The Journey to the West is over, and the Perfect Life System is here

Chapter 265 The Lotus Boy and the Demon Girl Mislead the Country

At this moment, Ao Guang, the Dragon King of the East China Sea, was filled with enthusiasm and excitement when he saw this scene.

His dragon clan is so powerful that it can even wrestle with a saint.

Ao Bing was also surprised. The ten quasi-saint dragons were enough to surprise him, but then a magic circle appeared that could even block a saint's attack.

This dragon clan is incredible!

However, the Immortal of the South Pole began to panic. Even his master couldn't save him. Was he going to die here?
"Dragon clan, the catastrophe of the Conferred God is approaching. I don't want to fight with you. Let Nan Ji leave and let this matter go!" Yuan Shi's face was gloomy.

He attaches great importance to face, and now he can't even avenge his apprentice's death, which shows how aggrieved he is.

However, as he said, the catastrophe of the Conferred Gods is approaching, and he doesn't want to cause any trouble.

"Let him go!" Sun Wukong waved his hand.

The formation formed by the dragon clan may be comparable to that of a saint, but there is probably still a big gap compared to Yuanshi.

Besides, killing Nan Ji is of no use. Instead, it will trigger the catastrophe prematurely and affect his overall layout.

When the dragon clan heard what Sun Wukong said, they released Nan Ji.

"From now on, I will beat up every disciple of your Chan Sect when I see him!" Ao Fang said.

"Hmph!" Nan Ji looked unhappy, but he didn't dare to talk back and just left.

"Greetings to the Patriarch Qitian!" Several quasi-saints of the dragon clan saluted Sun Wukong together.

"Well, not bad, not bad!" Sun Wukong put his hands behind his back and nodded approvingly.

The quasi-saints of the dragon clan were even more excited, as if being praised by Patriarch Qitian was a very happy thing.

However, Ao Bing was scared in his heart. After all, there were so many quasi-saints around, and he was afraid that his identity as a demon god would be exposed.

He was especially wary of the mysterious ancestor Qi Tian.

What you fear will come to you. As soon as he thought of this, he found that Sun Wukong was looking at him and smiling at him secretly, which almost scared him to death.

"Welcome Patriarch Qitian back to the Dragon Palace!" Ao Fang shouted, and all the quasi-saint dragons guarded Sun Wukong among them.

On the bottom of the sea, various kinds of divine dragons are cruising in the sea. There are more than a hundred of these dragons, and all of them have the cultivation level of Daluo.

Ao Fang transformed into a human form and said proudly, "Old Ancestor, after the Lich Calamity, our dragon clan followed your instructions and lay dormant. So far, we have ten Quasi-Saint dragons and one hundred and nineteen Daluo realm dragons."

Sun Wukong nodded with satisfaction.

The dragon clan's strength may not be the strongest in the ancient world, but they can still protect themselves.

Then Ao Fang asked again: "Old Ancestor, now that the Conferred God Tribulation is approaching, should my dragon clan intervene?"

Sun Wukong said: "No, this catastrophe has nothing to do with the dragon race, so we should use stillness to overcome movement."

Ao Fang said respectfully: "Ancestor is wise!"

Sun Wukong said again: "You go back to the Four Seas Abyss first, I will wake you up if I need you!"

"Yes!" Ao Fang and other dragons responded, then transformed into dragon bodies and entered the abyss of the four seas.

The sea returned to calm again.

"Ao Bing, come with me!" Sun Wukong suddenly turned his head. Ao Bing, who was trying hard to reduce his presence, was startled.

"Old... Old Ancestor... what are you doing?" Ao Bing shrank back. He was a little afraid that the old ancestor in front of him was going to silence him.

After all, I'm not very clean either.

"Go when the ancestor tells you to!" Ao Guang kicked Ao Bing's butt, feeling somewhat disappointed. Then he said respectfully to Sun Wukong, "Ancestor, my son's brain has been damaged from practicing martial arts a while ago. Please don't blame me, please don't blame me!"

In his opinion, it was Ao Bing's blessing to be summoned by the ancestor alone.

This silly boy, still asking so many questions?

Ao Bing walked to Sun Wukong with a sad face, and then the two disappeared in front of Ao Guang.

Sun Wukong and Ao Bing appeared above the sea. Sun Wukong didn't say anything, and Ao Bing didn't dare to say a word either.

Ao Bing was conflicted at this moment, wondering whether he should run away.

But he didn't have the confidence to escape from the hands of this mysterious and unfathomable Patriarch Qi Tian.

He still had a glimmer of hope in his heart, that is, this old ancestor did not discover his identity as a demon god.

"Don't worry, I don't hold any ill will towards you." Sun Wukong put his hands behind his back. "According to fate, you should have died at Nezha's hands. It seems the demon god can really change things."

Upon hearing this, Ao Bing's expression changed drastically.

exposed!
How to do? !

Then he breathed a sigh of relief. Judging from the old ancestor's attitude, he should be safe now.

Without waiting for Ao Bing to speak, Sun Wukong continued, "Your appearance can be said to be created by me.

