Chapter 186: You like to bully others by taking advantage of your power, right?

Niangniang Shiji struggled in the Nine Dragons Divine Fire Cover, her clothes turned to ashes in the blazing Samadhi True Fire, her body was twisted and deformed in the purgatory of the Samadhi True Fire, her skin was charred, and she was in extreme pain.

Her voice was already hoarse, but she was still begging: "Daoyou Taiyi, Immortal Taiyi... I was wrong, please let me go!

I don't dare anymore! "

Nezha stood aside, looking at the miserable appearance of this once powerful female demon, and a trace of pity welled up in his heart.

He turned around and looked at Taiyi Zhenren, and whispered, "Master, Shiji has realized her mistake, so let's let her go.

She has already received the punishment she deserves. If she continues like this, she will die."

Upon hearing this, Taiyi Zhenren looked at Nezha with a sharp gaze, but his expression did not waver at all. He shook his head, and said in a serious and firm tone: "Nezha, you are kind-hearted, which is a good thing. But you must also understand that being soft-hearted to the enemy will often leave a root of trouble.

Those who practice cultivation must act decisively, cut the grass at its roots and prevent future troubles.

Lady Shiji is ruthless and cruel. If we let her go, she will surely cause trouble again. By then, it will not only be us who will suffer, but also many more lives."

After hearing what his master said, Nezha was hesitant.

His eyes wandered between Taiyi Zhenren and Shiji Niangniang. He knew that what his master said made sense, but looking at the painful appearance of Shiji Niangniang in the flames, his heart still softened involuntarily.

Niangniang Shiji was inside the Nine Dragons Divine Fire Cover, surrounded by merciless flames. Her voice was hoarse, but she was still begging for mercy.

Her body had been burned by the Samadhi True Fire to the point where it was almost unrecognizable, but her eyes still revealed a desire to survive.

Nezha bit his lower lip tightly, feeling somewhat reluctant.

Seeing this, Taiyi Zhenren said calmly: "Nezha, you must remember one thing...If you have mercy on your enemies, you will be cruel to yourself.

If this Shiji doesn't die today, he will definitely harm you when he has the chance. Then you will regret your temporary kindness today..."

Before Taiyi Zhenren finished speaking, a auspicious cloud suddenly appeared in the sky, floating in the air, and there seemed to be a human figure on it.

Auspicious clouds slowly descended, and Yang Ling's figure appeared before the master and his disciple.

"It's you!"

Nezha exclaimed, as if he was a little surprised, staring at Yang Ling and questioning: "What are you doing here? I don't need your help!"

Yang Ling ignored him and looked directly at Taiyi Zhenren and said, "Taiyi, you are a Golden Immortal of the Chan Sect, but you are selfish and kill innocent people. You keep saying that you are doing this for Nezha's good, but in fact, you are just trying to survive your own killing calamity!"

Upon hearing this, Taiyi Zhenren's expression suddenly turned ugly.

A cold light flashed in his eyes, and he stared at Yang Ling with a sharp gaze, questioning: "Who are you? How dare you be so presumptuous here!"

Yang Ling remained calm and responded openly, "I am Yang Ling, a disciple of the Human Sect. I passed by here today and couldn't bear to see Daoist Shiji die innocently, and I couldn't bear to see Nezha being led astray by you!"

Taiyi Zhenren narrowed his eyes, as if examining Yang Ling's true identity. He asked in a cold voice: "So you are that Yang Ling... Humph, when will it be your turn to teach our disciples how to do things in the Chan Sect?"

Yang Ling replied calmly: "Red flowers, green leaves, and white lotus roots, the three religions are actually one family... You, me, and fellow Taoist Shiji are all disciples of Xuanmen, so I can't just sit back and watch you slaughter your fellow disciples!

Besides, Nezha is kind-hearted by nature and should learn to be compassionate instead of being led down a path of killing by you."

Niangniang Shiji was tortured in the Nine Dragons Divine Fire Cover, her body was burned to charcoal, and only her soul was still struggling. When she saw Yang Ling coming, a glimmer of hope suddenly flashed in her eyes.

“Fellow Daoist Yang Ling, save me… I know I was wrong, I really know I was wrong! I shouldn’t have stirred up trouble, I shouldn’t have ignored advice… Please, save me!”

Her words were full of regret, and her desperate pleading made everyone present feel the fear deep in her heart.

The former strength and arrogance have now vanished in the face of life and death.

Yang Ling nodded slightly, turned to Taiyi Zhenren, and said in a deep voice: "This matter was Nezha who shot and killed Taoist Shiji's boy first. Taoist Shiji just wanted an explanation, but you took such a heavy hand and wanted to refine him to death!
Are you trying to protect Nezha, or are you using this incident as an excuse to satisfy your own desire for killing?
Now I advise you one last time, let Daoist Fellow Shiji live immediately. If you insist on not letting him go, then I will have to do it myself.”

Upon hearing this, Master Taiyi raised a cold smile and a cold light flashed in his eyes: "Yang Ling, who do you think you are? What right do you have to come here to make decisions? Let me tell you, it's impossible! Lady Shiji has a cruel heart. If we let her go now, she will definitely make the same mistake again in the future. How can I change my mind just because of a few words from you?"

