Upon hearing this, Nezha quickly ran in and said:
"Father! Have you found out who was behind this?"
Li Jing shook his head and said, "Not yet. But why did you suddenly ask about this, you little brat?"
Nezha puffed out his chest and said:
"Of course it's to vanquish demons and avenge those people!"
Upon hearing this, Li Jing smiled, then a hint of relief appeared on his face, and he said:
"Your idea is good, but this matter is indeed difficult to handle."
Since I came back, I have been trying to find out the origin of those bird demons.
Even though I dug up some old cases, I still couldn't find anything similar.
Those bird demons are birds of prey, making it difficult for us to catch them.
This is why we have absolutely no way of figuring out their origins!
Upon hearing this, Nezha spoke up:
"Father, do you have any powerful fellow disciples or fellow cultivators?"
We could actually ask them, and if that doesn't work, we could always try contacting my master!
Upon hearing this, Li Jing's eyes suddenly lit up, and he said:
"Oh right, how could I forget about that!"
At this moment, Nezha spoke again:
"Moreover, Father, these things happened near our Chentang Pass."
Therefore, the person they are looking for should be near Chentang Pass.
Ideally, it should be someone with considerable cultivation; that way, there's a chance we'd know who it is.
After listening, Li Jing nodded and said:
"That's right, you're absolutely right. There aren't any nearby, or even too close."
However, on Skull Mountain, I do have a fellow Daoist, a fellow Daoist with whom I once listened to the Dao.
We've gotten to know each other a bit, since we live relatively close by.
Although there hasn't been much communication over the years, that Fellow Daoist Shiji has already attained immortality and reached the Dao.
His strength far surpasses that of his father.
"Alright then, your father will make a trip to Skull Mountain!"
Upon hearing this, Nezha frowned and said:
"Father, this Skull Mountain... it doesn't sound like the righteous path at all!"
Li Jing: "Uh... that's true, but Fellow Daoist Shiji is a decent person, and Skull Mountain, where she is, isn't that scary."
"Alright, go and tell them that I'll be right back!"
Nezha: "Okay, I'll go tell my mother right away!"
..........................................
Two days later, at Chentang Pass, Li Jing sat in the main hall with a grim expression.
Madam Yin: "Master, what's wrong? What happened? Why are you like this as soon as you come back?"
Upon hearing this, Li Jing said with a gloomy expression:
"Sigh! This time when I went to Senior Sister Shiji's place, I did get enough information."
But it's precisely this news that's putting me in a bit of a dilemma!
Nezha: "Father! Could it be that you know who the murderer is?"
Upon hearing this, Li Jing nodded and said in a deep voice:
"I do know, and this person is on Skull Mountain!"
Upon hearing this, Madam Yin's expression changed, and she said:
"It wouldn't be yours, sir..."
Li Jing shook his head and said:
"You're overthinking it. It's not what you think; it's someone else entirely."
However, he also lived in Skull Mountain.
"Madam, you've seen Skull Mountain, so you should know what it looks like."
Lady Yin: "Skull Mountain, a small part of Skull Mountain, is lush with trees and full of spiritual energy."
If it weren't for the name, it could easily be called a blessed land of immortals.
However, on the other side, there were jagged rocks, barren land, and many skeletons among them.
Inside, the air was thick with malevolent energy, making it seem like a desolate and dangerous place.
It is precisely because of the situation there that it is called Skull Mountain.
After hearing this, Madam Yin pondered for a moment and said:
"Could it be that guy is right there?"
Li Jing nodded, and then said:
"It's over there, in one of those caves."
Upon hearing this, Nezha immediately said:
"Now that we've found him, why don't we just go and wipe him out!"
Li Jing: "If it were that simple, that would be great."
The person who made this move was exceptionally powerful, and was also a formidable demon.
That guy called himself the One Qi Immortal, and his name was Ma Yuan.
His strength is extremely formidable. According to Fellow Daoist Shiji, his strength has reached the level of a True Immortal.
Furthermore, its favorite thing is to devour people's hearts, and it also has a very powerful supernatural ability.
It is said that it was because of this supernatural power that he managed to kill several Xuanxian when he was in the True Immortal realm.
Although he was just a Xuanxian without any lineage or who wasn't good at fighting, it was enough to demonstrate how powerful this guy was.
We don't even have a single immortal on our side; we simply can't win!"
After listening, Nezha pondered for a moment and said:
"Father, can't that Lady Shiji make a move?"
Upon hearing this, Li Jing shook his head with a wry smile and said:
"No, I asked her, but she refused to help, it seems there's something wrong."
She didn't want to get involved in the calamity, so she didn't agree.
Furthermore, according to Senior Sister Shiji, she needs to prepare for a breakthrough, so she's even less likely to provoke that guy.
Upon hearing this, Nezha was secretly delighted, thinking to himself:
"Great! Now I can put my plan into action!"
Thinking of this, Nezha looked at everyone present and realized they were all at a loss.
Then he spoke up, saying, "Well, Dad, just because we can't do it doesn't mean others can't!"
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone looked over.
“Zha’er, what do you mean by that?” Madam Yin asked.
Upon hearing this, Nezha immediately said:
"Since we can't beat them, can we find someone else? We can put up a notice and tell everyone directly."
When the time comes, the rest of our human race will find out and we can ask them to come and help!
I believe that the rest of our human race will definitely lend a helping hand!
Chapter 467 Yang Jian's Proposal
Upon hearing this, everyone present looked over.
At this moment, Madam Yin also spoke up:
"Yes, sir! We have quite a few experts among our ranks. If those people knew about us, perhaps we could easily deal with these guys!"
Upon hearing this, everyone present nodded thoughtfully.
On the other side, Li Jing narrowed his eyes and said:
"Madam, do you really think this is feasible?"
Madam Yin nodded and said:
“That’s right, sir. We have no other choice in this matter, do we?”
Moreover, my husband and I simply don't have the ability to deal with a true immortal.
Moreover, he's someone skilled in combat!
After hearing this, Li Jing pondered for a moment and said:
"In that case, let's give it a try! I'll post the notice right away!"
With Li Jing's agreement, Nezha's face broke into a bright smile.
"Mother, do you think our human race's experts will really return?"
Lady Yin, holding Nezha, said with a smile:
"Yes, and not only highly skilled individuals, but even those who can exorcise demons and monsters will step in!"
