Myths and Dharma, starting from Erlang Shen

"Anyone who has anything to do with water must obey my orders. Anyone who disobeys me will be punished!"

Ji Ren appeared in the void riding on Taxue. Taxue stepped down with all four hooves, creating ripples in the void. Zhao Gongming's Shangqing divine light turned into a long rainbow and pressed towards Chentang Pass. Taxue then stepped on Zhao Gongming's Shangqing divine light and walked towards them step by step.

They were clearly stepping on the void, so there should have been no sound. However, as the horses' hooves landed, it seemed as if thunder rang in everyone's ears, and their hearts felt as if a mountain was pressing down on them, making it difficult to even breathe.

Just one man and one horse, but they made the dragons of the four seas tremble with fear instinctively.

Zhao Gongming narrowed his eyes. This kid had only been in the Daluo realm for a hundred years or so, how could he be so strong?

Tianting Ziwei and Gou Chen have practiced for hundreds of millions of years but have not reached this level.

Even if this guy eats Nine Revolutions Golden Pill every day, he shouldn't be able to reach such a speed.

He was shocked, but now the flooding of Chentang Pass by the sea was inevitable. An invisible aura surged around Zhao Gongming. In the void, an illusory image of a god condensed. The power of Daluo permeated the sky. The whole Chentang Pass was shaking. Even though there was a formation set up by Taiyi Zhenren himself on Chentang Pass, it was still unable to block this aura in the slightest.

Ji Ren felt the increasingly heavy pressure from Zhao Gongming. The third eye on his forehead suddenly opened. Purple divine light surged, purple thunder raged, and another illusory image of a god condensed, carrying the power of heaven and earth, and engaged in a fierce confrontation.

At Chentang Pass, the world was in turmoil, and the East China Sea was in turmoil.

The dragon tribes of the four seas could not bear this pressure and retreated one after another. When they looked at Ji Ren again, there was even more fear in their eyes. How could Ji Ren actually resist Zhao Gongming, a veteran Daluo who had been famous for many years?

How far has his cultivation reached?

Ji Ren also stopped his movements and looked at Zhao Gongming and said word by word: "Uncle Zhao, are you going to interfere in the internal affairs of the Four Seas?"

"It is you who are unfair and have caused the lack of order in the four seas. And I, the Jiejiao, am in charge of the destruction of heaven and earth. Since the order is lacking and corrupt, we must tear it down and rebuild it! Now, the third prince of the East China Sea Dragon King has died in Chentang Pass. As the master of the water, you do not ask the truth or make decisions for the water god, but are biased and partial. How can you convince the four seas by doing this?" Zhao Gong said in a loud and clear voice, and every word he said was resounding and spread to all directions.

"Nonsense! It was obviously your dragon from the East China Sea who started the rebellion, so I killed him." Lu Shang said angrily

"But these are just customary practices that have existed since ancient times. Besides, even if he is wrong, it is not the turn of an outsider like Lu Shang to deal with it, but he should be punished according to the law. The crime of my prince is not a reason for Lu Shang to commit a crime." Another green dragon flew out from the East China Sea and said.

After hearing this, Lu Shang was immediately furious and was about to attack, but suddenly he heard Ji Ren say: "That's right, that's the truth!"

Hearing this, Lu Shang, who was originally furious, calmed down all of a sudden. He first showed an expression of disbelief, and couldn't believe that Ji Ren would say such a thing. Then a look of expectation appeared on his face. It was interesting. Although Ji Ren was very unreliable, he never cheated them in big things.

Including Zhao Gongming, everyone in the world was surprised when they heard Ji Ren's words. They never thought that Ji Ren would actually agree with them.

This is not what was expected.

However, this is not a bad thing.

Zhao Gongming immediately shouted in a cold voice: "In this case, quickly capture Lu Shang."

As soon as the words fell, everyone was ready to take action. However, before they could get close to Lu Shang, Taxue stomped his feet suddenly, and a powerful force immediately surged out, like a huge wave, attacking the group of real dragons.

A group of true dragon spirits were shaken, and they flew backwards with blood spurting out of their mouths.

Zhao Gongming sneered upon seeing this, acknowledging that Lu Shang was guilty. He died suddenly in public, so the position of Emperor Dongyin could really be moved.

