Taiyi True Person Arrives at Chentang Pass, Taiyi True Person's Rage and Shock!

Yin Shiniang's room.

Li Jing heard Di Xiao say that he had his own way.

Li Jing then said, "All right, you may all withdraw."

"Yes, Commander!"

At this moment, only Di Xiao, Li Jing, Yin Shiniang, and the newborn child remained in the room.

Di Xiao said, "Don't be afraid, child. Come here to me."

At this, the child walked straight up to Di Xiao.

Di Xiao reached out and stroked the child's head. Powerful mana instantly invaded the child's mind.

Using his powerful mana, Di Xiao directly erased the child's original memories.

Still not entirely reassured, Di Xiao added another seal within the child's mind.

As Di Xiao stroked his head, the child revealed a smile.

Di Xiao said, "Li Jing, look how well-behaved this child is."

"Li Jing, this child does not yet have a name. Quickly give him one."

Li Jing said, "Brother Huang, you should name the child."

Di Xiao pretended to ponder for a moment before saying, "This child will one day shake the battlefield!"

"How about calling you Nezha?"

Li Jing murmured, "Nezha, Nezha... good, then Nezha it shall be!"

Di Xiao then looked at the child and said, "From today onward, your name is Nezha."

Nezha nodded happily.

Just then, the steward of the Commander's Residence hurried before Li Jing and said, "Commander, an elderly man with white hair and beard, carrying the immortal bearing of one beyond the mortal world, seeks an audience outside the residence."

Li Jing asked in surprise, "What? Did the visitor announce his name?"

The steward respectfully replied, "He calls himself Taiyi True Person."

Li Jing asked doubtfully, "Taiyi True Person?"

The steward respectfully answered, "Yes, Commander!"

At that moment, Li Jing turned his gaze toward Di Xiao.

Di Xiao transmitted his voice to Li Jing, "Taiyi True Person is one of the Twelve Golden Immortals of the Elucidation Sect, under Yuanshi Tianzun of Jade Void Palace on Kunlun Mountain!"

Upon hearing that he was Yuanshi Tianzun's disciple, Li Jing replied through voice transmission, "Your Majesty, should this humble subject have the steward send Taiyi True Person away?"

Di Xiao transmitted his voice, "No need."

Li Jing then said, "Steward, go and lead Taiyi True Person into the residence."

The steward respectfully replied, "Yes."

With that, the steward hurried away.

At the entrance to the Commander's Residence of Chentang Pass.

Taiyi True Person stood smiling as he looked at the Commander's Residence of Chentang Pass.

Just then, the steward of the Commander's Residence of Chentang Pass hurried over to Taiyi True Person.

The steward said, "Daoist, my commander invites you in."

Taiyi True Person nodded. "Thank you for your trouble."

With that, Taiyi True Person followed the steward directly into the Commander's Residence of Chentang Pass.

The reception hall of the Commander's Residence of Chentang Pass.

At this moment, only Di Xiao and Li Jing were in the reception hall of the Commander's Residence of Chentang Pass.

The steward led Taiyi True Person into the reception hall of the Commander's Residence.

The instant Taiyi True Person saw Di Xiao, his heart gave a violent jolt.

Taiyi True Person thought to himself, Could someone have beaten me to the prize?

Taiyi True Person then cupped his hands toward Li Jing and said, "Commander Li, I am Taiyi True Person, disciple under Yuanshi Tianzun of Jade Void Palace on Kunlun Mountain!"

Li Jing hurriedly returned the salute with cupped hands. "Li Jing welcomes Taiyi True Person's arrival."

Taiyi True Person then turned his gaze toward Di Xiao.

Taiyi True Person asked, "Commander Li, may I ask who this fellow Daoist is?"

Li Jing hurriedly said, "True Person, this is the child's maternal uncle, Brother Huang."

Taiyi True Person's expression remained unchanged as he looked at Di Xiao. "May I ask where Fellow Daoist Huang learned his craft? Of which school and sect are you?"

