Chapter 540 Yang Jian
"Reopening the world?"

The gods were taken aback by Li Yu's words, then secretly chuckled.

They all looked at Li Yu, wanting to laugh but not daring to, their faces turning red from holding it in.

This guy is spouting nonsense; it's absolutely laughable.

They acknowledged that Li Yu was very strong, so strong that no one present dared to even entertain the slightest thought of fighting.

But to start anew?

Who does he think he is?

Does he think he's the great god Pangu?

Does he think he has a magic axe that can cleave the heavens?!

Without the Heaven-Opening Axe, what's the point of talking about recreating the world...?

Holy shit! !
What it is!
hum...

The gods noticed that Li Yu had somehow acquired a cylindrical sword in his hand...

The sword was jet black, covered with crimson patterns, and its three cylindrical blades were spinning wildly!

That's not the point. The point is!

The gods truly sensed a power over the world emanating from this sword…

This is a conceptual power, mysterious and profound...

In short, this is indeed a sword powerful enough to cut through the world!

Meanwhile, the Queen Mother of the West and the Jade Emperor were also terrified...

Holy crap... Where did this freak come from? How does he have such a powerful artifact?!

Now no one dared to laugh at Li Yu's words about recreating the world.

It's hard to say whether having this divine artifact is enough to reopen the heavens and earth. But judging from the power the opponent has displayed, given his level of magical power, if he were to unleash this artifact at full strength, reopening the Heavenly Court would be no problem at all...

Everyone was terrified...

"Stop! Young friend, please hold your hand!"

At that moment, a voice came from outside the Lingxiao Palace.

Everyone looked in the direction of the sound and saw an old man in a Taoist robe with white hair and beard running over from outside the Lingxiao Palace.

"Ouch~ This is exhausting, I'm so old!"

The old Taoist priest jogged into the Lingxiao Palace, panting, and said, "Young friend, please don't be angry. Let's talk things out. Everything can be discussed."

The old Taoist priest approached Li Yu with a smile and said, "Please give me some face, young friend. The matter of the Dragon King of the East Sea is negotiable. It's just a small matter; why make such a fuss?"

"Yes, yes, yes! It's negotiable! It's negotiable! Lao Jun, quickly make him put down the sword! Everything is negotiable!"

The Jade Emperor was also intimidated at this point. The other party was simply inhuman, actually bringing out such a divine artifact for a mere East Sea Dragon King.

You can't help but back down. You're talking about nuclear weapons as a topic of conversation for the sake of a village official. Is that something a human being would do?

Taishang Laojun
Race: Fairy
Health Level: 13
Combat Power Level: 11
Li Yu was immediately drawn to the old Taoist priest when he appeared. Although the old man looked ordinary, Li Yu instinctively felt that the old man posed a threat to him.

After sending over an assessment report and seeing the old man's information, Li Yu understood.

It was Laozi, the old Taoist priest who always seemed like a nice guy to everyone.

He may appear plain on the outside, but he is actually a return to simplicity and authenticity. As the head of the Three Pure Ones, how could he be an ordinary deity?

Sure enough, seeing that level eleven combat power, Li Yu understood the strength of this world's top powerhouse.

It is conceivable that other figures such as Yuanshi Tianzun possessed similar power, placing them on the same level.

And don't be fooled by the fact that Laozi's strength seems to be slightly inferior to Li Yu's.

But they don't cultivate the way of combat; and immortals usually rely on magical treasures and spells to fight.

Laozi has neither of these two things.

"Since it's Laozi who spoke, I'll give you face."

Li Yu smiled as he looked at Laozi, then unleashed the energy of the Guai Li Sword in his hand with a loud bang, causing a violent gust of wind in the Lingxiao Palace.

Marshal Tianpeng's "unconscious" body was blown by the strong wind and rolled several times into the distance.

They were far from the center of the incident.