The group of real dragons looked at Ji Ren in fear, never expecting that Ji Ren would actually take action. Without waiting for them to speak, Ji Ren's eyes were like lightning, and he shouted fiercely: "Assholes, who allowed you to act so wildly? Even if Lu Shang is guilty, he still needs to be punished according to the law and handed over to the authorities. What qualifications do you have to take action without authorization?"

"They are the families of the victims. It is only natural for them to take revenge." Zhao Gongming frowned. He felt that things were a little out of control.

"What a joke! What is right and natural? Since ancient times, there has been no order without rules. In the Three Realms, the immortals belong to the Emperor of Heaven, ghosts belong to Yama, and humans belong to the Emperor of Man. Lu Shang is my Xuanmen disciple and the deputy general of Chentang Pass in the Great Zhou. He is guilty now, so he should be handed over to the Great Zhou for trial and final punishment. When will it be your turn to take action? You have all lived for who knows how many years, don’t you even know this? The Dragon King only governs the water, and is Lu Shang an aquatic creature?" Ji Ren sneered.

Upon hearing this, the dragons looked at each other, not knowing how to refute.

Zhao Gongming was also a little confused. How did this work?

It's different from what was expected. According to the preset script, I want Lu Shang's life, and you have to protect Lu Shang. Everyone has their own opinions, and then we speak with strength.

The greatest truth in this world is the fist.

He who is stronger is right.

But Ji Ren first approved our procedure, and then followed the normal procedure...

Zhao Gongming is not very good at it.

"The Emperor is the chief of the Chan Sect for three generations. I thought he was a resourceful person, but I never thought he would say such childish words. It's hilarious."

Just when Zhao Gongming was in trouble, a burst of hearty laughter was heard.

Then, Taoist Duobao appeared in the sky, striding towards them.

But before it fell, the purple light flashed in Ji Ren's forehead, and a domineering purple divine thunder shot out, tearing the void. Duobao Taoist's face changed, he never expected that Ji Ren would start a move as soon as he said so. He hurriedly waved his hands and circulated the aura. Although he defeated Ji Ren's purple divine thunder, half of his sleeve was still destroyed by Ji Ren.

"If you want to laugh, get out of here. This matter is between the Dragon Clan and Lu Shang. What does it have to do with you? You came here uninvited and spoke without any shame. You are so shameless and you are talking nonsense." Ji Ren said contemptuously without hesitation.

"Boy, how outrageous!"

Taoist Duobao, who was caught off guard by Ji Ren's Purple Sky Divine Thunder, immediately showed anger on his face and shouted, "Lü Shang is guilty, and the dragon clan is harmed. It is natural to avenge your relatives. According to your meaning, do you want the Dragon King to find King Wu of the Great Zhou?"

"What qualifications does he have to look for King Wu of Zhou?" Ji Ren asked in return, looking at Taoist Duobao, "You are a great disciple of Jiejiao, handling government affairs on behalf of Grand Master Uncle. I thought you knew the situation, but I never thought you were so confused. King Wu of Zhou is the chosen one by heaven, and will be the emperor of mankind in the future. His status is higher than the Four Imperial Lords. Even if he has not returned to the throne yet, his status is the same as mine. What qualifications does the Dragon King have to look for King Wu of Zhou directly?"

"This is a dispute between two countries, and when it involves two countries, the status must be equal. If the Dragon King of the East China Sea wants to avenge the blood debt of the human race, he will naturally ask me first, and then I will go to King Wu of the Great Zhou to negotiate. How can I break the rules?"

"Master Zhao Gongming said it well just now. The guilt of others is not a reason for you to commit a crime. So even if Lü Shang is guilty, he should be convicted in a reasonable and legal way, and not abused for private punishment. Otherwise, how is he any different from him?"

"To be precise, Lu Shang is innocent now because he has not been convicted, just like his killing of the Prince of Donghai was reckless because the Prince of Donghai has not been convicted!"

"This is what Master Zhao Gongming said. Does Master Duobao think that Master Zhao Gongming is wrong? Then why don't you two Masters decide the winner first and then tell me. Otherwise, I really don't know what to do about this matter."

Taoist Duobao was speechless for a moment as he listened to Ji Ren's endless words. He turned to look at Zhao Gongming and signaled with his eyes, "Did you say that?"

Zhao Gongming glanced back, "You're not talking nonsense, of course I said it! Didn't we write this together? I said it just as you taught me, what should I do now?"

Taoist Duobao: ...

I didn't expect that Ji Ren would play by his own rules. Given the personalities of people like Taiyi Zhenren, they would just start fighting.
