389 The River God of Wei River

“Eh? What trouble does fellow Daoist Wen Zhong have? Quickly tell me, fellow Daoist!”

Upon hearing that there was trouble, the Four Saints of Nine Dragons Island immediately became anxious.

Although most of the Jie Sect’s members were from different species and had evil behaviors, they still valued the relationship between fellow disciples.

Not to mention anything else, just the words “avenge my fellow Daoist” during The Investiture of Gods had pulled many of the Jie Sect’s disciples to the Great Shang camp.

Not to mention that Wen Zhong was very popular among the members of the Jie Sect.

Therefore, after knowing that Wen Zhong was in trouble, the Four Saints of Nine Dragons Island immediately became anxious and wanted to ask you about it.

Zhao Hao had only found out about the major events that had happened in the past few days after he had finished his seclusion and was preparing to leave.

Di Xin ordered Wen Zhong to capture those Mountain and River Gods who resisted the imperial decree.

At first, everything went very smoothly. Although the Mountain and River Gods were minor gods conferred by the Heavenly Court, they were basically just some mountain spirits who had obtained Dao cultivation.

With Wen Zhong’s status as a peak Earth Immortal, it was naturally easy to deal with him.

However, they were messengers of the Heavenly Court after all, and the Heavenly Court reacted quickly. The River God of Wei River personally came out and stopped Wen Zhong from killing the gods.

The River God of Wei River was a nine-headed flood dragon with the bloodline of the Dragon race. He was conferred the title of River God by the Jade Emperor and was in charge of the clouds and rain in Wei River.

He was very powerful, a mid-stage Heaven Immortal.

It could be said that if Wen Zhong was not the one who went, the others would have been eaten by the nine-headed flood dragon.

Wen Zhong was a peak-stage Earth Immortal, but his spells were all of the orthodox human path. The Dharmic treasures in his hands were also very impressive.

Even if he were to fight against an ordinary Heaven Immortal, he would not be at a disadvantage.

Wen Zhong and the nine-headed flood dragon fought a few rounds, but neither of them was able to defeat the other.

Zhao Hao had also heard about this matter, and he had wanted to see what Di Xin was up to after he had broken through. However, he had chosen to go against the Heavenly Court at this time.

The Four Saints of Nine Dragons Island furiously said, “Damn it! Does the Heavenly Court think that we, the Jie Sect, have no talents?”

“That’s right. Senior Brothers, I can’t stand it when a Heaven Immortal of the Dragon race bullies a third-generation disciple of the Jie Sect,” Li Xingba immediately said, then rode his beast and headed straight for Great Shang.

The other few people also rode their mounts and headed straight for Great Shang.

“Fellow Daoist, we’ll go and help Wen Zhong now.”

Zhao Hao said, “Let’s go together. This is a matter of Great Shang. Since you guys can help, I can’t slack off as a General.”

Zhao Hao’s words were very beautiful. Immediately, he and Wang Mo headed straight for Great Shang.

At the Wei River…

Grand Preceptor Wen was leading his troops to set up camp here.

Due to the appearance of the nine-headed flood dragon among the Mountain and River Gods, those who had low cultivation base and were afraid of being implicated came to the Wei River to strengthen the power of the nine-headed flood dragon.

Wen Zhong was also very distressed in the tent.

It wasn’t that he couldn’t take down the nine-headed flood dragon. With the Yin-Yang Whips given by Sect Leader Tongtian and the divine power of the Heavenly Eye, Wen Zhong could take it down even if the nine-headed flood dragon was a mid-stage Heaven Immortal.

The main point was that the nine-headed flood dragon was too cunning. He did not fight Wen Zhong head-on and only stopped Wen Zhong’s God-Slaying Steps.

This gave Wen Zhong a huge headache.

“Damn it, don’t tell me we need to ask the three religions to help us.”

Wen Zhong couldn’t help but secretly calculate.

He immediately gave up on the idea. Wen Zhong knew that the three religions had signed The Investiture of the Gods. Now, the disciples of the three religions were all in their cave abodes.

Unless he had no other choice, Wen Zhong didn’t want to implicate the other fellow Daoists.

Just as Wen Zhong was hesitating, the nine-headed flood dragon broke out of the water again and arrived in front of Wen Zhong’s Army.

The nine-headed flood dragon’s goal was not to defeat Wen Zhong, but to express the Heavenly Court’s attitude that the human race must rely on the gods in order to survive safely on this mainland.

“Wen Zhong, we gods are all appointed by the Jade Emperor. We have protected the human race for many years. Your emperor, a mere mortal, dares to talk about killing a god. He really doesn’t know what’s good for him. I advise you to leave quickly and tell your emperor to wait for the Jade Emperor’s judgment.”

The nine-headed flood dragon floated above the Wei River, and below it, there were thousands of water monsters.

Behind the nine-headed flood dragon, there were hundreds of Mountain and River Gods from all over the Shang dynasty. Such a force was not something that Wen Zhong could deal with easily.

The nine-headed flood dragon had been waiting for this moment. It could not defeat Wen Zhong in a one-on-one battle, but when the Mountain and River Gods gathered enough people, even Wen Zhong would have to avoid them.

Wen Zhong dismounted the black Qilin and flew directly into the air, speaking to the nine-headed flood dragon in an extremely cold manner.

“Ever since the Three Sovereigns ruled the world and the Five Emperors opened up new territories, the human race established a dynasty. For the past thousands of years, you gods have always regarded us as the aid of your cultivation. You can take whatever you want, eat whatever you want, kill whatever you want, and treat us like wild beasts. Even though you have been conferred as gods by the Heavenly Court, your nature of bringing chaos to the human race has never changed.

“Now that Great Shang is in times of peace, it’s time to tell you that the human race is the true master of this land. It’s fine if you are subservient to us, but if you dare to interfere in our affairs, I’ll kill you all.

“Today, I will kill you, the River God of Wei River. I will end all the gods in the world.”

Immediately, Wen Zhong flicked the golden whip in his hand, and his body directly soared into the sky, emitting rays of golden light that headed straight toward the nine-headed flood dragon.

The nine-headed flood dragon sneered and said in a deep voice, “Wen Zhong, I’m usually afraid of you. But today, on the Wei River, I have hundreds of gods behind me. How dare you fight with me? You’re really courting death!”

After saying that, the nine-headed flood dragon’s body glowed brightly. From the temple of Wei River not far away, the power of joss flames instantly flew into the nine-headed flood dragon’s body.

The nine-headed flood dragon’s figure also instantly transformed into a golden body that was several thousand feet tall.

A dragon claw stretched out and directly collided with Wen Zhong’s golden whip.

A deafening sound rang out, and the surrounding air instantly exploded, creating gusts of strong wind.

Wen Zhong and the nine-headed flood dragon were equally matched in this attack.

“Hmph! Wen Zhong, you can stop me, but I don’t know if your soldiers can stop my men.”

The nine-headed flood dragon sneered and said directly.

“I am the River God of Wei River, and I am in charge of all divine affairs in Great Shang under the order of the Jade Emperor. All registered gods, people of Wei River, kill all the humans on the shore.”

As soon as the nine-headed flood dragon finished speaking, the monsters in the river and Mao Shen, who was not far behind the nine-headed flood dragon, rushed excitedly toward the Shang soldiers on the shore.

“You dare!”