"Oh dear~~ Well then, this old Taoist priest thanks you very much, young friend~"

Laozi, holding a whisk in his hand, cupped his hands in a respectful gesture to Li Yu and smiled.

"Alas~ Your Majesty~" Then Laozi turned to the Jade Emperor above and said, "In my opinion, the Dragon King of the East Sea is indeed at fault, but when the demons broke the seal, he also organized the East Sea Dragon Clan to delay most of the demon kings."

"Well, the outcome was good overall. All the demon kings were defeated, and no major disaster was caused. I think we should just let it go."

"Cough cough cough..."

The Queen Mother coughed twice and echoed Laozi's words, "Your Majesty, I also think Laozi is absolutely right. Since no serious mistake has been made, why not just let it go? This will also show Your Majesty's magnanimity and demonstrate your benevolence."

"This..." The Jade Emperor feigned difficulty and pondered for a moment, then nodded and said in a pretentious manner, "Since that's the case, then let's pardon the old Dragon King's crimes~ As for Li Yu, he has rendered meritorious service in slaying the demon, so he shall be rewarded with a pot of golden pills, three celestial treasures, one hundred luminous pearls from the East Sea, ten top-grade peaches of immortality, and one hundred mid-grade peaches of immortality..."

"Your Majesty is wise!"

The gods and immortals hurriedly bowed to the Jade Emperor to offer their congratulations.

"Hahaha...Your Majesty is wise!"

Laozi chuckled and bowed to the Jade Emperor, saying...

"They're really shameless... They may not have any other skills, but their ability to change their expressions is truly masterful..." Li Yu looked at the Jade Emperor and the Queen Mother speechlessly.

And the gods here are all acting masters.

"Young friend, are you satisfied with this outcome?"

Laozi turned to Li Yu and asked.

"It's alright~ It wasn't a big deal to begin with, why make it so complicated~"

Li Yu said nonchalantly, then added, "As for rewards or anything like that, I don't care. I don't need them. I don't lack anything like that."

puff……

a little……

The gods and immortals wondered if Li Yu had some misunderstanding about this point.

That's a whole gourd full of golden pills! And peaches of immortality! Those are something you can't get anywhere else except at the Queen Mother of the West's Peach Banquet, and there are ten top-grade ones! Even at the Peach Banquet, not everyone can get a top-grade peach!

Ignoring the envious, jealous, and hateful gazes of the gods and the Jade Emperor's liver-colored face.

Li Yu patted the Dragon King of the East Sea on the shoulder: "Let's go~"

Whoosh!
The two of them vanished from the Lingxiao Palace.

"Ah~"

Laozi sighed and shook his head: "In that case, this old Daoist will take his leave."

"Laojun~ Why didn't you capture him when you were so close to him~" After Li Yu left, the Queen Mother immediately resumed her aloof and superior demeanor.

"Hehehe... It's not that this old Taoist priest doesn't want to, but that I'm powerless to help."

Lao Tzu shook his head and sighed.

"How is this possible... that his strength is comparable to yours!?"

The Queen Mother was shocked. She had thought that Li Yu was only relying on the Guaili Sword.

Even if they are more powerful than other heavenly soldiers and generals, are they still comparable to these celestial beings?
Aside from the ancient goddess Nuwa, the strongest beings in the Three Realms today are none other than the Three Pure Ones of the East and Jieyin and Zhunti of the Western Sect.

All other deities are at the lower level; apart from these five, none of the other immortals or Buddhas have broken through to level ten or higher.

Is it...

The Jade Emperor and the Queen Mother stared at Laozi in disbelief...

“That’s right. This kid is on the same level as the five of us, and even slightly stronger than me. Judging from the power he’s shown so far, I’m afraid only my junior brother Tongtian can contend with him…”

"After all, I, an old Taoist, am not a practitioner of the way of killing."

Laozi stroked his beard and continued, "If the opponent also takes that divine weapon into account, I'm afraid the five of us are no match for him..."