At this time, Nezha suddenly stepped forward and interrupted, "Master, what Yang Ling said is not without reason. Although Shiji made a mistake, she has been punished now. How about you spare her life?"

Taiyi Zhenren glanced at Nezha, frowning, obviously dissatisfied with what Nezha said. He knew that Nezha was soft-hearted, but he didn't expect that Nezha would start to waver at this time.

"Nezha, you don't understand." Taiyi Zhenren said in a deep voice, "Letting her go is like letting a tiger go back to the mountain. It will become a big trouble in the future. You and I are both cultivators. How can we ignore the greater good because of temporary sympathy?"

Hearing this, Nezha's heart was full of contradictions. He didn't know whether to listen to his master's words or to the voice of his heart. He knew that his master's position was firm, but he couldn't bear to see Shiji Niangniang being refined in the flames.

His eyes wavered between Taiyi Zhenren and Yang Ling, not knowing what to do.

Yang Ling's expression remained unchanged. He knew that if he did not take action today, Niangniang Shiji would surely die.

Taiyi Zhenren sneered, his eyes moving between Yang Ling and Shiji Niangniang, as if he was enjoying a drama.

He had absolute confidence in his Nine Dragons Divine Fire Cover and did not think that Yang Ling had the ability to break the fire barrier formed by the nine divine dragons.

He looked at Yang Ling and sneered, "You want to save her, right? Then go into the Nine Dragons Divine Fire Cover and save her yourself... As long as you can save her, I will spare her life."

Yang Ling smiled slightly, and suddenly there appeared an ancient copper coin in his hand. There were strange runes engraved around the coin, which emitted a faint golden light and flew straight towards the Nine Dragon Divine Fire Cover.

The falling treasure money was spinning in the air, making bursts of crisp clanging sounds, and instantly turned into a golden light, covering the Nine Dragon Divine Fire Cover.

The flames in the Nine Dragon Divine Fire Cover dimmed instantly, and the nine circling fire dragons seemed to be suppressed by an invisible force and gradually dissipated.

Then, the Nine Dragons Divine Fire Cover actually shrank and deformed, and in a flash it turned back into its original shape of an inverted copper bowl, and slowly fell into Yang Ling's hands.

When Taiyi Zhenren saw this, he was immediately shocked. He never thought that Yang Ling actually had the ability to remove his Nine Dragon Divine Fire Cover.

His face turned pale instantly, and an unprecedented panic surged in his heart.

He suddenly remembered what his two senior brothers Wenshu and Yuding had mentioned, that Yang Ling had a rare treasure in his hand, which was extremely powerful and could take away people's treasures.

At this moment, Taiyi Zhenren regretted it so much. If he had known this would happen, he would never have taken out the Nine Dragon Divine Fire Cover so easily.

"Yang Ling, you...what do you mean?" Taiyi Zhenren's voice was trembling. He tried hard to stay calm, but the panic in his eyes could no longer be concealed.

"Yang Ling, give me back my treasure!" Taiyi Zhenren's voice was trembling, and his eyes were full of anxiety and fear. He knew that once he lost the Nine Dragon Divine Fire Cover, he would encounter endless difficulties in his future cultivation.

Yang Ling was unmoved. He looked at Taiyi Zhenren coldly and said, "I will keep your Nine Dragons Divine Fire Cover for you temporarily and give it to Nezha later.

As for Fellow Daoist Shiji..."

Yang Ling turned and looked at Shi Ji, only to see that her charred body was gradually healing. Rebuilding her body was not a difficult task for a Taiyi Jinxian like her.

However, after being tempered by the Nine Dragons Divine Fire Hood, her spirit was extremely weak, and it was certain that her vitality was severely damaged. She would at least lose thousands or tens of thousands of years of magic power.

"Fellow Daoist Shiji, please leave on your own... I will give you an explanation about Nezha shooting your boy in the future. As for the grudge between you and Taiyi, that is your business. Don't involve others.

Do you understand?"

Yang Ling said calmly, with a warning in his words.

Niangniang Shiji stood up from the ground with difficulty, trembling. She glanced at Yang Ling, her eyes full of gratitude, but also mixed with deep fear.

She knew that she was able to survive today thanks to Yang Ling's kindness. She did not dare to overstep the mark and quickly turned into a black gas and soared into the sky.

"Go away!"

Taiyi Zhenren's voice exploded in the air like thunder, and a powerful force surged out from the whisk in his hand, trying to stop Niangniang Shiji from leaving.

However, just when that force was about to touch Niangniang Shiji, Yang Ling waved his hand lightly, and the force was like being blocked by an invisible wall and dispersed.

Taiyi Zhenren's expression instantly turned extremely ugly. He did not expect that Yang Ling could easily resolve his attack.

A trace of fear flashed in his eyes, and he dared not act rashly again.

Yang Ling looked at Master Taiyi coldly, with an unquestionable majesty in his eyes, "Taiyi, if you don't stop, don't blame me for being rude."

"you!"

Although Taiyi Zhenren was angry, he also knew that he was no match for Yang Ling, so he could only shout coldly: "Don't go too far!"

"You are going too far?" Yang Ling stared at Master Taiyi with a bad look in his eyes, "Isn't that how you bullied Taoist Shiji just now?
Oh, no, you want to refine her to death... Tsk tsk tsk, who is bullying others by taking advantage of their power?"
