Longevity by Picking up Attributes in the Battlefield

Chapter 1207: Chapter 519: Sixteen Primordial-Level Powerhouses! (2)

”For the Taibai Golden Immortal to personally come, it seems the matter is indeed significant.” Yang Jian chuckled, picking up the wine cup on the table and drinking it all in one go, his expression calm and composed.

The next moment!

Gold Star Taibai stepped on auspicious clouds, like a white lightning, instantly appearing before the two.

Gold Star Taibai, dressed in white Daoist robes and holding a horsetail whisk, had a kind face. He slightly cupped his hands toward the two, saluted, and said, ”Greetings, Immortal Master Erlang. Greetings, Third Prince.”

The voice was gentle and courteous.

Yang Jian’s expression remained calm as he looked at Gold Star Taibai and asked indifferently, ”Gold Star Taibai! Why are you not staying in the Heavenly Court, and instead coming to my Guan River Mouth?”

It was apparent.

Yang Jian’s tone contained a hint of aloofness.

Gold Star Taibai maintained a smile and replied unhurriedly, ”By Your Majesty’s decree, to summon the Third Prince to capture a demon monkey.”

As he spoke.

Gold Star Taibai’s gaze shifted to Nezha.

”What kind of demon monkey requires Nezha’s intervention? Is the Heavenly Court devoid of anyone?”

Yang Jian’s voice was filled with sarcasm, overflowing with dissatisfaction and disdain for the Heavenly Court.

Gold Star Taibai did not get angry at Yang Jian’s attitude but continued smiling and explaining, ”Above the East Sea, an audacious demon monkey has emerged, causing chaos in the Dragon Palace and Underworld, and both the Dragon King and King Yan have lodged complaints to the Heavenly Court.”

”The Immortal of Colossal Spirit was commanded to lead a hundred thousand Heavenly Soldiers on an expedition but was slaughtered by this demon monkey.”

”Hence, I request the Third Prince to act and subdue this demon monkey.” Gold Star Taibai recounted the details, showing a hint of helplessness in his expression.

”Even though the Immortal of Colossal Spirit lost his physical body, his strength is also of the Daluo Realm, yet he was defeated by a single monkey?”

Nezha looked utterly astonished, his eyes widening slightly in surprise.

He truly found it hard to imagine that a single monkey could possess such capability, able to defeat the Immortal of Colossal Spirit from the Daluo Realm.

Gold Star Taibai sighed slightly and said, ”I won’t hide it from you two; this monkey is extraordinary, the initiator of a great calamity.”

”Furthermore, it is the Buddha’s arrangement.”

”Capture but do not kill.”

”In any case, I hope the Third Prince will act to capture this demon monkey.”

”Of course, as long as the Third Prince acts, Your Majesty will certainly have rewards.”

”As for Heavenly King Li, the Heavenly Court will no longer interfere.”

All the while, Gold Star Taibai subtly monitored Nezha and Yang Jian’s reactions, his final words laden with profound meaning.

Having listened, Nezha turned his head toward Yang Jian, his eyes full of inquiries.

Yang Jian nodded slightly, giving Nezha an affirmative look.

With Yang Jian’s response, Nezha said to Gold Star Taibai, ”When should I act?”

Evidently.

Nezha accepted the conditions offered by the Heavenly Court.

All that was required was to act, and completion was not stipulated.

Gold Star Taibai’s eyes gleamed with delight as he hurriedly replied, ”The hundred thousand Heavenly Soldiers and Generals of the Heavenly River are already assembled; the Third Prince should embark immediately.”

”Alright.” Nezha agreed without hesitation.

”The Heavenly Court had better not break its word; as long as I act, it’s agreed upon.” Nezha gazed steadfastly at Gold Star Taibai.

”Please rest assured, Third Prince; as long as you act, Your Majesty’s promise is true.”

”Thus, the Third Prince may proceed directly to the East Sea.”

Gold Star Taibai assured at once.

In his heart, he secretly rejoiced at the smooth progress of this mission.

The Heavenly Court, abandoning its interference with Li Jing as a bargaining chip to secure Nezha’s intervention, was undoubtedly a highly transactional deal.

How could a devalued Li Jing compare to Nezha with the peak fighting power of a Daluo Golden Immortal?

Nezha turned to Yang Jian and said, ”Second Brother, once I’ve dealt with that demon monkey, I’ll come back to drink with you.”

Yang Jian smiled slightly, lifting his wine cup and saying to Nezha, ”Brother, I’ll wait for you to return at Guan River Mouth.”

Then!
