Journey to the West Arrives: Start by becoming an apprentice of the Tongtian Sect Leader!

At this moment, Li Jing felt as if a strange background music was playing on a loop in his mind.

Pear blossoms drift down to your window.

Li Jing was, after all, a Taiyi Golden Immortal, a celestial being from the Heavenly Court. Although he had just been stabbed several times by Nezha, he still managed to struggle to his feet.

"Your Majesty! I have been wronged..."

Before Li Jing could finish speaking, the God of Wealth, Zhao Gongming, appeared beside him and slapped him hard on the back of the head.

Snapped! ! !

Li Jing felt dizzy and disoriented after being slapped.

Then he heard the God of Wealth, Zhao Gongming, speaking beside him.

"Oh dear~~"

"King Li, why are you bleeding so much?"

"Such a large amount of bleeding, it's clearly a serious injury!"

"Don't say anything more now, recovering is the most important thing! What if there are any long-term effects?"

"You are the Heavenly King of our Heavenly Court, you can't be harmed!"

Li Jing coughed up another mouthful of blood, his eyes burning with fury as he glared at the God of Wealth, Zhao Gongming.

"Zhao Gongming! You..."

Snapped! ! !

The God of Wealth, Zhao Gongming, slapped Li Jing hard on the back of the head again.

"King Li, I know you want to thank me for caring about you, but there's no need!"

"We're all officials in the Heavenly Court, so why are you talking about thanks?"

"Stop talking! Stop talking!"

"Seeing you bleeding like this breaks my heart!"

Li Jing gritted his teeth and shook his head.

"Zhao Gongming! Holy crap..."

Snapped! ! !

The God of Wealth, Zhao Gongming, seemed very surprised and hurriedly spoke.

"What?! King Li, you want to acknowledge me as your father?!"

"No, no! This won't do!"

"Who in the entire primordial world doesn't know your name, Li Tianwang, the traitor who has served three masters?"

"For your sake, I really can't be your father!"

"Otherwise, wouldn't you become a slave to four masters?"

"I'm doing this all for your own good~"

This time, Li Jing learned his lesson. Although he was furious and wished Zhao Gongming would die immediately, he knew that the situation was beyond his control and he would be beaten if he spoke again.

Moreover, not knowing what shocking things Zhao Gongming might say, Li Jing simply kept quiet...

But while Li Jing remained silent, Li Xuancang spoke up.

"Your Majesty, I have something to report."

The Jade Emperor originally thought that his nephew was already quite capable of causing trouble.

To be honest, the Jade Emperor never expected that he would also punish Li Jing and the others by deducting their salaries for thirty years.

Who would have thought that Li Xuancang's words would turn the matter into a two-way street...

Could it be that my nephew has some wicked idea again?

As expected of my senior brother Tongtian's personal disciple, he's really full of wicked schemes!

Although he thought this in his heart, the Jade Emperor did not show it on his face.

"Oh? What does Marshal Li wish to report?"

Li Xuancang immediately spoke up.

"Your Majesty, mistakes should be punished, and merits should naturally be rewarded!"

"Nezha descended to the mortal realm twice to subdue demons..."

"Although the first defeat of Heaven was due to the incompetence of Li Jing, the Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King, Nezha's battle against the Bull Demon King also demonstrated the majesty of Heaven!"

"The second time, Nezha followed me down to the mortal realm and subdued a group of demon kings."

"This is a meritorious deed and must be rewarded!"

"Therefore, in my opinion, it would be better to reward Nezha with a hundred years' worth of salary to appease this meritorious official."

This time, the Jade Emperor couldn't hold back any longer and burst out laughing...

The disciples of the Jie Sect never expected their senior brother to be so ruthless. He had just punished Nezha by deducting three years' salary, but then turned around and gave Nezha a hundred years' salary in return.

Venus, on the other hand, was also barely suppressing a laugh, thinking to herself, "Marshal Li is truly a fascinating person."

Even Nezha, who was standing to the side, looked at Li Xuancang with some confusion.

Holy crap!!!

Did I really deserve such a great deal?!

Uncle-Master, if you hadn't told me, I really wouldn't have known I was this awesome!

The Jade Emperor couldn't help but burst out laughing, but quickly stopped himself and put on an extremely dignified expression.

"Pfft... Ha... Hmm..."

"Marshal Li is right..."

"Those who have rendered meritorious service cannot be overlooked. Nezha has twice descended to the mortal realm to subdue demons and has made outstanding contributions, so he shall be rewarded with a hundred years' worth of salary!"

So all the celestial officials bowed once more.

"Your Majesty is wise!!!"

Nezha also hurriedly cupped his hands in greeting.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!!!"

The Jade Emperor stroked his beard...

"Alright, since that's the case, let's conclude this matter here. Do any of you ministers have anything else to report?"

The Heavenly Court has many departments, and there are indeed some deities who need to report other matters, so the Jade Emperor began to handle them one by one.

Li Jing wanted to speak, but dared not open his mouth.

Because as soon as Li Jing opens his mouth, even without making a sound, Zhao Gongming, the God of Wealth beside him, will shove a handful of dirt on his head!

At this moment, Sun Wukong moved closer to Nezha.

"Hehe...kid, I didn't expect you to be such a good fighter!"

Upon hearing this, Nezha looked at Sun Wukong with a half-smile.

"Monkey, what did you just call me? Did you call me a child?!"

Sun Wukong nodded.

"Yeah, you look like a child. If you're not a child, then who is?!"

Seeing Sun Wukong's adorable and silly appearance, Nezha burst into laughter...

"Hahaha... Monkey, how old are you this year?"

Sun Wukong felt quite proud when Nezha asked about his age.

"I, Old Sun, have lived for hundreds of years!"

Nezha spoke again with a smile.

"Several hundred years... Hahaha... Do you know how long I've lived?"

Sun Wukong answered Nezha's question very seriously.

"You look no older than twenty..."

Sun Wukong's words almost made Nezha burst out laughing.

"Pfft... Monkey, if you said I'm under twenty, I wouldn't argue with you, but you said I'm under twenty... Hahaha... Stop messing around!"

Sun Wukong was also a monkey who had cultivated himself, so he naturally knew that one Yuanhui was 129,600 years.

For a moment, Sun Wukong felt incredibly embarrassed...

no?!

Is this child really that old?!

Just then, Li Jing suddenly realized something was wrong…

Because Li Jing had just instinctively reached out to lift the pagoda.

But suddenly he realized that his hands were empty!

What the hell!

Where is my pagoda?!

The pagoda is gone! How am I supposed to go out now?!

Do you even understand what it means to live as long as the tower stands?!

Do you even know what it means for a tower to collapse and for people to perish?!

Without that pagoda... that wicked Nezha would have stabbed me three times a day!

It can only be said that the Linglong Pagoda was indeed important to Li Jing, even more so than his wife.

If Li Jing were a man, then the Linglong Pagoda would be his wife.

If Li Jing were a woman, then the Linglong Pagoda would be her husband!

That's pretty much the relationship between the two.

So Li Jing hurriedly began searching everywhere...

Where is my husband...?

Pshaw! Where's my tower?

Wait a minute... where's my tower?

Where is my pagoda?!

Wait a minute... wait a minute...

Where is my tower?!
