Top Grade Immortal Emperor in the Flower City

Guanyin Bodhisattva, even within the Immortal Realm, is a Buddhist Bodhisattva with an extensive network of relationships.

Most importantly, she possessed unparalleled strength. Merely a Sixth Tribulations Immortal Emperor in terms of cultivation, yet not even Immortal Emperors of the Eight Tribulations could trouble her. The only ones who could threaten her were the likes of the Nine Tribulation Immortal Emperor before his reincarnation.

"Alright, alright, if there's something to say, just say it. I refuse to believe that you had me called over here just to chat idly."

"Come on, out with it. Back in the Kunlun Mountains, those three old fellows from the Three Purities fooled me into making a trip to the Yin Realm. And you?"

Ye Ling quickly gestured with his hands, unwilling to beat around the bush, preferring to get straight to the point or not talk at all.

Seeing this, the Bodhisattva couldn't help but shake her head, "Emperor, you're still so impatient. This time I do indeed have a matter that needs your assistance—it's a personal favor."

Ye Ling and Xuan Nu nodded, their expressions turning slightly grim. Guanyin seeking their help meant the matter must be somewhat tricky.

Otherwise, even an incarnation of the Bodhisattva should possess a cultivation not lower than that of the Divine Infant Realm, and it would be unlikely for her to consult with Ye Ling and Xuan Nu.

Ye Ling signaled the Bodhisattva to continue. Nodding, Guanyin said, "Here's the thing, in my Southern Sea, I have suppressed a malicious dragon. This dragon was causing havoc in the Southern Sea a thousand years ago before I subdued it here."

"This dragon's cultivation is not poor; it's already nearing the status of Immortal and has reached the Divine Infant Late Stage of cultivation. It must hammer against the restrictions I've set down once every year, causing the surrounding seas to churn into a furious tempest."

"The people lament and utter cries of misery, but I'm unable to subdue it. I simply wish to ask you both for a favor, to help me eliminate this malicious dragon."

At these words, Ye Ling's eyes widened, and he pointed to his nose, saying, "Bodhisattva, are you joking with me? What is my current level of cultivation?"

"I'm only at the Tribulation Transcending stage, and you're asking me to fight a Divine Infant Late Stage malicious dragon? You're leading me to the grave! Pardon my bluntness, if I agreed to help you, by this time next year, the grass on my grave would be more than a meter high."

Ye Ling quickly waved his hands, emphatically declining. What a mess of a task this was—he couldn't help but feel frustrated. It seemed that every encounter with beings from the Immortal and Buddhist realms was bound to be ill-fated.

"Your Highness need not be so quick to refuse. In fact, I believe you are the only one who can accomplish this task," Guanyin urged.

"This malignant dragon is quite unusual. Were it an ordinary evil dragon, I would have already descended to the Lower Realm and permanently suppressed it here. But alas, this dragon is born with an anomaly, immune to Divine Skills."

"Immune to Divine Skills? Then even my incarnations are of no use, left with no alternative but to suppress it using formations. However, its physical body remains vigorous, and with the formation half-broken, I'm on the verge of failing to suppress it."

"Previously, I heard from Qing Emperor that you've also learned his Extinction Golden Body technique. With the power of Extinction Golden Body, subduing this malicious dragon would naturally be within your grasp."

The Bodhisattva quickly made a hand gesture and then continued earnestly, "Moreover, Your Highness, do you know what I used to deploy the formation that suppressed it?"

"How would I know how you suppressed it? You, Guanyin Bodhisattva, have countless techniques at your disposal, much more than I could hope to match. Why ask me?"

Ye Ling couldn't help but reply in a disgruntled voice, but Guanyin wasn't perturbed, instead smiling slightly, "Oh, Emperor, to suppress this dragon, I used a strand of Heavenly Dao's essence."

"If Your Highness is so reluctant, then let it be. I'll seek someone else's help, or perhaps I'll just continue to expend mana to keep it suppressed. We can't let it escape and wreak havoc, after all."

And when he heard this, Ye Ling's eyes nearly popped out: "What! Essence of Heavenly Dao!"

At this point, his heart was thumping wildly, his eyes bloodshot. The Essence of Heavenly Dao, that was the dragon vein of the Immortal Realm, an entity that condensed the essence of heaven and earth, exceedingly rare.

Of course, compared to the dragon veins on Earth, there were still plenty of them, considering how vast and boundless the Immortal Realm Territory was. Nevertheless, the value of a single stream of Essence of Heavenly Dao was enough to drive many Immortals below the level of Five Tribulations into a frenzied battle to the death.

Ye Ling had never imagined that Guanyin Bodhisattva would use the Essence of Heavenly Dao to suppress an evil dragon that hadn't even reached the Immortal Realm. It was such a waste.

It wasn't just a waste, it was like asking the richest person in the world to take all his wealth to bring down a company worth only a million. Do you think he would do it?

Only a fool would, no wait, even an idiot would know not to choose that, it's a complete waste.

But Guanyin Bodhisattva shook her head: "Yes, the Essence of Heavenly Dao. Honestly, it was the Essence of Heavenly Dao I carried with me when I first ascended.

"However, when I ascended, I left this stream of Essence of Heavenly Dao in Putuo Mountain, so I couldn't take it away. Coincidentally, this evil dragon appeared, so I suppressed it."

"If your Highness can help me thoroughly suppress it, then this Essence of Heavenly Dao is yours as a reward."

Looking at the smiling Bodhisattva, Ye Ling chuckled, "Tsk tsk, why do I find that you Buddhists turn out to be even more shameless than us when it comes to scheming?"

"Suppress? What suppression? In my opinion, you just want your power of faith, right? I'll suppress that evil dragon, and you'll then work some miracle, and in the end, aren't you the one who benefits?"

Guanyin's face reddened, about to speak, but Ye Ling, full of righteousness, stopped her.

"But rest assured, vanquishing evil and promoting good is what people like us should do. So, this matter is under my control; whether or not there is Essence of Heavenly Dao involved, if I see it, I won't just walk away."

"Don't worry, I'll send that evil dragon back to its mother's womb, haha, and by the way, I'll safeguard your Essence of Heavenly Dao for you."

"Of course, you must remember, the most important thing is the sense of justice in my heart. I can also eliminate harm for the people."

Ye Ling chuckled, but Xuan Nu beside him just facepalmed, tsk tsk, why is he even more shameless after reincarnation?

He's not embarrassed, and she felt embarrassed for him. If this gets out, how would she and her sisters ever get by in the Immortal Realm, and how would the Nine Tribulations Territory be viewed?

But Ye Ling didn't care, no matter what directions, north, south, east, and west, things only got serious when they were in his hands.

"Since that's the case, then thank you, Your Highness. That evil dragon is suppressed not far from here, under the sea. I think with your strength, it should be no problem," said the Bodhisattva.

Having finished speaking, Ye Ling laughed heartily: "Haha! You're really funny. The Dragon Emperor of the Immortal Realm trembles in the presence of your lordship, let alone a measly evil dragon."@@novelbin@@

"Just wait and see, I'll chop it up into nine pieces and then boil it for a feast. Hehe, dragon meat, it's been a long time since I last had some," Ye Ling chirped, clearly very pleased with himself.
