Conferred God: Got cramped at the beginning

Chapter 817: Calculations in the North Sea

It was none other than Madam Yin.

Previously, when Ao Bing and Nezha went to Chentang Pass, they asked for a favor and transferred Madam Yin from Chentang Pass. When the incident at Chentang Pass happened, Wen Zhong was worried that Madam Yin would be affected and hinder the war, so he transferred Madam Yin to Chaoge to escort food and grass.

Madam Yin herself can be described as an extraordinary person.

The Chentangguan Incident involved her husband and her son.

If an ordinary person were to encounter such a change, his mind would probably completely collapse.

But Madam Yin, despite such a big change, managed to keep herself calm, endured the strange looks and speculations of others, and properly escorted the food and supplies back from Chaoge before finding Ao Bing.

"There are many different opinions about the Chentang Pass Incident. There are countless mouths and countless opinions."

"And the countless claims are so complicated that it's hard to tell whether they're true or false."

"As a woman, it is difficult for me to distinguish between truth and falsehood."

"The Great Lord of Justice is someone who witnessed the incident. Can you tell me the details?" The sword light stopped in front of Ao Bing, revealing the figure of Madam Yin.

She looked at Ao Bing. There was no resentment in her eyes for Ao Bing revealing everything, only a sincere desire to know the truth.

"Madam Yin, there are some things that are better left unseen - Madam, just go with the flow, why bother trying to get to the bottom of it?" Ao Bing sighed.

He had no idea about the incident at Chentang Pass. How should he mention it to Madam Yin - saying that Li Jing was secretly stealing the flesh and blood of his own child in an attempt to seize Nezha's origin?
Or, when Nezha was still in the womb, Li Jing colluded with others to murder the fetus?
Or, tell her that it was because of her comfort that Nezha had never fallen out with Li Jing over the years, and had his flesh and blood stolen by Li Jing?
If Madam Yin herself was a sinner, then Ao Bing naturally wouldn't care about the impact his words would have on her.

But she was not like that - for a normal mother, the details of Chentang Pass were too cruel.

"Father and son are killing each other, and it has come to this point. Should I still pretend to be deaf and dumb?" Mrs. Yin asked back.

"In that case, Madam Yin might as well go to the East China Sea." Ao Bing pointed out the location of the island - "Madam, once you take a look at the things refined on the island, you will know the connection between them."

……

Compared to the celebration in Heaven, the Dragon Palace in the North Sea, which was also listed in the sequence of Heaven, was filled with gloom and sorrow at this time.

In the main hall of the Dragon Palace, on the throne that originally belonged to the Dragon King of the North Sea, a thin-faced Taoist was sitting.

The Taoist priest sat upright on the throne, with his hands folded in his arms, hidden in his large clothes. Next to him was a young Taoist priest with an arrogant look on his face.

"Have you thought it through, Lord Long?" The old Taoist spoke slowly, his voice gloomy.

Below these two men was the Dragon King of the North Sea, who looked extremely embarrassed—and the Dragon King’s eldest son, Ao Xian, who was tied up with chains.

Seventy-two long nails pierced into Ao Xian's body along the chains, turning the chains into a horrific torture device - if the restrained person moved even the slightest, even if it was just the beating of a heart, it would cause excruciating pain.

With this action, Ao Xian couldn't even maintain his human form - his whole body changed back and forth between human form and dragon form, and each change brought him even greater pain.

"Father, ignore him!"

"I don't believe it. He dares to kill me!" The tied Ao Xian lay on the ground. He lowered his head and tried to use the dragon horns above his head to "stand up" from the ground.

"Of course I dare not kill you." The old Taoist at the top chuckled.

"But if the Dragon King does not give me an explanation, I will go to the Heavenly Court and file a complaint with the Great Lord of Justice in front of the Emperor of Heaven - accusing him of not exercising strict discipline and condoning his own people's crimes."

"I would like to see if the Lord of Justice still has the dignity to continue to govern the Heavenly Rules!"

“And if he loses power because of this, how will the other true dragons in the four seas view you, the North Sea!” The old Taoist said, his smile faded, but his voice became more severe.

