Nezha's Backstab

At that moment, Nezha appeared behind Taiyi Zhenren. Upon hearing this, he quickly said, "Yang Jian is simple-minded and brave."

Upon hearing this, Taiyi Zhenren chuckled twice. "Indeed, judging from his appearance, he is quite naive and brave. But even this Yu Ding hasn't been taught properly, tsk tsk."

Taiyi Zhenren chuckled and shook his head, then suddenly felt a sharp pain in his chest and instinctively looked down to check.

The Fire-Tipped Spear was seen piercing through his chest.

"You..."

In the distance, on the battlefield, Yu Ding Zhenren originally thought that with his Taiyi cultivation, dealing with Yang Jian would be a piece of cake.

But unexpectedly, Yang Jian broke through his cultivation level repeatedly during the battle, in addition to the divine eye between his eyebrows.

Not only was Yu Ding Zhenren unable to defeat Yang Jian, but he himself was also severely beaten by Yang Jian.

Seeing that he couldn't defeat Yang Jian, Yu Ding Zhenren quickly turned around and prepared to call Nezha and Taiyi Zhenren for help.

But as soon as he glanced to the side, he saw Nezha wielding the Fire-Tipped Spear, stabbing Taiyi Zhenren in the back. He immediately roared in fury, "Nezha!"

"What's wrong?"

Nezha glanced at the furious Yu Ding Zhenren in the distance, then nonchalantly withdrew his Fire-Tipped Spear. The Taiyi Zhenren, who had been pierced through the chest, collapsed to the ground, unable to get up.

"You wretched creature, how dare you betray the Ancestral Master?"

Yu Ding Zhenren was completely shocked. If it was Yang Jian who made a move, there would be some clues, but why did Nezha suddenly make a move?

"Betraying the ancestral temple master?"

Upon hearing this, Nezha immediately laughed. He shook the blood off his Fire-Tipped Spear and charged towards the battlefield.

"I, Lingzhuzi, am a spirit pearl served before the Empress Nuwa. If it weren't for the arrangement of Lord Fuxi, would you two descendants dare to claim me as your ancestor? Do you even deserve it?"

Yang Jian was also taken aback by the sudden turn of events, but when he saw Nezha coming to help, he instinctively joined forces with Nezha.

Upon hearing this, Yu Ding Zhenren understood perfectly well that Nezha had apparently suffered from amnesia.

"Excellent, excellent, truly a brilliant plan!"

He already had a hard time dealing with Yang Jian alone, and now with Nezha added to the Nezha, he was no match for him at all.

Therefore, Yu Ding Zhenren did not hesitate for long. He flew to Taiyi Zhenren's side, grabbed Taiyi Zhenren, and ran away.

Yang Jian wanted to give chase, but Nezha stopped him.

"Alright, these Yu Ding Zhenren and Taiyi Zhenren are the personal disciples of that Sage, and one of the Twelve Golden Immortals of Chan Sect."

"That Sage is known for his shamelessness and protectiveness of his own. If we really try to keep them, we'll probably face his personal intervention."

"But if they leave, then my mother..." Yang Jian already knew that Nezha's identity was the spirit pearl serving Nuwa Holy Mother Nuwa, so he naturally knew that Nezha's words were true, but thinking of his mother, he was still prepared to take the risk.

"It's nothing. Accompany me to the Fuxi Temple. Once we've met with Lord Fuxi, this matter will be resolved."

"With the approval of Lord Fuxi, even the Heavenly Court wouldn't dare utter a single word."

After saying this, Nezha led Yang Jian straight towards the Fuxi Temple. At this moment, he was Pure Qi, finally free from the charade.

Meanwhile, Taiyi Zhenren and Yu Ding Zhenren fled back to the Heavenly Court in a panic.

At that moment, the Four Saints were all in the Lingxiao Treasure Hall in the Heavenly Court.

