Chapter 253: Birth of Nezha

Translator: TransnEditor: Transn

One day, Li Jing was dealing with official affairs in the government office when a servant ran to him. Panting, he reported , ”Master, master, the lady is going to give birth the baby.” When Li Jing heard that, he was elated. His wife had been pregnant for three and half years. Finally, she was going to deliver the baby. Thus, he immediately put his business aside and went home at his top speed.

When he returned home, he heard the cries of Lady Yin coming from the bedroom. After a long time, she stopped crying. But the door was opened abruptly, and a panic maidservant rushed out. Li Jing asked anxiously, ”What's up? Does lady deliver the baby successfully? Is it a boy or a girl? Why haven't I heard the cry of the baby? Could it be...” When he finished asking, his face suddenly turned pale.

The maidservant was in a panic. Facing the inquiry of Li Jing, she was jittery. She stammered, ”Ma...Master, lady ga...gave bir...birth to a...a meatball.” The maidservant had been served Lady Yin all the time, she had thought that Lady Yin must have conceived a saint, but little did she think that it was a meatball. It totally freaked her out.

Upon hearing this, Li Jing's countenance changed sharply. He rushed into the room, only to see a red cloud of air with fragrance permeating the whole room. Within the room was a meatball, which was pink and tender, and looked like a wheel. Li Jing thought secretly, ”It must be a monster.” Suddenly, he pulled out his sword hung on his waist and wielded it toward the meatball, intending to kill it right here.

While he was about to kill the meatball, a Green Light flashed and protected the meatball. Clang! Li Jing's sword hit the Green Light and broke into two pieces suddenly. Li Jing's purlicue became numb because of the force bounced back from the sword. Seeing this scene, he was completely stunned for no other reason than seeing two people. To be precise, they were a human being and a demon.

The human being was a woman. She was of exquisite beauty and looked like a fairy who had descended to the world. Her temperament was noble. However, the demon was a monkey with a hairy face which looked like Thunder God. Although it wore a robe, it smiled all the time, which made people feel that it was frivolous at the first sight. The woman stood arm-in-arm with the demon monkey. It seemed quite strange.

They showed up without any sound, which shocked Li Jing. With the cultivation of Heavenly Immortals, he failed to notice them. Therefore, it proved that their cultivation was much higher than his. Moreover, they probably were the ones who had protected the meatball. Li Jing suddenly shouted, ”Who are you? Why did you intrude into my house? Is it your profound cultivation that makes you so rude?”

The monkey grinned at Li Jing and said, ”Haha, you're Li Jing, right? I heard that you've formally acknowledged Immortal Du'e of the Tribe of Humanity as your master. Even if it is your master, he should be polite and courteous in front of me. There's only one person named Xuandu among the Tribe of Humanity that I thought much of. The others could get no attention from me. Little did I expect that as a disciple of the third generation of the Tribe of Humanity, you're acting so rudely. You really helped me learn a lot.”

Li Jing was greatly shocked. The demon monkey easily figured out his mastership and even did not value his master Immortal Du'e much. Furthermore, he said that he only thought highly of Xuandu. Therefore, he may have a mysterious and profound background. Li Jing surely knew who was Xuandu. He was the only core disciple of the Tribe of Humanity. With profound cultivation, he was a Sage-to-be in Untainted Land. The monkey could directly speak his name. Perhaps he was also a Sage-to-be?

A Sage-to-be! Though Li Jing was the disciple of Immortal Du'e, he had never seen Taoist Xuan Du. Now, a Sage-to-be showed up in front of him. How could he stay calm? He once heard his master Immortal Du'e talking about some famous Sages-to-be in Untainted Land. How about the one stood in front of him? A monkey with the cultivation of a Sage-to-be, could it be...

Thinking about this, Li Jing was in a panic. The monkey must be Taoist Liu Er of the Blood Sea. No wonder Li Jing was freaking out. Laozi and Minghe had enmity against each other, now as a disciple of the Tribe of Humanity, how could he feel ease when Taoist Liu Er of the Blood Sea appeared in front of him? But now he had no choice but to resign himself to fate. He saluted nervously and respectfully, ”The disciple of the third generation of the Tribe of Humanity, Li Jing, pays his respects to Immortal Liu Er.”
