Chapter 62: Styx's Turn
◎Join the West◎
It is impossible to calculate the whereabouts of the saint through ordinary calculations, and no one knows where Zhunti Jieyin is at the moment, but it does not prevent Di Jun from taking this opportunity to attack Lingshan. He directly interrogates the remaining few disciples in Lingshan.
The disciples had met Kong Shuang and Tong Tian in the past. Although they were both powerful, they did not use their strength to bully the weak. Especially Tong Tian, he would preach to them in his spare time and was as kind as he could be.
I used to think that people in the East were as nice as they are, but now seeing this bunch of vicious monsters, I realize that there are both good and bad people everywhere.
Several disciples looked at each other, looking at each other. Finally, one of them stepped forward and clasped his hands together, facing the demon clan. "The two saints have traveled far and have not returned. We have no idea where they are. Please come back next time!"
When the demons saw that the little monk had red lips and white teeth, and spoke in a soft voice, which was different from other people in the West, they felt bad and went forward to tease him.
Emperor Jun didn't notice anything.
Nuwa frowned, turned her face away in disgust, and said nothing.
This little monk was none other than Jin Chanzi. Facing the covetous looks and words of the demon people, he took a few steps back with an ugly expression, then turned around to look at his fellow disciples. Seeing that none of them dared to step forward, he suddenly felt a little disappointed.
He was just an ordinary disciple who came to Lingshan to practice. He was not a direct disciple of the two teachers, and his talent was not very good. His ancestor was just an ordinary golden cicada. He had always been cautious in Lingshan.
In the past, when Empress Kong Shuang was selecting disciples to serve her, she chose him. Later, when she heard his name, her face changed slightly and she sent him back. For this, he was ridiculed by other disciples.
In the past, when the Sage Shangqing was still alive, he often preached to them in his spare time and treated them equally, which was admirable.
Jin Chanzi closed his eyes. What did Shangqing say?
He said that every living being is equal, and one should not feel inferior because of one's own background or cultivation level. One should not blindly tolerate injustice but learn to resist.
Thinking of this, he opened his eyes, with a bit more determination in his eyes. He looked at the leader in front of him and chopped him with a palm.
The fact that Jin Chanzi was able to be taken to Lingshan by Zhunti shows that he is not a bad person. Di Jun is very confident in himself, and he also has the Saint Nuwa. The attendants he brought with him are all small fry, just for show. They are all strong on the outside but weak on the inside, and none of them is a Daluo Jinxian.
With this palm strike from Jin Chanzi, the leading demon was directly knocked thousands of feet away, and he vomited blood.
The remaining demons were furious. Di Jun's face turned black. He hadn't even conquered the sacred mountain yet, but he was already slapped in the face.
The other disciples of the master of Lingshan were even more shocked. They never thought that the timid Jin Chanzi would dare to attack others and beat them into this state.
Jin Chanzi, who released himself for the first time, looked at his palm unwillingly, as if he couldn't believe that the person just now was himself.
The rest of the demon tribe attacked simultaneously, and suddenly Nuwa shouted angrily: "Stop, you think it's not shameful enough."
These words were not only a curse on the demon clan, but also implied Di Jun. Di Jun's face changed slightly, but he said nothing. He was used to being humble to Nuwa in front of his subjects to maintain his humility towards the saint.
Saints are the belief of the demon clan, and since the boss does not give any orders, the other demons can only retreat in embarrassment.
Although Di Jun surrendered to Nuwa on the surface, he still coveted Lingshan in the slightest. He immediately ordered the attack on Lingshan.
The monsters were rubbing their hands, eager to try.
The disciples of Lingshan hugged each other. They were too few in number and were no match for the larger and more powerful demon tribe. They retreated one by one.
When Jin Chanzi saw this scene, his face darkened.
The demons laughed heartily, and almost regarded Lingshan as their own possession.
At this moment, a group of people landed on Lingshan Mountain and looked at Di Jun.
When they saw the leader, Di Jun and Nuwa were dumbfounded.
It was Minghe who appeared with the Asura clan. It was rumored that he was the one who tried to snatch the Hongmeng Purple Qi from Zhunti but failed with Kong Shuang.
Di Jun asked tentatively, "Minghe, did you go to the wrong camp?"
Normally, shouldn't the Styx be an enemy of Lingshan? Shouldn't it come to help the demon clan? Why did it help Lingshan instead?
