Sun Wukong, who had a feeling that there was something fishy going on, immediately filled Nezha's glass with wine and called out to him to come over quickly.

"Brother Nezha, what's wrong? I've rarely seen you this angry!"

Nezha sat down angrily, picked up the wine glass and poured it into his mouth. He drank several glasses in a row before he finally seemed to calm down.

"Humph, don't mention it!"

Seeing Nezha coming and drinking several glasses of wine, Yang Jian was hesitant to speak.

He felt pain in his body and in his heart.

Is such a good special brew meant to be wasted like this?

Seeing that Nezha was going to continue pouring wine into his mouth, Yang Jian immediately became anxious.

He quickly snatched the wine jug from Nezha's hand and replaced it with the ordinary fairy wine prepared in the mansion.

Nezha was not angry. He didn't even look at the fairy wine in his hand. He opened it and put it into his mouth.

Sun Wukong stared at Nezha's boldness in amazement. He approached Yang Jian and whispered, "Our little brother Nezha must have been really upset! Look at him, he looks like he can't wait to get drunk to forget his worries!"

Yang Jian had some guesses. He stroked his chin, looked at the furious Nezha, and whispered to Sun Wukong, "It's probably related to Li Tianwang."

Sun Wukong, who had come here just because of Li Tianwang's strange behavior, raised his eyebrows.

Seeing that Nezha was about to continue drinking, he quickly snatched the wine jug away.

"Nezha, I, Old Sun, didn't ask you out to drown your sorrows in alcohol! Tell me, what exactly made you so angry?"

Nezha, whose mood had finally calmed down, sighed heavily after hearing what Sun Wukong said:

"Oh, I'm sorry, brother. It was supposed to be a rare occasion for the three of us to get together for a drink, which was considered a happy occasion, but I ended up making it like this."

"It's Li Tianwang again, right?" Yang Jian had an expression as if he had already seen through the truth of the matter.

Nezha nodded reluctantly.

Yes, that guy!

"Li Tianwang? What happened to him?" Sun Wukong pretended not to know the strange things he had heard about Li Jing before, and asked curiously.

At the mention of Li Jing, Nezha's face immediately turned sour. "What else could it be? I don't know what weird thing he got recently. Not only has his cultivation increased so much, but he's also taking advantage of it to order me around!"

If it weren't for Li Jing's increased cultivation, which caused Nezha to be suppressed even more severely by Li Jing's tower and forced to obey Li Jing's control, he would have stabbed Nezha to death with a Qiankun Circle long ago.

"That's impossible? Isn't it said that the gods on the Conferred God List can't make any progress in their strength and cultivation?" Sun Wukong immediately expressed his doubts.

Nezha nodded gloomily, "That's not true! I used to think that the restrictions on our true spirits in the Investiture of the Gods had been reduced, but... well, let's not talk about it."

Sun Wukong patted Nezha's shoulder and said comfortingly, "It seems that Li Tianwang has indeed obtained a great opportunity. I just don't know if he can release the spirits of the gods in the heavenly court from being controlled by the List of Conferred Gods."

"It shouldn't be possible. However, it is indeed strange that Li Tianwang's cultivation level suddenly increased." Yang Jian seemed to be relieved and called Sun Wukong and Nezha to come closer to him.

He lowered his voice and whispered, "I previously reported this to the Jade Emperor, but he turned a deaf ear to it."

"What? There is such a thing? Could it be that the Jade Emperor is also involved in this?" Nezha seemed to have eaten a big piece of melon, and tried hard to suppress the excitement in his voice.

Sun Wukong also lowered his voice and let out a big melon: "Hey, I heard that the Queen Mother is also in critical condition because of this incident!"

Now Nezha was completely confused.

Not only Nezha, but Yang Jian was also surprised by this.

"Didn't they say that the Queen Mother went into seclusion? Why is she involved here?" Yang Jian murmured.

"To be honest, brothers, I asked you out today just for this matter." Seeing that the timing was right, Sun Wukong confessed to Yang Jian and Nezha.

Upon hearing that it was the Queen Mother of the West who received the Queen Mother's call for help, Nezha and Yang Jian looked at each other in surprise.

Nezha was puzzled: "But what does this have to do with the Jade Emperor and Li Jing's sudden surge in cultivation?"

"Stupid! I, Old Sun, ask you, besides the treasures of heaven and earth, is there any other way to quickly cultivate great supernatural powers, regardless of talent and aptitude?"

When Nezha and Yang Jian heard what Sun Wukong said, the same answer involuntarily emerged in their minds.

But they still found it somewhat unbelievable.

"You mean, Li Jing..." Nezha looked around and made sure there was no one else around before lowering his voice and asking Sun Wukong, "Li Jing is possessed by a demon?"

Yang Jian raised his doubts, "But, I didn't notice anything wrong when I was chatting with the Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King Li before, and his demeanor didn't seem to be as crazy as if he were possessed by a demon."

Hearing this, Sun Wukong smiled mysteriously, beckoned Nezha and Yang Jian to come closer, and then gently grabbed a trace of demonic energy from the foreheads of Nezha and Yang Jian respectively.

"this?!"

Nezha looked at the black and red evil spirit that was caught by Sun Wukong, and immediately jumped aside as if it was stained with dirt.

Yang Jian's heart was pounding, and he also didn't understand why such a dangerous thing was on him.

Sun Wukong gently squeezed his hands and dispersed the two strands of evil spirit. He said, "It is this thing that has confused you, causing you to subconsciously ignore the abnormalities you have encountered recently."

The expressions on Nezha and Yang Jian's faces could no longer be described as simply ugly. Their expressions were like overturned color palettes.

"In that case, may I ask if my sister and the other brothers in my mansion also have such dangerous things?"

Yang Jian stood up and bowed respectfully to Sun Wukong. Since this matter concerned his family and friends, he really couldn't be careless.

Sun Wukong was not polite either. He took out a petal of the Pure White Lotus from behind him and handed it to Yang Jian:

"If they haven't been to Heaven recently, they shouldn't have been exposed to this stuff. But just in case, put this in the well and let them each drink a bowl of well water."

Yang Jian carefully put away the petals of the Pure World White Lotus. He was extremely grateful to Sun Wukong and said, "Thank you very much. If you can ever help me, brother, just let me know."

Sun Wukong waved his hand and said, "You're welcome. We're all family. This is nothing."

Nezha was in a brainstorming session. Did the Jade Emperor know about this matter? When did the abnormality in Li Jing appear?

After thinking for a long time, Nezha sighed, "Li Jing is not the source of this evil energy, right?"

After all, Li Jing is not the first immortal whose cultivation has greatly increased. At least before Li Jing's incident, Nezha had heard that many immortal servants had greatly increased their cultivation.

Sun Wukong gave his own guess: "If nothing unexpected happens, our high and mighty Jade Emperor might know all this."
