Chapter 594: Chapter 594
Kuimu Wolf was taken aback, transforming into a young man with wolf-like features, his Star Lord Robe quite dazzling.
"Senior Sister, are you saying she only likes my appearance?"
Jin Ling shook her head.
"Does she also like your status and cultivation?"
Jin Guang bluntly said, "What she likes is the benefits of being with you. When you transform into the Yellow Robe Demon, what can you offer people? Fear and disgust?"
Kuimu Wolf's head buzzed, feeling a greater blow, realizing that the true love he sought didn't actually like him for who he was!
"No!" (Snowflakes drifting, north wind howling~~.bgm)
From then on, there was another person in this world hurt by love.
Returning to the Heavenly Court, Jin Guang took Kuimu Wolf to the Jade Emperor, went through the process, and sent him to Doushuai Temple to tend the fire for the Lord. There was no choice but to come; the Lord's household boy and the cow had both left, desperately needing manpower!
Jin Jiao and Silver Horn have never forgotten their sworn brother Jin Can who once fought Tianpeng together. Recently, hearing that he needed to face eighty-one tribulations to report to the Lord, the brothers took things and descended to the mortal realm.
Whether they truly wanted to help or just wanted to have fun, it's about a fifty-fifty split.
The Lord didn't say much about this. Firstly, he did support the journey to obtain scriptures, and a gesture was appropriate. Secondly, wasn't it just pampering his two boys?
Let them go down and have fun; it won't take too long anyway.
On the journey west in the mortal realm, at Pingding Mountain's Lotus Cave.
Jin Jiao and Silver Horn had already gathered a group of little monsters to rule the mountain and specially visited Tushan to see the Golden Palace Empress. Perhaps all elders have a mysterious affection for children, as the Golden Palace Empress even split off an avatar to play with the two.
At this time, Silver Horn didn't use his child-like form but continuously wore the armor gifted by Nezha, as he felt his original appearance wasn't imposing enough.
"Brother, when will Jin Can Zi arrive?"
Golden Horned King was similar. Initially, their handsome and mighty armor alone frightened the little monsters into surrendering immediately, delighting the two who had been tending the boiler above.
If they revealed their true forms as two little kids now, how could they mingle with the demons in the future?
"Don't worry, brother. When I came, I secretly took a look at Jin Can Zi's current appearance. I'll draw it later and let the little monsters know to look out while patrolling."
"Hehe, Brother is always so smart. Here, let's have a drink to Brother!"
Their facial armor transformed, revealing their mouths, and they drank heartily, laughing joyfully.
At Doushuai Temple, they could only sneak a few sips; how could they indulge like now?
Those outside would break their heads to get in; those inside wanted to get out. Isn't Doushuai Temple just a castle in itself?
"Brother, you didn't bring the wrong treasures when you left, did you? Jin Can our brother is still mortal; what if we used the real stuff and ended up killing him?"
"Our brothers' reputation would truly be ruined then. How could we mingle in the future?"
Golden Horned King placed the Jade Purifying Bottle, Purple Gold Gourd, Palm Leaf Fan, and Seven Stars Sword on the table and said, "Rest assured, brother. I have left things unfinished when crafting these few items."
"Being absorbed by the Jade Purifying Bottle and Purple Gold Gourd only feels like you're dissolving, but you won't be harmed. As long as you don't inject mana into the Seven Stars Sword when using it, it shouldn't be a problem either."
"Finally, the Palm Leaf Fan only blows people away. I heard that Xuanzang's disciple Sun Wukong can somersault 108,000 miles in one go, so we'll just fan towards him when the time comes."
The Silver Horned King immediately burst into laughter.
"Hahaha, Brother's considerations are indeed thorough!"
Golden light flickered beneath the Qingyang Fusang Tree on the East Sea Three Immortal Islands. Yunxiao sensed it and quietly came to guard under the tree. It wasn't long before the branches parted, revealing a piece of Five-Colored Divine Stone inside, and the Divine Stone shattered with Sun Wukong leaping out once again.