Minghe's expression was indifferent, and he shook his head slightly: "I intend to flee to the West. Stopping you will be a great achievement, and I can then claim credit for it from the two saints."
He had a blank expression on his face, except when he mentioned the two saints, he looked a little moved, and seemed to have great admiration for Zhunti Jieying.
Nuwa's expression froze. She had to quickly inform Kong Shuang that her ally had rebelled and that the Styx was no longer reliable!
The elites of the Asura clan are not at all inferior to the demon clan, and Di Jun has been specializing in the way of the emperor in recent years, with almost no improvement in his cultivation. However, Minghe is a person who only needs a ray of primordial purple energy to become a saint. The difference in their strength is obvious.
Di Jun was anxious. He frantically blocked the attack of the Styx with the River Map and Luo Shu, while shouting at Nuwa: "Saint, why don't you take action?"
Nuwa hesitated. She came here just to talk to Zhunti Jieyin, not to make enemies. She also didn't want to take over Lingshan. Even if she took it, Lingshan would not be hers. Only a fool would be willing to be Di Jun's thug.
Besides, Minghe seems very powerful now, and it is not worth it to offend him for Di Jun. She is already isolated and helpless in the demon clan, with only a name but no substance, and she cannot be surrounded by enemies outside the demon clan.
But Di Jun was the leader of the demon clan after all. If he really died, wouldn't the demon clan be in chaos...
She was very entangled. At this time, Zhunti and Jieyin finally came back.
The two of them were enjoying blowing a breeze in Dijiang's ears at first, but suddenly they felt uneasy. They counted with their fingers and found that their hometown had been raided. The Three Corpse Gods were so angry that they jumped into a rage and tore through space to rush back.
Then he saw an extremely mysterious scene. The Styx was actually protecting the disciples of Lingshan in their fight against the demons. He rubbed his eyes and almost thought he had seen it wrong. Was it that Styx?
It really is that Styx!
At this time, Zhunti didn't bother to doubt whether Minghe was planning something bad. He glared at Di Jun, revealed his sage body, picked up the Seven Treasures Wonderful Tree and smashed it at Di Jun.
When talking about the Seven Treasures Wonderful Tree, one cannot help but think of Tongtian. When Tongtian chopped up the Seven Treasures Wonderful Tree and other treasures, he was so heartbroken that he almost wanted to die with it. Then he pulled Jie Yin and fainted in front of the gate of Zixiao Palace.
Finally, I was received by the teacher.
They fiercely accused Tongtian of wanting to kill his fellow disciples. The teacher comforted them and told them that Tongtian had been taken away by Laozi and was imprisoned in Kunlun Mountain. They didn't need to worry because Tongtian would not be able to kill them for quite some time.
He almost vomited blood. Is this what he wanted?
He wanted the teacher to punish Tongtian severely instead of putting him in solitary confinement. Besides, could solitary confinement in Kunlun Mountain be considered solitary confinement?
Although they did not get the desired results, in order to compensate them, the teacher repaired their magic weapons and gave them a lot of others, which was considered as taking over the matter.
Thinking of this, Zhunti became even angrier. It was bad enough that the Three Pure Ones bullied us, but who the hell do you think you are, Di Jun, to dare to climb over the heads of saints?
The moment the Seven Treasures Wonderful Tree hit Di Jun's head, a red hydrangea collided with it. This was not a sea of blood, and the magic power of the two saints almost collapsed the Lingshan Mountain.
Minghe was secretly shocked. No wonder Kong Shuang was so afraid when the two of them became saints and insisted on hiding in the sea of blood. It was really terrifying.
Being stopped by Nuwa, Zhunti looked at Nuwa unhappily: "Sister Nuwa, what do you mean by this?"
Nuwa also looked unhappy. "I still have something to ask you. Junior Brother, what is your intention in preaching to the human race without informing us?"
He felt inexplicably guilty when he mentioned Zhunti. He couldn't help but want to preach to the human race and even wanted to lure people to the West...
They were all saints, and they had already made enemies with the Three Pure Ones, so they could not make enemies with Nuwa again. Jie Yin thought for a moment, then pulled Zhunti and bowed to Nuwa: "This matter is due to our brothers' inconsideration, please forgive us, Senior Sister!"
Such a straightforward apology was beyond Nuwa's expectation. The other party had already admitted his mistake, and she felt embarrassed to keep harping on it. She just snorted and let the matter go.
