew the inside story, he was stunned for a moment and almost believed Yu Ding's nonsense.

Yu Ding smiled slightly: "Senior brother, don't get so angry. Getting angry will damage your liver. Excessive liver fire will cause an imbalance of the five elements in your chest, which will affect your performance when facing an enemy."

Taiyi glanced at the talisman on his body, rolled his eyes, and snorted coldly, "Fine, then I'll do whatever you say. Now let me go!"

He still felt lingering fear when he recalled what had just happened.

Just as he was about to head to the Heavenly Court, Yu Ding and Huang Long exchanged a single glance, and without any warning, they attacked him from behind.

He could hardly describe how fast it was; in the blink of an eye, the three divine talismans from the jade cauldron landed on him.

A brow seal sealed his primordial spirit, a Heavenly Gate sealed the Three Flowers and Five Qi, and a Dantian Purple Mansion sealed his magical power.

At the same time, Huanglong transformed into Huanglong Rope without warning, binding him tightly and stuffing his mouth with the rope end formed from its tail.

In the blink of an eye, Taiyi Zhenren, one of the Twelve Immortals of Jade Void, lost the ability to resist. His vast supernatural powers and profound magic were unable to exert even a fraction of their influence.

Although there were elements of a sneak attack and his carelessness in not being on guard, who would believe it if this got out?
You should know that even a Great Luo Golden Immortal like Zhao Gongming, who has attained the Great Luo Dao Fruit, wouldn't be able to defeat him in one move, right?

At this moment, he had been defeated by those two bastards, Yu Ding and Huang Long, and he was extremely frustrated.

"Yu Ding, what do you mean?" Huang Longsuo asked.

Yu Ding chuckled and stepped forward to untie the ropes, saying, "It's good that Senior Brother Taiyi understands. I'll untie you now. Senior Brother, I'm sorry for offending you this time."

"Why would I need you to untie it? I can just loosen it myself."

Huanglong said, “But Taiyi, I must make it clear to you first that this whole thing was Yuding’s idea and has nothing to do with me.”

As he spoke, he transformed into a beam of yellow divine light and landed, becoming a yellow dragon.

As Yu Ding reached out to remove the divine talisman from Taiyi's body, he scolded, "What you're saying is completely unnecessary. Is Senior Brother Taiyi the kind of person who is unreasonable and can't distinguish right from wrong?"

Huanglong: (︶︿︶)＝凸
As Yu Ding removed the divine talisman from Taiyi's body, Taiyi Zhenren closed his eyes slightly, his primordial spirit circulated, and golden light emanated from his body, as the sealed power returned once more.

"Senior brother, are you alright?" Yu Ding asked with concern.

Taiyi glanced at him: "You know perfectly well why I'm asking this."

Yu Ding gave an awkward smile.

Taiyi narrowed his eyes and smiled, "Yuding, you're quite the player, even using something like the Jade Purity Divine Talisman on me. I wasn't prepared just now, how about we spar again and let your brother see what level your 'Breakthrough and Reconstruction' has reached?"

This Jade Purity Divine Talisman is a divine talisman passed down by their master. It is a sacred talisman for the sect and one of the highest inheritances of the Chan Sect.

This divine talisman elucidates the profound principles of the universe and has endless uses. Apart from the twelve true disciples, there are not many qualified practitioners who can cultivate it.

As Taiyi Zhenren laughed, the atmosphere here suddenly became tense.

"If you really want to spar, senior brother, let's arrange a time another day and give it a try. There's no time right now."

Yu Ding looked up at the sky and said, "It seems that Teacher Randeng and the others have set off."

I've been compiling your intelligence for over a century, do you think I'm afraid of you?
This is just a small test. Let's set a time, and even if you, Taiyi, are a Great Luo Golden Immortal, I'll still take you down.

Huang Long asked in surprise, "No, how did you know that? Your divination skills are that strong?"

Taiyi Zhenren also looked over, and now he was also a little curious.

Why is it that Yu Ding is always able to obtain first-hand information at the first opportunity?

"I'm not good at divination, that's why I've pushed the clone technique to its limits..." Yu Ding was about to speak with a smile when Huang Long cautiously probed, "Don't tell me you also have a clone over at Lingjiu Mountain."

