Shop of All Worlds: The First Customer Princess Jinyang
Chapter 274 Bet
Chenxiang held the Precious Lotus Lantern tightly in his hand, and the lamp emitted a soft but firm light, reflecting the determination on his face.
With this magic lamp in his hand, he no longer had any fear of Erlang Shen.
"Erlang Shen, today I will rid the world of you, the evil that brings disaster to the world, on behalf of the Three Realms!"
His voice was clear, and with the fearlessness and justice of a young man, he recited the mysterious formula of the Precious Lotus Lantern.
The Precious Lotus Lantern seemed to be summoned and flew lightly from his palm, like a shining star, straight into the sky.
"Erlang Shen, prepare to die!"
As Chenxiang roared, the Precious Lotus Lantern burst out with tremendous energy, sweeping towards Yang Jian like a surging wave.
Upon seeing this, Yang Jian's expression froze and he quickly put away the three-pointed, double-edged sword in his hand. The third eye on his forehead suddenly opened, emitting a dazzling light.
The two rays of light collided violently in the air, like two giant dragons fighting in the air, causing waves of energy ripples.
Gradually, beads of sweat appeared on Yang Jian's forehead, and his expression became more and more solemn.
suddenly!
“Ah——” Yang Jian shouted loudly. The armor on his body could not bear the weight and was torn apart with a “swish”.
The powerful impact caused him to fly backwards like a kite with a broken string, and he fell heavily to the ground. A trickle of blood slowly flowed from the third eye on his forehead.
"Master, are you okay!?"
Roaring Sky Dog rushed over anxiously and quickly supported the staggering Yang Jian.
As soon as he was helped up, Yang Jian couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of blood. The bright red bloodstains looked particularly glaring on the white clouds.
Chenxiang was merciless. He quickly put away the Precious Lotus Lantern, picked up the axe in his hand, and pounced on Yang Jian like a tiger.
"Erlang Shen, give me your life!"
He raised the axe high and chopped it down fiercely with a sharp sound.
Just when the axe was about to fall on Yang Jian, the Queen Mother's Jade Ruyi flashed and turned into a long sword with a cold glow, flying towards Chenxiang like a meteor.
Chenxiang was shocked and had no choice but to temporarily give up the idea of killing Yang Jian. He swung his axe to block the sword.
The Queen Mother's Jade Ruyi is the most precious treasure in heaven, how can it be an ordinary item?
The moment Chenxiang's axe and sword touched, a powerful recoil force came, which made his arm numb.
Fortunately, although the axe in his hand was the one that Taishang Laojun used to chop wood in the past, it was also a divine weapon of extremely high grade, which could barely withstand this fierce attack.
The long sword transformed by Yu Ruyi continued to attack without slowing down, and once again approached Chenxiang like a spirit snake.
Chenxiang shook his numb arms, quickly took out the Precious Lotus Lantern, muttered something, and used all his strength to activate the magic power of the Precious Lotus Lantern.
The Precious Lotus Lantern shone brightly, forming a solid barrier in front of him.
"Bang——" The long sword hit the barrier hard, making a dull loud noise. The powerful impact force made the surrounding air tremble.
Chenxiang secretly breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that the sword transformed by Yu Ruyi was successfully blocked.
Upon seeing this, a hint of viciousness flashed in the Queen Mother's eyes. She changed her mind and controlled the sword to shuttle through the crowd like a ghost, aiming directly at Xiao Sizi who was fighting fiercely with the heavenly soldiers and generals.
At this time, Xiao Sizi was concentrating on fighting with the heavenly soldiers and generals. Every time she defeated a heavenly soldier, she counted clearly:
"Ninety-eight... ninety-nine..."
She was so immersed in the rhythm of the battle that she didn't notice the deadly sword approaching silently.
"Sizi, be careful!"
The exclamations of Chenxiang, Sun Wukong, Zhu Bajie and Tang Seng rang out almost at the same time.
They were extremely anxious and rushed towards Xiao Sizi, trying to stop the long sword from stabbing at him.
However, the heavenly soldiers and generals as well as the twenty-eight constellations tried their best to stop them, making it difficult for them to move forward.
Just as the sword was about to pierce little Sizi, the Queen Mother's mouth curled up slightly, revealing a smug smile.
But at this moment, a golden light flashed, and a golden iron ring hit the sword like lightning.
"Clang——" The long sword was deflected and stabbed an unlucky heavenly soldier.
The Queen Mother looked at the golden iron ring hovering in the air in shock. Her face turned pale in an instant and she shouted angrily:
"Nezha, what are you doing!?"
Nezha snorted coldly, his eyes full of disdain:
"What's it to you what I do?"
"As the Queen Mother, you actually carried out a sneak attack. This is truly despicable!"
The Queen Mother opened her mouth and wanted to refute, but she was speechless and couldn't find the right words.
