Chapter 289 - 285 Sea Calming Pearl_2
Nezha scratched his head, grabbed the other’s collar with one hand, and raised an eyebrow as he said, "What’s there to understand? Even if the great way changes, am I supposed to stop living? Let me tell you, you better be prepared. I’m about to give you a good beating, but don’t worry. I’ve got medicine here. Once you take it, you’ll be bouncing back in no time. When you get home and see your mom, you have to be respectful. Otherwise, the next time I see you, it’ll be your corpse. Do you understand?"
Jinzha, having lived for almost half his life, had never seen someone as fierce and unreasonable as Nezha. He could only nod like a pecking chick and swore in his heart, Nezha, you better not give me a chance in the future, or else... But Nezha’s punch had already landed.
Back in Outer World Town.
The Li Mansion was ablaze with activity, drums beating and gongs clashing, the entire town festooned with lanterns and decorations.
Nezha himself wasn’t the one being celebrated. This was to welcome back the eldest son of the Li Mansion, Li Jinzha, who had returned after years of learning on the Immortal Mountain.
As for Nezha, he was only fit to be worshipped on the household altars of the townspeople, getting some incense alongside their ancestors during the holidays.
The monks said that this power of faith was continuous and brought immense benefits. Nezha remarked that he hadn’t felt much of it himself, and he asked the monk, you travel the world, saving people. You should have quite a number of temples and statues, right?
The monk replied that he had none. He was often beaten by people instead.
Ao Yu asked if it could be that bad, and Jiang Xiao nodded, saying it was indeed that bad. The monk then explained that each time he got beaten, he would sit down, activate his Unmoving Ming King Dharma Body, and chant to dissolve others’ sins. Those who were hitting him would get tired and stop since they couldn’t hurt him.
Jiang Xiao interjected, saying that they didn’t stop because they were tired, but because they were scared off by his eeriness. She was the only one not afraid of him.