"I did nothing wrong, so why should I be afraid of you complaining!" Ao Xian's voice was weak, but his attitude was extremely firm - "I also want to see if you, Ying Xing Dao, dare to let the Azure Dragon God know what you, Ying Xing Dao, have done!"

"It seems that we can't reach an agreement today." The old Taoist slowly stretched out his hand, "If that's the case, then you can't blame me."

The old Taoist talked about the current situation.

Over the years, there have been many frictions between the local sects and the dragon clan, and there has been a lot of bullying against the Dragon Palace. Anyone with a discerning eye can see that after the battle of the North Sea, the Great Lord of Justice and the Great Dragon God Azure Dragon are likely to stop by the North Sea.

By that time, when we settle old scores, it will be embarrassing for everyone.

Therefore, several sects around the Dragon Palace decided to settle the feud with the Dragon Palace in the North Sea before Qinglong set foot in the North Sea.

——Although the Dragon Palace has obtained the true dragon qi, many true dragons can embark on the path of cultivation and transform that huge foundation into their own strength.

But after all, the dragon clan has only been practicing for too short a time - in the entire Dragon Palace, the North Sea Dragon King, who has the highest level of practice, is still quite far away from Taiyi.

Therefore, even if a blue dragon appeared among the dragon clan, the North Sea Dragon Palace would still be an insignificant existence in the eyes of the surrounding sects.

Therefore, in the judgment of those sects, Qinglong would never turn against the neighboring Taoist sect just because of the Beihai Dragon Palace which does not even have a Taiyi - what's more, the Beihai Dragon Palace and Qinglong, apart from the title of both being real dragons, have no connection with each other.

Coincidentally, during this process, Ao Xian, the Dragon Prince of the North Sea Dragon Palace, led the young real dragons of the North Sea Dragon Palace to ambush and kill the son of Yingxing Dao.

So, this old Taoist from Yingxing Dao came to the Dragon Palace in the North Sea on behalf of several sects and settled the grudges in a superior manner.

Before Qinglong sets foot in the North Sea, we must completely subdue the North Sea Dragon Palace and establish the master and servant of the North Sea.

After all, judging from Qinglong's actions, these Qigong practitioners thought they had already diagnosed Qinglong's pulse - the first thing he discussed when he went to the Heavenly Court was the Heavenly Rules, which showed that he was an upright person who attached great importance to rules and decency.

And such an upright person can naturally "deceive others with square tactics".

As long as they reach an agreement with the Dragon Palace of the North Sea before Qinglong sets foot in the North Sea, even if Qinglong is dissatisfied with the agreement, he can only hold his nose and accept the situation in the North Sea.

However, the old Taoist never imagined that the Dragon King of the North Sea, who had always seemed extremely obedient in front of the various sects in the North Sea in the past, would become extremely tough at this time. He did not think that his own dragon sons had done anything wrong - they were not even willing to admit this mistake, let alone allow the old Taoist to take advantage of the situation and deceive the Dragon King of the North Sea into signing a contract.

"If I, Ying Xingdao, hadn't protected you, do you think your North Sea Dragon Palace would have been able to remain peaceful until now?"

"Do you think that when Yuan Futong summoned the monsters to help him in the battle, he would not come to force your North Sea Dragon Palace?"

"Before the Great Lord of Justice appeared, you dragons were very conspicuous in the North Sea. You knew it yourself."

“And you also know why you were able to preserve your inheritance until the Great Lord of Justice appeared.”

"Even if it's the Lord of Justice in person, he has to remember that we are protecting the dragon clan!"

"Since you and your son are so stubborn and refuse to admit your mistakes, I will write to the Heavenly Court and ask the Lord of Justice to come down from the Heavenly Court and ask for justice from him."

“Ask him, your Beihai clan is repaying kindness with enmity. You just achieved Qi cultivation and brazenly plotted to murder me, Yingxing Daozi. Is this right or wrong?”

"I am not afraid to tell you, Old Dragon King. Today, the battle of the North Sea has just ended. Countless evil immortals and evil gods have fled to the North Sea with resentment and anger."

"And you, the North Sea Dragon Palace, are the first to bear the brunt of this situation!"

“To lock those evil immortals and evil gods in the North Sea, even if the Great Lord of Justice comes here in person, he will have to rely on the power of the many sects in the North Sea!”

