Claiming the Throne of Gods, Starting from the Rebirth of Nezha Chapter 2 Taiyi Visits

The third son of the General’s Mansion suddenly opened his spiritual acupoint and began to speak, this joyous news finally alleviated the gloom in Li Jing’s heart.

That evening, a grand banquet was held at the Li Mansion to entertain friends and relatives.

As for Lady Yin, she was holding Nezha in her arms and talking in the inner hall.

Tears glistened in her eyes, yet her face was full of a gentle smile.

"Son, how did you suddenly start speaking?"

"I’ve always been able to."

"Mother never heard you speak before."

"Then from now on, I’ll talk to mother every day."

"Can you call ’mother’ again?"

"Mother!"

The other two sons went to the mountains with the Immortals to learn skills from an early age, only the youngest grew up by his side.

This call of ’mother’ almost lted Lady Yin’s heart.

She said, "You, don’t just call for your mother, go to the front yard and call your father too, make him happy."

Nezha didn’t speak, as a mother, she naturally understood what he was thinking.

Lady Yin lowered her voice and whispered in his ear, "If you are willing to call him father, you won’t suffer losses in the household in the future."

Nezha smiled, squinting at Lady Yin in front of him, "Mother, don’t worry, with Nezha here, I won’t let mother suffer losses anywhere in the future."

"My good son, mother doesn’t care about herself, mother is afraid that you’ll suffer losses."

Li Jing didn’t think as much as Lady Yin, at this ti he was drinking with several family elders in the front hall, many officers from the army also ca to congratulate.

The wine was strongly flowing when Central Army Officer Feng Xiaonian ca to report, "Reporting to the General, there is a Taoist outside the main gate requesting to see you."

It is said that Li Jing was also born in the Taoist sect. In his youth, he sought the Dao and cultivation, apprenticing under Du Er Perfected of West Kunlun, but due to the difficulty of achieving the Immortal Path, he descended the mountain to assist King Zhou, becoming the General of Chentang Pass.

Hearing that soone from the Taoist sect had co to visit, Li Jing naturally did not dare to neglect, "Please invite him in!"

In no ti, everyone saw a Taoist with white beard and hair, his hair tied in a double bun, dressed in Taoist robes, with an otherworldly aura, walking straight into the hall.

The Taoist slightly raised his hand, "Congratulations, General, on gaining a gifted child."

Li Jing hurriedly returned the salute and respectfully invited the Taoist to sit. Once the Taoist was seated, Li Jing asked again, "Whence do you hail, Daoist? What teachings bring you to Chentang Pass today?"

"This humble Taoist is Taiyi Zhenren from Qianyuan Mountain Golden Light Cave. I ca to congratulate upon hearing that the General’s son’s spiritual intelligence has suddenly awakened."

Li Jing promptly thanked him, yet in the heart of Taiyi Zhenren, there was still unease.

Just as Nezha had thought earlier in the pavilion, Taiyi Zhenren should have co when Nezha was born.

For the great endeavor of the Divine Enthronent, he had originally been ordered to observe a few pages of the Hongjun Jade Slip, acting according to its records. He ca in secret when Lady Yin was nine months pregnant, using Daoist Skills to cause the blood fetus in her belly to dissipate its soul.

Thereafter, he only needed to co when Lady Yin was pregnant for three years and six months to infuse the spiritual essence of his underling ’Spirit Pearl’ into her belly, using a surrogate birth to assist King Wu in his campaign against King Zhou in the future.

Yet the last ti he left, within less than a month, the fetus that should have died in Lady Yin’s belly was born successfully.

This unexpected change made Taiyi Zhenren feel as though ants were crawling all over his body.

All these years, he explored the origin of this child, setting up altars to divine, inquiring among the mountains, yet he found no clue whatsoever.

It seed as if the origin of this child was beyond the Heavenly Dao of this world.

A causeless seed, regardless of whose conspiracy, was absolutely no good for the thousand-year plan of the Three Teachings’ future.

Fortunately, there was still an opportunity for redy.