Yu Ding's lips twitched, and he felt a little uncomfortable being stared at by the two of them, so he could only say, "How could that be? Why would I create so many clones if there's nothing wrong with them? They're consuming my magic power every moment. I have a friend on Lingjiu Mountain."

"Friends?" Taiyi gave Yu Ding a deep look.

Huang Long muttered to himself, "What friend? I don't know anything about them."

"You'll understand later. Alright, stop worrying about these trivial details. The important thing is to get down to business."

Yu Ding changed the subject, saying, "I wonder how the Li family father and son are doing. Let's set off too. Senior Brother Huanglong, why are you still sitting here? Come along!"

Huang Long said slowly, "So many people have already gone this time, why do I still need to go?"

"They're there to support us. There are three of them, and I, Senior Brother Taiyi, and I are just one person outnumbered. More people mean more strength."

Yu Ding smiled and said, "Besides, we've always been close friends and helped each other. You helped me, so I have no choice but to take responsibility for what happened to Senior Brother Taiyi's disciple. If you have a disciple who causes trouble in the future, do you think we'll just sit idly by?"

Huang Long chuckled: "I admit that what you said, Yu Ding, makes a lot of sense, but I'm a non-apprentice. If I don't even take on apprentices, why would I be afraid of them causing trouble?"

"Fine, fine, so you put it that way..." Yu Ding gave Huang Long a deep look, then turned and left without saying a word.

Taiyi glanced at Huanglong without speaking, and together with Yuding, they transformed into two golden beams of light and shot into the sky.

"Hey, hey, you're leaving already? Would it kill you to say a few nice words?"

Huang Long watched the two men leave and suddenly stood up, displeased. "Is this how you ask for a favor? Is this how you ask for a favor?"

Above the clouds in the sky, Yu Ding and Tai Yi had not gone far, and stood waiting.

Yu Ding said thoughtfully, "So Senior Brother Huanglong likes that sense of ritual of being valued."

Taiyi nodded in agreement and said loudly, "Senior Brother Huanglong, I am grateful for your help this time."

Huang Long coughed lightly and raised his hand, saying, "Wait here, I'm coming!"

……

skyline!

At this point, the entire Heavenly Court was in complete chaos.

Thirty-six divine generals, along with the three marshals Tianpeng, Tianyou, and Yisheng, and other core forces of the Heavenly Court, appeared, leading an army of over 300,000. They formed a battle formation and amplified the killing power of the army on the divine generals and celestial soldiers.

The celestial realm has thirty-three heavens, each guarded by 100,000 celestial soldiers and generals. At this moment, the defensive forces of the three heavens have been mobilized.

Boom!
The roar of the battle formation gave those divine generals and celestial warriors even greater power, enabling them to contend with the five sons of the Li family and forcing Li Jing's four sons of metal, wood, water, and fire into perilous situations.

But even in this desperate situation, the four boys showed unprecedented resilience and the ferocity in their blood.

boom!
The four were filled with murderous intent. At this moment, Jinzha and Muzha were disheveled and covered in blood. Nezha used his lotus incarnation and three heads and six arms, which increased his combat power by more than six times. He was so frantic that he was killing in a frenzy because there were just too many enemies.

It's endless! It's impossible to finish!
Of the five, only Tu Zha and Shui Zha were relatively relaxed. They attracted most of the firepower and were besieged by nearly half of the gods, but they did not feel much pressure.

"This Heavenly Court is far inferior to the Demon Sealing Cave..." Ao Bing muttered to himself. After finishing the Demon Sealing Cave, he realized how easy it was to clear the Heavenly Court.

Of course, what he didn't know was that the Heavenly Court was indeed no match for the Demon Sealing Cave, but the divine generals who besieged him seemed to have many concerns when they fought.

A disciple of Yuan Hong!

A disciple of Yang Jian!

These two names were too heavy a burden. Once this label was attached to them, they could no longer act without restraint when they fought.

None of them could guarantee that if those two brats got into trouble, the other two wouldn't come back to cause trouble for Heaven again.

boom!
Little Tu Zha swung his iron rod across the sky, knocking away several divine generals who were attacking Shui Zha, and then stood back to back with Shui Zha.

"Hi, junior brother, how are you?" Little Tu Zha said with a smile.

Ao Bing glanced at him strangely and said, "What are you yelling about? I'm your third brother."

Tu Zha said earnestly, "I am your eldest brother."

