Chapter 90 Great Opportunity
"Second Master, you are finally back! Third Sister has woken up, but she won't let us in, and she doesn't want to come out either. She is just crying in there alone."
As soon as the Meishan brothers saw Yang Jian, they hurried to greet him with worried looks on their faces.
Yang Jian went forward and knocked on the door, calling out, "Third sister? Third sister?"
The crying in the quiet room stopped for a while.
Then, the door opened, and the Third Holy Mother threw herself into Yang Jian's arms, crying loudly: "Second brother! The Fourth Princess is dead!"
"It's all my fault! If I had insisted a little longer and let Brother Li and Nezha stay in the West Sea Dragon Palace for a while longer, this wouldn't have happened! It's all my fault!"
Yang Jian patted the back of the Third Holy Mother with a distressed look on his face and said, "Third sister, in this world, there is only a thief who can steal for a thousand days, but there is no such thing as a thousand days of guarding against thieves. The bad guys did bad things, how can you blame the good guys for not doing things perfectly? That nine-headed monster is determined to hurt people, even if the fourth princess escaped this time, she can't escape the next time."
The Third Holy Mother's crying gradually turned into sobbing, and she was obviously thinking about what Yang Jian said.
Yang Jian waited for a while before taking out the Precious Lotus Lantern and said, "Look at what this is."
The Third Holy Mother looked up, a look of disbelief suddenly appeared on her face, and she cried out, "Fourth Princess?! Second Brother, what's going on?"
Yang Jian smiled and said, "Although the Nine-Headed Insect killed the Fourth Princess, it did not completely disperse her soul. I just went to the West Sea and collected her remaining soul."
Yang Jian said it lightly, but only he knew how heavy a price he paid was.
"Great! Great!"
The Third Holy Mother held the Precious Lotus Lantern in her arms, tears streaming down her face as she kept saying, "Thank you, second brother! Thank you, second brother!"
"Silly girl." Yang Jian gently stroked the head of the Third Holy Mother, with a faint smile on his face, "Okay, stop crying."
The Third Holy Mother hummed and smiled through her tears: "Second brother is the best! By the way, second brother, when will the fourth princess wake up?"
Yang Jian said: "The fourth princess's soul has just condensed. It will probably take a hundred years for her to regain consciousness. During this time, it is best for her to stay in the Precious Lotus Lantern."
"The Precious Lotus Lantern is a magic weapon bestowed upon you by the goddess Nuwa. It has the function of nourishing your vitality. It is best for her to stay inside."
Seeing that the Third Holy Mother was a little disappointed after hearing the hundred years, Yang Jian added: " If want the Fourth Princess to wake up as soon as possible, it is not impossible. However, that requires you to work hard to be a good earthly immortal. The merits bestowed by the Heavenly Dao can also speed up the Fourth Princess' recovery."
Yang Jian traveled to the West Sea with great effort, and used up his merits to gather Long Si's almost scattered soul again.
It is one thing to not be able to bear to see the Three Holy Mothers sad because of the death of their friend.
On the other hand, it is also to make the Third Holy Mother take her role as a terrestrial immortal seriously.
Merit is secondary. He has been a terrestrial immortal in Guanjiangkou for ten thousand years, and the merit accumulated is enough.
The more important purpose is to temper the character of the Third Holy Mother and let her mature slowly.
If anything happens to him in the future, the Three Holy Mothers will be able to take care of themselves.
With Li Anran, Nezha and the Meishan brothers taking care of you, there will be nothing to worry about.
Sure enough, when the Third Holy Mother heard what Yang Jian said, she nodded vigorously and regained her energy and enthusiasm: "Second brother, don't worry! I will definitely be a good earth immortal and wake up the fourth princess as soon as possible."
On the other hand, after Li Anran returned to the Heavenly Prison, he began to practice in seclusion.
A stone from another mountain can be used to polish a jade!
The body-building method taught to Jiu Tou Chong by the demon master Kunpeng is also very useful to him, and is of great benefit to his practice of the Nine Revolutions Yuan Gong.
Time passes quickly at times like this, and in the blink of an eye, another month has passed.
Li Anran's Nine Revolutions Yuan Gong finally broke through to the fourth revolution level.
Physical strength, physical power, recovery ability, reaction speed, etc. have all been comprehensively improved.
If he were to go back to the Huashan Villa and fight the green-haired lion monster now, he would be confident of winning even without using any formation.
During this period, the Third Holy Mother came to the Heavenly Prison to find Li Anran, wanting to thank him for his help during his two visits to the mortal world.
After learning that Li Anran was practicing in seclusion, the Three Holy Mothers did not disturb him anymore.
He only left a message, telling Li Anran that the Fourth Princess Long was not dead, and invited Li Anran to visit Huashan Villa in his spare time, then rode a cloud to the Dragon Palace in the East China Sea.
