Chapter 97: Leaving Half of the Lovesickness on the Avenue
“Not really, Your Majesty!” Taishang Laojun stood up and said with a dark face: “Tianpeng was born into a pig by mistake, and now he has become a pig demon in the mortal world. If he returns to Xuandu Daochang... it’s really a bit embarrassing!”

Like Buddhism, the Heavenly Palace has also undergone several reshuffles.

The most recent one was the battle between the new gods who emerged from the Battle of the Gods and a group of old gods.

And Marshal Tianpeng was one of the victims.

Originally born into an orthodox Xuanmen family and a disciple of Master Xuandu, he had a high position and power. However, because of a drunken streak, he was sent down to the mortal world and reborn as a pig.

The power is gone, the status is gone, and the original divinity is gone.

But even so, the Jade Emperor did not intend to let him go, and still ordered him to return to the "Xuan Du Taoist Temple" and lead the Taoist sect to fight against the human court. This was obviously intended to cause trouble.

Therefore, Taishang Laojun spoke up and tried to stop it.

But he is just Laojun, not the saint himself.

The Jade Emperor did not give him face, shook his head and said: "What's wrong with being a pig? After all, he is my Marshal Tianpeng. As long as he is still capable, it's fine. Yang Jian, go and convey the order quickly!"

Upon hearing this, Yang Jian received the order and went down to the mortal world with the Jade Emperor's decree.

We came to a place called "Gaolaozhuang" in the desert of the world.

It is located between Xiniuhezhou and Nanzhanbuzhou, to the west of Wuzhi Mountain. Unlike the fertile grasslands on the edge of Dongshengshenzhou, Xiniuhezhou is barren, and its border is a vast desert.

Gao Village is located in the desert and was founded by a group of hunters who make a living by eliminating demons.

Two hundred years ago, Marshal Tianpeng followed the order of the Jade Emperor to go down to the mortal world to eliminate demons.

However, he was plotted against by the gods in heaven, leaving him with ties in the mortal world that he was unwilling to break. In addition, he molested Chang'e while drunk, and was cast down to the mortal world and turned into a pig demon.

But even so, his magic power is still there.

The Nine-toothed Rake is a weapon made by Taishang Laojun himself. It is of the same level as the Golden Cudgel. If the latter had not been integrated with some merits when Dayu was controlling the floods and possessed the power of humanity, it would not be comparable to the Nine-toothed Rake!
"Hey, God of Justice, what madness brings you here?" the pig-headed man sneered.

He emphasized the word "crazy" in his words.

It means that Yang Jian went crazy and came to find him.

"I am here to pass on the Jade Emperor's order!"

Yang Jian looked at Marshal Tianpeng who had become a pig demon, and guilt appeared on his face - when he was still young, Tianpeng had protected him and his sister Yang Chan, and he was a rare kind-hearted god in the Three Realms.

He was also in a high position and had great power, being the second most important person in Heaven at that time.

However, after the Battle of the Gods, the Jade Emperor became more powerful and began to exclude him.

In order to gain the power of the Tianhe navy, the gods also set a trap for him.

First he made him lose his Nine-toothed Rake, then he pretended to be Yang Jian to assassinate him. This made Tianpeng so angry that he rushed to the Temple of Justice and smashed all the incarnations of Yang Jian that were working there.

Later, the gods took advantage of the opportunity to completely strip him of his divinity, cutting off his chance of regaining his position as Marshal Tianpeng.

Yes, cut off the opportunity.

Even though he was banished to the mortal world for teasing Chang'e, he was still the powerful Marshal Tianpeng. Just like the Eight Immortals who reincarnated and started over after making mistakes, the throne of the god was still his.

As long as he doesn't die, no one else can hope to become Marshal Tianpeng.

But the gods plotted to have him destroy the Temple of Justice, and used Yang Jian to completely destroy his divinity.

At this point, the great Marshal Tianpeng had completely turned into a demon.

"No, I'm no longer a god, and the Jade Emperor has no right to order me around!" Tianpeng said.

This reaction was within Yang Jian's expectations. Among all the gods in heaven, Tianpeng's magic power was actually counted, and his combat power was even more amazing. He was once ranked first in heaven. Although it was an ancient heaven with few people, it was still extraordinary, otherwise he would not have been a marshal.

But later, tired of the officialdom and the impure heaven, he began to hide his shortcomings.

He looks like he can't beat anyone.

But Yang Jian knew that this was a being who could cross the Weak Water just by relying on his physical strength! In the past, Nezha was severely damaged by the Weak Water, and Yang Jian had also suffered from it.

The only disciple of the Human Religion, and the direct disciple of Xuandu, the eldest brother of the three religions.

The direct disciple of the Supreme Sage.

He has learned the art of hiding one's shortcomings thoroughly, and he is very clear about it.

"I have brought the imperial edict. It is up to you to decide whether to go or not." Yang Jian suddenly smiled and said casually, "But I heard that the current emperor is quite interesting. He actually issued a law that allows all creatures with spirits that can transform into human form to become the legal spouse of a person, regardless of whether they are monsters or ghosts, or even a stone or a weapon!"

After saying this, he threw down the imperial edict, turned around and left.

Only Tianpeng was left standing there, deep in thought, as if recalling the past rescue efforts.

Whispering, "She is not an illusion, nor is she a disaster!"

The next moment, a momentum that was no less powerful than Yang Jian's burst out, scaring all the demons within a thousand miles away and causing them to flee in all directions. The chain reaction even formed a tide of demons and beasts.

Immediately afterwards, the canopy split into two.

The pig's body turned into a god, escaped into the ancestral hall of Gao Laozhuang, and turned into a stone statue.

Put up a magical barrier to protect the entire Gaojiazhuang.

The handsome Tianpeng human body picked up the Nine-toothed Rake and rode on the clouds to the Xuandu Dojo in Dongsheng Shenzhou, saying as he walked: "I know you like pigs, but you like me more. I turned into a pig just to commemorate the past with you. But now, I don't want to reminisce. Screw my destiny!"

If I can't be with you, I would rather live a short life like an ordinary person.

"Children of Xuandu Dojo, your ancestor is back!"

After arriving at the Taoist temple, as soon as Tianpeng's Nine-toothed Rake flashed, without revealing his identity, everyone knew that it was their second-generation ancestor "Marshal Tianpeng" who had returned.

"Grandmaster, you are finally back!"

"We have all received news that the Jade Emperor has re-employed you. As long as you can wipe out the human court, your reinstatement will be just around the corner!"

"Fuck you!"

"Brothers, let's fight for our honor and let those bastards in the Heaven Court know that my Xuandu Dojo is not to be bullied!"

Looking at his disciples' high morale, Tianpeng felt a sense of guilt for no reason, and always wondered if the approach he had chosen might go against his ancestors.

Should we leave some incense for the sect?

However, when he looked up, what he saw was not the mountain gate, but a "person".

"Master!"

"There are two ways in Taoism. One is the way of heaven and the way of the great way, which means destiny. But the other is the way of 'treason'. Just do whatever you want with confidence!"

After he finished speaking, the figure disappeared, and the scene before his eyes turned back into the mountain gate.

However, Tian Peng's originally hesitant face no longer had any hesitation, and he smiled and said to everyone: "My position as Marshal Tian Peng was given to me by someone else before, so it was taken away. But now, I want to take it myself!"

After that, he raised the Nine-toothed Rake and said, "Form a formation! Nine bends of the Milky Way, target... Jade Emperor Peak!"
