After transmigrating into the body of the Jade Rat Spirit, I became Nezha's adopted sister.

Besides Li Jing, Nezha also had a few people he could talk to.

For example, Erlang Shen Yang Jian would occasionally come, and the two would either drink or spar, creating a relatively harmonious atmosphere.

Sun Wukong also came twice, and each time he caused chaos in Yunlou Palace. He and Nezha mocked and sabotaged each other, and in the end, they usually ended up fighting and "sparring". The battle made the sea of ​​clouds churn, which made Bai Yeying tremble with fear and secretly marvel.

Her identity as a minor fairy maid did not attract much attention in the Heavenly Court.

Most immortals simply considered her a somewhat special little demon servant whom Nezha had taken from somewhere.

Some people looked at her with curiosity, but Bai Yeying always kept her head down and was careful with her words and actions.

On this day, Nezha was summoned by the Jade Emperor to discuss matters.

After finishing her assigned tasks, Bai Yeying saw that it was still early, so she strolled over to the lotus viewing platform in the back garden of Yunlou Palace.

She was engrossed in watching when she suddenly heard a male voice behind her: "So, you're the Miss Bai, the one Nezha brought back?"

Bai Yeying was startled. When she turned around, she saw a Taoist priest dressed in a moon-white robe and wearing a fish-tail crown standing not far away, holding a whisk and smiling at her.

He possessed an extraordinary and refined demeanor, with gentle yet profound eyes that instantly won people's favor.

"You are..." Bai Yeying quickly bowed, guessing the identity of the person who came.

The ability to appear silently in the back garden of Yunlou Palace indicates that they are no ordinary immortals.

"I am Taiyi, a Taoist priest, and I cultivate in the Golden Light Cave," the Taoist priest said with a smile.

Taiyi Zhenren! Nezha's master! Bai Yeying's heart trembled, and she became even more respectful: "Junior Bai Yeying pays respects to Immortal Taiyi!"

"No need for such formalities."

Taiyi Zhenren offered a slight helping hand, his gaze lingering on her for a moment as if observing something, before nodding: "Your physical constitution is decent, and your mind is still clear. That child Nezha, with his impatient and irritable nature, has certainly given you a hard time these past few days, hasn't he?"

"No, no! Although the Third Prince is a bit strict, it's all for my own good."

Bai Yeying quickly spoke up for Nezha, and this was the truth. Although Nezha's training methods were extremely difficult, her cultivation and control over power had indeed made great progress in a short period of time.

Master Taiyi stroked his beard and smiled: "You are quite sensible. It is already commendable that he kept you by his side and let you do some practical things, instead of simply imprisoning and punishing you."

He paused, then said meaningfully, "Although the laws of Heaven are strict, they are not entirely unreasonable. Since you have the opportunity to be here, cherish it. Diligently cultivate good deeds and temper your character, and the day will surely come when the clouds part and the sun shines through."

These words were like a gentle spring breeze, greatly alleviating Bai Yeying's unease of the past few days.

She said solemnly, "Thank you for your guidance, Immortal Master. I will keep it in mind."

Taiyi Zhenren nodded, said no more, and disappeared into the distance.

Bai Yeying stood there, pondering Taiyi Zhenren's words, and her heart gradually calmed down.

Some time later, Nezha returned from outside, seemingly in a good mood, carrying a jar of wine in his hand.

He saw Bai Yeying wiping the weapon rack and casually said, "Pack your things, you'll come with me to the lower realm tomorrow."

"The lower realm?" Bai Yeying's eyes lit up. She had been in the Heavenly Court for so long, but she had never been down there before.

"There's a place called Fengya Mountain to the north. Lately, demonic energy has been gathering there, and it seems some restless spirits are disturbing the mountain gods and local deities. I'm going to take a look. You come along, learn something, and also check if you've been eating peaches for nothing these past few days."

Bai Yeying was both nervous and excited. This was her first business trip, and she was going with Nezha to subdue demons!

She quickly nodded, "Yes! I will definitely do my best and not let you down!"

.................

The next day, Nezha was still dressed in red clothes and silver armor, riding on his Wind Fire Wheels.

Bai Yeying also changed into a dress that was easy to move in, and her hair was neatly tied up.