There's something Lao Tzu didn't say: it's still unknown whether Li Yu's current performance represents his full strength.

"What should we do from now on?"

The Jade Emperor anxiously asked Laozi, "Sigh~ I think that person is someone who fears neither heaven nor earth; it's best to avoid provoking him in the future~"

Laozi shook his head, then flicked his whisk and turned to walk towards his Tushita Palace...

Li Yu led the Dragon King of the East Sea directly back to the Dragon Palace of the East Sea.

Ao Guang, the Dragon King of the East Sea, felt a blur before his eyes, and when he came to his senses, he was already at the bottom of the East Sea Dragon Palace.

"Mr. Li Yu's methods are truly unfathomable, Xiao Long is truly impressed!"

Ao Guang said to Li Yu, "If it weren't for Mr. Li Yu's righteous words, I'm afraid I would have had to go to the Dragon Slaughtering Platform. I thank you in advance, Mr. Li Yu!"

After saying this, Ao Guang bowed deeply to Li Yu: "In the future, whenever Mr. Li Yu needs my help, please feel free to ask. I will go through fire and water without batting an eye!"

"It's nothing, it's nothing~" Li Yu waved his hand: "It's a small matter. I just can't stand that Jade Emperor. He sits on top all day and does nothing, but when something goes wrong, he tries to shift the blame..."

Li Yu went on and on, listing all the Jade Emperor's faults, while the old Dragon King listened with great embarrassment.

Li Yu was unrestrained and could say whatever he wanted because of his strength, but Ao Guang was not. So, Li Yu could only talk and Ao Guang could only listen.

"Hey ho ho~ You guys are back~"

At this moment, Taiyi Zhenren and Shen Gongbao walked over from the side.

"Hmm~?" Li Yu glanced at the two of them. "You're still here?"

Hehehe~ I've been waiting for you~

Taiyi Zhenren rubbed his hands together and chuckled lewdly, "How's it going? The Jade Emperor didn't give you any trouble, did he? How did things go?"

"It's okay~"

Li Yu nodded without elaborating, but instead asked, "How long have we been up there?"

"It's been...it's been...four days already~"

As the saying goes, a day in heaven is a year on earth. Li Yu and his companions spent only a short time in heaven, but four days had already passed on earth.

"Nezha hasn't returned yet?"

"No~ Nezha went out with Ao Bing and hasn't come back yet."

"Hmm~" Li Yu thought for a moment, resting his chin on his hand, "In that case, I'll go out and take a look~"

Nezha, along with Ao Bing, was ordered by Li Yu to go to Mount Hua to investigate the matter of Yang Jian and his sister.

The fact that he hasn't returned yet means either the investigation into Nezha hasn't progressed, or he's gotten involved in some troublesome incident.

Based on Li Yu's assessment of Nezha's personality, the latter possibility was more likely.

Therefore, Li Yu decided to go and see for himself.

After bidding farewell to the Dragon King of the East Sea and Taiyi Zhenren, Li Yu's figure flashed and disappeared.

As Li Yu predicted, things were indeed as Nezha had.

This guy is now involved in Yang Jian's troubles with Ao Bing.

"That damned crow~ I'll roast him one of these days!"

In a mountain cave, Nezha, along with Ao Bing and Yang Jian, a brother and sister, were hiding.

The fire roared and blazed, while Nezha sat to one side, cursing fiercely.

The other three sat silently to one side.

"I wonder if Master has returned yet~" Nezha muttered to himself idly as he threw a piece of firewood into the fire.

"By the way, Brother Nezha, who is your master?"

Beside him, Yang Jian, who had a face that looked remarkably like Jiao Enjun's, asked Nezha a question.

"My master??" Upon hearing this, Nezha's eyes lit up and he began to talk to Yang Jian about Li Yu.

"My master is incredibly powerful. If he were here, do you think he would dare to lay a hand on a mere dead crow?"

"Let's scatter his ashes!"

Nezha said, gesturing wildly.

