Chapter 316 A loving father and a filial son
"Yes, you don't regard your junior sisters and the fairies as women, but you don't regard them as human beings either. What's more, you are still lustful. You can practice the ruthless way and control it freely. You are amazing!"

Lishan Old Mother said unhappily, "Well, the Jade Emperor has sent an envoy to summon you. It seems that you will not stay in Lishan for long. I will not settle accounts with you, a worthless person."

Wen Rui looked embarrassed. He thought he had hidden his true nature very well, but he had already been exposed by Lishan Laomu and had been seen through for a long time.

Wen Rui restrained his expression, bowed his head respectfully and said: "My lady, I will never forget your kindness in protecting me for hundreds of years."

Lishan Old Mother nodded slowly, as if relieved, and said: "That's good. Once you go to heaven, your father Xiao Zhong'er will discipline you. I don't have to worry about you anymore, a troublemaker."

Wen Rui chuckled and said, "My lady, it's hard to say. Maybe one day I'll have enough fun there and quit my job and come back."

"Nonsense! With all the great merits you have, the Jade Emperor can't scare you with empty titles. He must at least confer you the title of Great Emperor before he can legitimately summon you to heaven."

Lishan Laomu said angrily: "Throughout the history, there is no reason for the Great Emperor to resign. Even if you want to resign, the Jade Emperor will not agree."

Wen Rui smiled without saying anything, but he had already made a plan in his mind.

"The Great Emperor?" The Seventh Fairy couldn't help but exclaimed in surprise: "So, the next time I see you, it will be in Heaven, and by then you will be the Great Emperor?"

The fairies around her were also all surprised and stunned, and there was a lot of discussion.

"That's terrible. We were really offended by what we said just now. Will he bear a grudge against us?"

"With the Holy Mothers presiding over justice for us, we are not afraid of Li's revenge, but we have offended him. He seems to have a close relationship with the Holy Mothers. If he embarrasses us in the future, what should we do?"

"By the way, who is he? He looks like an ordinary person."

"Ordinary? Upon closer inspection, he is clearly very handsome and well-dressed..."

"The little girl is in love, be careful not to break the rules and be caught and punished by Li Tianwang."

"Not at all!"

"Mortal? He even beat Nezha away, how could he be a mortal?"

"Didn't Nezha sneak away because he hated his father?"

……

Three women were like a thousand ducks, and the chirping of a dozen fairies was so noisy that it gave Wen Rui a headache.

As the Mother of Lishan, who had a strong female supremacy complex, was still nearby, Wen Rui did not dare to get angry and scold them away, and could only selectively ignore them.

He waved to He Lingyun and called her to his side. Wen Rui said earnestly, "As I talked to you a few years ago, I am afraid I will be away for a long time. The Jinling Xianzong will be handed over to you. From today on, you will be the new leader of the Jinling Xianzong."

"Brother, I...I..."

He Lingyun's eyes were full of reluctance and he wanted to say something, but he couldn't say it in front of so many people.

"Venerable Mother, Ling Yun was once a disciple of Li Shan. After I ascend to heaven, I will need your care."

"Don't worry, I won't let this child suffer any injustice."

The Mother of Mount Li readily agreed and looked at He Lingyun with a loving look.

This goddess had two major hobbies in her life. One was to accept female disciples, and the other was to see her female disciples accomplish great things to prove that women were just as capable as men.

Wen Ruichuan learned that the position of the sect leader was He Lingyun, which was very much to her liking.

……

Li Jing fled from Mount Li, riding on a cloud and soaring into the sky. Soon he flew over the sea of ​​clouds. In the distance ahead he could see two rows of golden steles and a magnificent gate standing in the clouds.

Seeing that the South Gate of Heaven was just ahead, Li Jing stopped the cloud, thought for a moment, then descended a little and hid in the sea of ​​clouds.

He now looked really miserable, with ragged clothes and disheveled hair, and the scratches on his face had not yet disappeared.

If he went to Tianmen in this image and was seen by the Heavenly King Mo Liqing, he would surely be ridiculed.

There are four heavenly kings in heaven, but there are five great gods, and he, the Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King, is the extra one.

Although they are all heavenly kings, Li Jing's status is far superior to the other four. If we make an analogy, he is the commander-in-chief of the central army, and the other four are the commanders of the four garrison armies.

The exquisite pagoda, the magic weapon of the Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King, is also of a higher grade than the four Heavenly Kings' treasured swords, umbrellas, snakes, and harps. Among the gods who rely on treasures for power, the higher the treasure, the higher the power and status.

