Chapter 230 - 229: Hao Tian: Playing the Victim, I’m a Professional!

Chapter 230: Chapter 229: Hao Tian: Playing the Victim, I’m a Professional!

Yin Shou actually doesn’t ask for much. He now just wants to protect his last son Zigeng and the Queen.

From his perspective, the direction of East Lu is already a sea of blood. Although he doesn’t know what this change signifies, he estimates that his two sons probably won’t have a good ending.

But what does this have to do with him?

Afterwards, he no longer cares about the chaos in Chaoge City and quietly awaits his destined ruin.

...

Busy in Nantang, Nezha isn’t aware of what’s happening with Yin Shou, even if he knew, he would feel helpless since he cannot possibly defy the Heavenly Dao for Yin Shou. His initial quest was to punish Yin Shou for the disrespect towards his teacher.

Having avenged his teacher’s dignity, he actually bears no deep-seated hatred towards Yin Shou.

Nezha has spent a lot of spiritual materials setting up arrays everywhere, but to watch the people of Nantang being scorched alive is something he would never allow.

During this period, he also went to the Heavenly Court to learn the cause of the matter. However, upon arrival, he found it almost deserted. His Thunder Department had been summoned by Hao Tian. If not for the Turquoise Pool still being present, he would have thought the Heavenly Court had disbanded.

At the Turquoise Pool with Queen Mother Yaochi, Nezha learned the cause of the matter.

Of course, the reason for the riots was attributed to Hao Tian’s long-term suppression, and it had nothing to do with Nezha.

Could Nezha, a mere Heavenly Immortal, cause such a grand scenario?

Impossible, absolutely impossible!

Even Hao Tian thought so.

Nezha was speechless when he heard that it was Hao Tian who had caused the mess again.

This Emperor position has you doing nothing right, leading in messing things up; why don’t you just step down already.

With Long Ji by the Heavenly River ’walking along the avenue’.

The Great Sun’s call to Nezha grows increasingly forceful, and if you insist on saying so, it feels like it’s calling him home.

Nezha resists the urge to rush in. Now is not the time for him to take action, from any perspective.

Looking again at the Taiyin Star, Heng E is still suppressing it.

However, when Nezha looked over, the always-eyes-closed Dharma Form of the goddess abruptly opened her eyes and glanced at Nezha, then blinked.

Bian Zhuang, somewhere in the Heavenly River, suddenly shivered: She looked at me, she blinked at me, she has feelings for me!

Nezha is unaware of the peculiar misunderstanding this incites.

Long Ji, shaking Nezha’s arm, pointed at Heng E’s Dharma Form and asked: "Look, Nezha, that’s the number one beauty in the Three Realms, Sister Heng E. Is she prettier than me?"

Nezha nodded slightly: "Prettier than you."

Long Ji uttered an "oh", feeling a bit displeased, yet knowing she shouldn’t be.

"But I like you."

Nezha’s actions always cut straight to the point!

Such straightforwardness, in today’s age where subtlety and speaking in half-truths are the norm, still carries significant impact, especially on a love-struck little fairy like Long Ji.

Long Ji’s drooped head instantly perked up like a flower blooming.

The smile on her lips couldn’t be suppressed, no matter what,

"Oh dear, Nezha, you’re so cheesy with your words~ Next time don’t say such things~"

Nezha chuckled.

"As you wish, I won’t say it next time."

The smile on Long Ji’s face vanished as she watched Nezha struggle to hold back laughter, playfully punching him twice.

"You’re just teasing me."

After saying that, she continued to stick by Nezha’s side.

Nezha thought, you’re too easy to appease, if in my past life I had met someone like you, I wouldn’t have been urged to marry every day at nearly thirty.

After chatting a bit with Long Ji, he returned to his teacher’s Nuwa Palace.

This matter requires consideration; he felt it best to seek his teacher’s advice on how to handle it.

...

The Sun Star’s daily energy release is increasing, causing the temperature of the entire Primordial Land to rise.

The rain from the Four Sea Dragon Kings, who are fulfilling their cloud-shaping and rain-casting duties, has been evaporating before it hits the ground.

They clock in for work on schedule, whether the rain hits the ground or not isn’t their concern. Regardless of the amount, drought or flood doesn’t matter to them.

This has only worsened the situation in the Primordial Land, with only the Demon Clan in North State faring somewhat better, with some radical factions even beginning to shout for rebellion against Heaven and revival of the demons.

And Hao Tian?

At this moment, he is still leading the immortals guarding the gate at Kunlun Mountain!

A year swiftly passes by.

The Sun Star in the sky now has grown several times larger.

In this year’s time, Yuanshi Tianzun hasn’t paid any attention to Hao Tian, and Hao Tian is also no longer guarding the door at Kunlun Mountain.

Instead, he’s gone to guard the door at Golden Turtle Island!

The Tongtian Sect Master is even more straightforward than Yuanshi Tianzun. Yuanshi Tianzun only claimed to be in seclusion not seeing anyone, but here he bluntly tells him to get lost.

Disciples under Yuanshi Tianzun are indeed of higher quality, well-mannered.

At Golden Turtle Island, it’s a different story, full of demons and spirits of all kinds, the quality is imaginable.

A bunch of Jie Sect Immortals don’t acknowledge any Emperor Hao Tian, they only recognize Saint Tongtian.

Dare you block the gate of Golden Turtle Island?

Brazen!

Initially, they used cold words and sneers.

Seeing the Heavenly Court Immortals unmoved, they directly came forward to hurl insults.

Finally, passing immortals would spit twice before leaving.

The Heavenly Court Immortals’ faces twisted with anger, but they couldn’t retaliate.

Because Hao Tian forbade it.

The reason for Hao Tian’s actions is quite bizarre; simply put, it’s to gather sympathy.

But to whom?

Those who understand, understand.

He believes that being the Heavenly Emperor, for the sake of the Primordial Land, he’s lowered himself at others’ gates, being insulted, hasn’t he paid enough?

I’ve contributed so much, shouldn’t my elder help me now?

Strange but understandable, considering he was once just Daoist Ancestor Hong Jun’s servant boy.

Like a wealthy second generation running away from home, living on just fifty thousand a month, in a mere hundred square meters apartment, you’d think I’m so pitiful, why hasn’t my family come begging me to return home?

Roughly that’s the idea.

But he simply doesn’t understand that the Daoist Ancestor wants someone who can solve problems during catastrophes in the Primordial Land, not someone who only knows to whine and seek help.

If you need me for everything, what do I need a Heavenly Emperor like you for?

He also doesn’t realize how bad the impression is of him among the immortals serving him.

Actually, even if Hao Tian knew, he wouldn’t care. There are always extras, if you don’t do the job, others will, he only cares about what the higher-up thinks of him.

Hao Tian leads the immortals in a pitiful act of selling misery.

The Heaven and Earth Six Saints are basically all watching Hao Tian’s spectacle.

You wish to be equal with us?

The Lord of Three Realms?

Still aspire to become a Saint above the Six Saints?

A few drinks and you’re like this?

Out of respect for the Daoist Ancestor, we address you as junior brother, but weren’t you still just a gatekeeper!

As the Sun Star’s destruction of the Primordial Land becomes increasingly severe, finally, someone can’t sit still.

This person isn’t one of the Six Saints, nor is it Hao Tian, but rather Daoist Ancestor Hong Jun.

After all, strictly speaking, the Primordial could also be called Daoist Ancestor’s Primordial.

He gave Hao Tian a chance, but the outcome was disappointing. As the situation escalates further, Heng E is nearly unable to suppress the Taiyin Star.

If both stars erupt, would old me have to intervene personally?