She sneered at the demons: "What are you all standing there for? Why don't you just go back to heaven!"
After witnessing the true power of a saint, not to mention the other demons, even Di Jun had to keep a low profile. He blinked, silently thinking in his heart that he should treat Nuwa better in the future.
"Wait!" Zhunti stretched out his hand to stop everyone. "You are so presumptuous in my Lingshan Mountain, and you think you can leave so easily?"
Di Jun was stunned and subconsciously looked at Nuwa. Nuwa turned her head away. The owner of Lingshan also wanted to ask for an explanation. How could she stop him? She would be more than happy for Jie Yin and Zhunti to teach Di Jun a lesson!
Nuwa was unreliable, so he could only rely on himself. Di Jun cheered up and smiled at Zhunti and Jieyin. He didn't know how many nice words he said, how many smiles he put on, and how much money he spent before he finally made the two of them give in.
Di Jun secretly took note of Nuwa who was watching the fire from the other side of the river, and left miserably with the demon clan.
Seeing Di Jun in such misfortune, Nuwa was pleased with Zhunti Jieyin for the first time and left with a smile.
Watching Di Jun's departing figure, Zhunti felt proud, recalling the time when he listened to the teachings in Zixiao Palace. Di Jun and others were treated like stars, chatting and laughing, and held an outstanding status among the three thousand cultivators.
However, they left the West dressed in rags, not as glamorous as others, and were looked down upon. They were as far away from Di Jun and others as heaven and earth. Now they have finally turned the tables, they have become saints who are high and mighty, and even the demon emperor Di Jun has to be three points shorter in front of them and behave himself with his tail between his legs.
As soon as Dijun and Nuwa left, Minghe became the focus again. Zhunti was so angry when he saw him that his teeth itched: "Minghe, how dare you appear in front of me?"
Thinking of the humiliation of the Blood Sea, he really wanted to kill the Styx with one palm.
The disciples of Lingshan begged one after another: "Teacher, please don't do that. It was this master who saved us back then. Otherwise, we don't know what would have happened..."
Zhunti withdrew his hand with hatred and said through gritted teeth: "Minghe, what do you want?"
Minghe stared at the murderous gaze, his expression unchanged as he bowed to the two men. "Minghe wanted to defect to the West. In the past, I was captured by Kong Shuang. I was possessed by the devil and dared to disrespect the two saints. Now I regret my decision and have come to apologize to the two saints!"
Zhunti snorted. He was not stupid. He still remembered the scene when Minghe pretended to fight with Kong Shuang to make him relax, and then the two of them hid in the sea of blood together.
"Who knows if you and Kong Shuang are up to something bad and want to lure us into a trap!"
Minghe raised his head suddenly, with a look of condemnation:
"How could you say that, Saint? I sincerely wanted to flee to the West, but Kong Shuang tricked me into joining her in attacking the two Saints. Now, with the protection of Shangqing, she's hidden away in Kunlun Mountain. She's just walked away, abandoning me and leaving me trembling day and night in the sea of blood. I hate her so much, how could I possibly join her in plotting against the two Saints?"
This statement was somewhat credible. Zhunti breathed a sigh of relief, but Jie Yin pulled him back and said to Minghe, "I don't care about your affairs with Kong Shuang. Considering that you just protected Lingshan, I will spare your life. Return to your sea of blood!"
Minghe was very unwilling to accept this, and the Asuras behind him were also unwilling to accept this. They all said in unison: "How can they do this? We saved Lingshan. This is too stingy..."
Having reached this point, he no longer cared about his face. Minghe gritted his teeth and said with hatred: "To be honest, I want to join the West to deal with Shangqing and Kong Shuang together with the two saints."
Zhunti opened his eyes wide in surprise. He could understand dealing with Kong Shuang, but he didn't understand why he had to deal with Shangqing. Suddenly, an idea came to him, and he couldn't help but look at Minghe strangely: "You won't..."
Minghe closed his eyes resignedly: "That's right, many years ago I was madly in love with Kong Shuang. I thought that as long as I stayed by her side, she would see me sooner or later, but she actually fell in love with Shangqing... I don't accept it!"
On top of Mount Buzhou, Kong Shuang lay in the clouds, staring at the water mirror in amazement. After finishing his own melon in disbelief, he gestured and explained to the murderous man beside him, "Don't believe him. He just said it to gain Zhunti's trust..."