The demon gods can bring many variables to the entire prehistoric world, so I hope to borrow your power to go against the will of heaven and defeat Hongjun!"

Of course, attacking Hongjun was just an excuse.

His real purpose is to find out the invisible hand that is still unknown.

Ao Bing didn't know all this. When he heard what Sun Wukong said, he felt like he was hit by a heavy hammer in his heart.

Was his appearance facilitated by this ancestor Qitian?

What a big deal!
Going against the will of heaven and attacking Hongjun, what a big tone!
Ao Bing said weakly, "Grandfather, my abilities are limited, so I won't get involved in this kind of thing."

He is just a salted fish. How could a salted fish have any bad intentions?

He didn't want to get involved in anything against the will of heaven.

"You're already in this game, and you still want to get out?" Sun Wukong sneered. "I'm not forcing you, but just imagine for yourself: if Hongjun or the Heavenly Dao discovered your existence, they would definitely wipe you out. Are you willing to do that?"

Ao Bing's heart tightened. It was too insidious!

"Being born into the dragon clan isn't a bad thing," Sun Wukong continued. "If you had abandoned the East China Sea Dragon Palace and fled on your own, I would have wiped you out without Hongjun having to do anything."

Ao Bing fell silent.

It’s true that he is a salted fish, but that doesn’t mean that salted fish are willing to die!
"Of course, I don't need you to do too much. Just wait patiently for the arrival of the Conferred God. If you believe me, I can guarantee that you will have no worries in the prehistoric world." After Sun Wukong finished speaking, he disappeared out of thin air.

It was a good thing for him to see an awakened demon god in the East China Sea Dragon Clan.

After Sun Wukong left, Ao Bing took a while to react.

He sighed helplessly in his heart: "It's so hard to be a salted fish! This Patriarch Qitian is definitely not a simple person. He dares to compete with Hongjun. Could it be that he is destiny..."

……

On the other side, the Immortal of the South Pole returned to the Yuxu Palace as quickly as possible, and he also brought back the body of Taiyi Zhenren.

"Master, Junior Brother Taiyi's body has been retrieved."

In the Yuxu Palace, the Immortal of the South Pole took out Taiyi's body.

Yuanshi frowned. Although the corpse had been cleaned by the Immortal of the South Pole, he still felt uncomfortable.

This was a corpse that had fallen into a pigsty, and he didn't even want to look at it.

Not only him, but even Taiyi Zhenren himself looked disgusted.

Yuan Shi said: "I asked your master, although Taiyi is on the list, it does not mean that he cannot be resurrected.

It's just that because he died once, his soul was damaged. Even if he returns to his body, his strength will be greatly reduced, and he may only be at the level of a Golden Immortal."

"Ao Bing!" Taiyi gritted his teeth in hatred.

If it weren't for that damn guy, how could he have ended up in such a situation? Daluo fell to the level of Jinxian, so when would he be able to make up for it?

"I will now give you two choices. One is to re-enter your body," Yuanshi looked at Taiyi, "and the second choice is to use the green lotus seeds originally given to Nezha to create a new lotus root body for you.

This lotus root body's foundation is no worse than your original body, in fact, it is slightly better."

Taiyi thought for a moment, then looked at the body he had fished out of the pigpen...

"Master, I want a lotus root body." Taiyi said firmly.

"Good." Yuanshi waved his hand, and a green lotus seed flew out from Taiyi's clothes.

The Antarctic Immortal on the side seemed to be hesitant to speak.

He wanted to say that this lotus seed had also been in the pigpen.

So, is the lotus root person that grew out of it... then... is it clean?

But seeing Taiyi's expectant look, he finally swallowed his words.

Then Yuanshi sprinkled some Three Lights Divine Water, and the green lotus seeds began to grow rapidly, becoming a human figure made up of several lotus root sections.

There is also a sparkling green glow on these lotus roots.

"Go!" Yuanshi said.

Taiyi's soul was excited for a moment, and then threw itself into the lotus root.

Soon, a flash of inspiration came, and the lotus root turned into a human body.

"Master! I'm alive again... I'm alive again..." Taiyi danced with joy.

"Cough cough..." Yuanshi looked at Taiyi who came back to life and coughed twice. Then a bronze mirror flew out and stood in front of Taiyi.

When Taiyi saw himself in the mirror, he was completely stunned.

"This...this is me?"

At this moment, he turned into a little doll, who definitely looked no more than ten years old. There was a lotus on his head, and his whole body was covered with a lotus-shaped apron.

Seeing himself like this, Taiyi almost vomited blood.

Taiyi Zhenren, one of the Twelve Golden Immortals, has become a lotus boy?
"This lotus root body is transformed from an innate spiritual creature and is a great fortune. Since Li Nezha is unwilling to be the vanguard officer in the attack on Shang, then you should take on this mission!" Yuanshi said.

"Master..." Taiyi thought, he is the second generation of the Chan sect, and he actually has to show up in public and serve as the vanguard officer in the attack on Shang?
But Yuanshi didn't give him this opportunity, saying, "Your cultivation has been destroyed. Only by plunging into the Great Tribulation can you have a glimmer of hope of returning to Daluo or even breaking through to Quasi-Sage. Are you sure you don't want it?"

