Chapter 428: Marshal Taihu, Twenty Whips
Tiechen lost the dragon ball and could no longer protect Duheng. Without troops to help him, General Taihu was only a figurehead.
Tiechen once went to great lengths to take control of the military power of the Water Palace, but the Taihu God always dismissed him with a few words.
The military order is given when it is needed, but it is just in name only when it is not needed.
Although he was called General Taihu, he could only command some personal soldiers. At other times, he was unable to mobilize the troops of the Water Palace.
But now, the military power he had painstakingly sought was easily within his grasp. Without the need for military seals, the Taihu God personally summoned the generals from various divisions and established rules for Tie Chen, promoting him from General Taihu to Marshal Taihu, commanding the entire Taihu army.
After years of striving, his wish finally came true, but Tiechen's heart had long since lost its passion, and instead felt a chill. This power had come so easily, and was destined to be lost just as easily.
Tie Chen had already realized his mistake, and with the guidance and instruction of the Immortal Jin Ting, he saw the Taihu God trying to win him over. He used the Dragon Ball to make the Taihu God let down his guard a little, and finally agreed to give him power.
Tiechen remained humble, respectful to the Taihu God, and protective of Du Heng. Similarly, the Taihu God finally looked up to him and showed his love to his adopted son.
Imprison his biological son and give power to his adopted son.
After Tie Chen left, the God of Taihu looked at the empty temple and finally felt a sense of sadness and loneliness of old age.
Dragons live longer than turtles. The old prime minister's three thousand-year lifespan has been the envy of countless seekers. Without immortality, human lifespan is limited to fifteen hundred years, and even with reincarnation and cultivation, it's still only three thousand years.
However, certain species often live even longer. Qiantang Jun, having lived since ancient times until his ascension in broad daylight, has already lived for over three thousand years. As a deity, blessed by heaven and supported by the people, he can also live even longer.
Although the Thunder Officer calls the Taihu God the Old Dragon, to be honest, the Taihu God is not old at all.
The Taihu God sighed, "I have no other way to deal with that rebellious son. I only hope that the Great Immortal Jin Ting can teach him a good lesson."
The young Prime Minister Turtle knew what the Taihu God needed, so he comforted him, "My Lord, I have investigated the Great Immortal Jin Ting for some time. Although he is arrogant and narrow-minded, he does have some ability."
"He occupied the Shenjing Palace and was able to tame all of its Taoists without killing them. If he subdued the evil dragon, he could tame it and collect the essence of heavenly thunder for him."
"The young master is naughty, but that fox demon, the Jinting Great Immortal, probably has plenty of ways to teach him right. He also has something to ask of you, and he wants to befriend you, so I'm sure he'll do his best."
Thinking of the Immortal Jin Ting, the Taihu God began to show signs of fatigue. The fox demon was known for its deceptive nature, and although he was on guard, he was still under its control.
If he hadn't been reasonable and willing to make friends, the Taihu God would never have dared to send Du Heng there. Du Heng's skills were enough to piss off his own father, but he wouldn't be able to stand up to the Jinting Great Immortal.
Du Heng's ability was indeed not enough. The Taihu God stayed in the Water Palace for a night, and Du Heng had no ability to escape. At dawn, Tie Chen had his arms tied and his mouth gagged and sent him to the Shenjing Palace.
Of course, ordinary ropes could not tie him up, so they used a demon-binding rope, and stuffed his mouth with a piece of Tianyun brocade of the right size. They also invited General Talang and General Fubo to accompany them and send him all the way to Shenjing Palace.
Tie Chen ordered Generals Talang and Fubo to go back first, then bowed respectfully at the gate of the Golden Palace and said, "Mr. Jin Ting, our students Tie Chen and Du Heng have come here as agreed."
Mr. Jin Ting was discussing Taoism with Taoist Xiao in the hall.