He first told the Dragon King of the East China Sea about the story of Long Si, and then returned to Huashan Villa and began to actively fulfill his duties as a terrestrial immortal.
Before, the Third Holy Mother regarded this task more as a pastime to relieve boredom when she was free.
Now, he really wants to be a good earthly immortal and accumulate more merits so that Long Si can wake up soon.
The Dragon King of the East Sea is more knowledgeable than the Three Holy Mothers and knows how difficult it is to collect the residual souls as Yang Jian said casually.
He also saw that the Third Holy Mother not only used the Precious Lotus Lamp to nourish Long Si's remaining soul, but was also prepared to use her merits to heal Long Si's injuries. He was extremely grateful and spared no effort to help the Third Holy Mother perform her duties as an earthly immortal.
As a result, the Three Holy Mothers of Mount Hua have done better and better, and have become famous in the mortal world, with strong incense and many believers.
This is a later story, so let’s not go into it for now.
It is said that after learning that Li Anran had been released from confinement, Boss Kang came to the Heavenly Prison and asked Li Anran how he planned to deal with the Nine-Headed Insect and the father and daughter of the Halloween Dragon King.
The way Nine-headed Insect and his companions killed the Fourth Princess of the East China Sea was different from the way Nezha killed the Third Prince of the East China Sea.
Long San was the "God who creates clouds, rain and gives birth to all things" officially canonized by the Heavenly Court, while Long Si did not serve as the Dragon King of rivers.
To be honest, this matter is not a big deal at all, and it is not too common in the Three Realms.
It was just bad luck for the Nine-headed Insect to run into the good relationship between Long Si and San Sheng Mu, otherwise he would at most be wanted by the Four Seas Dragon Palace, or even just be left in vain.
Li Anran wanted to listen to Kunpeng's sermons a few more times, and didn't want to be cut like this.
As a result, the Nine-Headed Insect was spared and imprisoned in the Heavenly Prison to be tortured.
The Halloween Dragon King and the Halloween Princess were sent to the Dragon Slaying Platform on charges of colluding with evil spirits and plotting to murder the gods.
Afterwards, additional rewards were drawn.
[You have gained the recovery ability of the All-Hallowed Dragon King.]
【You got the Dragon Ball of Princess Halloween. 】
The Halloween Dragon King is nothing more than a four-clawed brown dragon with the cultivation level of a peak True Immortal.
His recovery ability is no longer enough for Li Anran today and can only be considered better than nothing.
However, Princess Halloween's dragon ball can be used to refine the heart-searching bead in the future, which is still of some use.
Thinking of the Heart-Searching Pearl, Li Anran thought of Nezha again and asked, "Brother Kang, how is Brother Nezha doing now?"
Boss Kang said, "He has been following Li Jing to catch monsters in the lower world recently, so you don't have to worry. If Li Jing wants to continue to make meritorious deeds, he can't do without Brother Nezha, so he doesn't dare to do anything to Brother Nezha."
After all, Nezha is a disciple of Taiyi Jiuku Tianzun. As Nezha's father, Li Jing can scold and beat him, but he dare not really do anything to Nezha!
But even so, Li Anran still felt a little unhappy.
Nezha cut off his flesh to return to his mother and his bones to return to his father, was almost killed by the smashing of his golden statue, and charged to the front in the Conferred Gods War. After the Conferred God War, he made many contributions and helped Li Jing become the Great Marshal of Demon Subjugation...
I have already repaid enough for the grace of giving birth to me!
But he still has to be constrained by the father-son relationship, how fucked up!
"If I have a chance in the future, I will definitely help Brother Nezha get rid of this vampire Li Jing!"
Li Anran made up his mind.
Regardless of how Nezha treats others, he is the best person ever and he never hides anything when they discuss or give advice.
He can be considered one of his good friends in Heaven .
After talking about the Nine-headed Insect and Nezha, Boss Kang took out an imperial edict from his arms and said, "Brother Li, the Second Master has something else for you to do ."
When Li Anran took the imperial edict and looked at it, a look of surprise appeared on his face.
The content of the decree was that two snake and scorpion monsters escaped from the seal on the Calabash Mountain because a pangolin broke through their seal and caused trouble to the people.
Yang Jian asked Li Anran to go and help the God of Hulu Mountain to suppress the two monsters again.
Li Anran: ??? Why does this sound so much like Calabash Brothers?
Elder Kang said in a low voice: "Brother Li, the Second Master said that this matter is not as simple as it seems, but a great opportunity. When you arrive, you don't have to do anything. Just do whatever the mountain god asks you to do. After you succeed, it will be of great benefit to you."
Li Anran: “…Okay.”
Li Anran knew that Yang Jian would not lie to him, so he suppressed the strange feeling in his heart, left the Tianlao Palace, and flew towards Hulu Mountain.