Taiyi was silent for a moment, then agreed, "Yes!"

At the same time, a strong hatred flashed in his eyes.

During the Conferred God Tribulation, he will never let that damn Ao Bing go!

"Then you can go out!" Yuanshi waved his hand.

"Junior brother, this is for you." The Immortal of the South Pole returned the original body to him. Taiyi thought about it and finally took it.

Even if you fall into the pigpen, your baby is still in this body!

After Taiyi left, Nanji Xianweng hesitated for a moment and said, "Master, the lotus seed is also in the pigpen..."

Finally he decided to tell the truth.

Yuanshi glared at him fiercely, showing that he had no eyesight, and the Immortal of the South Pole immediately stopped talking.

"Where is your junior brother Zi Ya now?" Yuanshi asked.

"We will reach Chaoge in about a month." said the Immortal of the South Pole.

……

At the same time, eight hundred princes arrived in Chaoge City.

Among them, some great princes headed by Dongbo Hou Jiang Huanchu, Nanbo Hou E Chongyu, Xibo Hou Jichang, and Beibo Hou Chonghouhu went to meet King Di Xin of Shang.

Emperor Xin sat at the head of the group and said, "A few days ago, the Right Prime Minister Su Hong submitted a memorial proposing to reform the merchant system, including abolishing slavery and taxation..."

Originally, the princes thought that the King of Shang summoned them to Chaoge to announce something important.

But now, after Emperor Xin finished speaking, they were frightened.

Whether it is slavery or taxation, they are the foundation of the Shang Dynasty!
"Your Majesty, this is absolutely forbidden! How can we lightly change the laws of our ancestors?" Shang Rong could no longer sit still. He knelt on the ground and kowtowed hurriedly: "Your Majesty, please revoke your order!"

"Your Majesty, please revoke your order!"

The ministers also hurriedly followed suit.

Isn’t what Emperor Xin wanted to change their lifeblood?

"These reforms will help our Shang Dynasty become stronger and make the people live better. Why can't they be implemented?" Emperor Xin stood up and said sternly, "I think it's because these systems have undermined your interests.

This reform, I have decided on today!"

"Your Majesty, this is absolutely not allowed." Bigan also knelt down to advise, "Prime Minister Shang is right. The laws of our ancestors cannot be easily changed. This will shake the foundation of the country!"

"Uncle, I have made up my mind about this matter, and no one can stop me! Prime Minister Su and I have already finalized these reforms, and we just have to wait and see the results!" Emperor Xin waved his hand, and this was the explanation he gave.

But this explanation could not calm the restlessness of the ministers and princes.

Emperor Xin did not care much and stood up and left, leaving his ministers looking at each other in confusion. Anyway, I have already issued the decree, so you can say whatever you want!

"The evil woman has brought ruin to the country! The evil woman has brought ruin to the country!" After Emperor Xin left, Shang Rong was extremely sad and angry, with tears streaming down his face.

The other ministers were also discussing the matter.

After the ministers dispersed, within half a day, news of Emperor Xin's actions in the palace spread to the streets, causing an uproar.

"What's wrong with the king? Why would he issue such a decree? Changing taxes? And banning serfdom? Isn't this going to cut off our livelihood?"

"I heard that! These evil rumors were all raised by Su Hong who entered the palace. I think she is a witch who will bring disaster to the country!"

"It's not just her, the others aren't much better! A bunch of goblins serving as officials, and important ones at that. How can this country not be in chaos?"

"This is really unreasonable!"

The people have no idea what is good or bad, they just follow what others say.

What's more, these news were released by those high-ranking officials, who specifically picked out the bad things in order to arouse public anger and make Emperor Xin revoke his order.

The rumor became more and more outrageous.

At this time in Chentang Pass, Li Jing also received a report sent by express horse. When he finished reading it, Li Jing frowned.

"What is your Majesty planning to do? You're actually going to violate our ancestral laws! Taiyi Zhenren once said that Nezha would be the vanguard of the Shang Dynasty. Is the Shang Dynasty really going to fall into chaos?"

But even if Li Jing was worried, it was of no avail.

In addition, the four major princes from the southeast, northwest, northeast and southwest also gathered together.

"Everyone, now that the king wants to change the ancestral system, what do you think?" King Ji Chang of the Western Zhou Dynasty had a kind face and looked benevolent and righteous.

"We are ministers of the Shang Dynasty and respect the king as the highest. If the king wants to change the system, I will listen to him." Dongbo Hou Jiang Huanchu said.

His daughter was Queen Jiang in the harem, so she naturally supported the King of Shang.

The other two princes did not speak or express their opinions.

Seeing this, Ji Chang said, "You should all know that I am somewhat proficient in divination and numerology. I have calculated that the Shang Dynasty may undergo a major change. The fact that Your Majesty wants to reform the system is indicative of this.

Furthermore, the king is likely to take action against us princes, so please be careful."

Strange looks flashed in the eyes of the other three princes, while Ji Chang showed an obscure smile in his eyes.
