Nezha, upon assuming his position, was immediately faced with the dead souls from the battlefield of both sides, gaining some insight into the current situation up above.
There was only one feeling: pure absurdity.
He connected with his Heavenly Court doppelgänger on the spot, utterly speechless—how did Li Tang and the Empress even manage to get involved?
But since things had already escalated to this point, Nezha could only go with the flow. He thought for a moment: "Might as well coast through this for now. Worst case, I'll throw my lot in with West Zhou and snag myself at least a Lord's title."
As for worldly power, Nezha actually didn't care much about it. Once you're chasing the Dao, what does royalty matter?
Just make sure not to play yourself—it's fine as long as you don't get dragged down with them.
After some thought, he decided to dispatch the thoroughly subdued Yuan Hong, Jin Dasheng, and Dai Li—the Three Demons—to guard the Three Mountains Pass.
