Chapter 703: Chapter 703

Bull Demon King regained his senses, tightly hugged the Jade-faced Fox, and laughed heartily, saying, "Being immortal should mean that it’s none other than me."

Below the Primordial Saint, the two safest identities are the mount of the Saint and the Saint’s Disciple, both representing the face of the Saint. Even if the Saint faced an enemy, they would not strike at the Saint’s mount or Disciple. From this perspective, this also counts as being immortal.

The Jade-faced Fox gazed up admiringly at the Bull Demon King and said softly, "My King, do you know where Tang Sanzang might be? I, too, wish to see if Tang Sanzang has three heads and six arms, to the extent that the Primordial Great Powers fight fiercely over him."

Where might he be? Naturally, he’s with my obedient son, but my son, fearing he might implicate me, is currently busily contending with Buddhism along with Tang Sanzang, enduring hardships. What I must do now is take over the pressure, create a realm of Heaven and Earth for my dutiful son, and let him know that his father can protect him.

"There’s no need to look for him; I’ve hidden him in a very safe place. Once I’ve dealt with Sun Wukong, I’ll bring him here so you can have a good look."

The Jade-faced Fox chuckled and said, "Thank you, My King. I’ll be waiting for your good news."

"Bull Demon King, Old Sun is back. Hurry and bring out my Master," sounded a loud call from outside.

Within the cave mansion, the Bull Demon King patted the Jade-faced Fox’s behind, and she promptly stood up with understanding.

"You wait here in the cave mansion and have the subordinates hide in the Sky Scraping Cave. I’ll go out and meet Sun Wukong."

The Jade-faced Fox spoke in a gentle, concerned voice, "My King, please be sure to stay safe!"

The Bull Demon King’s spirits lifted, and with a deep and steady gaze, he said, "This time we’ll stir up a real commotion!" Reaching out, the Mixed Iron Stick on a nearby weapon rack suddenly flew into his hand, and he strode toward the outside.

The smile on the Jade-faced Fox’s face faded, and she called out, "Black Panther!"

In a dark corner, a shadow began to stir, like a pool of ink welling up. ᴛʜɪs ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀ ɪs ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ʙʏ novelFirｅ.net

The flat shadow surged upwards, twisting and forming into a distinct figure, revealing a pitch-black panther that stood upright and walked out of the darkness, kneeling before the Jade-faced Fox, and respectfully said, "Greetings, my lady!"

The Jade-faced Fox bent down, revealing a large expanse of snow-white skin.

The Black Panther glanced over, promptly bowing down. Though his expression could not be seen, one could sense his extreme nervousness.

The Jade-faced Fox leaned closely to the Black Panther’s ear, blowing a breath of sweet fragrance.

The Black Panther shuddered all over, his body turning soft and numb.

The Jade-faced Fox giggled twice, then softly said, "Black Panther, among all these little Demon Kings, you treat me the best. Would you do me a favor?"

Black Panther spoke in a deep voice, "I am willing to do anything for the Princess."

"You’re so good to me, Brother Black Panther!"

"Please instruct me, Princess."

"I heard that the son of the Bull Demon King captured Tang Sanzang, but he hasn’t brought him to Jilei Mountain. I suspect the Bull Demon King has given Tang Sanzang to that wench. Would you help me retrieve Tang Sanzang?"

Without hesitation, the Black Panther said, "I will head to Cuiyun Mountain right away."

The Jade-faced Fox expressed her concern, "Be careful, Brother Black Panther! That wench’s cultivation is not mediocre."

Black Panther felt a surge of warmth in his heart and resolutely said, "My lady, rest assured, even if she detects me, nobody will know that this matter is related to you."

The Jade-faced Fox stuck out her little tongue and lightly touched the Black Panther’s ear, giggling, "Black Panther, you treat me the best. I’ll be here waiting for your return."

The Black Panther’s silhouette instantly melted, clinging to the ground like a shadow and swiftly flowing outwards.

On the other side, Bull Demon King strode out of the Sky Scraping Cave, standing at the entrance, he could see a golden cloud suspended opposite, within which stood Sun Wukong and his two brothers.

Sun Wukong was carrying the Jingu Bang, and chuckled, "Brother Niu, you’ve had our Master Tang visit for a while now. Shouldn’t you return him now?

Master has his duties and cannot stay for long; once we finish obtaining the scriptures, we will visit again. The Buddhas of Western Buddhism are already anxious."

Bull Demon King’s gaze wavered, quickly understanding Sun Wukong’s implication. Returning Tang Sanzang now would mean pretending as if nothing happened; otherwise, Buddhism would come knocking. But now, it’s not a question of whether I want to return him. Red Boy is hiding and seeking in the effort to make an offering for his father, and how could I as a father shrink back?

Carrying the Mixed Iron Stick, Bull Demon King laughed heartily and called out, "Sun Wukong, what nonsense are you spouting? I went to great lengths to capture Tang Sanzang, why would I possibly return him to you?"

A hint of urgency flitted through Sun Wukong’s eyes, and at the same time, irritation rose in his heart. ’How can this Old Niu not understand the current situation?’ he shouted, "Old Niu, if you refuse to return him, don’t blame me for being merciless."

Bull Demon King laughed and said, "What can you do? Have you forgotten who turned tail and fled last time?"

"Last time was because I, Old Sun, hadn’t eaten my fill, and was weak in the limbs.

This time it’s different; not only have I eaten my fill, but I’ve also brought along three helpers."

"Namo Amitabha Buddha~" The magnificent chanting of the Buddha’s name began to resonate between Heaven and Earth.

A burst of Buddha Light shone, and within it, three Buddhas appeared amid the Sanskrit chanting that echoed around.

Bull Demon King looked serious and shouted, "So you are the reinforcements the monkey called for? State your names first."

"Western Heavenly Spirit Mountain Golden Light Buddha has met the Bull Demon King!"

"West Heavenly Spirit Mountain Green Light Buddha has met the Bull Demon King!"

"West Heavenly Spirit Mountain White Light Buddha has met the Bull Demon King!"

The Buddha Light dispersed, and the three Buddhas’ figures solidified, appearing Between Heaven and Earth.

Bull Demon King suddenly widened his eyes, gripping the Mixed Iron Stick more tightly, his gaze fixed on the three figures in the sky.

Golden Light Buddha said gently, "Mr. Niu, long time no see."

Bull Demon King somewhat bitterly said, "Golden Light Immortal, Qiu Shouxian, Lingya Immortal, I didn’t expect Dubao would actually send you out, you really think highly of me."

Green Light Buddha said gently, "Would Mr. Niu kindly release the Sutra Taker, lest we ruin the old friendship."

Sutra Taker, Bull Demon King’s spirit rallied, Mixed Iron Stick in hand pointing directly at the four Buddhas, he said solemnly, "If you want the Sutra Taker, you have to defeat me."

Above the clouds, Sun Wukong with a twist of his eye, whispered, "It seems they know each other!"

Zhu Bajie also whispered, "Bull Demon King has been claiming his territory on the Western Continent for ten thousand years, it’s not strange that he has had interactions with Buddhism, they’re probably old friends!"

Sha Wujing also whispered, "Elder Brother, Second Brother’s words make sense."

Ling Ya Immortal floated down and said, "Since Mr. Niu refuses to release him, I shall take him myself."

Bull Demon King laughed heartily, with great spirit he said, "Good! Let me see how much skill you’ve learned in Buddhism." With a stomp on the ground, thump~ the mountains trembled, and he charged upwards, aiming the Mixed Iron Stick directly at Ling Ya Immortal.
