Conferred God: Got cramped at the beginning

Chapter 729 Donghua and the Cowherd
"Here it comes again." When Taoist Donghua's sword light fell in the mountains and forests, the green ox that was chewing grass boredly in the valley seemed to have noticed something, moved its ears, and then sent down its aura to lock onto Donghua.

He has experienced this kind of thing many times.

And every time, as long as he released his Qi to let Donghua know that he had discovered him, Donghua would naturally turn around and leave.

However, this time, it was different.

His energy had already fallen on Donghua, locking him down, but Donghua didn't care at all and came towards the forest, towards himself.

Sensing the current changes, the old cow shook its head slightly, broke the rope, and then went to a lake in the mountains.

There is a small house by the lake - and in the house, there is the sound of a baby crying.

"Brother Niu, what's wrong?" Hearing the sound of Lao Niu coming back outside, a man with a somewhat evil look immediately came out of the house.

"Donghua is here." The green ox spoke.

"Before, Donghua left immediately after I noticed him."

"But now, Donghua knows that I have discovered him, but he still comes to me."

"It seems that he has made up his mind. You have to avoid him first."

"I'm afraid it can't be avoided!" As soon as the blue bull finished speaking, another voice sounded.

But Donghua had already caught up with him.

"You've committed a crime, you cowherd," Donghua said as he walked towards the hut.

"The Seventh Princess is here. Donghua has been ordered to rescue the Seventh Princess and bring her back to Yaochi."

Donghua had only taken two steps when the green bull's horn pushed him back.

"Fellow Daoist Donghua, the couple are in love with each other. Why do you, an outsider, have to keep pestering them?" Qingniu spoke.

"After thirty to fifty years, mortals will be nothing but dust. Immortals and gods will live forever, but can't they even wait for these thirty to fifty years?"

"Mutual affection?" Upon hearing this, Donghua sneered.

"I didn't know there was such a mutual affection."

"You old cow, do you really not know what's going on here?" Donghua said.

The cowherd also hurriedly interrupted Donghua.

"My Lord, my lady and I just met, and I was young and admired her, so I used some tricks - but over the years, my lady and I have been treating each other with respect, and we have long fallen in love."

"I hope the Immortal will give me your wisdom."

"You are young and admire Ai, so you used some tricks. It's so easy to say." Donghua sneered, "Old Cow, I won't waste my words with you."

"Today, I must bring the Seventh Princess back."

"My Lord, my child is only two years old. If my wife leaves, the child will be left without a father or a mother. Wouldn't he be bullied?"

"How many Erlang Zhenjun are there in the world?"

"I hope the Immortal will give my husband and I some time, considering the nature of mother and son and the affection between human beings." The cowherd had a bitter face and looked extremely sad.

Hearing the natural instincts of mother and son and the human affection, the people in the room seemed to be moved. They opened the window, bowed to Donghua, and then echoed the words of the cowherd.

"I still ask for mercy from the Immortal."

“Shut up!” Seeing that the cowherd was deliberately changing the subject, Donghua immediately made a spell and drew his magic power, then slapped the cowherd in the face with his sword sheath, making his face swollen and unable to speak anymore.

Then, he looked at the green bull standing in front of him.

"Old Bull, I don't know what your plan is with this mortal to force the Seventh Princess to commit herself to this, but I am here today because the Lord of Punishment knows about this matter and has issued a decree, ordering me to rescue the Seventh Princess and bring her back to heaven."

"If I, Donghua, am incompetent and cannot save the Seventh Princess, there is the North Pole Exorcism Institute that will take action upon hearing the news."

"You are certainly very powerful and can stop me, but can you stop the Arctic Exorcism Institute?"

"Donghua, what you said is nothing more than an immortal yearning for the mortal world and the old story of Yao Ji. How can it be considered forced? How can it be to the extent that the North Pole Exorcism Institute will be destroyed?"

Hearing Donghua's words, the old cow was also shocked. He originally wanted to scold Donghua for attacking a mortal, but he swallowed back the words.

"It's just a trivial matter of an immortal yearning for the mortal world?" Donghua seemed to have noticed something and cast a spell again to restrain the cowherd - but the strange thing was that there was something similar to the aura of humanity flowing through the cowherd, and Donghua's magic power could not fall on him at all. "Do you know that for this matter, Qinglong Tianzun went to find the Bull Demon King himself."