"Otherwise, what use would the crooked melons and cracked dates from your North Sea Dragon Palace be?"

"Old Dragon King, I have one last question for you. Are you really going to protect these dragon sons who have committed crimes to the end, even at the cost of implicated your entire Beihai lineage?" The old Taoist said, his words seemed gentle, but the threat in them was not diminished at all. "Aren't you afraid that the Great Lord of Justice will dislike your Beihai dragon clan for being nosy and dislike your Beihai lineage, and turn you real dragons who have just been given the opportunity to practice Qi into wild dragons again?"

"The peace and stability we have had over the years was gained by the lives of our dragon clan members. What does it have to do with you!" When the old Taoist said this, Ao Xian became furious. The vitality in his body vibrated, and the dragon blood flowing along the iron nails began to burn.

"What do you mean by the dragon tribe?"

"Isn't it just the old loach selling his daughter?"

"If it weren't for the pretty Dragon Girl in your Dragon Palace, how could this place have room for your North Sea Dragon Palace?" Looking at the furious Ao Xian, the young Taoist next to the old Taoist sneered.

Hearing the words of the young Taoist, the old Taoist Ying Xingdao's expression changed slightly, and he said in his heart that something was not good.

The Dragon Girl of the North Sea can be said to be an unspeakable pain point in the Dragon Court of the North Sea.

This pain can be traced back thousands of years!
Thousands of years ago, on the shores of the North Sea, a prince of a vassal state fell in love with a dragon girl from the North Sea. At that time, a giant monster from the North Sea broke into the Dragon Court, and the Dragon Court was unable to resist.

So, the dragon girl became the concubine of the prince of that vassal state, and borrowed soldiers from the prince to resolve the crisis in the Dragon Palace of the North Sea.

After that, the frequency of giant monster invasions to the North Sea Dragon Court suddenly increased.

Whenever the North Sea Dragon Court was invaded and the North Sea lineage was facing a crisis, Qigong practitioners from the surrounding Taoist sects would come and drive away the giant monsters, and then use the power of favors to ask the Dragon Court to marry the dragon girl as a Taoist partner, or ask for the dragon girl to marry on behalf of the prince of a certain prince, and so on.

Or maybe some dragon ladies came forward and asked the surrounding sects to change the situation.

Of course, they are called Taoist companions, but in fact, they are just objects of spiritual nourishment and consumables of the Yin-Yang method. The dragon girl, who has a long lifespan, often does not live more than a hundred years after becoming a Taoist companion and marrying into the human world!
Only a very few can maintain long-lasting love.

Over the years, the real dragons in the Dragon Palace have always suspected that the so-called giant monster invasion was actually the intentional indulgence of the surrounding sects, and they were deliberately heading for their Dragon Palace, with the purpose of legitimately seeking the Dragon Girl of the Dragon Palace. However, it is almost impossible for the real dragons who even find it difficult to practice Qi to find out the cause and effect - occasionally some real dragons who have the opportunity to become Qi are also dissuaded by the elders of the Dragon Palace from touching these things.

But no matter what, such things have always been a hidden pain for the Dragon Palace in the North Sea.

It would be better if it wasn't mentioned. Once it is mentioned, it will definitely cause a backlash from the Dragon Palace.

Therefore, as soon as the young Taoist opened his mouth, the older one immediately thought that something was wrong - before he could think of any words to change the situation, the Dragon King of the North Sea sighed and helped Ao Xian up. The spiritual light that had been hidden in the Dragon Palace also appeared directly at this moment, and it confronted the spiritual light on the chains on Ao Xian's body, preventing Ao Xian from being hurt by the chains again.

"In that case, please take a seat, Brother Daoist. I will personally send a message to the Great Dragon God, asking him to come here and sort out the grievances between my Beihai lineage and the many Taoist sects over the years."

"By the way, let me also seek justice for the Dragon Girl of the North Sea."

“Brother Taoist said that my son was wrong - then brother Taoist, you should know that if my son had not taken the first step, it would have been me instead of my son who took action.” The Dragon King of the North Sea mobilized his vital energy and, with the help of his own dragon blood, used the true dragon qi to activate the blue dragon qi.

