304: Chapter 191 Really a Demon_6 304: Chapter 191 Really a Demon_6 Nezha also ascended to heaven, where he took up residence in the Judicial Deity Mansion, hardly feeling any difference between above and below, save for the times when he wasn’t fighting demons, which were quite dull.
Soon, an unexpected visitor arrived.
The barks-at-heaven dog was the one to open the door, but upon seeing the visitor, it immediately shut it tight.
Outside, Li Jing’s face darkened.
It had taken a lot for him to muster up the courage to come here to admit his wrongs before Nezha, and he couldn’t simply return like this.
“Open this door.”
Li Jing ordered.
Only then did the barks-at-heaven dog, with visible annoyance, open the door and look at Li Jing sideways, asking, “What’s with all the noise?
Do you believe I’d beat you up?”
Li Jing’s face turned even darker.
This dog was becoming ever more insolent.
At that moment, Yang Jian noticed that the person at the door was none other than Li Jing.
He smiled and then stepped outside.
“Barks-at-heaven, don’t be disrespectful to the Pagoda-Bearing King.
Your Majesty, please come in.
This dog is ignorant; I ask that you don’t take offense at his words,” Yang Jian said with a courteous smile.
Nezha sat to the side, giving Li Jing a sidelong glance, deep in thought.
Li Jing was well aware that now Yang Jian held the position of Judicial Deity, with a status not to be spoken of in the same breath as before.
He wasn’t going to put on airs, so he followed Yang Jian inside.
Upon seeing Nezha, Li Jing felt as though struck by a jolt.
He glanced at Yang Jian and said with a wry smile, “Judicial Deity, could I have a few words alone with Nezha?”
Yang Jian thought for a moment, then replied, “That won’t do.
I’d better stay here.
I’m afraid that if I leave, he might start a fight and kill you.”
Pagoda-Bearing King: “...”
He wanted to object, but he realized that he couldn’t refute Yang Jian.
What Yang Jian had mentioned was a possibility, and not an insignificant one at that.
If he dared to leave the two of them here, without any surprises, Nezha would definitely take action and finish off Li Jing.
Thinking this, the Pagoda-Bearing King promptly said, “The Judicial Deity is right; please stay, Judicial Deity.”
Yang Jian: “...”
This revealed the extent of fear that the Pagoda-Bearing King harbored in his heart towards Nezha.
Yang Jian was speechless, wondering how Li Jing still dared to come knocking despite such fear.
Li Jing gathered his courage and said to Nezha, “Nezha, your father misses you.”
Nezha glanced at him sideways, not speaking a word, and snorted coldly through his nose.
Li Jing swallowed hard and tried again, “The father king realizes he was wrong before.
Therefore, I will not treat you that way in the future.
Please forgive your father, I will be a good father from now on.”
Nezha looked at Li Jing intently, his gaze somewhat peculiar.
“What exactly do you want to say?”
Nezha asked indifferently.
Only then did Li Jing say, “Your father wants you to stay by his side, to enjoy the happiness of family reunion.”
Yang Jian watched this unfold, somewhat contemplative.
If what Li Jing said were true, how nice that would be.
With Yang Jian’s intelligence, he could clearly see Li Jing’s motives:
Having Nezha at his side constituted a completely different scenario compared to not having him.
It could be said that at least sixty percent of the Pagoda-Bearing King’s renown was established through Nezha’s battles.
Without Nezha by his side, his reputation declined more and more.
That was why he wanted Nezha back at his side—to restore his former glory.
Nezha chuckled lightly, his expression one of disdain.
“Are things getting tough, and now you want my help again?
Sorry, can’t do.”
Nezha said flatly, not hesitating for a moment, outright rejecting him.
Li Jing’s face shifted slightly as he responded with a bitter smile, “You really won’t consider helping me a little?
We are, after all, father and son.”
Nezha’s expression turned mocking.
He said with scorn, “Don’t think I don’t know that you only consider us father and son when you can use me.
When you feel I am no longer of use to you, you think I’m less than trash.”
Li Jing truly had no argument to counter.
That was exactly what he had done.
No wonder Nezha was unwilling to help him; anyone else in his shoes would likely feel the same.
Li Jing opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something in his defense but found that he could say nothing at all.
“You really can’t forgive your father and give him a chance to make amends?”
Li Jing closed his eyes, his face etched with pain.
Nezha laughed out loud, his words dripping with sarcasm: “The chance to make amends, I can’t give to you, but an opportunity to send you to your death, I can offer for free.”
Li Jing: “...”
He wanted to tell Nezha, I thank you, you’re such a dutiful son, almost sending me off to the grave with your filial piety.
Li Jing took a deep breath, ultimately choosing not to curse his own luck.
He stood up, feeling utterly dejected, and left the place.
“Nezha, why didn’t you just kill him just now?”
Yang Jian suddenly asked.
Nezha’s eyes lit up, and he excitedly asked, “Big brother, you agree that I should kill him?”
Yang Jian replied indifferently, “Not exactly, I was just disgusted by him.
I never imagined there could be such a disgusting person in the world.”
The Pagoda-Bearing King was so revolting that one might feel like vomiting.
Of course, Yang Jian was just speaking rhetorically.
If Nezha had made a move, he certainly would have intervened.
As a father, Li Jing’s hypocrisy was nauseating.
Nezha nodded with apparent agreement, laughing as he said, “I never expected you to share this view, big brother.
But after this, he probably won’t come to find me again, and in the future, we can enjoy some peace and quiet.”
“Let’s hope so,”
Yang Jian was not hopeful.
If Li Jing continued to show up incessantly, he would have to find a way to stop him from harassing Nezha.
Compared to the bustling Ziwei Heavenly Court, the other three among the Four Heavenly Kings seemed somewhat deserted.
They too had quieted down, neither acknowledging the Ziwei Heavenly Court nor engaging in conflicts with it anymore.