Upon seeing this, the Jade Emperor sighed helplessly, his voice strong and majestic:
"Stop it all!"
His voice resounded through the heavens like a huge bell, and everyone present could hear it clearly.
However, Sun Wukong and others just looked at him coldly and started fighting with the heavenly soldiers and generals again. The smoke of the battle did not dissipate because of the Jade Emperor's order.
Mount Emei.
Shengfo Cave.
Yu Shu said with lingering fear:
"Sir, you really scared me to death just now!"
Her heart was still pounding as she recalled the thrilling scene where the long sword almost pierced Xiao Sizi.
But seeing Ye Jiangnan looked calm, she also pretended to be calm.
Ye Jiangnan patted her shoulder gently and said calmly:
"Don't worry, I've left some self-defense tips on the three little guys, so they won't get into trouble that easily."
Yu Shu nodded, and her tense mood finally relaxed a little.
In the Heavenly Palace, the Jade Emperor saw that the crowd had no intention of stopping, so he spoke again, his voice stronger than before, with unquestionable majesty:
"stop!"
This time, everyone felt the Jade Emperor's anger, slowly stopped, and returned to their teams.
Those who supported Chenxiang stood behind Xiao Sizi, forming a solid line of defense.
Those who did not support Chenxiang stood on both sides of the Jade Emperor and the Queen Mother, and the atmosphere was tense.
Yang Jian was supported by the Meishan brothers. His face was as pale as paper and he looked at Chenxiang with hatred.
Sun Wukong rolled his eyes and said with a playful smile:
"Hey, Jade Emperor, why are you asking everyone to stop for no reason?"
In fact, Sun Wukong didn't want to stop, but he had to stop because he felt that the Jade Emperor had used powerful magic power.
The Jade Emperor got angry when he saw Sun Wukong and snorted coldly:
"Could it be that you really want to tear my heaven into pieces?"
Sun Wukong waved his hands quickly, with a smile on his face:
"How can that be possible? We don't have that ability!"
As he spoke, he pointed at a few damaged areas and argued:
"Look, these, those, and over there, they were all made by the Queen Mother."
"We only hurt people, we don't destroy things!"
Upon hearing this, the Jade Emperor's face became even darker. He looked at the Queen Mother and met her embarrassed expression.
The Jade Emperor was speechless for a while, sighed helplessly, and turned to Chenxiang and asked:
"Chenxiang, since you want us to release your mother, then..."
Before the Jade Emperor could finish his words, the Queen Mother immediately coughed and signaled him to stop.
The Queen Mother naturally understood what the Jade Emperor meant. He just wanted to agree to Chenxiang's request to release his mother.
She whispered:
"Your Majesty, you can't agree to Chenxiang so easily."
"You still call this easy?!"
The Jade Emperor almost cried out, things have gotten to this point, how could it be easy?
The Queen Mother continued in a low voice:
"What I mean is, if we agree to Chenxiang, then if there are gods who secretly come down to earth to marry and have children with mortals, we will lock them up, then make a scene like this in the Heavenly Palace, and then let them go?"
"Your Majesty, this hole cannot be opened!"
"If there's a first time, there'll be a second time. We can't set this precedent!"
After hearing this, the Jade Emperor fell silent. The Queen Mother's words did make sense. Once this hole was opened, the consequences would be disastrous. "What should we do?"
The Jade Emperor asked the Queen Mother helplessly.
The Jade Emperor and Queen Mother were discussing in low voices, while Little Sizi was looking at them with confusion on his face.
"What are they whispering about?"
Little Sizi pouted and looked unhappy.
"Who knows!"
Ying Yinman shrugged.
"He definitely has no good intentions!"
Zhu Wanqing curled her lips.
Sun Wukong came close to Chenxiang and whispered:
"Chenxiang, I saw that the Jade Emperor was about to agree to release your mother, but was stopped by the Queen Mother."
Chen Xiang snorted coldly and said through gritted teeth:
"If that's the case, I'm going to kill the Queen Mother!"
Nezha's eyes lit up and he said excitedly:
"Okay, Chenxiang!"
"I have disliked the Queen Mother for a long time. If you want to kill her, count me in as one!"
Sun Wukong rolled his eyes helplessly:
"Hey, do you two really think that the Queen Mother is so easy to kill?"
"Let's not talk about how strong she is. Just based on her status in the Heavenly Court, have you thought about the consequences of killing her?"
Chenxiang and Nezha looked at Sun Wukong with confusion.
Sun Wukong continued to explain:
"If you kill the Queen Mother, not only will the Jade Emperor not let your mother go, he will also send people to kill both of you!"
"This is still considered light. Once the Queen Mother dies, the world will surely fall into disaster."
"She is in charge of many affairs of the Heavenly Palace. Once she dies, the three realms will be in chaos."
"One day in heaven is one year on earth. If no one takes over and handles those affairs as soon as possible, the Three Realms will be in such chaos that it is unimaginable."
