Honghuang: My understanding is beyond belief. I am the first immortal of Jiejiao.

Upon hearing this, Lin Zhu's heart tightened, and she subconsciously moved back a little.

He reminded him nervously.

"Queen Mother, I am a married man."

The Queen Mother looked at Lin Zhu with an ambiguous expression and tempted him.

"Why should those who cultivate immortality care about such formalities?"

Lin Zhu tried his best to remain calm, knowing he couldn't continue entangled with the Queen Mother of the West.

He asked the Queen Mother to get straight to the point.

"Queen Mother, please get straight to the point."

The Queen Mother of the West finally put aside her joking nature and got down to business.

"Lin Yushen, I would like to ask you to go to Beiju Luzhou again to retrieve the Zhuxian Sword."

Lin Zhu was startled upon hearing this.

The Immortal Execution Sword is an ancient treasure of slaughter, possessing boundless power.

He was puzzled as to why the Queen Mother of the West would send him to retrieve the Immortal Execution Sword.

"Queen Mother, why is the Immortal Execution Sword in Beiju Luzhou?"

The Queen Mother of the West explained.

“Back then, I borrowed it to suppress an old friend, but that person has now vanished. You can now go and retrieve the Zhuxian Sword.”

Lin Zhu realized that the Queen Mother of the West possessed immense power, possibly even surpassing that of the Jade Emperor.

He pondered for a moment and decided to accept the task.

"Okay, I'll go."

The Queen Mother of the West gave her another suggestive look, as if to tempt her.

"The sword is yours, and so am I."

Lin Zhu almost had a nosebleed. He tried hard to suppress the impulse in his heart and reminded himself again that he should not be tempted by beauty.

"Queen Mother of the West, you..."

The Queen Mother of the West ultimately told Lin Zhu to just retrieve the sword, and that they could discuss other matters another day.

"Just go and get the sword. We can discuss the rest another day."

Lin Zhu breathed a sigh of relief; he felt like his heart was about to stop beating.

Just as he was about to take his leave, the Queen Mother of the West stretched lazily.

Her clothes slipped down because of this movement, revealing a large expanse of her underwear.

Lin Zhu blushed instantly, feeling as if his nose was about to bleed.

Lin Zhu grabbed a peach from the table, hastily excused himself, and fled as if in a panic.

The Queen Mother looked at his disheveled figure, a seductive smile appearing on her face, and whispered something.

"Lin Zhu, you can't escape my grasp."

Lin Zhu left Yaochi at a speed that was almost like fleeing for his life.

Outside the Jade Pool, he was panting heavily, his face showing a mixture of grief and indignation, looking just like a bullied young wife.

"You wicked Queen Mother of the West!"

Lin Zhu muttered angrily under her breath.

"You, the head of all the celestial female immortals, are actually trying to seduce me like this! This is practically a crime! If I weren't so weak, I would have already... would have forced myself on you!"

He clenched his fists, his expression extremely bizarre.

This was the first time since he came to this world that he had so desperately wanted to improve his cultivation, and the reason was that he couldn't force himself on the Queen Mother of the West.

"If I ever become a saint, I will definitely win over this woman who has bewitched all living beings!"

Lin Zhu made a silent vow in his heart.

He took a deep breath, trying to calm himself down.

He knew that now was not the time to let his mind wander.

He glanced at the sky, calculated the time, and figured it should be around the time of the scene where the Tang Emperor encounters a ghost.

"Let's put the matter of Beiju Luzhou on hold for now."

Lin Zhu thought to himself.

"Li Shimin's matter is more important. I have to go and help him. We can't let the plan to the Western Paradise succeed."

However, we still need to go to Beiju Luzhou.

After all, there was a free Immortal Execution Sword there, and he was almost out of pills.

"Now I either have to ask my good friend Gu Yang for help, or I'll have to go fishing in Beiju Luzhou by myself."

Lin Zhu secretly made plans in his heart.

"However, Gu Yang has always been generous to me. If I go to him, he should give me some good stuff, right?"

Thinking that Gu Yang might generously help, Lin Zhu's lips curled into a wicked smile.

He felt as if he had found another good way to get rich.

Meanwhile, in Chang'an, the capital of the Tang Dynasty, in the southern continent of Jambudvipa.

Samantabhadra Bodhisattva and the Dragon King of the Wei River are standing on the top of the palace.

Last night, after failing to plead with the Tang Emperor, Bodhisattva Samantabhadra felt that things could still continue.

Because the Dragon King of the Wei River insisted on saying, "I will haunt you even as a ghost," this statement gave Bodhisattva Samantabhadra room to maneuver.

At this time, the palace was heavily guarded.

The inner guard, composed of countless powerful Golden Core cultivators, protected the Tang King's bedroom completely.

There were also powerful Tang Dynasty generals such as Qin Shubao and Yuchi Gong guarding the gate, making it virtually impenetrable; not even a fly could get in.

However, Samantabhadra Bodhisattva and the Dragon King of the Wei River stood easily atop the palace, unnoticed by anyone.

They were like invisible people, protected by powerful magic.

The Dragon King of the Wei River proposed.