They were discussing how to deal with the situation when they suddenly saw Yu Ding Zhenren returning with the dying Taiyi Zhenren, and they were both taken aback.

The Primordial Heavenly Venerable's brow twitched; he felt he was about to lose face again.

Yu Ding Zhenren entered the Lingxiao Treasure Hall, he saw his master in front of and behind the palace. He immediately knelt down and began to cry.

"Master, we have all been deceived by that Lingzhuzi!"

"We were tricked by the Lingzhuzi?"

The Four Saints exchanged bewildered glances upon hearing this.

Lingzhuzi is Nezha, but Nezha currently a newly reincarnated child. How can he deceive Taiyi Zhenren and Yu Ding Zhenren?

"Get up and tell me the story in detail," said the Primordial Heavenly Venerable, calming his complicated emotions.

"Yes." Yu Ding Zhenren quickly stood up, but his tone was still sorrowful as he said, "That Lingzhuzi didn't lose his memory at all. He was just pretending from beginning to end. I'm afraid his goal has always been Yang Jian."

"My disciple and Yang Jian were discussing his rebellion against the Human Race when Yang Jian hesitated, and then attacked my disciple."

"My disciple was still in shock when he turned around and saw that Lingzhuzi had pierced through Junior Brother Taiyi's chest with his Fire-Tipped Spear."

So right now...

"..." After hearing Yu Ding Zhenren's words, everyone fell silent.

Laozi, Jieyin, Zhunti, and Haotian slowly turned their gazes toward the Primordial Heavenly Venerable.

If they remember correctly, the task of causing Lingzhuzi to lose her memory was probably taken over by the Primordial Heavenly Venerable.

At this moment, the Primordial Heavenly Venerable's face was ashen, and he was stiff to an extreme degree.

He originally thought he would lose face again because of his disciple, but he never expected that he would be the one who would truly lose face in the end.

Jieyin, Zhunti, Haotian, and the others standing to the side were not prepared to let Primordial Heavenly Venerable off so easily.

In the past, the Primordial Heavenly Venerable had offended them quite a few times. If he didn't take advantage of their misfortune now, when would he?

"If Lingzhuzi truly didn't experience the mystery of her birth and lose her memory, then everything makes sense," Jieyin suddenly said.

"Yes, that Lingzhuzi is Nuwa's personal spirit pearl, and it must be extremely loyal to both Fuxi and Nuwa."

The failure of Taiyi's two plans must have been because Lingzhuzi informed Fuxi in advance, and then Fuxi made his own calculations.

At this Zhunti, Zhunti suddenly looked at Primordial Heavenly Venerable and said insincerely, "It seems I misunderstood my nephew Taiyi. I originally thought that my nephew Taiyi was not very skilled with the Deification techniques, which is why he repeatedly revealed his true form at crucial moments."

"But if Fuxi were to act secretly, that would be normal."

"After all, given Fuxi's abilities, even we might fail."

Zhunti's words were almost like pointing a finger at the Primordial Heavenly Venerable and scolding him for being inferior in skill, implying that like master, like disciple.

After all, it was the Primordial Heavenly Venerable who drew the talisman and used it to try and make Lingzhuzi lose his memory.

But now the talisman has failed, yet the Primordial Heavenly Venerable has never noticed. As the Primordial Heavenly Venerable's disciple, it seems normal for Taiyi Zhenren's Divine Ability to fail.

"Yuanshi, did you really send that talisman back then?"

Although Laozi was somewhat resentful, he still spoke up to defend the Primordial Heavenly Venerable, after all, as brothers, their fates were intertwined.

"I had Taiyi deliver that talisman to Lady Li Jing," said the Primordial Heavenly Venerable in a cold tone, but as Laozi spoke, his gaze also turned to Taiyi Zhenren.

Yes, he didn't use the talisman himself; he had Taiyi Zhenren do it.

Given Taiyi Zhenren's reckless personality, could it be that he already made a mistake with that talisman back then?
