Only at the Mahayana Stage Does the Reversal System Appear - Chapter 257

Chapter 257: To learn the demon language

. Joining Buddhism doesn’t mean being heartless. Unsubdued Arhat is a deeply emotional Arhat. He chatted happily with the Four Dragon Kings, reminiscing about his experiences and insights in Buddhism over the years, and persuaded the four Dragon Kings to convert as well.

Then, there would be five Dragon Arhats, holding the dominant position within Buddhism.

The Four Dragon Kings were delighted to see their brothers, and heartwarmingly recalled their love-hate relationship with Penglai Island’s Master Mo. They persuaded Unsubdued Arhat to leave Buddhism and become the fifth Dragon King.

Then, he would be able to overpower Master Mo, and the entire Kyushu ocean would be under the control of the dragon clan.

The five true dragons laughed heartily, their voices clamoring, each one refusing to listen to the other.

Unsubdued Arhat and Li Nian’er looked at the five foolish dragons, and Li Nian’er hesitated to acknowledge the West Sea Dragon King as her uncle.

“Enlightened One.”

“Human Emperor.”

The Four Dragon Kings greeted Wuzhi and Jiang Li.

“How are the performance preparations going?”

“To ensure everything is flawless, we’re planning another rehearsal,” the East Sea Dragon King replied respectfully. “Will the Human Emperor be watching and correcting any mistakes?”

“No, I’ll leave some anticipation.” Jiang Li, distraught by the Duochi Kingdom’s New Year’s Eve party, longed to see a spectacular celebration.

The Four Seas Dragon Kings regretfully passed up this opportunity to bond with Jiang Li.

“Brother, you’ve made this special trip, what local specialties can you bring back?” The Four Seas Dragon Kings bid farewell to Jiang Li and the others, strolling through the makeshift shopping street.

The East Sea Dragon King pondered for a moment, then waved his hand, “Buy all the Human Emperor statues and place them at home.”

The Dragon Palace was brimming with wealth, and the overpriced statues looked like mere drops of water to them.

Jiang Li and Wu Zhi said goodbye. Li Nian’er still held a night-shining pearl in her hand, a gift from the West Sea Dragon King, asking her to play with it.

Jiang Li also spotted the furtive Li Er mingling with the crowd, seemingly searching for someone. Upon seeing Li Nian’er, he was like a drowning man finding a straw, clinging to it even at the last moment.

“My dear daughter, why did you run away? With you here, your mother would have been more considerate of you and less critical of me. The moment you left, your mother’s words would have been as numerous as the waters of the West Sea, unstoppable.”

“Daddy, please, stay with me, okay? Just for half a month!” Li Er vowed.

“Break up your ties with the women of the Bai Ze Dynasty, and I’ll agree,” Li Nian’er said expressionlessly, not feeling the slightest bit of pity for her father. She knew he had illicit affairs with several female demons from the Bai Ze Dynasty. Li Er

was stunned and said awkwardly, “You misunderstood. I was trying to learn the demon language. There are eagle demons among them, you know? Eagle language is incredibly difficult to learn…”

Li Nian’er remained silent, staring at her father.

Knowing he couldn’t get away with this, Li Er could only plead with Jiang Li with his eyes.

Jiang Li was puzzled, “Can’t I learn the demon language with my spiritual sense?”

He couldn’t count on him. Frustrated, Li Er spat blood. If Bai Hongtu were here, he could still provide cover, but with Jiang Li here, he wasn’t just a cover, he was a target.

Fight according to the heart.

With Jiang Li’s counter-assistance, Li Er could only resign himself to his fate, declaring that from today on, he would sever all ties with those female demons.

Li Nian’er’s expression shifted slightly, and she followed Li Er back.

“Come out,” Jiang Li suddenly said, as a young woman with dragon horns, who bore a passing resemblance to Li Nian’er, stepped out.

“Are you Li Er’s wife?”

“Meet the Human Emperor, Dragon Maiden Ao Chengcheng.”

“You were the one who told Nian’er about the female demons, weren’t you?”

“Yes,”

Jiang Li thought. As expected, Li Er had been deliberately concealing something. How could Li Nian’er possibly know what he had done? Someone else must have told her. The only

person who could know what a Tribulation Crossing Stage was hiding was his wife, the True Dragon Ao Chengcheng.

Jiang Li suspected that Ao Chengcheng didn’t want to expose the truth and completely destroy their relationship, so he discussed it with his daughter, using her as a tool to get Li Er to sever ties.

Ao Cheng had come here to test Li Er’s resolve; she wasn’t worried about him discovering her.

This is the Human Emperor Palace. Who dares to use their spiritual sense?

Anyone who uses their spiritual sense is suspected of spying on the Human Emperor Palace. Even someone as powerful as Li Er wouldn’t dare do so.

“Then you argued with him…”

“I was arguing with him for real, not pretending. I was genuinely angry,” Ao Chengcheng pouted unhappily, a bit childishly.

Jiang Li advised, “Don’t be too angry, Li Er has his reasons. He broke the Glazed Coral Tree you gave him, and he went through numerous trials and tribulations to obtain a fake one from the Cloud and Water Secret Realm, just to avoid your anger.”

Li Er, on the brink of immortality, suddenly became wary for some reason, as if something bad was about to happen.

“Really? Thank you, Human Emperor, for letting me know.” Ao Chengcheng sneered, rubbing his hands together, eager to have a proper conversation with Li Er.

Jiang Li walked a distance and discovered a temporary building surrounded by a formation that masked its presence. People were constantly entering and leaving, but Jiang Li couldn’t hide it. Jiang

Li sensed a lewd aura emanating from the building, as if a man and woman were engaging in sexual intercourse, comprehending the principles of yin and yang.

Before Jiang Li could make any move, he saw several guards from the Human Emperor Palace coming. They entered the building with a search warrant and arrested everyone inside.

Disciples of the Hehuan Sect and several guests.

Although the guests’ faces were covered, Jiang Li could still tell who they were.

Emperor Meng Jiang and Emperor Wei.

The two said they were discussing business inside.

Others saw this scene and lamented, wondering why the Human Emperor Palace acted so quickly. Before they could even enjoy the services of the Hehuan Sect, it was shut down.

The Hehuan Sect had only been open for half an hour!

“We are really just discussing business. Being n*ked shows that we are honest and open.” Emperor Meng Jiang and Emperor Wei said stubbornly, “Do you know the origin of the handshake? When two people meet, they are worried that they may have hidden weapons in their hands, so they shake hands to show that they are harmless. This is the basis of negotiation.”

“We follow the example of the ancients and take it a step further. This is something worth carrying forward.”

The guards were helpless. The two men were getting too aggressive. If they weren’t worried about the negative impact, they really wanted to take off their masks.

Fortunately, Emperor Mengjiang and Emperor Wei were only stubborn in words, but they were submissive in their hearts. After a few words, they left in disgrace.

Taoist Tianming saw this scene and saw the true faces of the two men through the masks. He thought this was big news and asked his newly accepted disciple Lu Kai to record the matter.

“Put this matter as a candidate for the Tianji Report and publish the portraits of the two emperors. Remember to censor them.”

“Currently censor their names?”

“Currently censor their faces.”

After warning the Hehuan Sect, the guards of the Human Emperor Palace were about to leave when they were stopped by Jiang Li.

“What’s going on?”

“To answer the Palace Master, a cultivator who received the Hehuan Sect’s service achieved great enlightenment and a clear mind. He felt that the Hehuan Sect was filthy and reported it to us.”

Jiang Li felt that this could be described in four words.