"What I just said is only part of it. If you really count them in detail, there are many more troubles."
"So, don't be stupid, both of you. Just think about it, but don't really do it!"
Chenxiang and Nezha looked at each other, nodded, and understood the seriousness of the matter.
In front of Yaochi, the Queen Mother expressed her thoughts:
"Didn't Chenxiang want to save his mother?"
"Then let him go and save it."
After hearing this, the Jade Emperor was bewildered. Wasn’t Chenxiang clamoring to save his mother?
"Empress, what do you mean..."
The Jade Emperor asked doubtfully.
The Queen Mother explained:
"What I mean is, let Chenxiang go to Huashan alone to save his mother."
"We'll pretend to make a bet with him and set a time limit."
"If he can't rescue his mother within the specified time, it's his own fault!"
"If we rescue him, our Heavenly Court won't suffer any loss and we can save face."
"What do you think of this idea?"
After hearing this, the Jade Emperor's eyes lit up:
"What a great idea! Let's do it!"
The Jade Emperor quickly said to Chenxiang:
"Chenxiang, how about we make a bet?"
Before Chenxiang could speak, Xiao Sizi shouted:
"No gambling!"
The Jade Emperor looked at Xiao Sizi helplessly:
"Little kid, you haven't even heard how to gamble, what the stakes are, why don't you gamble?"
Xiao Sizi crossed his arms and refuted confidently:
"Gambling is harmful!"
"Uncle Liu always gambled with my grandfather and lost so much money that he almost lost all his pants."
The Jade Emperor was choked by Xiao Sizi's words and was speechless for a moment, with an embarrassed expression on his face.
He frowned slightly, looking at this quirky little baby. He felt helpless, yet also thought that the child was so innocent and cute.
"Little kid, this is not the same as gambling. I'm not asking you to gamble and have fun like the people in the market."
The Jade Emperor tried his best to keep his tone gentle and explained patiently.
"This is a matter concerning your apprentice Chenxiang's rescue of his mother. If we can take this opportunity to help him rescue his mother, wouldn't it be a good thing?"
Little Sizi tilted his head and blinked his big eyes, as if thinking about the truth of what the Jade Emperor said.
She glanced secretly at Chenxiang and saw that Chenxiang frowned slightly, as if weighing the pros and cons.
"Chenxiang, what do you think?"
Little Sizi tugged at the corner of Chenxiang's clothes and asked softly.
Chen Xiang pondered for a moment and said:
"Master, if I don't agree to this bet, they will definitely not let mother go easily."
"Now this may be an opportunity, I am willing to give it a try."
Xiao Sizi bit her lip, hesitated for a moment, and finally nodded:
"Well, Chenxiang, you must be careful."
Chenxiang gently touched Xiao Sizi's head, then looked up at the Jade Emperor and said firmly:
"Jade Emperor, I agree to make a bet with you."
"But if I rescue my mother within the specified time limit, you must keep your promise and stop making things difficult for us."
The Jade Emperor nodded and said:
"Okay, let's limit it to three months."
"If you can rescue your mother from Mount Hua within three months, the Heavenly Court will no longer pursue this matter and will restore your mother's freedom."
The Queen Mother nodded slightly, with a barely perceptible hint of pride in her eyes.
She thought to herself, Huashan is protected by the Qiankun Bowl, and how could Chenxiang, a young boy, rescue his mother in just three months even with the help of the Precious Lotus Lantern?
Chenxiang didn't say anything else and turned around to leave.
At this time, Sun Wukong came up, patted him on the shoulder and said:
"Chenxiang, I, Old Sun, will go with you."
Zhu Bajie also came over and said with a grin:
"I, Old Pig, will go too. Maybe I can find something delicious to eat then."
Chenxiang looked at them, and a warm feeling surged in his heart:
"Thank you both very much."
When Xiao Sizi heard that they were going, he became excited and said quickly:
"I want to go too. I want to help Chenxiang save his mother!"
Ying Yinman and Zhu Wanqing also expressed their desire to go together.
Just as Chenxiang was about to refuse, Xiao Sizi took his hand and said:
"Chenxiang, let us go together. We can help."
Looking at the expectant eyes of his three masters, Chenxiang couldn't bear to refuse, so he nodded and agreed.
After some discussion, everyone prepared to set off for Mount Hua.
Just as they were about to leave Heaven, Nezha suddenly stood up and said:
"I will go with you, too."
"The Queen Mother is acting unfairly. I want to see if Chenxiang can successfully rescue his mother."
Chen Xiang looked at Nezha and nodded slightly:
"Thank you, Brother Nezha."
So, Chenxiang, Sun Wukong, Zhu Bajie, Xiao Sizi, Ying Yinman, Zhu Wanqing and Nezha set out towards Huashan in a mighty procession. (End of this chapter)
