Nezha: This is all thanks to Brother Li

Gu Santong scoffed, "I didn't realize this little thing was so good at twisting words. But does Nezha really think he can escape torture this way? What an innocent child."

Leona scoffed, "How dare you show your face like that?"

Gu Santong's smile froze instantly.

Goddess, do you have to have such a good memory?

Well, okay, I couldn't resist joining in the fun.

Gu Santong chuckled shamelessly, "Oh, Goddess, what are you saying? As the saying goes, a day apart feels like three autumns. I just felt that it had been so long since I had seen and admired your unparalleled beauty, so even though I knew there was a bottomless cliff ahead, I still had to go in."

Leona couldn't help but reveal a smug smile.

She glanced sideways at Gu Santong, a look of admiration in her eyes that said, "You have good taste."

Leona coughed lightly and said, "Although I know I am very beautiful, possessing a beauty that could eclipse the sun, your bluntness might make me think you have some ulterior motives regarding my beauty."

Gu Santong bowed and said with a fawning smile, "My goddess, what are you saying? How could I dare to have any ill intentions towards your beauty? I look up to you with the same reverence I feel for the sun, and to the envy and awe I feel for a toad looking up at a swan."

Upon hearing this, everyone finally couldn't help but roll their eyes in unison.

Haven't you two been disgusting enough?

Angel Yan: "Hehe, Gu Santong's flattery skills have improved quite a bit."

Yan Lingji said disdainfully, "Shameful."

Tushan Yaya agreed, "Shameless."

Li Xunhuan smiled without saying a word and shook his head slightly.

Li Xunhuan already knew and was used to Gu Santong's temperament. If Gu Santong suddenly became serious one day, Li Xunhuan would suspect that something was wrong.

Xu Xian smiled but remained silent.

Unlike Li Xunhuan, he was simply there to watch the spectacle.

Just as everyone was laughing and joking, something else happened on Nezha's side.

Although Li Jing felt sorry for his wife and Nezha, he couldn't help but feel that his authority as the head of the family had been violated when he heard Nezha's arrogant words.

It's like a lion whose territory has been invaded; that's absolutely unacceptable.

Li Jing stepped forward, looking down at Nezha only reached his waist, and said with great authority, "Very well, since my son has such ambition, I, as his father, cannot let him down. Madam, please step aside and let me see Zha'er's strength."

Lady Yin quickly stepped in front of Nezha, saying helplessly, "Husband, why are you arguing with a child? Nezha is still young, he's never seen you since birth, it's understandable that he harbors some resentment. Today is a joyous day for our family reunion, what are you two doing?"

Before Lady Yin could finish speaking, Nezha darted out from behind her.

He raised his head and stared directly at Li Jing, showing no fear whatsoever, and proudly declared, "Who says I haven't seen him? I saw him when I was just born!"

Li Jing and the others all looked at Nezha in astonishment.

Taiyi Zhenren frowned deeply and said, "Child, do you still remember what happened when you were born?"

Nezha proudly raised his head, not answering directly, and said, "If you want to know, you have to promise me first."

Taiyi Zhenren leaned close to Li Jing's ear and whispered worriedly, "This is bad. Nezha was possessed by a demon back then, so he shouldn't remember what happened. But judging from this child's appearance, he doesn't seem to be fooling us; he seems to know something."

Li Jing frowned slightly and said, "We'll know once we fight."

Taiyi Zhenren looked utterly astonished.

this?

Beat!

You're really planning to fight this kid?

Nezha, hands on his hips, said proudly, "Let's fight! Who's afraid of who? But just fighting like this isn't very interesting. How about we make a bet?"

Upon hearing this, the others also became interested.

Li Jing asked intently, "What do you want to bet?"

Nezha snorted and said, "I haven't decided yet. I'll talk about it when I do. Enough talk, let's get started."

Upon seeing this, Lady Yin couldn't help but put her hand to her forehead.

Oh dear, how did such a joyous occasion turn into this?

She felt helpless, but seeing that neither Li Jing nor Nezha would budge, she had no choice but to give up.

Lady Yin walked to Li Jing's side and threatened him fiercely, "If you dare to hurt Zha'er, I'll make you regret it."

Li Jing's eye twitched slightly, but he quickly regained his composure.

No matter how monstrous Nezha is, he's still just a child. If he can't even easily deal with a child, he wouldn't deserve to be the garrison commander of Chentang Pass.

Taiyi Zhenren shook his head helplessly and stepped back.

Soon, only Nezha and Li Jing remained in the center of the courtyard.

The two stood several meters apart, silently facing each other.

Li Jing stood with one hand behind his back and the other in front of him. He looked calmly at Nezha and said, "I won't bully you. I'll give you a handicap. If you can last ten moves, you win."

Nezha's eyes lit up immediately, and he exclaimed excitedly, "Really?"

Li Jing said confidently, "Would your father deceive a little child like you?"

Lady Yin covered her face with her hand, her expression one of unbearable disapproval.

My dear husband!

I told you long ago that Nezha is no ordinary child. Although he cannot use the power of demons, he is still a prodigy that is hard to find in the world.

