Huang Ling'er bows and salutes the Kind-hearted Master, expressing her heartfelt gratitude, "Thank you so much, thank you very much." If it wasn't for you coming in a timely manner, what would have happened to me and my husband? It's really hard to say. I'm truly grateful to you, but I can't seem to understand how the dragon could come all the way here. Is there something wrong? If the dragon were to run amok in this realm without fear, wouldn't chaos ensue? Don't they know about it up there? Are they not going to manage it? If we don't get it back, this realm is really going to be in disarray!
Kind-hearted Master chuckles, "Little girl, what brings me here? Is it by chance that I came? Because I already knew that the dragon had come down to cause chaos, so I came over to bring it back. If I didn't come over to bring it back, what kind of consequences would you and your husband face? Do you know what they would be? Think about it, and you'll realize. Don't worry yourself with unnecessary worries anymore!"
Upon hearing the Kind-hearted Master's words, the dragon laughs heartily, "I say, Kind-hearted Master, aren't you too full of yourself? Do you really think you can subdue me? Ah well, what brings you here? You're not scared of you at all. Why don't we have a big battle of three hundred rounds? Let's see who's more powerful?"
The Kind-hearted Master laughed loudly, "Evil creature, do not dare to be arrogant! I will take you down!" After saying this, he took out his magic tool, the Three Treasure Cluster-Orb. "Can you recognize this thing, evil creature?"
When the dragon saw the Kind-hearted Master produce the Three Treasure Cluster-Orb, it felt a bit uneasy. The power of this artifact was too great for it to withstand. After all, it was just a dragon, even though it was Yang Jian's guardian. It wasn't truly a deity with boundless magical powers that could fear nothing. It couldn't actually do that. Its resistance paled in comparison to magic. If there were to be a real battle, it might stand a chance against some great deities. However, if they were to compete in magic, it would be curtains for it. These deities could handle it like a piece of cake. So when the dragon saw the Kind-hearted Master produce the Three Treasure Cluster-Orb, it cried out loudly: "Kind-hearted Master, you're not playing by martial ethics! Let's have an honest fight and see who's afraid of whom! Using your artifact against me is unsportsmanlike! If you're capable, let's have a three-hundred-round battle! If I lose to you and submit willingly, I will have no complaints or regrets. But if you use your artifact against me like this... that's also unsportsmanlike! I won't play this game with you anymore!" With that, the dragon took off into the sky and began to flee!
Seeing the dragon take to the air and attempt to flee, the Kind-hearted Master also rose into the sky and stood in the clouds. "Evil creature, do not dare to escape!" he bellowed. Without further ado, he threw out the Three Treasure Cluster-Orb. This was a treasure from the Primordial Supreme Deity, an ornate jade ruyi with powerful striking capabilities that targeted its victim's dantian, thus rendering them powerless. The Primordial Supreme Deity had once dispatched White Crane Boy to use this ruyi to slay Qiong Xiao. Additionally, he had wielded this very artifact during his confrontation with Tong Tianzhi within the Punishment Realm array.
Thus, the reason the dragon panicked and tried to flee at the sight of the Three Treasure Cluster-Orb was that it should have been afraid of it. Not to mention that no one, not even those more powerful than itself, could withstand it. Therefore, when it saw the Kind-hearted Master produce the Three Treasure Cluster-Orb, it knew its day was over. It had to flee immediately or risk losing its life! The ideal was grandiose, but reality was stark. The dragon wanted to escape, but it never expected that the Primordial Supreme Deity's Three Treasure Cluster-Orb had boundless power. It wasn't something anyone could just escape from. When the Kind-hearted Master threw out the Three Treasure Cluster-Orb, it was already destined that this dragon would be captured and restored. No matter how hard it tried to run, there was no escaping. The dragon was struck by the Three Treasure Cluster-Orb and shrank into a ball. With a single finger gesture in mid-air by the Kind-hearted Master, "retrieve!" The Three Treasure Cluster-Orb returned to his hand, and with it, the dragon was also absorbed into his hands and sealed away in a glass jade vase!
Mo Wenjie felt uneasy in his heart as he watched the Kind-hearted Master subdue the dragon. He wondered, should you and your brethren pay for your mistakes? That beast threatened me in such a manner, nearly costing me my life here, yet you said not a word after subduing it and simply walked away? You allowed it to escape due to your own mistake, refusing to take responsibility or offer any compensation. I was frightened for nothing then? Isn't that utterly unreasonable? My wife and I were startled without explanation. You expect to leave without offering any answers or explanations? Isn't that too unreasonable? Even if you are gods, elevated above us, does that mean you can behave without reason? We may be mere minor immortals, but we are also part of the heavens. If you don't care about us these small immortals at the bottom, what kind of heaven will it become?
The Kind-hearted Master watched Mo Wen become so agitated and spoke so passionately, and he laughed heartily. "You young fellow, your ability to cause trouble is almost as good as Sun Wukong's! Listen to me, first of all, the dragon didn't do anything serious to you. Even if the dragon truly wanted to harm you, could it hurt you? Don't you have a sense of self-awareness? Are you unaware of your own situation? Why are you throwing a tantrum here? Do you really think we don't know anything? Are you addicted to playing the role of a scoundrel? I tell you not to play this game of deception. It won't end well for you, let alone for Sun Wukong; no good will come from it. Don't even think about trying to swindle me here; I have nothing to give you!"
Upon hearing this, Mo Wenjie understood that the Kind-hearted Master wouldn't back down. He smiled apologetically and said, "I won't say anything more, but my wife... she certainly can't be scared like that without a reason, can she? If we don't get compensation for her terror, it seems a bit unfair, doesn't it? Even though we are minor immortals, you guys can't just ignore us. Bigger deities definitely won't act without reason. They are the most reasonable ones. They need to maintain harmony in heaven and ensure peaceful coexistence. So, how could they possibly not be reasonable?" He didn't believe that big deities would ever act without reason and was quite confident that they would compensate his wife for her fright. "Bigger deities are always the most reasonable ones. I have no doubt about it; I am extremely convinced of this!"
Huang Ling'er was taken aback upon hearing Mo Wenjie's words. What was he implying? Was he suggesting that they should confront the Kind-hearted Master for compensation? That would be suicidal! If the Kind-hearted Master took offense, what would they do? They were no match for him! She hurriedly interjected, "My husband, let's not cause any trouble for the Kind-hearted Master. I did indeed suffer a shock from the incident, but it wasn't anyone's fault. Let's just accept our bad luck and move on. We encountered a dragon and had to deal with it. There's no use in complaining about anything now!"
The Kind-hearted Master, upon hearing Huang Ling'er's words, opened his mouth and said, "Wait a minute!"
