Journey to the West: We're too early, Nezha is only seven years old.
Chapter 47 Meeting
When Nezha heard Zhou Xiaobai apologize, he assumed it was because Zhou Xiaobai had failed to save him five years ago.
He didn't know that Zhou Xiaobai's apology was actually for Nezha's physical body.
Seeing the body Nezha is using now, if he hadn't been trapped in the Dragon Palace and had gone to the Golden Light Cave earlier, perhaps Nezha's physical body could have been restored.
In this apology, there was also the reason why Zhou Xiaobai used Nezha's physical body and refined it into the Wisdom Lamp Dharma Body Demon Child.
This feeling of guilt is indescribable and can only be expressed through this apology.
"Don't say sorry, come with me into the city to see Uncle Jiang!" At this moment, the city gate opened, and Nezha pulled Zhou Xiaobai up and said.
With Nezha leading the way, the gatekeepers no longer dared to stop them.
"Little White, didn't I tell you to stay in the East Sea Dragon Palace?" Nezha asked softly as he walked through the city gate and saw that there was no one else around.
"I received the summons from Prime Minister Jiang for the Chan Sect, which is why I rushed over from the East Sea!" Zhou Xiaobai replied.
"I forgot to take back the Beast Taming Talisman!" Nezha immediately realized the crucial point and couldn't help but feel annoyed.
With a wave of his hand, he retrieved the beast-taming talisman that was fixed in Zhou Xiaobai's soul.
His action startled Zhou Xiaobai. Zhou Xiaobai had imagined what it would be like to meet Nezha, but he never expected that Nezha would take back the Beast Taming Talisman on the very first day they met.
Although the beast-taming talisman had no binding effect on him, Nezha took it back without saying a word, which shows that Nezha really regarded him as a friend.
"I used the Beast Taming Talisman for your safety back then. It's very unsafe for a demon to be without a lineage. Now that you are the Fourth Prince of the East Sea, you no longer need this Beast Taming Talisman! Who knew that this Beast Taming Talisman would lead you into the Great Tribulation? From now on, you will stay by my side!" Nezha casually scattered the Beast Taming Talisman and shook his head as he spoke.
"Don't worry about me, the True Man has bestowed upon me a postnatal spiritual treasure!" Zhou Xiaobai said with a smile, taking out the 'Heaven-Turning Seal (Imitation)'.
When Nezha saw the "Heaven-Turning Seal (Imitation)," he became even more worried. If his master, Taiyi Zhenren, truly wanted to protect Zhou Xiaobai, he would not have bestowed an offensive spiritual treasure, but rather a defensive one.
"When you see Uncle Jiang, you should call him Uncle Jiang just like I do. You are my brother!" Nezha instructed again as they arrived outside Jiang Ziya's tent.
This is also why he took back the Beast Taming Talisman. With the Beast Taming Talisman on him, his status in the Chan Sect would be that of a lowly spirit pet.
Without the Beast Taming Talisman, and given his status as the Fourth Prince of the East Sea Dragon Palace, along with the treasure bestowed by Taiyi Zhenren and his relationship with Nezha, he could barely be considered a member of the Chan Sect.
In particular, Zhou Xiaobai received the Dao decree from Jiang Ziya, which was issued by Jiang Ziya on behalf of Yuanshi Tianzun. The fact that Zhou Xiaobai was able to receive this Dao decree means that Yuanshi Tianzun recognized Zhou Xiaobai's identity as a member of the Chan Sect.
Of course, Zhou Xiaobai's identity as a member of the Chan Sect became quite awkward after losing the Beast Taming Talisman in his soul; he did not have a clear position within the Chan Sect.
Nezha sent someone in to announce their arrival, and soon someone invited Nezha and Zhou Xiaobai inside.
"Nezha greets his martial uncle!" Nezha stepped forward, clasped his hands in greeting, and then turned to pull Zhou Xiaobai over, saying, "This is Xiaobai, the fourth prince of the East Sea Dragon Palace, who has been invited to come and lend his assistance!"