"Bodhisattva Samantabhadra, why don't we order these people to fall into a deep sleep, and then force the Tang Emperor to submit?"

Samantabhadra Bodhisattva shook her head. She secretly calculated with her fingers and felt that Guanyin Bodhisattva should be arriving in Chang'an by now.

According to the plan of the Western Paradise, a wronged dragon king's spirit was needed to frighten the Tang emperor, and then Guanyin Bodhisattva would jump out to rescue the Tang emperor, and everything would fall into place.

Samantabhadra Bodhisattva suddenly turned his head, looked at the Dragon King of the Wei River, and asked.

"Dragon King of the Wei River, are you willing to dedicate yourself to my great cause in the Western Paradise?"

The Dragon King of the Wei River agreed without hesitation.

"I am willing!"

However, Bodhisattva Samantabhadra suddenly pointed at the Dragon King of the Wei River, and a cold light flashed across his neck.

"laugh!"

The Dragon King of the Wei River died on the spot, and his body fell from the top of the palace with a muffled thud.

The ghost of the Dragon King of the Wei River floated out from the corpse.

He was terrified and couldn't understand why Samantabhadra Bodhisattva wanted to kill him.

"Samantabhadra Bodhisattva! Why...why do you want to kill me?"

The Dragon King of the Wei River asked in alarm.

Samantabhadra Bodhisattva sneered and stretched out a hand to control the vengeful spirit of the Wei River Dragon King.

"Dragon King of the Wei River, you need not ask any more questions. You only need to act according to my plan, otherwise..."

Samantabhadra Bodhisattva's voice was cold and full of threat.

She reminded the Dragon King of the Wei River to think about his entire family.

The Dragon King of the Wei River begged for mercy in despair, but Bodhisattva Samantabhadra told him that it was too late.

"Alright, you don't need to say anything more. Now, follow my plan, enter the Tang King's palace, and intimidate him."

Samantabhadra Bodhisattva erected a protective barrier to block the powerful aura of the human emperor, and then pushed the vengeful spirit of the Wei River Dragon King into the Tang Emperor's palace.

The Tang Emperor was in a very bad mood after what happened yesterday.

But he still followed Lin Zhu's teachings, faced it openly, and showed no fear whatsoever.

That night, the Tang Emperor fell into a deep sleep, but was awakened by the vengeful spirit of the Dragon King of the Wei River.

"Li Shimin! You owe me my life!"

The Dragon King of the Wei River, holding his own severed head, shouted loudly at the entrance.

Upon hearing this voice, the Tang King's heart stirred; he knew that this was the primordial spirit of the Wei River Dragon King.

He was actually quite excited, without the slightest fear.

He opened the door himself, facing the vengeful spirit of the Wei River Dragon King, without the slightest fear on his face. The Wei River Dragon King realized that he must have done something wrong today.

He originally thought that his terrifying appearance would easily frighten the Tang King into wetting his pants, but who would have thought that the Tang King was not afraid at all, but instead looked at him with the eyes of someone watching a monkey show.

Why aren't you afraid?

The Dragon King of the Wei River asked, somewhat stammering.

The Tang emperor did not answer, but simply beckoned to him with his finger, signaling him to bring over the severed head.

The Dragon King of the Wei River did not understand his meaning, but he still placed his bloody head in front of the Tang King.

Blood was still flowing from the severed head, making it look extremely horrific.

However, King Tang was not afraid at all. He grabbed the head of the Dragon King of the Wei River, catching the Dragon King off guard.

"What are you going to do?!"

The Dragon King of the Wei River asked in alarm.

The Tang king did not answer. He began to play with the head of the Wei River Dragon King, even poking his nostrils with his finger and pulling at his dragon horns.

"Wow, these dragon horns are pretty hard."

The Tang emperor muttered to himself.

"This blood is quite fresh."

The Dragon King of the Wei River was so angry that he howled like a ghost, and he angrily demanded that the Tang Emperor return his head.

"Li Shimin! Give me back my head! If you dare to play tricks on me again, I won't be so polite!"

However, the Tang King sneered and kicked the head of the Wei River Dragon King away.

"Oh!"

The head of the Dragon King of the Wei River was kicked away by the Tang King like a ball, flying into the distance.

"Ah! My head!"

The Dragon King of the Wei River cried out in terror, filled with anger and despair.

His head was kicked away, and he felt as if his soul was about to fall apart.

The ghostly spirit of the Wei River Dragon King exuded a terrifying aura, and a chilling, eerie atmosphere spread out.

Although he was a spirit, his primordial spirit's energy was still powerful enough to deal with mortals.

"Li Shimin! You've gone too far! I'm going to kill you!"

The Dragon King of the Wei River roared and charged towards King Tang.

However, the Tang emperor stood there and sneered, showing no fear whatsoever.

He looked at the ghost of the Wei River Dragon King, and suddenly unleashed his power, radiating an incomparably scorching light, his yang energy soaring to the sky.

"what!"

The ghost of the Dragon King of the Wei River was enveloped by the golden light emanating from the Tang King, and he felt his ghost being gradually devoured by that scorching light.