The monkey was now completely restored, no longer in his former pitiful state. The entire Monkey God was energetic, as if reborn. The breakthrough and establishment pushed Sun Wukong's cultivation one step further, almost touching the Golden Immortal level.
Sun Wukong's talent was extraordinary. After the Witch Demon War, he was the most gifted and fundamentally strongest creature, second to none. Yang Jian's talent was also strong, but honestly, he couldn't quite compare to Sun Wukong.
The timing and momentum mattered.
Yang Jian could only be considered a major character in the Sealing God Battle, but in Journey to the West, Sun Wukong was the absolute protagonist, despite having many forces supporting his emergence.
But relying on his strength and courage, he firmly established a reputation as the first demon renowned for eternity.
After leaping out of the stone again, Sun Wukong felt his mana surge. Looking up, he saw Yunxiao in a full Emperor Robe watching him.
Originally wanting to celebrate, he suddenly became docile. Unknowingly, Yunxiao always had a mysterious aura about her. To describe it,
it was somewhat like the feeling of being caught lazing around by Master Puti when studying on Fangcun Mountain.
"Eh hey, greetings to the Emperor. Why did First Brother send me here?"
Yunxiao gazed at Sun Wukong and for some reason always recalled her third sister, both with similar cheeky grins and impenetrable demeanors.
"Great Saint belongs to metal, and to heal he needs nourishment from earth and wood. Therefore, your First Brother sent you here. Now that the Great Saint is fully restored and his cultivation greatly advanced, hurry back and protect your master."
"Hehe, thank you, Emperor. Next time I'll definitely visit to express my gratitude!"
With that, he rode off on his Somersault Cloud, flying west.
Sun Wukong was eager to return, speeding all the way to meet Xuanzang and the others near Pingding Mountain.
From afar, Sun Wukong started shouting.
Xuanzang seemed to sense something and halted the White Dragon Horse.
"Wengong, Wujing, did you hear Wukong's voice?"
Zhu Bajie, leading the horse, grumbled, "Master, you've missed the First Brother too much. Why didn't we hear his voice? Isn't that right, Brother Sha?"
Sha Wujing, dazed, also listened carefully.
"Yes, Master, we also miss the First Brother, but how fast could he have healed?"
Xuanzang, hearing their words, felt he might have misheard, whispering a few 'I wonder how Wukong is doing,' and then continued on.
Sun Wukong was overhead by then, observing everyone's reaction, and warmth stirred within him. Besides his troop of monkeys, he realized it was his master and brothers who cared most about him.
Sun Wukong, created by heaven and nurtured by the earth, secretly longed for affection. Otherwise, why treat the Golden Phoenix egg as his sibling, giving it the title of Second King in Shuilian Cave?
"Master, Master, I've truly returned."
Sun Wukong appeared, and Xuanzang hesitated to believe it. He rubbed his eyes intensely.
"Wengong, Wujing, seems I'm overly concerned. I see our First Brother ahead."
Zhu Bajie and Sha Wujing burst into laughter.
"Master, here he is in front of you, why don't you recognize him?" This update ıs available on novel·fire.net
Hearing that, Xuanzang quickly dismounted, and the master and disciples reunited once more.
Despite their flaws, they acknowledged each other, feeling content while resuming their westward journey.
The four traveled on with satisfaction and soon reached Pingding Mountain.
Xuanzang saw the steep Pingding Mountain and couldn't help but worry.
"Wukong, in these wild mountains, there might be ravaging demons, monsters like tigers and wolves."
The recent trials had truly frightened Xuanzang. His eldest disciple even claimed to be the Great Sage Equalling Heaven who once wreaked havoc in the Heavens, yet nearly lost with just two moves.
He couldn't understand if the demons along the journey were too strong or if his disciple was exaggerating.
Though he knew Sun Wukong was arrogant, he wasn't a boaster and couldn't fathom why the demons on the journey west were terrifying enough to overwhelm Wukong.
Being that capable, why just rule mountains? Don't they have bigger aspirations?
Form a group to attack Heaven Palace, ascend to Immortalhood, become ancestors, isn't that better than lying in wait to devour my flesh?
