Lao Tzu is Ji Gong

"Alright!" Although Qiao Ling'er wanted to stay a little longer, seeing that Bi You was in pain, she had no choice but to give up and hurriedly helped Bi You leave "Hundred Immortals Pavilion".

In fact, Fairy Biyou's heart only hurt for a moment and the pain had already subsided, but seeing Qiao Ling'er's absent-minded appearance, she couldn't help but lie. For some reason, she didn't want to hear anything about the white lotus.

Nie Feng chased Nezha for three days and three nights before finally spotting him. Upon seeing him, he eagerly rushed forward, wanting to capture Nezha and return to claim his reward.

Nie Feng was very confident in his strength because Nezha and the gods' primordial spirits had been sealed by Wutian.

Therefore, at this moment, he is no match for him. Nie Feng's strength is indeed good, but he has a fatal weakness, which is excessive pride and self-confidence.

It was precisely because of this weakness that he managed to provoke Nie Feng when Nezha was about to be defeated, thus enabling him to escape successfully.

Nezha, who had been forced into a corner, suddenly had a flash of inspiration and stopped in his tracks: "Nie Feng, do you know why you're not as valued as Bu Jingyun?"

"Why?" Nie Feng was indeed stumped by Nezha's question and stopped in his tracks.

"Why? It's because you're stupid! Bu Jingyun is smart!" Nezha did this to deliberately provoke Nie Feng, so that he would have a chance of winning.

"What did you say? Say it again, you brat, and I'll give you a beating!" Nie Feng was already dissatisfied with Bu Jingyun, and when Nezha brought it up again, reopening his wounds, his anger flared up even more.

“Bu Jingyun is smarter than you, smarter than you, and better at pleasing Wutian Buddha.” Nezha’s words calmed Nie Feng’s anger once again.

"What did you say? Bu Jingyun is trying to please Wutian Buddha? Saying good things about him?" I knew it! How could Wutian Buddha trust him so much? It turns out he's been doing all this behind the scenes! At this moment, Nie Feng immediately filled in the blank that Wutian valued Bu Jingyun because Bu Jingyun had spoken ill of Nie Feng behind his back.

Chapter 1003 Lotus Falls to the Streets

"You big fool, you've been tricked, haha! I'm leaving now! Bye-bye!" Seeing Nie Feng stop thinking and look at him with a knowing expression, Nezha flew away from Nie Feng.

There was a cliff in front of him, and Nie Feng was hot on his heels behind him. Nezha was caught in a dilemma. After a moment's thought, he jumped off the cliff.

Nie Feng watched as Nezha jumped off the cliff in front of him. Looking down, he saw only white mist, making it impossible to see the bottom. After a moment's thought, he followed Nezha and jumped in as well.

Anyway, he was determined to fight Nezha to the end, and this time he wouldn't be soft-hearted or listen to his nonsense anymore.

The two Buddhas, Wutian and Tianlong, fought from the Western Paradise to the main hall of the Heavenly Court, and then back to the main hall of the Western Paradise. They fought fiercely and evenly, but still could not determine who was superior.

The two fought for several days and nights, unaware of anything that happened in the next realm. They only knew that they were both exhausted and disheveled when they finally sat down in the main hall, facing each other and smiling.

"If you truly help me, we could really be friends! It seems we two have quite a tacit understanding." Wu Tian pulled out a wine gourd from his waist, took a big gulp, and then randomly handed the gourd to the Heavenly Dragon Buddha opposite him.

"I don't drink alcohol." Tianlong Buddha took the gourd, looked at it, and then threw it to Wutian.

"You really haven't tasted it, you don't know how wonderful it is! If you don't want to drink it, then forget it! I'm leaving!" Wutian glanced at Tianlong Buddha and said sarcastically.

He then tilted his head back and took a big gulp of wine, before turning around and disappearing from the sight of the Heavenly Dragon Buddha.

Tianlong Buddha felt something was amiss. Why were the two people's techniques so similar, and their martial arts routines were exactly the same? Could this be another conspiracy? Tianlong Buddha couldn't help but suspect.

After thinking for a long time, he still couldn't figure out the reason, so he had to give up, turned around, and left the Heavenly Court.

As soon as Wutian Buddha returned to the Demon Realm, he found Bu Jingyun and Vegeta waiting in the main hall. Just as Wutian entered the hall, Bu Jingyun called him back.

"Buddha Wutian, Nezha has been released from the underworld by Ayinava." Bu Jingyun looked at Buddha Wutian, terrified, but had no choice but to step forward and report.

"Oh? You let him go? What about that good-for-nothing?" Wutian Buddha picked up a comb and slowly combed his long hair.

This scene made Vegeta and Bu Jingyun's hearts rise and fall. Wutian was known for his fiery temper, and neither of them dared to cross him at this critical moment. It seemed that Wutian Buddha was clearly angry.