He was horrified to discover that the Tang King possessed the light of righteousness, something that all evil spirits feared most.

"How is this possible? How could you have something like this on you?"

The Dragon King of the Wei River asked in alarm.

He felt his soul being burned by the golden light, causing him excruciating pain.

He was terrified and crawled out on all fours, trying to escape from the Tang Emperor.

But the Tang King sneered, grabbed the Wei River Dragon King by the legs, and dragged him into the palace.

"Ah! Help! Samantabhadra Bodhisattva! Save me!"

The Dragon King of the Wei River cried out in terror, but the Tang King ignored him. He casually picked up a brick from the corner of the wall, ready to teach the Dragon King of the Wei River a lesson.

"You feathered beast, how dare you threaten me? You're tired of living!"

"No! Don't! Don't hit me!"

The Dragon King of the Wei River was dragged into a dark room by the Tang King. He screamed for help in terror, but the Tang King hit him on the forehead with a brick, making him dizzy.

"Oh!"

The Tang Emperor closed the door to the small dark room, from which came the screams of the Dragon King of the Wei River.

Meanwhile, Samantabhadra Bodhisattva watched in the sky, dumbfounded.

She never expected things to turn out this way.

She originally thought that the Dragon King of the Wei River could easily frighten the Tang King, and then she could step in to rescue him, and everything would fall into place.

But who could have imagined that the Tang Emperor would be so fearless, and instead capture the Dragon King of the Wei River?

"How is this possible?"

Samantabhadra Bodhisattva murmured to himself.

She waited anxiously for Guanyin Bodhisattva to arrive, but Guanyin Bodhisattva did not appear for a long time.

Samantabhadra Bodhisattva calculated with his fingers and immediately understood. The Tang Emperor possessed the yang energy of the divine elixir, which made him fearless against demons and evil spirits.

"Damn it! That Lin Zhu actually gave the Tang King something like this!"

Samantabhadra Bodhisattva cursed inwardly.

She was extremely anxious because if Guanyin Bodhisattva didn't come soon, the Dragon King of the Wei River might be killed, and the whole plan would fall through.

Guanyin Bodhisattva had actually arrived in Chang'an City long ago.

However, she was stopped at the city gate by the city god and the local earth god, who refused to let her in.

"Great Bodhisattva Guanyin, please wait!"

"How dare you! I have come to Chang'an City by the decree of the Buddha, how dare you obstruct me?"

Guanyin Bodhisattva was so angry that her face turned black. She never expected that she would have such a day, being blocked outside the city by a group of city gods and local deities, unable to enter Chang'an City.

“Great Bodhisattva Guanyin, it’s not that we won’t let you in, but Lin Yushen has ordered that a great purge is currently underway in Chang’an City, and no deity is allowed to enter.”

"what?!"

Guanyin Bodhisattva was so angry she almost jumped up and down.

"Lin Zhu? It's him again?!"

She felt powerless; this Lin Zhu was simply the biggest obstacle to the Western Paradise plan.

She knew that if she forced her way in, it would definitely attract Lin Zhu's attention, and things would become even more complicated.

She could only wait anxiously outside the city.

Guanyin Bodhisattva's face was covered with frost. She shouted angrily and was about to force her way into Chang'an City.

However, a group of city gods blocked the city gate completely, refusing to budge an inch.

"Great Bodhisattva Guanyin, please wait!"

The City God of Chang'an stared coldly at Guanyin Bodhisattva, showing no fear.

"Chang'an City is under the control of the Heavenly Court. No one may enter without the Heavenly Court's permission!"

Guanyin Bodhisattva's eyes widened in anger. She couldn't understand why these lowly immortals dared to block her way.

In the past, they would simply turn a blind eye, or even welcome her in. Now, these insignificant city gods dare to be so arrogant—it's an utter disgrace!
Guanyin Bodhisattva was anxious. She calculated with her fingers and knew that time was running out.

Then, she roared, and the aura of a Great Immortal suddenly rippled out from her body, like a whirlwind, blowing away all the local gods and city gods.

However, these city gods remained unyielding.

One by one, they steadied themselves in mid-air and once again stood in front of Guanyin Bodhisattva.

Their eyes were full of dreams and light.

Because the power of Guanyin Bodhisattva is far less than the mere glance of the law enforcement deities of the Three Realms.

The City God of Chang'an was very tough; he even challenged Guanyin Bodhisattva, asking her to take action.

"Great Bodhisattva Guanyin, if you're not satisfied, then hit me!"

The City God of Chang'an stood tall, his face full of fearlessness.

"If you hit me, Lin Yushen will definitely stand up for me!"

Guanyin Bodhisattva's eyes turned cold, and she asked.

Aren't you afraid of me?

The city gods shook their heads without hesitation and said in unison.

"Don't be afraid! Because you are no match for the God of Hell!"

This was the first time in her life that Guanyin Bodhisattva had been mocked by the City God, and she was furious.

She finally lost her temper, and with all her might, she charged into Chang'an City.

Its powerful aura swept away all the city gods, making them unable to stop it.

"hateful!"

The city gods were furious, but they were helpless and could only watch as Guanyin Bodhisattva departed. (End of Chapter)