Ao Bing's expression was strange: "Hey, you're not going to suffer any loss, are you?"

Tu Zha said with some helplessness, "I really am your eldest brother."

Ao Bing said seriously, "I really am your third brother, don't call me that."

Tu Zha said speechlessly, "How could Li Jing and his wife, who are both human, have a pure-blooded dragon son?"

Ao Bing's expression suddenly changed. When he looked over in surprise, Tu Zha had already extended a finger and pointed it at his back. The fingertip glowed and injected a stream of magic power.

At the same time, Tu Zha smiled meaningfully and said, "Did your master ever tell you what the secret to cultivating profound skills is?"

Ao Bing was still in a daze when Tu Zha said with a smile, "It mainly depends on talent!"

The moment that magical power entered Ao Bing's body, it was like a stream flowing into a great river, merging with his own magical power and rapidly growing stronger.

There was no repulsion between the two, as if the two forces belonged to Ao Bing, but Ao Bing felt that he had gained hundreds of years of magical power out of thin air.

"This...you really are...Senior Brother?"

Ao Bing's eyes widened, and he suddenly looked at Tu Zha with surprise: "You are Erlang Zhenjun Yang Jian, my senior brother?"

There's no need for anything else to confirm a relationship; a single cultivation secret, along with the same profound skill, is enough to explain everything.

Tu Zha's expression fell, and he said, "He can only be the second oldest in front of me. Yang Jian is your second senior brother."

"what?"

Ao Bing was even more surprised and suddenly became alert, saying, "I know, you are a traitor who was expelled from the sect by Master, so Master has never mentioned to us that there is a senior brother."

"I'll betray you, my ass..." Tu Zha looked at Ao Bing, whose clear eyes revealed a wary look.

If it weren't for the fact that the kid was so young, he really would have liked to hit him with a stick and teach him a lesson about recognizing people.

He glanced around and said, "This matter is somewhat complicated and has a long story to tell, but I am by no means a traitor who betrays his master and ancestors."

"What proof do you have?" Ao Bing remained wary. Tu Zha's face darkened: "We have no traitors or disloyal disciples in Jade Spring Mountain. If we did, Master would have already cleaned us out of the sect."

Upon hearing this, Ao Bing couldn't help but recall the terrifying killing intent and methods of his master in the Demon Sealing Cave, and nodded in agreement: "What you said makes some sense."

Even Qiongqi, one of the four ancient ferocious beasts, was subdued by his master—no, to be precise, he was tamed.

"This isn't the place to talk. Follow me, and we'll find somewhere else to talk later," Tu Zha said, glancing around.

"it is good!"

Ao Bing agreed without hesitation, then suddenly said, "Wait a minute, since you're not Li Jing's son, then you should let Nezha and the others..."

He regained consciousness and stared in disbelief as he looked around.

At a glance, there were smoking ruins everywhere, shattered fairy islands, broken palace walls, and groaning and screaming heavenly soldiers and generals.

"It's over!" Ao Bing muttered. He had been so engrossed in the fight that he had only now remembered the promise he had made to his father.

“Li Jing is my brother. I would never harm them. Now I am helping them, father and son, to become famous throughout the prehistoric world.”

Tu Zha's eyes flashed as he said, "You don't need to worry. Everything is under my control. Their master will help them clean up the mess, and there won't be any problems."

In the distance, a fierce wind howled across the sky.

"Jinzha?! Muzha?! Nezha?! Where are you...?! Summon me!"

Li Jing searched for his son with the urgency of a fire burning around him. Whenever he saw any troops supported by the Heavenly Court, he would immediately take them into his possession without hesitation.

There's no need to overthink it now; those who came here must be here to capture his sons. Once he's dealt with, the pressure on his sons will be less.

"receive!"

"I'll take it!"

Along the way, Li Jing lost count of how many heavenly soldiers and generals he had gathered; in short, wherever he went, there was utter silence and not a single person in sight.

The heavens behind him fell silent.

At this moment, in front of the magnificent South Heavenly Gate.

Ao Guang, dressed in royal robes and bowing, was blocked by the heavenly soldiers and generals guarding the South Heavenly Gate.

Ao Guang took out a memorial tablet and said, "I trouble you, General, to inform you that Ao Guang from the East Sea requests an audience and has something to report."