Why did Ao Xian kill the disciple of Yingxing Dao?

Why would the other dragon sons in the Dragon Palace who had successfully practiced Qi respond to Ao Xian? There must be a reason for this.

It was at this time that, outside the blocked palace gate, Prime Minister Turtle took the news brought by the shrimp soldiers, and then his eyes lit up. Then, regardless of the changes in the palace gate, he went straight to the gate of the Dragon Court.

……

Outside the gate of the North Sea Dragon Palace, Ao Bing stood in front of the door.

After persuading Madam Yin to go to the East China Sea, Ao Bing went straight to the Dragon Palace in the North Sea.

At the entrance of the Dragon Palace, the shrimp soldier guarding the gate also took Ao Bing's letter and went in to report.

After a while, an old man carrying a tortoise shell on his back came to the gate.

"North Sea Dragon Palace, Turtle has longevity, pay homage to the Great Dragon God."

It was none other than the Turtle Prime Minister of the North Sea Dragon Palace - no matter how poor the dragon clan was, there was always a Turtle Prime Minister in the Dragon Palace. This was almost a custom that spanned time and space, comparable to the eternal custom of Daluo.

After the ceremony, Gui Youshou immediately knelt down in front of Ao Bing and burst into tears.

"The thieves are here, and the North Sea Dragon Court is in danger. I beg the Great Dragon God to save the Dragon Court."

Hearing this, Ao Bing's expression suddenly darkened.

"I am standing on the clouds in the North Sea, and there are still strong men who dare to break into the Dragon Palace?" Ao Bing's words were filled with surprise despite his gloomy face.

What was hit was not the North Sea Dragon Palace, it was clearly his face!

"Those sinful immortals and evil gods who fled into the North Sea, are they so impatient to make trouble?" The image of those who broke into the Dragon Palace emerged in Ao Bing's mind, and then he helped Gui Youshou up.

The turtle clan is different from the dragon clan - the dragon clan, being feared by heaven and earth, has fallen to its present state, but in the great war among the three clans, the turtle clan never caused any harm, so the black turtle and the like are still the auspicious signs between heaven and earth, and are easily accepted by others.

The difficulty for turtles to practice Qi is much easier than that for dragons.

Between heaven and earth, there has always been the ancestral home of the turtle species, which has caused all kinds of turtles between heaven and earth to either be transformed into monsters or to practice qi and become immortals - but no matter what, there has always been a lineage of turtles in each of the four seas that gave up the opportunity to practice qi and instead guarded the gate of the dragon clan.

Therefore, even in this era of killing, Ao Bing still has a good impression of these turtles.

"Who is doing this recklessly in the Dragon Palace?"

"Replying to the Great Dragon God, he is a Taoist from Yingxing Dao, west of Longting."

"Prince Ao Xian, in revenge for his sister, killed the Taoist priest of Yingxing Dao - that's why the Taoist priest of Yingxing Dao came here to demand punishment and to destroy the younger generation of dragon sons in Longting." Gui Suishou said.

The next moment, the voice from the Dragon Palace, the voice of the North Sea Dragon King asking for justice, bypassed the blockade of the formation and appeared in Ao Bing's ears.

"Great Dragon God, please wait a moment. I will go and report to the Dragon King." Hearing the voice, Gui Youshou showed an embarrassed look on his face as if his little thoughts were seen through, and then he knocked on the sealed door of the palace.

"Your Majesty, the Great Dragon God has arrived."

In an instant, the sounds in the palace stopped abruptly.

Before the palace gate opened and closed, the crying of the Dragon King of the North Sea had already been heard.

"Ao Chun of the North Sea, I beg the Great Dragon God to take charge of my North Sea lineage." While speaking, Ao Chun slapped Ao Xian's body with his palm - Ao Xian, who was originally trying hard to transform into a human form, also transformed into a white dragon over a hundred feet in size.

The icy scale wounds, the pitch-black iron nails, and the flaming blood were extremely glaring.

Then, Ao Bing's gaze passed over the father and son and fell on the top of the Dragon Palace.

On the Dragon King's throne, the Taoist from Yingxing Dao had not yet had time to come down.

"Master Zhen Liuxing of Yingxing Dao greets the Great Lord of Justice."