His smugness made Yang Chan laugh.

"If you ask me, Brother Yang Jian, you'd better not go looking for that Jade Cauldron Immortal."

Nezha continued, "Why don't you come back with me and become my master's apprentice to learn skills? It's much more reliable than going to find some Jade Cauldron Immortal!"

"It's said that the Jade Cauldron Immortal is a disciple of the Primordial Celestial Venerable, and he's incredibly capable!"

Yang Chan stretched out her two small, white hands to warm them by the fire, and spoke to Nezha.

"Hey~ that's it?"

Nezha shook his head: "I also know a disciple of Yuanshi Tianzun, named Taiyi Zhenren, but he's not as capable as me~ and he's incredibly unreliable. I think Yuding Zhenren probably isn't much better either~"

Just then... a voice suddenly came from outside the cave: "Yang Jian! Yang Chan! Why don't you come out and surrender!"

"Damn it! That damned crow is here again!"

Nezha jumped up in an instant!

"Is this grandson born in the Year of the Dog?"

With a wave of his hand, Nezha summoned the Fire-Tipped Spear.

"Further words are useless. Since they've come looking for us, let's fight!"

Ao Bing, holding his twin hammers, spoke calmly.

"Brother Yang Jian! Sister Yang Chan~ Be careful in the cave, we're going to deal with that damned crow!"

Nezha gave Yang Jian and the other person a few words of advice, then exchanged a glance with Ao Bing and nodded.

Then they rushed out at the same time.

Outside the cave, the Heavenly Soldiers and Generals led by the Great Golden Crow and the Second Golden Crow had completely surrounded the entrance.

As soon as Nezha and Ao Bing appeared, they were surrounded by heavenly soldiers and generals.

"As expected, it's you two monsters again!"

The Great Golden Crow frowned and said in a harsh voice.

"Heh~ You call others monsters, but aren't you a bird yourself?"

Nezha slammed his Fire-Tipped Spear on the ground, put his hands on his hips, and said, "To be honest, I also have a bird here, but I don't know if it's related to you or not~"

"Stinky brat!"

The Great Golden Crow turned pale with anger at Nezha.

This brat who appeared out of nowhere is so infuriating with his words, yet he's incredibly powerful. Although his cultivation level is lower than mine, he has a lot of treasures on him.

The Great Golden Crow, after being severely punished by Li Yu in the sky, was rescued and awakened.

His injuries weren't serious to begin with, and as soon as he woke up, he received a report from his subordinates in the mortal realm that they had discovered traces of Yang Jian and his sister.

If you can't afford to offend them, can't you at least avoid them?

With this in mind, the Great Golden Crow descended to the mortal realm early on, wanting to avoid seeing or being bothered by the situation. Since it couldn't defeat the opponent, it might as well back down. So, two days ago, the Great Golden Crow arrived in the human world.

After personally confirming that Yang Jian and his sister were indeed still alive, he prepared to capture them himself.

But then two little devils suddenly appeared out of nowhere.

Despite their young age, their cultivation was quite high. The two of them joined forces and fought to a standstill against him and a group of heavenly soldiers and generals, managing to rescue Yang Jian and his sister.

So the Great Golden Crow sent a message directly to its younger brother, the Second Golden Crow, to come and help.

Looking at the troops around him, the Great Golden Crow felt that this wave was in the bag.

Once I've captured Yang Jian and his sister, I'll go back to Heaven and have a good drink.

Take a deep breath, and the Golden Crow waves its hand!

A divine sword radiating the fire of the sun appeared in his hand, along with a golden wheel.

"You fiend! No matter how eloquent you are, it's useless. Today, I will make sure you can't escape!"

"Oh ho? I wondered who was bragging here. It turns out to be the golden bird I flicked on the head and sent flying. What's this, having people surround my disciple today? Are you trying to cause trouble?"

Suddenly, a voice that a golden crow never wanted to hear entered its ears...