Nezha glanced at her, said nothing, and simply gestured for her to follow.

The two left the South Heavenly Gate and flew straight towards the north of the lower realm.

This was the first time Bai Yeying had ever looked down upon the earth from the perspective of an immortal. She saw magnificent mountains and rivers, and cities and towns arranged like chess pieces. It was a different feeling from looking out from the Cloud Viewing Platform in the sky, and her heart was filled with excitement.

Soon, we arrived at Fengya Mountain.

The mountain god and the earth god were already waiting there. When they saw Nezha, it was as if they had seen a savior. They rushed forward to tell him their grievances.

It is said that a monster who has cultivated for thousands of years has appeared in the mountains at some unknown time. It has not only occupied the cave and driven away the mountain spirits, but also often comes down the mountain to harass the villages and demand blood offerings. Their magic power is weak and they are really unable to resist it.

After listening, Nezha simply nodded and said to Bai Yeying, "You stay here and work with the mountain god and the local earth god to set up a barrier to prevent the little demons from escaping, and also to protect them."

This means she's not allowed to participate directly in the battle.

Bai Yeying was somewhat disappointed, but she didn't dare to disobey and obediently agreed.

She followed the mountain god and the local earth god, and together they used the surrounding terrain and spiritual stones to set up a demon-trapping formation.

Just as everything was set up, a deafening roar came from the mountains, followed by the booming sound of magical artifacts colliding and the cracking of trees breaking.

It's clear that Nezha has already engaged in combat with the monster.

Bai Yeying looked nervously toward the source of the sound, only to see a demonic aura soaring into the sky halfway up the mountain, with red light and black energy entangled and colliding, creating a terrifying spectacle.

She clenched her fists, wishing she could have that kind of strength.

The battle didn't last long. After about the time it takes to brew a cup of tea, a blazing red light shot into the sky, followed by a piercing scream that abruptly ceased. The demonic energy quickly dissipated.

Before long, Nezha emerged from the forest, his red robes still dazzling and spotless, with a wisp of smoke rising from the tip of his Fire-Tipped Spear.

Behind him, several terrified little demons were tied together with the Hun Tian Ling (a magical ribbon), trembling as they followed.

"It's resolved." Nezha said calmly as he walked to the array set up by Bai Yeying, glanced at it, and commented, "The array's core is set up reasonably well, but the spiritual energy guidance is a bit rough, and it can't trap anything slightly stronger."

Bai Yeying immediately replied, "Yes, I'll improve next time."

The mountain god and the local earth god were extremely grateful, but Nezha simply waved his hand, indicating that they should properly appease the creatures in the mountains and cleanse the demonic atmosphere.

He then took Bai Yeying and the string of little demons back to the Heavenly Court, handing the little demons over to the Hall of Deacons for punishment according to the law.

On the way back to Yunlou Palace, Nezha suddenly spoke up: "You did quite well today. You didn't run around or cause any trouble."

Bai Yeying was surprised to receive praise, paused for a moment, and then smiled.

"However," Nezha changed the subject, glancing at her with his phoenix eyes, "knowing how to set up formations isn't enough. Starting tomorrow, you'll practice spear techniques for two extra hours every day. I'll teach you."

Bai Yeying suddenly looked up, staring at him in disbelief. Nezha was going to personally teach her marksmanship?

"What are you looking at? Don't you want to learn?" Nezha raised an eyebrow.

"I want to think about it! Of course I want to!" Bai Yeying nodded hurriedly, her eyes shining as if they were filled with stars.

Nezha seemed to be burned by her gaze and awkwardly looked away: "Then learn properly. Not just anyone can learn to use my gun."

"Yes! This disciple will definitely study hard!" Bai Yeying replied excitedly, feeling that the road ahead suddenly seemed much brighter and wider.

Ever since Nezha agreed to teach Bai Yeying spear techniques, the martial arts training ground in the back garden of Yunlou Palace has become lively.

At dawn, as the first rays of sunlight appeared, Bai Yeying was already waiting at the training ground with her short gun in hand.

Nezha arrived through the morning mist, dressed in a red outfit with his long hair simply tied up.

"You're here early." He glanced at her, walked to the weapon rack, picked out a wooden spear, and said, "Practice the basics first. Watch carefully."