"Your Majesty, allow me to report this - when Your Majesty was monitoring the North Sea, our thirteen sects in the North Sea each activated their own formations, intending to respond to Your Majesty and seal off the North Sea."

"But I didn't expect that an evil dragon from the Dragon Court took advantage of the situation and murdered my Zong Daozi when my Yingxing Daozi was connecting the formations, causing the thirteen formations to collapse, allowing the monsters under Yuan Futong to escape into the North Sea, and making the Heavenly Monarch's trip to the North Sea unsuccessful."

"I have come here at this moment on the orders of the thirteen Dao Lords of the North Sea to demand an explanation from the Dragon Lord of the North Sea."

"There was some friction in our conversation. I hope Your Majesty will be lenient." said Taoist Meteor.

He also knew that as the Great Lord of Justice, Ao Bing had originally intended to wipe out those evil immortals and evil gods, but many of them had fled into the North Sea, causing their inheritance to be uninterrupted - in such a situation, Ao Bing must have regrets and anger in his heart.

Otherwise, the Great Lord of Justice, who was supposed to be preparing for the celebration in Heaven, would never suddenly appear in the North Sea.

Therefore, he intentionally linked the matter of the North Sea Dragon Palace with the North Sea War a while ago, hoping to make Ao Bing take a stance in his mind - in this way, Ao Bing would naturally become tired of the North Sea Dragon Palace and would be biased towards them.

As soon as he finished his clever words, Liuxing Taoist started talking about the death of his own Taoist. Tears welled up in the corners of his eyes.

"Tian Jun, my Daozi was tortured to death!"

"After these evil dragons from the North Sea attacked and destroyed my Daozi's vitality, they used their claws and fangs as knives, forcing my Daozi to remain awake and cut off their flesh, take out their organs, and break their bones bit by bit."

"When my sect discovered the abnormality, my son was left with only a head - my sect's doctors diagnosed that my son died in pain under this torture!"

"Such a cruel method, who else could it be except the evil dragon?"

"I beg you to be clear-headed. You must not shield me just because we are both members of the dragon clan, and bring shame to your reputation."

At this point, the Taoist Meteor suddenly used his magical power to shake the ocean, causing the surrounding Taiyi Qigong practitioners to curiously cast their gazes towards the Dragon Palace to see what was happening there.

Naturally, his final words, "cannot be concealed", also spread in all directions.

"Aren't you afraid of making things worse by showing off your cleverness in front of me?" Ao Bing's gaze fell on the Taoist.

"How dare I." The Taoist made a humble gesture.

He was not worried about angering Ao Bing - even though they were in the wrong regarding the Dragon Girl, they were only in the wrong.

Ever since the decision was made to break off with the North Sea Dragon Clan, the thirteen sects have teamed up to clean up the area. All evidence has been cleared, and all the dead have entered reincarnation.

Even the Yingxing Daozi who was attacked and killed was personally refined and sent into reincarnation by the Dao Master of Yingxing Dao after his death.

Under such circumstances, the people from the thirteen sects could guarantee that unless their souls were searched, even the Heavenly Court and the Underworld would not be able to find any evidence of the Dragon Girl’s crime between heaven and earth.

As for searching their souls - how could Heaven search the soul of a living being just because of a suspicion without any evidence?

If this is the case, then the immortal officials and generals in heaven will each clean up the mess. Then what is the point of them cleaning up the mess?

The eyes and ears of the immortals in Heaven were even more complex and terrifying than Ao Bing had expected - to put it bluntly, there were actually immortals in Heaven who were watching the thirteen sects in the North Sea.

The actions of these thirteen sects are equivalent to setting an example for the immortal officials and generals in heaven.

As long as these thirteen sects can remain safe and sound regarding the Dragon Girl incident, the immortal officials and generals in Heaven will naturally follow suit and cut off all past affairs cleanly.

"As you said, the real dragon of the dragon clan killed your Zong Daozi, but the North Sea Dragon King gave him protection. Why did he have to protect the murderer?"

"That's right." Taoist Meteor was very calm.

“Great Dragon God, you cannot believe his one-sided words!” On one side of the hall, Ao Xian, who was nailed with chains, let out a mournful cry.