"Reporting to Buddha Wutian, Ayinava let Nezha go, so I killed him. Nie Feng is now chasing after Nezha!" Vegeta reported to Wutian with a forced smile. If they remained silent, and Buddha Wutian's patience ran out, their situation would become even worse.

At this moment, Vegeta and Bu Jingyun both regretted not sparing Aiñava's life. Even letting Wutian Buddha vent his anger on them would have been better!

"What happened?" After descending from the Heavenly Court, the Heavenly Dragon Buddha came to find Wutian immediately. As soon as he found him, he noticed that the faces of the group were grim, indicating that something bad had happened.

"Nothing! You two, hurry up and get out of here." Wu Tian glanced at the two of them, but that glance was unusually cold. Only after the two of them left did they belatedly realize that their bodies were trembling.

Did they escape unscathed? Luckily, the Buddha Wutian arrived in time, otherwise, who knows what kind of punishment they would have received! Just imagining the methods of the Buddha Wutian is enough to send chills down one's spine.

Bai Lianhua was penniless and starving on the street when she suddenly smelled the aroma of steamed buns. She couldn't help but swallow and couldn't bear to leave the freshly baked buns, her stomach rumbling with hunger.

However, she is penniless now, and she cannot bring herself to rob these ordinary people. But obviously, it is impossible for her to rob a corrupt official.

Sometimes fate just comes so suddenly!

Qiao Ling'er and Fairy Biyou happened to be on this street. Qiao Ling'er glanced in the direction of the white lotus, but suddenly felt a sense of disorientation. She saw that the woman's face was covered by a veil, with only her eyes showing. This was not the white lotus.

For a moment, he thought the woman was a white lotus flower! Upon closer inspection, the two women's eyes were completely different, only their figures were somewhat similar. The white lotus flower had very beautiful phoenix eyes, while this woman's eyes were indeed not very attractive.

"Boss, two steamed buns, please." Qiao Ling'er suddenly walked in and said to the steamed bun vendor, then turned to look at Bai Lianhua and said:

"Miss, would you like some steamed buns? Here you go." Qiao Ling'er had just noticed that the girl was staring at the steamed buns while covering her stomach with her other hand, so she knew that the girl was hungry. She probably reached out to take the buns but didn't have any money, so she went up and asked for two steamed buns and stuffed them into Bai Lianhua's hands.

He knew all too well what it felt like to be hungry, so when he saw the woman who resembled Bai Lianhua, he couldn't help but go up and help her.

"Thank you, young master." Bai Lianhua stared at the bun in her hand for a long time, hesitating. On the one hand, she was unwilling to accept Qiao Ling'er's charity, and on the other hand, she was really too hungry.

After thinking for a long time, Bai Lianhua finally abandoned her pride and began to wolf down the neck she was holding, though her eyes were filled with tears.

"Girl, why are you crying?" Qiao Ling'er felt a pang of heartache at the sight of Bai Lianhua's tears. For some reason, he didn't want to see the woman in front of him cry, perhaps because she resembled Bai Lianhua!

"It's nothing, I'm just so touched. No one has ever been so kind to me before." Bai Lianhua wiped away her tears, lowered her head, and said awkwardly, not daring to look at Qiao Ling'er.

"Miss, are you all alone? If you don't mind, why don't you travel with me?" Qiao Ling'er realized what she had said and wanted to bite off her own head. She still needed to find the lotus! How could she have forgotten about that?

"Wouldn't that be too much trouble for you, young master?" Bai Lianhua asked.

Chapter 1004 Ling'er's Thoughts

"It's no trouble at all, it's fine," Qiao Ling'er replied shyly, wondering if doing so would seem a bit presumptuous.

Bai Lianhua originally didn't want to trouble Qiao Ling'er, but after hearing what he said, a glimmer of hope rose in her heart. Perhaps there was nothing between him and that girl?

Now she's disfigured again, but that's for the best. This way, even the people who know her best won't recognize her, which avoids a lot of trouble.

"But that girl..." Bai Lianhua looked at Bi You standing next to Qiao Ling'er and asked in a low voice.

"I'm fine, miss, don't worry." Biyou carefully examined Bai Lianhua and made a comparison in her mind. Although this woman's face was covered by a veil, her eyes were the kind of small green eyes, and her skin was not very good. Although she could not see her whole face, she could tell that this woman's appearance was coarse.

So she didn't care too much. Since it was a family left behind by Qiao Ling'er, Biyou naturally wouldn't refuse.

Qiao Ling'er took Bai Lianhua back to the inn they had just found, intending to search for Bai Lianhua again early the next morning. Qiao Ling'er had no idea that the woman in front of her, who looked so much like Bai Lianhua, was actually Bai Lianhua.

All three of them tossed and turned all night, each preoccupied with their own thoughts. Qiao Ling'er and Biyou Fairy were preoccupied with Bai Lianhua, while Bai Lianhua's thoughts were on the other two.

The next morning, Qiao Ling'er got up and washed up. At the same time, the other two also got up. After breakfast, the three of them agreed to go and find the white lotus flower.

