After all, Queen Mother of the West even told Jiang Lu about their life stories, so it was not surprising that she said other things behind his back.
So even though he kept repeating "You're talking nonsense", his eyes were visibly red.
You can see that he feels very aggrieved, as if he is about to break.
"Don't worry, I was a little too aggressive, that's not what I meant." Jiang Lu patted Dong Wanggong's shoulder gently as if to comfort him, as if to coax a child: "Don't get excited, let's calm down, let me explain it to you in detail."
Dong Wanggong finally let go of Jiang Lu, then pouted and nodded: "Yeah."
Seeing that Dong Wanggong had been dealt with and his life was no longer in danger, Jiang Lu began to blatantly spread rumors:
"In fact, I wasn't just being polite. It was more of a test, mainly to see if he was the kind of person I thought he was."
"Hmm?" Dong Wanggong was obviously aroused by Jiang Lu's way of keeping things in suspense: "What kind of person?"
"Villain." Jiang Lu sighed regretfully, "Although I also hope that I am overthinking, but the facts prove that he, the Moral Lord, has no morals at all."
"Why do you say that?"
"That's what happened."
Jiang Lu explained:
"When I was dating your sister, no one else knew about it. That old man thought your sister was single, so he showed his affection to her and gave her gifts. The gift he gave her was his famous skill, Yi Qi Transformation into Three Pure Ones.
Your sister is kind-hearted, and since he is a prominent figure after all, she didn't want to offend him, so she accepted it.
Your sister accepted a gift from someone outside, and the person is her suitor. In order not to destroy our relationship, does she have to tell me when she gets home?
Your sister did the same thing. As for me, I am a very generous person and not petty. I would not get angry about such things, so I just talked about it very easily.
After that, we started to study together the One Qi Transformation into Three Pure Ones. After all, it was the old man's famous skill, and we were all very interested in it.
The result! Guess what happened? "
"What's wrong?"
"There's something wrong with that secret book!"
Jiang Lu said angrily:
“That secret manual is not only incomplete, but also has been secretly modified in many places. It has many drawbacks. Logically speaking, the clones created cannot have any effect on the original body, but in the version he gave, the clones can actually backfire on the original body.
I discovered this only after I finished practicing. To be precise, that old guy had a share of the credit for my being fooled back then.
Oh, but that’s all in the past. Let’s not talk about it now. Anyway, I suspected at the time that the old guy wanted to trick your sister into practicing this technique, and then blackmail her, saying that if she wanted the complete version with all the flaws, she had to be with her or something like that.
Anyway, if you don't listen to him and do as he asks, then after practicing this technique you will have flaws and your cultivation will not be complete.
You know what I mean? It's like drugging someone.
I wanted to confront him at first, but your sister was worried that I might have misunderstood him, so she asked me to be nicer and test the waters, and that’s how it turned out.”
After hearing Jiang Lu's description, Dong Wanggong instantly became angry: "Is there such a thing?"
"Isn't that so?" Jiang Lu said with an old-fashioned expression: "It's absolutely true."
Dong Wanggong lowered his head in shame: "It seems that I really misunderstood you..."
"It doesn't matter. Heroes are always misunderstood." Jiang Lu smiled with relief.
"I really didn't follow the wrong person!" Dong Wanggong clenched his fists and regained his faith and love.
In this way, under Jiang Lu's manipulation, the contradiction was successfully transferred to the head of the Moral Lord...
Chapter 302 I will always be xx’s loyal dog!
Jiang Lu didn't know whether the Lord of Dao and Virtue had tampered with the "One Qi Transformed into Three Pure Ones" given to the Queen Mother of the West.
But he was sure that what he had practiced was fake.
Although it is not certain whether it is a problem of the Lord of Morality or the Queen Mother of the West, it is not a wise move to slander the sister of the King of the East in front of him, so at this time it can only be a problem of the Lord of Morality.
Yes, whether he had done it or not, but since everything happened so coincidentally, he had to have done it.
This is what is called following the will of heaven.
"That old man looks so righteous, but I didn't expect him to be such a scoundrel!" Dong Wanggong was so angry that his teeth were itching: "He actually did such a ridiculous thing to my sister, I will settle accounts with him one day!"
He spoke indignantly and his words were quite fierce. He did not show any fear at all towards the Lord of Morality because of his lofty status and unfathomable power.
Although Dong Wang Gong does not seem to have a strong presence in various mythological records, he is actually of the same generation as the Lord of Dao and Virtue.
Yuanshi Tianzun, the leader of the Three Pure Ones, is actually the elder brother of the Queen Mother of the West and the King Father of the East.
The gods such as the Lord of Daode, the Lord of Lingbao, the Emperor of Heaven and Innocence, the Five Heavenly Emperors were all ordained by Yuanshi Tianzun. So according to seniority, although the Lord of Daode and the Lord of Lingbao are known as the Three Pure Ones together with Yuanshi Tianzun, their actual status is half a head lower than that of Yuanshi Tianzun. The Lord of Daode is a bit like the big brother's college classmate and follower to the King of East.
When people respect you, they call you brother, and when people look down on you, they call you a moral boy. What can you do about it?
Of course, this relationship was also kept secret. Even if Jiang Lu was drunk, when it came to Yuanshi Tianzun, he still kept some face and knew his limits and didn't say it out loud.
Although Jiang Lu didn't know why his brothers and sisters wanted to hide their relationship from the outside world, since Yuanshi Tianzun didn't want it to be exposed, Jiang Lu certainly wouldn't deliberately provoke him.
To put it bluntly, Jiang Lu knew in his heart that it was just teasing other people's younger siblings at best, but if he really wanted to deliberately provoke his eldest brother, there was no need to say anything.