Moreover, in the Battle of the Gods, Li Jing surrendered to the Western Zhou Dynasty early on, while the Four Heavenly Kings were generals under Wen Zhong, so the two sides have always been somewhat at odds with each other.

Li Jing even had some suspicion that the four generals of the Demon Family had known that he would end up like this when they were in Lingxiao Palace that day, and they were waiting to laugh at him.

As the saying goes, "The donkey can fall down, but the frame will not."

Even the gods are not immune to this. Knowing that the fairies who beat him up might have spread the rumors everywhere, Li Jing had to maintain his last bit of dignity.

You must never let your subordinates who have always been at odds with you make a fool of themselves.

Hiding in the thick clouds, Li Jing used his divine power to heal his injuries and repair his golden armor. He sat cross-legged for several days until he recovered as before, without any sign of the beating he had received.

Only then did he walk towards the South Gate with square steps, holding his head high, as if a leader was inspecting.

Just as Li Jing expected, Mo Liqing was standing in the center of Tianmen, holding the Qingyun sword in his hand, looking around like a door god.

"I pay my respects to Heavenly King Li. When he left the South Heavenly Gate, he clearly led a group of heavenly soldiers and generals. Why did he return to the court alone?"

Mo Liqing asked with a fake smile on his face, speaking with a hint of meaning.

"I am here on a mission under the order of the king. The matter involves confidential information. What does it have to do with you? Don't ask questions without permission!"

Li Jing frowned and scolded in a stern voice.

Mo Liqing curled his lips and continued with a fake smile: "I am also concerned about Shangguan's safety. The Third Prince hurried back a few days ago. In the past few days, the heavenly soldiers and generals have also returned one after another, but there is no trace of you. I thought..."

"Nezha is back?" Li Jing asked through gritted teeth.

"I came back a long time ago. I asked him when I passed by the South Heaven Gate, but the Third Prince was in a hurry and did not reply."

"This rebellious son really doesn't care whether I live or die!" Li Jing clenched his fists unconsciously.

Suppressing his anger, Li Jing walked into the Tianmen calmly under the strange gazes of the gatekeepers.

After returning to heaven, Li Jing went straight to Yunlou Palace.

Yunlou Palace is the official residence of the Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King. Anyway, the administrative efficiency of the Heavenly Court is very poor, and it will not be too late to report to the Jade Emperor ten days or half a month later. Li Jing will first go to find the rebellious son who abandoned his father and fled alone to ask him clearly.

As soon as he entered the Heavenly King Hall of Yunlou Palace, Nezha came to greet him and said with a sigh of relief: "Father, you are finally back! These days, I have been worried day and night, and I went to ask my two brothers for help, but they were unable to help. It was really frustrating."

Li Jing's mouth trembled slightly, holding back a lot of resentment, trying his best to stay calm, and said coldly: "Why don't you go back to Lishan to save me?"

"Father, it's not that I don't want to save you, I just can't help it."

Nezha said aggrievedly: "I don't know why my wind fire wheel broke."

"Can the Hot Wheels be broken?" Li Jing narrowed his eyes and sneered, "Take it out. I want to see how broken it is!"

Nezha quickly took out the icy Wind Fire Wheels, and as if to prove something, he recited the formula to drive the magic weapon in front of Li Jing.

The dark shadow attached to the Hot Wheels quietly sank into the ground and slipped away without making any sound.

As soon as the debuff of infinitely absorbing heat energy disappeared, the Hot Wheels suddenly emitted flames and began to spin, miraculously completing self-repair.

"Hey!" Nezha was shocked and stammered, "I tried it just now and it didn't work. How come it's working again now?"

Li Jing watched it perform and sneered, "It was broken before I came back, but it was fine when I came back. It's amazing. Even if the wind and fire wheels were broken, why didn't you capture Wen Rui and force him to send you back to Lishan?"

"Father, I am incompetent and cannot match the evil man's magic. Not to mention capturing him, even if I am a step slower in escaping, I will be killed."

Li Jing's eyes were cold and stern, and he said word by word: "Okay, okay, you have a lotus holy body, the ability to turn rivers and seas upside down, and you are equipped with several top-grade fairy treasures. You are known as the first vanguard of the heavenly court, but you can't beat a mere mortal?"

“Eh?” Nezha’s eyes widened, with a look of grievance: “Father, what I said is all true. Wen Rui is no longer the Wen Rui of the past. He is many times more ferocious and vicious than he was back then…”

"enough!"

Li Jing waved his hand and rudely stopped Nezha's feeble defense.