Di Xiao said, "Taiyi True Person, are you always so direct in asking others which school and sect they belong to?"

At this, Taiyi True Person cupped his hands and said, "I am Taiyi True Person, one of the Twelve Golden Immortals under Yuanshi Tianzun of Jade Void Palace on Kunlun Mountain."

"May I ask, Fellow Daoist Huang, which school or sect you hail from?"

Di Xiao said, "Taiyi True Person, are we that familiar? Why should I tell you?"

Hearing this, Taiyi True Person flew into a rage. "You truly have no manners at all."

"I spoke to you kindly, yet you mock and sneer at me?"

Di Xiao said, "Taiyi True Person, don't make yourself sound so lofty and grand."

"Is this what you call speaking kindly with me? You clearly want to probe my background!"

Taiyi True Person said coldly, "Hmph. If you are unwilling to say, I fear you must come from some obscure little sect with no name to speak of."

Seeing Di Xiao and Taiyi True Person arguing, Li Jing sensed that they might break into a battle at the slightest disagreement.

Li Jing hurriedly said, "Gentlemen, please calm your anger first. All who come are guests!"

At this, Taiyi True Person said, "I will not lower myself to your level."

Then, Taiyi True Person turned to Li Jing with a smile.

Taiyi True Person said, "Commander Li, bring out your newborn child and let me have a look."

Li Jing said, "Very well. Please wait a moment, True Person."

After saying that, Li Jing called out, "Someone!"

At that moment, the steward of the Commander's Residence entered the reception hall.

Li Jing said, "Steward, bring Nezha to the reception hall."

The steward respectfully replied, "Yes, Commander!"

With that, the steward hurried away.

Before long, the steward led Nezha into the reception hall.

The moment Taiyi True Person saw Nezha, his eyes lit up.

Taiyi True Person asked with a smile, "Your name is Nezha?"

Nezha said, "Yes!"

Taiyi True Person nodded. "Good. A good name."

Then, Taiyi True Person looked at Li Jing.

Taiyi True Person said, "Commander Li, I wish to take Nezha as my disciple. What do you think?"

Li Jing said awkwardly, "True Person, I fear I must disappoint you."

"Nezha has already taken Brother Huang as his master. How could he take another master?"

The instant Taiyi True Person heard this, his face changed dramatically. "What? Commander Li, what did you say?"

"Nezha has already taken him as his master???"

Then, Taiyi True Person stared at Di Xiao with a shocked expression.

Li Jing nodded. "That is correct!"

Taiyi True Person looked at Di Xiao, his smile not reaching his eyes as he said coldly, "What virtue or ability do you possess to take Nezha as your disciple?"

"Do not lead the child astray. It would be best for Nezha to take me as his master instead!"

Di Xiao sneered. "Taiyi True Person, are you threatening this Sovereign?"

"Someone like you is worthy of taking Nezha as a disciple?"

Taiyi True Person thundered, "Insolence!"

Di Xiao said coldly, "What? Have you flown into a rage out of shame?"

Taiyi True Person said coldly, "I advise you not to bring ruin upon yourself."

"To tell you the truth, Nezha is the reincarnation of Spirit Pearl, the attendant boy under Nuwa."

"Nezha was born with a mission. Once Dao Ancestor and Nuwa are enraged, are you sure you can bear the consequences?"

Di Xiao said coldly, "That is none of your concern, Taiyi True Person."

Di Xiao looked at Li Jing. "Li Jing, I will take Nezha back to my cave abode now."

Li Jing said, "All right. Nezha will be in Brother Huang's care."

Di Xiao nodded, then said, "Nezha, let us go."

Nezha nodded. "All right."

Then, Di Xiao took Nezha's hand and headed toward the reception hall.

Taiyi True Person, still seething with rage, came back to his senses and said coldly, "Wait."

"Just what school or sect do you come from? When I return, I will certainly tell my master!"

Di Xiao said, "There is no harm in telling you."

"Spirit Platform Square-Inch Mountain, Eastern Victory Divine Continent!"