Meanwhile, the real White Lotus was standing nearby, watching Qiao Ling'er and Fairy Biyou's conversation. She felt extremely awkward. The person they were looking for was right there with them, but they didn't know it. She also couldn't let Qiao Ling'er know that she was the White Lotus.

"Young master, who are you looking for?" Bai Lianhua suddenly asked.

“She’s a very good friend of mine. She’s very important to me, and I must find her.” Qiao Ling’er didn’t think there was anything wrong with what she said, but after she finished speaking, she saw that the two women were stunned.

Bai Lianhua was deeply moved. She hadn't expected Qiao Ling'er to value her so much and still be searching for her. She felt immense regret for how she had treated Qiao Ling'er, starving him to death.

Hearing Qiao Ling'er's words, Fairy Biyou felt a bitter taste in her mouth and a heavy feeling in her chest. She didn't know why she was in this state again, just as she didn't know when Qiao Ling'er and Bai Lianhua's relationship had become so good.

"Why are you two looking at me like that?" Qiao Ling'er looked at the two women strangely. What was wrong with them? Why were they suddenly acting so oddly?

"Young master, I think it's best if you don't look for her yet. I heard from others that Bai Lianhua is a wanted fugitive, and she's probably hiding somewhere now. No matter how hard you look, you won't find her." Bai Lianhua felt it was better not to make Qiao Ling'er make a wasted trip.

"That's right! Lotus must have multiplied to prevent the soldiers from finding her. How could I be so stupid!" Qiao Ling'er smacked her forehead and burst into laughter, feeling a huge weight lifted from her heart.

“Yes, yes, you’re right, Miss. Lotus must be hiding. Otherwise, she would definitely come looking for me. Maybe she’s watching us from somewhere right now!” Qiao Ling’er said immediately.

"Yes, young master is right." Bai Lianhua was in a daze for a moment, and suddenly felt a particularly unreal feeling. He silently breathed a sigh of relief. He couldn't let Qiao Ling'er keep searching, because he knew they would never find Bai Lianhua.

Qiao Ling'er believed Bai Lianhua's words, but she also began to have some doubts. They hadn't told her who the person they were looking for was. Why was she so destined to be Bai Lianhua?

The woman's intuition told her that something was wrong and that there was something wrong with this woman. Although she felt that Bai Lianhua was suspicious, Biyou didn't say anything. She didn't want to alert the woman before she knew what she was planning.

For the next few days, the three of them stayed obediently in the inn. Fairy Biyou must have been watching Bai Lianhua closely, but she made no move. Bai Lianhua was also a sensitive person.

Through Biyou Fairy's various actions, she knew that Biyou had begun to suspect her; she had been too hasty before.

Looking at the still innocent Qiao Ling'er, he knew nothing about what had happened between the two women. He only thought that the two women got along very well. Although the white lotus was not good-looking, she had a very familiar feeling to him.

After Nezha jumped off the cliff, he fell into a pool of water. The current in the pool was very rapid, and before Nezha could react, he was swept into a large black hole, where it gradually stopped.

Nezha stood up and realized that it was pitch black inside and he couldn't see anything clearly. He groped his way forward and walked for a long time. Suddenly, the space in front of him opened up and the room became bright.

The two rows of luminous pearls on the wall next to him emitted a dim light, illuminating the entire road. What appeared before Nezha was a dark and gloomy path, which seemed to have no end in sight.

Beside the path was a smooth, flat stone wall, with luminous pearls on the wall the size of pigeon eggs.

"Where is this?" Nezha secretly surveyed his surroundings as he walked forward. He had no idea that this place was a hidden paradise; he had discovered a cave after casually jumping off a cliff.

The cave here looks very ancient, with spider webs covering the surrounding area. Nezha had just observed it and found that there was a flood outside the cave, but for some reason, there was not a drop of water inside the cave, as if there was some kind of barrier that kept the floodwaters out.

Nezha, the Third Prince, walked along the path for about fifteen minutes. Suddenly, the view opened up before him, revealing a grand hall. The walls of the hall were covered with golden panels, making it look magnificent and dazzling.

A loud rumble suddenly came from afar, and the ground trembled in response.

....................

Chapter 1005 Encountering an Array

The sound grew closer, and a boulder came hurtling towards them. Nezha's eyes narrowed rapidly as he watched the boulder approach, cold sweat pouring down his back.

"Damn it, let's go!" he thought to himself.

Nezha turned and ran quickly, but the rolling stone was very fast and soon it was within arm's reach of him.

For some reason, there was a strange feeling that the closer you got, the slower the rolling stone seemed to move. The stone seemed to be following Nezha's steps, sometimes near and sometimes far.

To verify whether it was really as he thought, Nezha deliberately slowed down, only to find that the rolling stone also slowed down automatically. When he sped up, the rolling stone rolled even faster.

Nezha began to slow down, slower and slower, and the rolling stone followed suit, slowing down as well, always maintaining a distance of about ten meters.
