Nezha Steps In to Save the Monkeys
He immediately put aside what he was doing, summoned auspicious clouds, and rushed towards the Water Curtain Cave of Flower-Fruit Mountain.
After arriving outside the Water Curtain Cave, he rode on auspicious clouds and rushed inside. Nezha saw a leopard demon threatening the little monkeys inside the Water Curtain Cave, and he was immediately furious.
When Sun Wukong was still in Flower-Fruit Mountain, these little monkeys didn't take advantage of Sun Wukong fame to bully others; instead, they lived peacefully with everyone.
However, now that Sun Wukong is gone, many years have passed and monsters have started bullying these little monkeys. If he can't help Sun Wukong, can't he at least help these little monkeys?
Nezha leaped off the auspicious cloud and kicked the leopard demon, Nezha it embedded in the nearby stone wall.
After struggling to free itself from the stone wall, the spore turned around and shouted, "Who is it? Who ambushed me?"
"It's me, Grandpa."
Nezha answered his question with a dark expression.
What do you want to do?
The leopard demon asked Nezha angrily.
What are you trying to do now?
Nezha put on an angry expression and answered the question with a question.
"This Water Curtain Cave is such a wonderful place, how could it be occupied by a bunch of little monkeys? It should belong to Water Curtain Cave capable. This place should belong to me, so I'm going to take it over today."
The leopard spirit did not directly state its purpose.
"These little monkeys are under my protection. If you want to mess with them, you'd better ask me first. The kick I gave you earlier was to teach you a lesson. While I'm still in a good mood, get out of here and don't ever come back to harass this Water Curtain Cave or bully these little monkeys again. If I find out you don't know what's good for you, I'll kill you."
After Nezha leopard demon revealed his purpose, Nezha also explained the reason why he did so.
"Hahaha, what a boastful tone!"
"You think you can protect this bunch of little monkeys? Learn from this: if you hadn't ambushed me just now, would I be in such a sorry state?"
After hearing Nezha's words, Bao Zijian first laughed heartily, then pointed at Nezha arrogantly and said...
"If you want to seize this Water Curtain Cave right in front of me and bully those little monkeys, you're welcome to try and see how I deal with you."
She glanced at him affectionately, then uttered harsh words in a calm tone.
"Then I'll give it a try today."
After glancing at Nezha, the leopard demon rushed towards the nearest little monkey. When it reached the monkey, it suddenly leaped up and slapped it on the head.
However, the little monkey glanced at it but didn't flinch, showing no concern whatsoever for the leopard demon's attack.
Just as the leopard demon's attack was about to hit the little monkey's head, Nezha suddenly appeared beside the leopard demon, raised his foot and kicked out fiercely, hitting the leopard demon's abdomen. The force of this kick sent it flying into the wall.
"Thank you, Ou Ba!"
The little monkey seemed to have anticipated that Nezha would intervene in time to save him, so he waited there as the leopard demon's attack landed on him. After Nezha rescued him, he hugged Nezha's leg and thanked him.
"You're welcome. Didn't I already say that while your king is away, I will protect your safety? If anyone comes to bully you, just tell me, and I will beat them to a pulp, no matter who they are."
Nezha smiled and patted the little monkey's head, speaking gently to him.
"Hey, you stinking leopard, I'll give you one more chance. Get lost now and I can pretend nothing happened. But if you make another move, I'll kill you on the spot."
Nezha saying these words to the little monkey, Nezha looked coldly at the leopard demon he had kicked into the wall and said fiercely.
"I refuse to believe I can't take over this Water Curtain Cave. Today I'll show you what I'm capable of."
The leopard struggled out of the wall, and after hearing Nezha's words, it remained defiant, glaring fiercely at Nezha. After saying this, it charged towards the nearest monkey. The leopard knew to pick on the weak, thinking its speed would allow it to easily defeat the monkey. However, it forgot that Nezha was even faster.
Before the leopard could even pounce on the little monkey, Nezha was already in front of the leopard spirit and punched it right in the face. The punch sent the leopard spirit flying out of the Water Curtain Cave and crashing heavily outside.
Nezha got up and chased after it. When they got outside, the leopard was struggling to get up from the crater it had created. It had several broken bones and its face was covered in blood from Nezha.
"Grandpa, please let me go! I was blind and didn't recognize your Mount Tai. Please forgive my ignorance and spare my life. I promise I will repay you and be filial to you in the future."
Upon seeing Nezha approaching it Nezha, the leopard immediately knelt down, begging for Nezha and repeatedly kowtowing, hoping Nezha would spare its life.
After Bao Ziqing finished speaking, he knelt on the ground, his entire body prostrate on the ground, his head bleeding profusely from hitting it. However, he could only look at the ground and dared not look up at Nezha in front of him.
"Look at you, if you had realized your mistake, apologized, and left when I first arrived, you could have saved your life. I wouldn't have been so ruthless and tried to kill you."
"I gave you two chances to leave the Water Curtain Cave and stop going into the grave, but why didn't you listen? Time and again, you tried to kill those little monkeys right in front of me."
He walked up to the leopard spirit, squatted down, looked at him, and spoke to him earnestly.
"You're showing me so little respect, do you think I'd let you off the hook?"
"Besides, I've already beaten you up. In this situation, if I let you go and leave, what if you recover and then take advantage of me to attack these little monkeys? What if they didn't have time to notify me, and you might kill them all?"
"So, in order for those little monkeys to have a safe environment after I leave, you must give up your life here today."
At this point, Nezha put on a pained expression and was about to kill the leopard demon.
