Chapter 115 The Whereabouts of the Gods of Great Xia

Ye Fan sighed: "If our Great Xia truly has gods, how could these external gods be allowed to act so presumptuously!"

Lu Wuwei also sighed: "The Great Xia Dynasty has no gods!"

The Master stepped down from the carriage: "So what? As long as we are here, this is 'the land of Great Xia, forbidden to even the gods!'"

Zhou Ping probably wanted to say something too, but he was a bit socially awkward, so he nodded and then kept quiet.

Looking at the four excited people, Wang Teng tentatively said, "Um... is it possible that the Great Xia deity has always existed, but is simply unable to appear for the time being?"

"Um……"

The four people on the human ceiling all stared at Wang Teng, and Guan Zai's voice came from the void: "Great Xia has gods, why can't we see them?"

"Ahem, perhaps, maybe, possibly, they haven't recovered their strength yet?"

Ye Fan looked at Wang Teng with a serious expression: "Wang Teng, kid, do you know something? Tell me quickly, what exactly is going on with the Great Xia Gods?"

Wang Teng looked up at the sky and said hesitantly, "That's a very, very long story!"

"explain!!!"

"Gentlemen, do you still remember the mist surrounding the Great Xia Dynasty?"

"Remember, this mist is extremely eerie; if even a wisp of it seeps out, an ordinary person will die a violent death!"

Wang Teng nodded: "Yes, the mist is strange and powerful. Even if all the gods of the Great Xia joined forces to set up the Zhou Tian Xing Dou Grand Array of the Ancient Demon Court, they could only protect one-fifth of the Great Xia's homeland."

Ye Fan was somewhat puzzled: "Then how...?"

"Don't panic, listen to me. At this critical juncture, the Great Celestial Venerable has ordered that the Heavenly Court shatter its own essence and transform into the base of nine national guardian steles to guard the borders. All the gods of the Great Xia have sacrificed their own bodies and divine power to build the nine national guardian steles, constructing a great war to protect the nation for ten thousand years!"

Those who heard this were shocked and said in disbelief, "No, Wang Teng, you mean..."

Wang Teng didn't respond, but continued, "After the Celestial Venerable finished speaking, the gods were silent for a moment, then Jade Cauldron True Man said leisurely, 'The Great Xia can exist without its gods, but it cannot exist without its hundreds of millions of people!'"

Immediately afterwards, the Celestial Venerable personally shattered the Heavenly Court. The essence of the Heavenly Court then transformed into the bases of nine national-level divine steles. The Queen Mother, the Netherworld Emperor, Chi Jingzi, Huanglong, the Water Virtue Star Lord, Yu Ding, Yang Jian, and other gods of the Great Xia Dynasty shattered their divine bodies and powers, their souls re-entering the cycle of reincarnation to relive their tribulations. Therefore, although the gods of the Great Xia Dynasty are still present, they cannot help us for the time being.

"How do you know all this? Could you be one of the legendary gods of the Great Xia Dynasty?"

Wang Teng said with a dark face, "I didn't, I didn't do it, don't talk nonsense, I'm just an ordinary citizen."

"However... we have discovered the reincarnation of Erlang Shen Yang Jian!"

Upon hearing this, Lin Qi sighed softly, but didn't know what to say next.

Ye Fan and the other three—no, now all five of them—were staring intently at Wang Teng.

"That's wonderful! We've found the reincarnation of Erlang Shen Yang Jian, which will greatly improve the situation of our Great Xia!"

Looking at the somewhat pleased human ceiling figures, a strange smile appeared on Wang Teng's face.

"Don't get too excited yet. I have good news and bad news. Which do you want to hear first?"

Immediately afterward, before anyone could answer, Wang Teng continued, "The good news is that I've found the reincarnations of Yang Jian and Nezha. The bad news is that they're just ordinary middle school students right now, burying themselves in test papers every day."

Ye Fan: "..."

The scene fell silent for a moment, then Ye Fan smiled calmly: "I was just being stubborn. The gods of Great Xia have already helped us humans enough; we should learn to be content. Wang Teng, is there anything we can do to help the gods of Great Xia regain their strength?"

Wang Teng thought for a moment: "Well, I was originally planning to create a special team, and I've already found the list of members. Now it's perfect to add these two. So, Lao Fan, you write a letter of introduction, that's all... Oh, right, Master, come with us in a bit, we'll take you to see someone."

"A person? Who is it?"

"Who? Yang Jian's mother, Lin Qiye's aunt. Yang Jian is just a baby right now. If you want to coax her out, you have to talk to his guardian first! Go over there later, like this... Be careful, don't give yourself away!"

Just then, Wang Teng's eyes narrowed, and he smiled at the group, saying, "Gentlemen, you wait here for a bit, I'm going to the restroom!"

With that, Wang Teng flashed and transformed into a golden light, disappearing into the distance.

"Handsome guy, don't rush off! Oh, wait, this Taoist priest..."

Across from Wang Teng, a Taoist priest stood still, looking at Wang Teng with an uncertain expression.

"Fellow Daoist..."

The Taoist priest had his hair tied up with a long hairpin, his face was as bright as the moon, he held a whisk in his hand, and wore a pair of straw sandals.

"Let me guess who you are? Are you Taiqing? Yuqing? Or Shangqing!"

The Taoist priest performed a Taoist hand gesture and then said, "A name is just a label, it's not important! Fellow Taoist, the Great Xia Dynasty is blessed to have you!"

Seeing that the Taoist priest was unwilling to reveal his name, Wang Teng stopped talking and changed the subject: "Taoist priest, how about I discuss something with you? I'd like Yang Jian and Nezha to stay with me for a while so they can recover their strength. What do you think?"

As he spoke, Wang Teng reached out and shook the pottery jar up and down in his hand.

A hint of apprehension flashed across the Taoist's face. He said with a wry smile, "Fellow Daoist, I have no ill intentions towards you. You don't need to threaten me with this powerful weapon. If Yang Jian and Nezha are willing to join you, that's fine. If they're not willing, you can't force them!"

"Of course, Daoist Master, you are such a kind person!"

The Taoist bowed deeply and said, "Fellow Daoist, if Yang Jian and the other two recover their strength, could you please have them return? It's time for our Great Xia to rebuild the Heavenly Court. Now, the gods in the mist all possess their own divine kingdoms: Takamagahara in Japan, Asgard in Northern Europe, and Olympus in Greece... It's time for our Great Xia's Heavenly Court to shine again."

"Of course, of course. Don't worry, Daoist Master, once Yang Jian and Nezha have recovered their strength, I will definitely make sure they go back to work!"

"Then, fellow Daoist, I'll be taking my leave now!"

After saying that, the Taoist priest transformed into a gust of wind and flew away.

At that moment, Lu Wuwei rode up to Wang Teng on an electric scooter and asked, "Wang Teng, who was that guy just now?"

Looking at Lu Wuwei riding his electric bike, Wang Teng couldn't help but complain.