To give him one arm and two legs, this!?

Lady Yin felt a chill run down her spine for Li Jing.

She had watched Nezha grow up day by day and knew his strength better than Nezha. If Li Jing were to fight seriously, Nezha would definitely be no match for him. But if he held back a bit, Lady Yin really didn't think highly of Li Jing.

She could already foresee the outcome of this battle.

Just as she was about to give a reminder, Nezha cheered and took action.

"Haha, you lost."

Nezha laughed loudly, and without making any move, he suddenly split into five, surrounding Li Jing. The five figures seemed both real and illusory, each appearing to be a solid entity, yet also as if each were a phantom.

"Eighteen Dragon-Subduing Palms!"

"One Yang Finger!"

"Six Meridian Divine Sword!"

"Cloud-Pushing Palm!"

Upon seeing this, everyone's pupils constricted.

What kind of tactic is this?

Before they could even understand why they were contemplating suicide, Nezha had already launched a furious and relentless attack.

Countless martial arts moves poured out from his hands, and in just a breath, the courtyard seemed to have fallen into apocalypse.

A golden dragon, hundreds of meters long, roared and charged towards Li Jing. Its terrifying power caused cracks to appear in the houses even before it touched the ground.

A chilling sword aura tore through the void, transforming into a tangible sword beam that captivated the mind.

The boundless palm shadows, like a tsunami crashing down from above, swept towards Li Jing.

Li Jing was slightly startled and could no longer hold back.

He then lightly swiped his right hand through the air, creating a reddish-white circular shield in front of him.

The dragon's roar only left faint ripples on the shield.

The sword's edge tore through the sky, causing the shield to tremble violently.

Countless palm strikes rained down, yet they could not budge the slightest.

Seeing that Nezha's attack had been completely blocked, Li Jing breathed a slight sigh of relief, but was also somewhat puzzled. Where had Nezha learned these things? He himself had never seen them before.

In the instant Li Jing was distracted, Nezha launched his most powerful attack.

Vajra Indestructible Body!

"Ha, take my invincible punch!"

Nezha roared to the sky, his entire body radiating a crimson light, as if he were on fire. The violent power swept through like a gale, causing the trees in the courtyard to rustle. Even Lady Yin and Taiyi Zhenren had to cover their faces with their hands to shield themselves from the onslaught of the gale.

Taiyi Zhenren stared in disbelief and muttered, "My goodness, where did this little thing learn all this nonsense?"

Lady Yin remained silent.

Because she didn't know either.

She looked at Nezha and saw that Nezha long hair was standing tall and turned crimson.

Nezha slightly bent over, then suddenly stomped on the ground, twisting his waist to gather all his strength into his right fist, which seemed to be burning with flames.

"Boom!"

With a deafening roar, a crater several feet deep was left in the ground, and the entire Chentang Pass seemed to tremble. Nezha towards Li Jing like an arrow released from a bow, his speed even exceeding the limits of what Lady Yin's eyes could detect.

Li Jing only saw a flash of crimson light before his eyes, and felt as if he had been hit by a meteor.

Unstoppable!

Unstoppable!

The overwhelming force was like a tsunami. Li Jing only had time to cross his arms in front of him before he was violently knocked away by the terrifying force.

His feet scraped across the ground, leaving a long, winding drag mark half a foot deep. His clothes were torn, and clear fist marks were visible on his arms.

"Bang."

Li Jing flew dozens of meters away, crashing heavily into the wall before finally coming to a stop.

In an instant, cracks appeared all over the courtyard wall centered on Li Jing, and it looked like it was about to collapse.

Taiyi Zhenren covered his eyes with both hands, shaking his head involuntarily. "My goodness, this little monster is too strong. But even his own father could be so cruel. If I take him as my disciple, I'm afraid I'll be killed in the future, won't I?"

Lady Yin's expression changed slightly, and she hurriedly ran forward. "Husband, how are you?"

Li Jing struggled to climb down the wall, his face flushed with an unnatural redness.

He waved his hand slightly, signaling Lady Yin to remain silent.

Li Jing stared intently at Nezha and said in a deep voice, "Who taught you this martial art?"

Nezha raised his head and said, "I'm a genius, self-taught."

Li Jing coldly snorted, "If you don't speak, you're never to leave the courtyard again."

Nezha pouted, displeased, and said, "You make it sound like I've never left the courtyard."

Li Jing was speechless.

But upon closer reflection, I realized that before I left, I had instructed that Nezha be kept in the courtyard to prevent him from going out and causing trouble.

Lady Yin said anxiously, "My child, your father is only doing this for your own good. Cultivation is not a simple matter; a slight mistake can lead to problems. Your father is worried about your safety, you silly little thing."

Nezha's complexion improved slightly, and he pouted, saying, "These are all secret manuals that Brother Li gave me."

Brother Li, the secret manual!?

Li Jing and the other two looked at each other in bewilderment.

Who is this Brother Li?

At the same time, they were secretly alarmed. This person was able to sneak into the Li residence without a sound and deliberately contact Nezha. Could he be plotting something?