The general said, "Dragon King, it is truly unfortunate that demons have infiltrated the Heavenly Court and are causing chaos, making a great disturbance in the Heavenly Realm. The Heavenly Court is currently under martial law and closed off, and entry and exit are strictly prohibited."

The gods are currently apprehending him. Give me the memorial first, and I'll deliver it for you later. After all, it takes some time for it to reach the Hall of Universal Brightness.

More than just a little… Ao Guang took out a memorial tablet, handed it over, and glanced cautiously inside the Heavenly Gate, asking, “May I ask what kind of demon is so audacious as to dare to cause trouble in the Heavenly Court?”

That day, the general said, "It seems to be Li Jing, and his sons."

"Li Jing...and his sons...?"

Ao Guang's heart skipped a beat, and he felt his blood rush to his head. He snatched the memorial he had prepared to plead for Li Jing and said with a dry laugh, "I'm sorry, I suddenly remembered that I brought the wrong memorial when I left."

My goodness, he almost led the East China Sea into an abyss of destruction.

The Heavenly General looked at Ao Guang with surprise and said, "That's right, it seems to be called Jinzha, Muzha, Shuizha, Huozha. Oh, and there's also Tuzha. Hey, he's got all five elements: metal, wood, water, fire, and earth. Dragon King, isn't that funny?"

"Funny, funny..."

Ao Guang could only force a smile, but his heart was churning with turmoil.

Didn't Li Jing only have three sons?
Jinzha, Muzha, Nezha, where did Shuizha, Huozha, and Tuzha come from?

Wait a minute, could Huozha be Nezha, the son of Nezha who went to Heaven to deliver a message to Nezha...?

Ao Guang glanced inside the South Heavenly Gate, and immediately felt a darkness before his eyes, as if all his strength had been drained, and collapsed to the ground.

"Dragon King, Dragon King, what's wrong with you?"

The general was taken aback and quickly helped Ao Guang up, saying, "Why do you look so pale?"

Ao Guang lay on the ground, utterly distraught, and said, "Help...help me up, I need to find...I need to find Yu, Yu..."

That damn little dragon cub! He made such good promises to me before he left, but his words and actions don't match up.

If he were to create a hole in the sky, he wouldn't be able to patch it up.

At this moment, the only savior he could think of was Ao Bing's master, Jade Cauldron Immortal.

"Immortal Jade Cauldron, I, Ao Guang, am so sorry for raising such a disobedient son..." At this moment, Ao Guang's heart was filled with guilt towards Jade Cauldron.

Just then, a cloud of auspiciousness suddenly appeared in the distance, and three figures could be seen on it.

A man dressed in a Taoist robe with auspicious clouds rode a celestial deer in the center, with a divine wheel of spiritual light hanging behind his head. On his left and right were two immortals with a dignified and otherworldly air, clearly enlightened immortals.

The heavenly general put Ao Guang down and asked, "May I ask where the three immortals cultivate in their celestial abodes?"

The immortal on the left said, "I am Manjushri, the Heavenly Venerable of the Vast Dharma of Wulong Mountain. This is the Great Immortal of Burning Lamp of Yuanjue Cave of Lingjiu Mountain, and that is the True Man Samantabhadra of Jiugong Mountain."

Upon hearing this, Ao Guang looked down in surprise, but none of the three immortals lowered their heads to look at him.

"So it is the Jade Void Immortal who has come here. I have been disrespectful."

That day, he clasped his hands in a respectful bow and said, "I wonder what brings the Great Immortal and the two venerable immortals here today?"

Master Puxian said, "Our teacher foresaw that you would encounter danger in your Heavenly Court. Therefore, we have come to subdue the evil and restore peace to the Heavenly Court."

"I see. Someone, lead the way for the immortal."

The heavens immediately parted to make way and sent people to welcome the three inside.

"These are the legendary Burning Lamp Immortal, as well as Manjushri and Samantabhadra, two of the Twelve Immortals of Jade Void."

The heavenly general said respectfully, "You came to help when you heard that the heavenly realm was in trouble. You truly deserve to be called a great immortal and a supreme immortal."

"Attain enlightenment my foot! They're here to clean up their disciple's mess..." Ao Guang on the ground was speechless. He knew perfectly well that Li Jing had been taken in as a disciple by Randeng.

As for the other two, they were also the masters of Li Jing's two sons. Now that their disciple has caused trouble, would they dare not come?