"Greetings, Uncle-Master!" Zhou Xiaobai said, seeing that Nezha had already introduced him. He quickly followed suit and paid his respects.
Jiang Ziya was having a headache from the four demon generals, but he was happy to hear that someone had come with the Dao order.
But after Zhou Xiaobai entered, it was like a bucket of cold water being poured over his head.
Without even using his spiritual eye ability, he could tell how weak Zhou Xiaobai was at first glance.
Perhaps Zhou Xiaobai's lack of karmic burden of killing would be an advantage in other places, but this is a battlefield.
Zhou Xiaobai is a dragon prince who has never even killed a living being. Who could expect him to have great combat power?
What the battlefield lacks now is a powerful ally to help defeat the Four Demon Generals, not a kind young dragon.
"Since you're here, Nezha will arrange for you to stay!" Jiang Ziya waved his hand and said.
When Nezha saw Jiang Ziya treating Zhou Xiaobai lightly, he was not upset at all, but instead happily agreed.
The less Jiang Ziya paid attention to Zhou Xiaobai, the safer Zhou Xiaobai became.
After thanking Jiang Ziya, Zhou Xiaobai was pulled out of the tent by Nezha.
Jiang Ziya watched Zhou Xiaobai leave and sighed helplessly.
"My tent is over there. You can stay here. I'll have someone take your horse away!" Nezha said, pointing to the tent next to him.
"No need, I'll put the horse away!" Zhou Xiaobai said as he put the celestial horse into the spirit beast pouch.
"Then come to my tent and tell me about your situation!" Seeing that Zhou Xiaobai had nothing to say, Nezha pulled Zhou Xiaobai into his tent.
Zhou Xiaobai recounted everything he could from his experiences, but attributed the credit for defeating the great demon to the old Dragon King.
"Thank you!" Nezha suddenly said.
Zhou Xiaobai felt baffled; Nezha had just said something out of the blue.
Seeing Zhou Xiaobai's dazed expression, Nezha couldn't help but laugh.
"Thank you for stealing the Exquisite Pagoda!" Nezha waved his hand, and a soundproof barrier enveloped the entire tent before he spoke softly.
Nezha's words were like a thunderbolt, catching Zhou Xiaobai off guard.
"It's none of my business!" Zhou Xiaobai quickly denied.
We cannot admit to this, not even if Nezha suspects it.
Li Jing didn't care, but the "Exquisite Pagoda" was Randeng's magic weapon. Randeng was the vice leader of the Chan Sect, and his status was even higher than that of Nezha's master, Taiyi Zhenren.
"I understand, that's why I'm telling you this in private!" Nezha slapped Zhou Xiaobai hard and laughed.
Upon hearing that Li Jing's "Exquisite Pagoda" had been lost, Nezha immediately suspected that Zhou Xiaobai was responsible.
Although he didn't know how Zhou Xiaobai stole the "Exquisite Pagoda," and even the fact that Zhou Xiaobai didn't have the strength to steal it didn't affect his judgment. In his heart, he had already accepted that Zhou Xiaobai was the one who did it.
Because Nezha knew that in this world, almost no one would have any reason to steal Li Jing's "Exquisite Pagoda".
Even if someone steals the "Exquisite Pagoda", they cannot use it. As soon as it is taken out, Daoist Ran Deng will find out.
In this way, stealing the "Exquisite Pagoda" would bring no benefit whatsoever; on the contrary, it would offend the Chan Sect and Daoist Ran Deng.
Nezha suspected that Zhou Xiaobai was responsible because Nezha's investigation revealed that Zhou Xiaobai had just left the Dragon Palace and appeared near Chen Tang Pass during that period.
Nezha knew even more that only Zhou Xiaobai would steal a useless magic weapon that was unusable and would offend a powerful being in order to help him, and the only reason for this was that the magic weapon had hurt Nezha.
"Do you know that Li Jing now only dares to sit on the lotus platform and doesn't dare to leave for even a moment!" Nezha said with a hint of smugness.
There must have been a reason why Li Jing acted this way.