After exchanging a few greetings with Li Jing, Taiyi asked, "Could you bring your son to let have a look?"

"There’s no problem, Daoist, please wait a mont."

Li Jing then turned around and instructed the maid beside him, "Lv Ping, go and bring Nezha to the front hall."

"Yes, master."

Lv Ping swayed her waist as she arrived in the rear hall, first paying her respects to Lady Yin, then said, "Madam, master asked to bring the third young master to the front hall."

Lady Yin was talking with Nezha and asked casually, "What’s Nezha being called for?"

"In response to Madam, a Taoist has arrived in the front yard to offer congratulations and said he wanted to see the young master."

Lady Yin knew about Li Jing’s early quest for immortality that ended in regret, and thus he was quite friendly with these Taoist people, so she didn’t think too deeply and waved for Nezha to go.

But Nezha was sitting barefoot on the chair without moving and asked Lv Ping in return, "Sister Lv Ping, did this Taoist ntion his origins?"

Hearing Nezha’s crisp tone, Lv Ping was utterly confused; she still couldn’t quite believe that the usually dazed-looking handso young master had truly awakened his intelligence.

She answered earnestly, "The Taoist did ntion his cave residence, but there were too many people coming to congratulate the young master today, I didn’t rember it, I only recall he called himself Taiyi Zhenren."

"Are you sure he is called Taiyi Zhenren?"

"I’m sure."

"Go and tell Father that Nezha is mischievous and has gone out to play."

"But young master, it’s so late." Lv Ping was baffled, looking at Nezha, who exhibited not the slightest hint of fear.

"Sister, you don’t need to worry, just relay my words, even if Father is angry, he won’t bla you."

Lv Ping went to the front hall to report back, while Lady Yin asked Nezha, "My son, why don’t you want that Taiyi Zhenren to have a look?"

How could he let him take a look?

Currently, he was the rich young master of the General’s Mansion, with such a good mother. If things developed according to the plot in his mory, wouldn’t he have to cut flesh for his mother and cut bone for his father later on?

Moreover, this Taiyi Zhenren did not co early or late, but ca precisely when he was willing to start speaking, what was his true intention?

The people in the General’s Mansion couldn’t see through his pretense of foolishness. How could a cultivator like Taiyi Zhenren with high mana not see through it?

Nezha couldn’t figure it out.

Like a seven-year-old child throwing a tantrum, he said, "Both brothers were taken to the mountain by the Taoist, Nezha won’t go, Nezha wants to stay at ho and accompany Mother."

"Alright, alright, Nezha will stay at ho, won’t go anywhere."

This reason easily convinced Lady Yin, whereas Lv Ping had her own thoughts.

When she ca out, Li Jing was chatting happily with Taiyi. After saluting, Li Jing asked, "Where is Nezha, why didn’t he co along?"

"I dare not deceive Master, the child is shy and doesn’t want to co out."

Next to him, Taiyi smiled as he saw Li Jing furrow his brow, "Since we are not destined to et today, let’s find another day destined, no worries, let him go play."

Li Jing said with an embarrassed face, "The young boy is mischievous, making a fool of the Zhenren."

"It’s a trivial matter, General, no need to mind. I have already calculated, I have a destined master-disciple connection with Nezha, we will et eventually."

Hearing this, Li Jing was overjoyed, "The Zhenren is willing to accept this mischievous child as an apprentice, it is his greatest fortune. Zhenren, please wait, I will go to the rear courtyard and bring him over right now!"

After saying this, Li Jing hurriedly went to the rear courtyard, looking upon the broad back of Li Jing, Taiyi Zhenren smiled as he gently stroked his long white beard.

Everything was within his plan.

The things recorded in the Hongjun Jade Slip must not fail; once in his cave, everything would proceed according to his manipulation.

"Now, I only hope to deceive the heavens and the sea and complete all this before the great elder finds out."

Thinking like this, Taiyi Zhenren watched as Li Jing already walked with one hand holding Nezha by his collar, bringing him to the front hall.