It’s not that he is afraid of Yuanshi Tianzun, it’s just that the fairyland is very close to the underworld. As the first neighbor to establish diplomatic relations after the underworld declared independence, Jiang Lu really doesn’t want a strong enemy to appear next to his bed.
After all, he has made enough enemies outside, so there is no reason to offend the gang leaders who could have been his friends inside.
So thinking of this relationship, Jiang Lu was a little worried that the matter would get out of hand, and advised: "Hey, brother-in-law, don't get too excited. Even if you don't care about that guy's status in the fairy world, after all, he is still a close friend of your brother Yuanshi Tianzun. There's no need to make a scene."
"Hmm?" Dong Wanggong asked in surprise, "Sister not only told you about my relationship with her, but also told you about my elder brother?"
"Ah... um." Jiang Lu scratched his head: "Yes, but if there are rumors about him, it is definitely not me who said it."
"It seems that my sister really trusts you..." Dong Wanggong nodded thoughtfully: "Then I can trust you too."
He didn't feel at all that Jiang Lu was favoring people. He didn't hesitate to bring up the matter between him and the Queen Mother of the West, and he was very clear about the boundaries when it came to Yuanshi Tianzun.
On the contrary, I think he is able to keep secrets and is very tight-lipped.
As for the accidental leak, he naturally regarded it as Jiang Lu's test of the Lord of Morality, wanting to see if he was a broad-minded person. However, the result of the test was not very ideal and some sacrifices occurred.
"Humph, but so what?"
Dong Wanggong clenched his fists in dissatisfaction, twisting his joints and making crackling sounds:
"Could it be possible that if the eldest brother knew about this, he would still protect him? If he really wanted to protect him, he could have just given it a try and see if I would beat him up. How dare the eldest brother, are you rebelling against him?"
"Ah, your description and your name don't match well..." Jiang Lu complained silently.
"Anyway, you can't bully my sister!"
Dong Wanggong placed his hand on Jiang Lu's shoulder and squeezed it hard like a supporting character in an anime who was about to die after giving up his faith:
"Besides, don't I have you now? Brother-in-law, if you and I join forces, what does it matter even if we tear the sky apart?"
When he spoke, there was a hint of excitement in his eyes. You could see that he seemed very much looking forward to it, as if he had finally found a backer and could use his power to bully others.
"Ah, no, I'm actually not that awesome now..."
"how come?"
Dong Wanggong was puzzled:
"How come you have become so weak after not seeing you for so many years? Where is the Jiang Lu, the Lord of the Underworld who used to be domineering at home and arrogant abroad, who didn't give face to anyone, and was chased to the underworld by those foreign gods, such as Jehovah and Odin, but still spoke foul language and never lost the battle? You have to stand up."
"?" Jiang Lu was not happy to hear this: "Can you speak? And I was being hunted? They were outnumbered, so I retreated strategically, okay? I was at a disadvantage because I provoked them one by one in a short period of time. If it was a one-on-one fight, I would have punched their mothers' wombs out. Do you believe it?"
"Believe it, I believe it!" Dong Wanggong nodded firmly, "That's why I said that it shouldn't be difficult for you to deal with my elder brother, a mere Yuanshi Tianzun."
"But that was in the past. Now..." Jiang Lu sighed, "Don't you see that I have lost all my cultivation and am no different from an ordinary person?"
"Eh?" Dong Wanggong said in surprise, "I thought you were going through the mortal world and deliberately turned yourself into a mortal."
"Ah, I'm not that boring..."
"What exactly is going on?"
Jiang Lu shrugged his shoulders and pretended to be relaxed as he briefly told Dong Wanggong the key points of his experience.
He concealed a considerable amount of complicated circumstances, so from what Dong Wanggong heard, it seemed that Jiang Lu had just recently been resurrected, had not yet started practicing again, and was working hard to regain everything he had lost.
"Is that so?" Dong Wanggong said somewhat frustratedly, "Then we should not be able to touch my supreme elder brother."
"It seems that we didn't intend to touch him from the beginning, right? Aren't we talking about the Lord of Morality?"
"I don't think I can beat him..."
"So I advise you not to be impulsive." Jiang Lu paused, as if he suddenly realized something: "No, you just wanted me to teach him a lesson for you, right?"
"As my brother-in-law, isn't it your job to stand up for me and my sister?" Duke Dong asked back dissatisfiedly.
"That's true..."
Jiang Lu narrowed his eyes:
"But I don't understand how I can be considered as standing up for you and your sister. Wasn't your sister the victim? What does it have to do with you?"
"I will always be my sister's most loyal dog!"
"Wow, that's awesome."
Two minutes later.
The two big shots, whose true identities would scare everyone to death, were just like the two old men that could be seen everywhere at the entrance of the village. Each of them had a rattan chair, smoking the cigarette that Jiang Lu always carried with him, and they didn't say a word, just sitting in the sun, swaying.
"Don't worry." Jiang Lu suddenly said, "When I have the chance in the future, I will settle the score with him. Don't think too much. It's better to live your life well and worry less about your sister."
"Yeah." Dong Wanggong responded calmly.
The two of them are very much like the successful brother-in-law and the disappointing brother-in-law in a family ethics drama.
Perhaps he was in the right state, Jiang Lu struck while the iron was hot and said: "Look at you now, I don't know how to tell your sister about what you did, ah..."
"What's wrong with me?"
"Now that you've become a bad person, you've come to the human world to open a casino. What do you think you look like?"
"But...but..."
"But what but? I saw it all with my own eyes. Are you still trying to make excuses?"
Jiang Lu sat up and said sternly:
"And I heard that the Sanqing Temple in the human world has expressly prohibited this kind of casino. As the main god, you should consider the suffering of the human world, but not only do you not control it, but you go against the wind and commit crimes, encouraging evil trends. Do you think this is appropriate?"
