Chapter 223 3 Heavenly Lord
Chapter 223 3 Heavenly Lord
Just as everyone was on the verge of conflict, Baili Pangpang suddenly chuckled.
"Gentlemen, don't misunderstand. I didn't say I didn't want to become a big shot. I was just thinking about whether I'm still myself. After becoming that high and mighty god, will I still be Baili Pangpang, who has lived for millions of years and has powerful cultivation, or will I become a powerful god? Baili Pangpang is nothing but a passing cloud."
Looking back now, it's all pretty good, no matter what. As a pampered young master, I had money and friends. As a deity, I also had friends and people who cared.
After Baili Pangpang finished speaking, he took two steps forward and reached out to touch the purple-robed Taoist's outstretched finger. As their fingers touched, Baili Pangpang's figure suddenly rose into the air. His eyes changed several times before finally settling into an expression devoid of joy or sorrow.
He slowly descended back to the ground, raising his eyes to look at Yuanshi Tianzun and Daode Tianzun.
"Amitabha Buddha, thank you both for your trouble."
"Why be so polite with us? While we want you to follow your heart, we also look forward to your early return."
"I'm afraid we can't go back. I don't know what your Heavenly Court is thinking. The current Human Command should be centered around our team. I wonder what our team of three's status is in the Heavenly Court now?"
Ling Yunxiao really enjoys causing trouble when others reunite. If it weren't for the fact that he was the one who resurrected them, his head would probably have been smashed several times over.
Lingbao Tianzun regained his memories and naturally stood beside Yuanshi Tianzun. The three of them turned around and looked at Ling Yunxiao at the same time.
"Young friend Ling, the Heavenly Court has already held a meeting to discuss your matter and the [Godslayer] team. The conclusion is almost the same as that of the Human Race Command. We also take you as the main focus and everything is based on your ultimate goal."
“If that’s what you say, then things will be much easier.”
Ling Yunxiao raised an eyebrow and smiled, then pointed at Lingbao Tianzun.
"I don't care whether he has erased or sealed away Baili Pangpang's memories. I hope he remains in the human world as an ordinary recruit, Baili Pangpang. As for the path ahead, whether he wants to walk with Lin Qiye or not is up to him."
However, I hope you can make it clear to him that the Heavenly Court no longer needs him.
"Yes, if the Heavenly Court needs to restore anything, or wants to do anything that requires the help of the Celestial Venerable Lingbao, the three of us can assist them."
After Ling Yunxiao finished speaking, he pointed to Wang Mian and Wang Ye behind him.
Wang Ye grinned and shook his head, speaking directly:
"No, when you calculate it this way, we're actually at a disadvantage!"
"Well, then I'll trouble you, Great Celestial Venerable, to send Nezha over after you return to Heaven. It's not very convenient for our team to go out with only three people. Besides, Nezha's strength is quite considerable."
"..."
When did Nezha become just "okay"?
Faced with Ling Yunxiao's unreasonable request, Yuanshi Tianzun remained silent for a moment before nodding in agreement.
When Wang Ye thought of the two golden phoenixes and Nezha's three heads and six arms, his eyes immediately curved into a smile, and he was no longer as stubborn as before.
"Hehe... I'll head back to my dorm first. With the power of a big shot, I can still retain my memories and identity. Brother Ling, from now on you're my big brother."
Lingbao Tianzun touched his face, a simple and honest smile appearing on his face. He turned around cheerfully and left without a care in the world.
Ling Yunxiao stared at his retreating figure, puzzled. If all his efforts had only managed to wake up an actor, then it would be utterly pointless.
"Don't worry, he's not pretending. He's genuinely opening his mind and using Baili Pangpang's soul as his main focus."
Perhaps sensing Ling Yunxiao's concerns, the Celestial Venerable of Morality explained softly.
Just then, as Ling Yunxiao was about to say goodbye to the two, the Moral Celestial Venerable took out another magic gourd.
"There are six pills here that can improve your cultivation level. They may not be of much help to you, but you should have someone you care about. So, two pills for each of you, just like the pills from last time."
The Celestial Venerable of Morality opened the gourd, poured out six pills, and handed them to Ling Yunxiao. Then, he left with the Celestial Venerable of Primordial Beginning.
Wang Ye walked up to Ling Yunxiao with a cold smile, and before Ling Yunxiao could speak, he sat down on the table in front of him with an air of superiority.
"Same as last time? In other words, you asked the Heavenly Court for benefits in our team's name before, and you didn't mention it to me at all! What, are you planning to give me a few this time?"
Faced with Wang Ye's questioning, Ling Yunxiao turned around and gave all six pills to Wang Ye without caring.
"Captain, take this to [Masked] now. We'll wait for Nezha here. By the time you come back, Nezha will have almost recovered."
Wang Mian glanced at Wang Ye, who looked fierce but did not stop him from leaving, took the six pills, and then turned into a stream of light and disappeared from the spot.
"What, you didn't think of leaving one for Zhang Ziliang?"
"Tch... I'm the kind of guy who plundered the Heavenly Court's treasury in our world. Do you think I'd care about these pittances? I'm asking you a question! Explain yourself, why won't you give me a share?"
Wang Ye glanced at Ling Yunxiao and could tell that he just seemed to want an attitude.
"Consider it a debt I owe you! The things in this world may not be of much value to you, but what about the Primordial World? The captain will most likely go back to the Primordial World in the future, and since I am the one in charge of the Book of Man, I will probably go there as well."
"But if you want to go, I'll take you there. If there's anything you like over there, we'll go and snatch it together."
"Do you think it's possible that there are still books to read in my world?"
So what the hell are you trying to convince me with these empty promises? Go rob someone? With our skinny arms and legs, we'd be lucky to survive in the prehistoric world, let alone rob someone? You really dare to say that!
"Fine, I see now. You're just as poor as those two old men who left earlier, maybe even stingier."
After Wang Ye finished speaking, he lowered his eyes and ignored Ling Yunxiao. If these two weren't his close friends, he would have drawn his sword no matter what.
Seeing that Wang Ye had finally calmed down, Ling Yunxiao took out the Book of Life and Death while waiting for Nezha to arrive, still wanting to know how much of his life was left.
"Gained 390 million points of Reincarnation Power by eradicating the Ancient God Cult."
Using the Reincarnation of Longing for Home twice consumes 420 million points of Reincarnation Power.
Battle costs 10 points. Lifespan bonus costs 200 points.
Remaining: 161 million points of Reincarnation Power
After seeing the final balance, Ling Yunxiao couldn't help but sigh with regret.
"Damn! We killed him too early! Who would have thought the Church of the Ancient Gods would be worthless now? I should have left the 'Dreaming' behind."