Therefore, Donghua had no choice but to use the scabbard to hit him on the other side of the face again, rendering him completely speechless.

Then, taking advantage of the old cow's hesitation, he threw the sword in his hand, and the long sword was immediately placed across the hut to protect the house.

The Bull Demon wanted to take action upon seeing this, but when he saw that Donghua was only protecting the house and did not force anyone to take him with him, he just sat there and watched. After Donghua threw down his sword, the Bull Demon put up another layer of blockade outside of Donghua's sword.

At this time, Donghua's gaze fell on the old cow who seemed to be ignorant of what had happened before.

"Old Cow, what is your relationship with this cowherd?"

"I owe him a favor, so I will protect him for sixty years."

"Why, is there any hidden secret in this?"

I don’t know if it was because the Bull Demon King was mentioned, or because there was no trouble from the cowherd, but at this time, Donghua’s communication with the bull demon became much smoother.

However, many years ago, the ancestor of this cowherd family saved the life of this old cow. Then the old cow left a token and promised that if his descendants activated the token, he would come to help no matter what happened.

Two years ago, when the Seventh Young Master gave birth to a son, the cowherd lit a token and invited the old cow over. He told the cow that he and the fairy in the sky were in love with each other and had children. However, he was worried that the Heavenly Court would find out and capture the fairy and kill the two children. So he asked the old cow to help hide the children - after thirty or fifty years, when he turned into earth and the children grew up, the matter would be over.

In addition, after the old cow came, the cowherds would often show their fear of the Heavenly Court in front of him. They would often mention that Yao Ji's eldest son was beheaded and that Yang Jian and his sister had fled. Naturally, they were quite wary of the people coming from the Heavenly Court.

As a result, even the Seventh Princess became more and more distrustful of Heaven, and she dared not even think about returning to Heaven.

"What a scheming person." Donghua sneered as he listened to the words of the bull monster.

A mortal who could rely on his own one-sided words, his own mortal "weakness", exaggerate the shadow of heaven, and deceive a female fairy and a demon god - such a mortal, in any case, can be regarded as a hero. However, his talent was used in the wrong place.

"Old Cow, let me tell you, this mortal's so-called love is actually him taking advantage of the seven princesses' misfortune. He stole their fairy clothes while they were bathing and used the other six princesses as hostages, forcing the seven princesses to give themselves to him."

"what!"

"Donghua, are you serious?"

After listening to Donghua's words, the bull demon stood up, and the curved horns on its head stood up straight in shock.

The words Donghua heard were completely different from what the cowherd said to him.

"If that's the case, then how can the Seventh Princess ..."

"You, an old demon, have been fooled by this mortal, let alone the Seventh Princess?"

"After the Seventh Princess gave birth to the child, she became a mother. She was also frightened by the matter of the God of Justice, so she naturally lost her mind." Donghua said as he went to the cottage.

"Old Cow, I am going to take the Seventh Princess back to Heaven now, are you still going to stop me?"

"Old Bull, you'd better hope that you are really just deceived." Donghua said, and he took the seven princesses to the heaven. "As for the two children, I will entrust them to you first."

"And you have to keep an eye on the cowherd too. I will come back from heaven after I have settled the Seventh Princess down, and then I will take him away!"

The Seventh Princess wanted to say something, but Donghua remembered Ao Bing's order to "take the Seventh Princess back first", and without hesitation, he rolled up his sleeves, sealed the Seventh Princess up, and went straight to the Heavenly Palace.

“It’s over, it’s over!
"I can't survive!"

At this time, the Bull Demon no longer cared about Donghua and was just turning around in circles in a panic.

He stamped his feet, listened to the crying of the child and glared at the cowherd.

It goes without saying which one is more credible, the cowherd's statement or the words spoken by Donghua - what's more, Donghua has the endorsement of Azure Dragon Heavenly Master.

So, the matter was really just as Donghua said, it was this cowherd who forcibly took away the Jade Emperor's seventh princess.

And the old cow was so foolish that he was deceived by the cowherd and hid from the Heavenly Palace with him.