"Is this your first time meeting the Jade Void Immortal?" Ao Guang asked.

The Heavenly General said, "It's not the first time I've seen them. I've met a few of the Twelve Immortals of Jade Void, but those few... let's not talk about them."

"Why is that?" Ao Guang asked, puzzled.

That day, the general sighed and said, "Because those few people never bring good news when they come to the Heavenly Court."

Ao Guang asked in surprise, "Who is it?"

"Who else? Taiyi, Yuding Shangxian, and Huanglong, the three immortals, especially Yuding Zhenren."

That day, he said angrily, "Although he only has two disciples, Erlang Shen and Prince Longji, these two ancestors have caused quite a commotion in our Heavenly Court. Hmm, it's similar to this time."

"Then his apprentice might get a share..." Ao Guang asked somewhat guiltily, "What does this have to do with you, the gatekeeper?"

"Why doesn't it matter?"

The heavenly general angrily said, "When Erlang Shen came to the Heavenly Court, I asked him to register, and he punched me. When Princess Longji came, I didn't dare to ask her to register, and she kicked me because she thought I was blocking her way. Tell me, what does this have to do with me, a gatekeeper?"

Ao Guang looked at him sympathetically, then suddenly seemed to see something, raised his hand and coughed twice, shaking his head and blinking repeatedly to signal that he should stop talking.

The Heavenly General laughed and said, "Look how scared you are. Actually, I have a suspicion about something now."

"What do you suspect?"

A voice asked in a very cooperative manner.

Tianjiang casually remarked, "I suspect that Li Jing is also a disciple of the Jade Cauldron Immortal."

But as soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly realized that it didn't sound like Ao Guang's voice.

His expression changed drastically, and he turned his head blankly, only to see a Taoist priest wearing a sky-blue robe with cloud patterns whose smile slowly froze after hearing his words.

Beside this Taoist priest were two other Taoist priests, one wearing a red robe and the other wearing a yellow robe.

"Jade... Jade Cauldron Immortal?"

Tian Jiang forced a smile that looked more like a grimace, then knelt down with a thud, his expression embarrassed: "I..."

Ao Guang shook his head speechlessly.

No wonder you got beaten up twice with that reaction; you're hopeless!

Yu Ding stared at him for a long time before finally managing to say, "You're using habitual thinking to solve problems, which is wrong. Li Jing is not my disciple."

I, Jade Tripod Immortal, will vindicate myself today.

Yang Jian's havoc in the Heavenly Palace was accidental, while Long Ji's havoc in the Heavenly Palace was unexpected.

Not everyone who caused havoc in the Heavenly Palace was his disciple, Yu Ding Zhenren, and we shouldn't assume that everything that happened was his doing.

Huang Long couldn't help but tease, "Yu Ding, your reputation in Heaven isn't very good."

Yu Ding said, "This time, I've come to turn my reputation around."

He smiled and patted the heavenly general on the shoulder: "The Great Immortal of Burning Lamp has arrived?"

The heavenly general nodded in fear.

Yu Ding said, "That's because Li Jing is a disciple of the Great Immortal Burning Lamp!"

Tian Jiang's pupils contracted, greatly surprised.

Yu Ding was very satisfied with his performance: "Who else is coming?"

The heavenly general cautiously said, "There are also the immortals Manjushri and Samantabhadra."

Yu Ding nodded: "That's because Li Jing's eldest son, Li Jinzha, was taught by Manjushri, the Heavenly Venerable of Vast Dharma; Li Jing's second son, Li Muzha, was taught by Samantabhadra; and Li Jing's third son..."

"Cough cough!"

Taiyi Zhenren coughed and said, "Yuding, that's enough."

Yu Ding stopped him at the right moment and said, "Remember this? Don't think of me again for every little thing that happens in Heaven. It will ruin my reputation. I, Yu Ding Zhenren, really don't like to take the blame."

Huanglong and Taiyi exchanged a glance and couldn't help but laugh.

It has to be said that thanks to the "blessings" of his two prized disciples, Yu Ding's reputation in the prehistoric world is now much greater than it was before.

The heavenly general nodded hastily, then glanced at the jade tripod and whispered, "But the master of Li Jing's third son, Shui Zha... seems to be your disciple, Erlang Zhenjun Yang Jian."