Taoist Xiao also had a terrible headache. After all, Shenjing Palace was his ancestral property. As soon as the Immortal Jinting came, he caused a big trouble. He summoned the dragon from the Taihu Water Palace and kept the rainmaker in the back mountain.
He was terrified, fearing that one day the Shenjing Palace would be ravaged by the Jinting Immortal.
The Immortal Jin Ting simply talked about Du Heng's affairs in general and told him that he had already made an agreement with the God of Taihu Lake to help him educate his children.
Taoist Xiao only listened to the general situation, and when he knew that it was not a fight with the Taihu Water Palace, the heavy stone in his heart fell. After hearing about Du Heng's story, he sighed: "A gentleman does not teach his son."
Jin Ting Daxian thought that the Taihu God was not a gentleman and had not taught his son at all. Hearing Tie Chen asking for an audience outside, Jin Ting Daxian ordered Xiao Daoren to leave first.
When he opened the door, he saw the respectful Tie Chen and Du Heng, whose face was full of defiance and hatred.
Tiechen didn't dare to take out the Tianyunjin stuffed in Duheng's mouth, for fear that he would really offend his master by speaking, and then even the gods would be unable to save him.
Jin Ting Daxian said, "Get up and untie him."
Tiechen hesitated for a while, but still put away the Demon-Binding Rope and Tianyun Brocade.
Du Heng turned around and fled without saying a word, turning into a long wind and soaring into the air.
The Immortal Jin Ting sneered and did not need to tie the dragon rope. He shook his sleeve and a long black whip flew out. It spread out in the air and turned into endless black silk threads. It was the evil wind of Taixu that was whistling and crisscrossing. In a moment, it wrapped around Du Heng, shattering his scales and armor, splashing dragon blood, and he fell to the ground.
The dragon whip lashed down fiercely, and the Taixu evil wind greedily drilled into Du Heng's scales and tore at his flesh.
Du Heng let out a terrible scream and rolled on the ground in pain. The dragon's tail slapped everywhere, dirt and dust flew everywhere, and the courtyard wall collapsed.
The Immortal Jin Ting didn't care about anything and just whipped him twenty times first.
Tie Chen quickly pleaded, "Sir, please forgive Du Heng and stop hitting him."
The great immortal Jin Ting swung his whip back and hit Tie Chen directly.
After being whipped, Tiechen finally understood why Du Heng screamed so loudly.
Tie Chen rolled over on the ground, terrified. He was afraid that his master would deny his mistake and turn the fake into real, so there was no need to use such harsh measures!
After giving twenty lashes, Jin Ting Daxian finally felt relieved.
Above the nine heavens, the Thunder Officer hurriedly pushed the dark clouds even harder, stirring up the yin and yang, generating thunder. He feared the Immortal Jin Ting would remember him and give him a beating.
After the beating, Jin Ting Daxian wrapped the dragon whip around the doorpost and spoke to them kindly, saying, "Change back."
The two men felt severe pain all over their bodies, but they dared not disobey. They both turned into human form, but could not even stand steadily.
Tiechen was less seriously injured, so he supported Duheng and helped him stand.
The Immortal Jin Ting smiled and asked, "Du Heng, do you still recognize who I am?"
Du Heng turned his head away with fear on his face, not daring to look directly at the Immortal Jin Ting.
Jin Ting Daxian frowned, and Tie Chen quickly pushed Du Heng and said, "I haven't met you yet, sir."
Du Heng gritted his teeth, turned his head abruptly and glared at Jin Ting Daxian, his eyes filled with fear and anger.
The Immortal Jin Ting took the dragon-beating whip off the doorpost with a casual pull, and rewarded Du Heng with another whip.
"Ah!" Du Heng rolled on the ground, feeling like he was in hell.
The dragon-beating whip rolled up in circles, and Jin Ting Daxian walked slowly in front of Du Heng with the dragon-beating whip in one hand.
Before he could speak, Du Heng bowed down and said, "Sir!"
The Immortal Jin Ting put the dragon whip into his sleeve and said, "That's right."