He thought he was keeping his promise, but who knew what the other demon gods would say about him after this matter got out?

To say that this old man has no shame is an understatement.

Indeed, among the demon clan, no one cares about the yin and yang matters between men and women. Even Lao Niu himself, before he became enlightened, was abducted and tortured by a demon queen and taken back to be her son-in-law for more than two hundred years.

But at the same time, he also knew that the demon race and the human race were different.

The demons are vicious and evil, but the reputation of bullying the weak and taking advantage of others without admitting the blame is something the demons are unwilling to bear.

God have mercy on him, his reputation as an old cow has been ruined in an instant!

And there is the Bull Demon King - if the Bull Demon King knew about this from the Azure Dragon Heavenly Venerable and regarded him as the mastermind of this matter, it is possible that all his bezoar would be beaten out by the Bull Demon King.

"How could you do such a thing, kid?"

"If you just want to leave a legacy for your family, what beauty can I, Old Cow, not find for you?"

"Even if it's the foxes in the Forty-Nine Heavens, I can ask them to come to you."

"But why did you use such a disgusting method?"

"Now, what should I do?"

"If you don't know what to do, then don't do it!" The cowherd, whose face was just relieved by the old cow's magic power, suddenly showed an extremely gloomy face.

Then, a rope was suddenly put around the old cow.

"Brother Niu, you promised to protect my husband and me for fifty years and to ensure that our two children grow up safely."

"Now, it's you who broke the promise, so don't blame me for taking away your magic power!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a skinning knife appeared in the hand of the cowherd. He cut the bull demon's body and peeled off the old cow's hide. The old cow's magical power was also peeled off along with the hide.

If Donghua had arrived a step later and seen this scene, he would have recognized that this method of borrowing the skin to seize the magic was surprisingly similar to the method learned by the seven princesses, which was to place the magic power on the fairy clothes!
It turned out to be the seventh princess's fairy clothes. When it was taken away, the cowherd, or the people behind him, had taken advantage of this period of time to crack the method that contained the magic power, and turned this method into an evil method to steal people's magic power.

After peeling off the hide of the old cow, the cowherd put it on himself and wrapped it around himself. Then, he, a mortal, immediately possessed the body of Taiyi.

"My wife, you also promised me that you would raise the child together. How can you run away?" The cowherd looked up at Donghua who was going away, and immediately a cloud rose up. The hut where the couple lived also turned into a small basket. In the basket, there was a child on each side.

"You bastard!" The bull demon was skinned and his body was taken away, but he was not dead yet. He just raised his horns with his bloody body and charged towards the cowherd.

Although the cowherd was not knocked over, the two baskets containing the children were hung on his corners, one on the left and one on the right.

Then, the old cow took a deep breath and staggered in another direction with the two children.

The cowherd looked at this scene and wanted to chase after the old cow, but then he thought that Donghua who was going away was more important, so he gave up the old cow whose power was taken away, and then transformed himself into the appearance of two children and chased after Donghua.

"Donghua Immortal, please return my lady Xiaoqi to me!" The cowherd shouted loudly while chasing.

The face of the immortal Donghua who was in the front was ashen at this moment - because he noticed that when the cowherd caught up with him, an extremely mysterious ritual fell on the Seventh Princess, and then followed the Seventh Princess and pressed on the body of the immortal Donghua, making his escape light slower and slower.

"I've fallen into a trap!" Feeling the entangled rituals and looking at the cowherd who suddenly turned from a mortal into Taiyi, Donghua understood that this matter was a conspiracy from beginning to end.

Including bringing the seventh princess back by himself, the intervention of Ao Bing, the Lord of Punishment, and the old cow who was deceived, they were all calculations!
From the moment the Seventh Princess was targeted, she had become a part of the ritual.

——It’s a pity that the old cow was not only inexplicably involved in the incident, but also had his own skills and life taken away by others.

However, no matter how Donghua thought about it, he couldn't figure out what kind of ritual this was.
"If you can't figure it out, don't think about it."

"But since you, the cattle herder, are no longer a mortal, why should I worry about you?"

"Come and die!" Donghua stopped and the sword in his hand suddenly shone brightly.
